Android : Tap Activity After StartActivityForResult?
Nov 23, 2009
I have two buttons in an activity/view A0, b1 and b2 that respectively starts (for result) the activities A1 and A2. After tapping/clicking b1 I quickly tap b2 aswell. The result will be that both A1 and A2 are launched. Is there any obvious way to not have this behaviour, i.e. to "lock" A0? I am thinking of overriding dispatchTouchEvent to consume everything after the call to startActivityForResult, but it seems a bit much...

I have MainActivity which is an Activity and other class(which is a simple java class), we`ll call it "SimpleClass".
now i want to run from that class the command startActivityForResult.
now i though that i could pass that class(SimpleClass), only MainActivity's context, problem is that, u Cant run context.startActivityForResult(...);
so the only way making SimpleClass to use 'startActivityForResult; is to pass the reference of MainActivity as an Activity variable to the SimpleClass
something like that:
inside the MainActivity class i create the instance of SimpleClass this way:
SimpleClass simpleClass=new SimpleClass(MainActivity.this);
now this is how SimpleClass looks like: code...
now its working, but isnt a proper way of doing this? I`am afraid i could have some memory leaks in the future.

I got a question about Activity.finish(). In my Android code, there are 4 activities(A,B,C,D). The starting activity A calls startActivityForResult(intent, reqCode) to start activity B. B starts C, and then finish(), not waiting for result. C does exactly the same as B, starts D and then finish(). D will return some result, by setResult(resultCode).
When my code runs and activity D returns some result, A will catch a RESULT_CANCELED on onActivityResult(), even if RESULT_OK is returned in D. I guess the RESULT_CANCELED is from activity B, which has been terminated before D returns a result, rather than from D.
But, my question is, why activity A catch RESULT_CANCELED after D returns some result, rather than immediately after B is terminated? And, what should I do to make A catch results from D? Do I have to keep B and C alive, to pass results from D to A?

I have 3 classes in my example:
Class A, the main activity. Class A calls a startActivityForResult:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ClassB.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, "STRING");
Class B, this class is a TabActivity:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ClassC.class);
tabHost.addTab...
Class C, this class is a regular Activity:
Intent intent = this.getIntent();
intent.putExtra("SOMETHING", "EXTRAS");
this.setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
onActivityResult is called in Class A, but the resultCode is RESULT_CANCELED instead of RESULT_OK and the returned intent is null. How do I return something from the Activity inside a TabHost?
I realize that the problem is that my Class C is actually running inside of Class B, and Class B is what is returning the RESULT_CANCELED back to Class A. I just don't know a work around yet.

Is there an exception in the lifetime rules for a parent activity that's in the background after invoking startActivityForResult()? From my understanding, in low memory scenarios, the background activities are killed before the foreground. Does this rule still apply even if the background activity started the foreground one for the purpose of obtaining some result?
In this case, I think it would make sense for the foreground child activity to get killed first or to equalize the lifetime of the parent and child.

The application I'm currently working on consists of several dialogs and there is an issue with one dialog I still haven't found the cause.
Running the debugger the execution reaches the following two lines:
CODE:.................
And then the onCreate() method in DlgLogin class executes as well
But the login dialog doesn't appear. If I leave the device idle for such long period of time that the screen turns off and then press any button on the device to turn it on the login dialog appears.
The dialog of course should appear immediately but so far haven't found the cause of the problem.

I have a problem with the startActivityForResult function?
My code:
CODE:..........
But the second intent is only starting and if i finish the second intent (getPicture), the first intent is called. Why?
The logcat shows:

So why the savefilename-activity doesn't start first?

Ok, I have 2 Activities I want to send data between activity A and B.My problem is that some random code of mine seems to be called between startActivityForResult() and onActivityResult()in Activity A.This doesn't make any sense because there is no code after startActivityForResult() is called.Shouldn't onActivityResult() be the first thing A does after B finishes?

From one activity, I want to pass a lot of data (about 1MB of Strings).I tried sticking it in Intent.putExtra(ArrayList<String>), but if I put in too much data, I get "FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION".What's the easiest way? I don't want to publish a service, or use the file system. I really want a pipe that can write data from one end and read it from the other end. I can handle the case where the starter Activity dies while the "startee" activity is trying to read from the pipe.

Whenever the memory needs to be reclaimed, the process is being killed by Activity Manager Service in killPidsForProcess. I have a back button in my activity window on right corner of the title bar.
I want to kill the activity completely on clicking the close button. Can I reuse the same function and will it have any major effect? Please help me out in this.

I want to be able to show the Battery Info activity in my app, which shows things such as the exact level, battery health, etc.I'm not sure how I can get it, though a few applications such as Power Manager, Any Cut, etc. show this screen as well. I found in the source code of Settings this intent in a file called testing_settings.xml,But I don't know how to use it. I would guess from the fact that Any Cut has a list of activities, that a list of said activities exists somewhere, and therefore an easy way to access them exists, but I haven't found it.

My app is comprised of a set of reusable Activities that other apps can reuse. For various reasons, I would like my Activities to be launched in context of the invoking Activity's process, instead of always being launched in my Activity's process (default behavior on Android). How can I achieve this?

So I have an app with Activity A. The layout on the activity is dynamic genearted. So it's possible that on Activity A a user hits a button that goes to "A" and the new page looks different, then a user clicks another button to go to "A" again. Now I have 2 Activities in the history stack. A, A, and currently on A. Is it possible that if a user clicks a button that the whole Activity stack is cleared in a scenario such as this?

How can I make sure I only retain one copy of an activity on the stack when called from non-activity? When called from an activity I can just add the FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT flag to the Intent, but how can I do this from e.g. a widget or a notification?

I have a problem to start/create Activity in landscape mode. My Activity need to start in landscape mode and be used in landscape mode by users. So far, I used setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) to force screen orientation of my Activity to landscape mode in onCreate() method.
In addition to this screen mode requirement, my application need to start another background thread in onResume() method, and this thread takes some seconds in order to finish an initialization process, and it is not desirable to to stop/restart this thread's service during the initialization process.
However setRequestedOrientation (ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) forces my Activity restart in a very little while (means onCreate->onResume->onPause->onStop are executed twice at the first place). As a result, my background thread be stopped/restarted during the initialization process, and this makes me a mess at this moment.

Im writing a program that offers a quick reply dialog upon receipt of an SMS.
However, I am getting an unexpected result. When I receieve an SMS, the appropriate dialog activity comes up displaying the correct phone number and message, however there is a second activity behind it that is the 'default' activity in my program (it is what opens when i launch my application)
I do not want this second activity to come up. The quick reply activity should come up by itself over top of whatever the user was doing before.
The 'floating' activity:

The call to the activity inside an onReceive()

The Manifest:

I'm writing an application that starts with a loading activity. In the loading activity the app requests html from web and parses the html, then it sends the parsing result to the main activity. The main activity has several tabs, and contents of these tabs are based on the result of parsing.For example, the result of parsing is a list of strings ["apple", "banana", "orange"], and I need to pass this list to main activity, so that the main activity can create three tabs named after three fruits.I would like to know if there is any way to pass a list of strings among activities, BTW, is it the common way of do this?

have 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.

I'm working on an app that launches the browser activity to perform a Twitter OAuth authorization. This process uses a callback url which will re-launch the activity that started the browser activity in the first place.My problem is that the browser pages remain in the history stack and when the user then clicks back from the preferences activity that launched the browser in the first place, they don't go back to the app's main activity, but instead are brought back to the browser. I've tried adding flags to the launching intent to prevent history and reset on clear, but it doesn't seem to work when running on my phone, only on the emulators.

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 an activity that starts a long-running service which in turn adds an icon to the status bar. When the activity gets invisible, e.g. by pressing the Home button, and the pressing the icon in the status bar a new activity is created instead of showing the already created activity. If you now press the back button the new activity is destroyed and the activity created in the first place gets visible. How do I make the invisible activity brought to front when pressing the icon in the status bar instead of creating a new activity?

Need an example of how to create/start a new activity from the main activity. I have a button click event on the main layout. Originally I just used setContentView(R.layout.secondactivity); which brings up the layout but I don't think that is correct since the secondactivity class is not instantiated at this point yet. I have looked for such an example and can not find one.

I hav an app that is like a relational database. There is a main app activity that users manage things with. There is also a widget that will display important info and add data to the database. When the widget is clicked, a configure class displays a way for the user to edit data. When the configure activity is done, the widget is updated and instead of going back to the home screen, the apps main activity is started. I can't find where the main activity is being called from. Wouldn't I have to create an intent and start Activity() to get this behavior? When done updating, I want the home screen and not my app.
