I am using Following Code to start setting I want to launch the setting activity which is started by android ins
PackageList allowedAppsPackageName=CallHelper.Ds.getPackageList();
PackageManager manager = CallDetectService.packageManager;
Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
mainIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
final List<ResolveInfo> apps = manager.queryIntentActivities(mainIntent, 0);
Collections.sort(apps, new ResolveInfo.DisplayNameComparator(manager));
final int count = apps.size();
ResolveInfo info=new ResolveInfo();;
GridViewAppList.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
info= apps.get(i);
if(info.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName.contains("setting"))
break;
}
ApplicationInfo application = new ApplicationInfo();
application.title = info.loadLabel(manager);
application.setActivity(new ComponentName(
packageName,
info.activityInfo.name),
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
application.icon = info.activityInfo.loadIcon(manager);
application.packagename=packageName;
Log.i("PKG", application.packagename+" "+packageName+" "+info.activityInfo.name);
GridViewAppList.add(application);
On Clicking the back button from the New Activity, the finish() method is called and the activity destroys and returns to the home screen.
Explanation. Generally, every activity is having its UI(Layout). But if a developer wants to create an activity without UI, he can do it.
use interface to communicate with activity from non activity class. create colorChange() in interface and get the instance of interface in non activity class and call that method.
You can use this snippet to open Settings
Activity :
Intent intent=new Intent();
intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.android.settings", "com.android.settings.Settings"));
startActivity(intent);
If you do not know what Activity you have to open,you can find it's name and it's package name as I mentioned here.
