I want to call google map intent without showing "Complete Action Dialog"?

Is it possible? Here is my code.

String uri = "http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + Utils.getLatitude(ShowDetails.this)+","+Utils.getLongitude(ShowDetails.this)+"&daddr="+userLatitude+","+userLongitude;
startActivity(new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_DEFAULT, Uri.parse(uri)));

Below code helps me to solve my question.

String uri = "http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + Utils.getLatitude(ShowDetails.this)+","+Utils.getLongitude(ShowDetails.this)+"&daddr="+userLatitude+","+userLongitude;
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
intent.setClassName("com.google.android.apps.maps", "com.google.android.maps.MapsActivity");
startActivity(intent);

Use the Google Maps URI rather than "http://[...] "

It goes something like this:

String uri = "geo:" + latitude + "," + longitude

Check out http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/g-app-intents.html for the info.

what is the uri for showing driving direction on google map ? – Chirag Nov 15 '11 at 06:05
You can try placing the necessary info after the '?' of `geo:0,0?q=my+street+address` and see if that works. – jmcdale Nov 15 '11 at 06:09
can you give me example using above my string uri in question . – Chirag Nov 15 '11 at 06:12
I'm not sure if I can; I really have no idea if the geo uri will work the way you'd like it to. I would just try a few different things to see if they'd work. Maybe try adding everything after the ? in the http uri.

Try ACTION_VIEW instead of ACTION_DEFAULT:

String uri = "geo:"+ latitude + "," + longitude;
startActivity(new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri)));

check this Android doc Intents List and browse to "Google Maps".
