Android Notification PendingIntent Extras null
I am trying to send information from notification to invoked activity, while from my activity I got null.
The code for notification is:
private void showNotification() {
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
if (D)
Log.d(TAG, "Id: " + Id);
resultIntent.putExtra("ineedid", deviceId);
TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this);
stackBuilder.addParentStack(MeterActivity.class);
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(resultIntent);
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
// Bundle tmp = resultIntent.getExtras();
// if (tmp == null) {
// Log.d(TAG, "tmp bundle is null");
// } else {
// long id = tmp.getLong("ineedid", -1);
// Log.d(TAG, "tmp id : " + id);
// }
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(
BLEMessengerService.this)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_action_search)
.setContentTitle("Event tracker")
.setContentText("Events received").setOngoing(true)
.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent)
.setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis());
int mId = R.string.service_notification_start_service;
mNM.notify(mId, mBuilder.getNotification());
}
Code for get information from intent in main activity;
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
long deviceID = getIntent().getLongExtra("ineedid",
-1);
if (ID == -1) {
if (D)
Log.i(TAG_D, "Wrong Id received.");
finish();
} else {
device = dataSource.getDeviceByID(deviceID);
if (D)
Log.i(TAG_D, "Get the id.");
}
} else {
if (D)
Log.d(TAG_D, "Bundle is null");
finish();
}
I have verified before the notification get notified, bundle is not null, and it has id in extras. While, when I tried to fetch it from intent, it's gone. Help.
in PendingIntent use this flag PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
it's work for me
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
For me, in addition to setting Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP , I had to add a unique action to the intent:
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(caller, NotificationActivity.class);
String xId = getNextUniqueId();
resultIntent.putExtra("x_id", xId);
resultIntent.setAction(xId);
resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
.. without the setAction(..), Extras is null on the Intent received by my NotificationActivity.
