Question

Is it possible to send past command so that it pastes text into currently focused edit text. Scenario:

1. Background service listening for notification (done)

Answer 1

For most Android devices, above Honeycomb Android version 3.0 the below code will work

For copying text to Clipboard

ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE); 
        ClipData clip = android.content.ClipData
                    .newPlainText("copyingToClipboard", "your text here to be copied to clipboard");
    clipboard.setPrimaryClip(clip);

For Copying from Clipboard

ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
        if (clipboard.hasPrimaryClip() && (clipboard.getPrimaryClipDescription().hasMimeType(MIMETYPE_TEXT_PLAIN) || clipboard.getPrimaryClipDescription().hasMimeType(MIMETYPE_TEXT_HTML))) {
            ClipData.Item item = clipboard.getPrimaryClip().getItemAt(0);
            String clipboardtext = item.getText().toString();
            Toast.makeText(Context,clipboardtext,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }

The code will avoid null value exception in case the clipboard doesn't contain any data.
