I'm trying to open the MainActivity when the user clicks a button in my notification, while the app is only running in the background with a service. When the button is clicked, these lines are triggered in the Service class:
Intent openApp = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
openApp.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(openApp);
I've checked it, and the lines are triggered, so there's no problem in reacting to the button's click, the Activity won't open though.
Any suggestions? Why isn't this working for me and how can I make it work?
Edit
I was asked for some more code, so in my onStartCommand() inside my Service, if it starts with a stop-action within its intent, I call the killService() method, which kills the Service, starts the MainActivity and do some other stuff:
if (action != null && action.equals(ACTION_STOP_SERVICE)) {
killService();
}
To set the Notifications button, I use this code:
Intent stopActionIntent = new Intent(this, TimerService.class);
stopActionIntent.setAction(ACTION_STOP_SERVICE);
PendingIntent stopActionPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 1, stopActionIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE);
timerNotificationBuilder.addAction(R.drawable.stop, "Stop", stopActionPendingIntent);
And as I said, the button already reacts to the user clicking on it, so that's not the problem.
You can try to receive the click in a BroadcastReceiver and then open activity from there.
Try this to add a action button o your notification:
timerNotificationBuilder.addAction(createNotificationActionButton("STOP");
Where the createNotificationActionButton method is this:
public NotificationCompat.Action createNotificationActionButton(String text){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, StopwatchNotificationActionReceiver.class);
#SuppressLint("InlinedApi") PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, new Random().nextInt(100), intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE);
return new NotificationCompat.Action(0, text, pendingIntent);
}
Create a class named StopwatchNotificationActionReceiver and make it extent a BroadcastReceiver`. This is the code for that class:
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;
public class StopwatchNotificationActionReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
PrefUtil.setIsRunningInBackground(context, false);
PrefUtil.setTimerSecondsPassed(context, 0);
PrefUtil.setWasTimerRunning(context, false);
context.stopService(MainActivity.serviceIntent);
Intent activityIntent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
activityIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActvity(activityIntent);
}
}
Also you need to register that receiver in your manifest like this:
<receiver android:name="StopwatchNotificationActionReceiver"/>
Where the MainActivity.serviceIntent is a public static variable which looks like this:
public static Intent serviceIntent;
And this intent is only used to start the service like this:
//In onCreate
serviceIntent = new Intent(this, TimerService.class);
//In onPause
PrefUtil.setTimerSecondsPassed(this,seconds);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
startForegroundService(serviceIntent);
}
Or you can try the simple method:
if (action != null && action.equals(ACTION_STOP_SERVICE)) {
Context context = this;
Intent activityIntent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
activityIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActvity(activityIntent);
killService();
}
Edit
Another solution is here. Again. You need to refer to my repo as I have made changes to the files in order to complete your task. In the service class, refer to this method. There, I start the activity if the action is reset(r). Or else, it opens the broadcast receiver. Then, in the activity, I receive that extra in the onResume() method. If the reset button is not clicked, it opens the Receiver class.
And as always, you can view the result of the app from here.
I hope that code will do your work.
I found it! See this answer.
This answer suggests enabling ScreeanOverlay settings because as of Android 10 and later you can no longer open an activity from the background just by calling the lines I've used.
To make it work, you'd have to add this permission through your Manifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>
And then the user would have to enable the Display over other apps setting.
I searched for an option to get the user to this setting more easily and found this answer.
This answer gives a code that redirects the user to the Display over other apps setting
if (!Settings.canDrawOverlays(this)) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_MANAGE_OVERLAY_PERMISSION, Uri.parse("package:" + getPackageName()));
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
}
and then I guide the user with the notification's content (text) on how to enable the setting.
Once the setting is enabled, The lines I've used before work.\
So, problem solved?
Not Completely Solved
this whole configuration described above works, but only if the app is not killed.
If the app was killed and I try the method listed above, the app joins the recent apps list, but won't open and show up.
A solution that solves this issue as well will be accepted as an answer instead of this one.
How do I display a popup when an app is in the background?
For example, I took the GetContact application, when a call is received from the user, a window with information about the call pops up on the screen.
How can this be done?
It is desirable with code examples, I will be very grateful.
Thank.enter image description here
Add required permissions in your app manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
Incoming call reciever
public class IncomingCallReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
try {
System.out.println("Receiver start");
String state = intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE);
String incomingNumber = intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_INCOMING_NUMBER);
if (state.equals(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_RINGING)) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Incoming Call State", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Toast.makeText(context, "Ringing State Number is -" + incomingNumber, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Ask Runtime permission in your MainActivity.
Add overlay view to display notification in screen.
WindowManager wm =(WindowManager)getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
View view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.test, null)
wm.addView(view, mParams)
What you're looking for is Drawing over other apps. It's a tricky feature of android that I personally love. You have to deal with WindowManager and you need SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission
Implementations are huge and I guess it's better to give you some links.
Here's a good explanation about floating widgets
https://medium.com/#kevalpatel2106/create-chat-heads-like-facebook-messenger-32f7f1a62064
This is kinda close to what you want: https://github.com/codebyshubham/Calling_Person_History
Also remember that custom roms like Xiaomi have some restrictions on these widgets.
Also a great open source floating app is called QuickLyric take a look at it it might help you a lot
I'm making a university project where I have to make a charger alarm. I select a ringtone, enter a pin, then plug in a charger. When I plug out, it moves to another activity where the phone starts ringing, the screen is locked and can only proceed if provided a correct pin code.
I'm stuck at the point where I have to move from one activity to another when the charger disconnects.
My code is not working. This is the receiver in the manifest file:
<receiver android:name=".MainActivity$PowerConnectionReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_POWER_DISCONNECTED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
This is the broadcast receiver I made in the MainActivity:
public class PowerConnectionReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO: This method is called when the BroadcastReceiver is receiving
// an Intent broadcast.
Toast.makeText(context, "The device is not charging", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent myintent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,setter.class);
startActivity(myintent);
}
}
Please see:
You cannot receive this through components declared in manifests, only
by explicitly registering for it with...
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED
And did you set the corresponding permission?
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BATTERY_STATS"/>
Your intent has not correct parameters.
Intent myintent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,setter.class);
Change should be:
Intent myintent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class)
Make sure your <receiver></receiver> tags are out of the activity tag in Manifest. Place them in application level.
I am launching an activity to make a phone call, but when I pressed the 'end call' button, it does not go back to my activity. Can you please tell me how can I launch a call activity which comes back to me when 'End call' button is pressed? This is how I'm making the phone call:
String url = "tel:3334444";
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(url));
use a PhoneStateListener to see when the call is ended. you will most likely need to trigger the listener actions to wait for a the call to start (wait until changed from PHONE_STATE_OFFHOOK to PHONE_STATE_IDLE again) and then write some code to bring your app back up on the IDLE state.
you may need to run the listener in a service to ensure it stays up and your app is restarted. some example code:
EndCallListener callListener = new EndCallListener();
TelephonyManager mTM = (TelephonyManager)this.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
mTM.listen(callListener, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE);
Listener definition:
private class EndCallListener extends PhoneStateListener {
#Override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING == state) {
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "RINGING, number: " + incomingNumber);
}
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK == state) {
//wait for phone to go offhook (probably set a boolean flag) so you know your app initiated the call.
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "OFFHOOK");
}
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE == state) {
//when this state occurs, and your flag is set, restart your app
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "IDLE");
}
}
}
In your Manifest.xml file add the following permission:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
This is regarding the question asked by Starter.
The problem with your code is that you are not passing the number properly.
The code should be:
private OnClickListener next = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
EditText num=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.EditText01);
String number = "tel:" + num.getText().toString().trim();
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(number));
startActivity(callIntent);
}
};
Do not forget to add the permission in manifest file.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"></uses-permission>
or
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PRIVILEGED"></uses-permission>
for emergency number in case DIAL is used.
We had the same problem and managed to solve it by using a PhoneStateListener to identify when the call ends, but additionally we had to finish() the original activity before starting it again with startActivity, otherwise the call log would be in front of it.
I found the EndCallListener the most functional example, to get the behaviour described (finish(), call, restart) I added a few SharedPreferences so the Listener had a reference to manage this behaviour.
My OnClick, initialise and EndCallListener only respond to calls from app. Other calls ignored.
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.preference.PreferenceManager;
import android.telephony.PhoneStateListener;
import android.telephony.TelephonyManager;
import android.util.Log;
public class EndCallListener extends PhoneStateListener {
private String TAG ="EndCallListener";
private int LAUNCHED = -1;
SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(
myActivity.mApp.getBaseContext());
SharedPreferences.Editor _ed = prefs.edit();
#Override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
String _prefKey = myActivity.mApp
.getResources().getString(R.string.last_phone_call_state_key),
_bPartyNumber = myActivity.mApp
.getResources().getString(R.string.last_phone_call_bparty_key);
int mLastCallState = prefs.getInt(_prefKey, LAUNCHED);
//Save current call sate for next call
_ed.putInt(_prefKey,state);
_ed.commit();
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING == state) {
Log.i(TAG, " >> RINGING, number: " + incomingNumber);
}
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE == state && mLastCallState != LAUNCHED ) {
//when this state occurs, and your flag is set, restart your app
if (incomingNumber.equals(_bPartyNumber) == true) {
//Call relates to last app initiated call
Intent _startMyActivity =
myActivity.mApp
.getPackageManager()
.getLaunchIntentForPackage(
myActivity.mApp.getResources()
.getString(R.string.figjam_package_path));
_startMyActivity.setAction(
myActivity.mApp.getResources()
.getString(R.string.main_show_phone_call_list));
myActivity.mApp
.startActivity(_startMyActivity);
Log.i(TAG, "IDLE >> Starting MyActivity with intent");
}
else
Log.i(TAG, "IDLE after calling "+incomingNumber);
}
}
}
add these to strings.xml
<string name="main_show_phone_call_list">android.intent.action.SHOW_PHONE_CALL_LIST</string>
<string name="last_phone_call_state_key">activityLpcsKey</string>
<string name="last_phone_call_bparty_key">activityLpbpKey</string>
and something like this in your Manifest if you need to return to the look and feel before the call
<activity android:label="#string/app_name" android:name="com.myPackage.myActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SHOW_PHONE_CALL_LIST" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
and put these in your 'myActivity'
public static Activity mApp=null; //Before onCreate()
...
onCreate( ... ) {
...
if (mApp == null) mApp = this; //Links your resources to other classes
...
//Test if we've been called to show phone call list
Intent _outcome = getIntent();
String _phoneCallAction = mApp.getResources().getString(R.string.main_show_phone_call_list);
String _reqAction = _outcome.getAction();//Can be null when no intent involved
//Decide if we return to the Phone Call List view
if (_reqAction != null &&_reqAction.equals(_phoneCallAction) == true) {
//DO something to return to look and feel
}
...
myListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { //Act on item when selected
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> a, View v, int position, long id) {
myListView.moveToPosition(position);
String _bPartyNumber = "tel:"+myListView.getString(myListView.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
//Provide an initial state for the listener to access.
initialiseCallStatePreferences(_bPartyNumber);
//Setup the listener so we can restart myActivity
EndCallListener _callListener = new EndCallListener();
TelephonyManager _TM = (TelephonyManager)mApp.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
_TM.listen(_callListener, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE);
Intent _makeCall = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(_bPartyNumber));
_makeCall.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.android.phone","com.android.phone.OutgoingCallBroadcaster"));
startActivity(_makeCall);
finish();
//Wait for call to enter the IDLE state and then we will be recalled by _callListener
}
});
}//end of onCreate()
use this to initilaise the behaviour for your onClick in myActivity e.g. after onCreate()
private void initialiseCallStatePreferences(String _BParty) {
final int LAUNCHED = -1;
SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(
mApp.getBaseContext());
SharedPreferences.Editor _ed = prefs.edit();
String _prefKey = mApp.getString(R.string.last_phone_call_state_key),
_bPartyKey = mApp.getString(R.string.last_phone_call_bparty_key);
//Save default call state before next call
_ed.putInt(_prefKey,LAUNCHED);
_ed.putString(_bPartyKey,_BParty);
_ed.commit();
}
You should find that clicking your list of phone numbers finishes your activty, makes the call to the number and returns to your activty when the call ends.
Making a call from outside your app while it's still around won't restart your activty (unless it's the same as the last BParty number called).
:)
you can use startActivityForResult()
This is solution from my point of view:
ok.setOnClickListener(this);
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if(view == ok){
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:" + num));
activity.startActivity(intent);
}
Of course in Activity (class) definition you have to implement View.OnClickListener .
Here is my example, first the user gets to write in the number he/she wants to dial and then presses a call button and gets directed to the phone. After call cancelation the user gets sent back to the application. In order to this the button needs to have a onClick method ('makePhoneCall' in this example) in the xml. You also need to register the permission in the manifest.
Manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
Activity
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class PhoneCall extends Activity {
EditText phoneTo;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_phone_call);
phoneTo = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.phoneNumber);
}
public void makePhoneCall(View view) {
try {
String number = phoneTo.getText().toString();
Intent phoneIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
phoneIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:"+ number));
startActivity(phoneIntent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(PhoneCall.this,
"Call failed, please try again later!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
XML
<EditText
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="phone"
android:ems="10"
android:id="#+id/phoneNumber"
android:layout_marginTop="67dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<Button
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Call"
android:id="#+id/makePhoneCall"
android:onClick="makePhoneCall"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent phoneIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
phoneIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:91-000-000-0000"));
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(mContext, Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return;
}
startActivity(phoneIntent);
}
If you are going to use a listener you will need to add this permission to the manifest as well.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
Inside PhoneStateListener after seeing the call is finished better use:
Intent intent = new Intent(CallDispatcherActivity.this, CallDispatcherActivity.class);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
Where CallDispatcherActivity is the activity where the user has launched a call (to a taxi service dispatcher, in my case). This just removes Android telephony app from the top, the user gets back instead of ugly code I saw here.
To return to your Activity, you will need to listen to TelephonyStates. On that listener you can send an Intent to re-open your Activity once the phone is idle.
At least thats how I will do it.
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:"+number));
startActivity(callIntent);
**Add permission :**
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
Try using:
finish();
at the end of activity. It will redirect you to your previous activity.
When PhoneStateListener is used, one need to make sure PHONE_STATE_IDLE following a PHONE_STATE_OFFHOOK is used to trigger the action to be done after the call. If the trigger happens upon seeing PHONE_STATE_IDLE, you will end up doing it before the call. Because you will see the state change PHONE_STATE_IDLE -> PHONE_STATE_OFFHOOK -> PHONE_STATE_IDLE.
// in setonclicklistener put this code:
EditText et_number=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.id_of_edittext);
String my_number = et_number.getText().toString().trim();
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(my_number));
startActivity(callIntent);
// give permission for call in manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"></uses-permission>
#Dmitri Novikov, FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP clears any active instance on top of the new one. So, it may end the old instance before it completes the process.
Add this is your xml: android:autoLink="phone"
Steps:
1)Add the required permissions in the Manifest.xml file.
<!--For using the phone calls -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
<!--For reading phone call state-->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
2)Create a listener for the phone state changes.
public class EndCallListener extends PhoneStateListener {
#Override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING == state) {
}
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK == state) {
//wait for phone to go offhook (probably set a boolean flag) so you know your app initiated the call.
}
if(TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE == state) {
//when this state occurs, and your flag is set, restart your app
Intent i = context.getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage(
context.getPackageName());
//For resuming the application from the previous state
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
//Uncomment the following if you want to restart the application instead of bring to front.
//i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
context.startActivity(i);
}
}
}
3)Initialize the listener in your OnCreate
EndCallListener callListener = new EndCallListener();
TelephonyManager mTM = (TelephonyManager)this.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
mTM.listen(callListener, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE);
but if you want to resume your application last state or to bring it back from the back stack, then replace FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP with FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP
Reference this Answer
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent .setData(Uri.parse("tel:+91-XXXXXXXXX"));
startActivity(callIntent );
When starting your call, it looks fine.
There is a difference between android 11+ and down in bringing your app to the front though.
Android 10 or less you need to start a new intent, android 11+ you simply use BringTaskToFront
In the call state IDLE:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 11) {
ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager) activity.getSystemService(Activity.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
am.moveTaskToFront(MyActivity.MyActivityTaskId, ActivityManager.MOVE_TASK_WITH_HOME);
} else {
Intent intent = new Intent(activity, MyActivity.class);
activity.startActivity(intent);
}
I set the MyActivity.MyActivityTaskId when making the call on my activity like so, it this doesnt work, set this variable on the parent activity page of the page you want to get back to.
MyActivity.MyActivityTaskId = this.getTaskId();
MyActivityTaskId is a static variable on my activity class
public static int MyActivityTaskId = 0;
I hope this will work for you. I use the above code a bit differently, I open my app as soon as the call is answered sothat the user can see the details of the caller.
I have set some stuff in the AndroidManifest.xml as well:
/*Dont really know if this makes a difference*/
<activity android:name="MyActivity" android:taskAffinity="" android:launchMode="singleTask" />
and permissions:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_TASKS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REORDER_TASKS" />
Please ask questions if or when you get stuck.
To call from app use simple intent for call, after that if you want to listen the call status then use below code
1] implement this in your class -
implements AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener
2] Add below code with overridden method
AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager) getSystemService(AUDIO_SERVICE); //public static final String AUDIO_SERVICE = "audio";
audioManager = (AudioManager) getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
assert audioManager != null;
audioManager.requestAudioFocus(this, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,
AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN);
#Override
public void onAudioFocusChange(int focusChange) {
switch (focusChange) {
case AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_LOSS: {
//here you can pause your playing audio
break;
}
case AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_LOSS_TRANSIENT: {
//here you can pause your playing audio
break;
}
case AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_LOSS_TRANSIENT_CAN_DUCK: {
break;
}
case AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN: {
//here you will return back to the activity when your call is finsihed
//resume your audio here
break;
}
}
}
3]Add this
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
audioManager.abandonAudioFocus(this);
}
I'm new to android and is currently developing a quest/tresurehunt application. It is a prototype and is going to be evaluated in the field and i would therefore like to implement some sort of cheat to skip checkpoints if the application should crash during the tests.
My application work the way that when you select a quest a activity will be loaded to handle all checkpoints and the user location(ActivityAdapter.java). This activity will open the diffrent navigation tool activities and pass information to them based on the next checkpont using intent. I have implemented a long press event in the app i would like to activate the skip/cheat. My problem is that i can't figure out how to do this.
Location changed event of ActivityAdapter.java:
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
location.distanceBetween(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), lat, lng, dist);
if (dist[0]<= 10) {
if (cid == checkpoints.size()) {
Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityAdapter.this, SuccessActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("title", checkpoints.get(cid).get("title"));
startActivity(intent);
} else {
new loadAndStartQuest().execute();
}
}
}
loadAndStartQuest() just find the next checkpoint and start the right activity (navigationtool). I have tryed creating a object of the ActivityAdapter and set a variable and add it to the the if statement which did not work. I guess it is because it will create another instance of the activity and not affect the current/running one. So how would you communicate between two running activities?
To send data from Activity1 to running Activity2, you must pass through the next steps:
In Manifest.xml set launch mode "singleTask" for Activity2
<activity android:name="Activity2" android:launchMode="singleTask">
Put extras and start Activity2 from Activity1 (if Activity2 was started before, intent will be sended to existing instance).
Intent intent = new Intent(getContext(), Activity2.class);
intent.putExtra("CHECK_POINT", checkPointData);
startActivity(intent)
Override method onNewIntent() in Activity2
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
super.onNewIntent(intent);
setIntent(intent);
onNewCheckPoint();
}
private void onNewCheckPoint(){
Intent intent = getIntent();
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
//in this moment, you can process data, like you want.
}
