Automatically bring an application to the foreground

Hi guys,.

I'm struggling with this problem for a long time. Basically I'm looking at the State of the battery and when the battery level drops below certain thresholds, I need to bring my main app window to the foreground and display an alert.

So far, I have tried to do using the framework of the appeal, but the problem was that as soon as my app is not in the foreground, it cannot send an invocation.

Recently, I installed Skype for BB10 and I saw a similar feature - the app goes first when someone calls me. Thus, it is certainly possible somehow. Can you give me a clue where to look?

Very appreciated

Thank you!

Preferential partners get preferential treatment, including api is not quite ready for us normal developers.

You need to wait for applications without a head, available soon, or for them to publish the api for this feature.

  • How to push my application to the foreground after a phone call

    Hi all

    I develop a fairly simple application similar to a phonebook. It is possible to display the contact details and place a call to him with the help of a push button.

    I pass the call in this way:

        public void call(String number) {
    
            PhoneArguments phoneArgs = new PhoneArguments(PhoneArguments.ARG_CALL,
                    number);
            Invoke.invokeApplication(Invoke.APP_TYPE_PHONE, phoneArgs);
    
        }
    

    It works very well, but at the end of the call of the interface of the telephone remains in the foreground. I can't understand how I can bring my application in the foreground.

    My application is supposed to work on different OS from 4.2.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yes, but nothing too obvious.

    the phonelistener runs in the context of the phone application. If you call UiApplication.getUiApplication () you get a reference to the phone, not your own application.

    use a global event to connect the event to your application.

  • Notification when the Application in the foreground changes?

    Is it possible to get a notification when the application in the foreground changes?  For example, if the user launches the browser, can my application be notified?  I couldn't see anything through the global event listener callback.  I know it is possible to query for this application, but is not ideal.

    Jacul is right, you get notifications on your application becomes the application in the foreground (and vice versa) but there is no way to get this information on other applications.

    Hello everyone, I have an application that is run automatically at startup. I need the application stays on foreground for 5 seconds when the system boots. How can I do this? Help, please.

    Thank you...

    If this is resolved can mark you properly.  Help instructions in link above.

    If not, then given your needs, I would go with a comprehensive dialogue screen and a DialogCloseListener, that will kill your application if the answer is not correct.  .

    What platform are you targeting - BlackBerry 10 or is on the BBOS?

    If its 10 BlackBerry, there are system events that occur when the State of the application changes.  Theoretically, we could build an extension of WebWorks (similar to the one proposed here https://github.com/blackberry/WebWorks-Community-APIs/issues/150) who listens to the following event:

    NAVIGATOR_WINDOW_INACTIVE

  • Request is not automatically brought in the foreground on the second launch

    Hey,.

    I have a problem which is probably easiest explained using the ActiveTextFieldsDemo sample that comes with the SDK.

    Basically, if I enter in my calendar app, type a number in a text field 9-digit Active, click it, and then click the location, the FmcUiApplication instance is loaded, no problems so far.

    Now, if I then choose to click on the "End" button which sends the program in the background, and you want to call the application from an active text field, I can't--newspapers report that the application runs already, if I'm going to 'demand' in the BB menu, I can see it is running, but it is not brought in the forground of the invocation of active text field automatically.

    I tried the following:

    1 place the following inside the Run() to the ApplicationMenuItem instance method.

    ApplicationManager.getApplicationManager().requestForeground(ApplicationManager.getApplicationManager().getProcessId(ApplicationDescriptor.currentApplicationDescriptor()));
    

    That had no effect on the application in the foreground

    2. try to close the application when it is sent in the background, by substituting the deactivate() method and by calling requestClose(). This was not able to close the application and therefore did not work around the issue.

    Any help would be appreciated!

  • How to make a single instance of the application regardless of the main application and the other entry point for the application

    Hello experts,

    I explain the sceniro of my application. My request is mainly a time system as well as some other features related businesses. My app has a landing screen which is actually a custom made calendar that accumulates information captured time. There is also a time where entry screen user at will has worked time and other related information. The user has the option to run the application manually at the entrance of the time and see the reports and there the event listener to follow the events of call/SMS/e-mail that invokes the application automatically and user to the scree of time entry.

    Problem one: I used headphones to follow the events of call/SMS/e-mail. When an event is called, alternet point of entry of the application the application is running. Application then get calls time, contact information etc. and push my entry screen with pre-filled information time.

    As such, it works very well, as expected, but the problem is the number of instence that he is creating. Each track event creates a new instance of the application. I want to keep only one instance.

    Two problems: to solve this problem, I removed the other point of entry and RuntimeStore to keep the running instance of my application. This instance of the application in a way keeps in singletone as such when the listener calls the application it finds that the application is running in the background. Then she moves the application to the foreground. It works very well, I mean the application user interface called on the foreground, but he won't have to time entry screen automatically as I hope. The block of code is as follows,

    public static final long applicationID =0x8ddc44508679bd5bL;
    static NSIApplication NSIInstance=null;
    RuntimeStore runtimeStore = RuntimeStore.getRuntimeStore();
    
    if (NSIInstance != null)
                {
                    NSIInstance.requestForeground();
                }
                else
                {
                    synchronized (runtimeStore)
                    {
                        NSIInstance = (NSIApplication)runtimeStore.get(applicationID);
                                            //listener initialization
                        NSIListener.Initialze();
                    }
    
                    if (NSIInstance != null)
                    {                   NSIInstance.requestForeground();
                                        //event's info manipulation and push the time entry screen                                     NSIInstance.RUN_NSIApplication();
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        NSIInstance=NSIApplication.getInstance();
                        NSIInstance.RUN_NSIApplication();
    
                        synchronized(runtimeStore)
                        {
                            runtimeStore.put(applicationID, NSIInstance);
                        }
    
                        NSIInstance.enterEventDispatcher();
                    }
                }
    

    I expect a guideline to follow so that I can reach the expected my workflow. Thanks in advance

    I can't propose to use the runtimestore to store instances of the application, as it was used on an example RIM, he has never worked for me.

    I suggest to use a single point of entry and the automated screen using a global event or status in the runtimestore.

  • Is there a way to automatically update iOS applications during synchronization?

    I noticed that with iOS 9.2.1 apps that I've updated in iTunes don't are not automatically updated in my devices iOS during the synchronization process. I need to scroll through the entire apps list, select the update apps I want to transfer my devices and then synchronize. I'm not sure of the logic behind this change as it just to create an extra step and requires more time.

    I tried to find a way in the preferences to change this, so that when I update the apps in iTunes on my Mac and then synchronize my devices, iTunes automatically updated all applications on the device. Is there a way to do this?

    Check this setting in iTunes is enabled:

    "Automatically install new applications" under the list of applications on your applications tab when looking at the device settings (the unit must be connected).

  • Can not pass probably for my application when the call is answered

    BlackBerry Bold 9700, v5.0.0.862

    I develop a BlackBerry application and I want the phone to launch my application when an incoming call is * responding *. The code I must do this works intermittently, but it fails as often to succeed. Sometimes you will see my app temporarily for the current call (the screen with the duration of the call, etc.) to appear above it, or sometimes the current call is displayed without my app appearing at all.

    Here is the code I use:

    Welcome on the support forums.

    My guess would be that your application is reliable began, but the phone application is given to the foreground drops.

    You can avoid this by replacing the deactivate method in your application to the foreground application (but don't forget to add the control code, or you can never leave your app without leaving it).

    Notice that the code inside the earpiece of the phone is executed in the phone app. do not sleep or similar here!

    You should also check if your application is already running, and then inform via a global event.

  • Can I do the video camera automatically in my application?

    As we know, when we use the playbook to take video, we must press the record button on the screen.

    I develop an application that monitor the acceleration of the playbook, then take the video automatically, but for now I can't do the camera work himself, it should be continued by the user by pressing the record button on the display of work...

    I wonder if there are ways to make the camera take video automatically by the code in my application, not the user action?

    naveenan wrote:
    Hello

    Yes, you can. Here is the code example to show how do.

    Fake, you can't without an extension for now. What you have linked, as can be read in the documentation for this feature of the API, it will open the photo/video app and user needs to make a photo/video by themselves and in the app, it will provide the path where the taking of photo/video was stored.

    If it's not automatically, isn't. In HTML5, what you might want to use getUserMedia feature when it will be ready in BB10 in the future. For now, you would need to have an extension of such behavior, as far as I know, to use cam inline video in your application.

  • A method that runs when an application is called in the foreground?

    Just back to Java after a year of Action Script only and trying of don't forget do not put "var" in front of my variables. In any case, I remember to do that just do not remember how.

    Yes, that's correct.

  • Check if the application is in the foreground

    Hello everyone. My application runs in the background and has a GPS receiver and phonelistener. I created an eventinjector to ignore calls entrants (supposed to ignore calls only when the application is in the foreground), but it also ignores the call when the application is in the background. I tried

    {if (this.isDisplayed ())}
    Code number
    } else {}
    Do nothing
    }

    But this isn't working, the application continues to ignore all incoming calls, even when he is in the background.

  • Add SystemListener in any application related to the foreground?

    Can we add SystemListener as soon as any application, in blackberry, comes to foregound? I mean, how can I check when ANY application comes to the foreground and SystemListener add?

    Thanks in advance.

    You cannot add a listener for another application.

    You might be able to consider applications "active" and figure that it has the focus. You can also detect when it starts or stops using the ApplicationManager.getVisibleApplications
