I do not think that's going to work - use the Android notiffication facility
that all the other Android applications use. I see those little icons in the
top left as applications raising their hands to let me know they have some
new status I may be interested in. That's the polite way - not barging up in
front of me with a popup while I've doing things that are more inportant to
me at the time.

Thanks, both of all.

Simply, I want to pop up a dialog on the current visible Activity, even if the 
Activity belongs to other application. And at this time, if my application is 
running on background (invisible), don't display any Activities (even if the 
topmost Activity) of my applicatioin except to pop up a dialog.

Let me get this straight - you want to force a popup dialog in front of the 
user's current activity after they've made the deliberate decision to navigate 
away from your app?


Why, exactly, would you want to do this?

[android-developers] How to show a dialog even if the Activity is in background

2010-06-04 Thread Jiang
If my Activity is switched to background, when something takes place, I want to 
show a dialog without switching the Activity to foreground. In other word, no 
matter what application is running on foreground, use can watch the dialog.

Thanks.
-Jiang.
