Android: Image button as a hyperlink, phone call, map directions?

Question

I have a simple app that I'm putting together for my company. I have 4 buttons that I've created but can't seem to get them to link correctly. One button should open our mobile site, another button to call us, another button to map to us, and the final button linked to our "News" site. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

On your buttons, you should set OnClickListener, and to do some required actions you could see the example below:

1. To Open a Map with Certain Location

   mapButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
       @Override
       public void onClick(View v) {
           Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=" + your-location-geo-address));
           startActivity(i);
       }
   });
   

2. To call certain number

   callButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
       @Override
       public void onClick(View v) {
           Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL, Uri.parse("tel:" + telephone-number));
           startActivity(i);
       }
   });
   

3. To open a website

   linkButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
       @Override
       public void onClick(View v) {
           Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(website-address));
           startActivity(i);
       }
   });
   

Change "location-address", "telephone-number", and "website-address" with your own String value. I hope this helps.
