Because Intents are converted into raw memory buffers (think byte arrays)
for passing across process boundaries. You cannot do that safely with an
ordinary Object. You must implement some sort of serialization to do that,
and Android elected to create the Parcelable system for that role.

[android-beginners] Re: how to put button in list activity?

[Indicator Veritatis]

The examples you ask for are in the tutorial at, for example:
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/index.html

These examples in this tutorial are a great way to familiarize
yourself with views and how to modify the XML file to get what you
want out of the views.

[android-beginners] Re: problems with emulator

[Indicator Veritatis]

I am glad you solved the problem. Now as for which team should check
it out: this sounds like an emulator issues, not an Android issue. So
someone (you?) should file the bug with the people who write the
emulator.

Re: [android-beginners] Block camera capture on Android

[Kevin Duffey]

Interesting idea.. I am guessing you're looking at a way to make android
devices "kid friendly" so that they can play games, run apps, but can't take
snapshots/videos of kids in school and such. I'd love to see an app like
that.. especially one that can be set up for times.. like disable it during
school hours, but then allow it on weekends.

[android-beginners] Re: TableLayout possibly flawed in API Level 5, AVD 2.0

Still could not get it working.

To simplify the debugging, I have written some test code (downloaded
it from a forum actually:)). I wonder why even this does not work.
public class TestTableLayout extends Activity {

int PROVINCE_Alberta = 0;
int PROVINCE_BC = 1;

Amazes me how many people join forums and don't read the email when they
join or the posts.. which all have an email address you email to unsubscribe

that to Windows.  For an IDE I'm trying out IntelliJ 9 and I'm liking
that much better than Eclipse.

However, I'd say that whatever you like the best and cause you the
least friction as you develop.

[android-beginners] Re: passing arbitrary data types to a sub activity

[oregonduckman]

Yes I saw that and the use of Parcelable seems like overkill just to
pass an arbitrary data type in an Intent. Wonder if anyone knows why
the Android Framework does not support putExtra on an arbitrary data
type that can be cast into something like an Object?

Re: [android-beginners] passing arbitrary data types to a sub activity

Look at Intent.putExtra(String, Parcelable).  You will need to make your

Re: [android-beginners] how to verify whether an application is lauched or not

[Justin Anderson]

Do you mean if it is currently considered by Android to be running?  If so
you can use the following classes:

ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo
ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo
ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo
ActivityManager.RecentTaskInfo

Note that Android considers paused apps to be running.

Hope that helps,
Justin

Re: [android-beginners] Simple Android app for composing music

[Kevin Duffey]

Well firstly, let me stress that music apps generally require a little bit
more than basic java knowledge, and more so, basic android knowledge. Aside
from that, Android presently is difficult at best for real-time touch/play
sounds sort of apps. I've got a project started to make a MPC like app, but
have been reading that presently the ability to make low-latency music apps
is pretty much impossible for a few reasons. The main one being, the latency
between touch events and actually firing sounds quickly is a killer. Beyond
that, most apps that utilize any sort of say effects like delay, echo, and
play multiple sounds simultaneously are going to require the NDK for its
much faster performance. The problem is, let's say you load up 5 samples
into 5 buttons. The user presses one, you open the Android sound mechanism
and play that sound. Great..it works. There are lots of apps (Chuck Norris
comes to mind on Market) that offer buttons that you press and play some
sound bit. If you start pressing these buttons rapidly tho things start to
fall apart. But if you do use the NDK to "mix" the various audio sounds into
one mxied audio bytestream to play back, the problem there is the JNI
overhead of sending the various java loaded sound byte streams to mix thru
JNI to the NDK, then it mixes really fast, but the NDK doesn't have access
to the sound hardware.. so now that mixed byte stream has to come back thru
JNI to Java to be played. Hence, the double latency issue presently. This
also bites high framerate video games.. the same sort of issue with sending
bitmap images to the NDK layer to do fancy things or construct a frame,
requires (at least if I've read correctly) coming back thru JNI to put the
image on the screen. OpenGL is implemented (1.0 I think) for Java on
android, so you can get fairly decent graphics going.. and as I understand
it the Java implemention uses JNI calls to the OpenGL layer too.

There are a couple things coming hopefully soon to Android. The first bieng
OpenCL to allow better hardware access to sound streams. I don't know the
details of it yet, but I think it's the same API used on iPhone for low
latency audio playback. AS well, I think OpenGL 1.1 or something like it is
coming soon. The main thing is, both of these I think..again..not for sure..
give the NDK direct access to the audio and video buffers so that you can
use NDK code to mix audio and play it directly, as well as do video things
like redraw a frame, then blit it to the screen. I am not for sure on this..
hopefully someone can give a better idea of this.

Actually the doc says this query is for whether there should be an

Re: [android-beginners] Eclipse is building all projects

[Xavier Ducrohet]

In the Eclipse prefs, there's an option called "Build (if required)
before launching".
It's located under Run/Debug > Launching.

If true, our custom delegate will indeed reply true, but it's
surprising that Eclipse doesn't only build the project being launched
(and dependencies).

Making the delegate return false is an option of course, but it seems
better to make sure that the project being launched gets a build
before actually launching.

[android-beginners] passing arbitrary data types to a sub activity

[oregonduckman]

Looking for a way to pass an arbitrary data type to a sub-activity.
Seems like Intents are missing something like intent.putExtra(String
name, Object object) or bundle.putObject(String name,Object object)
where object can be any type (such as List). L

I looked at all the type that can be pass via a Bundle or Intent and
did not see any method that supports arbitrary data types.

Re: [android-beginners] Android Dev Phone upgrade to 2.0 (or 2.1)

[Tom Opgenorth]

Apparently there are some issues still with 2.0 on the Dream that HTC
is trying to work out, so nothing official from HTC yet.  That said, I
think if you look on xda-developers, you will find some home-brew
images.  I did come across a link on twitter yesterday that hinted at
a February time fram for Android 2.0 on the Dream.

If you search the android-developer list, you should be able to find
some information on this too.

[android-beginners] how to verify whether an application is lauched or not

[pradeep]

Hi All,

I have a basic question regarding how to verify whether an application
is lauched or not.

I am running monkey to test stability of phone. I also want to verify
through monkey or any other

tool whether a particular screen like contacts, messages is lauched or
not.

How can I do that. Please suggest if you have any idea.


Regards,
Pradeep

[android-beginners] Android Dev Phone upgrade to 2.0 (or 2.1)

[mikshel]

Hey Guys,

I have an Android Dev Phone (from HTC) with 1.5 Platform installed. I
am trying to find out whether it is possible to upgrade to 2.0 or 2.1
(my interest is in Bluetooth Protocols which are only available from
2.0 onwards).

Based on the information provided on the HTC site (http://
developer.htc.com/adp.html ) upgrade to 1.6 is easybut no other
information exists.

Does anyone have a clue?

Mike.

[android-beginners] Re: My app is missing in HTC tattoo market

[Jason Arora]

Couple of things you can try:
turn Copy-Protection OFF
remove the requires camera permission in the Manifest (if possible)

Those two conditions have been known to cause problems. Try searching
the Android groups for more information.

[android-beginners] Non Market Apps Install

[Mark S]

 I have developed some test apps, and have installed them via SD card,
allowed unknown sources, and installed the app with no problems.

We are developing for a company, and will not want to put our apps in
the app store, as the code is proprietary.
My question is this. Is there a way to have the applications install
on devices without having to allow unknown sources?  Can we mark get
market approval for our apps, but deliver them to selected clients and
not have them appear in the marketplace?

Thanks.

[android-beginners] Re: setContentView fails when creating a new activity

[Robert Nekic]

The opening RelativeLayout tag is closed in the middle of your
attributes declarations.  The exception is probably coming from the
lack of the layout_width and layout_height attributes since they fall
outside your tag at the moment.

[android-beginners] communication between android phone and pc using 3G network

[Na Gu]

Dear all,

I am trying to use an android phone to send a file to my laptop, the
program works well under wifi network, but it does not work if i use
3G network...How to solve this problem?

my socket is very simple:
server side:adr1 = new ServerSocket(3108);
Socket server = adr1.accept();
client side:Socket client;
client = new Socket("10.217.137.110",
3400);

I tried to use a socket with remote ip, remote port, local ip and
local port, this method does not work for both wifi and 3G network

Thanks a lot!

[android-beginners] OutOfMemory Error (Animation)

[Matthew Patience]

I am making a simple rpg game that uses animation to move characters
around. In one scene I am working on there is 4 things that happen:

1)The character walks on screen
2)A gun shot is heard when the user clicks on screen the first time
and a bullet hole appears in a window.
3) The user is given two options, shoot back or get in car. The shoot
back button does what you think it does and the character pulls out a
gun and another gunshot is heard.
4) If get in car is pressed the character walks to the car, gets in
and drives away.

The problem is the program force closes if you click the shoot back
button and then click get in car. The problem that I see from
debugging is "OutOfMemory" error. The game runs perfectly on the Nexus
One but any other phone with an inferior processor force closes. Could
anyone point out a way to save memory on this? Do I have to purposely
finish() the previous activities or is there a problem with the code
below (note that the threads it calls just are for timing the gunshot
sounds to line up with the animation).

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.scene1);

mSoundManager = new SoundManager();
mSoundManager.initSounds(getBaseContext());
mSoundManager.addSound(3, R.raw.gun_silencer);
mSoundManager.addSound(5, R.raw.glass_break);

character_img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.character_img);
character_img.setBackgroundResource(R.anim.scene1_anim);
scene1_anim = (AnimationDrawable) character_img.getBackground
();
scene1_anim.setOneShot(true);

Scene1Thread = new Scene1Thread();
Scene1Thread2 = new Scene1Thread2();

scene1_bg_img = (RelativeLayout) findViewById
(R.id.scene1_bg_img);
btn_shoot_back = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_shoot_back);
btn_getin_car = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_getin_car);

btn_shoot_back.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
btn_shoot_back.setVisibility(Button.INVISIBLE);
btn_shoot_back.setClickable(false);
character_img.setBackgroundResource
(R.anim.scene1_shoot_back);
scene1_shoot_back = (AnimationDrawable)
character_img.getBackground();
scene1_shoot_back.setOneShot(true);
scene1_shoot_back.start();
Scene1Thread2.start();

}
});
btn_getin_car.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
btn_getin_car.setVisibility(Button.INVISIBLE);
btn_getin_car.setClickable(false);
if (btn_shoot_back.getVisibility() == Button.VISIBLE) {
btn_shoot_back.setVisibility(Button.INVISIBLE);
btn_shoot_back.setClickable(false);
}
character_img.setBackgroundResource
(R.anim.scene1_getin_car);
scene1_getin_car = (AnimationDrawable)
character_img.getBackground();
scene1_getin_car.setOneShot(true);
scene1_getin_car.start();

}
});

shot_vibrate = (Vibrator) getSystemService
(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);


character_img.post(new Starter());

btn_gun_shot = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.btn_gun_shot);
btn_gun_shot.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
scene1_bg_img.setBackgroundResource
(R.drawable.scene1_bg_shot);
Scene1Thread.start();
shot_vibrate.vibrate(250);
btn_gun_shot.setClickable(false);
btn_shoot_back.setVisibility(Button.VISIBLE);
btn_getin_car.setVisibility(Button.VISIBLE);
}

});

}
class Starter implements Runnable {

public void run() {
scene1_anim.start();

}

}

[android-beginners] Eclipse is building all projects

[Rob Shepherd]

Hi Android Beginners,

I have a strange problem.  When I generate android projects in Eclipse
and run them as "Android Application" the IDE first attempts to build
all my other projects (Which is a considerable number and
unnecessary).

I have many other types of Projects: groovy, maven, ant, plain java,
EE, web projects but this only happens with Android apps.

This happens on "brand new" projects - I.e. immediately after the "new
android project" wizard.
 ( this confirms there's no junk in the dependencies lit in the
project configuration panel)


I think it's to do with something called the launch delegate, but I
may be wrong.

Any thoughts or solutions are gratefully received.

With thanks

Rob

[android-beginners] Simple Android app for composing music

[Jack]

Hi, I am thinking of developing a simple Android application that lets
users compose music on Android phones.

I am new to the Android platform. I have some coding experience in
Java that involves being aware of basic OOPS and Java concepts and
developing some small Java applications(less than 1k lines of code). I
have set up Android on my Linux system and have been able to run a
"hello World" application.

I want to develop a simple Android app in a month wherein users can
compose music. What I want to do is this- A  touch on the screen
should produce/emit a sound/tone. Touching different parts of the
screen should produce/emit sounds of different pitch levels/
frequencies. Once this is done I want to improve the UI and add some
basic features of playback, "clearing" currently selected tones on the
screen.

How do I start doing this? Also, given my limited experience with
java, how should I divide the tasks so that I can finish this in a
month?

Hi, sorry, I figured out the problem:  I forgot to copy this piece of
the code.


@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
switch (id) {
case DATE_DIALOG_ID:
return new DatePickerDialog(this,
mDateSetListener,
mYear, mMonth, mDay);
}
return null;
}

For those still struggling: here is the complete
HelloDatePicker.java:


import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.DatePickerDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.DatePicker;
import android.view.View;

import java.util.Calendar;


public class HelloDatePicker extends Activity
{
private TextView mDateDisplay;
private Button mPickDate;

private int mYear;
private int mMonth;
private int mDay;

static final int DATE_DIALOG_ID = 0;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

// capture our View elements
mDateDisplay = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.dateDisplay);
mPickDate = (Button) findViewById(R.id.pickDate);

// add a click listener to the button
mPickDate.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);
}
});

// get the current date
final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
mYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
mMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
mDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

// display the current date
updateDisplay();
}

@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
switch (id) {
case DATE_DIALOG_ID:
return new DatePickerDialog(this,
mDateSetListener,
mYear, mMonth, mDay);
}
return null;
}


// updates the date we display in the TextView
private void updateDisplay() {
mDateDisplay.setText(
new StringBuilder()
// Month is 0 based so add 1
.append(mMonth + 1).append("-")
.append(mDay).append("-")
.append(mYear).append(" "));
}
// the callback received when the user "sets" the date in the
dialog
private DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener mDateSetListener =
new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year,
  int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth)
{
mYear = year;
mMonth = monthOfYear;
mDay = dayOfMonth;
updateDisplay();
}
};
}

[android-beginners] code stepping icons disabled

[Juan]

Hi, Stack.

I have just started with Android it runs on the Eclipse SDK. Eclipse
version: 3.5.1 and Android 2.0.1
I need to debug my code by stepping through it. However, the "step in"
and "step over" buttons are
disabled in the debug environment. How can I enable these buttons?

[android-beginners] Re: setContentView fails when creating a new activity

[RNekic]

I find that exceptions triggered by setContentView are usually caused
by something simple in the layout file; often a missing layout_width
or layout_height on one of my View declarations.

[android-beginners] Re: Keys don't work with SurfaceView

[Jason Arora]

That's strange, I posted a reply but my message did not appear. Sorry
if I end up double-posting.

Try adding setFocusableInTouchMode(true) in addition to setFocusable
(true).

Also, your onKey callback looks incomplete, it should look more like
this:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {...}

@Override
public boolean onKeyUp(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {...}

[android-beginners] java.awt.font error when opening Android Layout editor

[Shyam]

Hi All, I have just started learning Android application programming.
When I try to edit project/res/main.xml using android layout editor I
get the error "Could not initialize java.awt.font". Below is the
config.

OS: Linux X64 Ubuntu Lucid Lynx with ia32 libraries
Eclipse: 3.5.1
Android ADT Plugin 0.9.5
Android SDK 2.1
Sun Java JDK 1.6.0.16
Sun Java JRE 1.6.0.16
also has the OpenJDK and OpenJRE but changed this setting to use Sun
Java in Window->Preferences->Java->Installed JREs.

I am able to open this file using normal xml editor but not with
default layout editor.

Please help.

Thanks
Shyam

[android-beginners] Re: Keys don't work with SurfaceView

[Jason Arora]

In addition to setFocusable, try calling setFocusableInTouchMode
(true).

Your onKey should look more like this:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {...}

@Override
public boolean onKeyUp(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {...}

[android-beginners] Centering ImageButtons within TableRow

[MobDev]

Hi,
I am trying to create a grid-like UI implementing ImageButtons.
For that purpose I have selected the TableLayout, implementing several
TableRows which in turn include a couple of ImageButtons.
I'd like the two TableRows to cover the whole Table's width (so the
width should be divided in two equal parts) and then the ImageButtons
should be centered within the TableRows...
Any tips/hints on how to achieve this ?
thanks in advance...

[android-beginners] Phone temperature

[Steeler]

I just finally got an ADP1 (used for ~175!) and I'm really happily
surprised at the performance of my app... it was running pretty badly
in the emulator, but apparently the emulator's just really slow.

One thing though... running my app (a 2D game that draws a fair amount
of sprites and has background music) makes the phone get pretty darn
warm. Is that normal?

You get this error when you have not signed your APK and attempt to
launch it from the Home screen on a phone. I assume you are trying to
launch on a physical phone rather than the emulator?

Are you trying to run it through the Emulator? Or did you get it to

This extra information will be helpful in solving your issue.

You have got to be a little more specific...

*> I m trying to launch my own activity from Home Screen*
Ok, install your app as normal and create a shortcut as you would any other
app...

*> I gave the button for the same to do it*
What?

*> I then build the code & wen i click the button i get error saying the
application is not installed on the phone..*
So put your app on the phone...

[android-beginners] Cell information like on old phones?

[Kiripolszky Károly]

Hi all!

My old SE phone was able to show additional cell information like city/
district name, train stations, events, etc. depending on the currently
used GSM station. As my operator supports this, I'd really love to
have the same information on my G1, but I can't seem to find support
for the same feature in Android, only for getting the name of the
network operator. Would someone please tell me how to retrieve this
kind of additional cell info? Thanks for any replies in advance!

[android-beginners] Re: problems with emulator

[jj]

Finally, I found the problem, and I am posting it here, in case it can
be of any help to anyone...

The emulator seems to crash when the operative system is NOT
english...

was anyone aware of this?

I had my windows xp sp3 in spanish, and no matter how many times I
installed and reinstalled JDK... I even tried many of the available
android sdk's, from the old ones to the most recent ones... The
emulator (run both from the console and from eclipse) always
crashes...

Then I installed microsoft virtual pc, and an english windows xp, with
only the latest JDK and the android SDK, and it worked straight
away...


It would be good if someone from the android team can check this out


Thanks

[android-beginners] surfaceview + glsurfaceview + framelayout

[Tze Yun, Glenn Poh]

Hi,

   I'm new at this (java and opengl) so please bear with me if the
answer to the question is simple. :)

   I'm trying to get a camera preview screen with the ability to
display 3d objects simultaneously. Having gone through the samples at
the api demos, I thought combining the code for the the examples at
the api demo would suffice. But somehow its not working. The forces me
to shut down upon startup and the error is mentioned as null pointer
exception. Could someone share with me where did I go wrong and how to
proceed from there. How I did the combination for the code is as shown
below:

myoverview.xml
**

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">




myoverview.java
**
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.SurfaceView;
import android.view.Window;

public class MyOverView extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

// Hide the window title.
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

// camera view as the background
SurfaceView cameraView = (SurfaceView) findViewById
(R.id.camera);
cameraView = new CameraView(this);

// visual of both cubes
GLSurfaceView cubesView = (GLSurfaceView) findViewById
(R.id.cubes);
cubesView = new GLSurfaceView(this);
cubesView.setRenderer(new CubeRenderer(false));

// set view
setContentView(R.layout.myoverview);
}
}

GLSurfaceView.java
**
import android.content.Context;

class GLSurfaceView extends android.opengl.GLSurfaceView {
public GLSurfaceView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
}

NOTE : I didnt list the rest of the files as they are just copies of
the api demos. The cameraView refers to the camerapreview.java example
and the CubeRenderer refers to the CubeRenderer.java and Cube.java
example.

Any help would be appreciated as I've been stuck at this for a couple
of days :p Thanks

HI.

Just like with other views, put it in the layout xml:


http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
