Android Error Cant Use FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE here

Question

I am trying to start AppB from AppA. On activity of AppB I issue:

Intent i = new Intent();
             i.setAction(\"START_APPB\");
             i.addFlag         


        

Answer 1

I ran into this and found out that this is a bug in android. At some point in history this two flags - FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK and FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE - get the same numeric value because some android developer changed one of their values without checking that it is already taken by another flag. The latest version (4.4) seems to have it fixed already.
