Thank you

"and still can't solve this issue" -- and the issue is, what, precisely? If the issue you failed to write is that your activity is not a choice for `mpay2park://` URLs, I would delete `android:host=""`. — CommonsWare, Aug 30 '12 at 23:58
Then delete `android:host=""` and try again. If it still does not work, show a sample URL that is failing. — CommonsWare, Aug 31 '12 at 00:08
@CommonsWare could you have a look a this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12175259/custom-mediaplayer-class-in-android. Sorry Basant, I dont know any other way to communicate with CommonWare. — Lazy Ninja, Aug 31 '12 at 01:07

You can use below manifest file to open abc://xyz.com from browser addressbar :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="8"
    android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name="com.sample.openfrombrowser.MainActivity"
        android:exported="true"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:launchMode="singleInstance" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>

        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <data
                android:host="xyz.com"
                android:scheme="abc" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <data
                android:host="google.co.in"
                android:pathPrefix="/"
                android:scheme="http" />
            <data
                android:host="www.google.co.in"
                android:pathPrefix="/"
                android:scheme="http" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

This will ask option(with your application name) in dialog to open this url.

hope so this will work for you.

Enjoy.
