i just spent some hours on making the Actionbar visible without success:
With my RegisterActivity i collect some login data and then i start MainActivity. In RegisterActivity i have a Actionbar but not in MainActivity:
AndroidManifest:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" android:targetSdkVersion="17"/>
<application android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
>
<activity android:name="RegisterActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name="MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo" >
</activity>
</application>
RegisterActivity:
...
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class);
i.putExtra("username", username);
i.putExtra("password", password);
startActivity(i);
...
MainActivity:
...
webview = new WebView(this);
setContentView(webview);
webview.loadUrl(address);
...
Normally there should be an Actionbar but there isn't!
just hope that someone has a solution for my problem?!
Thanks
I solved my problem:
My RegisterActivity extends the Class Activity! My MainActivity extends the class DroidGap from Phonegap2.5.0 (aka Apache Cordova).
I changed MainActivity so that it extends Activity and the result is that the ActionBar is visible :D
When you need DroidGap you will have to insert
super.setBooleanProperty("showTitle", true);
before you call:
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
At the end it looks like this:
public class MainActivity extends DroidGap {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.setBooleanProperty("showTitle", true);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//More Code ....
The correct way of setting the boolean property ShowTitle is using the preferences in the config.xml.
add
<preference name="ShowTitle" value="true"/>
to config.xml to enable the ActionBar on Android.
Are you sure that there is no line:
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
in onCreate() method?
Try:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
...
setContentView(...);
...
or
...
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY);
...

It's my project situation now.
MainActivity is LAUNCHER
SplashActivity called MainActivity onCreate()
When I think about it, it looks like there is no problem.
but after app starting,
The MainActivity screen is briefly visible before SplashActivity call.
Surprisingly, I did not see it on other devices, only galaxy s8.
Of course, I know it is not a general structure. But I can not understand it because I have been working normally.
white color is cold start style and splashActivity.
red color is mainActivity
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// some getIntent code
startActivityForResult(new Intent(this, SplashActivity.class), RESULTCODE_);
setInitLayout();
}
manifest
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
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>
<activity android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme" >
</activity>
minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 28
If you use style with android:windowBackground for splash activity, don't call setContentView(). Thats all!
It is not a good idea to use a splash screen that way . This should be strictly avoided.
With this approach you may also lead the problem of blank white page appears during splash launching and this what exactly happened to you !
i advice you to read this article and try to make your splash screen in the right way to avoid such behavior !
You have placed MainActivity class to be the launcher activity in your manifest. I am assuming that your splashscreen activity is called SplashActivity. If you want it to be shown before as the SplashScreen and then MainActivity to come later on, change your manifest code to be:
<activity android:name=".SplashActivity"
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>
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme" >
</activity>
<activity android:name=".IntroActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/SplashTheme" >
</activity>
Then create your SplashActivity as suggested by Ismail in the link that he has provided
simply add handler for limited seconds of time and finish current activity
Handler handler = new Handler();
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
//actvity transaction
}
},3000);
Use this thread code for splash activity it will better work -
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static int SPLASH_TIME_OUT = 3000;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
Thread thread = new Thread() {
public void run(){
try{
sleep(3000);
}catch (InterruptedException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally {
Intent mainAct=new Intent(SplashActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(mainAct);
finish();
}
}
};
thread.start();
}
#Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
}
}
and your manifest class will be look like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
package="com.example.diskapp">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/logo"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
tools:ignore="AllowBackup,GoogleAppIndexingWarning">
<activity android:name=".Activities.SplashActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".Activities.MainActivity" />
</application>
</manifest>
Use this thread code for splash activity. It will better work :
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static int SPLASH_TIME_OUT = 3000;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
Thread thread = new Thread() {
public void run(){
try{
sleep(3000);
}catch (InterruptedException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally {
Intent mainAct=new Intent(SplashActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(mainAct);
finish();
}
}
};
thread.start();
}
#Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
}
}
I have starting building an app in Android studio. I have established the MainPage as the launcher activity in the manifest.xml.
<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.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
<activity android:name=".MainPage">
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".courseSelect" />
<activity android:name=".profile1" />
<activity android:name=".stats1" />
<activity android:name=".ReviewRounds" />
<activity android:name=".ReferFriends" />
<activity android:name=".RangeMode" />
</application>
I have double checked that the run configuration is set to 'Default' and yet the app is running a different activity, entitled courseSelect. It is also not running some code correctly on the NumberPicker. Even though I've set the picker to have a min, max, and default, the picker only shows 0 and will not scroll. The two issues seem to be related somehow, in terms of what activity is being run.
this is the courseSelectCode:
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.NumberPicker;
import co.ceryle.segmentedbutton.SegmentedButtonGroup;
public class courseSelect extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_course_select);
//Hole Picker
NumberPicker holePicker = (NumberPicker)findViewById(R.id.holePicker);
holePicker.setMaxValue(18);
holePicker.setMinValue(1);
holePicker.setWrapSelectorWheel(false);
holePicker.setValue(1);
SegmentedButtonGroup sbg = (SegmentedButtonGroup) findViewById(R.id.segmentedButtonGroup);
sbg.setOnClickedButtonPosition(new SegmentedButtonGroup.OnClickedButtonPosition() {
#Override
public void onClickedButtonPosition(int position) {
// if(position == 0)
}
});
}
}
I tried to set the run configuration specifically to the MainPage activity and it still opens in the courseSelect Page.
EDIT: on request, here is my MainPage.java code:
public class MainPage extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_course_select);
Window g = getWindow();
g.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_NAVIGATION, WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_STATUS_BAR);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
}
...
}
edit the Mainfest.xml, in order to enforce portrait layout there already:
<activity android:name=".MainPage"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
...which makes this code merely useless (styles.xml can also be used for window styles):
Window g = getWindow();
g.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_NAVIGATION, WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_STATUS_BAR);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
also update setContentView( R.layout.activity_course_select ); to the proper resource.
because it starts the MainPage Activity, but then inflates the wrong XML file.
one "suggested edit" before was to swap the order of setContentView() and the paragraph below ...which I've rejected, because setting it in Manifest.xml appeared more organized (less code).
First of all There is a mistake in your manifest file
you wrote screenOrientation attribute outside the opening tag
<activity android:name=".MainPage">
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
it should be
<activity
android:name=".MainPage"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
and you used wrong xml to setContenView
Try this and error was in 9th line because your code line is outside of the tag:
<activity android:name=".MainPage">
android:screenOrientation="portrait" // error
Do this :
<activity android:name=".MainPage"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"> // After doing this no error
and do also this thing :
public class MainPage extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_course_select); // error
do this :
public class MainPage extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.MAIN_PAGE_ACTIVITY_NAME); // no error
Your launcher activity is MainPage but you are calling the layout of courseselect activity inside MainPage activity's onCreate method on this line
setContentView(R.layout.activity_course_select);
Change it to your MainPage layout
setContentView(R.layout.yourMainPageLayout);
ManinActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
Manifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application

</activity>
</application>
I tried
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
feature but it just won't work ! i don't able to find out why.
but when i use
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">
it just worked !!! but i don't want to use Theme can i do it pragmatically ?
There are two ways to do that
Set below lines to your styles.xml
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
Or
Set below lines in your ActionBarActivity file.
getSupportActionBar().hide();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
supportRequestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
I'm trying to create splash screen without action bar.
Firstly before created splash screen, action bar in main activity and when I create splash screen, action bar comes to splash screen and main activity is full screen. I searched method like getwindow(), getActionBar(), but when I use these method program says to me unfortunately stopped. So what I'm missing?
How can I avoid actionBar in splash screen?
My code:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash_item);
Thread th=new Thread(){
public void run(){
try {
sleep(4000);
Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,SplashScreen.class);
startActivity(intent);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
finally{
finish();
}
}
};
th.start();
}
MANİFEST:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".SplashScreen"
android:label="#string/app_name"
>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SPLASHSCREEN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
First, import the support library in the top of your app:
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
and change your code as follows:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash_item);
getSupportActionBar().hide();
}
Using AppCompat for being supported for all versions:
<activity
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
Put that before your setContentView(...), should get the job done.
For Android 3.0 or higher use ActionBarAPI#hide
For lower versions you will need to use Android Support Library.
Use ActionBar as
ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.hide();
Ref docs
Also if your requirement in static, then you can choose a theme for your activity that dos not have actionbar such as
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar"
You can do this as:
<activity android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar"
android:name=".name_here"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
use a style without actionbar, also in your splash screen activity java extend Activity and make the splash screen your MAIN activity and in this activity you call an Intent to open your MainActivity after some seconds
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
</activity>
<activity android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar"
android:name=".SplashScreen"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
Example:
In your SplashScreen activity write this code. This will open your MainActivity after 2 seconds.
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
Intent localIntent = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, MainActivity.class);
SplashScreen.this.startActivity(localIntent);
SplashScreen.this.finish();
}
}, 2000L);
This is the simplest method.
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
where R.layout.activity_main is replaced by your layout activity e.g. activity_splash

and clean your project,
Hope this help you.
The problem is, you've told the Main Activity to send the intent but you haven't told the Terms and Conditions activity to receive the intent. You do that by, in the onCreate method in the Ts and Cs page go getIntent() after setContentView
