Problem with Pick intent and track list

Question

Hi,

I'm very new to Android development and am trying to do something fairly simple, select from a picklist of tracks.

I have some code that in theory works, and this is as follows;

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.dir/track");
this.startActivity(intent);

This works perfectly on the emulator, however when running on my Galaxy S, I get the following exception.

android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.PICK typ=vnd.android.cursor.dir/track }

I'm not really sure, nor can I seem to find how to correct the issue.

I apologise in advance if this is naivity on my part, but I'm just a bit puzzled that the code works on the emulator but not on the phone. Any advice or info would be gratefully received.

Many thanks in advance,

Neil.

Hi

As far as I know the particular exception occurs when you don't have any application on your device to handle the concerned intent type.
