Android :: Nothing Works After Reboot - No Service - Complete Force Close
Jan 4, 2010I've had my htc hero (sprint) for about a month and half now and there has been a major problem i've been dealing with that i cant seem to find a solution to anywhere. everytime i reboot my phone, it wont work after the reboot. i cant get service, only wifi works, i cant access system updates, cant access my phone dialer. nothing works that requires date or service.
what i've tried to do is go to applications manager and ive been able to delete all the data from the google apps. this actually gave my phone service again after reboot, but i was never again able to sync my phone with google. meaning i couldnt get my contacts back, no gmail, and no market.
what ive been doing is having to do a complete hardware reset each time where i would then have to reset up my google account and re-download all my apps, needless to say this takes a lot of time each time. everytime i reboot, or when the battery drains, this happens.
Android :: Does Pressing Back Always Cause Activity To Finish()?
May 10, 2010I've heard that pressing the back button will essentially cause the current Activity to finish(). Is this always the case? Seems like it would be with the way it pops the Activity off the stack.
The one situation I'm not so sure about is when the root Activity in a Task has back pressed. I'm currently experiencing a very weird effect, described as follows:
On loading my application, the first Activity is for initialization, and once it finishes, it calls my main Activity (a TabActivity). This first init activity has android:noHistory="true" set in the Manifest so pressing Back from my main Activity won't go back to that. It goes to the Launcher. When I click on my App in the Launcher a second time, the initialization activity loads again, and loads the main Activity when done. Almost immediately after, it loads a second instance of my main Activity. But ONLY after the Application has already been run once, and was exited by pressing BACK from the main Activity. It does it every subsequent time until I force quit the app or load a new version from the IDE.
Based on this, I am suspecting some kind of Activity instance is lying around and being reused, since it only happens on the second+ time I run the application (and exit with BACK -- using HOME just returns to the last state of the app, no big deal).
Android :: Service Stop When Pressing Back Button
Mar 19, 2010I created and binded a service in an activity and I would like to know how I can avoiding the android application to stop when I press the back button. When the back button is pressed the onDestroy method is called and I unbinded the service in this method. I try to prevent it by taking care of the back button event and manually call for onStop() method but it always called onDestroy after, why?

Android :: Don't Need Previous Activities Load On Pressing Back Button On First Activity
Jul 15, 2010When i leave my app after pressing home button and then re launch it from menus it behaves in a strange way.Sometimes it launches the same activity on which i pressed home button.But sometimes it launches the first activity of my app. One reason for this could be that whenever system has memory shortage it clears any activities existing in But the strange thing is if i press back button from first activity it takes me back to the same activity on which i pressed home button and all other previous activities are also there(like if i press back button again previous activities also exist.)I haven't set any launching mode for any activity in my app(like single instance etc).What i don't need is that previous activities load on pressing back button on first activity.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Pressing Home Or Back Buttons From Main Activity / Causes App To Stop Unexpectedly
Nov 13, 2010This is difficult for me to diagnose because the Log doesn't provide the offending code line that indicates what caused it.Running the app in the Emulator seems to work OK until I press Home or Back from the Main Activity. Using Back between the activities in the program seems to work OK, it only fails at the Main. I don't have the app finished yet so I haven't loaded it to a device yet.The Log says there was a null pointer exception so I would like to find why.The log points to the android routines (and I don't appear to have the source for those routines in the emulator-most but not all and these are refering to those I can't access). The log gives up at one point and says "11 more".It would be nice to see the remaining 11 in the hopes that one of them points to the line in my code that caused the offense.I'm looking for ideas on ways to find the error and hopefully cure it.

I thought for sure that clearHistory() would do it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHTC EVO 4G :: Contemplating EVO Root For WiFi Tethering And Complete - Ghost Back Up
Oct 13, 2010I have been contemplating rooting my Evo for some time for the reasons mentioned in the title. I have read rave reviews for WiFi tethering all over this forum and will definitely take advantage of it. Secondly, I have heard that when the Evo is rooted you can create back up, with Nandroid or Titanium, and it is a ghost/clone of the entire phone (settings, apps, app data/pointers, etc.). I have had to replace my phone a few times now for factory defects and it has caused tremendous pain to lose some of the app data that I had stockpiled in the 3 months since my last replacement. In the event of having to replace my phone again after rooting it, would I just have to root the new Evo and flash the last back up and ROM (stock or not) that I was using?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: How To Restore List Data / When Pressing "back" Button?
Mar 15, 2010My question is about restoring complex activity related data when coming back to the activity using the "back" button". Activity A has a ListView which is connected to Array Adapter serving as its data source - this happens in on Create(). By default, if I move to activity B and press "back" to get back to activity A, does my list stay intact with all the data or do I just get visual "copy" of the screen but the data is lost? What can I do when more than activities are involved? Let's say activity A starts activity B which starts activity C and then I press "back" twice to get to A. How do I ensure the integrity of the A's data when it gets back to the foreground? Prefs Manager does not seem to handle complex object very intuitively.

Nov 23, 2009I'm trying to guess why a user would report "Force quits every time I load" the problem does not occur for all users, especially not me.The system constructs a database when it first loads. I suspect that user's phone does not have enough memory.Questions: How can I verify that the system has enough memory to store a small database?
What else might cause a user's particular system to force quit on startup?Wrong answers or things I've tried thus far:The user's hardware is probably different than mine The user's software and available memory is likely different as well The data is already loading in its own thread, with a progress dialog showing
Android :: Way To Tell When Task Goes To Back Of Stack?
Mar 23, 2009Is there a way to tell when my task gets put on the back of the UI stack (user pressed "home" say?) I have some resources I'd like to free when not foregrounded. The lifecycle routines seem dicey to use to try and infer this. The "home" key does not seem to be passed to onKeyDown(), and moveTaskToBack() is never called by the system so I can hook it. I can poll the ActivityManager for running activities with my task id, but hard to find a good time to call this.

May 12, 2010I need to launch the Browser from my application (cannot do the WebView - it has to be browser), and once I'm done with the browser, is there a way to close the Browser and the user back to the application programatically?
The problem is that user will probably press back or home keys to get out of the browser - back key will not work, and home key will put Browser and my app in the background.
I hopped that a button in the HTML displayed would close the browser but it seems like the Android seems to ignore that. Can anyone help?
Android :: Prompt User To Save Changes When Back Button Is Pressed
Mar 17, 2010I have an activity that contains several user editable items (an EditText field, RatingBar, etc). I'd like to prompt the user if the back/home button is pressed and changes have been made that have not yet been saved. After reading through the android documentation, it seems like this piece of code should go in the onPause method. I've tried putting an AlertDialog in the onPause however the dialog gets shown and then immediately tears down because nothing is there to block the pause from completing.
