POMainActivity fails on phone
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm doing a very simple example where I want a button to generate a notification. I'm not looking for interactivity (so no Intent); just that a simple notification should be published. The UI contains just a single button, which is clicked to generate the notification. </p> <p>Here's the code:</p> <pre><code>package ank.notificationdemo; import android.R.drawable; import android.os.Bundle; import android.app.Activity; import android.app.Notification; import android.app.NotificationManager; import android.view.View; import android.widget.Button; public class MainActivity extends Activity { Button btn_notify; Notification noti; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); btn_notify = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_notify); noti = new Notification.Builder(MainActivity.this) .setContentTitle("Alert!").setContentText("Shipwreck at 22N-56E. Hurry!").setSmallIcon(drawable.ic_dialog_alert) .build(); btn_notify.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View arg0) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub NotificationManager mgr = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); noti.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL; mgr.notify(100, noti); } }); } } </code></pre> <p>The problem is that this works on the Emulator, but the main activity fails to load on my Android phone (running ICS). Other examples have, however, worked fine.</p> <p>Any clue as to what might be going wrong?</p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
