Opening website in android

Do I need to set Internet permission for opening a website in Android?

In my activity I have some links that when user click on it, WebView will open and load a page from Internet.

My Question is, do I have to set permission in manifest file for accessing Internet? Because when I run the program, emulator says web page is not available.

Yes you will need to have the following permission added to the manifest to access and URL outside of the device:

Seems to be confirmed here as well:

android.permission.INTERNET is required, however: there is a way around this. If you just want to launch a web page in a separate browser app, you don’t need permission at all.

in your manifest if you want to use webviews in your application.

Yes, set android.permission.INTERNET in your android manifest file. Read some details about Webview here

You will need the following in your Android Manifest:

Stop Browser Automatically website opening in Android while unlocking

A couple of days back, I have downloaded an Android Apk file from the internet on my Oneplus 5 smartphone. But after installing it something bad happened to my phone. The Chrome browser of my Android phone starts opening spam website automatically; when I unlock my device. It was really annoying, I also used a couple of Antivirus software like Avast, Virus cleaner and more but none of them able to remove this adware from my phone. Then after an internet search, I came to know it is hidden app with no name which installed on my Android phone without my permission. Finally, got a very simple way to stop websites from opening automatically in the browser the in Android while unlocking it.

1. Go to your Android phone settings.
2. From the settings menu select the Apps option.
3. Find out an App installed on your phone with no name, I mean the app which is blank and only shows the size of the installed files. Usually, it resides at the bottom, so just scroll down to the bottom and you will find it. Please see the screenshot for reference.
4. Now tap on that blank installed app and select the option or button called Uninstall.
5. Confirmed the uninstallation by tapping on the OK button and it will stop the automatically opening of the spam websites in the Android browser when you unlock the device.

Sending an Intent to browser to open specific URL [duplicate]

I’m just wondering how to fire up an Intent to the phone’s browser to open an specific URL and display it.

Can someone please give me a hint?

To open a URL/website you do the following:

The short version

should work as well.

The shortest version.

In some cases URL may start with «www». In this case you will get an exception:

The URL must always start with «http://» or «https://» so I use this snipped of code:

Sending an Intent to Browser to open specific URL:

could be changed to a short code version .

or even more short!

Is there also a way to pass coords directly to google maps to display?

You can use the geo URI prefix:

From XML

In case if you have the web-address/URL displayed on your view and you want it to make it clikable and direct user to particular website You can use:

In same way you can use different attributes of autoLink(email, phone, map, all) to accomplish your task.

Use following snippet in your code

«Is there also a way to pass coords directly to google maps to display?»

I have found that if I pass a URL containing the coords to the browser, Android asks if I want the browser or the Maps app, as long as the user hasn’t chosen the browser as the default. See my answer here for more info on the formating of the URL.

I guess if you used an intent to launch the Maps App with the coords, that would work also.

I am designing an app, with several button for users to click on. Once button is clicked, user is directed to appropriate website. How do I accomplish this?

If you are talking about an RCP app, then what you need is the SWT link widget.

Here is the official link event handler snippet.

Update

Here is minimalist android application to connect to either superuser or stackoverflow with 2 buttons.

And here is the layout.

In your Java file write the following piece of code.

Here is a workable answer.

Manifest.xml

todolist.java

main.xml

or it can be done using,

Add this to your button’s click listener:

If you have a website url as a variable instead of hardcoded string then don’t forget to handle an ActivityNotFoundException and show error. Or you may receive invalid url and app will simply crash. (Pass random string instead of url variable and see for youself )
