I have an app with 2 classes, I need my app to open the second class CardActivity when the NFC tag tapped/swiped. The app opens fine, but MainActivity is run, instead of CardActivity.
I would hazard a guess that this is an issue with my manifest, but it looks correct. Here it is regardless:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.spotsofmagic.spotsofmagic"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" android:installLocation="auto">

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NFC" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" />

<application

android:label="@string/app_name" >
<activity

android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".CardActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<!-- Handle a collectable card NDEF record -->
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED"/>
<data android:mimeType="application/vnd.spotsofmagic.spotsofmagic"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
I'm confident the tag itself is correct, as I have opened it in another app to view it's contents.
Below are the two classes.
CardActivity:
package com.spotsofmagic.spotsofmagic;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.DialogInterface.OnClickListener;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.nfc.NdefMessage;
import android.nfc.NdefRecord;
import android.nfc.NfcAdapter;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Parcelable;
import android.util.Log;
import android.bluetooth.*;
public class CardActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
private static final String TAG = null;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.card_activity);
// see if app was started from a tag and show game console
Intent intent = getIntent();
Log.e(TAG, "Hello world. Intent Type: "+ intent.getType());
if(intent.getType() != null && intent.getType().equals(MimeType.NFC_DEMO)) {
Parcelable[] rawMsgs = getIntent().getParcelableArrayExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_NDEF_MESSAGES);
NdefMessage msg = (NdefMessage) rawMsgs[0];
NdefRecord cardRecord = msg.getRecords()[0];
String payload = new String(cardRecord.getPayload());
turnBluetoothOn(payload);
}
}
private void turnBluetoothOn(String payload) {
final AlertDialog.Builder builder=new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setTitle("Alert Dialog");
builder.setMessage(payload);
builder.setIcon(android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_alert);
BluetoothAdapter mBluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
if (mBluetoothAdapter == null) {
// Device does not support Bluetooth
}
if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) {
Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, 1);
}
android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid());
}
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
MainActivity:
package com.spotsofmagic.spotsofmagic;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.DialogInterface.OnClickListener;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.nfc.NdefMessage;
import android.nfc.NdefRecord;
import android.nfc.NfcAdapter;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Parcelable;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
private static final String TAG = "Activity...";
private NfcAdapter mAdapter;
private TextView mTextView;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);
// grab our NFC Adapter
mAdapter = NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this);
// TextView that we'll use to output messages to screen
mTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text_view);
displayMessage("Loading payload...");
}
private void displayMessage(String message) {
mTextView.setText(message);
}
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
Here is the code I used to write the tag. This is done on a different app incidentally:
NdefRecord appRecord = NdefRecord.createApplicationRecord("com.spotsofmagic.spotsofmagic");
// record that contains our custom "retro console" game data, using custom MIME_TYPE
byte[] payload = getPayload().getBytes();
byte[] mimeBytes = MimeType.NFC_DEMO.getBytes(Charset.forName("US-ASCII"));
NdefRecord cardRecord = new NdefRecord(NdefRecord.TNF_MIME_MEDIA, mimeBytes,
new byte[0], payload);
NdefMessage message = new NdefMessage(new NdefRecord[] { cardRecord, appRecord});
// Some code here removed for readability
Ndef ndef = Ndef.get(tag);
if (ndef != null) {
ndef.connect();
ndef.writeNdefMessage(message);
