Tapping a Notification from OneSignal does not open a result activity!!!! - Android - notifications

Question

Now I know there are lot of questions on this, but I have faced no luck at all and thought to ask a question here.
I have an application which just runs a splashscreen followed by a MainActivity(Which is just a WebView)
Now I integrated this with OneSignal for receiving push notifications.
Everything works good, I mean I get a notification when sent through the onesignal website to my phone - but the thing I am facing is, tapping the notification does not get my ResultActivity(Just a activity displaying a Toast of message).
My code snippets looks as below:
splashscreen.java:
public class splashscreen extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash);
Thread splashThread = new Thread() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
int waited = 0;
while (waited < 5000) {
sleep(100);
waited += 100;
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// do nothing
} finally {
finish();
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setClassName("com.google",
"com.google.Main");
startActivity(i);
}
}
};
splashThread.start();
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
OneSignal.onPaused();
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
OneSignal.onResumed();
}
}
Main.java:
#SuppressLint("SetJavaScriptEnabled") public class Main extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
WebView web;
private static Activity currentActivity;
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, ResultActivity.class);
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
currentActivity = this;
web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.my_webview);
web.setWebViewClient(new myWebClient());
web.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
web.loadUrl("http://google.com");
OneSignal.init(this, "xxxxxxx", "xxx-xxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx", new ExampleNotificationOpenedHandler());
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu){
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle item selection
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.exit:
finish();
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
public class myWebClient extends WebViewClient
{
#Override
public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
}
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
String url2="http://google.com";
// all links with in ur site will be open inside the webview
//links that start with your domain example(http://www.example.com/)
if (url != null && url.startsWith(url2)){
return false;
}
// all links that points outside the site will be open in a normal android browser
else {
view.getContext().startActivity(
new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url)));
return true;
}
}
}
// To handle "Back" key press event for WebView to go back to previous screen.
#Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && web.canGoBack()) {
web.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
OneSignal.onPaused();
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
OneSignal.onResumed();
}
// NotificationOpenedHandler is implemented in its own class instead of adding implements to MainActivity so we don't hold on to a reference of our first activity if it gets recreated.
private class ExampleNotificationOpenedHandler implements NotificationOpenedHandler {
/**

I have tried all these answers but none worked:
Notification Not open Acivity onCLick
Android Status Bar Notifications - Opening the correct activity when selecting a notification
Android :Tap on Push Notification does not open Application
Android click on notification does not open the attached Activity
It is painfull to modify one line and test it on device! Since onesignal allows only testing in device. Please help or atleast guide me how to debug.
Device on which the apk was tested : Samsung Galaxy S4 running Lolipop.

Answer 1

Take a look at this link:
https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/android-customizations#section-background-data-and-notification-overriding
(Search : "Changing the open action of a notification" in the page to go to the exact paragraph).
And this is an example:
http://androidbash.com/android-push-notification-service-using-onesignal/
I don't have time to read your code carefully, but seems like it has some problems:
You initialize OneSignal in the wrong place.
"Make sure you are initializing OneSignal with
setNotificationOpenedHandler in the onCreate method in your
Application class. You will need to call startActivity from this callback" (OneSignal's document).
You don't need any other receivers in AndroidManifest to catch intent and open your target activity, OneSignal.NotificationOpenedHandler already handle this. But don't forget this line to prevent OneSignal open your launcher activity:
<application ...>
<meta-data android:name="com.onesignal.NotificationOpened.DEFAULT" android:value="DISABLE" />
</application>
I use this solution in my app and it works fine. Because it's the way it is.

Answer 2

OneSignal.init must be called from your launcher Activity, you will need to move it to your splashscreen Activity. This will get your ExampleNotificationOpenedHandler to fire when you open a OneSignal notification.
Make sure to also copy the calls to OneSignal.onPaused(); and OneSignal.onResumed(); into your splashscreen Activity. These need to be called in every Activity in the onPuase() and onResume() methods.
