Ok, im feeling really stupid right now, for some reason i cannot figure out how to create just a signal application that when the user clicks the icon from the home screen, it opens a different application. For instance, you click on my app and it takes you to your email icon, or settings or something along those lines.
Here is some code i got so far, but its not doing anything when i open the application, just showing blank white screen with the label of my application. JAVA File package com.xxx.xxx.xxx; import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Intent; import android.content.pm. PackageManager; public class MainActivity extends Activity { public void LaunchComponent (String packageName, String name){ Intent task = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN); PackageManager manager = getPackageManager (); task = manager.getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.xxx.xxx.xxx"); task.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME); startActivity(task); } } i do NOT have a layout file, i didnt think i would need one, since i am not creating a UI at all. Any recommendations would help alot, i've tried a few links, and i just cannot get something to compile right. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2780102/open-another-application-from-your-own-intent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
