Hi,

Is it possible to make your application appear as an alternative menu option in Maps Application(system application)? My application can launch normally from the main menu. I tried adding this intent-filter:

<intent-filter label="Add"> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.ALTERNATIVE"/>

<category android:name="android.intent.category.SELECTED_ALTERNATIVE" /> <data android:scheme="geo" />

. I've tried alternative MIME types, like "<data android:scheme="http" android:host="maps.google.com" android:path="" /> ","<data android:scheme="http" android:host="maps.google.com" android:path="/maps" /> ","<data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/postal-address" /> ", but it doesn't seem to work.

I do have permissions to use WRITE_MY_MAPS, READ_MY_MAPS........

Thanks,
