[android-developers] BadTokenException + BACK
I know this topic was asked trillions of times throughout the web, but there is no one place answering it. in my application, I have a welcome screen. when I run the program end- to-end everything is just fine - open/close activities and show dialogs of all sorts. but, when I reach the welcome screen and from there pressing the BACK button - everything becomes messy: 1) the dialog i want to show cause BadTokenException (i'm using this and not getApplicationContext() ). 2) I tried use try/catch to catch the exception - and it really passed the showDialog line. but then, in the 2nd. run, when reaching a showDialog expression, it throws IllegalStateException: View.com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$DecorView@44a59830 has already been added to the window manager. moreover, I understand that pressing HOME causes the onPause in the activity, while BACK causes onDestroy, but what goes wrong ?? i'm trying to fix that issue for more than a week, but with no success. any ideas ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] showDialog's BadTokenException + BACK button
hey, I know you've all had enough with this exception. there are trillions of threads in many forums about this exception (yes, 'm using "this" and not getApplicationContext() in showDialog) - but I couldnt find a single solution for that. if I run my code everything is OK. once I press the "back" button, as far as I nderstood it goes through the entire activity destruction (onPause-->onStop-->onDestroy). when I start the application again, when I want to show a dialog using showDialog, I get the BadTokedException. I can post some of the code if nessacery, but its more a general problem. 10x, for any reply.

[android-developers] isFinishing() & BadTokenException - very weird !!
hey, I have a very weird behaviour, which I cant find its cause. the last thing I do on onCreate() is to call a certain method. in that method i use **progressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, null, "Registering with Moish'd! server", true, false);**. on the first run i get BadTokenException: Unable to add window on the _progressDialog_ line. the second run it passes it. I read in forums that if the activity is in the middle of "finish" process than it might cause such an excetion. after a long debugging tests, i tried asking for isFinishing(). something odd accoured - before calling the method, **isFinishing() returns false**.in the first line of the method I ask again and now **isFinishing() returns true**. how can it be ?!? in the last line before entering a method its not "finishing" and in the first line of the method its suddenly "finishing", when NOTHING is happening in between (certainly not calling finish()). anyone ?!? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
