Android and Facebook share intent

Question

I\'m developing an Android app and am interested to know how you can update the app user\'s status from within the app using Android\'s share intents.

This solution works aswell. If there is no Facebook installed, it just runs the normal share-dialog. If there is and you are not logged in, it goes to the login screen. If you are logged in, it will open the share dialog and put in the "Share url" from the Intent Extra.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Share url");
intent.setType("text/plain");

List matches = getMainFragmentActivity().getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);
for (ResolveInfo info : matches) {
    if (info.activityInfo.packageName.toLowerCase().contains("facebook")) {
        intent.setPackage(info.activityInfo.packageName);
    }
}

startActivity(intent);
