Hi,
I use the above code of NJDude (thanks a lot to him) to open Settings page, and this works perfect on many devices ( android 2.2, 4.1.2, 4.2.1 ), but on one device (android 4.2.2 ), when I try to run that part of code, I obtain this error:

What can I do to fix this problem?
Might be that the "component" name is changed on more recent android OS ???
Thanks a Lot to everyone can help me.
Best Regards.

That means that device has a slightly different version of Android Settings (which is rare), what device is this?.
To fix it you will have to capture that error.

The device is a SAMSUNG GT-I9105P.

Do you mean to use "Try... Catch"?

But if I capture the error, how can I set the correct name of the component?

Thanks.

Hi,
NJDude's method worked for me:

B4X:

i.SetComponent("com.android.settings/.Settings")

But I need to open the STATUS page, and can't seem to get the right text. Last tried:

B4X:

i.SetComponent("com.android.settings/.Settings.deviceinfo.status")

anyone know?
