I am completely exhausted to think logically right now..... I am sure it is pretty easy to implement
I have a menu item which when selected would call another activity class. I am using switch case to select between menu items. I tried creating an Intent to start activity using the Class name but doesn't work.

I am trying to start a new activity from a menu action, as follows:
CODE:.............
The class exists, and has the OnCreate method over-ridden, but whenever I try to perform the action in the simulator I get an ActivityNotFoundException raised. I have looked through the documents and as far as I can read, I do not need to create an Intent in the manifest.xml for this to work.
I'm trying to add a widget and I followed directions to go to Menu > Add, only add isn't selectable. It's there, but "greyed out" ... not sure why or how.

Lastly I wanted to call finish Activity(100) in C to close activity B, but seemed it was not successfully destroyed(I can use BACK key to see it's still there.)

For some reason, even when i'm using their solution files, the context menu does not come up with i 'click and hold' on a list entry.
The class extends ListActivity, and calls "registerForContextMenu(getListView());"
but I never see the context menu fire. Any idea what's wrong with it?
I have so far found two bugs in Galaxo 1.6.3:
a) Speaker doesn't work in call (very weak). works well in ringtones etc.
b) Scrolling contacts by letter doesn't work.
Other than that this is a leap forward, especially with the overclock options!
Both bugs, as well as others, fixed in 1.6.3.1 update!
the difference between context menu and option menu in android? When I click the menu button on the emulator, is that option menu? or context menu? And how to invoke the other menu (not trigger by the menu button)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to customize option menu items. I can change icon when selecting using a selector but how can i change the text color during selection. If it was TextView i could use again selector for textColor property but for menu items there is only resource for textValue not for textColor. So my question is how can i change the textColor of MenuItems on selection.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created an option menu which also has a sub menu. In the sub menu I have a setting for enabling/disabling images in my application based on the application level flag that i change based on the option being clicked.What I am observing is that when i click on the "Menu" and change the settings from enable Images to disable Images. its not reflecting.I have put the debug log and what have been seen is the onOptionCreateMenu method is getting called only one time- first time when i click the "Menu" button. That is the reason the changed sub menu is not getting reflected.My question is that is there a way i can re-create the option menu every time user presses the "Menu Button".

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a 'share' option in menu, just like in the gallery application. I am using the following code...
When i press the Share button in the menu i get "No applications can perform this action". What am I doing wrong? (im working on a real device not the emulator).
I have 10-15 activities in my project. I want to have the option menu mostly in all Activities. Then is their any way we can do it at one place and it appears in all activities.
Also, I will like to hide the option menu in some. So, is it possible or I have to write option menu code in all activities.
I have an application with contains multiple activities. The main activity will start the others ( use startActivity() ) depends on user event, when an activity close, it calls finish() and return back to main activity. It appears to behavior like that.
However, the "problem" I see is main activity's onCreate function is called every time. I think the the main activity should be placed in the activity stack and simply push to front when others exit, therefore only onResume, onStart are called. Is there some flag I need to set or I misunderstand the activity behaviro?
In child activity, besides calling finish() or startActivity for main activity, what is other way to move main activity to front?
I created an application which enables the user to set whether he wants to receive notification while the application runs in background mode. If the notifications are enabled an activity should be started (the dialog should appear on the screen).
I tried to enabled it the following way:
CODE:...........
This is the method from main activity. When onPause() is executed isRunningInBackground is set true.
When I tried to debug it when the main application was running in the background the line
startActivity(intent) had no effect (the activity didn't appear).
Does anyone know how to midify the logic in order to start an activity from the main activity when the main activity is running in the background (after onPause() is called)?
I have tried to write an Android application with an activity that should be launched from a different application. It is not a content provider, just an app with a gui that should not be listed among the installed applications. I have tried the code examples here and it seems to be quite easy to launch existing providers and so on, but I fail to figure out how to just write a "hidden" app and launch it from a different one.
The basic use case is:
App A is a normal apk launchable from the application list.
App B is a different apk with known package and activity names, but is is not visible or launchable from the application list.
App A launches app B using the package and class names (or perhaps a URI constructed from these?).
I fail in the third step. Is it possible to do this?
I need to made an activity (without layout) that on start check if a service is running. if it is true it starts Activity2, if it false it starts Activity1.
I tried with this code:

But when I check, in the onCreate method, if serviceConnect!=null I receive sometime a NullPointerExcption.
I tried also to insert the operation in the method onCreate in an Async Task:

I have a huge maze of activities in my application. What I need to do, is that when the user logs in into the system, the activity history should be cleared. I cant just use finish() when I start a new activity, because I want the activities to have a history until the user logs in. I have experimentet with the different flags when starting an activity, but I have had no success.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am developing a game based on the SurfaceView/LunarLander example in the sample code. I have one activity, with one menu option that is "new game". My activity listens for the menu selection, and once new game is selected, doStart of the Game thread is called. The game starts up after 3-4 seconds, but the menu option sticks around on the screen until the game has started. I think the main thread is waiting on the doStart to do its thing, but since it's creating a new thread, how do I get it to just start the thread and continue its business of hiding the menu option right away, instead of after 3 seconds?
