View 2 Replies View Relatedwhat puzzle me so much is that i can't destroy a GLSurfaceView while i don't want to exit the activity.
the fact is when i destroy a GLSurfaceView which had show in the screen (that means it has binded to the activity's SurfaceHolder), the activity exits without any prompting. Perhaps ,the Context which provided in the Construction of GLSurfaceView joins the two things together. so my conclusion is that a GLSurfaceView can only be destroyed when exit the activity. is there anyway to destroy a GLSurfaceView without exit activity? is there someone can provide a clue?
I've been using System.exit to quit the application. Is Activity.finish a better approach? What would be the differences?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have requirement that needs to save data to a file. During multiple Activitiy screens, I add different data to a list and finally when user is not using the app (means if user exits app by pressing "home" button or "call" button), just before exiting that app, i want to save that data of the list to a file.
coding before exiting activity screen is simple - by calling onDestory () method, but here I want not one activity but the application exit.
So my question is How do I write a code that will be executed just before application exits ? I tried created one class extends Application, and then I override onTerminate() method, but it's not get called when I exit ( pressing home button on device)
I'm having this strange issue where upon exiting a subactivity that is translucent (android:theme="@android: style/Theme.Translucent" ) the onStop() method doesn't appear to be called. have a TimerTask that runs and is supposed to be terminated when the subactivity ends in the onStop() method, but I'm instead left with an orphaned thread running in the background. It go particularly bad when I ran the subactivity several times. When I revert to no theme, the onStop() method is called and the activity behaves properly. Is there something I missed about how Translucent activities'lifecycles differ from standard activities?
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhat I am trying to do is emulating the "Home" button which takes one back to Android's homescreen. So here is what causes me problems: I have 3 launcher activities. The first one (which is connected to the homescreen icon) is just a (password protected) configuration activity. It will not be used by the user (just admin) One of the other 2 (both accessed via an app widget) is a questionnaire app. I'm allowing to jump back between questions via the Back button or a GUI back button as well. When the questionnaire is finished I sum up the answers given and provide a "Finish" button which should take the user back to the home screen.
For the questionnaire app I use a single activity (called ItemActivity) which calls itself (is that recursion as well when using intents?) to jump from one question to another:
Questionnaire.serializeToXML();
Intent i = new Intent().setClass(c, ItemActivity.class);
if(Questionnaire.instance.getCurrentItemNo() == Questionnaire.instance.getAmountOfItems()) {
Questionnaire.instance.setCompleted(true);
} else Questionnaire.instance.nextItem();
startActivity(i);
The final screen shows something like "Thank you for participating" as well as the formerly described button which should take one back to the homescreen. But I don't really get how to exit the Activity properly. I've e.g. used this.finish(); but this strangely brings up the "Thank you" screen again. So how can I just exit by jumping back to the homescreen?
I have faced with issue about startActivityForResult() and onActivityResult(). If child activity started by the startActivityForResult() exit by unexpected exception the onActivityResult() is not called and I have no any ideas how can I handle this to get application working in a fail-safe manner ?
When my code runs child activity with startActivityForResult() it awaits until onActivityResult() will be invoked to get working further, but onActivityResult() is not calling and my code is "hang- up" (logically).
So the question is how can I handle all possible ways the child activity is finished (normally and by unexpected exception) to get fail-safe code ?
I have check the documentation for this issue but have found nothing relating issue.
I've been trying to show a "Do you want to exit?", type dialog when user attempts to exit an activity. However can't find the appropriate API hooks. Activity.onUserLeaveHint() initially looked promising, but I can't find a way to stop the activity finishing.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to know about How to exit an application.
In my application there is a button called Exit. when i click the button it should end the application. I trie with finish(). It is not working. It is closing only the current scrren. I need to close all the screens.
I notice that my application continues to run in the background after I hit the home or back button. I tried calling the finish() method and it still says its running. On another note, how do I setup the keyListener to respond to the user hitting the back or home button. I tried implementing OnKeyListener and using findViewById(R.Layout.main).setOnKeyListener(this) to call finish().
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just used some great app and now I'm done, and... I want to *exit* the app. So I look for the 'exit' button.'quit' button.. nope can't find it.. !? Is there really no 'quit' button for android apps? (like in all other operating systems: the X button at the top right corner of the window) Shurely this can't be true. Only way to quit is to go to the home menu and start up a 2nd application dedicated to killing other apps and then kill app nr 1 from that?? Like buying a car that only has an 'on' switch and when i arrive at my destination, I have to open the hood and disconnect a gas lead or sometning to stop the engine.. (Or press the back button 10 times go through all documents you viewed until you reach the home screen). Isn't this like one of the basic features an OS should provide in its user interface?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using Dolphin HD for a long time but lately it's been really slow. I switched to the stock browser and it seems like it's twice as fast as Dolphin. Although I like the bells and whistles on Dolphin, I'll choose a fast browser over that any day.
My question is... what is the correct way to exit the stock browser? I don't want it running in the background. I don't want to get a task killer cause I've heard horror stories about them. I don't want to go into the browser settings each time and erase the cache and whatever every time I want to exit the browser.
Is there an easy way to exit the browser and make sure it's actually closed?
Is it possible to force the cache of your app to clear when the user exits the app? My app piles up cache data (rightfully so) on each start, which is no longer needed once the user quits the app, so I am trying to find a way to forcibly clear it.

Im getting this error caused by VM( logcat below from emulator, it also happens on the device) This is a know bug filed at least 3 times with different issues. I am getting it if I close my app and then open it a few times(it happens too often), you can close the app by "back button". I also have a service running in the background which updates my widget( i stop the service when it finishes), which launches an activity through a PendingIntent. Is there any workaround for this error, if I know what causes this exactly i may be able to prevent it, something must be triggering this....................

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
but it doesn't works, because when i turn back into my app, the app comes in the last opened window, and not in the first window of the app, how i can do that? i need that when i re-open my app it starts on the first window of my app
Either exit button or back button only can be implemented in my application. But i want both the implementations in my application

I work on rooted unlocked G1, latest JS firmware ADP1.5 I wrote some application that perform some root actions in the /system of course, when messing up /system requires to remount that partition but that's not my issue.
the code is fairly simple (attached at bottom of this message). however when running a command as root (for example executeAsRoot("su ls -l /system")) I get exit code 255 (i.e. -1 or failure) when running that command as non-root - it runs ok with exit code 0. The strange thing that this happens only in the real G1 . On the emulator, root commands work just fine. if i open a terminal on the G1 and perform su - I get the "allow"/"deny" screen but after that I am able to perform actions as root. How can I debug the reason for the application process failure ?
