I have developed an application which is working fine.
In that i have used some static variables and also set Application level variables.
My problem is that even after setting finish() on each activity, application is showing in Running mode.
After closing the application, when i start the application after sometime, it will set the last changes.
How can i destroy my application?

I am unable to completely destroy my app. My app is thread based app. Once i exit the app by calling on Destroy method, it is exiting properly. If i try to relaunch the application is says "The application stooped unexpectedly, try again". If i again select my app it is launching. It means in a alternative attempt its launching. as i am guessing, its not making Null for few static objects. once it shows the exception has explained above it is making all the objects null, so that i am able to relaunch. Pls can some one suggest how to overcome this issue. How to completely destroy the application?

I have created a threaded service the following way. code...
After I close the application the phone works really slow and I guess it is due to thread termination failure.
Does anyone know what is the best way to terminate all threads before terminating the application?
I've noticed that changing the background color of an android widget (f.ex. Button or TextView) by program:
myButton.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLUE);
makes it to loose its 3D shape, border, and shadows effects, and then appears like a ugly flat square. What am I missing?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an activity defined as below:
CODE:............
A strange thing is that, when running on emulator, and the back key is pressed, the activity was destroyed (I saw onDestroy() called in log). But when running on my Nexus One phone, and the back key is pressed, the activity is not destroyed (I didn't see onDestroy() called in log).
what puzzle me so much is that i can't destroy a GLSurfaceView while i don't want to exit the activity.
the fact is when i destroy a GLSurfaceView which had show in the screen (that means it has binded to the activity's SurfaceHolder), the activity exits without any prompting. Perhaps ,the Context which provided in the Construction of GLSurfaceView joins the two things together. so my conclusion is that a GLSurfaceView can only be destroyed when exit the activity. is there anyway to destroy a GLSurfaceView without exit activity? is there someone can provide a clue?
I have an Activity with an inner Handler. The problem is that after the activity is destroyed, the Handler is receiving messages for the destroyed activity. This breaks things because the activity is in an inconsistent state. I'm thinking this might be a bug in Android - it should probably delete all the messages in the queue when the activity is destroyed. There doesn't appear to be any way I can manually delete all messages in the queue (except by calling removeMessage(int what) with every possible variation of what, which seems a bit ridiculous). The only other solution I can think of is to create my own is_destroyed instance variable and check it in handleMessage(), but again that seems like a ridiculous hack. Has anyone come across this problem before?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a activity MyActivity, which "kills" yourself using the finish () method. The problem is: after the kill operation, method onDestroy is called, but the object of type MyActivity is never garbage-collected (I forced the GC run). It is causing a memory leak, because MyActivity is launched many times, by other activities. Does anyone know when the Activity object is supposed to be garbage- collected, and what can be done to avoid the issue I mentioned?

Now my question is is destroy and kill a process is different? cause if I open DDMS I can see same process is running..Only if I stop that process in DDMS then only it disappear. Is that process will take any memory space after pressing back button..

I would like to pausing or putting the application on background when pressing the back button, I don't want the application to go through the destroy state. Things are when I override onKeyDown and when I force to pause or stop the application by using onPause, I have some issuees with the wakelock and application crash, but when I press home button I go through onPause method and I have no exception, it's weird!
View 1 Replies View RelatedLike me, many of you are switching to the Incredible from another, older, less awesome phone. Some of you may even be moving to the Inc because you've had it with your current phone. But before you consider taking out your frustrations on your old phone by answering the age-old question, "Will it blend?", consider donating your phone. There are many organizations that will put your old phone to good use. Here in Raleigh, NC, an organization called Interact helps victims of domestic violence and will accept donations of used cell phones. You can also donate your phone to be used by troops overseas. So before you think of just throwing away a piece of technology, consider how it may benefit someone else.

I frequently run into the problem that I have to preserve state between several invocations of an activity (i.e. going through several onCreate()/onDelete() cycles). Unfortunately, Android's support for doing that is really poor. As an easy way to preserve state, I thought that since the class is only loaded once by the class loader, that it would be safe to store temporary data that's shared between several instances of an activity in a static Bundle field. However, occasionally, when instance A creates the static bundle and stores data in it, then gets destroyed, and instance B tries to read from it, the static field is suddenly NULL. Doesn't that mean that the class had been removed and reloaded by the classloader while the activity was going through a create/destroy cycle? How else could a static field suddenly become NULL when it was referencing an object before?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need third party applications ("Foo") to get information from my application ("Bar"), but my solution so far seems cumbersome:
Application Foo needs information from Bar and sends a broadcast ("bar.POLL").
Application Bar listens for this broadcast, and replies with another broadcast ("bar.PUSH");
Foo listens for bar.PUSH and reads the contents of the included Bundle.
Is there a more direct way to do this? code...
I am buiding an Android app, and I have a problem to get resource from string.xml.
I need to have an URL in String.xml that will be used several times through the app.
I tried Resources.getText("my_url"), but this does not work. Eclipse complains when I use this.
Do you think this is the best way to do ?
