}
}
}
public class MediaWriter implements Runnable {

public void run() {
try {
sender = new LocalSocket();
sender.connect(new LocalSocketAddress(S_ADDR));
FileInputStream media = new
FileInputStream(/system/media/

int readed;
byte [] b = new byte [1024];

[android-developers] Re: Orientation changes simulation
Just to clarify things a bit, two different forms of orientation are being discussed here. The orientation changes that are triggered by emulator keys are gross orientation of the device itself - primarily, is the screen in portrait or landscape mode. Because the screen will be laid out differently for portrait vs. landscape orientations, this has direct impact on the view system and your activities. See http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/app/Activity.html#ConfigurationChanges for more information. Finer-grained orientation changes, such as those that might come from sensors such as an accelerometer, and do not immediately impact the view system, are provided via the android.hardware.SensorManager and android.hardware.SensorListener classes. It is helpful to clarify which type you're interested in, as the answers are quite different. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Bug in Bitmap.compress when used on JPEGs?
Maybe some of the requests are getting blocked. Try adding connect and
read timeouts by rewriting the url.openStream() to
openConnection().getInputStream():
URL url = uri.toURL();
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
con.setConnectTimeout(3000);
con.setReadTimeout(3000);
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(con.getInputStream());
Adjust the 3000 ms timeout values if necessary.
You can add exception handling for the connection timeouts.

[android-developers] Re: getScale replacement for BaseAdapter in 0.9 beta?
Hey,
I appreciate the prompt reply. Unfortunately I'm having trouble making
complete sense of your instructions. I admit I'm new to Java and
Android (though I'm very experienced in C#.NET so I'm picking it up
pretty quickly).
Right now I have the following code in an activity:
Gallery gal = new Gallery(ctx);
gal.setLayoutParams(new
LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
gal.setAdapter(new HomeGalImgAdapter(ctx));
gal.setHorizontalFadingEdgeEnabled(true);
gal.setSpacing(0);
gal.setClickable(true);
gal.setFocusable(true);
// gal.setUnselectedAlpha(0.5f);
topPanel.addView(gal);
Along with this image adapter class:
public class HomeGalImgAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private Context myContext;
private int[] myImageIds = {
R.drawable.test128_add_to_folder,
R.drawable.test128_calendar,
R.drawable.test128_chart_pie,
R.drawable.test128_clock,
R.drawable.test128_comments
};
public HomeGalImgAdapter(Context c) { this.myContext = c; }
public int getCount() { return this.myImageIds.length; }
public Object getItem(int position) { return position; }
public long getItemId(int position) { return position; }
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
ImageView i = new ImageView(this.myContext);
i.setImageResource(this.myImageIds[position]);
/* Image should be scaled as width/height are set. */
i.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
/* Set the Width/Height of the ImageView. */
i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(96, 96));
return i;
}
}
This works perfectly, and the gallery displays with a bunch of other
content. How do I implement your suggestion to have the not-in-focus
images be scaled smaller?
Also, I am trying to figure out how to set a TextView to act as a
caption whenever the picture changes focus, but at the moment as soon
as I start scrolling through the gallery and the first image loses
focus I am unable to get another image to take focus. Still trying to
figure that one out...
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Just override the method getChildStaticTransformation() in ViewGroup
and for the given child, set the transformation to a smaller scale.
Then in your constructors, make sure you set the flag
FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS in mGroupFlags:
mGroupFlags |= FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS;

How would I go about doing this? I'd really like to enable two pieces
of functionality that were removed in the 0.9 Beta, a smaller scale

but I can live without that...
Any chance we could get a code sample on what you suggest?

[android-developers] Re: Bug in Bitmap.compress when used on JPEGs?
Hi there, I think I was able to track it down. It seems to be based on how the JPEG was saved. If it was saved using Photoshop in 'normal' mode, it doesn't work. If it's saved using 'Save for Web Devices...', it works. The same applies for saving it with GIMP, it then works flawlessly, too. I did a 'strings filename' in a terminal on the different files, and it yielded that saving it in Photoshop/normal mode puts quite a bunch of extra material like EXIF and additional Photoshop-metadata in the file. This seems to make something inside Android (OpenCORE?) choke on it. Can anyone confirm this? Cheers, snowcrash @Kim: It wasn't a timeout, but it is a good idea to set one nevertheless.

[android-developers] Re: Will android provide Mail API??
Where did you get these classes from? These are not part of the SDK,
nor internal implementation of the platform, as far as I know. Given
that, you shouldn't be having classes in the com.android namespace,
since that is reserved for android.

[android-developers] Re: Mock Location Provider [SOLVED+IMPROVED]
I somehow improved Justins code. See http://pastebin.com/m1f06415f It has now a New-York based journey (longer than before) and the time-interval between each points can be set so that the update inveral (set to 500ms) can be arbitraryly small (see line 177) @Justin: if you like it, please include it in you zip-file I just posted some code at http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/web/mock_provider.zip that implements a mock location provider. This runs entirely in the emulator, so it should work across all platforms. It allows you to specify a set of coordinates and will the just loop through them forever. This could easily be adapted to read data from a file, URL, etc. As Stefan points out on http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/2b71c14f34dd8788 , its important to set the time value on the Location you pass to the location service. If a new Location has the same time value as the previous one the LocationManager received, the location won't be updated. You should be able to compile this, install it on the emulator, run it, and then see the location change in Maps application. Hopefully this puts it all together and resolves issues that many have been encountering.

Nobody should publish their app without first running it on actual hardware. I don't know what your assumptions on resource constraints are, but while developing for J2ME, I've had to deal with a wide variety of firmware issues making that no single phone is representative either any more than an emulator, and the cost of testing on the myriad of Symbian based phones is for most developers prohibitive.

[android-developers] Re: Setting highlight text color (textColorHighlight doesn't do it)
If you want the textcolor to change to white when you select it...you should use ColorStateList. Say, you have a ColorStateList drawable named textcolor: selector xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; item android:state_selected=true android:color=#fff / item android:color=#ff0 / /selector you can set your textview's attributes to: android:textColorHighlight=#00f android:textColor=@drawable/textcolor 2008/9/2 Andrew Dupont [EMAIL PROTECTED] Despite its name, the global textColorHighlight attribute controls the color of the highlight itself, rather than the highlighted text. So if I've got gray text and a dark blue highlight color, it appears as gray on blue, and I can't make the selected text white on blue no matter what I try. None of the inverse text color styles work for this. Any ideas?

[android-developers] Re: Orientation changes simulation
Testing across multiple devices may be needed, though our goal is certainly to have much more consistency across devices than J2ME does. Testing on at least -one- device, however, should be a basic expectation. If you are running on the emulator, you have no idea how your app will behave on actual hardware. I don't think we are expecting developers to have their apps up on the marketplace the first day devices are shipped. At least, if I was a developer, I certainly wouldn't want to do that, because I would have no idea how my app would actually behave on real hardware. Since Android is about a third party developer ecosystem as much as it is about a phone platform, we are in the somewhat tricky situation where initial hardware is available at the same time for both users and developers, which does imply that developers won't have their applications available to users the first day devices are on sale.

You can do that by right clicking on your project in the Package Explorer, selecting Build Path - Configure Build Path, clicking on Libraries then clicking Add JARs. If nothing is listed you need to add the libraries to your project, you can do that by creating a new folder in your project called lib, and copying the .jar files recommended above in that directory and then right clicking on that folder and clicking refresh. At that point the libraries should be listed in the Add JARs dialog. On Aug 26, 7:49 pm, Zack [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for your many helpful posts!

[android-developers] Re: allocation in loop each 1s
I'm not sure what you mean by framerate... we are talking about http
requests, right? They shouldn't be tied to a frame rate. You really
need to think about the repercussions of running on a mobile device:
- When on a EDGE network, it can easily take more than a second just
to set up a network connection.
- Opening a network connection puts the device in to a high power
state, and it will remain in that state for at least 10 seconds as it
expects more network traffic. This will drain the battery very
quickly.
- Even if you get the network connection up in time, it is doubtful
you will get all of your data back within 1 second.
As a target, I would recommend trying to do a network connection no
more than once a minute (and this only when your app is in the
foreground; when in the background you want to be much more frugal
than that). In that connection, you can retrieve all of the
information around the current area that you might be interested in.
That is, batch your requests so that you can get a lot of data in a
small number of batches, to help mitigate the impact of network
connection delays and bringing the device in to a high power state by
performing network activity.
Another option you can use is to keep a persistent connection open
while your app is in the foreground, which the server and client talk
back and forth on as needed. When there is no traffic on the
connection the device can go into a lower power state (though there is
still the delay so you still want to batch interactions as much as
possible), but this avoids the initial setup overhead. I'm not sure
how useful this is for doing repeated requests, except for getting rid
of the htttp and network setup overhead, but it can be very useful
when a server is pushing data to an app on the server's schedule.

For framerate I'm talking about number of request by time unit. Each

Thanks for your advices!
On 3 sep, 21:39, hackbod [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I'm not sure what you mean by framerate... we are talking about http
requests, right? They shouldn't be tied to a frame rate. You really
need to think about the repercussions of running on a mobile device:
- When on a EDGE network, it can easily take more than a second just
to set up a network connection.
- Opening a network connection puts the device in to a high power
state, and it will remain in that state for at least 10 seconds as it
expects more network traffic. This will drain the battery very
quickly.
- Even if you get the network connection up in time, it is doubtful
you will get all of your data back within 1 second.
As a target, I would recommend trying to do a network connection no
more than once a minute (and this only when your app is in the
foreground; when in the background you want to be much more frugal
than that). In that connection, you can retrieve all of the
information around the current area that you might be interested in.
That is, batch your requests so that you can get a lot of data in a
small number of batches, to help mitigate the impact of network
connection delays and bringing the device in to a high power state by
performing network activity.
Another option you can use is to keep a persistent connection open
while your app is in the foreground, which the server and client talk
back and forth on as needed. When there is no traffic on the
connection the device can go into a lower power state (though there is
still the delay so you still want to batch interactions as much as
possible), but this avoids the initial setup overhead. I'm not sure
how useful this is for doing repeated requests, except for getting rid
of the htttp and network setup overhead, but it can be very useful
when a server is pushing data to an app on the server's schedule.

[android-developers] ListView and custom rows containing EditText
Hello everyone, I had problems today concerning ListView/ListAdapter... I'd like to get an activity that is very similar to the New contact one in v0.9. Basically a ListView, that is expandable by custom rows containing EditText, RateBars, etc.. I tried by extending BaseAdapter's onView (the simple way by inflating layout-xmls per row), which actually worked, but nevertheless, it raised a couple of problems which I want to address here. 1. Whenever I touch an EditText and start typing, the focus jumps to the respective EditText of the first row that has the same inflated listitem-layout. Navigating with keys works. 2. Changing orientation of the device in emulator (Ctrl+F12) causes the EditTexts to lose all changes made. Do I really need to save their states manually? 3. How to get a row that sticks to the bottom (the two buttons in New contact)? It is apparently achieved by an additional row containing nothing. So, are there any solutions around that I did not see yet? I had a look at Mark Murphy's blog, and also some of the tutorials on anddev.org..

Hi everybody!
I finally was able to call the web service i wanted from my

[android-developers] Re: ListView and custom rows containing EditText
ListView isn't really meant to handle that type of UI with editable entries, as it manages the selection state of the items directly. It's designed to handle long lists of items that don't take focus themselves. The contact editing screen is using a vertical LinearLayout wrapped in a ScrollView, containing horizontal LinearLayours of the EditTexts and Buttons. When using a ScrollView you can set android:fillViewport=true in your layout file to get it to fill up the entire screen, which is how contacts pushes the buttons to the bottom. -Jeff On Wed, Sep 3, 2008 at 1:19 PM, istv [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello everyone, I had problems today concerning ListView/ListAdapter...

It can be used for location search. example: getFromLocationName(pizza San Jose, CA, 5) Will this return the pizza places around San Jose, CA? Business search is not a part of the current API, so you can only search places or addresses..

[android-developers] Re: Replacement for MapView's OnLongPressListener
2008/9/3 Megha Joshi [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008/9/1 plusminus [EMAIL PROTECTED] What is the common replacement for MapView's OnLongPressListener (since its gone in 0.9) ? Since MapView's setOnLongPressListener() method is now removed...if you need the same functionality...you could try handling the OnTouchEvent() and passing it on to a GestureDetector to handle it yourself.. Further, you can use getProjection() to get the lat/lng from the pixel co-ordinates of the touchEvent.. OnLongClick does not provide the Coordinates :( PS: This is my third try to post o_O. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: getScale replacement for BaseAdapter in 0.9 beta?
Any suggestions anyone?

Hey,
I appreciate the prompt reply. Unfortunately I'm having trouble making
complete sense of your instructions. I admit I'm new to Java and
Android (though I'm very experienced in C#.NET so I'm picking it up
pretty quickly).
Right now I have the following code in an activity:
Gallery gal = new Gallery(ctx);
gal.setLayoutParams(new
LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
gal.setAdapter(new HomeGalImgAdapter(ctx));
gal.setHorizontalFadingEdgeEnabled(true);
gal.setSpacing(0);
gal.setClickable(true);
gal.setFocusable(true);
// gal.setUnselectedAlpha(0.5f);
topPanel.addView(gal);
Along with this image adapter class:
public class HomeGalImgAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private Context myContext;
private int[] myImageIds = {
R.drawable.test128_add_to_folder,
R.drawable.test128_calendar,
R.drawable.test128_chart_pie,

public HomeGalImgAdapter(Context c) { this.myContext = c; }
public int getCount() { return this.myImageIds.length; }
public Object getItem(int position) { return position; }
public long getItemId(int position) { return position; }
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
ImageView i = new ImageView(this.myContext);
i.setImageResource(this.myImageIds[position]);
/* Image should be scaled as width/height are set. */
i.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
/* Set the Width/Height of the ImageView. */
i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(96, 96));
return i;
}
}
This works perfectly, and the gallery displays with a bunch of other
content. How do I implement your suggestion to have the not-in-focus
images be scaled smaller?
Also, I am trying to figure out how to set a TextView to act as a
caption whenever the picture changes focus, but at the moment as soon
as I start scrolling through the gallery and the first image loses
focus I am unable to get another image to take focus. Still trying to
figure that one out...
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Just override the method getChildStaticTransformation() in ViewGroup
and for the given child, set the transformation to a smaller scale.
Then in your constructors, make sure you set the flag
FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS in mGroupFlags:
mGroupFlags |= FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS;

How would I go about doing this? I'd really like to enable two pieces

Any chance we could get a code sample on what you suggest?

[android-developers] Re: Orientation changes simulation
Good points, hackbod. My app is mostly a port from an existing J2ME app that runs on many physical Nokia phones, so I guess I have a fair idea of the performance that I may expect because my CPU intensive parts are actually identical on J2ME and Android. If I may believe the rumors that the first Android phone will have a 500+ MHz processor, I would be surprised if Android did worse than what I get with J2ME, although there are still some Android-specific performance concerns. One is stemming from the inability to play byte arrays in Android (J2ME can do that), for which the current workaround is to write these arrays to file (slow flash on physical phones?) and play these file chunks with MediaPlayer. Another Android performance concern is that one can currently not use the byte arrays coming from PreviewCallback because of image format incompatibilities, while using PictureCallback is probably less efficient for small images. Both concerns I feel are more related to Android versus J2ME than to the physical phones, and may be addressed through issues 398 and 739. Of course you are right that I can only tell how badly these two factors limit performance after trying a physical Android phone - or waiting for feedback from Android phone users.

However, having to look at Tweets as normal text messages wouldn't be as comfortable as in a dedicated app. I'm having the same problem as the person who started this thread: While my app receives the tweets fine, it doesn't intercept them from the Messaging app. I understand why you don't want apps to have this ability, but isn't that why you list an app's permissions before installation (as shown in the marketplace screens)? I do plan on notifying the user just like the Messaging app, and receiving it in two apps would be more annoying than helpful. Do you have any suggestions on what I can do? It's noteworthy that it will only intercept Twitter messages (from number 40404), and anyone who uses Twitter via SMS (on any phone) knows how many texts they get from it.
