    <p>I'm tearing my hair out over this one. I've got an application for which I use a short title to display in the launcher etc. I've also got a longer string that I use to display at the top of the screen from within the app (where there is more space). The observant will note that I do try to set NoTitleBar but not all devices appear to obey this style, which is why the long title must remain.</p> <p>The problem I am having is that the label used on the app icon in the laucnher &amp; desktop seemingly randomly reverts to the long string on some devices. On other devices everything is fine. I can't determine whether there are some artifacts lingering from an old version of the app, if its something I am doing wrong or if it's a bug with certain devices. The fact that its happening across multiple devices/vendors makes me tend to doubt the later.</p> <p>My AndroidManifest consists of the standard stuff; an application tag containing a variety of activities. For reasons I dont understand, I was able to fix the problem on some devices by adding an android:label to all my IntentFilters.</p> <p>This is basically what my AndroidManifest looks like:</p> <pre><code> &lt;application android:label="@string/global_app_short_name" android:icon="@drawable/app"&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".HomeActivity" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A1" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A2" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A3" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A4" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A5" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A6" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".A7" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"&gt; &lt;intent-filter android:label="@string/global_app_short_name"&gt; ...some stuff... &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;/application&gt; </code></pre>

    2. COThats what I started with and where the problem began. I added the label to filter based on comments others had made in similar threads. It seems to fix the issue on most devices but not all :(

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
