Android :: Application Not Re-launching

Mar 29, 2010

I have written an application which calls native methods through JNI. In the native library 4 threads are started. On USB removal, the application is to be closed including the native threads. Upon receiving the USB removal event, we are trying to kill the threads (pthread_kill() ) and then finish (using finish()) the activity. After reconnecting the USB, the application is not launching due to memory corruption. In DDMS, it shows the threads are still attached to bionic. As the threads are not closed, I feel the resources were not released properly. If I reconnect again then application launches and works fine and the same repeats on every launch.

To solve this problem Can I use System.gc() ? Can I use pthread_exit() 1st and then pthread_join instead of pthread_kill ? Whats the procedure in Android to kill the native threads and also the application ? After the application is closed, will it not be listed in DDMS ?

Android :: Launching Activities Within Tab

Aug 20, 2009

I have an application with three tabs. Through various interactions with the items in the tabs I end up launching other activities. The client has reviewed this and would like the activities launched "within" the tabs, so the tabs remain visible and if the user clicks the tab it goes back to the original activity defined in the setContent function. Is this possible and how would I go about this from other activities? (ie the child activities, not the one that defines the TabHost and has access to call setContent)?

Android :: Launching My App Using Intent URI

Aug 25, 2010

I know this has been asked a lot of times in StackOverflow already, but I haven't quite found a solution yet. My app sends an email with a link in it that when clicked should launch the app. According to @hackbod, the best way to do it is to make use of the Intent URI (see this). Here's my code that sets the intent and puts it in the email body: Code...

Android :: Launching New Instance?

Sep 7, 2010

I have two activities.A and B. A starts B.Both are running in the screen and both are visible. Say now B is visible.

On a special key press, I want to bring the A to the front and make it active. The problem I am facing is when the special key is pressed, another instance of A is launched and the new instance is brought to the front.

But I want the original A to come to the front. I want to make this change in the framework layer rather than application specific by using the singleInstance theme in the launchMode in AndroidManifest file.

Android :: Launching Instrumentation From ApiDemos

Mar 1, 2010

Going through the ApiDemos sample code (in Android 2.1 platform), I saw that there are two activities that make use of the Instrumentation class: ContactsFilter and LocalSample. However, I'm having trouble finding the menu that will launch any one of these activities from the ApiDemos application. I just want to be able to run ApiDemos and hit the breakpoint in one of these Activities so I can understand how the Instrumentation class works. proper navigation in ApiDemos to launch ContactsFilter or LocalSample?

Android :: Blocking Intents From Launching?

Apr 6, 2010

On the market, there's an application called App Protector, which seems to effectively block the launching of configured activities until a password is correctly provided. By default, it blocks access to itself (not very interesting), Settings, and a few others. I wrote my own app to launch settings (rather than doing so through the home screen) and App Protector continued to do the job it claims to do.
When an activity that is protected is started, App Protector's password input activity is shown instead. Once the correct password is provided, the activity that was started comes to the front.
First -- does anyone know how this app is able to get between the rest of the system and the activities it protects? I would like to do something along these lines in my own application as well. Perhaps this app is receiving a broadcast about other activities coming to the foreground, and when the foreground activity is protected, it forces itself to the foreground?
Second -- does anyone know how well this technique will stand up to attack? Are there other ways to circumvent, where start Activity(...) fails to? It seems that one could use adb to un install it, thus removing its protection easily, but if I pursue my plans here, the app will be a part of a device's firmware (which, I assume, offers some protection against its apps being installed?)

Android :: How The Use Same Instances When Launching Application Twice

Apr 14, 2009

My app has 4 activities on the stack A->B->C->D (top)

If you press home and re-enter the application, another instance of A is started, so the stack is A->B->C->D->A (top). I know this because when I press BACK, A is popped off and I now see D (instead of going to the Home screen).

What I want is that when the user re-enters the app, they re-enter on the same activity they were in before (D).

Android :: How To Use Same Instances When Launching Application Twice

Mar 17, 2009

Is it possible to re-use all the instances of Activities and Services when an application is launched twice. For instance: 1/ I start my application APP1. Some activities are launched and a service is started. 2/ I click "Home" device button 3/ I can see the icon the launch again my application APP1 4/ I click on it and the APP1 is launched twice

I would like to re-use the existing the instances of Activities and Services from the first launch. I guess it is related to "SingleTop" or "SingleTask" but it doesn't seem to work.

Android :: Launching External Application From App

Dec 29, 2009

I would like to launch an app the user selects from within my application. However, I'm not sure how I'd go about doing this. I've tried this:

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Contacts.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT);
startActivity(intent);

But this seems to throw an error and force close my application. I also tried adding:

<action android:name="Contacts.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT"/>

in the AndroidManifest file, but to no avail.

A look at Logcat shows that it's an "IOexception - no such file or directory". A couple of questions arise from this. I read through the Android docs and noticed that the Contact.Intents class is deprecated. However, it's successor, ContactContracts is aimed at API level 5 whereas I'm targeting API level 3. Could this be the problem? Also, I've hardcoded this application into the code. Is there a way to retrieve the intents of any application the user selects so that they can be launched?

Android :: Launching Another Activity From Application

May 22, 2010

I am trying to launch another application from my Activity. Something weird happens when I am running this code :
Intent myIntent = new Intent( Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null );
myIntent.addCategory( Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER );
myIntent.setFlags( Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED );
ComponentName compName=new ComponentName(myArray[i][0], myArray[i] [1] );
// String[][] myArray myIntent.setComponent( compName ); startActivity( myIntent );

I have this error :
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class { com.android.settings/com.android.settings.Settings};
Have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?
But when I replace this line
// myArray[i][0] = "com.android.settings" // myArray[i][1] = "com.android.settings.Settings" ComponentName compName=new ComponentName(myArray[i][0], myArray[i] [1] );
with ComponentName compName=new ComponentName("com.android.settings","com.android.settings.Settings");
And without any modification in my manifest, it works!

Is there a way to launch a dialog (say, the dialog I show to users the first time they launch the app) from a preferences entry? I don't see any examples doing this in the API Demos, nor have I seen it out in the wild. I do see a class called DialogPreference, but this doesn't seem to be what I want.
