you cant try with abd shell commands for ex:-
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{ your adb commands });
proc.waitFor();

You should use Context.startInstrumentation, instead of adb. For example, from your Activity, run

startInstrumentation(new ComponentName("com.example.aatg.tc.test", "android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner"), null, null);

Android Activity Crashing

Hi, I have used the below sample code downloaded from a website and it is crashing.

Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, textMessage);
sendIntent.setType(HTTP.PLAIN_TEXT_TYPE); // "text/plain" MIME type
startActivity(sendIntent);

Let me know the possible solution.
