Android Studio: 2 XML Files, but App is starting 2nd XML-file instead of 1st one

Question

I've made an app that allows a user to login, but everytime I try to run my app, it will automatically display Activity_main.xml (that is a page that if you have login successfully).

I want to run my app, but it must display the activity_main.xml (which is the login page) first instead of the activity_main.xml which is now the first page

Here is my code:

AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.mertino11.ourapplication">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

    <application
        android:name=".FireApp"
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true">

        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

        <activity
            android:name=".AccountActivity"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme" />
    </application>

    </manifest>

activity_account.xml (XML for user logged in succesfully)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/activity_account"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.example.mertino11.ourapplication.AccountActivity">

    <EditText
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPersonName"
        android:text="Account Page"

        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:textStyle="normal|bold"
        android:textAlignment="center" />
</RelativeLayout>

activity_main.xml (login page)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:baselineAligned="false">

    <EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
        android:ems="10"
        android:id="@+id/emailField"
        android:hint="Email"
        android:paddingTop="20dp" />

    <EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPassword"
        android:ems="10"
        android:id="@+id/passwordField"
        android:hint="Password"
        android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
        android:paddingTop="20dp" />

    <Button
        android:text="Login"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/loginBtn"
        android:paddingTop="20dp" />
</LinearLayout>

Java --> Class: AccountActivity (Page when the user logged in successfully)

package com.example.mertino11.ourapplication;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class AccountActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_account);
    }
}

Java --> Class: FireApp (Firebase settings I think)

package com.example.mertino11.ourapplication;

import android.app.Application;

import com.firebase.client.Firebase;

/**
 * Created by Mertino11 on 10-Dec-16.
 */

public class FireApp extends Application {

    @Override
    public void  onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();

        Firebase.setAndroidContext(this);
    }
}

The scenario of the app:

• Create account firebase Google (manually)
• Opens app --> Sees login page (where I am stuck at)
• Logs in with accountdetails of Firebase
• Goes to AccountActivity page

Note: I am a amateur/beginner with AndroidStudio.

Answer 1

I didn't get question correctly.anyways in your manifest.xml,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.mertino11.ourapplication">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<application
    android:name=".FireApp"
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true">

    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <activity
        android:name=".AccountActivity"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" />
</application>

</manifest>

intent-filter inside the MainActivity means that the MainActivity is the launcher Activity

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>

So if you want to launch the AccountActivity first then change to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.mertino11.ourapplication">
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<application
    android:name=".FireApp"
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true">

    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme"/>

    <activity
        android:name=".AccountActivity"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

</manifest>

Answer 2

1) you have already login with email and password that reason app going to account activity

2) you can prevent using

FirebaseAuth.getInstance().signOut();

3) more detail FireBase at the bottom

4) thank u

Answer 3

Button logout=(Button) findViewById(R.id.logout)
    logout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            FirebaseAuth.getInstance().signOut();
            startActivity(new Intent(AccountActivity.this,MainActivity.class));
            finish();
        }
    });

xml

 <Button
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:text="logout"
  android:id="@+id/logout"/>

in AccountActivity.xml
