Android: launch new activity from application class

Question

I have an android application that plays audio from an application class. I have a PhoneStateListener in my application class that pauses sound on a call.

I want to start a specific action when the call ends, but I cannot. here is my code:

public void getPhoneState(){ TelephonyManager mgr = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE); PhoneStateListener phoneStateListener = new PhoneStateListener() { @Override public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) { if (state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING) { if(audio.isPlaying()) audioPlayer.pause(); } else if(state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE) { audio.start(); Intent missintent= new Intent(context,AudioActivity.class); missintent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); startActivity(missintent); } else if(state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK) { if(audio.isPlaying()) audioPlayer.pause(); } super.onCallStateChanged(state, incomingNumber); } }; if(mgr != null) { mgr.listen(phoneStateListener, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE); } } public boolean handleAudio(String source, int id) { phoneState(); //Code for Playing Audio ..... ..... } 

I would appreciate it if someone could show me how to get started right.

Thanks!

Ok, so I know that you found another solution, but I searched for it and found something that worked for me. Instead of calling an intent, I used pendingIntent, an intent filter and a pending post. Here is a code snippet for everyone else having this problem.

 Context context = MyApplication.this.getApplicationContext(); Intent errorActivity = new Intent("com.error.activity");//this has to match your intent filter errorActivity.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 22, errorActivity, 0); try { pendingIntent.send(); } catch (CanceledException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } 

Then in your manifest just make sure you set the intent filter for fishing activity

 <activity android:name="UncaughtErrorDialogActivity" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="com.error.activity" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> </intent-filter> </activity>
