Android launch an activity from a broadcast receiver
问题 I know it may not be best practice but this is what i want to do. When my broadcast receiver is called - start a new activity which has is not fullscreen and has a transparent background - which opens on top of your current activity / desktop wallpaper. The code I have so far is as follows: I create + call a new activity with : Intent testActivityIntent = new Intent(context, com.andy.tabletsms.work.SMSPopup.class); testActivityIntent.putExtra("com.andy.tabletsms.message", main.msgs.get(i));
