[android-beginners] Re: how to update the firmware of the dev phone to 1.1?
So we can agree on that it should be Google who should always provide an official image per SDK version that is fully functional. Anything else is hacking, which is not necessarily bad, but people should not be surprised if they don't get what they want.

(What it is right now is a bleeding edge development branch, that is rarely updated from the internal google branches, plus the fixes needed to build without google's huge collection of closed-source apps and framework pieces.) On master wifi, etc works fine. It is just google apps that are missing. (For the interested, I host fastbootable-images athttp://andblogs.net/images/snapshots- I update them every day or two, as changes are pushed into the public tree.) For 1.1, your official options are sucks to be you. Your unofficial options are a little better - since google updated all their employees phones you can install the 'holiday' update.

The ADP1 is supposed to be updated by you, compiling the source on your own. There are many guides out there that can help you get there (or just to install a preconfigured build of 1.1). Nobody knows how the upgrade process will actually be when Google finally figure out how to perform it. But you may compile the source and install it - but some of the functionality and programs you may be using will be missing! Google has not released code for (as far as I remember): WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, GMail, Calendar and other things! You may extract binary versions out of your Android but that may not be compatible with the firmware version you are installing! Make sure to look through the documentation on source.android.com. One of the most important sources of information to me is the xda- developers forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=448 It is a good place for hacking but understand what you are doing before performing any of the steps or you may brick your phone! However if you're building for the actual handset, you need to include extra modules (GPS drivers etc.).

[android-beginners] Re: emulator can not be powered on
Ahh, this is a bit complex to explain, let's cut the details here: - make sdk will not do what you think. Building the SDK should be done on Linux or Darwin with something like make PRODUCT-sdk-sdk. - emulator will not do what you think either. Because you called lunch, the emulator will think by default that you want to run a system image, not a sdk one. - By the way, building the SDK is only directly supported on Linux and Darwin. For Windows, we have to generate a Linux installation tree, then copy Windows-specific binaries into it for a few select tools. Don't try this at home, seriously... On Linux, here's how I rebuild and immediately test the SDK: . build/envsetup.sh make PRODUCT-sdk-sdk cd out/host/linux-x86/bin/sdk/android-sdk_eng.digit_linux-x86/tools ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT= emulator -system ../platforms/android-1.5/images -data data.img Note that my username (digit) is part of the generated sdk directory, so YMMV.

[android-beginners] Re: Supported video formats
What profile and level is supported for H.264 video? It is basically meaningless to say you have or support H.264 if you do not specify the associated profiles and levels for video given the scope of the H.264 standard. The same is true for audio - which of the three AAC formats is supported - profile and level? Are these profiles and levels the same for all playback situations, or do you support only lower levels for streaming situations? As a quick background for those less familiar with modern standards for video and audio encoding: Profile is a specification of the complexity of the data stream (essentially describing the kind of techniques that may be used to compress the video, you will need more hardware or more complex codecs to decode higher profiles) while level indicates the parameters controlling the encoding/decoding - thing such as size of the video frame, etc. Level basically also indicates the maximum bit rate of the data. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] Context problem (or at least I think it is)
Hi!
I have a tabbed application that is displaying some content, but I
would like to check if the user is logged in to a system and if he is
not, i have to display a certain web page.
Now, the problem is that I have packed all the login code in a class
(lets call it login) and now I have to call it to run the check
method. It would be the best if I'd be able to check that before I
even load the tabs.
How (and where) am I supposed to run the login check so I can:
- access the data in R class (strings...)
- change the view (i have to use webview so I can display the login
webpage)
- access a db adapter
at the moment, I call the class inside a tab like this:
Login login = new Login();
if( login.check() == true )
{
setContentView(R.layout.tab_view);
}
now I know this is rong and naturally the whole application crashes.
Thanks for all the help! ;)

[android-beginners] Re: ADT Plugin Issue - Eclipse 3.3
Hi ZAB, There is a known issue in Java 1.6 Release 10 that affects the Eclipse update mechanism. It appears to still be in Release 12. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=255397 http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6771432 The workaround is to either change the referring URL from HTTPS to HTTP (you don't need secure connection to retrieve ADT), revert to Java 1.5, or download the ADT package to your local workstation and use a local update site to install the ADT. Good luck Eric ZeeArrBee wrote: Hi I am new to Android. I am facing some issues while installing Android_v1.1_r1. Can anyone help me?

[android-beginners] Re: ADT Plugin Issue - Eclipse 3.3
b. Downloading ADT.zip and setting the Preferences. - Failed - I am not able to find Android on the Preferences list. So I could not proceed to New archive site option. I think there is some confusion here. the New Archive Site option is not in the Android preferences. The new Archive Site option is part of the installation steps, which then installs the Android preference panel (among other things) From the installation steps at http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.1_r1/installing.html : 1. Start Eclipse, then select Help Software Updates Find and Install 2. In the dialog that appears, select Search for new features to install and click Next. 3. click New Archive Site 4. Browse and select the downloaded the zip file. 5. You should now see the new site added to the search list (and checked). Click Finish. 6. In the subsequent Search Results dialog box, select the checkbox for Android Plugin Developer Tools. This will check both features: Android Developer Tools, and Android Editors. The Android Editors feature is optional, but recommended. If you choose to install it, you need the WST plugin mentioned earlier in this page. Click Next. 7. Read the license agreement and then select Accept terms of the license agreement. Click Next. 8. Click Finish.

[android-beginners] Services and proximity alerts
Hello, I'm trying to develop a service that will contain a list of gps locations and distances which will be periodically checked to see if the user is in one of those locations. Ideally, if a user is in the location they will be given an option of taking a photo or ignoring the request. This service will be independent of other applications, i only want it for notification really. I've been looking at the services documentation but i'm still lost where to start. Can somebody give me some pointers? Do i need a remote service? Thanks, George --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

Cursor cursor = mDbHelper.fetchAll();
startManagingCursor(cursor);

SimpleCursorAdapter cursAdapt = new SimpleCursorAdapter
(this,android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line,cursor,new String[]
{DbHelper.FOOD_NAME},to);
cursAdapt.setCursorToStringConverter(new CursorConverter());
editTxt.setAdapter(cursAdapt);
**
