I have an application and i want this application should be listed in Setting screen and can be initiate from there as a separate process. How i can do the same.

Being interested in Android development and still in the experimentation phase - there's something I haven't been able to grasp. As far as I've been able to understand, the process lifecycle and application lifecycles are separate and as such, it would be possible for the application to still to exist, even if it's process has been killed. So I guess my question would be, in what scenario could this occur and how is the application accessible if the containing process has been killed?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need two activities run in different processes in the same application. Now I have made it work by specifying the different process name in "android:process". But I met a problem, from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-elemen..., we have only one superclass of Application will run before the activity starts(I have tested it, and each time a after new processes start, this Application(its superclass) will run before activity). But, my two activities have two different superclasses of Applications.
So, how to make Applications for different activities run for its corresponding activity? If there is no way to use different Application class for different activity, how can I make a flag for the common Application superclass to judge which process(by getting its name) is running? BTW, the two activities were on the separated development flow and I am trying to merge them.
Is it possible to initiate an outgoing call without having the phone invoke it's default dialing screen? The point is to be able to make a call without someone knowing I'm making a call.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn order to keep some native code happy, I need to launch an activity in a new process. Does anyone know how to do this?
I can set the activity's process attribute in the manifest, but this will cause *all* instances of the activity to appear in the *same* process, which I can't have.
I'm willing to use internal APIs for this, and I've found Process.start(), but it's not at all clear how this is supposed to be used.
I'm developing one of my first Android apps. I come from an ASP.NET world where it's trivial to have separate Web.config files for dev, test, and production. Does anyone have a good, automated way of doing this for Android via Eclipse?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy app is comprised of a set of reusable Activities that other apps can reuse. For various reasons, I would like my Activities to be launched in context of the invoking Activity's process, instead of always being launched in my Activity's process (default behavior on Android). How can I achieve this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedLast night I clicked a YouTube link sent by a friend through email. I got a notification window asking me if I wanted to open it in the browser or in the you tube App, along with a check box to always remember my answer. I picked one and hit the check box. Under the box it said if I wanted to change my settings to go to Home > Settings > Applications> Manage Applications to change the behavior.
However that specific menu item only contains apps I have downloaded. The YouTube app isn't there, and I had been coming up blank searching for where I can change the setting I chose last night.
When you go to Home > Settings > Applications> Manage Applications, by default its filter is set to just the apps you have downloaded, to see all apps on your droid, hit the menu button, and select filter, from here choose All to get to the app whose setting you want to change.
What's the best way to create a reusable loading screen in Android? The loading screen should have a background image and a loading indicator.
Should i use a separate activity?
... like "Swype settings" in this picture. Been searching for hours on how to do this. Going to go insane.

I like having the screen turn off quickly (since I believe power on/off for OLED is negligible) but it is annoying to have to constantly unlock the phone if I don't hit the power button within a second or so of the screen turning off.

However, I want to initiate HFP and A2DP connection in Android app just like selecting Bluetooth device in Bluetooth Settings menu. I'm not sure it is possible to use a intent including BluetothDevice object, so the intent receiver can initiate HFP and A2DP connection. If you have a idea, could you let me know that?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application has two components,one is Activity and BroadcastReceiver. I am using the BroadcastReceiver as inner class of my Application. The BroadcastReceiver's onReceive method is initiating a new Thread as Thread object,every time. In that i am trying to update the activity if it is in fore ground.If it is in back ground i am simply ignoring. But some times my application is hanging as my application's "HeapWorker" thread is taking 80-90% of the CPU.

View 10 Replies View RelatedAnytime I get in a call and hold the phone to my ear with my should, I start hitting buttons like Mute, Add Call, End Call, etc. I've already been through 3 replacement devices, and all 3 have the issue.
I learned last night (after fighting with a tech at version for 2 hours) that the issue is really just a design flaw by Motorola. If you make an out going call, and then cover the light sensor with your hand (while the phone is vertical), all works great. If you keep the sensor covered and start laying the phone on it's back, eventually the screen will unlock. Doesn't happen every time, only about 80% of the time.
Needless to say, Verzion told me that because that's how Motorola designed it I'm stuck having to deal with it. So now I'm trying to find an app that can lock my screen while I'm in a call. I have bought Screen Suite but it really does way too much for me (plus, I hate the lock screen on it). I much prefer the default lock screen.
Does an app exist that can launch the stock lock screen while in a call? If not does anyone know if the SDK even provides the means to launch the lock screen? Because if so I may have to resort to writing my own app for it.
My widget launches a configuration screen when chosen to be put on screen. That works fine.
I wanted to be able to touch a part of the widget to return to that configuration screen.
I have created 2 pending intents in my widget's service but only one works. The code is below...
For the life of me i cannot understand how i can launch again the configuration activity.

To do the debug in this condition,
1) Is their any way force the DDMS to list the process?
2) Any command to attach the process from the command line?
At a certain point in my program, when I'm completely done with my service, my activity executes unbindService() and stopService() -- yet the process persists. I can tell that it persists because I run "ps" in "adb -e shell":
CODE:.............
"adb logcat", I can show you the sequence of events:
ACTIVITY: context.unbindService(serviceConnection);
SERVICE: onUnbind();
ACTIVITY: stopService(serviceIntent); & returns true!
SERVICE: onDestroy();
First, my activity calls unbindService(serviceConnection). According to the documentation, unbindService() will "Disconnect from an application service. You will no longer receive calls as the service is restarted, and the service is now allowed to stop at any time." So that is fine, and it is happening.
Appropriately, we see the onUnbind() call happen on the service side. According to the documentation, onUnbind() is called when "all clients have disconnected from a particular interface published by the service." So this confirms the correct service connection is being passed, and that the service is responding accordingly.
Next, my activity calls stopService(serviceIntent), and returns true. According to the documentation, stopService() does the following: "If there is a service matching the given Intent that is already running, then it is stopped and true is returned; else false is returned." Again, this is happening and returning true.
In response, the service's onDestroy() method is called. According to the documentation, onDestroy() is "Called by the system to notify a Service that it is no longer used and is being removed. The service should clean up any resources it holds (threads, registered receivers, etc) at this point. Upon return, there will be no more calls in to this Service object and it is effectively dead."
At this point I expect the process to disappear from the process table. Yet it remains indefinitely. But why?
Also, the process is so persistent that I can bind to it again, and I see that it is the same exact process responding because the PID (process ID) is the same!
So, I decided to give Tridents ROM a try about 10-minutes ago.
I used ROM Manager, backed-up my old ROM, then downloaded Velocity 0.2.
Now, my phone will do nothing, it turns on and shows the red Droid eye, then when it's time to go to the home screen I get pop-up after pop-up saying that "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have no way of getting on my phone at all, what can I do?
I Just installed a new theme (Live Wire) for my Lithium Mod Rom. Don't know if there is a connection, but when I need to update an app, I get the message something like "process android media process stopped unexpectedly" and it will not allow the update. Everything else works well. I have turned it off for awhile, and have done a battery pull.
