I have a Activity called main. If I call Toast.makeText(this, "Hello World from main", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT); this works fine. However, for every other activity in my application, I cannot display a Toast. No exception, nothing in the Log but I don't see the Toast. Code...

Ok, I've tried two examples of AlarmManager- one from the commonsware website, and one from the manning website. The code I am currently working with is from the manning website : [http://unlocking-android.googlecode.com/svn/chapter8/trunk/SimpleAlarm/][1] There are two classes, AlarmReceiver and GenerateAlarm. Anyone have any idea why the toast will not display in the emulator? I was thinking that it was because I am located in the Eastern Time Zone and it uses UTC, but I have fiddled with different things and none of them seem to work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an IntentService that handles button callbacks from a widget. When the user presses a certain button, I want to display a Toast. I return from onHandleIntent almost immediately after doing Toast.show(), which in turn stops the service and kills its thread, which keeps the Toast from actually being displayed.
Can anyone suggest an easy way to get the Toast (or something similar) to display from an IntentService?
I looked for any information about onTap event processing for itemized overlays in this group. There is a lot of useful information but I could not find the answer to one question.
The tutorial by Mark Murphy on itemized overlays, http://androidguys.com/?p=1413
describes how to generate a Toast message whenever an onTap event occurs. In his case, the custom itemized overlay activity is included in the main activity. In my case, it is not. My custom itemized overlay activity is included in the application package as a public activity.
This means that the line Toast.makeText(NooYawk.this, items.get(i).getSnippet(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); will not work "as is".
I have had trouble in correctly identifying the context for the Toast. Attempts to use the main class' (the one calling the custom itemized overlay class) context have not worked. I would appreciate it if anyone could suggest how I could resolve this issue. Incorporating the custom itemized overlay class in the main class is not a desirable option.
Alternatively, I would appreciate any suggestions for generating a display of the title and/or snippet information for markers on a map.
The onTap event works fine (Log.i statements in the onTap method display the correct information for each marker tapped)
I am writing my own SMS application that will display a toast of my message once it arrive. Now is it possible to delete the message after the display of the toast, so that it will not go into the native SMS application?

I want to show a simple toast, when exiting an application. The problem is, that the toast is not shown. I assume it is because the acitivity is finished or because of System.exit(0), but I don't know how to solve it. Does anyone have a tip?
In my activity I have the following code...
I am currently working on my first app which grabs a ZIP from the internet and the extracts it to a certain location. Everything works great but I can not figure out how to show a Toast message when the extraction operation is done.
The code I am using for unzipping is:
Code:
package mmarin.test.download;
import android.util.Log;
import java.io.File;
[Code]....
As I said above, only issue is displaying a message that everything is done.
When using setDuration for a Toast is it possible to set a custom length or at least something longer than Toast.LENGTH_LONG?

I m a newbie to android development and i wanna know a right way to get notification as an activity instead of statusbar notification.

This may be a simple question but i am a beginner ,i need your suggestion on this. i have two Activities A1 and A2 .When i click the image on A1 screen i have to display progress bar until A2 screen appears(A2 activity has huge task to do).

I use the following code to pop up the soft input keyboard in my Activity
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imm.getInputMethodList(); imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED, 0); This displays the alphabetic keyboard. But I want to display the numeric keyboard. Please note I know that using setInputType() works when used with an Edittext or a TextView but I want to be able to display the keyboard without an input area such as an Edit Text and simply listen to the key presses on the keyboard. Can anyone confirm whether this is possible and if so how can it be achieved?
