My app won't show up in my app drawrer

My app won't show up in my app drawrer - android

I made an app that (just recently) stopped showing up in my app drawrer. It shows up as an installed app in Titanium Backup, but when I select it, it does not give me a "run app" option. The only way I am able to run it is by running it in Android Studio. I am pretty sure i have messed something up in my manifest that is making it act weird. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with my manifest? I have been comparing it to many different manifests and I tried removing and changing several lines in it but no luck.
I am by far no expert in development therefore if the problem I am having is due to a very small error that I may not understand, be easy on me.
Here is my manifest. This is a text messaging app.

You need to use two different intent-filter, one for the android.intent.action.MAIN action and one for the android.intent.action.SEND and android.intent.action.SENDTO actions.
Change your AndroidManifest.xml from this:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="sms" />
<data android:scheme="smsto" />
<data android:scheme="mms" />
<data android:scheme="mmsto" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
to this:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>

I want to show my app in default sms box in settings
Please help me
Becuase i can't delete an message from sent message only if my app selected a default sms app???

You need to remove the <data> element from the SMS Receiver's <intent-filter>.
<receiver
android:name="com.cyber_dove.MessaGen.sms.SMS_DELIVER_ACTION"
android:permission="android.permission.BROADCAST_SMS" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_DELIVER" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
And you're missing the <intent-filter> tags in the composing Activity.
<activity android:name="com.cyber_dove.MessaGen.sms.ACTION_SENDTO" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />

Android Studio: App icon doesn't appear in the home screen or app list

I have a serious problem with my self developed app.
Long Story:
I have created an app and developed it on my desktop pc. Because I need to show it to my customer, I decided to install android studio on my Notebook and try the app there. I imported the project on my Notebook and started Android Studio, I ran the project, the app started and worked like always on my smartphone but......when I went back to the homescreen the Icon was missing (while on my desktop pc version was shown) and it wasn't even in the app list, but if I go on "Settings" --> "Manage applications", it's shown there, I can unistall or stop it, but because I don't have an icon I can't start it again if I don't rerun the app with Android Studio. I went back to my desktop pc and tried to rerun the app from there, but nothing changed the icon is still missing.
Short Story: After reinstalling my app on my phone with android studio from my notebook, the app icon is missing from the home screen and application list, but I can see it in "Settings" --> "Manage applications". If I go back to my original pc where I developed the app and try to rerun it, the result is the same...icon missing.
I read all the post that are similar to my problem on Stackoverflow, but nothing helped me to resolve it. I hope that someone can help me about it.
I posted the AndroidManifest.xml if needed but I can't post all the code because of privacy/copyright, sorry. I tried to write in the most correct english I could, I apologize in advance if my writing is horrible.

It is happening because you passed everything into one intent filter. Try to separate them per use case or at least separate Launcher and Main filter.
Like this:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />
<data android:scheme="sms" />
<data android:scheme="smsto" />
<data android:scheme="mms" />
<data android:scheme="mmsto" />
</intent-filter>

Adding different intent filter can solve your problem
<activity
android:name=".activities.SplashActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
<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"></action>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"></category>
<data android:host="example.com"></data>
<data android:scheme="http"></data>
<data android:pathPattern="/.*"></data>
</intent-filter>
</activity>

I had the same problem but the solutions above did not work for me. I had to remove the label attribute to make it appear on the screen again.
Before the MainActivity looked like this:
<activity
android:name=".HomeTabs.NavigationHome"
android:label="#string/title_activity_navigation_home">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
and afterwards like this:
<activity
android:name=".HomeTabs.NavigationHome"
>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

If you're already sure that you have correctly defined your app logo,
problem would be using android:scheme inside of launcher activity. See below post:

My question is about step 4. What do i need to implement that functionality (maybe a intent filter)?

Yes. You need to add intent filters with action ACTION_DIAL/ACTION_CALL to one of your Activities.
Intent-filter for Native Phone app Dialer Activity:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.DIAL" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/phone" />

</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<!-- <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> -->
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.DIAL" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="tel" />
</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:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.dir/calls" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.CALL_BUTTON" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
</intent-filter>
<!--
This was never intended to be public, but is here for backward
compatibility. Use Intent.ACTION_DIAL instead.
-->
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.android.phone.action.TOUCH_DIALER" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.TAB" />
</intent-filter>

It works now with this code:
<activity android:name=".ui.InCallActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.CALL" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.CALL_PRIVILEGED" />
<data android:scheme="tel" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
In the android guidelines they say not to use call_privileged, but their is not another good option at the moment.

how to set an app as an sms app android

I have developed an android app that sends sms. My problem is that when I click the text message icon for a contact, the pop up that asks you to specify which application you will like to use, does not have my app as part of the options. Can anybody help with this?
I have added an image to make the question much clearer.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/itFvN.png
This is the code for the manifest file:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.smsmessaging"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="15" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS">
</uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS">
</uses-permission>
<application
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity android:name=".SMS"
android:label="#string/app_name">
<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.SEND"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver android:name=".Receiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name=
"android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>

I finally figured out how to do it. All I had to do was add the intent-filter bellow to the activity:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:scheme="sms" />
<data android:scheme="smsto" />
</intent-filter>

You need to have an <intent-filter> for the ACTION_SEND action. This will put it in the list
http://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-filters.html
This example is from the Google page:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.EDIT" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PICK" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.dir/vnd.google.note" />
</intent-filter>
Pay attention to the data element

Why is the "share-to" menu item gone in Android 4.0.3 PHONE HTC OneX

UPDATE
So far this only happens on the HTC OneX using Android 4.0.3
I have two share-to menu items in the android share menu.
When the user shares an image from android gallery, my app displays two
icons so user can have easy access to two different part of my app.
See picture.
This works fine in API v8, but in API v15 on a real device one of them is missing. API v15 emulator is ok!
In my AndroidManifest.xml this two Activity's set an icon in the share menu.
- ActivityMainLauncher
- ActivityQuickLauncher
The images are places in the hdpi, mdpi, ldpi folders.
The size is 72,48,36 pixels and they are PNG images.
Photoshop shows same resolution 72,009 for all three images.
UPDATE
added drawable-xhdpi folder for 96pix, but I have still only one item the: "SPRiiD"
This behavior is so strange, I don't know where to start debug.
I think there is something new in the API v15 that I have overseen?
Image of emulator API v15 correctly showing the two choices.
This is my AndroidManifest.xml file.

I just copied the relevant part of your manifest and created a test project:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.test"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="15" />
<application
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".ActivityMainLauncher"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/string_app_name"
android:launchMode="singleTop" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="image/*" />

</activity>
<activity

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/string_app_name_quick_launcher"
android:launchMode="singleTop" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="image/*" />
<data android:mimeType="video/*" />
<data android:mimeType="audio/*" />
<data android:mimeType="text/*" />
<data android:mimeType="application/*" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND_MULTIPLE" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:mimeType="image/*" />

</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
Simple activity implementations:
public class ActivityQuickLauncher extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Toast.makeText(this, getClass().getName(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
public class ActivityMainLauncher extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Toast.makeText(this, getClass().getName(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
And it works:
Android 4.1.1 (Galaxy Nexus) and Android 4.0.3 (Archos G9 A70).
