Create a custom facade for the built in SL4A RPC server as explained here: 
https://code.google.com/p/android-python27/wiki/TutorialHowToCreateCustomRpcFacade

And POST the result back to Java from you Python script 
e.g. droid.myResult(xxx)

Hi,

I have to execute a Python script from my service. I need to wait till the

That is not supported. IMHO, it does not even make any sense. Why do

[android-developers] startActivityForResult() from service

Hi, I have defined a service.

I need to call startActivityForResult(intent,REQUEST_CODE) from this.  I 
saw 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3448485/startactivityforresult-from-a-service

But can someone explain me? Thanks!

[android-developers] startActivityForResult using android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity

[Amy Chen]

Hi,

Would anyone know if I'm doing something wrong? 
I'm trying to call my library's activity (similar to listactivity) from a 
fragment in the main project, and return to the main project upon selecting 
an item from the library's activity.
All the code runs normally up to selecting the item in the library's 
activity. onItemSelected runs, but the onActivityResult(int requestCode, 
int resultCode, Intent data) from the main project doens't get called, and 
the main project seems to have disappeared once the library's activity 
finished.
Here is the simplified code:

>From main project (android.support.v4.app.Fragment)
public void onClick(View v) {
switch(v.getId()) {
case R.id.btnFind:
   startActivityForResult(newIntent, 
com.kitten.library.intent.kittenlabs_db_request_code);
   break;
}
 }

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent 
data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

/* code to handle result
*/
}

>From library (android.app.Activity)
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, 
long id) {
//move cursor to selected item
c.moveToPosition(position);

//get row id
int rowID = c.getInt(c.getColumnIndex("_id"));

//construct result uri
Uri outURI = ContentUris.withAppendedId(this.db_uri, rowID);
Intent outData = new Intent();
outData.setData(outURI);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, outData);
finish();
}

I've tried to put onActivityResult in the FragmentActivity class as well, 
but it does not get called either. Once "finish();" is called from the 
library activity, the main project is not visible (I see the Android home).

Thank you very much in advance,
Amy

[android-developers] startActivityforResult does not return any result on Samsung Galaxy

[Tanja Zimmermann]

The following Code works for HTC but not on Samsung Galaxy:

final Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
Uri.fromFile(getTempFile(this)) );
startActivityForResult(intent, TAKE_PHOTO_CODE);

private File getTempFile(Context context){
File path = new File( Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
context.getPackageName() );
if(!path.exists()){
path.mkdir();
}
return new File(path, "image.tmp");
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
switch(requestCode){
case TAKE_PHOTO_CODE:

final File file = getTempFile(this);
captureBmp = Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(),
Uri.fromFile(file) );
int width = captureBmp.getWidth();
int height = captureBmp.getHeight();
int newWidth = width - ((width*40)/100);
int newHeight = height - ((height*40)/100);
float scaleWidth = ((float) newWidth) / width;
float scaleHeight = ((float) newHeight) / height;
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.postScale(scaleWidth, scaleHeight);
resizedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(captureBmp, 0, 0,
width, height, matrix, true);
bmd = new BitmapDrawable(resizedBitmap);
ImageView iv = (ImageView) findViewById (R.id.iv_foto_beleg);
 iv.setImageDrawable(bmd);
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getPreferences(MODE_PRIVA
long id = sharedPreferences.getLong("id", 0);
break;
 }
 }
After press saving the camera activity does not turn back to the
activity, which launched the it. The picture is not on sdcard. Is
there anybody can help? Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] startActivityForResult does not return control to calling Activity

[Anirvan]

i have a tab layout. in one of the Activity's corresponding to a tab,
i use "startActivityForResult" to launch another activity to do
something. Once the tasks in the new activity are done, i invoke the
"finish()" method to return to the tab Activity which launched it.

strangely enough, when the new activity is finished, instead of
showing the tab activity which launched it, the entire app simply
exits. in the tab activity class i've overriden the "onActivityResult"
method, and have a log statement right at the start. This log
statement does not get printed.

so the gist of the problem is that when i launch an activity for
result, and then finish it, the control does not return back to the
activity which launched the other one - instead the app exits.

is there some elementary mistake that i'm making here?
thanks for your time.

In the upper right corner of API page there is a scrollbox you can use to
filter the minimum API level you want to see.
Hope this helps. :)

[android-developers] startActivityForResult

[kypriakos]

Hi all,

I am writing apps for some old phones (Android 1.6). I can call
startActivity(intent) without issues but the
startActivityForResult(intent, int) fails on compile? Was this method
introduced after 1.6? How can one see what's been deprecated across
versions?

Thanks

[android-developers] startActivityForResult weirdness

[Kevin]

I'm writing an app and would like to redirect the user from the main
activity to enter a passcode. I've been able to run the passcode
activity from my settings/preferences activity no problem:
onActivityResult() gets called and everything works fine. From the
main activity (the one set as MAIN in AndroidManifest.xml), though, it
won't call onActivityResult(). I logged everything very closely and
the passcode activity is doing the same thing in both cases
(setResult() followed by finish()).

I noticed the RedirectEnter activity in the API demos, which is the
one set as MAIN, does not actually do the redirect either, the
redirect is in RedirectMain which is called only when you push the Go
button.

Is there some rule that says the MAIN activity cannot redirect?
Currently I'm formulating how to reorganize my app such that the
program doesn't ask for a passcode on the main screen, but that's
really not the most elegant solution.

I could post code but I've tried so many variations that I'm not sure
which one is best to post. I've tried delaying the call to the
passcode activity to later in the startup sequence (various points
from onCreate() through onAttachedToWindow()) to no avail.
onActivityResult() doesn't get called.

Thanks,

--Kevin

[android-developers] startActivityForResult for Contact picker under tab

[poj]

Dear All,

I have main activity that create three tabs like this

MainAct extends TabActivity{
...
onCreate(){
TabHost thost =getTabHost();
TabHost.TabSpec tspec;


Intent CIntent = new Intent().setClass(this, ClassB.class);
tspec = thost.newTabSpec("contact").setIndicator("Contact",
getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.contact))
  .setContent(CIntent);
thost.addTab(tspec);
thost.addTab(tspec);
}
}

and ClassB will start contact intent like this

ClassB extends Activity{
...
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
startActivityForResult(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI)
, 1000);
}
...
}

but contact intent start outside tab e.g. no tab on top of it. Is it
possible to start contact intent under tab activity?

Regards,
poj

Re: [android-developers] startActivityForResult error

[Carmen Delessio]

If my manifest looks like this:
 







I would create the intent like this (Bundle not required):
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b = new Bundle();
Intent i = new Intent();
b.putString("Some data","data for this
activity");
i = new Intent(".PageTwo");
i.putExtras(b);
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_CREATE);

Somewhere in your PageTwo Activity, I would expect to see:

setResult(RESULT_OK, i);  // where I is an
intent containing a bundle of data.  of just setResult(RESULT_OK) or
setResult(RESULT_CANCEL)
finish();

Somewhere in the calling activity, I would expect to see:
protected void  onActivityResult  (int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent
data){
if (requestCode==PICK_PHOTO){
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {

[android-developers] startActivityForResult returns result BEFORE activity starts.

[Nathan]

OK, I'm stuck.

I call startActivityForResult. Based on everything I've read, this
should return a result after the activity calls finish().

But it doesn't.OnActivityResult() is called with the correct request
code IMMEDIATELY after startActivityForResult is called. Based on
debugging, this is happening before DownloadActivity.onCreate() is
called. If I add a default constructor to DownloadActivity, it also
happens before the constructor is called.

OnActivityResult is called.

Here are the relevant lines of code, both of them:

Intent intent = new Intent(this,DownloadActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, DOWNLOAD_ACTIVITY_RESULT 
);

Since the ApiDemos example does work, I checked to see the manifest on
the SendResult Activity. I found it was very simple and changed mine
to match, but that didn't help.





This is the stack trace when OnActivityResult is called.

MyActivity.onActivityResult(int, int, Intent) line: 330
MyActivity(Activity).dispatchActivityResult(String, int, int, Intent)
line: 3828
ActivityThread.deliverResults(ActivityThread$ActivityRecord, List)
line: 3310
ActivityThread.handleSendResult(ActivityThread$ResultData) line: 3356
ActivityThread.access$2700(ActivityThread, ActivityThread$ResultData)
line: 119
ActivityThread$ResultData(ActivityThread$H).handleMessage(Message)
line: 1878
ActivityThread$H(Handler).dispatchMessage(Message) line: 99
Looper.loop() line: 123
ActivityThread.main(String[]) line: 4338
Method.invokeNative(Object, Object[], Class, Class[], Class, int,
boolean) line: not available [native method]
Method.invoke(Object, Object...) line: 521
ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run() line: 860
ZygoteInit.main(String[]) line: 618
NativeStart.main(String[]) line: not available [native method]

Can anyone make any suggestions? I know I haven't given you much to go
on, but I don't have any more. If I can't fix this, I can only
conclude that I can't use startActivityForResult, because it fails for
unknown reasons that I can't explain, even if it works just great for
all other developers.

I would not use onPause() for your setResult()/finish() call. First, I
think that is too late for the setResult() logic. Second, onPause() will
also be invoked at other times (e.g., when the user takes a phone call).

If you want to set the result when the use presses the BACK button, then
set the result when the user presses the BACK button, by implementing
onBackPressed() in newer versions of Android or onKeyDown() in older
versions of Android.

Create a fresh Intent (via new Intent()) and see if that helps.

[android-developers] startActivityForResult

[Pierre Henry]

Encoutered a tricky result using startActivityForResult from an
Activity

In the called Activity , I set result like that:
__
setResult(RESULT_OK, getIntent().putExtra(getPackageName()+"values",
values));
__

When running the on ActivityResult, the extra has disappeared from
intent in the method *onActivityResult*

In the api doc, it is telling that package name must be used , so I
used it (see code upwards ).

So why is that ?

[android-developers] startActivityForResult & singleTop.

[Keean Schupke]

I need to create an activity that can be "singleTop" so that multiple
intents get sent to the "onNewIntent" method without restarting the
activity.

I also need this activity to return a result. The basic behaviour is:


Activity "A" calls startActivityForResult on "B" one or more times
(providing updated information to "B"). When the user selects the
result from "B" it should return directly to "A".

I do not want the activity-transition animation to play each time "A"
updates "B" with new information.

How can I do this?


Cheers,
Keean.

Instead of calling setResult()/finish() in a list item click,
startActivityForResult() the next level down in the hierarchy. Only the
leaf should call setResult()/finish() in a list item click. All branches
of the hierarchy should call setResult()/finish() in their
onActivityResult(), forwarding the leaf's result Intent along.

[android-developers] StartActivityForResult

[Business Talk]

I am using ListActivities to drill down into a hierarchy; artist,
album and song. One activity per hierarchy. So, from the main
activity  I start the ArtistActivity with the StartActivityForResult
method and when the an artist is selected I call the

protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long
id) {

setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, results);
finish();

}

to return the results. Than the main activity receives results from
the ArtistsActivity in the onActivityResult method and starts the next
hierarchy’s activity, AlbumActivity, in the same way as the previous
activity, on so on. It works fine except that when calling finish
method the hierarchy activity is removed from the stack. So, it makes
it impossible to backtrack to the previous hierarchy since it’s not
there anymore. For example, I can’t backtrack from AlbumActivity to
the ArtistsActivity since it has been removed from the stack.  My
question is; is there any way to leave the hierarchy activities on the
stack?

[android-developers] startActivityForResult and concurrent Activities

[abnormative]

I'm trying to understand the limits of startActivityForResult(), so I
can simplify my onActivityResult() logic.

An Activity can make back-to-back calls to startActivityForResult() in
a single method execution, seemingly kicking off multiple concurrent
sub-Activities. The startActivityForResult() method doesn't complain.
A sub-Activity will return a successful result in at least some cases
(I've played with this). Maybe that's only true for Activities that
don't have a GUI, such as TextToSpeech.Engine.ACTION_CHECK_TTS_DATA?

Are such sub-Activities really being executed concurrently? Or is
Android maybe queueing the requests for serial execution? Or...?

Some "best practices" questions:
1) If it is indeed possible to kick off concurrent sub-Activities, are
there situations where that's actually a good thing to do?
2) Is a non-GUI Activity sometimes a good implementation strategy, for
certain problems?

-Mark

[android-developers] startActivityForResult in onResume

[skyman]

Hello,

I have Action which can obtain data from two sources - from Intent's
extra and when there is no data it starts new anctivity and takes
results from it.

In the second case it tooks very long to do startActivityForResult.
It's faster even when i remove startActivityForResult from onResume
and run it from menu, but it's unacceptable for end-user.

This second Activity (started using startActivityForResult) has
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent" maybe it's the
problem.

There is also another strange thing - when I start that transcluent
activity from menu i can see "through" it (as I wanted), but when i
run it from startActivityForResult translucent space is black.

Regs,

Skyman

[android-developers] startActivityForResult/onActivityResult question

[Tom Opgenorth]

Hello all,
I'm new to Android development, and am a bit confused here. I'm
hoping someone can help me out.  Please forgive me as I cross post
this to android-developers - I tried on android-begginers last week
but got no response.


Anyway, I've got a very simple Activity with one EditText and one Button.
Lets call it MyActivity.  Now, when I click on the button on
MyActivity, I want to take a picture using the camera.  For the sake
of this e-mail, lets call the activity that gets spawned when I click
on the button CameraActivity.

Here is how I've setup my button:

   Button takePictureButton = (Button)
this.findViewById(R.id.receipt_take_picture_button);
   takePictureButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
   public void onClick(View v) {
   ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
   values.put(Media.TITLE, "IMAGE");
   values.put(Media.DESCRIPTION, "Image
Captured by Camera");
   Uri uri =
getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
   Intent i = new
Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
   i.putExtra("output", uri);
   startActivityForResult(i,
ACTIVITY_TAKE_PICTURE_WITH_INTENT);
   }
   });

As I understand it, click the button will cause MyActivity to start up
CameraActivity, which is just the default camera application, to take
a picture.  Because I've used startActivityForResult, when
CameraActivity finishes, MyActivity should be notified via it's
onActivityResult.  Below is how I've coded it up:

I've defined my onActivityResult as follows:

   @Override
   protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int
resultCode, Intent data) {
   super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
   switch (requestCode) {
   case (ACTIVITY_TAKE_PICTURE_WITH_INTENT):
   Log.d(TAG, "WOW!");
   default:
   break;
   }
   }

So, what has me confused is this:  I would expect onActivityResult to
be called AFTER I take a picture, i.e. when I click on the picture
button.  Instead, it seems to get called immediately:  I click on the
takeAPictureButton, the camera activity starts up at about the same
time the code in onActivityResult gets fired.  Am I missing something
here?

TIA

[android-developers] startActivityForResult problems

[Geos]

Hello All

I've use startActivityForResult as it described in many examples but
it return 0 result code after start new Activity.

In main Activity I use such code for sub activity invocation

Intent iShowVideo = new Intent(EventHandling.this, 
ShowVideo.class);
startActivityForResult(iShowVideo, 
this.REQUEST_CODE_SHOW_VIDEO);

And such code for getting results.

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_SHOW_VIDEO){
if(resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED){
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, 
"onActivityResultCancel: " +
String.valueOf(resultCode), Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}else{
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, 
"onActivityResult: " +
String.valueOf(resultCode), Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}
}
}

Here is a part code from ShowVideo activity
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.showvideo);
//showDialog(DIALOG_YES_NO_MESSAGE);

Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnOK);
button.setOnClickListener(mOkListener);
button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnCancel);
button.setOnClickListener(mCancelListener);

//setResult(RESULT_OK, (new Intent()).setAction("Test!"));
}

private OnClickListener mOkListener = new OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v)
{
// To send a result, simply call setResult() before your
// activity is finished.
setResult(RESULT_OK, (new Intent()).setAction("Corky!"));
finish();
}
};

This code should work according many examples. And it should return
RESULT_OK after btnOK clicked but after I click this button it only
closes ShowVideo  Activity.

Please help.
