Here is how I share the content through Share Action Provider:
Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"Check the Link : " + url);
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Share with"));
I want to style the share with window. I want to change the text color and highlighter line color from default blue color to my custom color. I am using Holo light theme. I don't know how to style those elements. Can anyone point out a reference to do that?
Is there a way to access attributes of android.widget.ShareActionProvider through styling?
I don't know how to style the dialog, i have seen different layouts in different devices. But you can use PackageManager.queryIntentActivities(Intent intent, int flag) to get all activities that could handle this intent. And use the list data to create your own chooser.
EDIT: a demo
final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"));
PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
final List<ResolveInfo> infos = pm.queryIntentActivities(intent,
PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
CharSequence[] names = new CharSequence[infos.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < infos.size(); i++) {
names[i] = infos.get(i).loadLabel(pm);
}
new AlertDialog.Builder(this).setItems(names,
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
ResolveInfo info = infos.get(which);
intent.setClassName(info.activityInfo.packageName,
info.activityInfo.name);
startActivity(intent);
}
}).show();
As far as I know, you cannot style the chooser dialog. It is a system-level actvity, and uses the default system theme.
You can also use like this
final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,getString(R.string.app_name));
intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,getString(R.string.tell_your_frnd));
PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
final List<ResolveInfo> infos = pm.queryIntentActivities(intent,
PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
name = new String[infos.size()];
image=new Drawable[infos.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < infos.size(); i++)
{
name[i] = (String) infos.get(i).loadLabel(pm);
image[i]=infos.get(i).loadIcon(pm);
}
CustomGrid adapter = new CustomGrid(ShareActivity.this,name,image);
mGridView.setAdapter(adapter);
mGridView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,int position, long id)
{
ResolveInfo info = infos.get(position);
intent.setClassName(info.activityInfo.packageName,
info.activityInfo.name);
startActivity(intent);
}
});

I try to start activity from a watchface or a app android.
I able to start the view to choose watchface when user tap on watchface :
#Override
public void onTapCommand(
#TapType int tapType, int x, int y, long eventTime) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SET_WALLPAPER));
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
}
I want start other activities like Google Agenda, Google fit, or other ...
It's possible to list all intents available on the device ?
Thanks
This will return all of the launcher activities on a device:
public static List<ResolveInfo> gatherApps(Context context) {
if(allApps == null) {
final PackageManager packageManager = context.getPackageManager();
final Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
mainIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
List<ResolveInfo> infoList = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(mainIntent, 0);
Collections.sort(infoList, new Comparator<ResolveInfo>() {
#Override
public int compare(ResolveInfo lhs, ResolveInfo rhs) {
return lhs.loadLabel(packageManager).toString().compareTo(rhs.loadLabel(packageManager).toString());
}
});
allApps = infoList;
}
return allApps;
}
I have used following code for sharing image and text both on twitter wall. Please help me why following code is not working in my application? Launcher activity opens but it display only text and not showing image. And also share text only instead of both image and text.
Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
share.setType("image/*");
final PackageManager pm = mainActivity.getPackageManager();
#SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
final List activityList = pm.queryIntentActivities(share, 0);
int len = activityList.size();
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
{
final ResolveInfo app = (ResolveInfo) activityList.get(i);
Log.print("Packages", app.activityInfo.name);
if (app.activityInfo.packageName.startsWith("com.twitter.android"))
{
Log.print(":::: Twitter Share Name Activity ::: " + (app.activityInfo.name).toString());
try
{
final ActivityInfo activity = app.activityInfo;
final ComponentName name = new ComponentName(activity.applicationInfo.packageName, activity.name);
share.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
share.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
share.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
share.setComponent(name);
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Pref.getValue(mainActivity, Labels.TITLE, ""));
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, new URI(new URL(imgUrl).toString()));
startActivity(share);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
Log.error(":::: Twitter image path Exception::::", e.toString());
}
break;
}
}
I use code as follow to share image to twitter but when display screen of twitter app to input text and image,it only display text ,image don't display.
public void shareImageByTwitter(Context mContext, String path) {
File myFile = new File(path);
final String[] twitterApps = {
// package // name - nb installs (thousands)
"com.twitter.android", "com.twidroid",
"com.handmark.tweetcaster", "com.thedeck.android" };
Intent tweetIntent = new Intent();
tweetIntent.setType("image/jpeg");
tweetIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(myFile));
final PackageManager packageManager = mContext.getPackageManager();
List<ResolveInfo> list = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(
tweetIntent,0);
for (int i = 0; i < twitterApps.length; i++) {
for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : list) {
String p = resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName;
if (p != null && p.startsWith(twitterApps[i])) {
tweetIntent.setPackage(p);
}
}
}
mContext.startActivity(tweetIntent);
}
How must I do.
background
it's very common to share content by using intents:
final Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("text/plain");
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "msg");
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
final Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share using...");
startActivity(chooserIntent);
it's even possible to add receipients to the same sharing intent :
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { email });
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, new String[] { phoneNumber });
problem
the problem is the content of the message itself. on SMS, messages can cost money, so it's important to keep them short in order to send only a single message instead of multiple messages.
so you might say , just keep the message short, but i would like to be able to do both - create a fancy message for all apps (maybe add embed images and links), except that if it's for SMS, make it short.
what i've done is to create a dialog with the intents to be used, while for sms i simply set the message to be shorter.
question
how can i do it?
i've tried the next code , but it for some reason it doesn't show the phone number for sms sending.
here's the code:
create and show the dialog:
final String phoneNumber = "12346556", email = "test#gmail.com";
final String smsMessage="sms", message="message", title="title";
final PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
//
final Uri uri = Uri.parse("smsto:" + phoneNumber);
final Intent smsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, uri);
smsIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
smsIntent.putExtra("sms_body", smsMessage);
smsIntent.putExtra("address", new String[] { phoneNumber });
final List<ResolveInfo> smsResInfo = pm.queryIntentActivities(smsIntent, 0);
final Set<String> smsPackages = new HashSet<String>();
for (final ResolveInfo ri : smsResInfo)
smsPackages.add(ri.activityInfo.packageName + ri.activityInfo.name);
//
final Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("text/plain");
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, title);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { email });
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, new String[] { phoneNumber });
final List<ResolveInfo> shareResInfo = pm.queryIntentActivities(shareIntent, 0);
//
final List<ResolveInfo> mergedResInfo = new ArrayList<ResolveInfo>(smsResInfo);
for (final ResolveInfo resolveInfo : shareResInfo) {
if (smsPackages.contains(resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName + resolveInfo.activityInfo.name))
continue;
mergedResInfo.add(resolveInfo);
}
//
final AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
final String[] items = new String[mergedResInfo.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < mergedResInfo.size(); i++) {
final ResolveInfo resolveInfo = mergedResInfo.get(i);
items[i] = resolveInfo.loadLabel(pm).toString();
}
//
final ListAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapterWithIcon(MainActivity.this, items, mergedResInfo);
builder.setTitle("Select app").setAdapter(adapter, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(final DialogInterface dialog, final int item) {
final ResolveInfo resolveInfo = mergedResInfo.get(item);
Intent intent;
if (smsPackages.contains(resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName + resolveInfo.activityInfo.name))
intent = smsIntent;
else
intent = shareIntent;
intent.setClassName(resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName, resolveInfo.activityInfo.name);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_WHEN_TASK_RESET);
startActivity(intent);
}
}).show();
ArrayAdapterWithIcon class:
public class ArrayAdapterWithIcon extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
private final List<ResolveInfo> mMergedResInfo;
public ArrayAdapterWithIcon(final MainActivity context, final String[] items,
final List<ResolveInfo> mergedResInfo) {
super(context, android.R.layout.select_dialog_item, items);
this.mMergedResInfo = mergedResInfo;
}
#Override
public View getView(final int position, final View convertView, final ViewGroup parent) {
final View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
final TextView textView = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
final Drawable icon = mMergedResInfo.get(position).loadIcon(getPackageManager());
textView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(icon, null, null, null);
textView.setCompoundDrawablePadding((int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 12,
getContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics()));
return view;
}
}
what can i do in order to fix this code?
ok ,the problem is with those lines:
final Intent smsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, uri);
smsIntent.putExtra("address", new String[] { phoneNumber });
should be:
final Intent smsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
smsIntent.putExtra("address", phoneNumber);
if you need to send to more numbers, just add "," between them.
i also think the part with the EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER isn't needed.
Basically, I want to get a list of all installed apps and pick one to run from an activity.
I've tried ACTION_PICK with Intents but that seems to leave out apps that were downloaded and it has a bunch of junk in it.
Thanks
// to get the list of apps you can launch
Intent intent = new Intent(ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
List<ResolveInfo> infos = getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);
// resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName = packageName
// resolveInfo.activityInfo.name = className
// reusing that intent
intent.setClassName(packageName, className);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
startActivity(intent)
Hope that's enough to help you figure out.
final File favFile = new File(Environment.getRootDirectory(), DEFAULT_FAVORITES_PATH);
try {
favReader = new FileReader(favFile);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, "Couldn't find or open favorites file " + favFile);
return;
}//gives the path for downloaded apps in directory
private void loadApplications(boolean isLaunching) {
if (isLaunching && mApplications != null) {
return;
}
PackageManager manager = getPackageManager();
Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
mainIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
final List<ResolveInfo> apps = manager.queryIntentActivities(mainIntent, 0);
Collections.sort(apps, new ResolveInfo.DisplayNameComparator(manager));
if (apps != null) {
final int count = apps.size();
if (mApplications == null) {
mApplications = new ArrayList<ApplicationInfo>(count);
}
mApplications.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
ApplicationInfo application = new ApplicationInfo();
ResolveInfo info = apps.get(DEFAULT_KEYS_SEARCH_LOCAL);
application.title = info.loadLabel(manager);
application.setActivity(new ComponentName(
info.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName,
info.activityInfo.name),
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
application.icon = info.activityInfo.loadIcon(manager);
mApplications.add(application);
}
}
This will help u to load all the apps downloaded.
