[android-developers] NIO select issue make program crash(also posted this in Internal group)

[Liu Huadong]

Hi Google expert and socket expert
 We meet a crash issue when using NIO selector.
 After check the stack we find it die in free(fdset_read);

Did you meet the same issue?
Do you have solution to avoid this issue ?
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks

I think I have a wrong understanding of SYSTEM and APPLICATIONS then :/
I always thought that (for example) the Contacts thingie is an
application and NOT a system component. But you are saying that these
methods and classes are NOT for application use.. but the Contacts
thingie uses them ergo the Contacts thingie is a system component and
not an Application that is equal to all other apps that everybody else
can create.

One of Androids main promises is that "Any app on the mobile device
can be replaced or extended -- even core components such as the dialer
or home." Now word-for-word this holds true - I can replace the
Contacts system component with a self-made Contacts application
(AFAIK.. correct me if I'm wrong)  but my replacement will always be
inferior to the Google created one because it has no access to the
various APIs that the Google created Contacts thingie has.

Sure, I understand why you don't give the same permissions to third
party apps like (for example) the Google marketplace has. (OK, in a
perfect world it SHOULD be the users choice what apps he wants to
install on his own phone.. and phone/OS manufacturers should not
restrict his/her choice based on what they think the user wants) But
currently you are using some harmless private APIs in your own
applications that ship with the device and denying access to the same
functionality/integration to other apps.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to start a flamewar or anything like
that. It's just that I want the same integration with the system as
Google created applications have (to a reasonable extent of course..
I'm not talking about functionality that can compromise security etc).
I hope that's not too much to ask.

Finally.. someone from Google saying that not all apps are created
equal. There are Google apps that can do whatever they want to do and
then there are third party apps that can only do what Google allows
them to do. And that's perfectly fine.. that's exactly how all other
phone OSs work. It's just that some people have currently the wrong
impression that you can create applications on Android that can do
*anything* and if they see an application bundled with the system,
they have the impression that they can have an app with the exact same
functionality/system integration.

It's good that you are trying to improve this and I'll hope that
sometime in the future all apps will truly be equal (:

[android-developers] Re: Android Source Code Now Available

If apps can't install other apps then I'm assuming that they can't 
uninstall them either, which leads to the question; How do third party 
app directories run their own kill-list?

Although the Android doesn't force users to use Marketplace can you why, 
from a usability and functionality perspective, Marketplace already has 
an unfair advantage that can only be levelled by using non-public APIs, 
and hence why all the time bundled apps such as Marketplace uses 
non-public APIs other apps will do so?

Does anybody knows if I can register a function to be called at every second

I already explained this in the rest of my previous reply.  Yes, many
of the current system applications use private APIs, because they have
been under development for a long time (well before the first SDK
release) in parallel with the platform, and it hasn't been possible to
keep them up on the official APIs as the platform was being cleaned
up.  (Not to mention that we didn't even have a way to link against an
SDK that didn't contain private symbols until the 1.0 release, so it
is very easy to accidentally use private APIs.)

There should be nothing the regular built-in apps do that you can't do
in your own apps, except for some carefully considered scenarios, such
as dialing an emergency phone number or directly installing an app
without user intervention.  If you find something an app is doing that
you truly can't do with the SDK (not that it is just using some
convenience class that is part of the system that isn't ready for
public use), then please file a bug about it.  Or hell, submit a patch
to make that feature available with a good SDK API.

It IS the choice of the user about what apps he wants to install.  If
you don't want to use the market, you can install them yourself with a
web browser or something else that invokes the system installer.  This
is a non-issue.

Any APIs that have been hidden in the SDK have been explicitly done so
because they will not be maintained in future releases.  For the one
specific instance I think you have brought up -- groups in contacts --
I am pretty sure this was a very last-minute addition, so we were able
to get the feature in to the 1.0 product but not in a way that could
be supported as part of the SDK.  Doing a product presents these kinds
of challenges: do we do the feature but not make it available in the
SDK, or just not do the feature at all?  I think it was much better to
have this feature for the product than not.  There is nothing
malicious about this, it's just a simple fact that making something
that can be supported forever is a public API is usually a lot more
effort than just implementing the feature for internal use.

We have NEVER said an application can do anything.  I have posted
numerous times to this list that applications can't directly install
applications without going through the system UI, as well as not being
able to place emergency calls, not being able to replace the in-call
screen or lock screen, etc.  The "

In the realm of app installation, security is really important and
tricky.  At this point, we think it is too dangerous to give a third
party application blanket access to install applications without the
user being involved.  That may change in the future, but for now that
is the way it is.  Yes, it means the Android Market app as a bundled
part of the system can do a little different UI flow than ones that
aren't bundled that way.  Sorry, that's just how it is for now.

For uninstalling apps without the user's intervention, this is
something that would be a little less scary to allow, but we didn't
have time to look into this for 1.0.

Oh and fwiw, what you are talking about here has nothing to do with
private APIs.  Yes, these APIs are not in the SDK, but even if they
were, you couldn't use them because they are protected by a permission
that you can only have granted to you if you are signed with the same
certificate as the core platform code.

Waaahh.. Since when has installing apps without user 
intervention been a good thing?,  and if it is a good thing why is it 
reserved for Googles apps?

I'm sure most app developers would LOVE to be able to install updates 
without having to force the user through the same permission set 
agreements each time the user gets a new version.

Friendly suggestion, read up on the lawsuits against Microsoft for not

It sounds like Android, at the moment, is heading for the same path.

[android-developers] Re: Tips for Orientation

[blindfold]

Thanks hackbod! I too had not been aware of this. I was about to
deploy
it, until I realized that blind users of my app could be
inadvertently
changing physical orientation, each time causing a soft reset of my
app
with associated hickups through the repeated calls to onCreate().
Guess
I should stick with the default keyboard controlled screen
orientation
even though screen appearance is preferably meant for landscape mode,
or in any case not make it sensor dependent even though that is cool.

[android-developers] Re: Android Source Code Now Available

[Ewan Grantham]

One thought on all this - if these are considered to be major issues (I'm
just wading into the waters here, so not familiar enough to give an
opinion), couldn't someone fork the project and then try to convince folks
they're better off running the "open" version of Android rather than the
Google version? Sort of like jailbreaking a PSP to add a 3rd party firmware
(as opposed to jailbreaking an iPhone which doesn't really replace the OS)?

[android-developers] Re: Android Source Code Now Available

[Al Sutton]

It's an option, but how many people would want to jailbreak an "open 
platform" just to use a third party application installer and/or updater?

My main concern is that Marketplace seems to be an obvious example of 
where a bundled app is getting an unfair advantage just because it's an 
approved application. This would also extend to diallers, from what 
hackbod has said it would appear that any dialler written by a third 
party won't be able to call emergency services, which is kind of crazy.

imho, on an open platform all apps should be equal.

[android-developers] GPRS configuration

[denismo]

Hi,

I remember on other phones there are some settings associated with
GPRS/packet data connections, such as gateway, number, may be login,
proxy etc., I hope it rings a bell. Is there something like this on
Android? Can it be read/modified using API?

Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: Does Android have a timeout callback?

[Charlie Collins]

Android has java.util.Timer and related.
http://code.google.com/android/reference/java/util/Timer.html

Use that on a background thread and call back into the UI via a
Handler and Message.  But be careful about updating every second, make
sure you really need to do that.

[android-developers] Getting source under Windows (from web interface).

[sahn0]

As we all know, Google released Android's source today.
But you can't get source if you are Windows user.
Luckily, there is a web interface (http://git.source.android.com),
which allows you to browse all files.
So I wrote very simple program that parses htmls, collects links and
downloads files.
Get it here: http://android4me.googlecode.com/files/GetWebGit.jar

Usage is very simple: GetWebGit  
E.g.: GetWebGit.jar platform/frameworks/base.git C:\Android\framework

You can also download any subfolder of any project. This requires more
work, though - go to the web interface, copy 'tree' folder's link and
supply it as  argument.
E.g.: GetWebGit.jar
http://git.source.android.com/?p=platform/build.git;a=tree;f=core/combo;h=2d6d494c1c5fad17496d32664d2ce36a9bd4e22e;hb=HEAD

I use a Handler for that, which is actually very easy. There's

[android-developers] Now the source is released what steps do we need to take to port to other hardware?

[Matt]

Now the source is released what steps do we need to take to port to
other hardware?

In particular I would like to port to the HTC prophet, but I know that
others will want to port to their own flavours of handset.

However I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the right
direction of a porting guide, or anything that I can use to get
started.

[android-developers] onSaveInstanceState / onRestoreInstanceState Called on First Application Run

[Mark Hansen]

I'm not sure if this is intended or not, but I had some compalints
from users about my application failing on the first run after the
install.

After wiping the data on the emulator I notice when I debug that
onRestoreInstanceState and onSaveInstanceState  are called.  This is
not the case when an application is already installed.

Can someone shed some light on why this happens?  Is it initializing
something, perhaps default values from my preferences?

[android-developers] Re: Camera.takePicture()

[Hong]

you need to call the Camera.takePicture(shutter, raw, jpeg)
each arg implements the corresponding callback (shutter callback,
picturecallback, picturecallback).

so if you need to get the raw data, implement a class with
picturecallback, and the onPictureTaken(byte[] raw...)
will be available for you.

but sounds like you try to get the video frame?  let me know if you succeed...

thanks

[android-developers] Re: Problem with MapView

[Matthias]

you need a valid Google Maps API key for your app as of today. Look
for the official announcement on the Android Developers blog.

[android-developers] Re: API for route calcualtions

[TjerkW]

Indeed this should be available, .. google wanted a 'open, extensible'
api. So they should add this feature to the api also!

such that I am only able to click the button in the list of items


For example

This doesn't seem to work (setting the hostnameverifier). I get a
ClassCastException on the line:

HttpsURLConnection uc = (HttpsURLConnection)
requestUrl.openConnection();

Here's the stacktrace:

Of course without making it a HttpsURLConnection, we can't set the
hostname verifier.  So it's a catch 22 situation.

Has anyone actually gotten this working?

[android-developers] Re: Browser based installation fails on G1

[nknize]

I'm having a similar issue, but I'm actually hosting the .apk files in
an Oracle database.  Here is a code snippet:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(apkFile), "application/" +
"vnd.android.package-archive");
MainMenuActivity.instance.startActivity(intent);

1.  The apk is successfully saved in /sdcard/download/ with the
original filename.
2. When startActivity(intent) is called.  A "Replace application"
dialog appears (when I have never once installed the application)
saying "The application you are installing will replace another
application."  And the following log is printed:

I/ActivityManager(   52): Starting activity: Intent
{ action=android.intent.action.VIEW data=file:///sdcard/download/
MiniSpaceWarAndroidApplication.apk type=app
lication/vnd.android.package-archive
comp={com.android.packageinstaller/
com.android.packageinstaller.PackageInstallerActivity} }
D/asset   (  313): failed to open Zip archive '/sdcard/download/
MiniSpaceWarAndroidApplication.apk'

3. When the user selects "ok", the InstallAppConfirmation screen comes
up and the following log is printed:

I/ActivityManager(   52): Starting activity: Intent { data=file:///
data/data/com.android.packageinstaller/files/
MiniSpaceWarAndroidApplication.apk comp={com.and

I/ActivityManager(   52): Displayed activity

4. When the user selects "Install", "Application install unsuccessful"
is displayed and the following log is printed:

3. Is this method of installing non market apps allowed?

Thanks for all of the help!

[android-developers] quick question on camera preview format

[Jason Proctor]

well, ffmpeg can decode it, so it *is* a real format. but i'm trying 
to decode a little of it myself for nefarious purposes, and ffmpeg is 
a touch difficult to read ;-) so i was hoping someone here knew the 
skinny.

[android-developers] Re: Now the source is released what steps do we need to take to port to other hardware?

[Andrew Stadler]

Along with the open source release, some new mailing lists have been
set up which are targeted for questions like this.  Take a look at
.

In particular, you may want to subscribe to android-porting.

This list (android-developers) is described as "Discuss developing
Android applications using the Android framework. Get help with
troubleshooting apps, advice on implementation, and strategies for
improving your app's speed and user experience."

Good luck!

[android-developers] Re: Getting GPS Location in Android 1.0 SDK

[Matthias]

Hi,

no, it still doesn't work as expected. It only works when going
through telnet and sending manual fixes using the geo command, but it
never works via ADB and Eclipse GUI. Bummer. I run Linux though, and I
have seen it working on my friend's Windows machine. Is that feature
platform dependent by any chance?

[android-developers] Re: quick question on camera preview format

[blindfold]

I noticed that data.length in the callback gave twice the number of
pixels, implying a 16 bits per pixel encoding as was discussed at

Does ffmpeg not have some properties dialog or something such that

[android-developers] quick question on camera preview format

[Jason Proctor]

yes, but the issue is whether the encoding is chunky or planar, and 
whether the chrominence values are signed. the "SP" on the end of the 
format implies both, but my decoder isn't having much luck either way.

ffmpeg is a command line program. i'm trucking through the source, 
but some of it reads a little like Martian :-)

thanks for the response. it's no big deal, i can keep trucking. i 
hoped someone on the 'droid team could provide a quick authoritative 
answer.

[android-developers] MediaPlayer output monochrome video

[muddog]

Hi

I'm porting Android 1.0 to freescale mx31 3stack board.
And now the MediaPlayer is ready to play 3gp file, but it played video
with monochrome output, no colors at all.
I have tried many 3gp file, got the same result. But the video is
played well on emulator.

What's the problem?
Anybody has met that before?

The following is DispalySurface info:

[android-developers] Can't debug apps on G1

[bhines]

I can't seem to debug on the G1. "Run' works fine, but i can't get any
debugger to connect. The app just hangs on 'Waiting for Debugger"

The emulator works fine.

This is on OS X 10.5.5 with Eclipse SDK 3.4.1. (standard install)

The "Ignoring DDM send req " from dalvikvm looks suspicious to me.
USB debugging is ON on the phone, and this affects all android apps...
any ideas?

success, as well as searched the archives.

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to use Androids location based services and I was

using m5 but nothing for m9 or release 1.0.  Can someone help me?

[android-developers] Intent for sending email

[dbradby]

Hi,

I want to be able to send an email in my application, however I'm not
interested in the user entering their mail details/SMTP server. I
would like to forward the user off to another application that handles
email/contact selection.

It seems I should be able to use the Intent.ACTION_SEND.

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "email text");
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Chooser 
Title:"));

But the emulator tells me "No applications can perform this action."

Will the G1 with an email client and GMail potentially handle this
intent correctly?

Is it possible to get the GMail app installed on the emulator?

Thanks!

Daniel

[android-developers] Android email client

[solid]

I just got my brand new G1 and I was setting up my email client for my
server.  I am using imaps (port 993) with a self signed cert.
Actually it is signed by startcom (http://www.startcom.org/).
Whenever I set the configs, I get the Not trusted certificate error.
Is there a way to install a new trusted authority?  Or is there a way
to accept a certificate for all of android?  What is the timeline on
fixing the email client.

[android-developers] Re: ADB via USB

I'm in the same boat as the OP. Here are details:

On the G1, I have "USB debugging" and "Stay awake" both checked. I also 
have the "Use for USB storage" option unchecked, though I've tried it 
both ways.

I plug the G1 into my Ubuntu 8.04 machine via a powered USB hub, and it 
is recognized:

Oct 22 12:07:51 nc8000 kernel: [1073867.494452] usb 4-1.4.3: new high 
speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 19

Oct 22 12:07:57 nc8000 kernel: [1073876.346023] sd 9:0:0:0: Attached 
scsi generic sg3 type 0

But I get no love from adb:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ adb devices
List of devices attached
emulator-5554   device

It shows my running emulator instance and nothing else.

If I close up the emulator and try the steps all over again:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ adb devices
List of devices attached

What's curious is that I don't get "no device" per the instructions. I 
also see no sign of it via lspci -v or lspci -vv.

[android-developers] DDMS & 64bit Windows

[Chris A]

Hello folks,

I'm on Windows Vista Business x64, and have trouble running DDMS.bat
from the 1.0 r1 release of the Android SDK. I get the following
Exception:

05:23 E/ddms: shutting down due to uncaught exception
05:23 E/ddms: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\Users\Chris\Projects
\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r1\tools\lib\swt-win32-3236.dll: Can't load
IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform
at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method)

198)
at com.android.ddms.PrefsDialog.init(PrefsDialog.java:140)
at com.android.ddms.Main.main(Main.java:74)

Judging from the exception I've noticed two things: It appears this is
x32 only and there isn't anything available for x64, and I'm screwed
until there is an offering for x86. I have two computers which are
both running different versions of Windows Vista x64 and this will
prevent me from using DDMS, and doing any direct debugging on my phone
from my computer.

Is there any chance that an x64 version will be included in the
future, or am I resulted to developing strictly emulator and figuring
out some magical process for uploading applications to my phone (not
that DDMS appears to do this, but I have a feeling it might)?

[android-developers] Announce Bookworm Android

[pskink]

hi,

i just finished first stage of my first android app - Bookworm
Android.

it is dictionary app with fast entry access thanks to T9 input method.

dictionaries have built-in btree index so even huge ones (~1 million
entries) can be searched with up to five phisical disk reads.

as i said this is the first stage (finished data access) and still ui
is not in the final form so i'd happy to receive any suggestions when
it comes to ui part.

for more info (wiki help, .apk and sample dictionaries) please refer
to:

http://code.google.com/p/android-bookworm

files are under Downloads tab

thanks,

It's not a good thing.  It's just that the Android Market client that
is shipped with the phone makes sure to take care of this before the
app is downloaded.

No, you wouldn't, and Market doesn't do that either.  That would be
bad, because the user may not be aware of the previous permissions,
and the app may use new permissions.

And this one good reason why, at least for now, not allowing third
party apps to directly install without going through the system UI is
a good thing, because this is a -huge- opportunity for security
problems that mis-designed or buggy applications can open up.

I agree that not being able to do emergency phone calls is
unfortunate, but there was a lot of concern about that from a security
perspective and the potential for abuse, so that is what we have.

One more time: I have posted on multiple occasions here the few things
I know of that third party apps can't do for 1.0, due to schedule
limitations for the work required or basic security reasons, so this
isn't something that has been hidden.  If you look at what is limited,
it is really rather small, in fact I think we have hit pretty much all
of them.  For a 1.0 release I am quite happy with what we have, and in
a -lot- of places we have managed to push how open things are to a
significant degree.  This of course isn't the end of things, and we'll
continue to evolve as we see what actually happens with devices out
there.

[android-developers] R.java is never, ever, ever, ever, ever regenerated

[misbell]

I have tried everything, including the laughable suggestion of
restarting Eclipse, which of course didn't work.

There is nothing wrong with my manifest file.

The app worked perfectly until I changed it.

Then I changed added a new PNG and changed the name in the main.xml
file.

After that nothing worked because the R,java file was not updated.

Build Automatically is turned on.

using Eclipse Ganymede. Runs every demo Android app perfectly.

I mean, you have got to be kidding me. There is NO WAY to just press a
button, issue a command and regenerate the R.java file?

LOL LOL LOL What a waste of my freaking morning. What a complete and
utter waste of several hours of my time. I am laughing because I am so
pi$$ed off I can't even think of something sarcastic enough to say.

Three months of smooth iPhone development and now I am stuck having to
work with this gimrackety piece of junk.

Ok, now that I've ranted, any solutions?

OPEN Repo and look at the link provided.

here's the new command to run repo

$ curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo >~/bin/repo

Than the correct data will be there.

go into your "mydroid" directory and run the command they listed.

$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git

that'll start the download of the files.

finally, sync it.

$ repo sync

that's it, everything's in the mydroid directory.

[android-developers] Re: If delete R.java, how how can recover it?

[misbell]

No one answered this question.

Build Automatically is checked in Eclipse. Still doesn't regenerate
R.java. (Ganymede).

Also, whenit existed, I made a change to main.xml, r.java was NOT
regenerated.

There is nothing whatsoever wrong with my manifest file. The app ran
perfectly before I dared to alter the XML.

This is flakey beyond belief.

[android-developers] Re: Android Source Code Now Available

[Al Sutton]

It's not necessarily what hasn't been released in documentation/source 
form, it's the measures which could be seen as steps taken to 
deliberately ensure that competitors can't access the same functionality 
as is available to approved applications which have been signed by the 
platform certificate.

 From what you've said it is impossible for anyone else to deliver an 
updater which will allow the user to install an updated version of the 
application without having to go through the system UI (Does Marketplace 
have to do that?) . It would be impossible for a third party to write a 
comprehensive dialling interface because it would be blocked from making 
emergency services calls (Is the shipped dialler blocked from doing 
that?). 

It took a lot of complaints to get the anti-trust suits started, and 
they were all based around functionality which wasn't available to third 
parties, isn't that what you've just said Android has?

But here is a question for all you developers like us who are hoping
to make some revenue off months of hard work.

Does the API currently support a way to make our applications "trial
software"? That is, making them free until "March 1st" or some other
date, at which time the user will have to pay?

Obviously getting on the phone and receiving user reviews is extremely
important, but giving away all of our hard work "just seems wrong". I
have read that over 1 million people have pre-ordered the phone, that
is a lot of free software giveaways..

What is everyone else doing? Waiting? Sayhing the heck with it and
deploying? Just looking for some advice.

Hi

I have downloaded the Android source code. How do we add all the
source code files to an Android project in Eclipse so that we can
debug the code ?

[android-developers] Re: Can't debug apps on G1

[bhines]

Indeed I did not.. that isn't mentioned in the docs. :)

http://code.google.com/android/intro/develop-and-debug.html

A search for 'debuggable' on the site does not find any mention of the
property other than reference materials (and who reads every single
API reference page?)

[android-developers] Quick notes on getting G1 and adb goign

[Mark Murphy]

Many thanks to zhobbs and the guys on IRC!

If you're having problems getting G1 and adb behaving on Linux, kill off 
the running adb process (sudo pkill adb, or possibly adb kill-server -- 
didn't try that one). That cleared things up -- adb devices showed the 
device, and adb install installed the app.

At this point, if you have no emulator running, adb commands (e.g., adb 
install) should route to the device. If you have an emulator running, 
use the -s switch to route the command to the appropriate device (e.g., 
adb -s deviceidhere shell). In the example, deviceidhere is the 
identifier listed via adb devices.

But if they've already granted the permissions to the app surely they 
should only be asked about new permissions needed for the new version 
(i.e. only having to approve a subset of permissions for an upgrade and 
the full permission set for a new install ). Having to re-approve all 
permissions for an application that the user has already approved them 
for doesn't sound all that user friendly to me.

[android-developers] Re: Determining size of SD Card?

[Alex B]

This is indeed a significant issue. We should be able to check for
space availability -- this is one important source of error
information that we could be passing on to the user.

Supposedly the media is mounted:
android.os.Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals("mounted")

Supposedly I can write to the direcotry:
sampleDir.canWrite()

So I try to create a file:
mSampleFile = File.createTempFile(SAMPLE_PREFIX, SAMPLE_EXTENSION,
sampleDir);

But get this uninsightful IO error:
java.io.IOException: Cannot create: /sdcard/x28335.amr

So, one extra check could be for space -- but currently this seems to
be an API limitation.

[android-developers] Re: R.java is never, ever, ever, ever, ever regenerated

[Robert Green]

I've had issues with mine as well and what I've ended up doing is
closing eclipse, deleting the file from the FS, firing up eclipse
again, re-creating a blank R.java, then importing one resource and it
magically kicks back in and repopulates the whole thing.

I think it's a little buggy and they should probably try to iron that
out.

[android-developers] Re: Android Source Code Now Available

[tomgibara]

Al,

Android requires three (extrinsic) things: users, carriers and
developers. Any particular feature/restriction may be independently
regarded as good or bad by the members of these three groups.

Seeing particular security related restrictions only within the narrow
context of what suits developers and some users, ignores the
importance of carriers in cementing Android as a widely deployed
mobile platform.

Historically, for reasons I'm not knowledgeable enough to describe,
carriers have wielded a great deal of power over the devices and
applications that operate on their networks and as a consequence
developers are rightly wary of any constraints put on their
applications.

Nevertheless, it's difficult to see Android as anything but a huge
leap forward in terms of open mobile application development;
criticisms over the simplifications used to describe elements of this
hugely complex technology, don't change that.

Tom.

[android-developers] Simulate key press action.

[BeeScreen]

Hi,
I am new to Android dev.
Just been asked to research if I can simulate the key press action.
Boss wants me to write a program that can press the phone keys instead
of me
pressing them. Is this possible in Android. Please point me to any
clues.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Problems Testing an Installation...

[Bill Zimmerly]

I was on the T-Mobile G1 Forum when a fellow who owned a G1 posted a
message seeking a Notepad Application for the G1. (BTW, Scanning the
topics there indicate that there is crying need for one on the G1.)

http://forums.t-mobile.com/tmbl/board/message?board.id=87&thread.id=2490

Well, I used Eclipse to package the Notepad application and posted it
to my webite. Then I posted a message inviting him and others to
download it and test it out on their G1s.

As you can see from the messages exchanged, when they try to install
it on their G1s, it seems to demand access to everything. (Not good.)
I used the default Android Manifest when I built the package.

Then, I try to download and install the Application myself on the
Emulator and it complained that this CAN'T BE DONE

Is there a way to resolve this problem? (There must be.)

A sincere thanks to any of the Google Android experts who can help me
with this.

Both the Market and the system UI installer ask for all permissions
again.  There is no reason they both can't be changed to do something
different (in fact they share a lot of the same code).

Market and a few other things like the in-call screen are in a very
gray area between "system code" and "application code".

As far as loading over USB from your machine to your phone, I don't know.
 THat would be great as an extension to Eclipse - perhaps as an option to
the 'Export' menu (deploy to phone...)
But from what I'm reading, the easiest way is to post it to a web server and
download it to your phone.

Also it is very important to keep in mind that it ignores the
importance of -most- users as well.  All through the design of
Android, we have had to ask over and over again how open we can make
things for developers while at the same time protecting users who
can't and shouldn't need to care much about how to keep their phone
secure.  For example, this is the incentive behind requiring that the
user explicitly enable side-loading of applications before they can
download things directly from a web page.

We have ideas for how to improve many of these things in the future,
but what is in 1.0 is what we had time to do and what we though were
the best overall choices for all involved.

[android-developers] Re: Loading application to actual device through Eclipse?

[Romain Guy]

You can deploy your application to your phone using the Android
Eclipse plugin. All you need is the phone plugged in USB (make sure
you have enabled USB debugging in Settings > Applications >
Development.) When you "run" your application, it will send it to the
phone, or ask you what target you want if you already have an emulator
running.

[android-developers] Re: Simulate key press action.

[Declan Shanaghy]

The monkey should be able to help here!
http://code.google.com/android/reference/monkey.html

It is configurable but im not sure if it meets your needs 100%.
You could enhance it, but at the very least you can copy what it does into
an app of your own.


Ah, you just reminded me of good the ole Code Monkey song!  :-D

Hi,
I am new to Android dev.
Just been asked to research if I can simulate the key press action.
Boss wants me to write a program that can press the phone keys instead
of me
pressing them. Is this possible in Android. Please point me to any
clues.
Thanks in advance.

Regards
Beescreen

I have just found out how, there is a new driver out that you will
need to use before Eclipse can see your device.. more info is located
at this link

[android-developers] Re: OAuth, HttpClient, Android 1.0

[Sean Sullivan]

As of today (October 22nd), the OAuth Java library now supports
HttpClient 4 and Android.

You'll need to checkout the trunk code from SVN and build the code
yourself.

   http://code.google.com/p/oauth/source/checkout

To use the OAuth library on Android, use the classes in the
net.oauth.client.httpclient4 package.

The driver is for Windows only. Settings are in the Menu on the home screen.

[android-developers] Re: Padding Not Working in XML but does in Java

[cyntacks]

Hi everyone, just wanted to give this a bump. Anyone have this
problem? I really would like to include the padding in the XML so that
the correct padding is loaded with the correct layout auto-magically.
But without this I have to have this in the source
