Thanks for replying. I need to know if the phone is at "home screen" or "idle screen" instead of in phonebook or other apps. I may choose to do something in the background that will not interfere with the apps running.
Is there a way I can obtain top Activity's name or id. I assume "home screen" is a Home activity.
