Android以编程方式隐藏应用程序图标

Question

I have been trying to hide my app's icon from the app drawer and open it from dialler. The dialler part works perfertly, but i am having issues with hiding it. My problem is, if i hide my activity, it's get destroyed and i can no longer access it from my dialler. I have tried creating a duplicate activity as suggested here , but if i do that then my initial problem of hiding the icon is not solved.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

I was doing it wrong. Just set the MainActivity as the launcher and set a duplicate activity in the dialler.

Answer 2

Please use this.

PackageManager pkg=this.getPackageManager(); pkg.setComponentEnabledSetting(new ComponentName(this,SplashActivity.class),PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_DISABLED, PackageManager.DONT_KILL_APP);
