View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid : Kill The Currently Running Thread - If One Is Currently Running
Nov 4, 2010I've created a class which is an extension of Thread. This class hits a web service and throws some data on screen. I don't care about persisting this data (the screen displays search results).
Currently, the user simply types into an EditText and clicks a search button. I'd like to take away the search button and implement something similar to Google's Instant Search where, as you type, the search results get updated.
This means, as the user types, the search parameters change. I want to be able to kill the currently running thread (if one is currently running) and spawn a new one with the new search string. How can this be achieved? Can I do it with Thread or will I need to use a new object?
Android :: How Can I Stop A Thread In A Activity?
Dec 9, 2009My 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?

Android : Stop / Kill A Thread?
Apr 29, 2010I am basing my game off of the Lunar Lander demo.
The problem I am having is my game not restoring its last saved state when it comes back into focus.
When the game loses focus/quits it saves all the information to a Bundle correctly, then runs surfaceDestroyed() to shut down the thread.
When I restart the game, I thought onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) method was supposed to always start first, then restore the saved Bundle if it is not "Null". But because it sees that I have started/ created a thread last time, it jumps straight to surfaceCreated method.
The only thing I can think of is to find a way to get rid/destroy the thread so that it runs onCreate at the start. However the stop() and destroy() methods for threads have been depreciated. Is there anyway to do this? Or is there a better method of saving an instance of the game? code...

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Continuously Running Thread
Jul 20, 2010I am continuously running a thread in my activity which fetches lat/ lon information and the overlays on the map are updated dynamically through a handler. The overlays can be varying in number and can change dynamically. The thread is interrupted in onPause().
I am over riding the onTap() method in my Itemizedoverlay, where I want to call a dialog or may be start anothrer activity which describes that particular overlay item.
Every time I click on the moving overlay my app force closes.
I am basically using same onTap() method in http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.... .
If it is only a Toast message and not starting a dialog/activity then it works fine.

Android :: Droid App Crashes Due To Low Memory / Stop A Thread Before Completion?
Nov 11, 2010My application is basically a image viewer. It is opened from both camera and as a separate application.
I open the image viewer to view and edit the picture. Each edit operation is implemented using thread. If my application closes due to pressing the home button, the next time I open it with camera. It throws anr.
This doesn't always happen. Only when large edit operations or edit operations on large image files are done.
I get out of memory error, sometimes timeout.
I guess it s because the thread doesn't complete the edit operation when home is clicked. and it s still running on the background. so when i open it s unable to process it.
m I right?
If so what is the way to stop a thread before the completion?

View 49 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Stop Service Only When There Are No Other Activities In App Running
Mar 13, 2010Is there a way I can test if there are any other activities in my app still alive? I am looking to stop a service in an onDestroy method, but only want to do this if there are no other activities from my app still alive on the stack.
I have the call stop the service in the main activity's onDestroy() method. This works perfect EXCEPT that if a user launches my app, then launches a few activities in my app, then hits the home screen and RELAUNCHES my app, they will subvert my order and the main activity will now be above other activities of my app. From this state, if they hit the back button and 'back out' of my home screen they will trigger the onDestroy() method and kill the service even though there are other activities open on the stack. I want to avoid this by stopping the service ONLY if I am sure there are no other activities of mine open on the stack.
Android : Amazon MP3 Market / How Can I Stop It From Running On Its Own?

When I go into my running applications, 8 out of 10 times it is running. I shut it down, and it keeps popping back up. How can I stop it from running on its own? I only want it to run if I manually click on it. Went into application settings and can find nothing to toggle it off with. This happens on a bunch of applications, but Amazon MP3 is the most frequent.

Apr 1, 2009Recently, I have tried to know what would happen to an alive thread, when the device goes to sleep. I program a simple activity that will create and start a thread printing "HERE AM I" repeatedly through Log.d. I expect the thread would be stopped after I "echo standby > /sys/android_power/request_state." The screen is off, but the thread still keeps alive and prints out "HERE AM I." I don't know why the thread can't be stopped. I test this through emulator (1.5cupcake) and G1(1.1?), but the results are the same. Could anyone give me some suggestions or hints about this question?
