Missing a call to unregister HapticFeedbackBroadcastReceiver receiver that I never registered

Question

I get the following error

"Are you missing a call to unregister receiver"

when I hit the back button to exit my application. How do I identify which Receiver is causing the leak and eliminate the error? I am using the code "DownLoader" from Google to download an expansion file.

Answer 1

Solution 1.

If You have a ListView with a ItemClickListener You have to set the listener to null on overrive Method onPause.

listView.setOnItemClickListener(exampleListener);

Example: Declaration of your listener

private OnItemClickListener exampleListener = new OnItemClickListener() {}....

@Override
    public void onPause() {

        super.onPause();

        listView.setOnItemClickListener(null);

    }

@Override
    public void onResume() {

        super.onResume();
            if(listView != null){
                listView.setOnItemClickListener(exampleListener);
             }
    }

Solution 2 If You know what is your broadcastReceiver instance You have to unregister always un overrive method onPause.

@Override protected void onPause() {

    super.onPause();
    synchronized (this) {
        if(broadcastReceiverInstance != null){
            unregisterReceiver(broadcastReceiverInstance );
        }
    }

}

The second solution I know it does not work for you but I let it for reference.

I hope it helps You.
