Hi, i have 2 questions about widgets update

  • I have 2 buttons and i need to change one button text when i press the other one, how can i do this?
  • The first time i open the widget it calls the onUpdate method, but it never calls it again. I need to update the widget every 2 seconds and i have this line in the xml.

    android:updatePeriodMillis="2000"

Do i need a service or should it works just with the updatePeriodMillis tag?

  • onUpdate method

    RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.newswidget);
    
    
    Intent intent = new Intent(context, DetalleConsulta.class);
    intent.putExtra(DetalleConsulta.CONSULTA_ID_NAME, "3");
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0);
    views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.btNews, pendingIntent);
    
    
    /* Inicializa variables para llamar el controlador */
    this.imei = ((TelephonyManager)context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE)).getDeviceId();
    this.controlador = new Controlador(this.imei);
    
    
    try {
        this.respuestas = this.controlador.recuperarNuevasRespuestas();
    
    
    
    if(this.respuestas != null && this.respuestas.size() > 0){
        Iterator<Consulta> iterRespuestas = this.respuestas.iterator();
        views.setTextViewText(R.id.btNews, ((Consulta)iterRespuestas.next()).getRespuesta());
    }
    
    } catch (PersistenciaException e) { //TODO manejar error } appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetIds, views);

thx a lot!!!
