I am developing an app,in that i am maintaining Session using Shared Preferences.I that when user login,i am using their email id for further use.But when i tried to use that email in another activity, it is showing null.
Below in my code for mainActivity:
public class main extends AppCompatActivity {
public Button submit;
public static final String MyPREFERENCES = "MyPrefs" ;
public static final String email = "emailkey";
SharedPreferences sharedpreferences;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity1);
submit = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_login);
ImageView i1 = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgLogo);
String checkBoxText = "I agree to all the";
final CheckBox checkBox = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.checkBox);
sharedpreferences = getSharedPreferences(MyPREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
checkBox.setText(Html.fromHtml(checkBoxText));
checkBox.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
submit.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
EditText e1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.input_email);
EditText p1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.input_password);
String e = e1.getText().toString();
final String password = p1.getText().toString();
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedpreferences.edit();
editor.putString(email, e);
editor.commit();
Here is my code for another activity:
String e,email;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.internshipsdetails);
SharedPreferences sharedpreferences = getSharedPreferences(main.MyPREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
sharedpreferences.getString(email,e);
String url = "url?COMP_REQ_ID=" + title + "&StuEmail=" + e;
AQuery mAQuery = new AQuery(InternShipsDetails.this);
mAQuery.ajax(url, String.class, new AjaxCallback<String>() {
#Override
public void callback(String url, String data, AjaxStatus status) {
super.callback(url, data, status);
if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
Log.d("###$Request URL", url + "");
Log.d("###$Response ", data + "");
Log.d("###$Status Message : ", status.getMessage() + "");
Log.d("###$Status Code : ", status.getCode() + "");
}
You can manage session by changing shared preference values after doing logout action and check preference again at the time of login also. You can save current time also in a string at login and logout action. Make sure to use private shared preferences.
You are passing the wrong key to shared Pref because of that you are getting null.
Following is the updated code of yours which will give you the stored email address:
SharedPreferences sharedpreferences = getSharedPreferences(main.MyPREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
e = sharedpreferences.getString(main.email,"");
String url = "url?COMP_REQ_ID=" + title + "&StuEmail=" + e;
Happy coding !!!
getString (String key, String defValue) method returns a String. So, you need to catch the output in a string variable.
Also, you are passing a nullkey. You need to pass the same key using which you saved the value.
So, in your case it would be
e = sharedpreferences.getString("emailkey","nodata");

In the response After getting success message I want save the edited details in in respective edit text fields please help.After success message I am moving to home screen through intent and again I get back to this screen it is showing the previous details only.
all happens here :
...
if (json_status.equalsIgnoreCase("Success")){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "changed parent details successfully", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(),ActivityHome.class));
}
...
once you have a success response save the edited values on the preferences, for example etFirstName, save it is new value to the corresponding preference :
...
if (json_status.equalsIgnoreCase("Success")){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "changed parent details successfully", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
editor.putString(AppConstants.PARENT_FNAME, parentFirstName);
editor.apply(); //don't forget this
startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(),ActivityHome.class));
}
...
any way you're creating the editor but not using it.
you want to save data after download from network or after an edit in edit text fields was made??
if from network add some save method execution statement in code where you download data was successful
if (json_status.equalsIgnoreCase("Success")){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "changed parent details successfully", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// here you have successful received data so u can map them to edit text or save in shared prefs
// add method to save data here
saveData(response);
startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(),ActivityHome.class));
}
private void saveData(JSONObject response) {
// use JSon response object save here to shared preferences
// see how to load data from json object
// https://processing.org/reference/JSONObject_getString_.html
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences(AppConstants.OOSH_PREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
sharedPreferences.putString(....).apply;
// or set edit text controls with JSon data
}
to save edit text changes you have two choices :
add to layout save button (you have one) button and set on click listener with method to save data:
btnSave = (CustomButton) findViewById(R.id.btn_save_parent);
btnSave.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
saveData(v);
}
});
private void saveData(View view) {
// get root view
View rootView = view.getRootView();
// find edit text widget on root view
EditText etFirstName = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edit_first_name);
// get string from edit text widget
String firstName = etFirstName.getString.toString();
// get shared preferences
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences(AppConstants.OOSH_PREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
// save to shared prefs firstName wher NAME_KEY is string to identified your saved data for later use - to load
sharedPreferences.putString(NAME_KEY,firstName).apply;
}
private void loadDataFromSharedPredferences(View view) {
// get shared preferences
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences(AppConstants.OOSH_PREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
// load data from shared prefs firstName wher NAME_KEY is string to identified data to load
String firstName = sharedPreferences.getString(NAME_KEY,firstName);
// get root view
View rootView = view.getRootView();
// find edit text widget on root view
EditText etFirstName = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edit_first_name);
// set string to edit text widget
etFirstName.setText(firstName);
}
add on text change listener for edittext widgets
ps. you need to clarify - write a exactly steps of what you want to do achieve
load data from network ? then save ?
or save request date ?
or save result data ?
Currently my application is searching for an existing device in "Device" table to enable login access. However, I want to register a new device every time they're required to log in and have them bypass the login page every time the application runs. Currently, the application says there's invalid credentials upon opening since the username and password aren't being saved properly. How do I solve this?
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);
// declaring variables
etUsername = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.etUsername);
etPassword= (EditText)findViewById(R.id.etPassword);
btnLogin = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnLogin);
etIpAddress = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etIpAddress);
String username = etUsername.getText().toString();
String password = etPassword.getText().toString();
String ipAddress = etIpAddress.getText().toString();
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(LoginActivity.this);
if (sharedPreferences.contains("ip")) {
performLogin(username, password, sharedPreferences.getString("ip", ipAddress));
}
// setting up things for login button
btnLogin.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String ipAddress = etIpAddress.getText().toString();
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(LoginActivity.this);
sharedPreferences.edit()
.putString("ip", ipAddress)
.apply();
String username = etUsername.getText().toString().trim();
String password = etPassword.getText().toString().trim();
performLogin(username, password, ipAddress);
}
});
}
private void performLogin(String username, String password, String ipAddress) {
try {
Device.login(username, password, ipAddress, this);
} catch (JSONException e) {
onLoginFailure(e);
}
}
For saving login credentials we always follow these code:-
public static final String MyPREFERENCES = "MyPrefs" ;
public static final String Name = "nameKey";
public static final String Phone = "phoneKey";
public static final String Email = "ip";
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedpreferences.edit();
editor.putString(Name, n);
editor.putString(Phone, ph);
editor.putString(ip, e);
editor.commit();
I think you must use that thing in your code rather then apply() meth
I've been getting null returns from getting strings from my saved preferences. I'm not sure how savedpreferences worked but my understanding was that when call a sharedpreferences, it creates the keypair file on the phone so you can come back to it later.
My program is essentially a string creation application. When you press a button, it creates a string to send as an sms. My settings activity page has four edittexts that save whatever is inside them with a buttonclick and returns to the main activity. The final button creates a String by getting the value from the keyvalue pair and constructs the message. However, I've always gotten null for each of the values.
Heres the code for the settings page and then the main page. Please ask if I could add more, I didn't add ALL of the code, just the sharedpreferences portions.

Create java class named SessionManger and put all your methods for setting and getting SharedPreferences values. When you want to save value use the object of this class and set and get the values.
Sample code given below.
public class SessionManager {
SharedPreferences pref;
SharedPreferences.Editor editor;
Context _context;
int PRIVATE_MODE = 0;
public SessionManager(Context context) {
this._context = context;
pref = _context.getSharedPreferences("name_that_you_use", PRIVATE_MODE);
editor = pref.edit();
editor.apply();
}
public void setIntroMessage(String data) {
editor.putString("intro", data);
editor.commit();
}
public String getIntroMessage() {
return pref.getString("intro", null);
}
}
I have a login activity on app start and I need to check if use has used this app before and then I need to place the username and his password entered recently.
For this I have used shared preferences and used as shown below:
b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
username= usernameET.getText().toString();
password= passwordET.getText().toString();
SharedPreferences data = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
data.edit().putString("username", username).commit();
data.edit().putString("password", password).commit();
}
});
Now I'm getting these values on app restart as shown below:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.login);
SharedPreferences data = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
String storedUsername = data.getString("username", "");
String storedPassword = data.getString("password", "");
if (storedUsername != null && storedPassword != null) {
usernameET.setText(storedUsername);
passwordET.setText(storedPassword);
} else {
}
}
Coder, what is your issue? This is not working?
Please, tell us what is happening.
The implementation with SharedPreference would be my suggestion for you, is it not working?
I made a very simple implemention here and it works as usual...
On the onCreate:
SharedPreferences data = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
String storedUsername = data.getString("username", "");
String storedPassword = data.getString("password", "");
Toast.makeText(this, "saved Strings, user = " + storedUsername + " pass = " + storedPassword, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
On the click of an ImageButton
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
SharedPreferences data = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
data.edit().putString("username", "carlos").commit();
data.edit().putString("password", "password").commit();
}
Sounds like you are not setting the content on the SharedPreferences. Could you please make sure the action is executed?
Didn't really see a question asked but...
data.getString is going to return the default value if it is not set, which you're setting as a blank string(""). Either change your if:
if (!storedUsername.equals("") && !storedPassword.equals(""))
or change your default value to null
String storedUsername = data.getString("username", null);
String storedPassword = data.getString("password", null);
I am using the code for remember my username and password. i have tried a lot of hours for the code for remember my username name and password but i cant success in it.
Here is my code which i have download from internet but it didn't work for me.
I have declared this variable in the extends activity.
public static final String PREFS_NAME = "MyPrefsFile";
public static final String PREFS_USER = "prefsUsername";
public static final String PREFS_PASS = "prefsPassword";
after that I have also declare different variable like below.
public String PREFS_USERS;
public String PREFS_PASS;
String username;
String upass;
and in the click listener i have given the following code.
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME,MODE_PRIVATE);
username = etUsername.getText().toString();
upass = etPassword.getText().toString();
getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE)
.edit()
.putString(PREFS_USERS, username)
.putString(PREFS_PASS, upass)
.commit();
and at the time at retry i have return the following code in the oncreate activity to retry my user name and password.
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE);
username = pref.getString(PREFS_USERS, "");
upass = pref.getString(PREFS_PASS, "");
But when I run the application i cant get the username and password.First time when i load the application i checked the remember me check box after log in and log out back from the application and close the application and when come back to it.it was not saved for me.
The problem is in declaring the variables
you have declared
public static final String PREFS_NAME = "MyPrefsFile";
public static final String PREFS_USER = "prefsUsername";
public static final String PREFS_PASS = "prefsPassword";
public String PREFS_USERS;
public String PREFS_PASS; //assigned null here
.putString(PREFS_PASS, upass) //here value of PREFS_PASS is null
Use the following code
better do like the folowing
public String PREFS_USERNAME= "prefsUsername";
public String PREFS_PASSWORD="prefsPassword";
Store the data as using following code
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME,MODE_PRIVATE);
passwordInString = password.getText().toString();
userNameInString = username.getText().toString();
getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE)
.edit()
.putString(PREFS_USERNAME, userNameInString)
.putString(PREFS_PASSWORD, passwordInString)
.commit();
retrieve the data like the following
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE);
String usernameName = pref.getString(PREFS_USERNAME, "");
String upassWord = pref.getString(PREFS_PASSWORD, "");
Thanks

It should look something like this (obviously you can use global vars so you dont have to specify them in several places):
String PREFS = "MyPrefs";
SharedPreferences mPrefs;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mPrefs = getSharedPreferences(PREFS, 0);
//check if the remember option has been check before
boolean rememberMe = mPrefs.getBoolean("rememberMe", false);
if(rememberMe == true){
//get previously stored login details
String login = mPrefs.getString("login", null);
String upass = mPrefs.getString("password", null);
if(login != null && pass != null){
//fill input boxes with stored login and pass
EditText loginEbx = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.login_box);
EditText passEbx = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.pass_box);
loginEbx.setText(login);
passEbx.setText(upass);
//set the check box to 'checked'
CheckBox rememberMeCbx = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.remeber_cbx);
rememberMeCbx.setChecked(true);
}
}
}
private void saveLoginDetails(){
//fill input boxes with stored login and pass
EditText loginEbx = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.login_box);
EditText passEbx = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.pass_box);
String login = loginEbx.getText().toString();
String upass = passEbx.getText().toString();
Editor e = mPrefs.edit();
e.putBoolean("rememberMe", true);
e.putString("login", login);
e.putString("password", upass);
e.commit();
}
private void removeLoginDetails(){
Editor e = mPrefs.edit();
e.putBoolean("rememberMe", false);
e.remove("login");
e.remove("password");
e.commit();
}
You would probably call the saveLoginDetails() & removeLoginDetails() methods in the OnClick listener:
CheckBox rememberMeCbx = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.remeber_cbx);
boolean isChecked = rememberMeCbx.isChecked();
if(isChecked){
saveLoginDetails();
}else{
removeLoginDetails();
}
I hope you can find it useful
U can do this.. create a boolean variable with default value "false" and set a boolean value to true when user choses for rememberMe and put an if condition before validating user password and other stuff.. and use the boolean value in this condition..
SharedPreferences myPrefs;
onCreate()
{
myPrefs=this.getSharedPreferences("PREF_NAME",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
if(myPrefs.getBoolean("firstTime", false))
{
startActivity(new Intent(this,SeeRecordsActivity.class));
finish();
}
}
on signIn button:
boolean c=chkbox.isChecked();
if(c==true)
{
SharedPreferences.Editor editor=myPrefs.edit();
editor.putBoolean("firstTime", true);
editor.commit();
}
