I recently added an activity to one of my apps, and made it the starting activity for the application and published an update. The update worked perfectly with no problems on my N1, but I'm getting emails from users telling me that the only way they can open my app is from their Downloads page in the Android Market app. I have no clue what could be causing this behavior.

I am just getting started with the Android SDK and I had a quick question. I am trying to set up a ListView with a rectangle of color on the left and then a bit of text for each row. I also want to make it so I can click each entry in the list and open a new activity to display some information (similar to the contact list).

I would like to open a custom dialog when someone clicks on a listview entry. That dialog will need to know the text that was clicked on in order to display additional information on that particular entry. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to accomplish that?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is the second time this has happened to me now. I changed the starting activity of my app, and put out an update, and now the icon on people's phone will not open my app. The only way they can open it is through the downloads section of their Android Market app, or if they uninstall and reinstall the app, causing them to lose ALL their data. I have no problem with updates on my N1, but every other Android phone has a problem with this. Why?

However, I am getting an unexpected result. When I receieve an SMS, the appropriate dialog activity comes up displaying the correct phone number and message, however there is a second activity behind it that is the 'default' activity in my program (it is what opens when i launch my application)
I do not want this second activity to come up. The quick reply activity should come up by itself over top of whatever the user was doing before.
The 'floating' activity:

i'am trying to load an url in background using the default browser. So the user can switch to the browser whenever he finished reading the current activity and the page is already loaded. Is there a way to fire an Intent (Browser) but stay in the original Activity? I'am aware of the FrameLayout approach with setting the visibilty but this is not possible with the default browser.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to develop an application with downloads the data at the background and update about the progress in the front.
I guess this can be achieved using services and activity and passing data in between the. But, what I need to do is even if I hit back button and then start the activity again. It should check if the service is running or not. If service is not running it should start one else it should display the data from running service.
Something like music player where music is played by a service at a background and activity displays the information. Even on browsing through other activities of the application or hitting back, state of the music player is maintained.

When views with different type have same id and screen orientation changes,
either java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.AbsSavedState$1 or java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State will occur. (depends on the view's order)
Because View.dispatchRestoreInstanceState() checks id only.
You may wonder why anyone would make views with different type to have same id.
But it can happen when you use tab activity.
Imagine you have tab activity with two children activity.
Tab1 is ListActivity and Tab2 is ExpandableListActivity.
Both activity have id of "@android:id/list" but the type of view is different.
This means we cannot use ListActivity & ExpandableListActivit at the same in one tab activity.

View 30 Replies View RelatedI need to pass a value back to the same activity and refresh the activity to generate new data. Can anyone please provide me some ideas/guidance on how to do it?
I had try using intent to call the same activity but it doesn't work. Here is the code which i tried to use intent code...
I have a notification that starts my activity and passes a messages using the intent's putExtra() function. The message is then displayed to the user in the activity's onCreate function. When the application is restarted due to a orientation change, the message is shown again as it is still in the intent's bundled data.
How can I remove the extra data?
I tried the following:
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
if (bundle.getBoolean("showMessage")) {
// ... show message that is in bundle.getString("message")
// remove message
bundle.remove("showMessage");
}
But the message will still be shown after the orientation changed, seems like the intent used is not the one I changed, but the original one. The only workaround I found is to save the showMessage additionally in onSaveInstanceState(). Is there another way? Or is this the way to go?
