Android :: Difference Between ACTION_SENDTO And ACTION_VIEW When Sending Sms?
Jul 27, 2010
I have an application that sends messages to a specified contact. Right now I use
CODE:..............
To send messages, and it works great on the emulator and on my N1. I got complaints from users with HTC incredible that they get force close from android.mms application when they use it. I did more digging and I see there are many ways for sending messages.
For example
CODE:........
And also
CODE:....................
They all seem to work exactly the same on the emulator and on my device, and I could not find anything official about the correct, generally supported way.

I try and open up a new activity, pointing to the market, with the following code:
CODE:......
It works fine on the device, but the Emulator throws an Exception:
CODE:....
I'm not sure if this is just an emulator thing, or whether this could replicate on a real device?

I have an image file on my sdcard and the path to the file is: /sdcard/apps/MyPath/1249487966270.png
When a user clicks a button on my application I want to display this image to the user. Inside of the click listener I'm using the following code:
CODE:........
The button click event happens, the activity is started and then it is ignored. Nothing appears!
Watching the log through DDMS I see the following entries:
CODE:...........
What am I doing wrong? Why am I getting "Window already focused"? I want to use the default activity for viewing the image (the camera's ViewImage class). But this is not working.

CODE:....................
Which opens the image viewer activity but I don't want to see the navigation arrows as well as the items in the menu. I only want the zoom controls. Is it possible to have it like that ?

I would like to run an ACTION_VIEW with memory data.
The first solution is to write data in a file on sdcard but ... it does not seem so efficient. I was thinking to implement my own content provider, but as far as I understand I need to return an ParcelFileDescriptor. I found a MemoryFile implementation in SDK, however I don't know how to get a ParcelFileDescriptor for a MemoryFile.

I have an application that needs to have a user visit a web page to authorize it. After spending time in the Browser the user should return the my application.
Currently, I'm launching the Browser with:
CODE:................
After using the browser, I can go back home and launch my application, which stacks a new Activity on top of the previous stack of Activities that were being used in the application. For example. If the user launches the app, they have Activity A in the stack. From there we navigate to Activity B which then launches the Browser. Then, the next time we enter the app, we launch Activity A, which is pushed onto the stack that already contains an A and B.
My question is then, how can I just go back to the previous stack? Basically, do I have to create a new Activity? Is there a better way to launch the Browser, and then come back to my application?
Also, I've been using the Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK when I start the Browser activity so that my app stays running.

I have a friend who is added to my Desire's contact list.
1. He is on my Facebook contact. (His facebook pic appears in my Desire contact list)
2. He is my Gmail contact as well.
3. He is added as a 'Phone Contact' as well.
I sent him a text few days ago but don't remember if it was using facebook or my phone (network provider sms) but now when I go in to 'Messages' and send him a message, I just can't figure out if I am sending him a message via Facebook or to his mobile number.

What is the difference between these two backup solutions? I am rooted now with Clockwork Recovery installed via ROM Manager, and I have successfully created a "nandroid" backup with Clockwork.
Now, many that have Clockwork also use Titanium Backup for root users. What is the advantage of using Titanium, or does each backup method serve different purposes?
Is it that the nandroid backups can only be used on the same device on which it was created, and Titanium can be used when migrating to a new and different device in order to preserve app data?

I was looking at an Android powered Tablet made in China. They are confirming that it is running version 2.2. But when looking at the about phone UI, it shows that the version is "2.2-update1". Is this real? Or is it 2.1 with some 2.2 features? Any advise would be appreciated, since I wanted to buy these ASAP.

I'm usign starMethodTrace() and stopmethodTtrace() to get trace data to use on traceview. Everything seems to work fine. I test my app for 50 (real world) seconds having two important events after 15 and 45 seconds from start tracing. However, when analyzing the traceview's timeline I found the total tracetime is only 1.068,964 (msec). My two events are displayed as they were occurred at time 257,743 msec and 642,654 msec. This is just about 1 second of total execution time. Why there is this huge difference between real world time and trace view time? May be because I have a lot of idle time? Is there a way to relate the times displayed in the time line with real world time?

I have an HTC Droid Eris, and am curious about the different email apps that came pre-installed. What exactly is the difference between the Mail app and the Gmail app (other than the obvious fact that Gmail only caters to Gmail accounts)? The only email account I use is a Gmail one - is there an advantage to using one over the other for me? I also noticed that the Mail app starts automatically, even if for now I'm not using it at all.
