Question

I want to create an activity with message ” Press any key to continue…” and by clicking any key on the keypad…another activity must be started.

Can any one give an idea how can I implement this?

Answer 1

You can override activity method onKeyUp:

public boolean onKeyUp (int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    //here you can start your activity, i.e. this way:
    Intent intent = new Intent();
    intent.setClass(YourActivity.this, YourAnotherActivity.class);
    startActivity(intent);  
    return true;
}

You don’t have to pay attention on what keyCode was sent to your method, cause this does not matter.

Also you can override onKeyDown() instead of this. In this case, activity will start a little bit earlier (after you push you finger down).

Happy coding 🙂
