    <p>I've got an Activity and a Service in my app and I'm sending broadcasts to each of them from the other. While my activity receives the broadcast that's sent from my Service, my Service doesn't pick up the broadcast sent from my Activity.</p> <p>Here's some of my code:</p> <p>Activity</p> <pre><code> @Override public void onResume() { Log.i(TAG, "in onResume"); IntentFilter messageFilter = new IntentFilter(Constants.MESSAGE); messageReceiver receiver = new messageReceiver(); registerReceiver(receiver, messageFilter); startService(new Intent(this, Server.class)); super.onResume(); } public class messageReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive (Context context, Intent intent) { Log.i(TAG, "in messageReceiver"); serverStatus.setText(intent.getStringExtra(Constants.MESSAGE)); } } @SuppressLint("ParserError") public OnClickListener btnSendClicked = new OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { Log.i(TAG, "btnSend clicked"); // This broadcast is NOT picked up by my Service Intent sendClicked = new Intent(Constants.SEND_CLICKED); sendBroadcast(sendClicked); } }; </code></pre> <p>Service</p> <pre><code> @SuppressLint({ "ParserError", "ParserError", "ParserError" }) public class btnSendClickedReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) { // Do some stuff } }; @Override public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) { Log.i(TAG, "in onStartCommand"); SERVERIP = getLocalIpAddress(); IntentFilter sendClickedFilter = new IntentFilter(Constants.SEND_CLICKED); btnSendClickedReceiver receiver = new btnSendClickedReceiver(); registerReceiver(receiver, sendClickedFilter); runServer(); return START_STICKY; } @SuppressLint("ParserError") public void runServer() { try { if (SERVERIP != null) { Log.i(TAG, "inside runServer"); // This broadcast is picked up by my activity: Intent intent = new Intent(Constants.MESSAGE); intent.putExtra(Constants.MESSAGE, "Listening on IP: " + SERVERIP); sendBroadcast(intent); serverSocket = new ServerSocket(SERVERPORT); while (true) { client = serverSocket.accept(); Log.i(TAG, "connected"); Intent connectedIntent = new Intent(Constants.MESSAGE); connectedIntent.putExtra(Constants.MESSAGE, "Connected"); sendBroadcast(connectedIntent); } } else { // no internet connection } } catch (Exception e) { //Error e.printStackTrace(); } } </code></pre> <p>Manifest</p> <pre><code> &lt;activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_main" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /&gt; &lt;action android:name="message"/&gt; &lt;action android:name="SendClicked"/&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;service android:name=".Server" android:process=":remote"&gt; &lt;/service&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have been trying to debug this for days, but I'm not sure what the problem is. Any help is appreciated.</p>

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.

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