Whenever I start any Android Application, initially a black screen comes to the foreground for a split of a second and then the splash screen comes up of the Application. Can anyone let me know the way of avoiding it?

I am trying to get a slide down animation to work, and it seems to work except that it starts with a big black screen instead of the screen that was there. So I have layout1 and layout2. When I start the animation using ViewFlipper.showNext it puts a big black background over layout1 and then slides in layout2. If I use ViewFlipper.startFlipping() it slides in layout2 out as it is sliding in layout1 -- which is what I would expect.
My slide_down.xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromYDelta="0" android:toYDelta="100%"
android:duration="4000" android:detachWallpaper="true"/> </set>
My java code looks like this:
ViewFlipper vf = (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.DropDownList);
vf.setAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.slide_down));
vf.showNext(); or vf.startFlipping();
While opening my application from application launcher. Sometimes I am getting blank screen for long time (almost 3 min). If I perform some key events then I am getting ANR. Log is as follows.
I/ActivityManager( 57): Starting activity: Intent {
action=android.intent.action.MAIN categories ={android.intent.category.LAUNCHER} flags=0x10200000 comp={com.test/com.test.MyScreen} }
E/JavaBinder( 57): !!! FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION !!!
After this I am getting activity launch timeout and Idle timeout. Is there any design issue with my activity or problem with android environment.
in my app, I came into an Activity from the pre Activity's UI (such as:click a TextView which has added OnClickListener), like this way, after several times, I came into a deeper Activity. I left it for a while (such as left away) , when I came back ,I returned the Activity before the last Activity. then I got a black screen.

<activity android:name=".Index" android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:theme="@drawable/defaultimage">
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter> </activity>
Since I'm running ICS, I can no longer play GTA 3. The application shuts down after 3 seconds of cranking (black screen). This is not the version of Play store.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy aunt gave me a Samsung Galaxy S2 and everything was fine, except that it didn't let me register to the network. The next day it told me that it had to do an update so I did the update. After the update the home screen turned black and pressing the buttons didn't do anything. After a while an error pops up saying "application is not responding" and then the screen just stays black. The top bar works just fine and I can even go on the internet, play games, practically do everything. I did a factory reset by pressing Volume up + Home + Power 3 times already, but the only thing that changed is that the language turned into German.. the screen stays black. It had nothing to do with Rooting or Flashing, because I don't even know what that is.

I'm running a standard camera preview (i use the camera api demo as a reference).
When i hit the capture button, there is a black screen for a good 1/2 second until the captured image appears.
My question is how can i freeze the last image being previewed on the screen while i do the capture work ? I don't mind that the quality of the displayed image is not as good.
If i hit camera.stopPreview() -> that goes into the black screen which i don't want.
I installed my application through clicking run in eclipse. When I search for my application to start it and click on it I get the following error. Do I have to add some magic phrase to the manifest?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an image on a private file.
I read the file, create the drawable, and assign it to an ImageView.
The ImageView has WRAP_CONTENT so the size is automatic.
On 320x480 screens, the image looks good
But on screens with more resolution and high density 480x800 or 480x854 (N1, droid) , when the image is for example 150x150, I see the image as 100x100.
Of course it has something to do with the density but not sure how should I resolve this.
This is my code...
if I then inspect the size of the icon, android thinks the size is 100x100, when really is 150x150.
Looks like its reducing the image by the density.
Can anybody explain this and how to avoid this.
Is this possible? I have a free and a paid version of an application. From the FREE version I want to provide the ability to for the user to "PURCHASE" the paid version. I want to make it as simple as possible. I am thinking of Starting the market app and passing the identification of the PAID so that the Market app will take them right there. I am trying to make it as easy as posible. No searching etc. No I have no intent of doing the purchasing from within my app. I want to have them press [Get Paid Now] button and then I start the Market app which would then take them to my Paid Application in the store.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a call blocking application. It has 3 files:
1) class BlockMyCall extends BroadcastReceiver
2) class SimpleClass1 extends Service
3) PhoneBlock extends Activity
I start "PhoneBlock " Activity to call Service "SimpleClass1 ", which eventually calls "BlockMyCall" intended to block outbound calls (by setting result to "null").
I want to know if I can run the class1 from service without starting activity. If so , how?
I have created the meat and guts of my application but I want to add a different activity that will be the starting point (sort of a log-in screen).
Couple questions:
1) I have a fairly decent handle on how to switch between activities (based on this article: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7498) but I'm not sure how to go about creating a new one (with eclipse).
2) once I have a new activity created, how can I set it as the default activity of my application? I presume I could just change the name of the classes...but is there a more elegant way to handle that (maybe within the AndroidManifest.xml)?

View 15 Replies View RelatedI have a enable and disable button. When this button is enable, user can launch my application normally. But when the button is in disable state, I don't want to start the application, that is the launcher activity should not start, but the icon for application will be there.When we click on the icon for application to launch it should not start.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Service which tracks the location of the user. Currently, the Service boots when the application starts and stops when the application terminates. Unfortunately, if users keep the application in the background, the Service never stops and drains battery.
I would like the Service to stop when my application is not in the foreground. I was hoping the Application class would let me Override onPause and onResume handlers, but it does not have them.
Basically i want to start Notepad application in android from my application , can i do this in android using runtime.exec() method of RuntimeClasss and assign it to a process and kill the process later.

This was reported in the other thread about X8 Issues, but thought to start a new one to gather feedback from users. It's about the ''black screen'' freezing issue encountered by some users. I have had this several times since owning the phone for a few weeks, so it is a recurring issue. Problem: The phone hangs or appears to be shut down or become unresponsive suddenly. Pressing the hardware buttons doesn't help as the phone doesn't react at all. Solution: Take out cover and battery and restart.Observations: From my own observations, it's not actually a shutdown but a major freezing/hanging. Sometimes when it happens, I can still see vague shades of the display at an angle. After leaving the phone for a while in the pocket, the phone comes back to normal again. Not sure if this is true for all users with this problem. Anyway, gathering more feedback to see how prevalent the problem is, to evaluate whether I should take it to the SE service centre, or whether doing so will help at all.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are experiencing this strange problem. If I press screen off button When my activity is running, its again starting a new activity. If I press the screen off button again and unlock the phone, it again starts a new activity. So in total there are 2 new activities getting created for one screen off and on.
View 5 Replies View Related1) After I make a call, the screen goes black in a matter of seconds. I'm typically using a headset when I notice this. To end the call (or enter numbers in a call menu) I need to press the sleep button to get the screen to light up again. This is a pain in the a$$.I have the screen timeout set for 2 mins.
2) About once or twice a day the home screen will lock where I can't press anything. I need to reboot to fix.
Sometimes when I hit the screen/power button the screen will stay black and i can see the menu bar up top fine but all else is black. If I hit the home key then all lights up fine. Then sometimes Ill hit the button and it works fine.
