overridePendingTransition doesn't work

android, animation, transition

Solution

The problem was that the device, at least in the case of Samsung Galaxy, has to have animations enabled for this to work. This can be done in the settings menu.

Problem

Have found already some people asking the same, but the solutions didn't work for me. I see no animation. Calling it this way: ``` Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyActivity.class); startActivity(intent); overridePendingTransition(R.anim.fadein, R.anim.fadeout); ``` fadein.xml and fadeout.xml are in the anim folder: fadein.xml: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" > <alpha android:duration="1000" android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator" android:toAlpha="1.0" /> </set> ``` fadeout.xml: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <alpha android:duration="1000" android:fromAlpha="1.0" android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator" android:toAlpha="0.0" /> </set> ``` Using min. API 7: manifest: ``` <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7"/> ``` API 7 is also in my project.properties file: ``` target=android-7 ``` What am I doing wrong? P.D. Removing the lines with the interpolator doesn't change anything. Already seen / tried: overridePendingTransition doesn't work overridePendingTransition does not work when FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT is used Fade in Activity from previous Activity in Android Fade in Activity from previous Activity in Android Activity transition in Android
