'Particular activity is not opening when app is in background or killed?
I want to open the NotificationActivity of my application when AppReceiver calls and triggered the onReceive method.
I have 2 Activities named MainActivity and NotificationActivity in my MainActivity there is a click event of a button when I click on it I have sent a call to my AppReceiver class and I get the call also but in my onReceive method I have written a Toast and an Intent to start my NotificationActivity class but it is not opening when my app is in background.
Here is my MainActivity class :
import static
com.example.fullscreennotificationtest.NotificationActivity.FULL_SCREEN_ACTION;
import static
com.example.fullscreennotificationtest.NotificationActivity.NOTIFICATION_ID;
import android.app.AlarmManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.Button;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.core.app.NotificationManagerCompat;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button btn_click_me;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
btn_click_me = findViewById(R.id.btn_click_me);
btn_click_me.setOnClickListener(v -> {
Intent intent = new Intent(FULL_SCREEN_ACTION, null, this, AppReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) this.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
if (alarmManager != null) {
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis() + 50, pendingIntent);
}
NotificationManagerCompat.from(this).cancel(NOTIFICATION_ID);
});
}
}
and here is my AppReceiver class :
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class AppReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i("TAG", "onReceive: "+intent.getAction());
if (NotificationActivity.FULL_SCREEN_ACTION.equals(intent.getAction())) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Called", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent intent1 = new Intent(context,NotificationActivity.class);
intent1.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(intent1);
}
}
}
Here is my NotificationActivity class :
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.core.app.NotificationCompat;
import androidx.core.app.NotificationManagerCompat;
import android.app.NotificationChannel;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.WindowManager;
public class NotificationActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String CHANNEL_ID = "my_channel";
static final String FULL_SCREEN_ACTION = "full_screen_action";
static final int NOTIFICATION_ID = 1;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_notification);
//set flags so activity is showed when phone is off (on lock screen)
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED
| WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TURN_SCREEN_ON
| WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
}
}
Here is my Menifest file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.fullscreennotificationtest">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_TASKS" />

<application

android:label="@string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/Theme.FullScreenNotificationTest">
<activity
android:name=".NotificationActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden"
android:excludeFromRecents="true"

<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"

android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver

android:name=".AppReceiver"
android:excludeFromRecents="true"
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"/>
</application>
