I have the Samsung Captivate and I'm totally new. I'm having problems opening my email attachments (pdf and xls). I found this thread, but I'm still confused. I can't seem to find "open unknown apps" nor "Unknown Sources" in my Settings.

I want to open a specific type of file that my app can already send over email as an attachment. I need to be able to have the android email app choose my app to download or open that specific file type. I can't figure out how to set up an intent filter that would let me do that though. Anyone know how this is done?

Anyone know how to fix this?
Sorry if this has been asked before. Does anyone know when downloading a attachment in email and when completed, you decide to open instead of saving to SD card - does the attachment automatically delete? Or does it get installed into the main memory? If so, how do we delete unwanted attachments?

public static void sendFile(Context context) { File exportDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "mydir"); if (!exportDir.exists()) { exportDir.mkdirs(); } String csvFile = exportDir + "/file.csv"; File file = new File(csvFile); if(file.exists()) { Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "CSV file"); sendIntent.setType("text/csv"); //sendIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION); //sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://" + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/mydir/file.csv")); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/ mydir/file.csv")); context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Send CSV file")); } else { Util.displayToast(context, R.string.no_csv_file); } }
I am trying to send an email using native email client on android phone. I have tried following ways to add an attachment to the mail.
Method 1 Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.setType("image/jpeg"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://sdcard/ abc.jpg"));
Method 2
Sending the image as body content
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "<HTML><BODY><b><IMG SRC= "data:image/jpeg;base64," + <imagepath> + ""alt = "pleaseview this image"/></b></BODY></HTML>");
I can successfully attach the image manually but when I tried to attach and send it programmatically the mail was sent without attachment.
how to send a zip file as an attachment of an email?

I'm creating an app that has an "export" feature which converts the user's data into a CSV file, and allows the user to send it as an attachment to somebody (presumably themselves).
The CSV file is created successfully, but when I try to send the email, I encounter a problem. The device looks like it is going to send the email with the appropriate attachment, but when the email is received... there is no attachment at all...
Here is the code I am using to send the email:
CODE:................
I have built a test android app and signed it successfully and then sent it to someone to test via email. They click on the attachment in the email on their android phone and get a parsing error.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just copy the code from http://www.openintents.org/en/node/121 to test if I can send .txt or .mp3 file as email attachment, Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.setType("audio/mp3"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, "file:///sdcard/mysong.mp3"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject"); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Title:"));
But I got an error said that No applications can perform this action. My android sdk is cupcake1.5, and I have already set up my gmail acount in Email application. Anyone knows why? If I set the type as "*/*"(sendIntent.setType("*/ *");), it can launch the Email activity but with no attachment.
I wanted to know what is the maximum size of the file that we can attach with email in android? Or is the attachment limit completely dependent on E-mail that we have configured?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHad the phone now two weeks. Got the upgrade to 2.2 from sprint succesfully. Enjoying the power of this machine for sure. I lurk here a lot and have learned tons for sure from reading, reading, reading sometimes till the wee hours. Three things I still can't seem to figure out. 1. Opening an attachment in an email: When a pic or doc file comes in I can't seem to view it. I click "view attachment" it shows the name of the file and the size but does not open the file or download it for me to see. What am I doing wrong? Some kind of settings issue maybe? 2. Deleting a file: I downloaded a pdf file off the internet and now I wish to delete it. Menu does not show an option to delete when I am viewing thde file with pdf viewer. Any ideas? 3. Voice email: I love the voice texting, voice emailing, etc but when I open an email to compose new and use the speak option to speak the name of a current contact (who has an email as part of his contact info) it does not try to auto fill that like it would if I hand texted it in. In other words, say I begin a new email and in the TO box I click the microphone and speak john smith. It types his name in but does not recognize him from contacts and fill in his email address like it does if I start to type j o h n s m by hand. I must be doing something wrong here too maybe?

(I have a ZTE Blade running Android 2.3.7 on a Cyanogenmod ROM 7.10.)
I have two questions.
- what is the maximum permisable file size for attachments;
- can the file size limit be increased in anyway?
I cannot send an email with an attachment using the Gmail app on this phone. I tried to send three different photographs to three different email addresses and it failed every time. Emails without attachments go perfectly every time.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to setup a part of my application that allows users to send a quick email to another user. It's not very hard to set this up:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
Intent mailer = Intent.createChooser(intent, null);
startActivity(mailer);
However, the problem is that the ACTION_SEND is accepted by more than just email programs - for example, on my phone the Facebook app, Twitter, reddit is fun, and even Bluetooth come up as viable alternatives for sending this message. The message is entirely too long for some of these (especially Twitter). Is there a way to limit the chooser to just applications that support long messages (such as email)?

View 6 Replies View RelatedOne of my 'must-haves' is the ability to open any kind of attachment that comes in with an email (.doc, .docx, .xls, .ppt, .jpeg, etc.) I was assured the Ally could with the application docs-to-go. I am now finding that it's a hit and miss with opening files. Files that have the .doc extension will come up and say 'can't open this video'.
