Android :: Showing Force Close / Report Dialog
Sep 8, 2009
In my current application I want to show a dialog having "Force Close" and "Report" option at the time of Unhandled Exception. Could anyone please let me know how to have this dialog? right now if I change default Exception Handler to mine It gets control but I am not able to show any dialog after that. I guess UI thread is already closed by the time handler gets control.

I feel a little bit silly asking this, but I haven't been able to find any answers on my own. My Force Close dialog has a "Report" button. I think it's a great idea, and I wish everyone had it. At first, I thought it must be something I turned on without realizing it, but not only can't I find any setting that I might have touched, I also can't find any reference to this button existing on the Internet. I have a Droid, and I know 4 other people with Droids, and they say they don't have the option to report Force Closes. Am I special? Am I just missing something? The "report" button has been there for at least a few weeks now.When I use the Report button, I get a screen with a "feedback" field and a checkbox for "Include system data". Below that , it says "Information from feedback reports will be shown to the developer of the application." Under that are Preview and Send buttons.As a developer, I've never received one of these reports.I'd try to send a report to myself, but it seemingly only shows the button for apps installed from the market, and I don't know of a way to crash my production app.I suppose I could publish a simple crashing app just to try it out, but I thought I'd ask you folks first.Edit:You can view screenshots here: http://bentobin.com/crashReportImages/

I find the force close Report option very useful as a developer- the stack trace is really useful to see and I've been able to solve many bugs by using it. However, there are places in my app where (quite rightly) I've used a try/catch statement to handle Exceptions. The problem being, that this prevents a force close and so I can't get the data of the error, which would be helpful for bug fixing or even just giving better error messages. Is there any way to report an Exception which has been handled? And which version of Android did the Report option come about in?

I'm very new to Android so I've been working primarily with information from the android developer's page. Everything was going great until I added the code from the alert dialog section. The code they give alone gives me an error when I try to run it on the last line, saying I must initialize dialog, but I feel like I'm getting the NullPointerException no matter what the case is.If I don't instantiate "dialog" to "null" at the beginning, I cannot run the program. I'm not even trying to do anything crazy yet, any help would be great because I'm having alot of trouble trying to figure out what exactly this code is trying to do.

I would like the users of my android app to have the option to email me the stacktrace of any uncaught exception that crashes my app. Originally I thought I would just wrap every entry point to my app in a try/catch block, but there are far too many of these even in my tiny app for this to be reasonable.So what I am really looking for is a way to specify some method to be the default handler for any uncaught exceptions.

I am implementing a custom dialog to form an about screen with a simple look and feel (which may become more complex once I get it working). I have a xml layout that loads some text and an icon from R. However when ever showDialog(int) is called I get a force close. I followed the instructions as per the dev guide:
http://developer.android.com/intl/de/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html
Code is as follows:
@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) { Dialog dialog;
switch(id) { case DIAG_ABOUT:
dialog = new Dialog(getApplicationContext());
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.aboutdialog);
dialog.setTitle(R.string.about_title);
dialog.setOwnerActivity(this);
break; default: dialog = null;
} return dialog;
} DIAG_ABOUT is defined as private static final int DIAG_ABOUT = 0;
The Log cat shows the following trace:

I have a really weird problem, which I am unable to debug so far. thing is. my app needs to download something to work. So in the beginning of the onCreate() method, I check if that something is already downloaded. If not, I pop a dialog up asking the user to download it.My dialog is shown and I am clicking, so aManager.install() is called. I am passing the context because that aManager.install() pops up a ProgressDialog to show downloading progress and spawns a new thread in which everything is downloaded. So obviously before creating my dialog I make a Handler to receive the response from that aManager.install(). And the response MAY vary, because for example the internet connection isn't available (Exception raised and catched and listener called with different code).Now, when that happens (Exception) I would like to call another dialog saying "something went wrong, would you like to retry?" so another call to showDialog(DIALOG_REINSTALL) (this time with another code).thing is the showDialog() gets called (I can verify this by logging) but the dialogs doesn't show up. Instead my application JUST HANGS Does someone have a clue why it's doing this? No exception raised, absolutely nothing from logcat, I can't tell WHERE it's hanging...just see that the method is called and the dialog should be displayed.

I'm trying to guess why a user would report "Force quits every time I load" the problem does not occur for all users, especially not me.The system constructs a database when it first loads. I suspect that user's phone does not have enough memory.Questions: How can I verify that the system has enough memory to store a small database?
What else might cause a user's particular system to force quit on startup?Wrong answers or things I've tried thus far:The user's hardware is probably different than mine The user's software and available memory is likely different as well The data is already loading in its own thread, with a progress dialog showing

I have a simple list view with some check boxes in an alert dialog. I need to option to add a select all/none but you can't bring up the menu in an alert dialog, and I want to do this function from a button. From what I've seen any kind of button (positive, neutral, and negative) all close the dialog regardless.
So, is this possible? If no, what alternatives do I have? My last mitigation is to simply create a new view and recreate everything. Is a new view the best solution?

I have looked at the Android API and other posts here on stackoverflow, but have not been able to figure this out.
My app downloads files to the sd card. I would like to pop a "loading..." dialog while the file is downloading and then have it disappear when the download is finished. This is what i came up with using the android API:
CODE:.............
However the dialog doesn't actually show. when i debug it, it claims that it is showing, but it is obviously not on the screen.

I've noticed that whenever I introduce some new awful bug to my app and it crashes, Android just keeps starting it up over and over again. I eventually have to hit the dial button on the phone just to make my app lose focus. I searched this group's posts and the developer documents.I can't find anything about this. Is this usual behavior? If so, is there some way to disable it? Maybe it's just my coming from a desktop background, but I kind of think that when something is closed, it should stay closed, especially if the reason it was closed was that it crashed. And of course, I hope my final app never force closes, but with all the different hardware you never know.

Is there an app that lets you set a countdown timer on another app which causes it to force close. For example, I use my Eris as my MP3 player and would like to listen to it while I go to sleep, however I don't wanna let it play all night while I'm sleeping maybe just an hour or so.*Edit* Nevermind I found an app that does the job. Its called Music Sleep. It lets you set a timer that will close your music app in case anyone else was interested. It only costs 99 cents

I'm wondering how I can create a custom pop-up like the one in the screenshot below (borrowed from the Swype keyboard), where I can have a couple of buttons, which each commit a string to the currently "connected" TextView (via a InputConnection). Please note: this is an InputMethodService and not an ordinary Activity. I already tried launching a separate Activity with Theme:Dialog. However, as soon as that one opens I lose my focus with the TextView and my keyboard disappears (and with that my InputConnection is gone).

The ApplicationManager is killing the process of my application when the user presses on "FORCE STOP" on the Aplication Manager.According to the documentation a broadcast action is.The user has restarted a package, and all of its processes have been killed. All runtime state associated with it (processes, alarms, notifications, etc) should be removed. *Note that the restarted package does not receive this broadcast.* The data contains the name of the package.How can I listen that action in my application; I have tried creating a BroadcastReceiver on my package, but the onReceive() is not called.
