Android Question [Solved] Error when I change the PackageName in StickerPack to Whatsapp Library

[asales]

I'm testing the Sticker4W from @DonManfred (thanks!), but If I change the packagename "de.donmanfred.sticker" to another, I get an error.
In the first time I don't see no logs, but compile again, I get this error:

main_activity_create (java line: 369)
java.lang.IllegalStateException: could not fetch from content provider, de.donmanfred.sticker.stickercontentprovider

The line in Activity_Create is correct:

prov.Initialize("Provider",Application.PackageName&"."&"stickercontentprovider")

But I don't know how to fix it.

Thanks in advance for any tip.

 

[DonManfred]

How is you manifest looking (the manifest entry for this)?
I got told from another user that it does work perfectly for him in release mode. He was asking about debug mode.
Does it work for you using Release mode?

 

[asales]

Yes. I use the release mode (obfuscated) in real device.

I am using your example.
The only change I made is in the package name:
"de.donmanfred.sticker2"

 

[asales]

I checked the logs from your example and I get "null" in the log of this line:

    prov.Initialize("Provider",Application.PackageName&"."&"stickercontentprovider")
Log("prov.Authority)

i m changed the app packagename and on this line too

in.putExtra("sticker_pack_authority", "douglas.app.teste.stickercontentprovider")

 

[DonManfred]

really, when i change the package name it give crash

i think i see the problem though it just crashes here without any log (must look into unfiltered log).
Looks like it is not possible to change this setting at runtime. Or i´m doing something wrong.

I´m investigating.

 

[DonManfred]

but If I change the packagename "de.donmanfred.sticker" to another, I get an error.
