Hi guys,
first of all - Merry Christmas!!!
I have a strange problem here and spent too many hours figuring out what the problem might be. I definitely need your help here now... I'm pretty sure this is very easy to fix... if you know how...
I develop a little free app for German O2 customers so that they can send their 50 free Web-SMS directly from their Android phone and not only via web interface like O2 wants them to. These SMS are sent in the background using a service. This service generates notifications (e.g. Message sent successfully, Login successful/failed,...)
When I click on that notification the app should open and then display the notification message. This works pretty fine as long as the app is visible (foreground/active). When putting the app into the background it's getting launched as well, but it doesn't display the message... then, when I hold down the HOME-Key and select the app... the message gets displayed.
See the following video... to show you what I mean...

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the Fflags for my intent, so here's my code:
Setting the notification:
Reacting on the incoming intent:
Would be great if someone was able to help me...

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the Fflags for my intent, so here's my code:
Setting the notification:
Code:
// The PendingIntent to launch our activity if the user selects this
// notification
final Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(ManagerFactory
.getMasterActivity(), MailerActivity.class);
notificationIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
Log.d(TAG, "Set new message to Notification: " + p_message);
notificationIntent
.putExtra(Constants.NOTIFICATION_EXTRA_KEY, p_message);
Log.d(TAG, "Setting requestCodeToFixNotificationBug: "
+ s_requestCodeToFixNotificationBug);
final PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(
ManagerFactory.s_service, s_requestCodeToFixNotificationBug++,
notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(ManagerFactory.s_service, p_tickerText,
p_message, contentIntent);Reacting on the incoming intent:
Code:
/*
* (non-Javadoc)
*
* @see android.app.Activity#onNewIntent(android.content.Intent)
*/
@Override
protected final void onNewIntent(final Intent p_intent) {
// when called via notification, get the extras
Log.d(TAG, "Called onNewIntent...");
final Bundle extras = p_intent.getExtras();
Log.d(TAG, "Extra: " + extras);
if (extras != null
&& extras.getString(Constants.NOTIFICATION_EXTRA_KEY) != null
&& !extras.getString(Constants.NOTIFICATION_EXTRA_KEY).trim()
.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
Log.d(TAG, "Extra:"
+ extras.getString(Constants.NOTIFICATION_EXTRA_KEY));
this.showLongMessage(extras
.getString(Constants.NOTIFICATION_EXTRA_KEY));
}
}Would be great if someone was able to help me...
