I have defined splash screen like many other without external activity, but it doesn't works for me, I don't understand why.
Is there any limitations for images? Also tried for many other images
This is my splash.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:opacity="opaque">
<item>
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/splash_logo" />
</item>
</layer-list>
Here preview for splash.xml file in android studio looks like perfectly.
Than I have created style like that
<style name="AppTheme.Launcher">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/splash</item>
</style>
and assigned it to activity theme inside manifest
<activity
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.Launcher"
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>
this is my activity's
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
setTheme(R.style.AppTheme)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
}
when activity is loaded blank white screen is shown instead of image, maybe for a one second. I searched this approach and seems that it is the same what others were done. Don't understand what's wrong
EDIT:
I have tested it for another device OS 5.0 and it works, but for 6.0 doesn't
EDIT
Remove this from your activity
setTheme(R.style.AppTheme)
Try this
Style.xml
<style name="SplashTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/splash_background</item>
</style>
splash_background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#color/colorPrimary" />
<item>
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#mipmap/ic_launcher" />
</item>
</layer-list>
SplashActivity
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
startActivity(new Intent(SplashActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
// close splash activity
finish();
}
}
Manifest
<activity android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
This should be a comment. But i cannot put a comment. I have faced the same problem. Please check your size of image. Try to compress the image and try again it may help you. Please do let me know.

I coded splash screen in my project but ı want to splash screen image come 1 second after splash screen starts. Can you create a sample code block about this or provide a source?
class SplashActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash)
if (UiHelper.hasInternetConnection(this)) {
loadSplashScreen()
} else {
UiHelper.customErrorDialog(this, "Connection failed")
}
}
private fun loadSplashScreen() {
Handler().postDelayed({
startActivity(Intent(this, MainActivity::class.java))
finish()
}, 3000)
}
I writed warning messages on componion object. Inside the companion object ui helper class.
Following the best practice to make a spash screen:
0. Inside res/drawable folder create a file "launch_screen.xml"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#color/colorPrimaryDark" />
<item>
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/my_splash_image" /> <---- replace with your spash image
</item>
</layer-list>
1. Insert in your Manifest.xml this line android:theme="#style/AppTheme" like follow and inside first activity: android:theme="#style/AppTheme.Launcher"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.app.myapp">
<application
android:name=".MyApp"
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"
android:screenOrientation="sensorPortrait"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.Launcher">
<meta-data
android:name="preloaded_fonts"
android:resource="#array/preloaded_fonts" />
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
2. Open styles.xml from res/values folder and paste the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight.NoActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">#color/colorAccent</item>
<style name="AppTheme.Launcher">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/launch_screen</item>
</style>
</resources>
And all is done :-)
When I launch my application, the screen goes white before displaying my Splash Screen
I would like to remove if possible or put the background the same color as my Splash Screen
But I do not know how, Can someone help me
Thank you
You need to remove your splash screen code as the white screen is itself a splash, provided by android. You just need to change it according to your need.
You first need to create a drawable with name splash_screen.xml and put this code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#color/black"/>
<item
android:drawable="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:gravity="center"/>
</layer-list>
after that you need to create a activity which launches your MainActivity
Something like this
class OnBoardingActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
DashboardActivity.launch(this)
finish()
}
}
then you need to overwrite the default splash screen with your styles.xml
<style name="SplashTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/splash_screen</item>
</style>
after that last step is to add this theme in your manifest.
the activity which launches the app will have this style
<activity
android:name=".ui.onboarding.OnBoardingActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
you could use separate activity for your splash screen
xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#dddddd"
tools:context=".SplashScreen">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_icon" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:text="Splash Screen"
android:textSize="25sp" />
Class
public class SplashScreen extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash_screen);
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable(){
#Override
public void run() {
Intent mainIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),MainActivity.class);
SplashScreen.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
SplashScreen.this.finish();
}
}, 2000);
}
}
Manifest
( Launch Activity as SplashActivity )
<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/Theme.SplashtoMain">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"/>
<activity android:name=".SplashScreen">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
I am working on an android app and would like to show a splash screen in landscape mode when the system loads the app.
I made a small test app to reproduce the problem and saw that it actually works in portrait mode, but when I add this line android:screenOrientation="sensorLandscape" to my manifest it suddenly doesn't work anymore. It doesn't show any splash screen as if the property windowPreviewDisabled was set to true.
Has anyone an idea what I am doing wrong?
My manifest:
<activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:theme="#style/AppTheme.Launcher" android:screenOrientation="sensorLandscape" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.
</intent-filter>
</activity>
style xml:
<style name="AppTheme.Launcher" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#layout/launch_screen</item>
</style>
launch screen xml (which is inside layout-land folder):
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:opacity="opaque">
<item android:drawable="#android:color/black"/>
<item>
<bitmap
android:src="#drawable/logo2"
android:gravity="center"/>
</item>
</layer-list>
Maybe you could add setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR_LANDSCAPE);
in your activity after the setContentView method.
In my SlashActivity I use only AndroidManifest and style as advised here https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/splash-screens-the-right-way/.
And in SplashActivity I want use splash.jpg, but this picture changing to screen size.
How I can use centerCrop in my style file or are there other solutions?
My drawble:
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#color/colorMaterialWhite"/>
<item>
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/splash" />
</item>
</layer-list>
AndroidManifest:
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
SplashActivity:
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, NavigationActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}
Style:
<style name="SplashTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/background_splash</item>
</style>
You might want to add padding to your splash image.
Inside the item tag add android:top, android:bottom, android:right, android:left
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#color/colorMaterialWhite"/>
<item
android:top="200dp"
android:bottom="200dp"
android:left="200dp"
android:right="200dp">
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/splash" />
</item>
</layer-list>
I have also followed this blog while creating my Splash screen. Generally, the splash screen has a background color and the logo of your app and you can set it as a background. So, you should not require to centerCrop the image in Splash screen. In case that need is there, I would strongly recommend to edit the image using any editor instead of programmatically doing it.
I use this splash screen for my app. It works fine, but I want to use animation. How can I use animation without layouts?
This my java file:
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, NavigationActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}
My xml for theme:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#color/colorMaterialWhite"/>
<item>
<bitmap
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#mipmap/ico" />
</item>
</layer-list>
Style:
<style name="SplashTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">#drawable/background_splash</item>
</style>
AndroidManifest:
<activity android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
I want rotate ico while app loading. Thank you.
Is it even possible?
