Google's Messenger app not attach Image while send MMS

I'm unable to send MMS with image on Google's Messenger app. While some of the android device by default install this SMS app and for that when I send MMS using Intent than it's not working.

The problem is ToNumber and MMS content set but the image is not attach on this app.

Note: I already set the MMS APN setting on my devices,and i already check on multiple devices with same app like Samsung s4,Motorola G4 Plus.

This is my code currently I Used.

 String toNumbers = "comma seperated mobile numbers";

 if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) 
    {
        String defaultSmsPackageName = Telephony.Sms.getDefaultSmsPackage(getActivity()); 

        Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        sendIntent.putExtra("address", toNumbers);
        sendIntent.setPackage("com.android.mms");
        //Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(new File(getContext().getExternalFilesDir(""), "image.png"));

        File imagePath = new File(getFilesDir(), "images");
        File newFile = new File(imagePath, "image.png");
        Uri uri = getUriForFile(this, "packagename", newFile);

        File file = new File(contentUri.getPath());
        if (file.exists()) {
            //Do something
            Log.d("TAG","Exist");
        }
        sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
        sendIntent.setType("image/png");
        sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", getString(R.string.sms_body, HostName));
        if (defaultSmsPackageName != null)
        {
            sendIntent.setPackage(defaultSmsPackageName);
        }
        startActivityForResult(sendIntent, Constants.SEND_SMS_REQUEST);


    }
    else 
    {
        Intent smsIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        smsIntent.putExtra("address", toNumbers);
        smsIntent.setPackage("com.android.mms");
        Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(new File(getContext().getExternalFilesDir(""), "image.png"));
        smsIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
        smsIntent.setType("image/png");
        smsIntent.putExtra("sms_body", getString(R.string.sms_body, HostName));
        startActivityForResult(smsIntent, Constants.SEND_SMS_REQUEST);
    }

file_paths.xml

<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<files-path
    name="files"
    path="images/" />

</paths>

manifeast.xml

<provider
        android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
        android:authorities="packagename"
        android:exported="false"
        android:grantUriPermissions="true">
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/file_paths" />


    </provider>

file_paths.xml and manifest.xml are the same as in your code.

Create content uri:

File imagePath = new File(getFilesDir(), "images");
File newFile = new File(imagePath, "image.png");
Uri contentUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this, "packagename", newFile);

Check content uri: 

ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageview);
//Your image should be displayed
imageView.setImageURI(contentUri);

Create intent:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Text to send");
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, contentUri);
sendIntent.setType("image/png");

Solution tested on:

a) Galaxy S4, Android 5.0, Messenger ver: 1.9.036

b) Emulator: Nexus 5, Android 6.0, Messaging ver: 1.0.001
