So basically, i got a list view that shows a list of bands.
When i press on one of the bands in the list, it creates a band profile page via an adapter.
In this layout, i got a play button, which starts a MediaPlayer service and play a song.
So far, so good.
The problem is, im trying to update the seekBar, located in the band profile page (created by the adapter mentioned above), from the MediaPlayer service Java file, but i'm unable to reach it.
i'm trying to use :
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_singleband, null, false);
seekBar = (SeekBar) layout.findViewById(R.id.seekBarBand);
but it seems that it uses another "instance" of the view, and not the one i'm currently viewing.
Here is the full MusicService Java file:
public class MusicService extends Service {
SeekBar seekBar;
Handler handler;
Runnable runnable;
NotificationManager nMN;
TextView BandName;
String songLink;
String songName;
String bandName;
String SongPlaying="";
String BandPlaying="";
public static MediaPlayer mp;
public static Boolean mpState = true;
public static Boolean mpPause = false;
public static Boolean isPlaying = false;
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
}
// Play Cycle for seekBar
public void PlayCycle(){
seekBar.setProgress(mp.getCurrentPosition());
if (mp.isPlaying()){
runnable = new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
PlayCycle();
}
};
handler.postDelayed(runnable, 1000);
}
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
songLink = intent.getStringExtra("SongLink");
songName = intent.getStringExtra("SongName");
bandName = intent.getStringExtra("BandName");
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_singleband, null, false);
seekBar = (SeekBar) layout.findViewById(R.id.seekBarBand);
BandName = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.singleBandNameView);
BandName.setText("Bla Bla");
System.out.print("Band Name : "+ BandName.getText() );
handler = new Handler();
seekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
#Override

if (input){
mp.seekTo(progress);
}
}
#Override

}

});

Would love to have some suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Okey Firstly I suggest you to read more about Android Service classes. Secondly Do NOT place you visual components like a SeekBar or TextView in the Service because it doesn't make any sense. Service is just a background task and do not know about the UI. Since it's executed in the background you don't even need AsyncTask inside this so thirdly remove ALL AsyncTasks in your service and run their task like they don't need to be executed in the background.
So all what you have to do is create a Fragment/Activity for the UI, then bind your Fragment/Acitivity with your Service to communicate and update UI components.
The easiest way is make the Service a Singleton like it's done here:
public class MusicService extends Service {
private static MusicService instance = null;
public static MusicService getInstance() {
return instance;
}

NotificationManager nMN;

I have almost a week figuring out how should I have one instance of exoplayer in background.
I want to use this instance in a playerview and in notification as well. Problem I am facing now, the player plays well, after a time it pauses (to release resource I guess), but when i click play it plays again, when i click other oudio, I get two audio playing at same time.
Here are my codes.

I also had to create other service to remove notification when the

I don't take this as a best approach, but it gave me a quick solution while waiting for a better approach.
I will pot the app link here when it's available in playstore.
Im creating an app in android studio where I want 10 clips to be played at the same time side by side. Im having some problems with some lags already at three clips and I wounder if Im better off using threads? In that case how?
Any hint would be very much apreciated
Here is my code so far. I know it is not very efficient and I am better off using an array of a player object for example but Im just testing so far:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements TextureView.SurfaceTextureListener {
private MediaPlayer mp1, mp2, mp3;
private TextureView tv1, tv2, tv3;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
tv1 = findViewById(R.id.textureView1);
tv2 = findViewById(R.id.textureView2);
tv3 = findViewById(R.id.textureView3);
tv1.setSurfaceTextureListener(this);
tv2.setSurfaceTextureListener(this);
tv3.setSurfaceTextureListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onSurfaceTextureAvailable(SurfaceTexture surfaceTexture, int width, int height) {
Surface surface = new Surface(surfaceTexture);
mp1 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a7);
mp1.setSurface(surface);
// mp1.prepareAsync(); //
mp1.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp1) {
mp1.start();
}
});
Surface surface2 = new Surface(surfaceTexture);
mp2 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a9);
mp2.setSurface(surface2);
// mp1.prepareAsync(); //
mp2.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp2) {
mp2.start();
}
});
Surface surface3 = new Surface(surfaceTexture);
mp3 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a10);
mp3.setSurface(surface3);
// mp1.prepareAsync(); //
mp3.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {

}
});

You should play media in a different non-ui thread. like this:-
public class MediaService extends Service {

private static final String ACTION_START = TAG + ".ACTION_START";
private IBinder mBinder = new MyBinder();
private MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener mMediaPrepared = new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {

Log.d(TAG, "MediaPlayer.onPrepared");
onCommandPlay(mp);
}
};
#Override

return mBinder;
}
#Override

super.onCreate();
m1 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a1);
m2 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a2);
m3 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.a9);
}
#Override

super.onDestroy();
if (m1 != null) m1 .release();
if (m2 != null) m2 .release();
if (m3 != null) m3 .release();
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
final String action = intent.getAction();
Log.d(TAG, "onStartCommand: " + intent.getAction());
if (ACTION_START.equals(action)) {

return START_STICKY;
}
stopSelf();
return Service.START_STICKY_COMPATIBILITY;

}

} catch (IllegalStateException e) {

}
}
/**

private void startPlaying() {

try {
mp1.reset();
mp1.setOnPreparedListener(mMediaPrepared);
mp2.reset();
mp2.setOnPreparedListener(mMediaPrepared);

mp3.setOnPreparedListener(mMediaPrepared);

} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "startPlaying", e);
}
}
public class MyBinder extends Binder {
public MediaService getService() {
return MediaService.this;
}
}
}
then start the service from Activity like this:
Intent intent = new Intent(context, MediaService.class);
intent.setAction(ACTION_START);
startServie(intent);
You should also handle different media playing use-cases. You can refer this link for more.
Key Point: My application should be capable of running in background.
A rough structure of my application calls is:
HomeActivity(AppCompatActivity) -> MainActivity(AppCompatActivity) -> CameraRecorderService(IntentService) AND SensorService(Service)
Brief Explanation: On a button press in HomeActivity, MainActivity is triggered using Intent. As soon as MainActivity is called, in its onCreate() method, I call the two services i.e. CameraRecorderService and SensorService.
The CameraRecorderService records the video in an infinite loop unless it receives an event from SensorService.
The current application is working completely fine unless the app goes in background, i.e. I press the home button. It gives D/Camera﹕ app passed NULL surface , E/MediaRecorderJNI﹕ Application lost the surface.
The relevant code for MainActivity and CameraRecorderService are:
"MainActivity.java"
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements SurfaceHolder.Callback{
public static SurfaceView mSurfaceView; //declared static so that it can be accessed by Services
public static SurfaceHolder mSurfaceHolder;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mSurfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.surfaceView1);
mSurfaceHolder = mSurfaceView.getHolder();
mSurfaceHolder.addCallback(this);
mSurfaceHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);
Intent intent2 = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SensorService.class);
intent2.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startService(intent2);
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, CameraRecorderService.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startService(intent);
ImageButton btnStop = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.stop);
btnStop.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
stopService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, CameraRecorderService.class));
stopService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, SensorService.class));
System.exit(0);

I think the problem is that the SurfaceView is destroyed when Activity goes in onPause() state and as I have used a static SurfaceView it is nullified. And so the CameraRecorderService(IntentService) does not get the value from Activity because it runs on a separate thread.
But how do I solve this problem? As I said, the application works fine in foreground but the main purpose of my application is to run in background. Any suggestions are welcome!

I couldn't figure out how to show the interstitial ad when the user levels up and presses the play button (which will lead him to the next level). The interstitial ad show up when he presses the home button which will take him to the MainActivity screen.
Can someone help me to make the ads clickable? Also, any suggestions on how to add the interstitial ad after each completed level? When someone has finished a level and presses the play button, an interstitial ad should appear and when that is closed he should be able to play the next level.
I really appreciate your help!
A number of issues:
Don't call interstitial.show() from onAdLoaded. Call show() when the user presses the play button for your next level (but only if an ad is available).
Get rid of public static Activity instance; Never hold a static reference to an Activity. You will just leak context everywhere.
Instead of calling admob.loadAd() from onLevelUp() call it as soon as you create your Activity (it takes times to load an ad from the network). NB you don't need to call it from runOnUIThread()
Call admob.loadAd() again after each time you show the ad to the user.
The title it's not clear i think. In my project i want a service that runs in background and when the user says "hello phone" or some word/phrase my app starts to recognize the voice. Actually it "works" but not in right way... I have a service and this service detect the voice.

And i start service in my MainActivity just to try:
Intent i = new Intent(context, SpeechActivationService.class);
startService(i);
It detect the voice input...and TOO MUCH!!! Every time it detects something it's a "bipbip". Too many bips!! It's frustrating.. I only want that it starts when i say "hello phone" or "start" or a specific word!! I try to look at this https://github.com/gast-lib/gast-lib/blob/master/library/src/root/gast/speech/activation/WordActivator.java but really i don't know how use this library. I try see this question onCreate of android service not called but i not understand exactly what i have to do.. Anyway, i already import the gast library.. I only need to know how use it. Anyone can help me step by step? Thanks
Use setStreamSolo(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, true) instead of setStreamMute. Remember to add setStreamSolo(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, false) in case MSG_RECOGNIZER_CANCEL
