Ive made mis-leading topic in my last question, so i open this new question to clear what I realy want. sorry for the inconvenience.
I wanna run two system(Android) activities one after another in specific order from my main activity.
now as we know, startActivity is an asynchronous operation, so i cant keep on a specific order.
so i thought maybe I should try to do it with dialogBox in the middle but also running a dialogBox is an asynchronous.
now as i said the activities which i try to run are Android activities, so i cant even start them with startActivityForResult (or mybe i can, but i dont get any result back to my main(calling) activity) Any tricks how could i manage with this issue?
Some code:
first activity:
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);
second activity:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(tmpPackageFile
.getAbsoluteFile()),
"application/vnd.android.package-archive");
startActivity(intent);
as you can see, i dont have any access to those activites, i can just run thire intents from my main activity.
