I changed the initial page in my app to be the "login" activity but now I get the app name in my mobile called "login"
I checked @string/app_name it show "MyApp" yet the app name still "login" in my mobile
is there anyway to change the app name to "MyApp" without changing the login activity title?
here is my AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.asmgx.myapp.app" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<application
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.PubVar"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
android:debuggable="false">
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.add_msg"
android:label="@string/title_activity_add_msg" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.ItemDetail"
android:label="@string/title_activity_item_detail" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.ListFilter"
android:label="@string/title_activity_list_filter" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.login"
android:label="@string/title_activity_login" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.test1"
android:label="@string/title_activity_test1" >
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>

If your Launcher Activity
does not have a label in its intent-filter
attribute, its label
value will be inherited from the parent component (either Activity
or Application
).
So you just have to add a label on your intent-filter, like this:
<activity
android:name="com.asmgx.myapp.app.login"
android:label="@string/title_activity_login" >
<intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name">
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
This will apply your App name the @string/app_name
value and give the Activity
title the @string/title_activity_login
value.
See the accepted answer from this post for more info.
