title: Intent to Hidden Application on Android
body: <p>I have two application. I want to intent to the second one from the first one. But the second application must be launched from first one. So i have to hide the second one's icon.</p>
  
  <p>When i delete the category tag from the second one's manifest.xml, icon is disappearing. But this time i can't launch the second app from the first app with intent.</p>
  
  <p>This is how i tried to intent:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Intent openvideo = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("air.deneme");
  startActivity(openvideo);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can i handle it?</p>
  
  <p>Both of the applications are view based, they aren't background applications.</p>
