Apr 16, 2010Is is possible to get back a result intent when launching an Intent from a Notification? Similar to the way startActivityForResult() works ?

View 3 RepliesI am wondering how you would cancel a notification when you are not the party executing the associated Intent.For example, think about an Intent like ACTION_VIEW and a data/url like http://google.com. This intent is then wrapped into a PendingNotification and used by a notification. So when the user clicks on the notification the intent is fired, the browser opens, but the notification is not cancelled. As my code is not the receiver of the Intent how should I cancel it?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI set an PendingIntent on a Notification (notification.setLatestEventInfo). this intent is actually the same intent used to launch my app, only with a flag that I put in the extra (intent.putExtra(TAB_INDEX_PARAM_NAME, UPDATES_TAB_INDEX)).
So my first activity launches, it queries it's intent's extras and immediately navigates to an Alerts activity rather the normal activity on a regular launch.
The problem: from this point, every activation of my app navigates to this Alerts activity. when debugged, I find that the flag is "stuck" in the intent even though I removed/changed it. it just won't change.
How can change an extra on a giving Intent?
I'm creating a notification with something similar to the following:
CODE:............
The key here is the extra data on the Intent for the notification. Once I click on the notification and it brings up SomeActivity, it brings up the activity and the extra data is available.
However, if I exit the app, hold the home button until the recent activities list comes up, and choose to open the app again, the extra data is still passed. Is there a way I can make this data get passed only if the app is opened via the Notification, and not from the recent activities list?
I need to execute some operation when the specific application is launched, it is possible to get notification when an application is to be launched, or after it is launched?
View 11 Replies View RelatedIs there a way of recieving a notification of some sort when a activity is launched. I'd like to monitor which applications are used and how often. Is is possible to register for some broadcast telling me when an application is launched, installed, unistalled etc? I believe I found a discussion or solution to this yesterday when I was looking for something else, but I'm not able to find it today.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAnyone know how i can do it? I changed the notification bar using one of gl0be's update.zips to a desire themed bar, and i have a nandroid from about a week ago if the stock notification bar, but if i can i'd rather just do another update to the stock one.
Anyone know where i can find this?
I've got my ALL notifications turned on for my IMAP email account (which is set to check email every 5 minutes).
That means I should hear a notification tone, I should feel a notification vibration -- and I should see the notification light.
Absolutely none of those things are happening. When my phone is sleeping -- I get no light, no audible tone and no vibration.
It very well may be operator error on my part -- but this phone is going back if this isn't resolved.
I used AlarmManager to set the pending intent.
I need to find out the state of the pending intent, in other word, is this pending intent working or not. Boz i may need to cancel this pending intent, but before canceling it i want to make sure it's active.
But i see no function in AlarmManager can read this status.
you can subscribe to requestLocationUpdates via two ways one by specifing a PendingIntent the other is by using a LocationListener. When is advised the one and when the other?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy app consists of an Activity and a service that runs in the background. The service periodically checks a website for an alarm condition. When the service detects the alarm, it should put a user notification into the status bar. If the user clicks the notification, it should display the app's activity. If the activity is already running, that activity should become visible. If the activity is not currently running, it should be created.
However the notification created by my service *always* creates a new instance of the activity, whether the activity is currently running or not. How do I get the desirable behavior?
Here is my service pseudo-code:
CODE:...............
Can anyone post some sample code or point me to a tutorial on usage of GPS proximity alerts with PendingIntent?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am adding some basic alarm functionality to my program via the use of AlarmManager and a BroadcastReceiver class (named AReceiver.java). My problem is that the data I add to the bundle attached to the Intent creating the PendingIntent appears to be lost. The only bundle data I can access in the AReceiver class is a android.intent.extra.ALARM_COUNT=1. Here is the basic code in the main activity class creating the Intent, PendingIntent and the AlarmManager: [Code in main activity - Notepadv3]
Intent intent = new Intent(Notepadv3.this, AReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra("teststring","hello, passed string in Extra");
PendingIntent alarmIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, pendingPeriodIntentId, intent, 0);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
am.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, timeOfNextPeriod.getTimeInMillis(), alarmIntent);..................
This questions somehow relates to the question when I was looking to get the extras back in startActivityForResult but now I face another challenge.
I have subscribed to receive ProximityAlerts and I have explicitly constructed the Intent to include some Extras. But when I got the service the extras are not there.
After the answers here is the working code:
CODE:..........................
The documentation says param PendingIntent to be sent for each location update.
If I need to return my phone before the 30 days are up and they are out of stock, will they still honor the return policy and just call you when they have one available or will you have to stick with the phone that you have?

Because it sure as hell doesn't play much flash!

Applications can have any number of launchable activities. I know how to get the list of these activities via PackageManager.
Is there a way to determine which activities can be launched via startActivity?
For example, the Documents To Go app has different activities that will start Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF, etc... I am able to launch all o these just fine.
However, it also contains some activities that I am not able to launch with startActivity... If I attempt to do this I get a SecurityException.
I want to be able to determine which activities I can safely launch and which I cannot so I only present the user with a list of activities that I can safely launch from within my application...
I download android's codes and build it for simulator. The simulator can be launched successfully, but it always popup "SORRY!

Like the title says, I need to detect when my app loses focus because another app is launched (Phone call comes in, or user hits Home etc.).
Overriding Activity.OnStop does not work because that is called even when switching activities within my app.
