[android-developers] Contacts insertion failure

2008-12-08 Thread Abraham

HI all,

I had a query regarding the behavior of insert method when contact
insertion failure occures.

Assume that the phone memory is full & no more contacts can be added
to the phone. While a user attempts to insert a contact into People &
Phones table in this scanrio what would be the URI that would be
returned. How can one determine from the URI returned whether the
contact was added successfully or not.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?

2008-12-08 Thread Dianne Hackborn
Btw, you can probably get away with doing this with little to no platform
changes at all, by defining an intent protocol that is similar to the
existing one but doesn't require presenting a UI.  There are still some
important security, user interaction, and management issues that would need
to be addressed though, such as what to do with multiple e-mail apps with
multiple accounts.

Anyway, the point is that this is an open source project.  You aren't
dependent on Google for things, you don't have to sit here begging for
people to give you features you want, if you feel strongly about something
you can make it happen.

If you want a feature like this, feel free to look at submitting a patch to
the platform.  You'll want to talk with people in the platform group about
the security implications of doing so, so we can have a patch that we are
comfortable with.  This is probably way down on the priority list for the
core platform work, so I doubt a feature like it would be added without
someone who wants it coming in and making it happen.

Also, generally speaking, you can use address 0.0.0.0 to accept connections
from any network interface without having to worry about the difference
between the GSM and Wifi channels

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?

2008-12-08 Thread Jay-andro

Diane
I accept (with a heavy heart :-( that Google is not interested in
providing for this, but I do believe it is a valid requirement.

First let me clarify that I have no interest in accessing the user's
personal account information from my app. I would ideally like an
android api that protects this info and just allows my app to invoke a
sendmail method with subject, body etc. Under the covers the api would
access the personal account credentials of so it can connect to the
smtp server.

Second, consider the following use cases where this requirement comes
up:
- A salesforce phone app is set up to always send an email to the
sales supervisor when a customer support person updates a customer
ticket. The email is automatic and informational
- A service rep (cable guy) app is set up to automatically email the
service supervisor, when a rep leaves the location of his/her last
service order.
- A game is set up to automatically email the highest score to all
members of a game-group
In all cases, the app would advertise the auto-email as a feature,
that the user can opt into or out of.

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer and onSaveInstanceState?

2008-12-08 Thread Dianne Hackborn
You can use Activity.onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() to transfer an

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer and onSaveInstanceState?

2008-12-08 Thread Dave Sparks

The HTTP session isn't controlled by the Java application, the media
framework has its own HTTP client.

The Java proxy object for the network session is the MediaPlayer
object which is owned by VideoView. You could retain a reference to
the VideoView object across the orientation change, so that it keeps
its internal MediaPlayer reference. You need to be careful because
holding on to a MediaPlayer object can have significant implications
on battery life, so you want to make sure you release it if your
activity no longer has the focus.

Unfortunately, the current VideoView design doesn't work well for
restoring state because it starts playing immediately after setVideoURI
().

[android-developers] Re: Debugging in Eclipse.

2008-12-08 Thread Brad Gies


No, I don't have anything that is 100% repeatable. After I sent the email,
two of the integer variables started showing up again, which helped. Then
for the ones that still weren't showing I simply created new variable and
assigned it at the spot where I needed to see the other, and the new
variable showed up.     

Also, it was a string parsing method that I was having the problem with, and
at the bottom of the method, I trimmed the main string and then looped back
to the top. It showed in the variables window if I set a breakpoint just
after I trimmed it at the bottom of the method. After I looped to the top
again it disappeared until I got to the bottom again. Very strange. 

Anyway, I finished debugging it this afternoon. I think it is still doing
it, but only in that one procedure in that one class. No idea how or why
yet.

Do you have an APK for which this is 100% repeatable?

Not sure if the phone will work there, depends if its band frequencies match

[android-developers] Re: Creating a TabHost with Tabs containing Activities WITHOUT extending TabActivity

2008-12-08 Thread Dianne Hackborn
Fyi, ActivityGroup is very simple and as far as I know doesn't use any
internal methods:

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob_plain;f=core/java/android/app/ActivityGroup.java;hb=HEAD

It's basically the same as ListActivity, a convenience class for a common
pattern that you can implement yourself.

Absolutely!

Sure!

Well, OK, it depends on how you define "define".

TabHost#addTab() takes a TabSpec, which wants a widget ID from the 
layout for the tab activity.

But, what you can do is create MyNeatoWebViewWrapper class that takes a 
WebView in the constructor and houses all your WebView-specific logic, 
such as your WebViewClient instances and such. In your TabActivity, you 
would use findViewById() to get the WebView to hand to 
MyNeatoWebViewWrapper, and use the same widget ID in the TabSpec.

There are probably other patterns here as well; this is just one off the 
top of my head.

[android-developers] Re: Kalman Filters for the GPS data

2008-12-08 Thread Brian Abbott

Interesting. I did some R&D/Simple prototype coding for a WiFi Indoor
Location Positioning System in 2001/2. I experimented with Kalman
filters as well as RBFs in order to calm down the random jumping that
occurs with indoor non-triangulated positioning. I say non-
triangulated because, in truth it wasnt, and I assumed such problems
would've disappeared had we been using Angle-of-Arrival or Time-of-
Flight methods, similiar to GPS. I'd never heard of GPS jumping or
giving inaccurate positions in the scenario of a weak signal however,
after having gone through the task of WiFi LPS, I dont doubt it, RF is
a strange place that can through some interesting curve balls at
you.

It's a hard problem to solve if it's the case that GPS could give rise
to the same issues. I'm sure with Cellular-Enhanced GPS, it becomes
more likely. However, in order to implement something like this, I
believe you would need decibal data from the GPS/Cellular Receievers
for each signal incorporated into the measurement in order to weight
each reading, I dont believe you would want to throw all readings in
any kind of a filter equally weighted. Most of the time, say when the
average Californian is driving on a busy roadway or highway, you
should be able to receive a clean signal since, in terms of an average
over distance traveled, you dont have too many tall buildings. Of
course the anecotal response to that is that the large asian cities is
where most users of these systems will probably reside however, the
truth remains that good signals shouldnt be weighted the same as
something that had poor signal quality to begin with. Although it's
been.. six years since I've looked at Kalman Filters... time to
refresh! I'm not sure if it's a problem but, It will be interesting to
see what kind of problems come up with regard to positioning
availability and accuracy! I think their will probably be a need for
hybrid systems with something like Zigbee or, a kind of ultra-
sensitive custom indoor time-of-flight/AoA system as people begin to
realize the value of Location and not only demand to be tracked but,
down to the foot, especially in heavily populated environments.. in
say 5 years?

Cheers,

Brian A.

[android-developers] Re: Creating a TabHost with Tabs containing Activities WITHOUT extending TabActivity

2008-12-08 Thread mscwd01

Thanks again for your time helping me with this, very much
appreciated.

The "content" I wish to include in each tab are WebViews, I hadn't
really thought about it but I may be able to achieve what I want
without using intent-based tab content.

Just out of interest, my Activity is getting rather large, is there a
way to define a WebView in a different class from the one creating the
TabHost and just reference the WebView (from its individual class)
when inserting it as content to the tab?

Thanks

  These are not supported by the sms api (gsm telephony). You can
write your own sms client activity where you can implement whatever
you want to happen when recieving messages, but there is no api that

[android-developers] Re: Weird Map Problem (Controlling same map)

2008-12-08 Thread mscwd01

Having tried the test you suggested it seems I can go back and forth
between my Activity1 map and the inbuilt Google Maps app perfectly
fine - no memory worries. However my application, constantly throws up
OutOfMemory errors.

One thing I have noticed is after Activity1 calls Activity2, Activity1
is never able to load additional tiles. It seems Activity2, even if it
is destroyed after pressing the back button and returning to Activity1
always retains some kind of "focus" - If you reopen Activity 2, the
map is able to load new tiles. Very strange...

The output from "adb logcat" indicates the class that could not be
found as well as the class that has the bad reference.  The location
is identified down to the specific Dalvik instruction.  The trick is
to look in the logs above the exception.

Alas, I don't think it is possible, unless you fancy getting your hands 
dirty in the Android source code.

You need the activity that is managing the tabs to be an ActivityGroup 
if you want one or more tabs to contain Intent-launched activities. The 
only such class is TabActivity.

Similarly, AFAIK, you need to use MapActivity for your MapView to work.

Your only hope is to get the Android source code for TabActivity and 
MapActivity and attempt to merge them yourself to create 
TabbedMapActivity, so you can have an ActivityGroup subclass that 
implements both tabbing and mapping behavior.

Having written a section in Version 1.9 of my book on using Intent-based 
tabs in a TabActivity, I confess as to having no real good idea why 
anyone would want to use one. The only scenario I can see is if you need 
something that can be run independently as an activity *and* appear as a 
tab in another activity...but that can be solved just by separating 
those smarts out into a separate Java class and reusing the logic in 
both spots.

Okay, I think its just a case of not having enough memory, so for now
I'll forget switching between two activities where one activity
launches a new MapActivity instance.

I have created another version of my app which uses one MapView,
however that too has some problems ;)

Well, you already tried the stock answer of using finish(). With your 
kill-my-process hack, you're heading down in a direction which, on my 
map of Android, is labeled "Here There Be Dragons"...

 > I believe I am making more and

Or they're just not getting garbage collected fast enough or something.

I have a suggestion. I have no idea how crazy it will be for you to 
utilize if it works.

In Activity1, temporarily replace launching Activity2 with a 
startActivity() that launches the built-in Maps application. You should 
be able to do this through:

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("geo:40,-75")));

which will give you a map of the NJ side of the Philadelphia suburbs.

Now, try bouncing back and forth between your Activity1 and the Maps 
application, like you were bouncing between Activity1 and Activity2.

If things fail as before, I think you may just be screwed, at least in 
terms of rapidly flipping between two MapView instances. They may make 
too much garbage.

If, however, this holds up, it may be you can only effectively have one 
MapView per *application* if you want to rapidly switch between them. In 
that case, your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to split 
your project into two separate applications. This would suck mightily, 
particularly if you were looking to deploy via a market, but it's 
possible it is the best way for you to get two stable MapViews under 
your control.

If it were me, I'd try very very hard to get by with one map, somehow.

[android-developers] Re: Weird Map Problem (Controlling same map)

2008-12-08 Thread mscwd01

Okay, one last question ;)

I've noticed if I have one map in, say, "Activity1" and I call another
activity, "Activity2" which has a map within a tab of a TabHost - If I
press the back button and go from Activity2 to Activity1, the map in
Activity1 doesn't update i.e. load new tiles - only the map in the
TabHost of Activity2 will update from there on.

Also I have noticed I am getting OutOfMemory errors after I switch
between the Activity1 and Activity2 several times.

I tried overriding the onKeyDown method in the Activity of the tab in
Activity2 such as:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
Log.v("DEBUGTAG", "Back button pressed");
//Process.killProcess(Process.myTid());
   finish();
return (true);
}
return (super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event));
}

If I just call finish(), I get the problem mentioned above, however if
I call:
Process.killProcess(Process.myTid());
... to kill Activity2 (the process holding the TabHost and which
created the tab content activity displaying the second map), the
problem doesnt seem to appear. However I guess this is a nasty hack -
it certainly causes the application to stutter before redisplaying
Activity1 again.

Theres a lot there to take in I know ;)
However what i'm asking is, is there a way to kill off Activity2
completely when pressing the Back button to return to Activity1 and
return full control to the first map? I believe I am making more and
more map objects when I launch Activity2 again and again and not
releasing resources when I finish with it?

Hope I havent confused you ;)

Here you try to find recommendationList in res/layout/mainmenu.xml.

Here you say the layout you're aiming for is res/layout/Recommendation.xml.

Here is a recommendationList in res/layout/Recommendation.xml.

If all those are correct, then you may be loading the wrong layout, 
which would make your recommendationList variable null after the 
findViewById() call.

Also, I recommend all resources (layouts, etc.) be named in all 
lowercase, since on some platforms you can have a Recommendation.xml and 
a recommendation.xml, but Android ignores case in the R.java generation, 
which may cause confusion.

U...none I'm aware of. The ApiDemos in the SDK show separate

[android-developers] Re: Android Dev Phone 1™

2008-12-08 Thread Justin (Google Employee)

To your second question, the frequencies supported are listed in the
device's specs. Specifically, it is quad-band GSM, so you should get
EDGE speeds anywhere in the world with GSM and EDGE. It supports UMTS
on 1700Mhz and 2100Mhz frequencies (bands I and IV). AT&T operates
their 3G network on bands II and V.

Cheers,
Justin

I've had my phone slightly too long to return to T-Mobile, 14 days is
the cut off I belive, but perhaps you are still within your return

In any case I'm sure there's a fair group of us that would love a path
from our T-Moble G-1 to the Development platform and are perfectly
willing to give up any support/warantee from T-Mobile in the process.

[android-developers] How does a Cursor work?

2008-12-08 Thread Taísa Cristina
Hi,

when a database query retrieves a Cursor, what does it have in fact? I mean,
does it have the whole result set in memory or keep a kind of "pointer" to
each result row, and when I do cursor.moveToNext() it points to the next
row? Or anything else?

I need to deal with a long list of data, and I really wanna know how
efficient is a Cursor retrieved from a database query.

Thanks,
Taísa

Hello,
I think your discussion is very interesting.I would like to know how I

It could very useful if you want to establish a connection with a

[android-developers] Re: Android Dev Phone - shipping to Canada?

2008-12-08 Thread hudsonmotor...@gmail.com

I too tried to order phone and got that completely ridiculous shipping
charge of $264 which absolutely no one can justify. I buy phones off
of Cellular Blowout and get them shipped to Canada via USPS the most I
have been charged is $40 shipping and then I pay GST and duty here.
Maybe $50 tops. Its telling me it will only ship UPS and they charge
these outrageous brokerage fees to Canadians. The minute I saw it was
UPS I canceled my order. Total rip-off and they want us to develop for
these phones.

[android-developers] Re: Hidden Contacts

2008-12-08 Thread Eric Mill

The "Suggested Contacts" category was specifically created in Gmail so
that G1 users wouldn't get swamped with a massive, irrelevant contacts
list.  If the G1 is populating any view of contacts from that list,
something is wrong.

I see this too, specifically when Any Cut populates a view of contacts
for you to create direct call shortcuts to, it includes duplicates of
many contacts, duplicates which don't appear in my regular Contacts
list in the dialer.

[android-developers] Re: Weird Map Problem (Controlling same map)

2008-12-08 Thread mscwd01

I've had a look at the documentation you suggested, however I think im
misunderstanding how you launch a new activity in a seperate process.
Is there a demo which illustrates this?

[android-developers] Re: G1 and PS3 question

2008-12-08 Thread Michael

I'm doing this right now with Music Player Daemon (http://
www.musicpd.org/) and an application I wrote for Android to control
the player (currently unreleased).  It works great but my music is
stored on the server, not on the G1.  If you want to keep your music
on the G1, you'd need a player that streamed to the internet, and I
suspect that it'd drain your battery fast.  As far as I know, there is
no such player yet available - but one could be written.

[android-developers] Re: New SDK Available

2008-12-08 Thread Josh Roesslein
Here are some specs on the G1 -->
http://www.htc.com/www/product/g1/specification.html

Of interest is the networking section.

HSPA/WCDMA and Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE are supported.

Keep in mind WCDMA is a lot different than the standard CDMA. Its often
called UMTS and the only major
telecoms in the USA that support it are T-mobile and At&t.

Is it possible to compile/run code from the Eclipse plugin so that the

[android-developers] Re: Rotate MapView

2008-12-08 Thread David C

"Bump"  can anyone provide insight here?

Did the MapView onDraw() API change to "final" at some point? If the
recommended method to rotate a MapView is canvas.rotate() how can that
be achieved if not via onDraw()?

Personally I'd prefer to see the MapView API extended to support
"setBearing()" or something similar, but nothing like that exists.

[android-developers] Show images from internal and external content

2008-12-08 Thread fala70

Hi,

I am going crazy to show a few images from Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
or Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.
I need to show a few images from Internal or External memory, using an
Activity similar to ImageSwitcher1.java from ApiDemo.

I know if the image is on Internal or External memory and I know also
the image name. I modified the getView function of ImageSwitcher1.java
so:

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
ImageView i = new ImageView(mContext);

try{
cur.moveToPosition(position);
Uri ur=null;

if (cur.getInt(7)==1)
ur = Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
else
ur = Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
Uri uri=Uri.withAppendedPath(ur, cur.getString(5));
i.setImageURI(uri);
i.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
i.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.picture_frame);
}
catch(Exception ex){

}
return i;
}


The problem is that is showed correctly only the first image, then
crash. Where can I find a sample that show images from internal and
external content ?

help please.
thanks
Stefano

[android-developers] AIDL callback interface from Service to Activity oddity

2008-12-08 Thread DulcetTone

I have 2 activities (call them 1 and 2), Activity 1 includes a
Service.

If the Service tries to make an AIDL call to Activity 1, the call
works fine.

If, however, the Service tries the same AIDL call to Activity 2 (the
remote activity), it never arrives for processing at the remote
activity.  No RemoteException is triggered during the call from the
Service, either.

Is there anything magic I must do to make an AIDL interface work from
a Service to a remote Activity?

It bears mention that the remote Activity is easily making calls by a
separate AIDL interface to the Service.

[android-developers] Re: When will we get a "Firm" Date on app sales

2008-12-08 Thread John Lauricella

I am having trouble making out a development roadmap for my applications in the 
Android Market without any ideas as to when I will be able to sell them.
I realize that the apps now available must remain free, but my decisions on 
feature sets and possible updates are dependent on how long the wait is until I 
can recoup some money.
I have heard "early next year". Is that the best estimate?
If there is no date envisioned, is there a recommendation as to where else to 
go to sell Android apps?

[android-developers] Activity finishOnBackground attribute

2008-12-08 Thread Adam K

Hi all,

I want to do the following for a notification type activity that
should be removed/closed from the system either via a button in the
activity, or the user leaving with back or home:

from - http://code.google.com/android/intro/appmodel.html
Another approach you can take is to set the notification activity's
task affinity to the empty string "" (indicating no affinity) and
setting the finishOnBackground attribute. ... By specifying this
attribute, the activity will be finished whether the user leaves it
with BACK or HOME; if the attribute isn't specified, pressing HOME
will result in the activity and its task remaining in the system,
possibly with no way to return to it.

However, I don't see any other references in the docs to
finishOnBackground - the link on that page takes me to
finishOnTaskLaunch instead.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Sprint uses cdma in most of its coverage areas. Since the g1 is a GSM phone
it probably will not work.

[android-developers] Re: Android Market HTTP Links?

2008-12-08 Thread mathiastck

Yes you can:

http://code.google.com/android/devel/sign-publish.html

The "Using Intents to Launch the Market Application on a Device"
section describes the url pattern.  It also works if these urls are
used on links on pages viewed from and Android phone.  They don't work
if you just type them directly into the browser, they have to be
links, to generate the right intent.

[android-developers] Problem configuring build path

2008-12-08 Thread Aniruddha

Hi.

  I am trying to call one android application from another. Both these
applications are working fine independently. The commands I have given
are:
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClassName(android.sip.simpleclient,
android.sip.simpleclient.SIPclient.class);
startActivity(intent);

  But I am getting the error message stating that
"android.sip.simpleclient can't be resolved". I tried the "Fix project
setup" option but it gave the message "No proposals were found". So,
then I tried to manually configure the build path of the project. But
even after adding the target project folder into the "Required
projects on the build path", the package needed is not being resolved.

  Please give me some advice regarding this. What am I missing?

Thanks and Regards.
Aniruddha.

[android-developers] Re: Android Dev Phone - shipping to Canada?

2008-12-08 Thread J Dietrich

I've spoken with Canada Customs and had it confirmed that a phone w/
$399USD value would incur a max of $64 in taxes (PST+GST) at current
exchange rates. Being manufactured outside of NAFTA zones, it is
possibly subject to duties of 6% (about $30), though I was just
explicitly told by someone at customs that "this is rarely applied",
esp. for gear like cel phones. I'm pretty sure that it is not illegal
when it doesn't get applied, but IANAL either. UPS charges a brokerage
fee of $51 for $500+ value.

Allow for $20 of other misc charges, and go as high as $15 on the
exchange spread for the CC/bank. You've still got $180 CAD here in
what I think it's safe to call "worst case", and that's a far cry from
the $330+ CAD being charged.

I will more than likely ship to the US and get it over here myself -
which will likely only cost me a lunch break and an extra $64 (taxes).
But the hassle, and the lack of a real explanation for the incredibly
high extra fee makes me think twice -- not a great first experience on
what I hope will be a fun and productive ride with this platform.
Loads of US companies have no problems shipping to Canada without
incurring these kind of costs - I'm really disappointed that Google/
Brightstar managed to get it so wrong. Why does Google hate Canada? ;)

Brightstar has a history of screwing up International Orders, which
can be found by looking at the history of the One Laptop Per Child's
G1G1 program.  In that case, getting the device was the issue, not the
cost of the shipping.  It took Brightstar almost six months to figure
out how to ship to Canada for cheap, and it seems that they've
promptly forgot how to do that with the astronomical shipping cost for
the Dev Phone.  It shouldn't cost that much to ship it to Canada.

I honestly want to know why Brightstar has so much trouble shipping to
Canada, because every other company that I have ever dealt with hasn't
had a problem shipping across the border.  If we could get some
justification from them, that would be helpful, since every cool
device that I want (either for dev work, or for personal) seems to
inflict their unique brand of pain.

[android-developers] Any way to reject a call programmatically

2008-12-08 Thread Jay-andro

Is there any direct (or convoluted) way to reject an incoming call,
i.e. send it directly to voicemail. Meaning
(a) if a call is coming in and matches certain criteria
(b) send the call to VM, and stop the ringing. (programmatically)
I've got (a) under control but I dont know how to do (b).
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jay

Not in this case. In this case the duties and taxes have been charged
to the shipper, which is why the cost of shipping *and handling* is
much more than just the shipping cost.

As to the amount, I'm not a lawyer or a customs specialist. Therefore,
I assume the costs vary by country according to the laws of that
country. While it is true that sometimes duties are not assessed
depending on how shipments are labeled, it doesn't mean that legally
they shouldn't be.

[android-developers] Eclipse problem viewing threads on emulator

2008-12-08 Thread Greg

Hi All,

In Eclipse there is an android Threads view which, I assume, will
allow me to monitor the threads I am creating.  However, the view
simply comes up and says 'Thread updates not enabled for selected
client (use toolbar button to enable)'.

I see no toolbar button that has anything to do with this and googling
for this message came up with nada.   I also see nothing regarding
threads in the android run configuration for the project.  Can anyone
point me in the right direction here for what I need to do to actually
enable this view?

Thanks,

Greg

When logged to an Android Market, see this for details:

http://android.brightstarcorp.com/help.php

This contains information as follows:

"Outside the US
For Orders shipping outside the US, shipping pricing includes cost of
shipping service and the applicable customs, duties, import and
country specific other fees."

So this price is not only for a package. This wasn't obvious, at least
for me.

[android-developers] Re: Shipping a European dev phone to the US?

2008-12-08 Thread Justin (Google Employee)

The charger that ships with the Dev Phone 1 works from 100-240V, so it
supports European voltages, but you may need a plug adapter to
physically adapt the plug.

Additionally, if it doesn't come with one, you can just buy a USB-

I often do).

[android-developers] Re: How to configure android emulator disk space?

2008-12-08 Thread David Turner
disk space is not configurable at the moment. the partition sizes reflect
the ones on the G1.
we may add a feature to allow arbitrary partition sizes in the future, but
for now, you will have
to hack the emulator sources to do that (search for 0x420 in
android_main.c).

as for anything built with gnueabi, chances are that it will not work at
all,
*unless* you build a totally static executable (i.e. one that doesn't even
link dynamically
to the Android C library), given that it is not compatible with the Android
ABI.

[android-developers] Creating a TabHost with Tabs containing Activities WITHOUT extending TabActivity

2008-12-08 Thread mscwd01

I need a way to create a TabHost which has an intent as the tabs
content, e.g:

TabHost tabs = (TabHost)findViewById(R.id.tabhost);
tabs.setup();
TabSpec spec1 = tabs.newTabSpec("TabOne");
spec1.setIndicator("Tab One", this.getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.tab_icon));
spec1.setContent(new Intent(this, MyTabClass.class));
tabs.addTab(spec1);

Without extending TabActivity.

I am currently extending MapActivity, which I cannot change as it is
needed. Therefore, I currently get the following error at runtime,
when the tab is clicked:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Did you forget to call 'public void
setup(LocalActivityManager activityGroup)'?

Is there a way to call "setup(LocalActivityManager activityGroup)"
WITHOUT extending TabActivity?

Please say there is ;)

Thanks

as T-Mobile's G1 except from the fact that this is unlocked. I've
already ordered this phone and now I'm a little confused.

[android-developers] Re: audio recording issues

2008-12-08 Thread Dave Sparks

I can only tell you that the feature is done. The timing of when you
see a device in the field that supports it is up to the deployment
manager.

It's important to remember that Android is a platform, and just
because the platform advances doesn't necessarily mean that all
devices are advancing in lockstep. Each deployment manager will make
choices based on their own business case. For example, the G1 has
different deployments based on region.

[android-developers] ConnectivityManager with the emulator

2008-12-08 Thread nimbus83

Hello,

I want to implement with the emulator an application that receives
information when the network connection is connected or disconnected.
How can I register a receiver that gets the changes in the network
connection?

I have tried this:

public class ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
ConnectivityManager connectivityManager =
(ConnectivityManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetInfo = 
connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo
();
NetworkInfo mobNetInfo = 
connectivityManager.getNetworkInfo
(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE);
}
}

IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
registerReceiver(new 
ConnectionChangeReceiver(), intentFilter);

What should be the input of the filter so that the ConnectivityManager
sends information to my receiver?

And one more question.

I have done some tests with the emulator with the following code:

ConnectivityManager connManager = (ConnectivityManager)
getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetworkInfo = connManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();

I get the information that the MOBILE network type is available and
its state is CONNECTED. If I disable the local area connection on my
PC I get the same information. How can make the network information
change? How can I disable/enable the connection for simulations?

Thank you in advance.

Best wishes!
