question

We have an activity that we are trying to trigger as a customer facing activity but its not working.

Here's the code in our activity that calls the customer facing activity:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    remoteDeviceConnector = new RemoteDeviceConnector(this, CloverCount.getAccount(this));
}

@Override
    public void onPause()
    {
        //super.onPause();
        //finish();

        super.onPause();
        executor.execute(()->{
            remoteDeviceConnector.sendMessageToActivity(new MessageToActivity(CUSTOM_ACTIVITY_NAME, "FINISH"));
            remoteDeviceConnector.disconnect();
        });
    }

public void onResume()
    {
        super.onResume();
        final String payload = "{\"msg\"=\"Initial...\"}"; // if you need an inital payload
        final CustomActivityRequest car = new CustomActivityRequest(CUSTOM_ACTIVITY_NAME, payload);
        executor.execute(()->{
            remoteDeviceConnector.resetDevice(new ResetDeviceRequest());
            remoteDeviceConnector.startCustomActivity(car, new CustomActivityListener(){
                @Override public void onMessageFromActivity(MessageFromActivity message) {
                    // handle message from the CustomActivity
                }

                @Override public void onCustomActivityResult(CustomActivityResponse response) {
                    // handle the result of the CustomActivity
                }
            });
        });
    }

and here's the manifest:

<activity android:name=".SaleDialogActivityCF" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.yourdomain.ACTIVITY_NAME"/>
                <category android:name="com.clover.cfp.ACTIVITY"/>
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

and lastly the activity that's called:

private static final String CUSTOM_ACTIVITY_NAME = ".SaleDialogActivityCF";
