Android :: How To Restore List Data / When Pressing "back" Button?

Mar 15, 2010

My 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.

Android :: Don't Need Previous Activities Load On Pressing Back Button On First Activity

Jul 15, 2010

When 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.

Android :: Loading New Data With Back Button

Apr 10, 2009

I have a message application so that on view 1 is displayed a list of messages and when you go to view 2 (subactivity) you can send a message. I want the program to work so that when you hit the android back button, you can go back to view 1 and see the list of messages including the new message. Right now only the old data is displayed, and I noticed that displayContent() is not called when going back which I assumed it would. Is there any way to specify that when the back button is hit, to call displayContent() again on the previous activity?

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Back Up Restore Failed On Restore Function

Nov 18, 2010

Anyone else had abny issues with the back up restore function? I tried to do a software update, to which something seems to have happened. All i can see for the time being is an update to the virtual keyboard. Anyway, lost apps, contacts etc, so went into the menu on the handset and selected back up, restore. Restored numbers etc to phone book and over 150 number details are missing. The back up utility doesn't seem to have backed up all my numbers. Also, any personal photo's of callers etc have either vanished or the photo's are now against the wrong people. So much for this back up service, it's going to take hours, if not days to try to get the phone back tot he way it was!

Android :: Avoid Side Button Pressing?

Mar 11, 2010

I use my phone as an audio player while outside with a bluetooth headset. I have the phone in my pocket. However,it seems very easy for the side buttons to be pressed, even when the phone is locked. What do you all do for this? I have tried a couple things and did find a "solution", but it's not one that I like, and would appreciate hearing thoughts from others.

Android :: Does Pressing Back Always Cause Activity To Finish()?

May 10, 2010

I'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 :: Activity Which Downloads Data In Background With Service - Doesn't Get Destroyed On Hitting Back Button

Nov 9, 2010

I need to develop an application with downloads the data at the background and update about the progress in the front.

I guess this can be achieved using services and activity and passing data in between the. But, what I need to do is even if I hit back button and then start the activity again. It should check if the service is running or not. If service is not running it should start one else it should display the data from running service.

Something like music player where music is played by a service at a background and activity displays the information. Even on browsing through other activities of the application or hitting back, state of the music player is maintained.

Android :: Lock Screen Without Pressing Power Button

Oct 9, 2010

I have a pattern unlock on my Samsung Galaxy S 19000. If I want to lock my screen manually I simply press the power button briefly which works fine. I now use a skin on my phone which doesn't allow for easy access to this power button so I'm wondering if there's an app that I can use to lock my phone screen without having to press the power button. I have looked at "lock 2.0", however, it seems to be more for actually unlocking the screen.

Android :: Button Draws Normal State After Pressing

Mar 30, 2010

I'm new to Android and just starting the very basics. I implement my custom button skin using .9.png images for norma/focus/pressed states. It works fine, but I noticed that after a pressed the focussed button it visually "lost" focus and draws the normal state frame. I planned to use different state images to highloght what button is selected right now, but it seems that it would not work. I noticed also that the same happens with the default LAF button. Is it OK, or it's just emulator issue? What the good workaroud can be used?

I'm building a comic strip styled application and I'm trying to make "previous page" and "next page" buttons.

Right now, I have an image that spans 500 x 200 (not really, but it works). Over top of that image, I have two buttons equal to 50% of each side. When you click the left button, I want it to change the image to whatever-x. When you click the right button, I want it to change the image to whatever-y.

Android :: Pressing Home Or Back Buttons From Main Activity / Causes App To Stop Unexpectedly

Nov 13, 2010

This 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 just got the vibrant about a week ago, and so far no major issues. Still fumbling around in the apps market for the good stuff. One thing I found annoying was having to press the power/unlock button and then swiping the screen to unlock the phone every time, is there anything in the market or some setting to avoid pressing the button and just swiping the screen or possibly using the touch buttons on the front of the phone then swiping?

Samsung Moment :: Stop Pressing Mute Button By Hair Tends?

Nov 7, 2009

When I'm talking, my hair tends to press the mute button on the home screen and the other person cannot hear me. I've searched but can't find a way to make this stop. An app, a better phone-holding technique--I'll try just about anything. Also, for some reason I had a glitch the other day... I made a phone call, got my friend's voicemail, and then was unable to hang up the call. I ended up leaving a rather long, embarrassing voicemail message until I just went in and force stopped the dialer app, but at least my friend has a good sense of humor.

General :: Pressing Play / Pause Button On Headset Keeps Turning Phone On

Mar 26, 2014

Anyways, whenever i'm listening to music, and I press the play/pause button on my headset to control my music tracks, my phone turns on. This get's really annoying because every time my phone turns on, it stays on for a few seconds, and this really kills battery life. I've tried lurking around my phone's settings and even my launcher settings.

My phone is a rooted HTC Wildfire S running AOKP custom rom with Nova Launcher Prime. And if it makes any difference, I'm using the "Start" lock screen from the Play Store.
