OnPause and OnStop() called immediately after starting activity

Question

I have an activity that needs to turn screen on(if offed) when it is started. So in onCreate, I have:

this.getWindow().setFlags(
            WindowManager.La         


        

Answer 1

The workaround by Manish Mulimani worked for me, except I first check for the window focus and then call through to the super.onPause():

public void onPause() {
    mFocusDuringOnPause = hasWindowFocus();    
    super.onPause();
}

public void onStop() {
    super.onStop();
    if (mFocusDuringOnPause) {
        // normal scenario
    } else {
        // activity was started when screen was off or screen was on with keyguard displayed
    }
}
