I want to display Dialog Box when the application is launched before loading and launching the activity.
or you can say I want to show the dialog on launcher after the launch of my application.
I am trying to display a dialog box in a simple Java class that is called from my main Activity but not successful. Please help me to figure it out.
I am passing the required values as parametrs.
I have two class: class MainActivity extends Activity :: Main *starting point *of Application class ShowMyDialog :: a simple java program In which I *generate an URl* and *display a dialog with WebView*.
I am passing the Acitivity from my MainActivity to this class as a parameter in function.
But I am *unable to call* the onCreateDialog method that I have *defined in the simple java class.
However, If I define the *onCreateDialog method in MainActivity, I am able to display it successfully.
What Should I pass as Parameter to the non Activity class from MainActivity class so that I am able to display the dialog as defined by showdialog method in JAVA class ???*
My steps of source code is as follow:

I need to display an alert message for no more than a half a second. As I understand it, Toast only has 2 available durations, with no way to alter them. Correct me if I'm wrong. Which leads me to sing the AlertDialog. What would be the best way of displaying a dialog for 500ms and then dismissing it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedYes I know there's AlertDialog.Builder, but I'm shocked to know how difficult (well, at least not programmer-friendly) to display a dialog in Android.
I used to be a .Net developer, and I'm wondering is there any Android-equivalent of the following? code...
I have a situation where I have a broadcast receiver which creates a notification and the notification, when selected, sends the application to a new Activity with a yes/no AlertDialog. I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to show an AlertDialog (from the notification) without sending the user to a new Activity? (This way the user can click No and resume working in any other application)
2. A ListActivity already exists in this application. If the user clicks yes the user should be send to this existing Activity. Currently I'm dong this from a new activity in the application using: startActivity(new Intent(this,MSPMain.class)); I believe this is making a new instance of the Activity rather than simply showing the existing Activity. Is there a way to show the existing Activity without making starting a new one?
Does anyone know if it's possible to get a Dialog box to display between activities? I've looked and haven't been able to find a solution.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a webview I'd like to display as a dialog. I'd like the webview to fill the entire screen, except for a button below it that I'd like to stay at the bottom of the dialog regardless of how much content is in the webview. Currently my webview fills up the dialog just enough to push the button off the screen. I'm sure this is something pretty easy but for the life of me, I haven't been able to find the magical combination of layouts, views and attribute values to get it to play nice. Just to be clear, I've gotten it so the button floats over the webview but I'd like the webview to stop just above the button and scroll, if that makes sense.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application that is designed to pop up a question when a phone call ends using a BroadcastReceiver and a PhoneStateListener.
My problem is, when a call is received while the user is not currently using my application, the dialog is not displayed until the application is manually started. I would like either for the dialog to be displayed on top of what ever context the user is currently in, or that my application will be focused.
How is this done?
So this is related to a question I asked earlier. I am trying to display an alert using a specified layout. My layout is:
And the code to call and show the alert dialog is..
When I run it I get an error saying:
Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception
android.view.WindowManager$NadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application
I've looked through the android development site and can't figure it out. I think I'm just missing something obvious but the fix isn't jumping out at me. How can I get this alert dialog to display?
I upgraded my Nexus One a few days ago with 2.2 (Froyo). This morning when I went to use it I saw a Dialog sitting atop the home/launcher screen notifying me that an update was available and that I could choose to upgrade now or later. My question is, what API mechanisms is this using to show a Dialog (perhaps an AlertDialog) atop the home screen? Having written an Android app, it was my understanding that Dialogs could only be shown atop an Activity, and that a Service cannot show a Dialog (only a Toast).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to intercept outgoing calls and pass them to a VOIP application. I see that the Google Voice application has a feature for displaying a question before each call is actually initiated. It provides the user with the choice:
Initiate call via Google Voice
Initiate call via standard call
I would like a way to do something similar with my application (so that not all calls have to be routed through it). At the moment, I can intercept CALL events via a BroadcastReceiver, however, these are not allowed to open dialogs (thus making it possible to display the choice).
What is the best way of achieving this goal?
I've a listView Activity where user could open a dialog to display more information about a line of the list. On the Dialog user could modify a line. So my purpose is to refresh listView when User modify it by the Dialog. The problem is that I couldn't use myArrayAdapter.notifyDataSetChanges() so How I could do that ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spinner selection box on my activity, but now I want to remove the spinner from the main view and make the selection available by an option from the menu button. How do I get the dialog the spinner shows if I click it without having the spinner? Currently I fill the spinner using a SimpleCursorAdapter like this:
Cursor c = db.fetchAllSets();
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, c, new String[] { DatabaseAdapter.SET_KEY_NAME }, new int[] { android.R.id.text1 });
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
mSetsSpinner.setAdapter(adapter);
So now I'm planning to remove the spinner from my activity, add a new button to the menu and in the onOptionsItemSelected(...) show a dialog with the list of available selection - just the way it is right now after clicking the spinner object.
this button is shown on my start activity. After pressing it a new activity will be launched but this takes some time cause on initialization of that new activity some data is gathered from the Internet. This works half. The progress dialoge is shown but the progress wheel is not spinning.
Can somebody tell me why this happens?

Now a dialog pops up from the UI in B, once i click the save button in this dialog it goes back to the TabActivity but the tab is set to 1, however i want to set the current tab to 2 once the dialog box closed.
