Voice Recognition and widget

[mcmanu]

Hi
is it possible to use Voice recogntion in a widget?
i tried it but nothing happens

'Service module
Sub Process_Globals
   Dim rv As RemoteViews
Dim vr1 As VoiceRecognition
End Sub
Sub Service_Create
   rv = ConfigureHomeWidget("L1", "rv",0, "widgettest")
End Sub

Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent)
   If rv.HandleWidgetEvents(StartingIntent) Then Return
   vr1.Initialize("vr1")
End Sub

Sub rv_RequestUpdate
   rv.UpdateWidget
End Sub

Sub rv_Disabled
   StopService("")
End Sub

Sub Service_Destroy

End Sub



Sub ImageView1_Click

vr1.Listen

End Sub

You will need to first start an activity and then handle the voice recognition from this activity. You can use a transparent activity.

Hi

Thx Erel, i give it a try
is it possible to make only one activity Transparent?
because i want to use the voice recognition for the widget and then it should open my app which is not transparent

 

[Erel]

Yes. There are several examples in the forum.

Thank you Erel

Sorry for asking, but what happens when i choose "do not overwrite manifest"?
Do i have to put new things (like activitys i write) in the manifest on my own? or can i ignore it? for what is the AndroidManifest-Example?

i ask because i didn´t find any solution to make only one Activity transparent with the manifest editor

You should not use it.

Any change can be done with the manifest editor:

SetActivityAttribute(<activity>, android:theme, @style/Theme.Transparent)
