[android-developers] Adding Menu Item in built-in Applications

2011-07-26 Thread Marcos Paulo
Hi guys,

I wanted to put an menu item in the browser, mail and sms built-in
application of
Android that would send the selected text to my app. I searched about it in
the
web and I found out that this isn't possible, but, there is one person that
said that
if my application is in background I still can access the key events of the
device
and put an option or something like that on the screen so I can send that
selected
text to my application.

I wanted to know if anyone here already tried this, is it really impossible?
If it is,
do you guys have any idea of how can I workaround this problem with the
possibilities
that the sdk provides me?

Thank you guys.

As to what you described, hopefully yes it is impossible.


  If it is, do you guys have any idea of how can I workaround this problem

 To what you actually want to do, search for share intent.

No One?
