Question

I ‘m trying to launch the camera app on button click but I don’t want to hav the fot
I want it to behave like it is launched by the lauc´ncher but when I call my code the application simply closes and the camera isn’t starting.There isn’t even an error code.

Code :

if(v == camera)
    {

        //Intent in=new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); 

            // this.startActivity(in);



        Intent startupIntent = new Intent();
        ComponentName distantActivity = new ComponentName("com.android.camera","com.android.camera/.Camera");
        startupIntent.setComponent(distantActivity);
        startupIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
        startActivity(startupIntent);    


        finish();
    }

Answer 1

use android.intent.action.VIEW instead of Intent.ACTION_MAIN as:

    Intent startupIntent = new Intent();

    ComponentName distantActivity= new ComponentName("YOUR_CAMRA_APP_PACKAGE","YOUR_CAMRA_APP_PACKAGE.ACTIVTY_NAME");

// LIKE IN LG  DEVICE WE HAVE AS

//ComponentName distantActivity= new //ComponentName("com.lge.camera","com.lge.camera.CameraApp");

    startupIntent .setComponent(distantActivity);

    startupIntent .setAction("android.intent.action.VIEW");

    startActivity(startupIntent);
