Android :: Way To Intent From OnCreate Method In Phone?
May 12, 2010Maybe my question might seem a bit weird, but I have an activity in which, in one case , I have to move to another activity before it finishes loading the screen. My condition is in the onCreate method, which means when I encounter it, i get a "startActivity called from outside an activity context" error and the app just crashes. But then, is there an easy way like a flag for the intent to make it work without having the activity context resolved?

Nov 11, 2010I'm opening an Activity using this:
startActivity(new Intent(Parent.this, Child.class)); And on the child, I have this code on the onCreate function (the if contains more than just true, of course): public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); if (true) { AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this); builder.setPositiveButton("OK", null); builder.setTitle("Error"); builder.setMessage("Connection error, please try later.") .show(); finishActivity(0); return;}}
Why is the activity not closing? I get the alert box, but then I have to tap the "back" button to go back.
Android :: Activity Constructor Vs OnCreate
Jul 21, 2010I understand that Android Activities have specific lifecycles and that onCreate should be overridden and used for initialization, but what exactly happens in the constructor? Are there any cases when you could/should override the Activity constructor as well, or should you never touch it?
I'm assuming that the constructor should never be used because references to Activities aren't cleaned up entirely (thus hampering the garbage collector) and that onDestroy is there for that purpose. Is this correct?
Android :: Database Activity OnCreate()c
Nov 19, 2010I know that network activity and expensive operations should not be done on the ui thread, but what about database activity?

Jul 2, 2010I have a parent activity, and a child activity that extends the parent activity. When the parent starts the child activity,
Which onCreate gets executed first? The child's or parent's?
There is a particular variable I am setting in the Child activity's onCreate method, and right now, it looks like it takes a while to get to the Child activity's onCreate, and so the methods in the Parent are reporting an empty variable. Whereas when I make the Parent sleep for a while, it reports the correct variable.
CODE:............
So, basically, even after the Parent starts the Child, it still returns "Parent Value", but when I have the thread sleep, it return "Child Value".
Android :: Opening A Context Menu In OnCreate Of An Activity
Aug 9, 2010I have a need to capture some user input when an activity opens for the first time. I'm hoping to give the user a list of options to select from, which will be pulled in dynamically. I'll then store the selected value locally for future use. I'm not finding a way to do what I'm after and was wondering if anyone has run into this before and how they solved it.

Android : Webview - OnCreate Always Get Called When Activity Comes To Foreground
Mar 29, 2009I launch my TestWebView activity. After my web page is loaded, I put the app in the background by pressing the Home key. Then I bring the TestWebActivity back to the foreground. Unexpectedly, TestWebView's onCreate() is called when I bring the activity to the foreground. But onDestroy is never called. This same thing happens every time I tested. It appears the old TestWebView was not completely killed so there are possibly duplicate web clients running.

Android :: Voice Recognition Activity Called In OnCreate Method / Causes App To Load Slowly
Oct 1, 2010In my android app I call the voice recognition in my onCreate method of my startup activity. I have made it a preference to start up with the voice control or not.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Exclude Own Activity From Activity.startActivity - Intent
Oct 17, 2010My app works with pictures. It can take multiple pictures as an input, process them, and send them again to another app.
As a consequence, my main Activity has declared an intent filter on ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE for image/* mimetypes and can result in issuing a new Intent with the same action and data type using Activity.startActivity(Intent).
Is there a way to exclude my own activity from the list of apps that is displayed to the user after the startActivity() call ?
