We are working on an android app project that invokes an Activity directly at different point of interest (we know its not advicable), even when the app is not running. We've done something but the specified Activity is not invoked at the specified POI. any help..this is the code for two POIs.

import android.location.LocationListener;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.location.Location;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.ComponentName;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.ServiceConnection;
import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.Window;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    LocationManager lm;


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);




        PendingIntent pendingIntent1 = PendingIntent.getActivity(this,0, new Intent (this, SecondActivity.class),0);
        PendingIntent pendingIntent2 = PendingIntent.getActivity(this,0, new Intent (this, ThirdActivity.class),0);


         lm.addProximityAlert(3.867247, 11.496267, 20, -1, pendingIntent1); 
        lm.addProximityAlert(3.8626208, 11.495961, 20, -1, pendingIntent2);  
    }



}

  • Hi Alain I'm sorry for my late reply but I haven't found a specific answer yet. The reason may be your applications permissions in your manifest file or a problem about unregistering sensors. – ACengiz Feb 05 '14 at 20:20

Try to register for location updates before you add proximity alert:

lm.requestLocationUpdates(...)

Also make sure you have enabled the location permission on you AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
