Android Question How to call timer_tick from a different activity

Kwame Twum said:

Hi everyone, I've got three activities in my project say: (Main, Act1 and Act2)
I've declared a timer in Main (Process_Globals).
I've created a sub timer_tick event in Act.
I also initialized and enabled the timer in Act1 at Activity_Create
However, my tic event doesn't fire... when Act1 is started.

Am I doing anything wrong? Need help.

Which activity contains the Tick code?
The Tick will only fire on the activity that is visible.

You should declare the timer in the Act1 Process_Globals!

Can you post your EXACT code?
Where is the timer initialized? It MUST be initialized in Act1.

It doesnt matter where you declare the timer as long as it is in process globals (it can be accessed by any module).
It does matter where you initialize it, because it uses that activity/service context to create the event within the same module.
