I have created the MainActivity for my Android studio project, but after creating it I am adding a Login screen that I want to be the starting activity when the app launches. I changed the AndroidManifest.xml file to include the correct intent-filters for the login activity.
The app launches correctly with the login activity, but the problem is that now when I proceed to the MainActivity the buttons and fragments inside of it don't work anymore. The buttons don't respond to being clicked, and the fragments just don't appear at all.
Here is my code for the Android manifest file. All I changed was I switched .Login and .MainActivity
When I switch them back everything in MainActivity works correctly.
Is there something else I need to change for all the functionality of MainActivity to work correctly, even when it's not the starting activity when the app launches?
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".Login">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<service android:name=".LocationService" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"></activity>
</application>

I am fresh new to Android development. I just started but when I try to run a basic app with only one button, the button just simply does not show in emulator.
I looked everywhere, even saw similar question on stackOverflow from 2 years ago but answers do not suit my problem
Please tell me what part of code should I add here or anything else to get my app going. Thanks!
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
I can't tell without showing your code. But I think you did not add constraints to your button.
Constraint Layout
i used webview to create app and implemented deep linking like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.ariagp.myapplication">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="https" android:host="mysitename.com" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
it will asking my for open with my application before open the links, but the problem is:
two applications will open in the phone task manager (the application does not open in the previous application which is running):
what is the solution?
Add android:launchMode="singleTask" in declared activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
And then, in your activity, you should override onNewIntent() method and you will get arguments there.
Ok, so you don't actually have a problem here.
This is just how deep links work. If you open one in a certain app, the deep link will open your app but in the same window the deep link was originally in.
Your app will have two instances in a way.
You could go to you web brower app and click share and any app that pops up. They all open in the web browsing app window. So there is nothing to worry about. I had the same problem myself before I realised that it is just how things work.
Some apps are just verified to open other apps if they implement the browsability.
Add android:launchMode="singleTask" in declared activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
And then, in your activity, you should override onNewIntent() method and call mNavController.handleDeepLink(intent) there.
It is worth mentioning that you are now able to get your arguments using, private val args: XFragmentArgs by navArgs()in your fragment.
I am trying to have a different app name for an Activity "My Profile Photo" but it does not seem to show up even when I have given android:label="My Profile Pic" to that particular activity
The Manifest File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.aditya.myprofile">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="My Profile">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".ProfilePhoto"
android:label="Profile Pic" ></activity>
</application>
</manifest>
The XML Design:
The Android App name space is empty
Where am I going wrong?
Try this add title through java code add this code in your activity like this
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("My Profile");
I think you need to set a theme to your activity in your manifest.
<activity android:name=".ProfilePhoto"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
android:label="#string/profilePicture></activity>
Another solution : in your activity in onCreate you need to call :
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Your Activity Title");
I have android:label="Name app" in <application
and android:label="Activity name" in <activity
(all in androidmanifest.xml)
and if i install this app on real device, this app have name "Activity name"
why ? How can i change app name ?

<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher2"
android:label="Dog"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".FirstActivity"
android:label="Cat"
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".secondActivity">
</activity>
</application>
and app still have name Cat in my phone
in phone menu, under icon this app
That is not the label of the application. That is the label of the specific activity that has the MAIN/LAUNCHER <intent-filter> in your manifest. If you want to change this label, change the android:label on that <activity> element.
The android:label on <application> serves as the default label (for <activity> elements that lack one) and is used in places like the Settings app.
I'm beginning to learn Android and have been reading the "Beginning Android 4 Application Development." (As well as downloading the relevant source code)..
However; I have been trying to create a very simple slideshow with a button labelled "Gallery" which will take me to a new Activity that will show a grid like layout for my photos. However, my application does not do this. When the button is pressed it either crashes the app or refuses to do anything at all.
Manifest
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="14"
android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/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>
<activity
android:label="Viwer"
android:name=".Viwer" >
<intent-filter >
<action android:name="com.example.viwer.Gallery" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I assume it's something simple but after looking at it for three hours I can't see what it is.
You need to add the Gallery activity to the Android Manifest
<activity
android:name=".Gallery"
android:label="Gallery"></activity>
In your manifest you register viewer activity in an intent-filter yet is not declare as a broadcast receiver.
Second event if it was a broadcast receiver it will never launch as you do not send any broadcast by calling startActivity
i think that what your trying to achieve is this:
Please try this:
ebutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,Viwer.calss )
startActivity(intent);
}
});
