I need to know how to make an application that I created in Android and made in Android Studio runs automatically when the device boots.
The only thing I have found is this guide https://codigofacilito.com/articulos/auto-ejecucion-de-una-aplicacion-al-inicio-de-un-depositivo-con-android but it does not run when the device starts.

I am trying to change the main activity in android to another activity and playing a video in the new activity. but, even I changed in the manifest the main activity, it didn't show me the video when I'm starting the app. I tried to Check in the Logcat if the activity is still launched, and i didn't see any message.

public class Entering extends AppCompatActivity {
VideoView videoView;
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_entering);
videoView= (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoV);
videoView.setVideoPath("res/raw/intrologo.3gp");
videoView.start();
while (videoView.isPlaying()){
Log.d("HEy","hey");
}
videoView.stopPlayback();
Intent i = new Intent(this,MainActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
}
Try this
In this code get video path from raw folder
String path = "android.resource://com.example.mta2223" + "/" + R.raw.intrologo;
videoView.setVideoPath(path);
videoView.start();
I am designing an android application in java and I would like it to launch when the smartphone starts up I of course registered a BroadcastReceiver for the BOOT event of my phone as explained here but it does not work on Android 10 if not for info it worked on Android 4.1.
Can you help me please ?
Here is my code:
Manifest :

}
}

Intent i = new Intent(context, PremiereActivite.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(i);
}
}
}
Cordially.
I have tried this on a few android phones with no luck (i did start the app once).
This was mostly generated from android studio 1.3.2 and from some questions like this and that and the other.
Perhaps someone can point out what i am doing wrong.
Thanks
edit: moved receiver inside app, but no joy.
edit2: added missing permissions for receiver. now seems to work on a nexus 4. but not on the kindle fire or the at&t tablets. although it seems to come right away if i press the circle icon on the azpen.
edit3: seems to work sometimes on the fires now.

Every Component must be declared inside application tag into manifest. Here you declared receiver outside of application tag. Read Structure of the Manifest File.
Correct manifest wil be
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="acme.startup" >
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver
android:name=".BootReceiver"
android:label="BootReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
You have to add permission to manifest file. Add this before your <application> tag :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
I am stuggling to get my intent started on boot, basically the service is not appearing in my running or cached processes. I know since 3.1 you must have an activity that has run for the service to work, so this is what I have
MainActivity
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class StartActivity extends Activity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = "Updater Started";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
startService(new Intent(this,UpdaterService.class));
finish();
}
}
My intent
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class StartIntent extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Intent myIntent = new Intent(context, UpdaterService.class);
context.startService(myIntent);
CharSequence text = "Updater Started";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
}
}
and finally my appmanifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.package.removed"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="10"
android:targetSdkVersion="19" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_SUPERUSER" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.NoDisplay">
<activity
android:name="com.package.removed.StartActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".StartIntent" android:exported="false" />
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
</intent-filter>
</application>
</manifest>
Basically my toast is never displayed, does anyone know what I have missed?
Your intent-filter is outside of the receiver. It should be like this:
<receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".StartIntent" android:exported="false" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
I want my application to be automatically launched when the system is started. Can anyone tell me how to do that?
Thanks in advance for the time you will spend trying to help me.
First, you need the permission in your manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
Also, in your manifest, define your service and listen for the boot-completed action:
<service android:name=".MyService" android:label="My Service">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.myapp.MyService" />
</intent-filter>
</service>
<receiver
android:name=".receiver.StartMyServiceAtBootReceiver"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true"
android:label="StartMyServiceAtBootReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Then you need to define the receiver that will get the BOOT_COMPLETED action and start your service.
public class StartMyServiceAtBootReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if ("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED".equals(intent.getAction())) {
Intent serviceIntent = new Intent("com.myapp.MySystemService");
context.startService(serviceIntent);
}
}
}
And now your service should be running when the phone starts up.
Here is Complete working Example Code,
AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

}
}
BroadcastReceiver Code,
package com.practice;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
public class AutoStart extends BroadcastReceiver
{
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
System.out.println ( "Application Started" );
// put your TimerTask calling class here
try
{
Intent myIntent = new Intent ( context, AutoStartExampleActivity.class );
myIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(myIntent);
}
catch ( Exception e )
{
System.out.println ( " Error while Starting Activity " + e.toString() );
}
}
}
