Android :: Display Droid Dialog Out Of Application?
Sep 7, 2010
I 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?

Yes 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 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 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?

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?

I 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.

I was wondering if anyone can tell if how to pop a dialog screen up over a native Android screen? I currently have an application that traps an outgoing call and stops it, I then want to pop up a dialog that would take over from the dialler screen and alert the user that there attempt to call has been blocked and allow them have some new options from the dialog.

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).

Ideally, I do not want to start an activity to do this. When the WiFi connection is lost, my app needs to close because this is a fatal error for us. I want to display an error message and have the user press an Ok button and then exit the app. What is the best way to go about this?

I've had the same app - solitaire installing for a couple of weeks. I've shut down the phone, didn't help. Pulled the battery didn't help. In applications, manage applications, I've uninstalled it but it's still there saying installing. What do I do now? I don't want to do a factory reset. Had to do it once and that was enough.

In the Messaging app in 2.2 when I'm in a thread it shows a pic of me and a pic of the other person next to every text sent and received. In the 2.1 app it simply showed my name and the other persons name; no pic of us next to every text. Is there anyway to disable showing the pics in the 2.2 app? Really don't see the need to have a pic next to each text.

Is there a setting on the Droid (or an app) to change how the text messaging display looks? I dont care much for the text bubbles in the chat log and would prefer just a simple list.

For some of the albums/songs it says Unknown Artist but when I look at the files they are all in the proper folders with correct names. I added music using DoubleTwist if that helps.

I am trying to initiate a progress bar when my application starts. The way my application works is that it collects info from the db that takes around 5 to 6 secs where the screen is completely black. I am trying to initiate a progress dialog that gets triggered WITHOUT a button click or any other UI interaction but just when the user starts the application. All the previous posts handled something with handlers and UI interactions.

I am trying to write an application which works like described below.When user start application it check if user have registered PIN on his device.If user have registered PIN, application must show button "Continue with PIN".When user press on button "Continue with PIN" system standard PIN dialog must appears.User enter his PIN and press "Continue" button.After System must check if entered PIN is correct or no and continue working.
I have made some researches and find some articles on stackoverflow and other internet sources which say "There is no way to develop a new custom unlock mechanism on a non-rooted phone." or "I would be surprised if you could, because then you would be probably able to steal the pin code, and I don't think anyone would want that.".
Also I have watched some video tutorials like Tutorial: Android Internals - Building a Custom ROM, Pt. 1 of 2 and Tutorial: Android Internals - Building a Custom ROM, Pt. 2 of 2.
Decision:So I think that the only way to get access to the Android system PIN dialog is to root the phone make some changes in the system files and use system PIN dialod
getting access to the system PIN dialog in the rooted phone.
