Suppose I want to include data right in an intent, e.g. pass a number or string in the intent data field.What should the uri look like? Something like "data:3.14159"?Or just don't include the scheme at all, "3.14159"? In fact, is there a list of standard schemes anywhere?

I'm adding an intent filter to my android application and I want it to catch requests that go http://www.somedomain.com/[numericValue].I only want to catch it if the path is numeric, but if it has text, I don't care about it.I tried the pathPattern of [0123456789]*, but that didn't work. Is this possible to do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was just wondering if it is possible to give the intent a set of data, instead of just one. A particular scenario where this could be applicable would be a music application.You select a list of songs, and pass all these data (file path) to the Music Player's application.Another scenario: You need to plot more than one address on the Google Maps. You launch the application with a set of data for the intent.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'd like to send an sms message. If the text is too long, I split it into multiple messages. I'm trying to put some extra info into the "sent" intent to know which part has been sent, and when all the parts are complete: The message is sent, and I catch the intent when each part is sent - but the intent always has the same data in it. For example, "partIndex" is always zero, even though for the second message, it should be one. Seems like the same intent just keeps getting thrown to my broadcast receiver. What's the right way to do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to create some home screen app widgets that are entry points into an application. I can put a button in the app widget that uses setOnClickPendingIntent to start the activity. The problem occurs when I want to have two of these app widgets that are entry points to different parts of the activity. I need to be able to pass data into the activity that will distinguish these. Since both app widgets use a Pending Intent that starts the same activity, the two Pending Intents are shared and I can't reliably set extras for the corresponding intents.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to set up a BroadcastReceiver to handle PACKAGE_REPLACED, but I only want to be notified when my package is replaced. It works fine if I specify a data tag with scheme="package" but then I get notified when any application is reinstalled or upgraded. I can't figure out how I'm supposed to specify the package name which is in the scheme specific part -- that is, when my BroadcastReceiver gets the intent in onRecieve(), if I do intent.getData().getSchemeSpecificPart(), that's the package name, but is there any way I can filter for only that in my intent-filter?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a widget that supposed to call an Activity of the main app when the user clicks on widget body. My setup works for a single widget instance but for a second instance of the same widget the PendingIntent gets reused and as result the vital information that I'm sending as extra gets overwritten for the 1st instance. So I figured that I should pass widget ID as Intent data however as soon as I add Intent#setData I would see in the log that 2 separate Intents are appropriately fired but the Activity fails to pick it up so basically Activity will not come up and nothing happens (no error or warning ether)

I have got a problem with Intent in Android..I coded an example about Intent

phonenumber is a String from EditText
But when the Emulator runned .Then, a dialog occur with message : "TestCall has stopped".TestCall is my project..I also want to get a table of ACTION and DATA of Intent.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a notification that starts my activity and passes a messages using the intent's putExtra() function. The message is then displayed to the user in the activity's onCreate function. When the application is restarted due to a orientation change, the message is shown again as it is still in the intent's bundled data.
How can I remove the extra data?
I tried the following:
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
if (bundle.getBoolean("showMessage")) {
// ... show message that is in bundle.getString("message")
// remove message
bundle.remove("showMessage");
}
But the message will still be shown after the orientation changed, seems like the intent used is not the one I changed, but the original one. The only workaround I found is to save the showMessage additionally in onSaveInstanceState(). Is there another way? Or is this the way to go?

Does anyone know of a good numeric password app on the Motorola Droid? I've searched the threads and so far only found Wavesecure (which although cool doesn't do the phone lock automatically and therefore isn't what I'm looking for) and Lock 2.0 (which got some nasty reviews). I REALLY hate the pattern lock and would like to simply type in a numeric password each time the phone goes dim to protect my personal information but I'm coming up empty handed.

Instead of text fields should I use numerical value fields, if such a thing exists? 2) How can you convert from a text field to a numerical value and back again?

Can anyone confirm whether this is possible and if so how can it be achieved?
