Intent Handling - handleOnActivityResult is never called or crashes

[uzumakinaruto123]

Trying to call a foreign activity and get result from it, but following error is thrown

E/JavaBinder(32387): !!! FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION !!!

java.lang.RuntimeException: android.os.TransactionTooLargeException: data parcel size 592196 bytes
   at  

Starting Activity and reading result as follows:

    @PluginMethod()
    public void startActivitiyForResultCustom(final PluginCall call){

        String b64Image = call.getString("foo");
        
        saveCall(call);

        Intent intent = new Intent();
        intent.putExtra("foo", foo);

        intent.setClassName("com.xyz.abc", "com.xyz.abc.Test");
        startActivityForResult(call, intent, 333);
    }

    @Override
    protected void handleOnActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.handleOnActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);


        PluginCall savedCall = getSavedCall();

        if (savedCall == null) {
            return;
        }

        if (requestCode == 333) {
            PluginResult result = new PluginResult();
           result.put("foo", data.getStringExtra("foo"));
            savedCall.successCallback(result);
        }

    }

PS:- Foreign activity response is Stringified JSON with 1 or 2 keys and not image/bitmap data.

Foreign activity returns data as follows:

                Bundle extras = new Bundle();
                extras.putString("foo", "json string");
                Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
                resultIntent.putExtras(extras);
                finish();

Following works:

Starting activity with-
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, 333);

But this will return response in MainActivity

Can you provide a sample app or the plugin you are using?

[uzumakinaruto123]

Not the one I am working on! It's not a plugin! But, I will try reproducing this and provide a sample app.

As I said I am not doing much in App B, just doing the following which works if I try to get result in onActivityResult of MainActivity in Capacitor App.

                Bundle extras = new Bundle();
                extras.putString("foo", "{  \"key1\": \"value1\",  \"key2\": \"value2\",  \"key3\": \"value3\"}");
                Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
                resultIntent.putExtras(extras);
                finish();

@jcesarmobile

The error occurs If I do saveCall(call) in PluginMethod

If call is not saved, following is logged in log cat

Unable to find a Capacitor plugin to handle requestCode, trying Cordova plugins 333

[jcesarmobile]

If it’s not a plugin but manual changes on Capacitor classes you should handle your request code before capacitor tries to handle it

[uzumakinaruto123]

If it’s not a plugin but manual changes on Capacitor classes you should handle your request code before capacitor tries to handle it

I am not sure how and where to do that! Any suggestion? or any way I can set Plugin callback from MainActivity? btw I am not changing any capacitor classes.

Hi.
could You solve the problem?
I have the same problem and can,t get data back from native to Ionic

[uzumakinaruto123]

@alireza23

For now, I created a Cordova Plugin for the same. But, it is specific to my project. So you will need to fork and update if you plan to use it.

[jcesarmobile]

Closing as it's still not clear to me what were you trying and you figured out how to do it in a different way.

Still getting "Unable to find a Capacitor plugin to handle requestCode, trying Cordova plugins 333" when using startActivityForResult. This issue should be reopened.

Create a new issue with more information. It was closed because there was no enough information to investigate
