I want use system browser for Twitter/Foursquare OAuth authorization. I think that this is safer then open browser in Webview directly in my app. System browser also can remember user password and he can't enter it again and again.
My idea is open the browser via standard intent Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(authUrl)); browserIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY); startActivity(browserIntent); And via call back URL myApp://twitter call back my app activity. Better will be call some special URL which Android will handle like close browser or goto back to the application which opened it. But big problem is that this work only if browser was not running before. If browser is running already it keep in history and user after OAuth authorization stay in the browser instead of my app. I think that this is caused because browser is running in different task and FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY works only for activities in one task. But how to solve it. I think that this is very common problem. Is only way to use internal Webview? :-( Similar question is here but without real solution: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5326538/how-can-i-do-that-in-android-activity-webbrowser-acrivity-but-press-back/5598405#5598405 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
