I thought I will post this here since I spent some time looking into why my intent filter did not work. It turns out that it was working all along but matches are exact. Thus if you register your intent for http://myexample.com and you click in http://myexample.com/blah it will not work. Adding the following fixed … Read more
If you want to diable processing of NFC discovery events (NDEF_DISCOVERED, TECH_DISCOVERED, TAG_DISCOVERED) while a certain activity is in the foreground, you would register that activity for the foreground dispatch system. That activity can then ignore these events (which it would receive in its onNewIntent() method. This will prevent NFC discovery events to be delivered … Read more
In addition to Samuh’s answer (you need to do an object comparison on the action string, or just do no comparison), in your manifest file you have misspelled SMS_RECEIVED.
You can share plain text with the following code String shareBody = “Here is the share content body”; Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND); sharingIntent.setType(“text/plain”); sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, “Subject Here”); sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, shareBody); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent, getResources().getString(R.string.share_using))); So your full code (your image + text) becomes private Uri imageUri; private Intent intent; imageUri = Uri.parse(“android.resource://” + getPackageName() + “/drawable/” + “ic_launcher”); … Read more
For anyone else coming across this thread I had this issue and was pulling my hair out. I had the service declaration OUTSIDE of the ‘< application>’ end tag DUH! RIGHT: <manifest xmlns:android=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android” …> … <application android:icon=”@drawable/icon” android:label=”@string/app_name”> <activity …> … </activity> <service android:name=”.Service”/> <receiver android:name=”.Receiver”> <intent-filter> … </intent-filter> </receiver> </application> <uses-permission android:name=”…” /> WRONG … Read more
If your receiver is registered in the manifest, and your app is not running, a new process will be created to handle the broadcast. If you register it in code, it’s tied to the life of the activity/service you registered it in. For some broadcasts, it doesn’t really make sense to create a new app … Read more
Not for camera but for other files.. In my device I have ES File Explorer installed and This simply thing works in my case.. Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); intent.setType(“file/*”); startActivityForResult(intent, PICKFILE_REQUEST_CODE);
You need to set it up like this : <intent-filter> <action android:name=”android.intent.action.VIEW” /> <category android:name=”android.intent.category.DEFAULT” /> <category android:name=”android.intent.category.BROWSABLE” /> <data android:host=”example.com” android:pathPrefix=”/someresource/” android:scheme=”http” /> <data android:host=”www.example.com” android:pathPrefix=”/someresource/” android:scheme=”http” /> </intent-filter> Notice that in your case, you would need to use android:pathPrefix instead of android:path.
Here’s a working example: <uses-permission android:name=”android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE” /> <receiver android:name=”.receiver.ConnectivityReceiver”> <intent-filter> <action android:name=”android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE” /> </intent-filter> </receiver> . public class ConnectivityReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Log.d(ConnectivityReceiver.class.getSimpleName(), “action: ” + intent.getAction()); } }
Use an android.intent.action.VIEW of category android.intent.category.BROWSABLE. From Romain Guy’s Photostream app’s AndroidManifest.xml, <activity android:name=”.PhotostreamActivity” android:label=”@string/application_name”> <!– … –> <intent-filter> <action android:name=”android.intent.action.VIEW” /> <category android:name=”android.intent.category.DEFAULT” /> <category android:name=”android.intent.category.BROWSABLE” /> <data android:scheme=”http” android:host=”flickr.com” android:pathPrefix=”/photos/” /> <data android:scheme=”http” android:host=”www.flickr.com” android:pathPrefix=”/photos/” /> </intent-filter> </activity> Once inside you’re in the activity, you need to look for the action, and then … Read more
