How to remove all sms from Inbox programmatically in Android?

Question

I am working on an application in which I want to delete all SMS from the inbox. For this, I used the following code.

Uri uriSms = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox"); Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(uriSms, null,null,null,null); int id = c.getInt(0); int thread_id = c.getInt(1); //get the thread_id getContentResolver().delete(Uri.parse("content://sms/conversations/" + thread_id),null,null); 

This code does not work. Is there any way to do the same?

Answer 1

Delete uri "content://sms/" + id;

 Uri inboxUri = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox"); int count = 0; Cursor c = context.getContentResolver().query(inboxUri , null, null, null, null); while (c.moveToNext()) { try { // Delete the SMS String pid = c.getString(0); // Get id; String uri = "content://sms/" + pid; count = context.getContentResolver().delete(Uri.parse(uri), null, null); } catch (Exception e) { } } return count; 

Answer 2

 //delete all call logs Uri callLog = Uri.parse("content://call_log/calls"); int rs1 = getContentResolver().delete(callLog, null, null); //delete all sms Uri inboxUri = Uri.parse("content://sms/"); int rs2 = getContentResolver().delete(inboxUri, Sms._ID + "!=?", new String[]{"0"});
