This is not an error. It tells you that two instances of the same activity were created. The first one was then destroyed. It usually happens when you open an activity from a notification.

Can it be due to CallSub or CallSubDelayed ?

I have added checking
if IsPaused (Main) = false then Call.......
and, seems, no killing now.... need to check longer.

No, no luck. I even cannot open well other activities - after some pause - the killing, and Main activity is restarted.

App is used MapView (OSR) lib on the Main. The service woring with a server updates the SQLite db and call

B4X:

    If IsPaused(Main) = False Then
        CallSubDelayed(Main, "Activity_Resume")
    End If

Where markers of the map are being updated.

Note that the code you posted will cause Activity_Resume to run twice. You should use StartActivity if you just want to show the activity.

If you can reproduce the issue in a small project then please upload it.

Why twice ?
I just need to re-draw the Activity (by Activity_Resume) from a service when it's on the display. Not twice :-(

CallSubDelayed will first start the activity and then call the target sub.

So, correct will be

B4X:

    If IsPaused(Main) = False Then
        CallSub(Main, "Activity_Resume")
    End If

My mistake. I didn't read the condition correctly. If the activity is not paused then it will only execute once. Both CallSub and CallSubDelayed will work here.
