Android Content provider list

Question

Where can I get the full list of Content Provider that Android offers out of the box?
Specifically, I\'m looking for a content provider that lists received

Answer 1

The content provider for SMS was removed from the SDK in Android 1.5. It was available in the earlier SDKs though.

Use these to get the required URIs

Uri.parse("content://sms")
Uri.parsr("content://sms/inbox")
Uri.parsr("content://sms/sent")
etc

Keep in mind that since these are undocumented they may change in the future.

For more details look at core/java/android/provider/Telephony.java in the android source code

Answer 2

The publicly available ones are listed in the android.provider package in the SDK documentation:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/package-summary.html

All other ones are undocumented, presumably for a reason. You are welcome to search the Android source code for those classes which extend ContentProvider, perhaps using Google Code Search. And, if you are working on improving the Android firmware, you can also make inquiries on one of the Android open source project lists to see how best for you to add in your specific desired capability.

Answer 3

You can use next line adb shell dumpsys | grep Provider{

Answer 4

You can use adb shell dumpsys > dumpsys.txt and search for "content providers" in that file. From that you can see the list
