    <p>I have my service working, but for some reason it will not start my activity. It does not show an error in the logcat either. I want my service to start another activity. Is that possible? I checked to make sure my if statement was correct and it is. It does print out the HELLO. </p> <p>service code below:</p> <pre><code>package com.example.textsmslock; import java.util.Iterator; import java.util.List; import android.app.ActivityManager; import android.app.Service; import android.content.Intent; import android.content.pm.PackageManager; import android.os.IBinder; import android.util.Log; public class Logs extends Service { @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0){ // TODO Auto-generated method stub return null; } @Override public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onStart(intent, startId); System.out.println("LOGS STARTED"); ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager)this.getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE); List l = am.getRunningAppProcesses(); Iterator i = l.iterator(); PackageManager pm = this.getPackageManager(); while(i.hasNext()) { ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo info = (ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo)(i.next()); try { CharSequence c = pm.getApplicationLabel(pm.getApplicationInfo(info.processName, PackageManager.GET_META_DATA)); Log.w("LABEL", c.toString()); //System.out.println("this is the charsequence: " + c); //System.out.println("this is the log: " + Log.w("LABEL", c.toString())); if(c.equals("Messaging")) { System.out.println("HELLO \n"); startActivity(new intent(("com.example.textsmslock.Enable")); } } catch(Exception e) { //Name Not FOund Exception } } @Override public void onDestroy() { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onDestroy(); System.out.println("LOGS STOPPED"); } } </code></pre> <p>android manifest</p> <pre><code>&lt;activity android:name=".Enable" android:label="@string/title_activity_enable" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="com.example.textsmslock.Enable" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;service android:name=".Logs" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/service&gt; </code></pre>

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.
