    <p>I read here ( <a href="http://androidlittle.blogspot.com/2009/08/intent-filter-for-share-link.html" rel="noreferrer">http://androidlittle.blogspot.com/2009/08/intent-filter-for-share-link.html</a> ) what intent-filter is required to handle the "share link" intent that the android web browser sends. I have placed this inside an block in my AndroidManifest.xml like so:</p> <pre><code> &lt;activity android:name=".ShareLink"&gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /&gt; &lt;data android:mimeType="text/plain" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;meta-data/&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; </code></pre> <p>I cannot for the life of me get this to be triggered though. When I share a link in the android browser, the emulator log shows it's creating a chooser intent, but doesn't give the details of the intent the chooser is acting on. No chooser window pops up, and the intent gets handled by the SMS application.</p> <p>I have also tried kicking off the intent manually:</p> <pre><code>adb shell am start -D -a android.intent.action.SEND -c android.intent.category.DEFAULT -t text/plain -d http://google.com/ </code></pre> <p>but the response I get is:</p> <pre><code>Starting: Intent { act=android.intent.action.SEND cat=[android.intent.category.DEFAULT] dat=http://google.com/ typ=text/plain } Error: Activity not started, unable to resolve Intent { act=android.intent.action.SEND cat=[android.intent.category.DEFAULT] dat=http://google.com/ typ=text/plain flg=0x10000000 } </code></pre> <p>Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? My main (launcher) activity works fine, so I assume there is no issue with installation on the emulator.</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.
