Hi Kavitha, I think it's not the place that is wrong but maybe how you handle the life of your activity.
I'm not sure why you prefer to have the splash screen showing every time instead of skipping directly inside the app which sounds better for the user(no waiting time), but here is what you can do : If you have only one activity, then call finish(); in the OnStop() of your activity : This will tell Android that this activity has ended completely. And on the next run causes Android to restart it from scratch. This is really not a good advice, but it should work. Beside you should read at least the first chapters of this document that explains the life time and the order in which onstart, onrestart, onresume, onpause, ... are called : http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/app/Activity.html Good luck Yahel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
