I am getting trouble in making only one time login... My aim is first user gets login screen.. If he is new user he will register and then login...from then when ever user starts the application he should directly redirect to main activity that is to skip the login page..please friends help me out from this problem..please post me any tutorials or any code...please tell me how to modify in manifest file also...
I am using like this in login activity but i didn't achieve my task.
SharedPreferences pref;
SharedPreferences.Editor editor;
pref = getSharedPreferences("testapp", MODE_PRIVATE);
editor = pref.edit();
editor.putString("register","true");
editor.commit();
String getStatus=pref.getString("register", "nil");
if(getStatus.equals("true"))
// redirect to next activity
else
// show registration page again

http://www.androidhive.info/2012/08/android-session-management-using-shared-preferences/
A very good example of session management in android app.
Implement your SharedPreferences
this way:
Boolean isFirstTime;
SharedPreferences app_preferences = PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(Splash.this);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = app_preferences.edit();
isFirstTime = app_preferences.getBoolean("isFirstTime", true);
if (isFirstTime) {
//implement your first time logic
editor.putBoolean("isFirstTime", false);
editor.commit();
}else{
//app open directly
}
Use SharedPreferences. contains which tell an key is present or not in SharedPreferences. Change your code as:
SharedPreferences pref;
SharedPreferences.Editor editor;
pref = getSharedPreferences("testapp", MODE_PRIVATE);
editor = pref.edit();
if(pref.contains("register"))
{
String getStatus=pref.getString("register", "nil");
if(getStatus.equals("true")){
redirect to next activity
}else{
//first time
editor.putString("register","true");
editor.commit();
/// show registration page again
}
}
else{ //first time
editor = pref.edit();
editor.putString("register","true");
editor.commit();
/// show registration page again
}

hope you will get the answer and understanding clearly
Boolean flag;
SharedPreferences applicationpreferences = PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(MainActivity.this);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = applicationpreferences .edit();
flag = applicationpreferences .getBoolean("flag", false);
if (flag) {
///second time activity
}else{
//first time
editor.putBoolean("flag", true);
editor.commit();
}
Check out the Session Management in Android which shows you the way how you can manage the login if user is already logged into the application or not. And switch the user accordingly.
Hope this will help you.
1.for storing in stored preferences use this
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = getSharedPreferences("DeviceToken",MODE_PRIVATE).edit();
editor.putString("DeviceTokenkey","ABABABABABABABB12345");
editor.apply();
2.for retrieving the same use
SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("DeviceToken",
MODE_PRIVATE);
String deviceToken = prefs.getString("DeviceTokenkey", null);
