Hi,
The following code "INSTALL_SHORTCUT" & "UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT" works for
Android 2.3.3 (API 10) to Android 3.3 (API 13), but does not work any
more with Android 4.0 (API 14) or above.
The Toast message says it is removed, but actually it still exist and
the new one just place on top of the existing one. This creates
multiple shortcuts on top of each other.
Does anyone see the same issue I am seeing or there's other fix for
this with Android 4.0?
Thanks in advance for your help.

private void deleteShortCut(Context context) {
Intent shortcutIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
shortcutIntent.setClassName("com.example.androidapp",
"SampleIntent");
shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
shortcutIntent.putExtra("someParameter", "HelloWorld");
Intent removeIntent = new Intent();
removeIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_INTENT,
shortcutIntent);
removeIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_NAME, "Shortcut
Name");
removeIntent.putExtra("duplicate", false);
removeIntent.setAction("com.android.launcher.action.UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT");
context.sendBroadcast(removeIntent);
}
