Android :: Send Data Packets Out After Broadcast Event Received
May 27, 2010I know that the apps receive a ACTION_SHUTDOWN broadcast event when the device is shutting down.
When an application receives the shutdown, is there still an opportunity to send data packets out, or does android block such attempts(or does the platform tear down the network stack before it can go out).

General :: Receiving Broadcast Event Without Activating App
Sep 6, 2013I want to create an app in which I need to send SMS to a predefined number after first boot up of Phone. I want to do this without user intervention. i.e I don't want to create launcher icon.For that i am using a Broadcast receiver which will receive "android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" event and I can send SMS from this receiver after some duration. This mechanism works fine till Android Version 3.1. I came to know that in later versions A broadcast receiver will not receive an event if Application is not activated at least once. Due to this security measure adopted in Android 3.1+ This mechanism is not working. Any alternate way to meet my requirement.

Android :: Google Maps Broadcast Event For Audible Navigation Instructions / Start And Stop?
Dec 14, 2009I have an application which is playing audio.I have some customers that use this application while driving and who also use the Google Maps application to get directions to the places where they are driving.They have asked me to change my application to pause my audio while the Google Maps application is giving them audio navigation instructions. I am trying to find out if I can register a Broadcast Receiver to let me know when the Google Maps application is giving audio navigation instructions, or if there is a way to detect when any other application has started or stopped playing audio.It seems that this type of functionality would be beneficial for Google Maps and for any type of application which is playing media, so I am hoping that Google Maps is broadcasting events when it starts and stops giving audio navigation instructions, or that there is a generic way to discover when overlapping audio sources are trying to play.

Jan 19, 2010As known, when using the setContentView() method, a view can be displayed on screen.

Android :: Broadcast Event / Android Intent Action
Mar 25, 2010I added broadcast listener "BATTERY_CHANGED" to Android Manifest file so that when the status changed I should get informed. I am adding to Android Manifest file as I want it active through my application life time. But the problem is that I am not getting the broad cast event from the system when battery status changes.
My code is here :-
<receiver android:name=".MyBroadcastReceiver" android:enabled="true"
android:permission="android.permission.BROADCAST_STICKY">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BATTERY_CHANGED" />
</intent-filter> </receiver>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BATTERY_STATS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BROADCAST_STICKY"/>
Android :: Is This Systems Broadcast Ordered Or Normal Broadcast?
Aug 13, 2010I'm trying to figure out if a system event broadcast is broadcasted using ordered broadcast or normal.The event is EVENT_REMINDER and in the source for the calendarprovider i noticed it sets up a alarmmanager to sent the broadcast. I can't find how the alarmmanager sends it. My guess would be as a normal broadcast , But while i was trying some things i noticed i could delay the system's notification (tried up to 10 sec) by building a sleep in my broadcastreceiver. This would indicate that they are handled ordered , and the systems receiver is only called when mine has finished. But can i be sure of this behavour?? (in all 1.5> sdk versions) the docs state that in some cases normal broadcasts are also handled ordered..due to spare of resources.

Sep 28, 2009trying to create a broadcast receiver which responds to system events and change system settings. I don't need any interaction from the user so I don't need an activity and have been trying to do everything through the manifest file. I've put a log event into my onReceive method but it never logs anything so I'm presuming my method is never called. I've tried this with both the 1.5 and 1.6 SDKs. I was hoping somebody could have a look at my code please and let me know if there are any problems.

Android :: Multiple Broadcast Messages With Less Data Or Less Broadcast Messages With More Data
Oct 5, 2009I am developing an application which is communicating with the server. Tha application can perform log-in and get different parameters from server.
The application consists of a RESTful client (custom class for making requests), Communication Service (the service which runs in the background) and the main activity.
For now I created multiple broadcast messages and multiple broadcast receivers in the main activity so when the application performs login operation a receiver (loginBroadcastReceiver) in the main activity receives a message and when another parameter is received from the server different message is broadcasted and another receiver handles the message.
This way however the application performance is poor but I am not sure whether it is due to multiple broadcast receivers.
Does anyone know what is the best way to exchange data between service and main activity - is it better to create a single broadcast receiver and retrieve all parameters from message or is it better to initialize multiple broadcast receivers for multiple parameters?
Android :: How Different Do Broadcast Intents Need To Be?
Oct 30, 2010I have an IntentService that broadcasts an Intent each time if finishes some work. Each broadcast Intent is identical except that it contains a Bundle with some result information from the IntentService. Evidently, having different data in the Bundle is not enough for Android to think it's a different Intent. If the IntentService broadcasts two of these Intents back-to-back, the second one is dropped as a duplicate.
I know I've read about this behavior in this forum in the past but I can't find in the documentation where this duplicate elimination logic is described in detail. Mostly, I just want to differentiate the Intents enough that they are not considered duplicates. Any pointers would be appreciated.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Using Broadcast Receivers
Sep 9, 2009I had one question: Is it feasible to use a BroadcastReceiver as a glue layer between the user interface and the underlying business logic ? Example use case: Suppose i am maintaining the state of a call, and providing callbacks to the UI by invoking sendBroadcast with the relevant intent. Similarly, my underlying business logic can send broadcasts to the activity that has registered for receiving it on certain events ( like call connected, connecting, timed out etc).

View 7 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: IP Broadcast On Emulator
Oct 15, 2009I have an application that acts as both client and server. I have a scenario that I need to test that involves three devices. One of them needs to broadcast a message (UDP) to the other two. Running on physical devices, this is not a problem, and it works fine. On the emulator however, this is much harder. I have managed to get it work for two devices using the emulator. Here my client thread broadcast the message to 10.0.2.255 port 6002, and server thread listens on port 6006. By using redir add udp:6002:6006 the server receives the message fine. Now, if I add another instance and do the same portforwarding, only one of them receives the message. I also tried to use a different port number on the server, and forward port 6002 to that number, with the same result. It appears as if a port can only be forwarded from one instance. Does anyone of a method to broadcast using the emulator, without sending a separate message to each emulator instance?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: ACTION_HEADSET_PLUG Broadcast ?
Mar 26, 2010I've tried these phones: Motorolla Backflip 1.5, Nexus One 2.1
Basically I register BroadcastReceiver to get ACTION_HEADSET_PLUG broadcast and look on 3 extras that come in intent:
state
name
microphone
Here is the description from API:
* state - 0 for unplugged, 1 for plugged.
* name - Headset type, human readable string
* microphone - 1 if headset has a microphone, 0 otherwise
Issue #1: Broadcast comes when activity is started (not expected), when screen rotation happens (not expected) and when headset/headphones plugged/unplugged (expected).
Issue #2: Backflip phone (1.5) sends null for state + microphone, 'No Device' as name when headset/headphones unplugged, and sends null for state + microphone, 'Stereo HeadSet'/'Stereo HeadPhones' as name when headset/headphones plugged.
UPDATE: T-Mobile G1 with 1.6 behaves the same as Backflip phone.
Nexus even worse, it always sends null for state + microphone, 'Headset' as name when headset/headphones plugged or unplugged.
Question: How it can be explained that API is broken so much on both 1.5 and 2.1 versions and different devices, manufactures?
UPDATE:
Code in onCreate of main Activity:
CODE:.........................
Now the code of BroadcastReceiver:

Feb 12, 2010A WAP PUSH (Broadcast)receiver basically doesn't need any UI. It is a silence application which handles the Push messages based on actions/ mimetype without needing any intreaction with user, I've tried to test it in a SMS receiver by removing the Activity from the project and it stopped receiving the SMS messages. My question: Does all android applications "MUST" define a activity? Is there a way to hide it?
