Hi, I have a widget that I want to use as lockscreen as well ( since android 4.2+ allows it), so I need to change the layout when the widget is on the lock screen and when is on the regular screen, how can i do it? I tried to use the Intent ACTION_USER_PRESENT but my BroadcastReceiver never gets it. I have it defined in the manifest as well:
Is there any other way that I can check when the widget is in the lock screen or not? I tried this guide as well:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#lockscreen
But how do I check that every time that I lock/unlock the screen?
Thanks!
EDIT: I ended up using Intent.ACTION_USER_PRESENT to check when the screen is unlocked, Thanks!
PHP:
<receiver
android:name="com.myApp.myApp.MyWidgetIntentReceiver"
android:exported="false"
android:label="widgetBroadcastReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" >
</action>
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.appwidget.provider"
android:resource="@xml/demo_widget_provider" />
</receiver>
public class MyWidgetIntentReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_USER_PRESENT){
Log.i("TICK", intent.getAction());
}
}
}
