I'm running an application with different activities. When I close my app, all the activities are destroyed but my app still locked in my main thread in: Object.wait(long,int) line: not available [native method] Is there a service still running or something like that ? What can I do in order to close properly my app?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm currently writing an application for the Android platform that requires a mounted SD card (or ExternalStorage). I know that it might not be the best way to require something like that, but the application will work with quite a lot of data, and I don't even want to think about storing that on the device storage.Anyway, to ensure that the application wont run without the external storage, I do a quick check in the activities onCreate method. If the card is not mounted, I want to display an error message and then quit the application.When I run the application, and the exception gets raised (I raise it manually to check if everything works), the error message is displayed correctly. However when I press the button, the application closes and I get an Android error, that the application was closed unexpectedly (and I should force exit).I read some topics before on closing an application, and I know that it maybe shouldn't happen like that. But how should I instead prevent the application from continuing to run? How do you close the application correctly when an error occurs?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe 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.

View 7 Replies View RelatedCan someone tell me how to close all activities running under a tab?My initial activity does not need a tabbed view. Therefore, to initiate a tab for the next (remaining) activities, I call a class that extends TabActivity, from the first tab.All this class does is to assign and call activities based on the tab click.Currently, to close all activities i am using StartActivityforResult.But in this case, while calling activites from the TabHost, setContent does not accept a result code as a parameter.Help me to solve this one. My application is stranded in a blank screen before closing. i.e. in the TabActivity class.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI started to develope an application. When I wanted to close the application I clicked on the home screen, but the app is still playing in the background. Than I tried to click on the "back" key, but nothing happend, so I've created a key event listener for the 'back" key, and inside that method I wrote finish(); Now my app is closing but I think it's still running in the background, because when I go to "manage applications" I can still see it in the "running" tab, and if I press it, I see I can click on the "force close" to actually close the app. What do I need to do in order to really close the app without leaving it open (one way or another)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have uploaded application to market and met weird problem which I never received before - when I click "Open" button when the application is installed I receive error dialog and the application is forced to close. I do not have this problem when start application from desktop launcher panel. I have already receive 2 stars for that though the exception even comes not from my cod - very unpleasant surprize from market app.
Application uses vibration and declares corresponding uses-permission "android.permission.VIBRATE" - this is what the exception tells me about, but I can't see such problem with other apps that use vibration on market.
Here the exception:
CODE:..............
Here is application manifest:

the problem is that this button doesn't exit of my app... it simply closes the current intent ant returns to the previous intent (window) of my app.... how i can do a real exit/close button? i tryed with this:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
but it doesn't works, because when i turn back into my app, the app comes in the last opened window, and not in the first window of the app, how i can do that? i need that when i re-open my app it starts on the first window of my app

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a little app that uses GPS coordinates and I have a toast that pops up and displays my current GPS coordinates (and updates them as they change).It works fine but when I close the app the toast remains and covers whatever I do on the homescreen (and continues to update the GPS coordinates).How do I get it to cancel when I close/hide the application?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to stop all started services when the user hits the Home Button? I use:
startService(new Intent(ClassName.this, ClassName2.class));
stopService(new Intent(ClassName.this, ClassName2.class));
This means I will have to somehow add the 'stopService()' for 7+ of my app classes
I've researched this topic and I think there's 'onTerminate' but still not sure how this should be implemented.
My application starts a remote service and binds to it. If I close the application with the "back" button there are still some threads running (listed in the Debug View of Eclipse) - main thread, and three Binder threads. In onDestroy() I call unbindService(service_connection) - is there something else to clean up?

Maybe others already know this or figured this out. Apparently our phones work a lot like a Blackberry. On a Blackberry if you hit the home key or end key to exit an app it will stay running. Same thing happens here. However, if you hit the return key to exit the app it will stop running.
I tested this out on my Incredible and it also works. I used Facebook and a couple other apps as examples. If I go in to the app and then leave the app by hitting the home key it stays as an Active backgrounded app. If I however use the return key to leave the app and return to my home screen then the app is listed as inactive cached. This could help a lot of people with battery life and sleep issues, but I'm not sure. I know the way Android works that background apps aren't supposed to really do anything There does appear to be a difference though. This also works on the Engadget app which I've heard people mention for not closing.
My YouTube app is force closing every time I try to open It. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I pulled the battery twice already. It was working fine yesterday. The widget seems to be working.

View 3 Replies View Relatedhow to close an application? Do you just push the back button to close applications? I wonder because my old phone (Nokia 5800) allows one to have more than one application open at the same time, and it has a function to enable one to check what's running and to close anything that you don't want to run. Is it the same on the X10? If it's only possible to have one app open at the same time, that answers my question, I suppose - if I open another application, the previous one will be closed. That seems to be the case, but I checked the other day what was consuming so much battery and it turned out to be a game (Labyrinth Lite) which seemed to be running in the background. I've deleted it now, but I'd like to have a clearer understanding of how to check easily what is open.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have noticed several times that after updating an application in the Market, the app will never work again. This has happened with Pandora, Key Ring Finder, Audio Manager and countless other apps. With some other apps, after updating the application, it will work fine, but the name will change to something odd like com.chompsms.Well, i was reading through Key Ring Finder update and realized that something is occuring specifically with the HTC Hero that is causing this with application updates.But there is a ::drum roll please:: workaround! When updating an app, do not select the 'update' option! This is where the programs become corrupt. Instead, click 'uninstall', then reinstall the application. The freshly installed copy will work perfectly!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI own a samsung moment which was rooted about a month+ ago. I started receiving an error message randomly today from HelixLauncher: The application HelixLauncher (process com.helixproject.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. It prompts me to force close then I receive the same error message yet again.
I cannot access anything on my phone as this error message renders anything on the phone almost completely inaccessible. I don't understand why I've randomly gotten stuck with this error message. I'm guessing my only option is a hard reset/safemode reboot and eventually re-root; this application seems to fuel a large part of the current 'root' I am running.
I have had a Sprint HTC Hero for a while and I absolutely love it, but when my messages get over only a couple 100 or even less, I will be sending a message or reading one and the messages app will force close and then when I come back to my messages, they are all deleted. I also often have to restart the phone just to get the messages to work again. At first I just thought of this as a way the hero refreshes itself, but I have been missing things and losing messages all the time lately and it is bothering me.
