The force close is quite commonly caused by a null pointer ecxeption... The logcat info should be able to tell you where (and what) the problem is.

When the button is pressed the activity creates an Intent of itself and loads it into the AlarmManager 3 seconds in the future before finishing. So activity opens, user pushes button, activity closes, 3 seconds later activity opens, repeat. Problem is instead of opening an activity 3 seconds later I get an error: "The application [myappname] has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Here's the code for the button: thanksButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View view) { setResult(RESULT_OK); Intent intent = new Intent(myappname.this, myappnameBroadcastReceiver.class); PendingIntent appIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast (myappname.this, 0, intent, 0); Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(); calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis()); calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, 3); AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)getSystemService (ALARM_SERVICE); am.set(AlarmManager.RTC, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), appIntent); finish(); } }); -------------------------------------------- Here's the broadcast receiver: package com.myappname; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; public class myappnameBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { context.startActivity(new Intent(context, myappname.class)); } } --------------------------------------------- and here's the lines from the manifest.xml <receiver android:name=".myappnameBroadcastReceiver" android:process=":remote"> </receiver> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
