It does work, it is used in many of the apps, and the ApiDemos example
shows it too.  Have you looked at the log to see any error messages
reported?  You also might want to try wiping data to make sure you
data partition is all in good shape.

 I just up the subject because it seems to be a bug or a mess in the
 documentation.

 Before trying to use the new preference mechanism I try my previous
 preference storage (that worked perfectly under m5).
 This mechanism worked before like that :

 Restore :

    public static void restoreConfig(Activity act) {
         //--- OLD
         SharedPreferences settings =
 act.getSharedPreferences(Constant.CONFIG_FILE_NAME,
 Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
 .

 Save :
  public static void saveConfig(Context act) {
 //--- OLD
         SharedPreferences settings =
 act.getSharedPreferences(Constant.CONFIG_FILE_NAME,
 Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
         SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
         editor.clear();

         editor.putInt(Constant.CONFIG_KEY_STATION_RETURNED,
 getMaxStationReturned());
 
         editor.commit();

     }

 I saw no changes in the documentation regardding this point and the
 code still compiles, even after the 0.9 migration.
 So my other question is : why does this mechanism does not work after
 the 0.9 migration ?
 Do we have to put specific permission ?

 Then I still don't understand the new mechanism does not save
 persistent data.

 Thx for your help.

 Hi all,

 I am trying to port an location aware chat application from m5-rc15 to 
 Android 0.9 beta.
 In the last version my application was using the mocked gps in the following 
 way:

 *         I upload the kml file with the mocked track in 
 /data/misc/location/providerName

 *          I pass the providerName in LocationManager.requestUpdates()
 In this way my IntentReceiver continuously receives updates.

 In Android 0.9 things seems to have changed quite a lot. I found the mocked 
 provider gps files in /etc/location, a folder where I am no more able to 
 write data. Anyway If I simply call LocationManager.requestUpdates() passing 
 the gps provider, nothing seems to happen and my LocationListener code is not 
 executed.
 I found out that using ddms tool, mocked tracks can be loaded and fired to 
 emulator, but I am not able to successfully use the same kml files I used 
 before (ddms shows only location  (0,0,0),  may be something is wrong in my 
 files).

 Can anybody please explain how I could be able to reproduce something similar 
 to the old behaviour?
 How can I use the gps provider for example?

 Thanks a lot for your time.

 My best regards,

 Stefano

there is no need to use singleTask, singleTop or any
other special flags. It has something to do with the way Eclipse re-
installs your application. If you run without using Eclipse everything
should work fine. I do the following to get the correct behaviour:

1. I run my app in Eclipse using Run  Run History  myApp. The app
opens up with the home activity
2. I hit the Back button. The Android home screen with the app menu is
displayed
3. I start my app from the Android app menu. The app opens up with the
home activity
4. From now on, it will work as expected so when I press Home in a
'secondary' activity and then restart my App again from the Android
app menu it will go back to the  'secondary' activity.

What are the steps? Is extending SyncableContentProvider instead of
ContentProvider the solution? Is there any code sample?

Hi Graeme,

you need absolute paths, where your sdcard image lays, i.e. if your
file sdcard.img is in C:\sdcard\sdcard.img, then you should input C:
\sdcard\sdcard.img, also, the absolute path where your file is.

Emulator path play no role.

I hope, that's you needed.

I'd also be interested in knowing if the dialer source code is

not open then
what kind of views were used to make the custom buttons and text

[android-developers] Overriding Contacts View

2008-08-29 Thread chokoreto


Hi,

I am trying to replace the default contacts view, but I get a Security
Exception.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity
ComponentInfo{com.android.contacts/
com.android.contacts.DialtactsActivity}:
java.lang.SecurityException: Requesting code from
com.swisscom.addrbook.test (with uid 10017) to be run in process
android.process.shared (with uid 10004)

I guess, it has something to do that the Contacts Application uses the
TabActivity and each Activity in the tab runs in different processes.
Is there any way how to solve that?

I was using this intent-filter

intent-filter 
  action
android:name=com.android.contacts.action.LIST_DEFAULT /

   My goal is to create a number of buttons on an app. view. The
number of those buttons depends on the given data and can vary from
user to user, and is determined only at runtime. I couldn't realy find
how this could be done.

   Any tips welcome and thanks,

[android-developers] Re: openOrCreateDatabase or what?

You should not use openOrCreateDatabase() directly, instead use
SqliteOpenHelper. For details see the docs below:
http://code.google.com/android/devel/data/databases.html

2008/8/29 munzelmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 Prior to release 0.9 one could do the following to open or create a
 SQLite database:

 try {
  db = context.openDatabase(DATABASE_NAME, null);
 } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
  db = context.createDatabase(DATABASE_NAME, DATABASE_VERSION,
Context.MODE_PRIVATE, null);
  createTables();
  insertSampleData();
 }

 So if the application can't open the database it creates a new one and
 creates all tables and inserts test data.

 Now both methods are gone and there is a single method
 openOrCreateDatabase().

 This method doesn't allow the programmer to distinguish between
 opening an existing and creating a new database.
 To decide if it should call createTables() and insertSampleData()
 additional checks are necessary.

 Can someone explain the background why this change was introduced? I
 always prefer a clear contract of the API like different methods for
 open(), close(), create(). Or did I miss something?

[android-developers] Re: Overriding Contacts View


This isn't supported in 1.0.  You can only replace the entire
Dialtacts activity.

 Hi,

 I guess, it has something to do that the Contacts Application uses the
 TabActivity and each Activity in the tab runs in different processes.
 Is there any way how to solve that?

 I was using this intent-filter

[android-developers] Re: Comunication Server-Phone: SMS directed to an application (0.9 SDK)

2008-08-29 Thread Cristina

Hi!

I am actually using the http client library in order to comunicate
from my app to the server.
The problem is that I want also the server to send some kind of
events to the phone..so I need also to open a comunication from the
central server to the phone... In this case, the phone will act as a
server receiving the events...

That is why I was thinking about sending the events from the central
server using SMS...but if I cannot avoid others to receive those SMS,
this option is not valid either... Gtalk was the other option, but
there is not GTalk in 0.9..

I do not want either to use polling (the phone asking the server for
events from time to time)

Any other option? wappush? sending SMS to a port associated to the app
like in J2ME?

Hi!

We are designing an application for android phones. In our application
there is a central server, and this server must send some application
information to the phone.
So, we thought to use SMS in order to communicate with our application
in the phone.
Our application will look for messages with a particular prefix and
consume it. Other applications (including messagig applications)
should not get the application SMS messages.

In order to do that, we have implemeted a Sms BroadcastReceiver, that
get all SMS messages, but only processed the ones with the application
prefix. After processing them, we do an abortBroadcast(), in order to
stop the broadcast of the message to the Messaging application or
other applications receiving the same intent.

However, SMS Inbox is receiving the message, and is showing the
message in the notification application.

1. Is there any way for an application to receive the SMS message,
avoiding the rest of applications to receive it? Is abortBroadcast
working for SMS broadcast intents? I understand that maybe the
abortBroadcast is not working for SMS broadcast intents, because of
security reasons (for example we could abort the broadcast of all SMS
messages ). Is there another way for an application to to receive SMS
messages in an exclusive way (the rest of applications do not
receive it)?

I don't think you can alter the behavior of inbuilt apps, Messaging(SMS) is
an inbuilt app, so you cannot
do anything, it will receive SMS and show the notification.

2. Is there any other way to communicate information from a external
server to the application in the phone?

For example, In other projects with other phones we have used
transparent wappush to implement that communication..Does android
support wappush protocol?

We would not like to implement an always open connection in the phone
application (where the phone acts like a server), because that implies
that we must have a list with all the IPs of the phones in order to
communicate with them..that complicates a lot the implementation...

You can use the inbuilt apache http client library in Android to communicate
with your server
app..http://code.google.com/android/reference/org/apache/http/client/packa...

Any other idea?- Ocultar texto de la cita -

[android-developers] PACKAGE_ADDED

2008-08-29 Thread viktor


Let's continue this discussion:

http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/697e7e7cc6dd3d1f/fdcf520cce83cf0b

The PACKAGE_ADDED broadcast is not received by the installed (added)
package anymore (SDK 0.9).

This was the only way to let an application to execute a piece of code
when it is installed on the phone.

This feature is especially important when an application is
reinstalled. Our app needs a service to be running. We use
BOOT_COMPLETED event to start the service when the device boots up.

As expected, Android kills the service before an app is reinstalled.
But in SDK 0.9, there is no way to start the service after the new
version of the app is installed. I hope this will be addressed in 1.0.

[android-developers] Story about Android

2008-08-29 Thread Vasanth Sridharan

Hi all,
My name is Vasanth Sridharan and I'm working on a story for Silicon Alley
Insider (www.alleyinsider.com) about Android Developers and what the general
feeling from the group is as we near the launch date.

There have been a lot of updates over the last week or so that have seemed
to address a lot of the concerns that developers have had with the platform
(the new SDK, the preview of Android Market, the announcement of the ADC I
winners). So my question is, are developers excited about Android again? Is
there still a lot of worry going into the first launch? Or, conversely, have
you never been been worried about the platform?

I know there are still some outstanding issues, like the Bluetooth API, so
how important are those?

Thanks,
Vasanth

2008-08-29 Thread Casey Borders


I was worried about the future of the platform and I still do worry
about the ultimate openness of it, but I must admit that I am
extremely excited about the direction it's taking and about the
impending release of the HTC Dream!  The new UI in the updated
emulator is very attractive and extremely responsive.  The addition of
things like StreetView to the maps in the new SDK are fantastic!  My
initial excitement in the platform is reborn!

[android-developers] Send SMS from one emulator instance to another

2008-08-29 Thread Devesh


Hi,
I have read many posts on the Android developers forum, however, I am
not able to resolve the problem.

I am trying to send SMS text message from one emulator instance to
another emulator instance on the same machine, but the second emulator
instance does not display the text message. If however, I use the
telnet window and send sms from there, the second emulator instance
displays the text message.
In the first emulator instance, I am using this code:-

SmsManager sm = SmsManager.getDefault();
sm.sendTextMessage(, null, Hello world, null, null, null);

where the first parameter is the sendTo address, which is actually the
port# on which the second emulator is running.
I have used several options on this parameter value, such as the
device name emulator-tcp- and even the telnet port#  5554.
However, the second emulator instance just does not display the text
message sent from the first emulator instance.

Following is the manifest of the sms sender activity:-
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=com.orange.mobicomm.sms

[android-developers] I2C Devices

2008-08-29 Thread Naitik


I am trying to write a driver for a I2C chip. I did insmod on my
driver from android shell, I can see the printk in the init getting
executed.

To my understanding...
What init does is, it calls i2c_add_driver(x); to register my
driver with i2c core.

Upon registration i2c core should find a i2c adapter, if it finds
adapter, it should invoke attach function that was part of the
i2c_driver struct.

attach function should look for the device(address) on the i2c but via
I2c Adapter, it finds a device at the address that its looking for, it
should then invoke the probe and let the fun begin...

But I dont see a printk inside my attach function getting executed,
which prompts to suspect that kernel is not detecting any simulated
i2c adapter...

Can you please comment.

[android-developers] API Call Management: Issues 54 and 675

2008-08-29 Thread Raymond C. Rodgers


Hi folks,
 Has any one gotten an API solution to reject and/or terminate calls as 
described in issues #54 and 675? Both of these items have been reviewed 
and accepted, but it doesn't appear that an engineer has been assigned 
to either one.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=54
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=675

 I suppose there might be security issues posed by these, after all a 
malicious application could then intercept calls and hold a phone 
hostage, but there are legitimate reasons for providing this 
functionality as well. Any comments from the Google folks?

Thanks,
Raymond

[android-developers] Re: ddms Error

 When you post a problem/question, it is *very important* that you give a
detailed description of what the issue is. You should try to include details
like:

 Steps you followed
 Operating System
 Sdk version
 Logcat output
 Sample code ( preferably the code should compile and be executable as is)

 Posts with such detailed information will generally be reviewed quicker
than posts without it.


2008/8/29 Dipen [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 Group,

 I have not seen any reply regarding these error. I have seen entries
 in some of the blogs from Developers for months and no solution have
 been reported by Google Android Team.

 Finally,  I have solution with help of my very smart friend and Co-
 worker Enrique Sanchez.

 Here is how to solve the error:

 1. Download a file named 'swt-M20060629-1905-gtk-linux-x86_64'. I
 could not upload file to these blog. So the easiest way is to just
 Google it.
 2. Unzip it and replace it to your android's tools/lib folder.
 3. Done.

 Again many thanks to Enrique.

 Thanks,
 Dipen

[android-developers] Re: Create a tmp file


We don't recommend using File.createTempFile().  It is preferred that
you use the Context APIs to create files in your local filesystem
sandbox.

Temp files are no longer created in /tmp because we only have a
limited amount of space, and want to be able to account and manager
for the storage used for each application, which is why you are only
allowed to write in your sandbox.  (In fact I think /tmp may have been
a RAM file system in M5, which obviously is not something we want
applications making use of like that.)

[android-developers] Re: PACKAGE_ADDED

This is the way it will behave for 1.0. We deliberately don't allow
the application to be involved in installation, so the system can take
care of everything and be able to completely clean up after the app is
removed. You can do your initialization the first time the user
starts the app.

For updating, this is effectively a complete uninstall and then
reinstall of the app, just leaving its previous data around. As such,
updating is the same as installing. The user needs to be involved in
the update process anyway, so we expect them to go through the same
steps of updating, and then running the app as desired, and you can re-
initialize there.

Anyway, as I say this is the way it is for 1.0. We certainly may
tweak things in future releases as we see what apps want to do and
what makes sense (and as the marketplace app evolves), but have no
plans at this point.

On Aug 29, 10:36 am, viktor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Let's continue this discussion:

http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...

The PACKAGE_ADDED broadcast is not received by the installed (added)
package anymore (SDK 0.9).

This was the only way to let an application to execute a piece of code
when it is installed on the phone.

This feature is especially important when an application is
reinstalled. Our app needs a service to be running. We use
BOOT_COMPLETED event to start the service when the device boots up.

As expected, Android kills the service before an app is reinstalled.
But in SDK 0.9, there is no way to start the service after the new
version of the app is installed. I hope this will be addressed in 1.0.

[android-developers] Re: How to re-use the photo picker activity in my application

Did you launch this with sdcard installed? Are there any Pictures in your
Pictures app?

If not, you should install sdcard, take pictures from the Camera app and
then try app.
I tried executing your code and onActivityResult() is being called. I tested
it on Linux, but the OS shouldn't matter in this case.
When your app launches the Pictures application, pick a picture and you
should see the logcat output of Got the result...

Hi Cheryl:

I think  'wait-for-device' sort of works :). For instance, this

However, when I attempt to use 'adb wait-for-device install', I see

for device to come online, but not long enough for the whole system to
fully boot.

Thanks for the report, I've filed a bug on your behalf here:

[android-developers] 'Keytool error' when building

2008-08-29 Thread David Given

I have just upgraded from m5 to 0.9 on Linux using the ADT on Eclipse
3.4, and (after fixing my program) I am finding that it's refusing to
build anything. The project I'm using was created on m5 and I'm now
using it on 0.9.

I get the following in the Problem pane:

Type: Generic ADT Problem
Location: Unknown
Description: Error generating final archive: null

...and the following is appearing in the console:

Signing Key Creation: keytool error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
java.io.IOException: Invalid char:

(There are two spaces after 'char:'.)

Once at this point, the ADT seems to think everything is fine; but my
.apk hasn't been created and attempting to run the program fails (of
course). I have to manually clean the project to make anything happen again.

I've deleted my ~/.android directory as per recommendations, but it has
no effect. I suspect Eclipse has something confused somewhere as part of
the upgrade process; the Build Configurations menu appears greyed out,
which disturbs me slightly (shouldn't I be able to select between
Release and Debug)?

Any suggestions?

[android-developers] Re: Database - Content Provider - Syncable


Hi,
the idea is to have two databases, one on android device and another
on a server.
databases and there tables can be populated with new data either on
android device or on server.

Use case:
user can add through UI (email, sms, mms) new data to the tables and
populate them on android device.

Use case:
user has the intention to sync android device database with the Server
database.

Use case:
User has a similar application on Server and new added data on the
server database will be syncronized with android device database.

thanks.

Android framework does not provide any inbuilt service to sync your app's
database with with a network database.
You could use the the HttpClient library to communicate with the
Server...apart from the the sync logic is something you will have
to design ...sorry I can't help much there...

Hi,
the idea is to have two databases, one on android device and another
on a server.
databases and there tables can be populated with new data either on
android device or on server.

Use case:
user can add through UI (email, sms, mms) new data to the tables and
populate them on android device.

Use case:
user has the intention to sync android device database with the Server
database.

Use case:
User has a similar application on Server and new added data on the
server database will be syncronized with android device database.

thanks.

My application has a content provider, which operates on a database
with 4 tables. I want to make them synchable.

Could you clarify this a bit more...an example of what your are trying to
do
will be nice...
If you meant synchable as in they should have the same data then thats
always the case, because your content provider is querying the underlying
database.

What are the steps? any help or reference welcome !

Thanks.
