So...what is a good public replacement for parent="android:WindowTitle" ?

[android-developers] Re: "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" when using jmDNS.jar
Doesn't that mean that the code is compiled but the jar not included in the apk => class not found error at runtime unless jmDNS is a part of Android.

[android-developers] Authenticator-Accounts gone after reboot!!! due to "Removing non-system package"
I am using a custom Authenticator (app1 named
"biz.wolschon.android.dropbox.authenticator")
and a custom SyncAdapter (separate app2)
and a client-application (named "biz.wolschon.android.dropbox.sendto")
very similar to the example at
http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SampleSyncAdapter/src/com/example/android/samplesync/authenticator/AuthenticatorActivity.html
Everything works fine until you shutdown and reboot your phone.
The Google-Accounts are still there but the custom accounts
are gone!!!
I am using Android 2.2 on a Nexus One.
What could possible be the reason for such a thing to happen?

[android-developers] SyncAdapter and android:contentAuthority
For a SyncAdapter I need to provide a syncadapter.xml like http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SampleSyncAdapter/res/xml/syncadapter.html in a Manifest like http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SampleSyncAdapter/AndroidManifest.html 1) What should I enter as "android:contentAuthority" if I am not syncing the anything that is provided by a content-provider?

[android-developers] Share AccountAuthenticator between multiple applications
I have 2 applications that both require the same account-type from the same, custom AccountAuthenticator . 1) How do I deploy the custom AccountAuthenticator? Separately or with both applications? Will it be shown once or twice in the account-manager if supplied by 2 apps? If supplied separately, how do I reference it as a requirement for the market? (App cannot be used without this AccountAuthenticator.) 2) If I make the AccountAuthenticator-project a library-project, Eclipse complains that the service+activity-classes of the entries for the AccountAuthenticator are not found on the classpath of the app-project. It also complains that the xml/auth.xml -resource supplied by the library-project is not found in the Manifest of the app-project. * I have to add all and -entries of the library to the app-project * The app-project does have the auth-library-project listed as a used library in eclipse. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] deploying AccountAuthenticator for multiple apps
How should I go about deploying the same AccountAuthenticator for multiple projects that use the same kind of account? Should each project include the AccountAuthenticator as a library-jar or should it be it's own apk? What happens if the same AccountAuthenticator is exported from multiple apks in the system?

[android-developers] Request different IME for TextEditField
Hello, Background: In Vespucci (editor for OpenStreetMap) I have input-fields for key+value. Many people use Swype but that one is broken with AutoCompleteTextFields as it only transmits finished words to the TextField and not the individual characters. Thus the list of autocompletion-results is never updated during typing and the dictionary learns lots of incomplete words as users press "enter" before they are actually finished typing. Question: Since I cannot fix Swype and my bug-report will not be adressed any time soon. Is it possible to force the usage of another keyboard (e.g. one the user selected in m app's preferences) for the text-fields in my app to restore user-experience?

[android-developers] How to implement your own LocationProvider
Hello, I would like to implement a new LocationProvider. In this case, one that uses OpenCellID.org. I figured the pattern wou be quite similar to providing an AccountAuthenticator but was stunned that I could not find any documentation on this. Looking at the source http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/frameworks/base/location/java/android/location/ all the relevant code seems to be in a service providing the ILocationManager.aidl -interface that I cannot navigate to or find using Goole Code Search. Is it supported to provide your own LocationProvider at all? If so, what do I have to do to acomplish this?
