Xamarin issue with navigating - black sceen

I've got a problem with dark screen after opening minimized app (Android).



It happens in the following scenario:



I tap on a notification, the InfoPage opens. I press back button and it navigates to the main page. I minimize the app, and open it again. After opening again, the screen is black, with the name "InfoActivity" at the top, on a white bar.



Below I present the part of code for MainActivity and InfoPage.



In the MainActivity class, there is a code for opening InfoPage from notification. In the InfoPage class, there is a code for back button.



public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsAppCompatActivity
{
Bundle bundle;

protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
...
}

protected override void OnNewIntent(Intent intent)
{
base.OnNewIntent(intent);
Intent = intent;
DisplayPage();
}

public void DisplayPage()
{
global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(this, bundle);
Xamarin.Forms.Application app = new App();
app.MainPage.Navigation.PushAsync(new InfoPage());
LoadApplication(app);

}
}


public class InfoPage : BasePage
{
public InfoPage()
{
...
}

private void onClickBackButton(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Navigation.PopAsync();
}

protected override bool OnBackButtonPressed()
{
Navigation.PopAsync();
return true;
}
}

[Activity(Label = "InfoActivity")]
public class InfoActivity : Activity
{
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
Intent i = new Intent(this, typeof(MainActivity));
i.AddFlags(ActivityFlags.ReorderToFront);
this.StartActivity(i);

base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
}

  • Your DisplayPage method is really confusing. Does your Activity.OnCreate still call Forms' Init Forms and LoadApplcation? Is this activity a singleTop? Depending upon what you are doing in OnCreate and how the launchMode for this activity is defined, I'm surprised that a black screen is the only thing happening, i.e. not crashing... 😕

I am going to assuming that your Activity is not defined as a "singleTop"



LaunchMode = LaunchMode.SingleTop


And thus you are trying to reinitialize the Form's application when OnNewIntent is called.



1) Set your Activity to be a singleTop:



[Activity(Label = "FormsXXXX", Icon = "@mipmap/icon", Theme = "@style/MainTheme", LaunchMode = LaunchMode.SingleTop, MainLauncher = true, ConfigurationChanges = ConfigChanges.ScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Orientation)]
public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsAppCompatActivity
{
...
}


2) Change your DisplayPage to only include the navigation PushAsync:



public void DisplayPage()
{
Xamarin.Forms.Application.Current.MainPage.Navigation.PushAsync(new InfoPage());
}

  • Thank you. I defined MainActivity as singleTop and I changed the DisplayPage method. However, the same situation with the black screen happens - notthing's changed. I added a piece of code of InfoActivity - I probably should make a change there.
