[android-developers] Re: how to use a content provider from other applications
You don't do anything special to use it from another app, just use ContentResolver to perform a query or whatever operation you want on the appropriate URI. This will use the URI's authority to find the other app's content provider, launch it, perform the operation on it, and return the result.

As I said, settings at this point is much more a part of the system code than a separate component. (I think it might even be running as the system uid.) At least for now, there are just lots of things the settings app needs to do that there was no way to put together in a public API that could be maintained across releases. On top of that, there are lots of things the settings app does that I think would be better off to not make available to applications in general. And I expect that going forward the exact contents of the settings app is going to vary more and more across devices to match an increasing variation in features/capabilities, so there wouldn't really any way for a third party app to correctly replace it. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.

Ah sorry, I thought you were talking about writing a third party app, which is what this group is for. If you are changing the platform, you should post in one of the appropriate groups, such as android-platform. Fwiw, there are a number of system properties that are read-only. Also they are generally not intended to be the place to through a mish-mash of higher-level configuration information.

[android-developers] onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) && onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle)
Hi,
This one is easy, but I seem to have a problem using this technique to
save some state.
Basically, the problem I'm having is that neither
onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle) nor onCreate(Bundle) have the bundle
I've previosly saved from onSaveInstanceState(Bundle). In fact,
onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle) never gets called. Here's my
implementation:
@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState){
Log.i("MyActivity.class", "onSaveInstanceState()");
savedInstanceState.putString("MyString", "This is a test
message.");
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
Then I fire up another activity, which has a link to the original one,
where I try to recover the state as follows:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Log.i("MyActivity.class", "onCreate()");
if (savedInstanceState != null){
String myString = savedInstanceState.getString("MyString");
Log.i("AddActivity.class", myString);
}
}
@Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState){
Log.i("AddActivity.class", "onRestoreInstanceState()");
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
String myString = savedInstanceState.getString("MyString");
Log.i("AddActivity.class", myString);
}
Like I said the onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle) method doesn't even get
called.
Has anyone faced the same problem? How did you resolve it? Thanks.

The emulator doesn't provide you with the YouTube application (I don't know about the developer phone), so the above only works on the actual device.

Thanks. If the trigger for making your View be visible is the existence of data, perhaps notify-on-change support is what you want.

[android-developers] MonolithAndroid 1.0.4 beta release
MonolithAndroid is a game developed for android based devices. It uses OpenGL/ES for graphics and is a derivative of a well known 6 letter puzzle / arcade game starting with T. Need I say more? I started the project one year ago. The latest release 1.0.4 is available for download from http://code.google.com/p/monolithandroid/downloads/list You can view a demo video on YouTube from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neJOwlsmKmU In this video you can get an idea for the mechanics and the gameplay. It should run on T-Mobile G1, but I cannot be sure, because I do not currently own an actual hardware device. So your feedback is greatly appreciated in order to correct bugs and make the game run smoothly and provide a good player experience. The game is open sourced under the Apache 2.0 license and you can find the code on http://code.google.com/p/monolithandroid If you have any comments, remarks or bug reports you can post them either here, or on my blog. More technically minded folks can also use the issue tracker on http://code.google.com/p/monolithandroid (found on the issues tab). If you are a developer you can freely modify the code and adapt it to your needs. I would be very happy to receive your feedback Tasos Kleisas --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Replace the current view by an other view
i have one question around the runOnUiThread...Basically when i used this
method in the onCreate/onStart of the Activity,i found that it works quite
differently than i expect..
For example in the onCreate/onStart..say I have long running operation
before which i want to render the UI with a progress bar.and after the long
runnin operation is complete remove the progress bar and show the view..In
this case I found that the UI is rendered only after the long running
operation...so i end up not seeing the progress bar..I ended up using the
handler...Am i going wrong in my understanding of this method?
protected void onStart(){
super.onStart();
Progress Bar Visible
runOnUiThread( new Thread() {
// go get our feed!
public void run() {
//longrunning operation
//Progress Bar Gone
//show the required view
}
});
}

[android-developers] Re: Replace the current view by an other view
I did it :
// Create a thread to change the view
final Grid f_grid = grid;
Runnable mainThreadRunnable = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
m_activity.setContentView(f_grid);
}
};
// Run the thread
m_activity.runOnUiThread(mainThreadRunnable);
It works great, is it a correct way ?

[android-developers] After the ADT 0.9 update, Eclipse can not create R.java automatically
Hi, I checked out cupcake branch yesterday and made the full build and sdk successfully, and I also built the ADT 0.9 with the command cupcake/development/tools/eclipse/scripts/build_server.sh on another Linux box. Then I updated the ADT 0.9 and set new SDK on Eclipse.

[android-developers] Re: How to navigate from HOME back to a paued Task?
I'm not sure I completely understand what you're trying to do. If the user pauses an activity by pressing the home button, you shouldn't bring the application to the foreground again. The user can just press the application icon in the launcher and the app will be brought to the foreground again (going through the usual lifecycle callbacks so you get a chance to restore state, depending on how your app is configured). If you have an application that does something in the background, reacts to an event, and then wants to be in the foreground again, you should consider splitting your application into two parts, the background task as a service, and the UI as an application. Based on an event in the service launch the UI app as an intent.

[android-developers] Share data between tabbed intents
I need to share an id key (int) between three ListActivities hosted in
a TabActivity.
I have a TabActivity with three tabs that each start ListActivities
via intents like this:
...
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1")
.setIndicator("Recipes")
.setContent(new Intent(this, RecipeList.class)));
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab2")
.setIndicator("Ingredients")
.setContent(new Intent(this, IngredientList.class)));
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab3")
.setIndicator("Method")
.setContent(new Intent(this, MethodList.class)));
...
These three activities use a content provider with three normalised
tables:
RecipeList uses the Recipes table: | _ID | RecipeName |
IngredientList uses the Ingredients table: | _ID | RecipeID |
IngredientText |
MethodList uses the Methods table: | _ID | RecipeID |
MethodText |
The RecipeID column in the Ingredients and Methods tables refers to
the _ID column of the Recipes Table, thus linking ingredients and
methods to the relevant recipe.
So what I plan to do is when a row is selected in the RecipeList tab,
store the _ID somewhere accesible by IngredientList and MethodList
activities. Then when IngredientList or MethodList tabs are selected a
cursor query is made using the stored id in a where statement, thus
only displaying ingredients/methods that have a RecipeID value
matching the _ID of the selected recipe on RecipeList.
The only real solution I have come up with so far is using a static
int in the tabhost activity that the other activities can all read,
but this seems very messy and would require that only one instance of
any of the activities is created.
I'm sure there must be a neat way to do this with intents or
something, does anyone have any advice or examples?

[android-developers] An activity, a service and receivers - an architectural question
Hello, I'm not sure if I correctly understand the application life cycle and would like to consult the architecture of my application with the group. My application is intended to perform some time consuming (about 30 seconds) operation from time to time. The operation can be either invoked by the end-user (from app UI) or by some system event (through receiver). The operation should be performed in background but its current status should be visible on the application window. One operation can be performed at one time. They should not overlap. If new events which invoke the operation occur when the operation is already running, the new operation should start after the running one ends. My current package consists of following elements: The Service - the whole operation is performed in onStart() 2 receivers which just launch the service by calling startService() The Activity which is about to display a status and from which the end- user can start the service (via startService()) My questions are following: Should the service run in separate process (via remote attribute)? Will it be able to still share the preferences? Or maybe the service can run in the same process? But will UI work during the operation? The operation does not need any parameters. Do I need to define IDL's etc? Or calling startService() is enough? What if startService() is called but the service is busy in onStart()? Will the request be queued? Or should I run the operation in the separate thread and create my own queue? How to share the operation status (text only) between the service and the UI? Is SharedPreferences suitable for this purpose? Thanks Kuba --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Export to SIM feature
Ok I wrote an application based off the SIM import tool located on the latest source for Android, its crude but it "should" work, i need help polishing it off and I would hope that it would make it into the main tree in time for release. THIS IS CODE EMBEDDED IN THE SOURCE NOT THE SDK. I was wondering if there was a way to attach the files needed on here so others can take a look and touch up/finish up the code? The part I am having most trouble at is the actual "writing" to SIM portion as the emulator doesn't have a "fake" SIM I can't actually see if the code works, but I think it does, although it is lacking so data check features (ie. check to see if the entry already exists on the SIM card and copy or don't copy). The export all feature seems to work fine with no force close, the import one seems to force close for some reason... Either way if someone is willing to help finish this thing off id be happy to provide the code, and id love to see this in the next build.

[android-developers] Help with AnimationDrawable
I've tried everything I can think of and can't get this
AnimationDrawable (from code, not XML) to work. Please let me know
what I doing wrong.
First, we have the regular simple app:
public class Example extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(new ExampleView(this));
}
}
And the view class this uses:
class ExampleView extends View {
private Bitmap image1;
private Bitmap image2;
private BitmapDrawable frame1;
private BitmapDrawable frame2;
private AnimationDrawable anim;
public ExampleView(Context context) {
super(context);
Resources res = context.getResources();
anim = new AnimationDrawable();
image1 = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, R.drawable.image1);
image2 = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, R.drawable.image2);
frame1 = new BitmapDrawable(image1);
frame2 = new BitmapDrawable(image2);
anim.addFrame(frame1, 50);
anim.addFrame(frame2, 50);
anim.setOneShot(Boolean.FALSE); // make it loop
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
// draw a bunch of other stuff
anim.setBounds(0, 0, 50, 50);
anim.draw(canvas);
}
// fix for bug where .start() doesn't work within context of
activity starting
@Override
public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean has_focus) {
if (has_focus) {
anim.start();
} else {
anim.stop();
}
}
}
I have verified that the animation is indeed running, that it is
looping, and that there are multiple frames, but for some reason I can
still only see the first frame (i.e. it never actually animates). I've
tried attaching the AnimationDrawable to an ImageView as the
background drawable and drawing the ImageView to the canvas, but that
didn't seem to help at all. I've also messed around with where .start
() is called a lot to no avail.
Any insight into why I am only seeing the first frame and can't get
this to animate would be greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] RunningTaskInfo.thumbnail is always null and onCreateThumbnail never called
I'd like to get some thumbnail images of the running applications. The
combination of RunningTaskInfo.thumbnail and
Activity.onCreateThumbnail seems like just the thing but I don't see
it working. I've overridden onCreateThumbnail in my main Activity.
According to the documentation, this method is called by the framework
when the activity is paused. I've set a breakpoint in the method and
it never seems to be hit. The base implementation of onCreateThumbnail
would work just fine if it would fire.
@Override
public boolean onCreateThumbnail(Bitmap outBitmap, Canvas canvas)
{
return super.onCreateThumbnail(outBitmap, canvas);
}
Also, I've written some simple code to getRunningTasks from the
ActivityManager. The RunningTaskInfo.thumbnail property is always
null. Is there something I need to set within an application so that
it will generate it's thumbnail before onPause? Is something needed in
the manifest. The documentation on this feature is sparse.
Here's some [simplified] code I use in an extension of BaseAdapter to
fetch the running tasks:
ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager)context.getSystemService
(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
List tasks = manager.getRunningTasks(10);
RunningTaskInfo info = tasks.get(arg0);
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService
(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.taskitem, null);
ImageView image = (ImageView)view.findViewById(R.id.image);
TextView label = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.label);
label.setText(info.baseActivity.getPackageName());
Bitmap bmp = info.thumbnail;
image.setImageBitmap(bmp);

[android-developers] access rows in ListActivity
Hello guys! I really need your help here.. I want to include one button inside each row in a ListActivity. When pressing one of these buttons it will be disabled and will perform a heavy task in the background (in a different thread to avoid screen blocking). After the action is completed the button will be enabled again and the row updated with some results obtained from that "heavy operation". Im filling my List with a custom SimpleCursorAdapter, its getView method calls super.getView and in the view (row) returned I access its button through findViewById and set my clicklistener (to disable it, and launch the heavy task in the background). Once this heavy task is finished I need a reference to this row view to find the button and re- enable it. SimpleCursorAdapter´s super.getView() reuses row views shown on screen to avoid creating many different rows instances, so when my "heavy task" is finished the row view reference i need to reenable its button may have been reused in a different row, so in the end I am modifying a button in a different row! I have tried different solutions, for example giving different ID to each row view (useless because it gets overwritten when the row view is reused...) Obviously creating a different row instance for each row whether its shown on screen or not isnt the best solution. I really have no clue on how to solve this .. thanks in advance --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: access rows in ListActivity
Do it in the bindView method and redraw the list view when the heavy task is done. To make sure you're disabling and enabling the correct row, just make sure the data that is bound through the adapter has a unique id associated with it (or some other way of identifying any particular row uniquely) so you can check for that id when the view is bound.

If you are going to request the background task several times from the activity, I would not use startService() several times. Either use AIDL or some other in-process communications (e.g., shared LinkedBlockingQueue that the Activity posts requests on and the background thread pulls requests off of). > Will the request be queued?

Is SharedPreferences suitable for this purpose? Since the operation status is not persistent between runs of your application, I would not use SharedPreferences. Use some other in-process indicator (e.g., a static AtomicConcurrentBoolean in the event object pushed onto the queue by the activity). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 2.0 Available! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

The dialog display just fine with the correct number of radio buttons,
but the text for the buttons does not display UNLESS I press/select an
item. Then once I let up on the selection it disapperas again...
what in the world am I not getting???

It's somewhat redundant but it works since the visibility logic is inside the method that does the filling. An example that's very similar is Android's Call Log. If it's empty and you make a call, then go back to the log and switch tabs from the dialer to the log, it displays as expected (suppressing the 'empty' View). Maybe they refill whenever the tab is selected. I avoid this since it would be redundant if the data is the same. The difference between my app and the Call Log is that no change of tab is involved. Your suggestion may be better but in the interest of time I will move on with what works. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: How to re-install & sign android built-in applications
Yes in this case probably what is desired is changing the package name, though that wasn't explicitly requested. But in Android that is how you install an alternative version of an app -- by installing a -different- app with the same public capabilities (handling the same intents etc) as the built-in app. Then the user is free to decide when and where they want to use that new app, if at all. For the desire to just install a custom version of a built-in app that has the same name, and is thus treated as a new version, of the built-in app, the basic answer is: - In the current platform, it is not possible to install an UPDATE (key word) to a built-in application in to the data partition; updates can only be done by replacing the app in /system. - In Cupcake we will have this facility, HOWEVER: 1. You still must be able to sign the app with the same certificate as the version in the system partition. If you can't, you can't update it. Only the original author of an application can create new versions of their own applications. You won't be able to do this with any of the built-in apps, because HTC and Google own the various certificates. 2. It simply is not correct to install a your own update to one of the system apps (contacts, calendar, etc) because those are part of the open source platform and the company who made the phone you are installing it on could have customized that app in significant ways. Your "update" could actually be a regression, or completely incompatible with how the built-in app stores its data.

[android-developers] Re: Anyone willing to share...
To be safe, you could set a flag to say it has been dismissed that you check when creating the next activity. Generally we call onCreate() immediately after onDestroy() when switching orientations, but this is a good point that there may be another message dispatch between them in some cases so to be correct you need to deal with that.

[android-developers] Re: How to re-install & sign android built-in applications
I thought one of the core tenants of Android was that developers could write, and end users could install, apps that replaced the default apps. (Such as k9 and k9sms.) Is this not, in fact, true? (And please don't try to claim that sms/mms isn't a core feature of a mobile phone OS. And both of those projects are, from the start, forks of the AOSP applications.) Looking at the Android page (http://code.google.com/android/) I see: *Any app on the mobile device can be replaced or extended -- even core components such as the dialer or home.* ..the dialer has already been hashed over (at best, you can make non-emergency calls, but you cannot in fact "replace or extend" the dialer completely.)

[android-developers] Re: android.hardware.Camera - JPEG image of correct size but always black
Right now, the answer is no. Most cameras require that you go to preview mode before you can take a picture so that the image processor can grab some frames for auto-focus, white balance, etc. I'll see if we can get a change into Cupcake that allows you to start preview without a surface. That should allow you to do what you want. It will be some time though before this feature will appear on devices in the field. The other thing you need to bear in mind is that the camera eats a LOT of power. You don't want to run it for long periods of time in background. I forget what the power numbers are on the G1, but I bet when if kept fully spun-up it will drain the battery in a couple of hours.

You need to call startPreview() before takePicture. You also need to supply a PictureCallback function to receive the encoded JPEG.

I don't understand why taking the AOSP launcher, for example, and modifying it is "simply not correct" but writing one from scratch is..?

[android-developers] Re: Camera Focus Facility
Roughly:
Camera mCamera = Camera.open();
// this sequence should occur after onResume and surfaceCreated
mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(mSurfaceHolder); // saved from
surfaceCreated call
mCamera.startPreview();
// to start focus - usally called from your onClickListener
mCamera.autoFocus(afCallback);
// to take picture - usually called from your onClick listener
mCamera.takePicture(shutterCallback, null, pictureCallback);
// auto focus callback
public void autoFocusCallback(boolean focused, Camera camera) {
// play focused sound
}
// shutter callback function
public void shutterCallback() {
// play shutter sound
}
// picture callback function
public void pictureCallback(byte rawData[], Camera camera) {
// save JPEG
}
You should also note that there is significant lag from the time
takePicture() is called until the image capture begins. You can
shorten this time by calling auto-focus first. You don't want to move
the camera until after the shutter callback.

[android-developers] Re: How to re-install & sign android built-in applications
It's not that easy, because aapt assumes that the android package name is also the source code package name. At the very least you need a custom post-processing step to move the generated R file into the proper source code package, and none of the standard Android build tools support that. On top of that, you've got to pray that the application you're working with only uses SDK-accessible permissions.

Yes, better tools to help with this would be nice. The basic point of the package name is this: it provides a unique identity for an application under a particular author's control. It does not make any sense for someone to go and modify an application in the open-source platform and make it available with the same package name, because what you have done is created a -fork- and it needs a new identity. The existing system app will continue to evolve, and your own fork will continue to evolve, and there is no way to ensure they are compatible. And further, as I said, the apps that are available as part of the platform code are really owned by the manufacturer of the device they are running on (using the platform code as a base), so there is simply no way you can know that your version of the app forked off of some version of the platform will be able to actually replace the version built into a piece of hardware based on possibly some other version of the platform with who knows what customization done by the hardware manufacturer. So the way one replaces components is to create a -new- application that supplies the same features to the system as the built-in application, so the system can let the user pick which one to use where appropriate, use the built-in one where the replacement didn't actually happen to provide some functionality it has, etc. This is actually an -intrinsic- part of the claim about third parties being able to replace applications, in that it is done in such a way that it can be controlled and avoid breaking things on whatever device the replacement is being installed on. > On top of that, you've got to pray that the application you're working > with only uses SDK-accessible permissions. The vast majority of applications built into the system use normal application permissions. As we have already gone over numerous times, yes there are some parts of the UI that are more intimately tied with the system (in-call screen, lock screen, settings) and not so easy to extract at this point. That doesn't invalidate the general philosophy nor the extensive architecture in place to support that philosophy. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.

[android-developers] openGL colors
I'm writing some 3D rendering code, having started from the API demos to get the SurfaceHolder and openGL initialization/refresh logic. The actual rendering after that is not a problem. However, it seems that openGL does not create a surface properly. You can see the problem in the API demo. Both the GLSurfaceView and Translucent GLSurfaceView demos use the same Cube class to draw the mesh, and so have the same color. But the result on screen has inverted color channels in the translucent case. To make it obvious, change the colors in the Cube.java color array to be 0x1, 0, 0, 0x1 on each line. In the non-translucent demo, the cube will appear red. In the translucent demo, it will show blue. If the format set on the SurfaceHolder does not match the one requested from openGL, it's obvious the phone does not do any conversion, and simply copies the bits to the surface. That's expected, except there seems to be no way to define them to be the same if we want better then 565 quality. The non-translucent demo uses a RGB 565 format, whereas the translucent one uses RGBA . But it seems open GL creates a BGRA instead. Am I missing a call somewhere to specify the channel order? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
