I am trying to use a theme tune throughout all my activities. From other Stack Overflow questions it has been suggested that a Service is the correct way to do this. In order to stop the theme tune from playing I need to detect when an activity is executed that isn’t part of my application.
Is there any way to do this?
Can’t you just use onPause() and onResume(), etc for all your activities and keep track of whether they’re still being used or not and send a message to the service or something? I don’t think you can tell when other apps are being used that elegantly but I may be very wrong…
There’s also
onAudioFocusChange(etc)which lets you detect if something else is trying to play music…
