How to get trigger that screen is locked or on in android??
i tried using SCREEN_OFF & SCREEN_ON action in broadcast receiver but it's not working.
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.d("XYZ", "Screen ON/OFF");
Toast.makeText(context, "screen",10000).show();
if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON))
{
.......
}
}
in activity i have registered broadcast like-
screen is object of my broadcast receiver
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF);
mContext.registerReceiver(screen, filter);
Call the UpdateService.class
within your MainActivity.class
.
startService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, UpdateService.class));
UpdateService.class
public class UpdateService extends Service {
BroadcastReceiver mReceiver;
public static int countOn = 0;
public static int countOff = 0;
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
// register receiver that handles screen on and screen off logic
Log.i("UpdateService", "Started");
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_ANSWER);
mReceiver = new MyReceiver();
registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter);
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
unregisterReceiver(mReceiver);
Log.i("onDestroy Reciever", "Called");
super.onDestroy();
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
boolean screenOn = intent.getBooleanExtra("screen_state", false);
if (!screenOn) {
Log.i("screenON", "Called");
Log.i("viaService", "CountOn =" + countOn);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Awake", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
} else {
Log.i("screenOFF", "Called");
Log.i("viaService", "CountOff =" + countOff);
}
return START_STICKY;
}
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
}
Receiver class
public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private boolean screenOff;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF)) {
screenOff = true;
// Log.i("via Receiver","Normal ScreenOFF" );
} else if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON)) {
screenOff = false;
} else if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_ANSWER)) {
}
Intent i = new Intent(context, UpdateService.class);
i.putExtra("screen_state", screenOff);
context.startService(i);
}
}
Hey try using dynamic calling of broadcast,I tried this it will surly work...
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
//Create broadcast object
BroadcastReceiver mybroadcast = new BroadcastReceiver() {
//When Event is published, onReceive method is called
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.i("[BroadcastReceiver]", "MyReceiver");
if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON)){
Log.i("[BroadcastReceiver]", "Screen ON");
}
else if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF)){
Log.i("[BroadcastReceiver]", "Screen OFF");
}
}
};
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
registerReceiver(mybroadcast, new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON));
registerReceiver(mybroadcast, new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF));
}
}
