I am using marks' method of alarmreceiver and appservice. I am trying to pass a record id to the alarmintent through putextra and receive it in ontimealarmreceiver in getExtra. What I observe is, first time record id goes correct (say 11) second time record id is sent 12, but in receiver I receive record id = 11. Third time too record id -11

I have a intent receiver in my android manifest, but would like to give the user the opportunity to choose whether he/her wants the app to automatically start at the specific state. Until now, I've used a service with a broadcast receiver, but I really want to delete this service as it seems a bit unnecessary.
Can register the intent action only if the user wants it (I guess not)? If not, should I make a class that will be called every time the intent is received and checks the user's preference or should I keep the service?
I created a broadcast receiver with permission as below,
CODE:................
Also, In my Manifest file, I added uses permission ( <uses-permission android:name="com.suku.test"/>).
When I try to broadcast Intent, I'm getting the following error,
CODE:...........
Any Idea why I'm getting this error?.
In the examples, they create Intent as:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, AlarmReceiver.class);
But suppose my AlarmReceiver class is in another app, how do I create this intent?
I've tried with
new Intent("com.app.AlarmReceiver")
but nothing happens.. It was not called..
--Broadcast definition added using the manifest editor on Eclipse:
CODE:.................
I need a alarm app which can show the time remainig till the set alarm buzz off.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to capture my activity to handle HOME button press with a receiver programmatically, but the event is not firing. I can, however, successfully register and capture this intent filter if I declare it in a manifest.xml activity section.
Here's the code for the receiver:
CDE:...............
I put a breakpoint here to see if this gets called } };
I'm trying to get a BroadcastReceiver invoked when the screen is turned on. In my AndroidManifest.xml I have specified:
<receiver android:name="IntentReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SCREEN_ON">
</action>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
However it seems the receiver is never invoked (breakpoints don't fire, log statements ignored). I've swapped out SCREEN_ON for BOOT_COMPLETED for a test, and this does get invoked. This is in a 1.6 (SDK level 4) project. A Google Code Search revealed this, I downloaded the project and synced it, converted it to work with latest tools, but it too is not able to intercept that event.
http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#_8L9bayv7qE/trunk/phxandroid-intent-query/AndroidManifest.xml&q=android.intent.action.SCREEN_ON
Is this perhaps no longer supported? Previously I have been able to intercept this event successfully with a call to Context.registerReceiver() like so:
registerReceiver(new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// ... }
}, new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON));
However this was performed by a long-living Service. Following sage advice from CommonsWare I have elected to try to remove the long-living Service and use different techniques. But I still need to detect the screen off and on events.
I'm currently exploring Broadcast Receivers and Broadcast Intent. There are some aspects of the tutorials which are ambiguous to me. To my knowledge this is how the process works. I can broadcast an intent from my application and any receiver on the phone can act on that intent as long as the actions match. I can register a broadcaster receiver on anything that extends Context and when I do so I must provide a filter which will allow the receiver to act on one or more intent actions.The part which confuses me is defining a receiver via the manifest. Must the name of said receiver match a class name? Why should I ever define an intent filter with an action in the project manifest if I always have to provide another intent filter when I register my receiver in code?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my application i have created pending intent which calls another activity (after 20mins of alarm off) with the help of alarm manger. It should happen each time for each new pending intent or when I call that activity. But when i create one pending intent and after few mins again create new pending intent ,then the last one overlap the other previous pending intents and start specified activity only for ones for the last pending intent.I want that each time i create any pending intent it should start specified activity after 20 mins of it's alarm off time.How it can be done ?
View 7 Replies View RelatedSince updating to 4.3 both my and my girlfriend's Nexus 4 clock keeps jumping back 8 hours. Then corrects itself. Then goes wrong again, a few times per hour.
We bought the phones in the UK where there is an 8 hour time difference.
When we look at clock it says UK time is actually Los Angeles and Los Angeles is UK. It swaps them, which makes no sense.
Turning auto time zone off makes no difference, it's getting it from AT&T directly.
When I make a nandroid the time it says it was made is about 6 or 7 hours ahead of the actual time. Is there a way to fix this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a facebook event in my device's calendar that is displaying the correct time on the main calendar, but showing the incorrect event time in two different calendar widgets I've tried, as well as the event list in the Facebook app.
To make matters more complicated, the facebook app is displaying a different incorrect time than the widgets.
I've removed the facebook event from my calendar, reinstalled the widgets, done a battery pull, resynced, and the problem persists.
I think the host changed the time of the event after I first synced it to my phone, but I'm not sure.
So I remember that there was a problem with the Hero and the awake time. My Evo's awake time is 10:53:55 and the up time is 13:53:43. Does that sound right, shouldn't it be getting some sleep?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the displayed times shown on the home screen. The one displayed in the widget with the weather is displaying the correct time but the one in the top right corner is showing as being 1 hour behind. I have tried using manual and auto settings for the time but all this does is change the time in the widget.
Probably something really simple but cannot figure out how to get them displaying the same.
When i send a text out at say 8pm then it shows i sent a text at 8pm. Then if i recieve a text at 8:05pm it will say 9:35am. Not exactlly that time span but you know what i mean. I've tried to fix this but can't seem to figure out why? I got my phone last week and it's been doing this since day one.

i think this is due to the timestamp on the 3rd parties phone being a minute or so out.
I just did a search for this and came up with nothing. My clock is displaying Pacific time, normally this wouldn't be an issue but I'm on the east coast. Does any one else have this issue? Is there a setting I'm missing? When I click on the clock it brings me to World Clock. The Current time is three hours behind, the Home time and New York time are both correct.

Does the small analog clock (#2 in the HTC clock widgets) still have issues with it showing the wrong time? Or is it just my phone? It shows the right location, but the time is 6 hours off
View 10 Replies View RelatedMy clock widgets have all shown the correct time and place since I received my Hero. On Saturday, all of a sudden the clock is off by 5 hours but showing the correct location. I restarted my phone and the correct time would show up, but as soon as the phone sleeps and I wake it up, the clock is off by 5 hours again!!! I checked the settings for the clock and it is set to the network time and gps for current location. I had to download a clock widget off the market because I could not figure it out. Anyone?

View 2 Replies View Related I just got a Nexus 5 and spent the whole of the afternoon trying to migrate my photos and videos from my GNex to the 5. I managed to move everything over, but here is where things went wrong
The metadata displays the time of the file transfer, instead of the original time/date the photo was taken. I'm OCD and a stickler for getting my files in order, so having all my pics/vids in the Gallery app display in the wrong order is really bugging me.
Initially I used My Backup Pro to move the files over, then deleted everything and transferred them from GNex -> Macbook -> Nexus 5 via Android File Transfer. Files were transferred fine, but the time/date stamp is still wrong.
