Description

*Issue:* When I use the deep link for my project and try to access the Ti.Android.currentActivity.getIntent().getData() it always returns null for Ti SDK 6.2.0 and above but If I downgrade the SDK to 6.1.2 then it works fine. It cannot read data from incoming intents. *Steps to Reproduce* 1. Create a new alloy App and use the following test code 2. Install the app on any android device. 2. Goto the browser and browse to https://uktvplay.uktv.co.uk site. 3. Click on any episodes 4. It will open up the app but getData() is always null but it should return a URL *Test code:* - https://gist.github.com/MotiurRahman/ca8cd6c8b2745c870836602dfb6875fe *Expected Result:* It should return the URL when the App is opened from the deep link. Thanks!

[~mrahman] Try this:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({ backgroundColor: 'gray' });
   
   Ti.Android.currentActivity.addEventListener('newintent', function (e) {
       var data = e.intent.getData();
   
       alert(data: ${data});
   });
   
   win.open();

Everything looks great, but they should be using the newintent event.
