Device: Nexus One Firmware: 2.1 update 1 Platform 2.1, API: 7 I have seen it mentioned before that there's a difference between installing an app via Eclipse and via adb, but I need more clarification.
I have an app that starts a voice recognition activity in the main activity's onStart() method.. I'm planning to run this app from a Nexus One connected to a laptop via USB. I want this app to launch perhaps 100 times, each time restarting the voice recognition activity. When I install the app onto the Nexus One via Eclipse, I notice this behavior: - when the app is launched from the command line via "adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.voice/com.voice.VoiceSearch $1", the app runs with the voice recognition activity restarting each time. This is the behavior I want. - I also notice that after the app has run, I hit Home, then click on the app from the screen, the app will be in its last state, and the voice recognition activity will not restart. I specified finishOnTaskLaunch="true" in the manifest, so I thought the voice recognition activity would restart. When I package an app as per instructions and install it onto the device via adb install, I get this behavior: - when the app is launched from the command line, the voice recognition app will run the first time, but subsequent launches do not restart the voice recognition activity. The voice recognition activity just stays in its last state. I get the following message: Warning: Activity not started, its current task has been brought to the front - I also notice that after the app has run, I hit Home, then click on the app from the screen, the app will restart the voice recognition activity. By the way, this happens whether or not I have finishOnTaskLaunch="true" set in the manifest or not. What do I need to do so that I can launch the app from the command line via adb lots of times with the voice recognition activity restarting each time? I call this from the main activity's onStart(): private void startVoiceRecognitionActivity() { Intent intent= new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH); intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL, RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM); intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT, "Say something!"); startActivityForResult(intent, VOICE_RECOGNITION_REQUEST_CODE); waitForResults(); } Manifest: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.audience.android.voice" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0"> <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/ app_name"> <activity android:name=".VoiceSearch" android:finishOnTaskLaunch="true" android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:label="@string/app_name"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application> <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" / > </manifest> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
