Thanks a lot. It helps much!
Adding an activity in Androidmanifest.xml like the following can solve
the problem?
Then does it mean that starting this widget incurs new InfoActivity
run at an initial start?
......
<activity
android:name=".InfoActivity"
android:label="@string/title_info">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
......
Regards,
Jaeyun
