Android Question Any restrictions on starting Activities and callsubdelayed plus httputils?

[KMatle]

I have a new app using Activities/Services SignIn/Messaging via Firebase, HttpUtils, Google Maps and I'm wondering if there are any restrictions or "dont's" starting Activities, Jobs, Services, etc.

I know that this is very general. So far I don't have any problems and all is working like a charm but I wonder if there are some things to care for (like do not start a httputil's Job when you called a sub via "callsubdelayed" or wait for "Job.Release".

Of course I know that there's a message Queue and it all is handled well but...

I recommend you to use a service to handle all the http requests. Otherwise the CallSubDelayed that is inside HttpJob can start the target activity even if it is not current at the top of the stack.

Just had this situation Will move all the requests to a service (which then can run in the background).
