Trying to do something fairly simple, select from a picklist of tracks.
I have some code that in theory works, and this is as follows;
CODE:................
This works perfectly on the emulator, however when running on my Galaxy S, I get the following exception.

I'm not really sure, nor can I seem to find how to correct the issue.

I am trying to locate the intent to load the call log view , does android platform provide that out of the box? the functionality that i am looking is just like picking a contact from address book , you can do that by using intent.ACTION_PICK and using the people content URI
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, People.CONTENT_URI);
It 'll show all the contacts of the system and on selecting one it 'll return the data URI of that particular contact by using callback if you start it by using startActivityForResult. could we do the same with call log as well is their any intent for that?
Can you please tell me how can I launch the intent to pick image from SD card?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm developing an app for Android 2.1 upwards. I want to enable my users to select a profile picture within my app (I'm not using the contacts framework). The ideal solution would be to fire an intent that enables the user to select an image from the gallery, but if an appropriate image is not available then use the camera to take a picture (or vice-versa i.e. allow user to take picture but if they know they already have a suitable image already, let them drop into the gallery and pick said image). Currently I can do one or the other but not both.
If I go directly into camera mode using MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE then there is no option to drop into the gallery. If I go directly to the gallery using Intent.ACTION_PICK then I can pick an image but if I click the camera button (in top right hand corner of gallery) then a new camera intent is fired. So, any picture that is taken is not returned directly to my application. (Sure you can press the back button to drop back into the gallery and select image from there but this is an extra unnecessary step and is not at all intuitive). So is there a way to combine both or am I going to have to offer a menu to do one or the other from within my application? Seems like it would be a common use case, surely I'm missing something?
In application I'm developing i need to open some standard dialog to browse files on the phone. After picking one file I'll attach it to the message. In Android Dev Guide i found such way to solve my problem...
But in that dialog, when I'm trying to pick sound file, i start to playback. And one more problem - using that dialog i can see only gallery and music tracks.
Is there any other way to display such kind of dialog? Or maybe stop to playback the music?
How to get a list of all installed applications and then pick one to run.
I've tried:

And this only shows application that are preinstalled or can run the ACTION_MAIN Intent type.
I also know I can use PackageManager to get all the installed applications, but how do I use this to run a specific application?
My application wants a functionality of picking a contact from the phone contact, I have achieved this using the following intent
CODE:..................
How do i start pick contact activity with an option to create a new contact from the pick list, similar to the one which is available in inbuilt Launcher appliation.
I want to show the user a flattened pick list of all their contacts phone numbers and it must work from versions 1.6 up. I have read the related questions on SO and the Android documentation for Eclair (http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/contacts.html#legacy).
The problem is, even splitting my code into a factory class and specific implementations does not work for me because using Contacts.CONTENT_URI only shows contacts not individual numbers. What I need is this for version 1.6
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Phones.CONTENT_URI); startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_PICK_CONTACT);
And the equivalent for 2.0 and above.
Even if I get their example to work, by building against the 2.1 API am I not stopping my app being visible on the Market to users with earlier versions of the OS? I can't launch it against a 1.6 emulator, for example.
My application wants a functionality of picking a contact from the phone contact, I have achieved this using the following intent Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, People.CONTENT_URI); startActivity ForResult(intent, 001); I wanted few more functionalities
- An option to create a new contact from the pick list, similar to the one which is available in inbuilt Launcher appliation
- Set of contacts should be filtered from display i.e already selected contacts should not be displayed
- Filtering of contacts should be based on the phone number i.e a contact might have two phone numbers associated with and wants to filter out the phone number which is selected I guess above can be achieved by implementing my own pick list using contacts provider, is there any other way without implementing the new pick list

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have search Android docs and for some insane reason I am not able to find the list of all available intent filters.
I am finding an intent filter, which would do something like , notifying me through Broadcast Receiver that a particular Activity (example browser, or email ) has been started or in foreground. Can anyone help me with that .
I'm looking into getting my application to show up when the user tries to 'share' a picture via the Gallery application I can't, however, find any information about how exactly to go about this. I get that I need to declare an intent filter for the SHARE action, what I can't seem to find is how the Gallery wants to send out the selected image. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/11/integrating-applicatio... documentation is key indeed.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am developing an application which shows dialog to pick file and than processes it but sometimes users say that using that intent they couldn't choose even their photos:( (for example, on Android 2.1, Nexus One)So, i decide to take a look to openintent's File IO Manager http://www.openintents.org/en/node/159 It is very good way to chose file I think! But what is it right way to use it in my application? File IO Manager must be installed on the phone while my application could use their nice intents. So, what should I do:
1. Ask user to install File IO Manager.
2. Build File IO in my application
3. Build in the installation of my application installation of File IO Manager
4. some other way.
