Android :: Renamed Packages / Now Activity Cannot Be Found
Oct 5, 2010So today I had a bright idea to rename my packages, now my android application which I have schedule for release on Thursday is not working.
I am getting a similar error as follows:
Error: Activity class {org.me.androidapplication2/com.albertrosa.DEMO.MainActivity} does not exist.
I have modified the manifest to reflect the change:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.albertrosa.DEMO"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0"
there is more to the manifest but this is all that I have changed. is there something I am missing or doing wrong. I am using netbeans to build this app.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Start An Activity And Return Back To Original Activity
Jan 26, 2009I have an application with contains multiple activities. The main activity will start the others ( use startActivity() ) depends on user event, when an activity close, it calls finish() and return back to main activity. It appears to behavior like that.
However, the "problem" I see is main activity's onCreate function is called every time. I think the the main activity should be placed in the activity stack and simply push to front when others exit, therefore only onResume, onStart are called. Is there some flag I need to set or I misunderstand the activity behaviro?
In child activity, besides calling finish() or startActivity for main activity, what is other way to move main activity to front?
Android :: Start Activity When Main Activity Is Running In Background
Jan 10, 2010I created an application which enables the user to set whether he wants to receive notification while the application runs in background mode. If the notifications are enabled an activity should be started (the dialog should appear on the screen).
I tried to enabled it the following way:
CODE:...........
This is the method from main activity. When onPause() is executed isRunningInBackground is set true.
When I tried to debug it when the main application was running in the background the line
startActivity(intent) had no effect (the activity didn't appear).
Does anyone know how to midify the logic in order to start an activity from the main activity when the main activity is running in the background (after onPause() is called)?
Android :: Start An Activity In Different Apk Using StartActivity - Using The Activity Name Or Similar
Apr 20, 2010I have tried to write an Android application with an activity that should be launched from a different application. It is not a content provider, just an app with a gui that should not be listed among the installed applications. I have tried the code examples here and it seems to be quite easy to launch existing providers and so on, but I fail to figure out how to just write a "hidden" app and launch it from a different one.
The basic use case is:
App A is a normal apk launchable from the application list.
App B is a different apk with known package and activity names, but is is not visible or launchable from the application list.
App A launches app B using the package and class names (or perhaps a URI constructed from these?).
I fail in the third step. Is it possible to do this?

Oct 23, 2009I have seen several applications that are free, but allow for add on packages to be installed. Gang Wars sells Respect Points Mafia sells Favors Dungeon Quest sells Gems The central game is a free app, but you purchase these add on apps for in-game benefit. Has anyone purchased one of these add on apps? What is the experience like? Do you have to leave the add on installed on your phone? How does this work technically? Do you think they set shared preferences? How would you handle the 24 hour uninstall rule? I am considering releasing a free game with 10 levels, but offering a full set of levels (say 25) as a separate paid app. I'm looking for the best way to accomplish this and thought the above might have some bearing.

Android :: How To Start An Activity
Sep 15, 2010I have created two classes: Example1 and Example2, which extends activity.
Example1 contains a UI of buttons, while Example2 contains UI of TextEdit.
I want to call Example2 when a button is clicked, so this code is in an onclick method
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setClassName("com.a.ui", "com.a.ui.Example2");
startActivity(i);
So I am able to get the UI of Example2 successfully.
What's an alternate way of calling intent?

Feb 21, 2010I am trying to make a PopupWindow show straight away when an activity has started.
when calling public void showAtLocation (View parent, int gravity, int x, int y)
I get the exception ERROR/AndroidRuntime(2500): Caused by: android.view.WindowManager $BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not valid; is your activity running?
At the moment I am calling from onCreate, but when calling from onStart or onResume it still gives the same error.
The activity api says the activity is supposed to be running after onResume is called. Where is the best place to load up the PopupWindow if it needs to be done straight away?
At the moment It looks like Activity.onWindowFocusChanged() is the best place.
