No Activity found to handle Intent : android.intent.action.VIEW

Question

This is my code to play the recorded audio 3gp file

 Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        Uri data = Uri.parse(path);
        intent.setDataAndType(data, "audio/mp3");
        startActivity(intent);

But while running it in my HTC device (Android 2.2 Froyo) shows an exception:

05-04 16:37:37.597: WARN/System.err(4065): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=/mnt/sdcard/mnt/sdcard/audio-android.3gp typ=audio/mp3 }

In Galaxy tablet it's working fine. How can I resolve this issue?

Answer 1

Url addresses must be preceded by http://

Uri uri = Uri.parse("www.google.com");
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);

throws an ActivityNotFoundException. If you prepend "http://", problem solved.

Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://www.google.com");
