Change Wallpaper intent Application crashes in Nook Color:

Question

I need to develop a Wallpaper application for Nook Color. I have installed the Nook color addon after that when i use this code in my app and it gets crashed every time. The below API Intent to allow any application to open the Wallpaper Settings Manager UI in Nook Color device

Intent i = new Intent();
i.setAction( "com.bn.nook.CHANGE_WALLPAPER" );
startActivity( i );

Error: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=com.bn.nook.CHANGE_WALLPAPER }

Please help, Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

The code you have posted is a direct copy paste from (i assume) the official Nook Developer page here.

The code isn't inherently wrong, the Action your specifying simply doesn't seem to exist - you need to find the correct Action name from the Developers/Nook API.

Answer 2

This intent is only going to be available on Nook device.

Using this on any other device or emulator that isn't specifically designed to be the nook isn't going to work.

It would be like trying to open Internet Explorer on a machine which doesn't have Internet Explorer installed.
