Getting unseen count for MMS messages in Android

I'm trying to get a count of unseen mms message which I've got a content observer triggering when the mms/inbox changes..

This is the cursor

Cursor cursor = localContentResolverMMS2.query(Uri.parse("content://mms/inbox"), null, NEW_INCOMING_MM_CONSTRAINT, null, null); 

and NEW_INCOMING_MM_CONSTRAINT is:

String NEW_INCOMING_MM_CONSTRAINT = "(" + Telephony.Mms.MESSAGE_BOX + "=" + TelephonyProviderConstants.Mms.MESSAGE_BOX_INBOX + " AND (" + TelephonyProviderConstants.Mms.MESSAGE_TYPE + "=" + 130 // MESSAGE_TYPE_NOTIFICATION_IND + " OR " + Telephony.Mms.MESSAGE_TYPE + "=" + 132 + "))"; //MESSAGE_TYPE_RETRIEVE_CONF 

It fires fine when I get a new message, but when I try view the message in a messenger app such as google messenger or textra the "seen" status doesn't seem to change. I'd expect it to change to "1" (seen) from "0" (unseen).

Am I querying something wrongly?
