Android Widget does not show in list untill second run

Android Widget does not show in list untill second run - android

I am trying to run a widget and i have seen this problem has been discussed in many questions here and every one suggest that a activity should be started so then the app can be shown. I have even started a activity but when i finish the activity , still the widget is not shown.

receiver tag in the manifest twice

I am trying create app widget according the tutorial on this website http://www.developer.com/ws/android/programming/Creating-a-Home-Screen-App-Widget-on-Android-3833306.htm
but I am confused why there are two almost the same receiver tags in the manifest. Could somebody explain the reason please?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest

May be your correct codes :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.mamlambo.imageswidget"
android:versionCode="1"

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.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver
android:name="ImagesWidgetProvider">
<intent-filter>
<action
android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
<data android:scheme="images_widget" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.appwidget.provider"
android:resource="#xml/imageswidget_info" />
</receiver>
</application>
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="3" />
</manifest>
It will be worked. hopefully

Eclipse showing No launcher Activity found

This is my android Manifest.xml.

</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
Still Eclipse showing the result
ParallaxWallpaper] No Launcher activity found!
ParallaxWallpaper] The launch will only sync the application package on the device!
ParallaxWallpaper] Performing sync
ParallaxWallpaper] Automatic Target Mode: Unable to detect device compatibility. Please select a target device.
Please let me Know where am i doing the mistake, and what would be the solution...???

Move the intent-filter tag from service to activity

These lines should be in Activity tag
<application
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:icon="#drawable/icon">
<activity
android:label="#string/wallpaper_settings"
android:name=".ParallaxWallpaperSettings"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar" android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<service
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:name=".ParallaxWallpaper"
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER">
</service>
<meta-data android:name="android.service.wallpaper" android:resource="#xml/wallpaper" />
</application>

make activity as launcher you have made service as launcher. like that
<activity
android:label="#string/wallpaper_settings"
android:name=".ParallaxWallpaperSettings"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

There are several possible ways to run an activity.
Here's the method I use:
Intent i = new Intent (this, YourTargetActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
The this corresponds to your current activity.
Using such a call gives you the convenience to have your IDE autocomplete the desired activity name.

Dubble check the name of the class
Dubble check the name which should be mentioned in the manifest file
Perform a clean-build

Intent i = new Intent(this,SQLVIEW.class);

Thank you

Ok you must have inside your Manifest.xml
<application android:icon="#drawable/icon" android:label="#string/app_name">
<activity android:name=".GrupoReformaNews"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
this in intent filter for your application
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
this in intent filter for your Widget
<receiver android:name="GR_Widget">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider"
android:resource="#xml/imageswidget_info" />
</receiver>
...
...
...
</application>
if you still having problems, post your manifest.xml
