Re: [android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android
The code below replaces the activity's content view (the root of view hierarchy) with a new LinearLayout. If you want to keep your existing layout around, do this: 1 - declare a LinearLayout placeholder in your layout xml file, give it an ID. 2 - instead of creating a new LinearLayout, get it by calling findViewById. 3 - don't call setContentView -- Kostya 28.07.2010 8:13, ethan пишет: This is the code that i used : LinearLayout mLinearLayout; mLinearLayout = new LinearLayout(this); ImageView i = new ImageView(this); i.setImageResource(R.drawable.cow_icon); i.setAdjustViewBounds(true); // set the ImageView bounds to match the Drawable's dimensions i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT)); //Add the ImageView to the layout and set the layout as the content view mLinearLayout.addView(i); setContentView(mLinearLayout); With this code, i can see the image getting didplayed but it goes on a different layout.

[android-beginners] need help validating if application works on specific devices
Hi, I've created and published a widget called in the market by the name Frequent Contacts Widget, sources can be found at http://code.google.com/p/frequentcontacts/ . Mu problem is that it works on my N1, and on the emulator, but some users complain that is doesn't work on their HTC incredible, HTC desire, and motor droid. I've opened bugs on these issues, but since I don't have these devices It is very hard to solve. If anyone is interested in seeing a very small application that sends SMS, makes calls and has a not trivial widget you are invited to look at the code, and hopefully you can find what is wrong with these specific devices. I'm not even sure there is a problem with the devices in general, since I don't know if it works on them at all. So much for write once, run anywhere Thanks, Oren -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group. NEW!

[android-beginners] Media Recorder Error codes
Hi everybody, I'd like to know the meaning of error's code in
MediaRecorder. Sometimes the application launch a 802 or 803 number
error, I did not see the meaning of this number in the API of this
class. Only this codes are included on API:
public static final int MEDIA_RECORDER_INFO_UNKNOWN = 1;
public static final int MEDIA_RECORDER_INFO_MAX_DURATION_REACHED =
800;
public static final int MEDIA_RECORDER_INFO_MAX_FILESIZE_REACHED =
801;
What's the meaning of a 802 or 803 error? This codes were caught in
onInfo method:
public void onInfo(MediaRecorder mr, int what, int extra) {};

Carlos Maciel.

[android-beginners] My column '_id' does not exist?
I'm having trouble with something that works in the Notepad example.
Here's the code from the NotepadCodeLab/Notepadv1Solution:
String[] from = new String[] { NotesDbAdapter.KEY_TITLE };
int[] to = new int[] { R.id.text1 };
SimpleCursorAdapter notes = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,
R.layout.notes_row, c, from, to);
This code seems to work fine. But just to be clear, I ran the adb
utility and run sqlite3 I inspected the schema as follows:
sqlite .schema
CREATE TABLE android_metadata (locale TEXT);
CREATE TABLE notes (_id integer primary key autoincrement, title text
not null, body text not null);
All seems good to me.
-
Now on to My App, which as far as I can see is basically the same with
a few minor changes. I've simplified and simplified my code, but the
problem persists.
String[] from = new String[] { x };
int[] to = new int[] { R.id.x };
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = null;
try
{
adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.circle_row,
cursor, from, to);
}
catch (RuntimeException e)
{
Log.e(Circle, e.toString(), e);
}
When I run my app, I get a RuntimeException and the following prints
in LogCat from my Log.e() statement:
LogCat Message:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: column '_id' does not exist
So, back to sqlite3 to see what's different about my schema:
sqlite .schema
CREATE TABLE android_metadata (locale TEXT);
CREATE TABLE circles (_id integer primary key autoincrement, sequence
integer, radius real, x real, y real);
I don't see how I'm missing the '_id'.
Can anyone point out what I've done wrong?
One thing that's different between my app and the Notepad example is
that I started by creating my application from scratch using the
Eclipse wizard while the sample app comes already put together. Is
there some sort of environmental change I need to make for a new app
to use a sqlite database?
Hopefully this is easy to spot by someone that's not a newbie like
me. Thanks.
Mitch

[android-beginners] Problems using AlertDialog in a onReceive() method
Hello Everyone,
I new to the SDK and have intermediate Java skills and I am having an issue
with adding an AlertDialog to a Receiver I have created. The application is
a basic alarm clock and I am using the following code as the receiving
class. I want to use an AlertDialog instead of Toast so that I can have a
snooze and an off button. It seems to be creating the AlertBox fine but when
I try to show it the program blows up. Below is the code I am trying to use,
any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Brad
public class RepeatingAlarm extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
try {
// Do something when alarm goes off
AlertDialog.Builder alertbox = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
alertbox.setMessage(Its time to get up);
// add a neutral button to the alert box and assign a click listener
alertbox.setNeutralButton(Ok,
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
// click listener on the alert box
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
// the button was clicked do something
}
});
alertbox.show();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(AlarmClock.java, ERROR: , e);
}
MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.duck);
mp.start();
}
}

Re: [android-beginners] Problems using AlertDialog in a onReceive() method
Thanks for the quick reply Mark. I am unsure what you mean by using a
dialog-themed Activity and startActivity(). I have added a Alarm in my mainclass
// Schedule the alarm!
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
if (isOn) {
// Set alarm
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,
pickedDateAndTime.getTimeInMillis(), 6, sender);
} else {
// Cancel alarm
am.cancel(sender);
Toast.makeText(AlarmClock.this, Alarm cancelled,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
Then in my Manifest I added my Reciever Class in like this
receiver android:name=RepeatingAlarm/receiver
Then I have the Receiver Code below. I am unsure how to go about adding a
dialog-themed Activity and startActivity. Would I create a whole new
Activity class that creates the AlertDialog. Then in my receiver class call
the startActivity()?
Once again thanks!
--Brad

No, you would create a whole new Activity class that displays what you want to display. If you want it to look like an AlertDialog, add the following attribute to your activity element in the manifest: android:theme=@android:style/Theme.Dialog http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/themes.html#ApplyATheme Then in my receiver class call the startActivity()?

Re: [android-beginners] Google Image on Google map
2010/7/28 NBS and...@gmail.com: The problem is it shows as blank space. Instead of drawing anything. Please have a look to the attached Image file. Android is having difficulty loading that tile for some reason. It should not be a problem in your code. With luck, the map server will respond properly for that tile sometime in the future. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 2.9 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] ContentProvider failing on insert
Hello, what i cam trying to do is this:
1. Check for db on startup (no problem)
2. If no db, create one (no problem)
3. input some data into the db (problem)
4. save the db (not there yet)
The exception is being thrown when i call cp.insert
I have stepped through the code line by line and the line that throws
the exception, every time, is:
SQLiteDatabase db = mOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase();
in the insert override.
I'm not sure why this is throwing an exception, seems like a pretty
normal call to me.
