Hi, I cant get this to work. I am trying this for the CALL_BUTTON and on the emulator.
Added the lines below to my manifest. Created the MyReceiver class just like you do here. Then trying to register the receiver in OnCreate: IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter ("android.intent.action.CAMERA_BUTTON"); Intent intnt = registerReceiver(mCallButtonIntentReceiver, filter); intnt always return null. What am I doing wrong here ? TIA Shimon On Nov 14, 10:09 pm, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks Guys.
