The application launcher+(process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Then I hit forse close, it usually only happens when I open or close the keyboard but sometime it will happen at random. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it.
I am Developing an App that parses data from HTML. One of the data that is parsed is an integer that increases over time and rather than constantly requesting the data I would like to have a task that intervals the integer. Due to the fact that I need the value updated into a TextView I decided to go with an AsyncTask rather than a Timer.
My issue is I want to be able to restart my task once I know that it has finished, or if it is currently RUNNING simply avoid manipulating it.
Here is my AsyncTask:

Am I going about this correctly?
Is there an application (or one in the works) that will allow us to apply a sound effect to the slider opening and closing? Maybe base it off of when the screen rotates + keyboard lights up? I would love to apply 2 seperate notifications. One for open and one for close. Anyone got an application like this in the works or know of one that would work on Samsung Moment? I know there is a notification for when you unplug the power, but I'd love to have 2 seperate from that for JUST the slider. I can't believe we can't modify seperate notification sounds custom without apps.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I have total 3 activities.
First activity(A) starts second activity(B). From Activity B, 3rd activity(C) is called.
Activity B, shows list with checkbox to select items and single OK button. On clicking OK button Activity C is called with selection.
When user clicks BACK button in Activity C, by default Activity B is displayed (with selected checkbox).
I want to display Activity A when BACK button is clicked in Activity C.
How to achieve that?
I have handled OnKeyDown() in Activity C to startactivity(A). it is working. But when user clicks BACK button on Activity A, again Activity C is displayed. while application should end.
In this direction how to skip Activity B is ever called?
I have a textview where to put a date. I've associated to this field a date picker, the problem is that at the first touch the keyboard pops up and I have to tap a second time the field to show the picker.
How can I avoid the keyboard to pop up?
Since I seem to have caught two activity references in a heapdump, where the Activity is set to singleTask. Romain's advice on avoiding memory leaks includes: "Avoid non-static inner classes in an activity if you don't control their life cycle, use a static inner class and make a weak reference to the activity inside"
What does this mean exactly? I can't find any examples, positive, or negative for this rule. I do have some non static inner classes in my activity. Most of them are anonymous inner classes like this one. I see hundreds of them in the samples:....................
I have a server socket bound to a port and I want to send notifications using NotificationManager when a client connects. This all works well.
What I want to avoid is sending notifications if a specific activity is currently being used by the user. E.g., I'm trying to avoid something like GMail notification if I'm already reading email.
I created an application which is asynchronously communicating with the server. When the application makes a server request a new dialog (activity) with "loading" notification is created. The main activity implements methods for handling server responses and I would like to close the foreground activity when the main activity receives the answer from the server.

How should i implement this? How to wait for users answer and continue when onClick or OnTouch listener finishes?
Should i use Handler class, intents or something else?
I want next scenario:
On the screen I have a question and 3-4 clickable ImageButtons. I'm building some of the layout dinamically from custom showQA() function. User choose the answer and if he clicked the correct answer i should start some type of animation on the screen. I've done that from the onClickListener. Now, i need to build layout again(show new question and answers) from the showQA() function which must be called after that animation showed to the user. How can i know when the onClickListener() finished its work?
Is there a way to restart an activity? The reason is that need to change the theme dynamically, and the activity needs to be restarted and redraw itself after the change.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've searched and I know it seems some people frown upon using activities within tabs, but moving past that...how would I restart a tabbed activity while still keeping the tabs visible? I have an activity in a tab, I use the menu to create a new activity to update the tab's activity displayed info, when I return from the menu activity I want the new information to be displayed in the tab's activity. I am using startActivityForResult() from the menu choice, but when I return and try to restart the activity...it wipes out the tabs above(I guess as expected, but I want to re-launch the refreshed activity within the tab).
Creating the tabs:
TabHost host = getTabHost();
Intent home_intent = new Intent(constants.HOME_ACTION,
null, this, homeTab.class);
Intent inbox_intent = new Intent(constants.INBOX_ACTION,
null, this, inboxTab.class);
Intent stats_intent = new Intent(constants.STATS_ACTION, null,
this, infoTab.class);
host.addTab(host.newTabSpec(constants.HOME_TAG)
.setIndicator(getText(R.string.home_label),
getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon))
.setContent(home_intent));
host.addTab(host.newTabSpec(constants.INBOX_TAG)
.setIndicator(getText(R.string.inbox_label),
getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon))
.setContent(inbox_intent));
host.addTab(host.newTabSpec(constants.STATS_TAG)
.setIndicator(getText(R.string.stats_label),
getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon)).setContent(
stats_intent));
Return from the menu activity in the tab's activity(updating database info): code...
I am currently working on a multi-threaded game application for the Android platform. so far so good. I just got over a bug in my application which caused it to restart on orientation change (fixed by designating a specific orientation depending on the availability of a hardware keyboard or not, which is important 'cuz it is an online game with chat capabilities), and that works. BUT now i am trying to avoid the same problem when the user simply slides open the hardware keyboard. I'm not quite sure how to go about avoiding the restart of my application or the saving of the state of my application. Any solutions/suggestions?
View 1 Replies View RelatedActivity SplashScreen is the launching activity for my app. It sends a request to my server and gets back a user data it then uses to populate a user object which is a static object. Once it has that it calls the MyMapView activity and finishes itself. A force close occurs when I hit the home button and then open up enough other apps so that Android kills MyMapView to get more resources. Now when I open my app again it tries to start MyMapView and bypasses SplashScreen. There is no user object so I get null pointer exceptions. I have tried to Override the onSaveInstanceState and OnRestoreInstanceState but it seems that those are not available when Android kills the activity. I also tried android:finishOnTaskLaunch with the SplashScreen (maybe this should be put on MyMapView but the article I read said different) and that seems to have no effect. What I would like is for the activity to not restart after Android has killed it. What can I do about this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'd like to use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP to launch an activity in my app. It has one feature I don't want though - it restarts the target intent, instead of just resuming it. Example history stack, with activity D making the call to B with that flag:
A B C D
new stack
A B
But 'B' gets relaunched, its onCreate() method is called. Since B is already in the history stack, is there a way I can use this flag, but have it *not* recreate B, just onResume() it again? The reordering flags are kind of what I need too, but they won't pop C and D, just reshuffle the stack so B comes to the top, but I want C and D to go away.
I'm developing an application that uses a library project to store much of the functionality and content. When I edit the code and/or content in the library and then run the app, it doesn't properly restart the activity with the changes, giving the warning:
Warning: Activity not started, its current task has been brought to the front
I understand that this warning comes from the SK not thinking that there were any changes to the app, but there were (to the library, not to the app itself).
The only way that I've found to force the app to recompile with the library changes is to do Project->Clean. While this is effective, it's a bit annoying to have to do this every time a make a change. Does anyone know of a way to force the SDK to recognize that a library change should result in reloading the application?
I want to make an activity that allows orientation changes on some condition, but not otherwise. More exactly I want to prevent restarting the activity when a background thread is busy.
I have put the configChanges attribute on the activity manifest, and onConfigurationChanged is called when the orientation changes. However I want to allow the app to change the orientation when allowed.

Is there any way to close the activity the launched another activity? So if activity A starts activity B can activity B close activity A? I know there is the tag android:finishOnTaskLaunch="true" but i only want it to happen if a button is pressed so im looking for a method to do it.
