I want dont want the activity animation that comes by default when we start a new activity (i.e. the right to left scrolling effect to new activity view) so i googled a bit and found a flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION in the Intent class also i applied that flag to my intent via the setflags() method but somehow i still see the activity animation when a new actvity is launced ( i am developing in android 2.1 update).

How can I create a Slide-Bottom-To-Top animation when close/stop an activity in android application?
View 1 Replies View Relatedhave an activity which launches another activity, via a button click. By default, on newer OS versions of android, the OS will animate the new activity sliding in from right to left.Is there a way to disable this animation? I just want the new activity to appear without any sort of animation.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an ImageView on which I have applied rotate animation. Since I want the rotation to go on continuously, I gave the repeatCount as infinite in my rotate.xml
android:repeatCount="infinite"
In onCreate(), I load the animation and start it.
Animation myAnim = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.rotate);
objectImg.startAnimation(myAnim);
When a button is pressed, the rotation must stop. Hence in my onClick(), I called clearAnimation().
objectImg.startAnimation(myAnim);
My simple doubt is whether it's the right thing to do, to stop the animation?
I assume clearAnimation() is to loadAnimation(), but there is no stopAnimation() corresponds to startAnimation().
can someone tell me if I can change the activity animation by applying a theme?I know the change will not be global, but is it even possible to make the change to be applied within my own app? For example, if i have an app that does not want to standard slide in/out animation on start/ exit, is it possible to change them?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a widget which starts an activity when it is clicked. I'd like to have some kind of fancy animation to display this activity, rather than the standard scroll-from-right of Android. I'm having problems setting it, though.But then where do I reference it from? I've tried both the base element of the activity I want to slide in, and the activitiy's entry in the manifest,I might be doing this all wrong. Any help is much appreciated!

I am trying to apply an animation to a view in my Android app after my activity is created. To do this, I need to determine the current size of the view, and then set up an animation to scale from the current size to the new size. This part must be done at runtime, since the view scales to different sizes depending on input from the user. My layout is defined in XML. This seems like an easy task, and there are lots of SO questions regarding this though none which solved my problem, obviously. So perhaps I am missing something obvious. I get a handle to my view by: ImageView myView = (ImageView)getWindow().findViewById(R.id.MyViewID);
This works fine, but when calling getWidth(), getHeight(), getMeasuredWidth(), getLayoutParams().width, etc., they all return 0. I have also tried manually calling measure() on the view followed by a call to getMeasuredWidth(), but that has no effect. I have tried calling these methods and inspecting the object in the debugger in my activity's onCreate() and in onPostCreate(). How can I figure out the exact dimensions of this view at runtime?

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy problem is: Activity A called Activity B, and in Activity B, it start a background thread to do some client-server work. But it maybe takes too much time. So i add a cancel button to call the stop() method to stop the thread, and call finish() to finish the Activity B and go back to Activity A. Although it is back to Activity A, the thread isn't stop immediately. Can i just call the finish() to go back to Activity A, and leave the thread to exit by itself? If it is not the right way, which is?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a START and STOP button in the main screen of an App. there are some GUI and threads that are instantiated when I click on START. When I click on stop, I want everything to be stopped and the activity should come back to its origin state. To the state that is exactly same like when launched (when we tapped on App icon in mobile).Is it possible to do this? I tried with finish() , this killed the app and exited . I don't want to exit from main screen. rather, on clicking STOP I want app to come back to origin or born state.

Currently working on a simple app to allow users to find various things around them. When the activity that shows the Google map is active I can see the GPS icon on the status bar, which is normal. But I need to be able to stop the GPS hardware when my user navigates away from the activity, and switch the GPS back on when the activity is shown.
Is there a simple way to stop GPS when a user navigate away from an activity? I have tried the LocationManager's removeUpdates() but this doesn't actually stop the GPS (the icon is still flashing on the status bar and draining the battery).
What I'm looking for is a simple way to programatically stop the GPS hardware.
Can anyone tell me how to stop media player that was started in a previous activity?For ex.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an AsyncTask object which starts executing when the activity is created and does stuff in the background (downloads upto 100 images). Everything works fine but there is this peculiar behavior which i'm not able to understand.For eg: when the android screen's orientation changes then the activity is destroyed and created again. So I override the onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() method and save all the downloaded data executed in the AsyncTask. My purpose of doing this is to not have AsyncTask run each time activity is destroyed-created during orientation changes, but as i can see in my logs the previous AsynTask is still executing. (The data is saved correctly though)I even tried to cancel the AsynTask in the onDestroy() method of the activity but the logs still show AsynTask as running.This is really strange behavior and would really be thankful if someone can tell me the correct procedure to stop/cancel the AsynTask.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application that must create a database and if that fails, then no sense moving forward. I've built an AlertDialog and show() it but it never displays. The logic falls through and then barfs because of the missing database.What is the right/best way to throw up a message and halt the activity? The code below executes fine (meaning the show() occurs while debugging and it falls to the next line) but the UI never displays this alert.BTW I realize the throw might not be the most graceful but I'm not even getting that far so.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Android, I have some code to check whether the user has GPS switched on, and launch the Settings for them to turn it on if they don't.However, I'm finding that if the user opens the Settings, turns GPS on, then carries on using the app as normal, there is an odd problem. Often, when the user reopens the app, the Settings are at the front. How can I set them so they don't keep reappearing?I wonder if I should be using the CLEAR_TOP flag or something similar.I've tried looking at the docs for the Activity flags but find them a bit confusing.
