Android :: Launch Activity At Certain Time
Dec 28, 2009I'm new to Android development, so I might be missing something obvious. I want to launch an activity when the user's phone clock hits a specified time (similar to an alarm). However, I'm not sure how I would go about doing this as constant polling of the clock seems inefficient and a waste of resources. Do I need to capture broadcast events from the lclock, or use PendingIntents?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid : Need To Calculate Time Elapsed - While Developing Game
Jun 4, 2010So I've been struggling with this and I am not sure why because it should be simple, but for some reason I just can not get my head around it !!
I am developing a game and when the user saves their game, I write out the last time I checked their stats using System.currentTimeMillis(). Then when they load in the game I want to see how many total seconds have elapsed since it was last saved. Naturally I thought of getting System.currentTimeMillis() and then deducting my saved value and then converting that into seconds using this :=
long timePassed = System.currentTimeMillis() - lastCheck; int seconds = (int) ((timePassed / 1000) % 60);
But on each load the seconds keep altering, but not within the right bounds. For example on one load it comes as 59 seconds, then it showed 23 seconds etc. Obviously my algorithm is slightly wonky but I can't work out why.
Could some one please elaborate where I am going?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Launch Activity Without UI?
Apr 24, 2010Is it in any way possible to launch an activity from the main function without having a UI? i.e. is there a way to create a sort of "wrapper" around another activity, i.e. by launching the main activity, it takes you to another activity automatically. If that is not possible, is there a way to remove the main activity from the stack so that clicking the back button does not take you to a blank UI?
Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:
public class WrapperActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL, Uri.parse("tel:555-1212"));
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Android :: Way To Launch Browser?
Nov 11, 2009I am trying to create a widget that, when clicked on, launches the browser and goes to a particular URL. Unfortunately, I have had a lot of problems.

Then, using the code from another Groups post (http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/ 11e54b1df3a4d279), I tried to convert it to open the browser instead. Here is my (non-working) code...
