I would like to show a notification that displays the progress of an ongoing operation. That works well for me. But at the same time the remote view should contain cancel button to stop the ongoing operation. The usual content intent should still do something else, i.e. not cancel the ongoing operation. It seems though that I can only have one intent. Code...

Let's say I have a background service that performs several tasks. As it completes task A, it posts notification A with a certain intent and some extra data that indicates viewing result of A. As it completes task B, it posts notification B with a certain intent and some extra data that indicates viewing result of B. As it completes task C, it posts notification C with a certain intent and some extra data that indicates viewing result of C. At the end, the notification area has three notifications. Each one has the same intent, except for one of the extra data fields. I would expect that each one would load my activity with different extra data. They don't. When onNewIntent is called, each has the extra data field set to C. I have rooted out any possible aliasing and checked the data as it is placed into a notification. It seems to allow only one set of data per package. Is what I am attempting not possible? Has anyone accomplished what I am attempting? For example, have you had a service download several large files, and then had notifications that would open each of those. Code...

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my app, user starts a service and shows a notification from activity A. The notification creates a Pending Intent that will invoke activity A should the user tap on it. The problem with this behavior is that, if the user starts the service (which shows the notification), drags down the notification bar, then taps the notification, I now have two activity A's in the display stack, one on top of the other and both exactly the same. How can I re-use the original activity A in this situation so the user isn't duplicating activities?
View 4 Replies View Relatedin order to save some battery, I was wondering what happens if an activity registers a requestLocationUpdates and then the user (or the os) puts it in background or kills it. Will the location manger still be active and then will the pending intent still be fired? In other words, will the location manager still be alive even if its lancher does not exist anymore? I'd really love this scenario because allows me to link an intent service that handles the location updates without bothering of have something always running waiting for good news from location.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Widget I am working on, that allows the user to have more then one instance of the widget on his screen. Each Widget ID maintains its own configuration file. However, for some odd reason my code that is responsible for setting up the buttons individually for each widget id is not working, only the first widget id is linked to each individual widget. Below is the code that is responsible.
private void TieClicks(Context context){
RemoteViews rViews;
PendingIntent editPendingIntent= null;
// Intent updateintent = new Intent(context,SyncNoteWidget.class);
// updateintent.setAction(SyncNote_Action_Widget_Update);
// PendingIntent pendingupdateintent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, updateintent, 0);
// rViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.widgettextview , pendingupdateintent);
// AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager = AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context);
int[] ids = appWidgetManager.getAppWidgetIds(new ComponentName(context, SyncNoteWidget.class));
for (int i =0;i< ids.length;i=i+1){
int wId = ids[i];
rViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(),R.layout.widget);
editPendingIntent = makeControlPendingIntentActivity(context, wId);
Log.v("syncnote", "tieing " + String.valueOf(wId));
rViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.widgeteditbutton, editPendingIntent);
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(wId, rViews);
editPendingIntent= null;
} }
private PendingIntent makeControlPendingIntentActivity(Context context,int appWidgetId) {
Intent active = new Intent(context, EditNote.class);
active.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK );
active.setAction(com.ntu.way2fungames.syncnote.SyncNoteWidget.SyncNote_Action_Edit);
active.putExtra(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID, appWidgetId);

I've had an issue where no matter how I've tried to set it up I'm finding the Broadcast Receivers aren't receiving any Pending Intents.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have one WidgetProvider but expect the user to have multiple instances of the widget on the home screen. When the user clicks on the widget, an intent is fired to start an activity A passing a String extra (which is specific to that instance of the app widget). Everything works fine unless the activity is already running, in which case the activity is shown in its previous state (and so the intent extra data is ignored). I've tried using various Intent flags (like FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK) but they don't seem to help.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a alarm thing going on in my app and it launches a notification that then when pressed launched an activity.The problem is that when I create more than one alarm then the activity launched from the notification gets the same extras as the first one. I think the problem is either with the intent i put in the pending intent or in the pending intent itself. I think I might need to put a flag on one of these but I dont know which one.The "details" extra is the same to every the next time a notification happens instead of having the different value.Until I set the intents I am sure that the correct value goes to the "details" so its a problem of getting the first intent everytime i press any notification. How can I make it to launch the correct intents?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to access pending notification or the previous notification that my application created?When I use Notification manager and use its setLatestEventInfo() method the last notification (with same intent) is updated. This is exactly what I want but when I update the notification, I want to access the existing notification's intent and get the key/value paris (Extras) and use that information to update the notification. For example in an SMS notification, I want to to get the current message (key/value pair or message itself) and update that with the new value. ( For giving the number of notifications, I can use the Notification.number, but that I want to access more values). One workaround that I am thinking is to put the data of first notification in database or in preference and access it when the second notification comes. But this is not exactly what I want, it is easier to use the existing notification instead of storing in database or preferences. Related Question: What do you suggest I use, Database or Preferences? Is there a best practise in terms of performance and elegance?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to create some home screen app widgets that are entry points into an application. I can put a button in the app widget that uses setOnClickPendingIntent to start the activity. The problem occurs when I want to have two of these app widgets that are entry points to different parts of the activity. I need to be able to pass data into the activity that will distinguish these. Since both app widgets use a Pending Intent that starts the same activity, the two Pending Intents are shared and I can't reliably set extras for the corresponding intents.

View 1 Replies View RelatedA few days ago I was struggling to find a way to use custom intents for my alarms. Although I got clear answer that I have to customize the Intents based on some unique ID eg. setAction() still have some problems.This can happen more than once for a contact. And when the second message is generated, the notification is raised well (message is fine there) but the intent when the user actions the notification it uses old data, so previous message is passed and not the brand new message.So someway the intent is caching and reusing previous extras. How can I make it unique per contact and per action?

Is there a way, or an app, that would allow you to assign different notifications to emails vs texts vs missed calls?
Also, does anyone know if there's a way to set the phone to re-notify you periodically if you have a notification that has not been looked at? I tend to leave my phone sitting on my desk at work and would like it to let me know if I missed a call or text while I was away from my desk.
Ideally I'd like to silence email notifications, but have text and missed call notifications with unique ring tones for each, and I'd like the phone to renotify me every 10 minutes or so if I have a text or missed call waiting for me.
