View 4 RepliesIm 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:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI understand how to use intents and startActivity() when opening another activity within my own app, but how do you start a different app? specifically:
- How do you determine if the user has the needed app installed on their device?
- How do you start that app?
- How do you pass parameters to that app?
- How do you find all this info out for a specific app (say Adobe reader, or google maps)?
Wondering if anyone knows the most optimized way to handle opening an URL in android. Here is how I am doing it:
String tempUrl = helper.getUrl(tempString);
Intent i = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW", Uri.parse("http://"+tempUrl));
startActivity(i);
Must you start a new activity in order to open a URL?

I want to change at this line
public void onClick(View v) {layout.setVisibility(GONE);}
to
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent myIntentopen = new Intent(MainActivityold.class, MainActivitynew.class);
startActivity(myIntentopen);
}
but it dosn't work.
I have activities A and B. The A is the one with LAUNCHER intent-filter (i.e. the activity that is started when we click the app icon on home screen). A launches B using start Activity(new Intent(A.this, B.class)). When the user has the B activity open, and then put my application into the background, and later my application's process is killed, when the user starts my application again, B is opened instead of A. This caused a force close in my app, because A is the activity that initializes the resources my app needs, and when B tried to access the uninitialized resources, B crashes.

The update worked perfectly with no problems on my N1, but I'm getting emails from users telling me that the only way they can open my app is from their Downloads page in the Android Market app. I have no clue what could be causing this behavior.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a ListActivity that uses a CursorAdapter to fill the rows in the view. I wrote a database helper class that gives me back results for common queries I make for my app, and it uses an SQLiteOpenHelper implementation I wrote to open the database. I use the open helper to open the database and get a cursor to pass to my CursorAdapter.
Here's a code snippet:
CODE:...................
The problem I'm having, that I didn't have before I implemented the open helper (before I just opened the database directly without a helper), is when I click on an item, which takes me to another activity, and then go back to this activity. When it initializes everything is fine, and my list is populated fine, but when I go back from the activity that follows, the list is empty and in the LogCat I see "Invalid statement in fillWindow()".
It appears from a few post I've seen that the reason is, when I requery the cursor, the database is closed. But I'm not closing it! I'm scratching my head on this one.

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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo 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?
