[android-developers] Re: Yet another HTTPS problem with HttpClient in Android SDK v1.0r1
Yes that's what I see everywhere. but, i can't change my API or
cartificate...
So I'm destine to search search solution...
I try to put a certificate in keystore, and to load it from my app.
but i have an IOexception : Wrong verion of Key Store.
I really don't understand.
Source :
KeyStore trustStore =
KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());//
KeyStore.getDefaultType()
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File(data/data/
com.alu.myic.android/my.trustore3));
try {
trustStore.load(in, coucou.toCharArray());
} finally {
in.close();
}
SSLSocketFactory socketFactory = new SSLSocketFactory(trustStore);
SchemeRegistry registry = new SchemeRegistry();
registry.register(new Scheme(https, socketFactory, 443));

Amen! Moreover, there are important and undocumented differences between emulator and G1 with respect to camera based image processing. I think that currently every Android developer who is using the camera for input is heavily frustrated, while the Android Team has not given any hint of when the various camera related problems will be fixed.

[android-developers] Re: Improved support for camera on Android emulator.
BTW Mark, since you are with Qualcomm, you should be able to find out more about the QualcommCameraHardware messages that we see in G1 crash logs? It is only most recently that I learnt that camera preview on the T-Mobile G1 uses some YUV 411 encoding instead of the emulators single supported format which is a YUV 422 variant. These kinds of surprises are killing for our camera based apps, and as a result also killing for our developer reputation with end users (they blame us for broken apps). My own camera app runs fine on the emulator but breaks and shows scrambled previews on the G1, at least in part due to this new find about the undocumented use of an 411 encoding that I still need to account for by writing a dedicated preview decoder. Who is sitting on this kind of vital developer information? Is it Google, T-Mobile or Qualcomm? More about reporting about the ongoing struggle with the G1 QualcommCameraHardware at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1129 and at http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/6e070855723aede0/ Any help is appreciated!

Without any real detail I'm sure we've got no idea what you're doing. Perhaps you should be watching the debug log (run 'adb logcat') to see where your application crashes. As for starting one activity from another... well, read the API docs on 'Activity' - see 'startActivity()' and the other related methods. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Getting GPS Location Crashes
I've posted with no help, please help me out. I am trying to figure out how to get the GPS location of my device. However, when I use the code below (see CODE TO GET LOCATION) my Android application crashes. I am developing on the G1 phone. If I change the provider to network instead of gps, it works perfectly fine. Here is the code I am using: ** ANDROID MANIFEST PERMISSIONS ** uses-permission android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION / uses-permission android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_GPS / uses-permission android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION / uses-permission android:name=android:permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION / ** CODE TO GET LOCATION ** LocationManager lM = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); LocationProvider lP = lM.getProvider(gps); Location loc = lM.getLastKnownLocation(lP.getName()); Do I have to somehow tell the GPS to try to get a fix? If so, how do I go about that? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with onActivityResult
The proper way to do this is to provide an int value for requestCode
in startActivity. Then in OnActivityResult you have a
switch(requestCode) and within each case you have a switch for
resultCode. You seem to be confusing requestCode and resultCode.
Your requestCode should probably be something like BUS_ACTIVITY that
you give an int value,
then you have
bus = new Intent(AndTeste.this, Buscador.class);
startActivityForResult(bus,BUS_ACTIVITY);
.
Intent data) {
// See which child activity is calling us back.
switch(requestCode){
case BUS_ACTIVITY:
switch (resultCode) {
case RESULT_OK:
setTitle(Result Ok);
default:
break;
}
break;
}
or something along those lines. I think there's plenty of examples in
the api demos.

[android-developers] Re: Improved support for camera on Android emulator.
It seems everyone is having simular problems with the limited camera support as well as the lack of emulator support for camera input. I'm more on the application development side, but since this is such a serious problem I'll see if I can talk to the hardware people here. I'll see if we can get any feedbackm from the Google team as well. I'll post back here as I find out more information. Many have come to the same conclusion about the currrent state of camera support, in that it isn't sufficient for serious application development yet, which is currently my problem also. I'll do everything I can to got more information on the camera issues, without this issue resolved it will be difficult for Android to be a competitive platform.

These kinds of surprises are killing for our camera based apps, and as a result also killing for our developer reputation with end users (they blame us for broken apps). My own camera app runs fine on the emulator but breaks and shows scrambled previews on the G1, at least in part due to this new find about the undocumented use of an 411 encoding that I still need to account for by writing a dedicated preview decoder.

In this case if the GPS service does not have a fix or is switched

Make sure GPS location provider is enabled on the phone settings.

[android-developers] Why must WebView display local files via a ContentProvider?
In case you hadn't heard, WebView won't display local files directly via loadUrl(file://YOUR_PATH/file.html). All the solutions create a ContentProvider to access the local files and send them to a WebView using ContentProvider.openFile(). This approach seems less secure than simply sending my locally created application files files directly to WebView. My app creates and stores the files in my sandboxed local file directory so they should be inaccessible to anyone and thus secure. I know the standard response for why this is: That WebView's access to local files would be insecure. But why is it safer to wrap files into a ContentProvider and then feed them to WebView when the purpose of a ContentProviders is mostly to share content between apps.. .which I won't be doing? So my questions: 1) What was wrong with the local file solution for WebView.loadUrl(). 2) Why is it safer to wrap my local files into a ContentProvider?

There are probably several ways to handle this but the first that comes to my mind is: 1) The background thread should not be trying to manipulate views directly. Have it send a 'cancel' message to a handler in one of your UI classes (like the main activity). The UI class can then take the appropriate action to cancel the dialog. 2) If orientation can change while you have the dialog up (which it can), then you need to save that state when the activity is stopped and have your restart handler take care of recreating the dialog and displaying it when the activity is restarted (after orientation change). Your message handler should then take the cancel message from the background thread and dismiss the dialog if it exists.

It's not the same, you can't steal it from everyone. This only
happens when the currently focused app doesn't do anything special
with the phone key. The home key, in contrast, can not be handled by
the foreground app -- it always starts the home activity.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL_BUTTON);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
getContext().startActivity(intent);
}
So you can write an activity that implements that action. You can -
not- however generally intercept the green key: if the app handles it
yourself (such as pressing the green key while highlighting a phone
number to place a call) you won't run.

Much like the app picker behaves when multiple apps are registered
for an

I dont know how the internals of how the off hook button works but
couldnt
it broadcast an Intent to go off hook which then can be handled
like
any
other intent. To avoid the annoying situation of having to choose an
app
every time a changeable default could be setup.
(Like how RingDroid replaces the default ringtone picker)

[android-developers] Need help using hat to track down memory usage
Hello, While perusing the source code, came across a shell function that envsetup.sh defines called runhat. Judging by the parameters, etc., to this function, it allows one to get a heap-dump for a given application. This dump can then be analyzed by the tools hat and jhat. Has anyone had any luck running these tools? I tried earlier today and consistently get an error message Started HTTP server on port 7000 Reading from /tmp/t.hat... java.io.IOException: Version string not recognized at byte 17 at hat.parser.HprofReader.readVersionHeader(HprofReader.java:325) at hat.parser.HprofReader.read(HprofReader.java:169) at hat.parser.Reader.readFile(Reader.java:90) at hat.Main.main(Main.java:149) I have tried jhat (built into Java SE 6.0) as well as hat (downloaded from https://hat.dev.java.net/).

[android-developers] removing preference file and its implication
Hi, I noticed an interesting but unexpected behaviour with preference processing in Android. Here’s what I’m trying to do. My app needs to perform some specific tasks when it is launched for the first time after installation. I use an element named “firstLaunch” for this purpose. I set its value to false in the first launch so that subsequent launches will see it properly. Here’s the piece of code: package com.example; SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences(pref, MODE_PRIVATE); isFirstTimeLaunch = prefs.getBoolean(firstLaunch, true); Log.d(readPreferences, read first time launch value: + isFirstTimeLaunch); SharedPreferences.Editor editorPrefs = prefs.edit(); editorPrefs.putBoolean(firstLaunch, false); editorPrefs.commit(); So far so good. Everything works as expected. However, I wanted to test its behavior when the preference file is removed. I removed the file '/data/data/com.example/shared_prefs/pref.xml' and relaunched the app within the emulator. To my surprise I found that my technique fails -- the variable 'isFirstTimeLaunch' will be false, even if I remove the preferences file.I repeated removing and launching the app many times and I see the same result every time. However, if I run the program from within Eclise IDE or if I do an 'adb install' from the shell, things work as expected.Obviously these methods clear the app data. Isn't simply removing the preference file same as removing data since my app doesn't use anything else? Am I missing something here? Can someone explain what's wrong with my program?

There are probably several ways to handle this but the first that comes to my mind is: 1) The background thread should not be trying to manipulate views directly. Have it send a 'cancel' message to a handler in one of your UI classes (like the main activity). The UI class can then take the appropriate action to cancel the dialog. 2) If orientation can change while you have the dialog up (which it can), then you need to save that state when the activity is stopped and have your restart handler take care of recreating the dialog and displaying it when the activity is restarted (after orientation change). Your message handler should then take the cancel message from the background thread and dismiss the dialog if it exists.

[android-developers] File permission about MediaPlayer
Code first:
InputStream is = ;//some mixed audio
byte buf[] = new byte[1024];
System.out.println(tempDir.getAbsolutePath());
File temp = File.createTempFile(aaa, .mp3,
this.getCacheDir());
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(temp);
do {
int numread = is.read(buf);
if (numread = 0)
break;
out.write(buf, 0, numread);
} while (true);
out.flush();
out.close();
MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer();
mp.setDataSource(temp.getAbsolutePath());
mp.prepare();
mp.start();
I want to make some audio fragments to one audio file, and
MediaPlayer could not play with byte or stream, so I have to use
tempfile.
upper code would: 11-05 05:47:37.512: WARN/System.err(3934):
java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0xFFFC.
But, if I copy the temp file aaa.mp3 out by File Explore, and copy
it into cache directory, the aaa.mp3 could be played.
The temp file created by app in linux is : -rw--- app_18
app_18 2868352 2008-11-05 03:54 aaa13710.mp3
The file copyed into cache is : -rw-rw-rw- root root
2868352 2008-11-05 04:20 aaa13710.mp3
The fiile copyed into sdcard is:rw-rw- system system
2868352 2008-11-05 05:12 aaa13710.mp3
so, I guess MediaPlayer play audio files with root account.
Although creating temp file into sdcard is one solution, but i don't
think it is a good method for slow efficiency. MediaPlay should be
able to play with stream or byte, and it is a strange thing that I
could create an audio file but play it.
I saw other developers post this error, google wishes developer
create temp files into sdcard, in fact, creating temp file into sdcard
cann't solve anything.

[android-developers] Access assets from within ParcelFileDescriptor / ContentProvider
Hi together, Since a few days we are struggling with accessing asset files. Pretty early I found out that accessing assets is not directly possible with the file:/// Uri. Now my colleague wrote a ContentProvider class. Within the ParcelFileDescriptor from the ContentProvider we use the openFile method to directly access a css file when the pfd is called from within HTML with the content:// scheme. Unfortunately, the css had no effect on the HTML and I found out with File.exists() that this file does not exist under file:/// android_asset/ + filename, although the file is obviously under assets/Resources in my package exlplorer. My presentiment is that it's all just a minor misuse of URI paths. Thanks in Advance for any help.

Hi Jason,
Thanks a lot for your answer.

Again, thank you

Yup, the returning of false was a bug and you'll find it fixed in a future

Re: storing credentials. Is there any way you can get by without storing
the actual password? Perhaps use the password to get some token from the
service? If you absolutely have to store the password, I'd suggest at least
encrypting it with a key that's hard coded in your app (yes, this is still
not secure, but at least it won't be stored plaintext).

The class you're looking for, android.provider.Telephony, is a perfect example of the difference. Yes, as pointed out, you can find it in the open source release and use it to better understand the workings of the platform. No, it *does not* appear in the SDK, and this means you should not try to use it from your applications. If you look carefully at the .java file in the open source release, you'll notice that the class documentation includes the annotation @hide. This means it will not appear in the SDK, either as a class you can compile against, or Javadoc. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Customizing builtin applications

I want to be able to create and distribute an application that will
'patch' the built-in Contacts application - i.e. augment its
functionality in a certain way. I would imagine that a programmable

achievable.
Don't confuse a platform with an application. Android is a programmable
extensible platform. That doesn't necessarily imply that the Contacts
application -- which is an Android application like any other Android
application -- necessarily takes advantage of such capabilities.
For example, Android has hooks to allow one to declare activities that
can appear in another application's menu...if said other application is
written to look for such activities. I have no idea if Contacts is or is
not written that way.
So if the Contacts were an Emacs package, I would have added my custom
function to, say, 'android-contacts-pre-call-hook' to do some
processing on a phone number before a call is placed.
Android tends to be somewhat more coarse-grained than that and puts more
emphasis on inbound hooks than outbound ones, in part because it is
somewhat more content-focused than function-focused.
Case in point: the WikiNotes sample application. WikiNotes is set up
such that you can either launch the main app or launch a specific page
or even drive straight to editing a specific page, all just via the
public API in the form of accepted Intents. However, you can't replace
the WikiNotes editor widget from some other app, or decide that you want
to support {{{text}}} as preformatted text, or something like that,
because WikiNotes (AFAIK) doesn't try asking around for third-party
assistance in editing or formatting the actual wikitext.
An example of
what I would perform in such a hook would be, to check if the friend
is online on gtalk and place call only if she is not.
It is conceivable that the Contacts app is written in a way that you can
intercept the place-a-call action and handle it yourself if the friend
is available on IM. Android has the means to support such things. That
does not mean Contacts was written to use it.

[android-developers] TextView.SavedState example?
I would like to use onSaveInstanceState/onRestoreInstanceState in my class that extends TextView, but I don't see how to do it. TextView's implementation of onSaveInstanceState returns null, I couldn't find a way of instantiating a TextView.SavedState, and onRestoreState, which must be called, throws a ClassCastException if you call it with something other than a TextView.SavedState. There must be a simple way to use this functionality - the api docs mention this functionality explicitly: http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/view/View.html#onSaveInstanceState() Some examples of things you may store here: the current cursor position in a text view... --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Craig wrote: TextView's implementation of onSaveInstanceState returns null You're subclassing it, so you should be able to return whatever Parcelable you want. If, in some future Android implementation, the superclass returns something, you'll need to tuck that within your Parcelable as well. I couldn't find a way of instantiating a TextView.SavedState Don't do that. Return a Parcelable of your choosing. and onRestoreState, which must be called, throws a ClassCastException if you call it with something other than a TextView.SavedState. You can't get a ClassCastException on null. Since you got null from TextView#onSaveInstanceState(), you should be passing null to onRestoreInstanceState(), I would imagine. These are educated guesses -- I haven't used View-level save/restore instance state, only at the activity level. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.4 Published! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Can't return View derived class for BaseExpandableListAdapter? (used to work)
Hi Mark,
The problem is when you do:
mcv.setLayoutParams(new
LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
A view's layout parameters should be the type its parent expects to see
(because those parameters are really used for the layout (parent) to store
metadata for that child). So, in this case, this mcv view wlil eventually
go into a ListView, but you're saying to use LinearLayout.LayoutParams.
Instead, try using ListView.LayoutParams.

Dear Hackbod, Sorry for being a bit off with the terminology but Android is new to me and to most other developers as well. What I asked for, was how the thing you have called the drawer could be reused. I.e. I want to put a folder in the main drawer (must it be app rather?) and when hitting that open a new drawer only containing my main apps. I don't like the APIDemos style of drawer (list) and I don't want to write one myself. Regarding the Java resources and Android, there is quite a bunch of libraries that depend on local resources and there is no point (or reason) to change them to use the Android resource scheme which is more suitable for apps. In my own work, I store XML Schema files together with the Java objects that serialize and de-serialize instance documents. Please do not remove this capability!

It seems so by looking at APIExamples but would it be possible to host applications in a own-defined tools window (I.e. like where apps seem to be installed)? The docs are rather hard to decipher and there are almost no illustrations either Sorry, I don't really understand what you are asking for. You can publish multiple main launcher activities from an .apk, if you want. Otherwise... application is a pretty nebulous term on android (seehttp://code.google.com/android/intro/appmodel.html) so you'll need to be more specific abotu waht you want. BTW, there are no problems hosting resources inlibrariesin Android, the Java standard getResorceAsStream works as expected. We don't use Java style resources for Android. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Change active AlarmManager event
Well you can unschedule the old alarm and schedule a new one.

I like to change both the time for next event and the intervals between repeats. Is it possible to do it inside the onReceive of the BroadcastReceiver? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Thread Question
http://code.google.com/android/intro/appmodel.html The last section is on threads, though it's strongly recommended you read the whole thing.

Instead, consider using a Handler to post a message back to the main thread when the background thread has finished its work.
