(Replying to a slightly old thread) The answer is here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#exported
In 1.0 the activity had an intent-filter, and was therefore exported (available to other components). In eclair it does not have an intent-filter, and is therefore *not* exported. See the difference between the 1.0 GalleryPicker activity declaration http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Camera.git;a=blob;f=AndroidManifest.xml;hb=release-1.0 and the 2.1: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Camera.git;a=blob;f=AndroidManifest.xml;hb=eclair-release On Jan 27, 4:18 pm, "Mark Murphy" <[email protected]> wrote: > > Understood.
