Hi,
Is it possible to make your application appear as an alternative menu
option in Maps Application(system application)? My application can
launch normally from the main menu. I tried adding this intent-filter:
| XML: | <intent-filter label="Add">
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.ALTERNATIVE"/>
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.SELECTED_ALTERNATIVE" />
<data android:scheme="geo" /> |
. I've tried alternative MIME types, like "<data
android:scheme="http"
android:host="maps.google.com"
android:path="" />
","<data
android:scheme="http"
android:host="maps.google.com"
android:path="/maps" />
","<data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/postal-address" />
", but it doesn't seem to work.
I do have permissions to use WRITE_MY_MAPS, READ_MY_MAPS........
Not implemented on system apps?
Thanks, |
