I am trying to download an Android app from a server using the DownloadManager
class, install it and then detect when the installation is completed. I am using two receivers: one to detect the download process and the other to detect the install process. The first receiver works properly, but the second doesn't. What I am doing wrong?
DownloadManager dm = (DownloadManager) DownloadApplicationActivity.this.getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
DownloadManager.Request req = new DownloadManager.Request(Uri.parse(MY_LINK));
req.setTitle(MY_TITLE)
.setDescription("Downloading ....")
// download the package to the /sdcard/downlaod path.
.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(
Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS,
MY_PATH);
long enqueue = dm.enqueue(req);
BroadcastReceiver receiver= new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if (DownloadManager.ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE.equals(action)) {
Query query = new Query();
query.setFilterById(enqueue);
Cursor c =dm.query(query);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
int columnIndex = c.getColumnIndex(DownloadManager.COLUMN_STATUS);
if (DownloadManager.STATUS_SUCCESSFUL == c.getInt(columnIndex)) {
// show a notification bar.
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification(R.drawable.icon,"",System.currentTimeMillis());
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR;
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
// when the notification is clicked, install the app.
i.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(new File(Environment
.getExternalStorageDirectory() + APP_PATH)),"application/vnd.android.package-archive");
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(
activity, 0, i, 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(activity, MY_TEXT, MY_TEXT,pendingIntent);
notification.number += 1;
notificationManager.notify( 0, notification);
//i want to detect the app's installation, I register a ne receiver
registerReceiver(installReceiver,new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED));
}
}
};
BroadcastReceiver installReceiver= new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if (Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED.equals(action)) {
Uri data = intent.getData();
String packageName = data.getEncodedSchemeSpecificPart();
Log.i("The installed package is: ", "" + packageName);
}
}
};
I solved my problem, I added
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED);
intentFilter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_INSTALL);
intentFilter.addDataScheme("package");
before the line :
registerReceiver(installReceiver, intentFilter);
