@MOSAAB_BANI_MOSTAFA

but i need small notification not alarm

the purpose of an alarmmanager is to send a notification at a given time in the future without displaying a persistent notification

read again my previous answer and provide some answers...

@Taifun

which time picker value did you try?
what is the timer interval you got displayed in Label3?
for debugging use logcat

just for 1 time picker

It is just a Screen1 event issue

I am experiencing what seems like a similar event failure in the service process with the PhoneCall component's PhoneCallStarted and PhonecallEnded events.

To illustrate this, I modified the ItooMusic app to show that while the user interface receives these events, the Itoo service does not.

I am using Itoo 4.4.2 but have explicitly registered both events in the original manner. (I also tried it using the added implicit feature with a procedure properly named.)

The following screen shows starting the player. Then a call is made to the phone and rejected. Finally, the player is stopped.

The blocks:

The aia:
ItooMusic_orig_PhoneCall.aia (4.2 MB)

So far I have only tested this on Android 8. When the app starts for the first time (after being freshly installed) it asks for permission to make and manage phone calls , whereupon I select "Allow".

Have I misunderstood or misused something?

Kind regards,
Randal

[Kumaraswamy]

Will get back to this... Soon

[Randal_Andress]

Thank you very much for the reply. I realize you are "out of pocket" presently... I hope you are having an enjoyable or productive time (whichever you have intended.)

Look forward to hearing from you when you have time.

Kind regards,

I'm getting this error after 40min - 1h with the app open:

08-08 13:12:10.294  8504  8504 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resume activity {appinventor.ai_lipscellplay.imobmapa_motorista_nat_logs/appinventor.ai_lipscellplay.imobmapa_motorista_nat_logs.Screen1}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Too many receivers, total of 1000, registered for pid: 8504, callerPackage: appinventor.ai_lipscellplay.imobmapa_motorista_nat_logs

It happens when I reopen the minimized app after several times, probably when onResume is called:

I was careful not to restart the process:

I'm using this latest update of the extension:
Extension Version: Itoo Sky 4.4.2

any idea what it could be?

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Too many receivers, total of 1000

Please provide a few more relevant blocks...
What exactly are you doing in the background?

Remember, this is the same issue you mentioned here [PAID] 📍 Location Service Extension - #166 by el_barto

Taifun

[el_barto]

The application essentially monitors the status of a web request in the background. The process is called every 10 seconds.
It also sends the location in the background using its extension.

Sending location:

[Taifun]

Some observations

• in your main procedure run you forgot an evaluate but ignore result Web2
• how does the event handler webgot look like?
• in the timer event handler the 2 evaluate but ignore result blocks are obsolete
• in your OnLocationChanged event handler the evaluate but ignore result block is obsolete
• It might help to add more Notifier.LogInfo blocks into your background event handlers
• it would be great to get an error log including more information what previously happened including itoo and Notifier debug statements

[sidrobo]

Is it possible to detect an hot word using itoo. Ex
When I say ok google google gemini. automatically opens

[Kumaraswamy]

That would require continually using the microphone, I'm not sure how Google does this, a difficult one.

@Randal_Andress

I am experiencing what seems like a similar event failure in the service process with the PhoneCall component's PhoneCallStarted and PhonecallEnded events.

The first problem is that the Phone Call component is not being fully initialized (like those Firebase and CloudDB components), therefore it isn't able to receive phone call events. I manually initialized it using odd methods, and there seems to be another problem. I will look into potential fixes for the next Itoo update.

Thank for you for the report!

[Gergo_Toth]

Hi I get this erro message have any clue why?

[Kumaraswamy]

Hey, from what screen are you calling Itoo? Adding Itoo to Screen1 should solve this error.

[Randal_Andress]

@Kumaraswamy

Thank for you for the report!

You are quite welcome!

Kind regards,
Randal

FYI, the problem I am needing to solve involves an Itoo process with a Player that is sourced to a live stream of an event (eg., a sports event). By manually (using UI buttons) pausing and restarting the Player it is adjusted to be synchronized with a live video stream of the same event.

But then if a phone call is started (eg., received), the Player is automatically paused ... and then resumed when the call ends, thus adding delay to the audio stream (the length of the call) and putting it out of sync with the video.

One way to solve this is to detect the call start and then on call end to restart the Player with the already-calculated delay...thus maintaining sync with the video.

[Gergo_Toth]

Hi thanks for your answer, now my app dont crash out but I still have a problem with my code. Can you help me? (The code is on a second screen)
