[android-developers] Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag
Hi, I am getting many reports of crashes with this error condition: android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag. Is this really what you want? The problem is that the reported stack does not made reference to any line on my own code: 0 android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag. Is this really what you want? 1 at android.app.ContextImpl.startActivity(ContextImpl.java:618) 2 at android.content.ContextWrapper.startActivity(ContextWrapper.java:258) 3 at android.webkit.CallbackProxy.uiOverrideUrlLoading(CallbackProxy.java:236) 4 at android.webkit.CallbackProxy.handleMessage(CallbackProxy.java:331) 5 at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 6 at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 7 at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3652) 8 at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 9 at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:507) 10 at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:839) 11 at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:597) 12 at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) So I am having real troubles to find the source of the problem. Does anyone have any idea on what methods called from my code may raise these kind of errors?

[android-developers] Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag ?
Hi all,
I tried to create a edittextbox, and button next to it, in the status
bar. !!
I created it and tried to launch the browser activity, when somebody
enters a URL in the textbox & click that button.
I get runtime exception as below.Can anyone please help what is the
issue with this exception ?
I know that Status bar is not a seperate activity. It is part of
'PhoneWindow'. But then i couldnt figure out what is the issue ?
