[android-developers] Re: Restoring the active Activity while resuming the application

[Omer Saatcioglu]

Actually, this code is a work around to get rid of the problem.
However; I think I found the root cause of my problem at
stackoverflow.com. I asked the same question and they told me that
there is a bug in emulator: 
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2373

I think that all I need to do right now is clean the save/restore
state codes from my project and run the signed copy directly on my
device.

Thank your for your kind help.

[Jeffrey Sharkey]

Sure, use a Canvas wrapped around a mutable copy of the original
Bitmap.  Bitmap.copy() can get you a mutable bitmap of an existing
image, and then you can Canvas.drawText().

[android-developers] Re: setCursorVisible in the TextView

[Jeffrey Sharkey]

This might be a difference between how TextView and EditText behave.
If you're trying to let them edit text, use an EditText.  :)

[android-developers] Re: Restoring the active Activity while resuming the application

[for android]

I am not sure whether you will get different results in the device.

It will behave the same way AFAIK.


When ever home button is pressed your Child activity is being
finished...There is no way it will behave differently on the device.

[android-developers] Re: How do I point people to my app in the Android Marketplace?

[rgelb]

I am not clear on the concept.  Does pname stand for the namespace of
the application or the package name?
The name of my app is Better Deal and the package name is
com.vbrad.android.betterdeal
Would the URL the be market://search?q=pname:com.vbrad.android.betterdeal
???

Can someone test this out as I don't have a G1 handy?  Would be much
appreciated.

Thanks

[android-developers] running appl in background

[jj]

Hello folk
 I want to run application in background. When user close the
foreground screen, application should be running in background. so in
foreground there is no screen of this appl, while user can launch
other appl also.
 To achieve this with the "service component", is it necessary to
create separate process to run this service component or the main appl
process is enough to run service component in background.
While closing the foreground screen of main appl the process
of this appl is also killed? Or is it remain there to run background
service.

I want suggestion for this issue, Or any other way to attain the goal.

Thank you

[android-developers] progressDialog

[petunio]

Hi everybody

I am having a problem displayin a ProgressDialog. I hope someone can
show me what I am doing wrong...


void doStuff()
{
  myProgressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(layout.getContext(),"Please
wait...", "Downloading content...", true);

  /*
  Here I do my stuff
  */
   myProgressDialog.dismiss();
}

The problem is that the progressDialog is not shown inmediately.
I have tried doing layout.invalidate(), or layout.postInvalidate(),
and still the same:
the progressDialog is only shown if, for example, I remove the .dismiss
() instruction, and I call the doStuff() again

so, the progressDialog is there, but I dont know how to show it
inmediately


any ideas?
Thanks

[android-developers] Re: running appl in background

[Dianne Hackborn]

Please read the documentation on Service, the overview documentation on
applications (which has a section on process lifecycles/management), and
there are a number of examples in ApiDemos of creating services that run
after an activity finishes.

[android-developers] Updating TextView Values

[TrojanSnake12]

Hello everyone, and thanks in advance for the help.  What I'm trying
to do is a relatively simple task, but one that doesn't seem to be
working.  What I'm trying to do is display the Orientation X,Y,Z
coordinates on the screen in basic TextView boxes.  The sensors are
constantly updating my Global.myOrientation float array, and then I'm
running a Timed thread (I'm very new to threading, so forgive me if
it's ugly, but it gets the job done almost).  In this thread I just
set the value of each TextView's text to the desired value.  The
problem is that it only seems to work the first time.

It correctly displays whatever my initial data is, but then subsequent
runs of the thread do nothign to update the onscreen values when I
change the orientation of the phone.  LogCat output shows me that
inside the run() method, the values of Global.getOrientationX,Y,Z are
being updated correctly, and that the right data is being passed to
TextView.  How can I get around this limitation of TextView being
initialized once and then immutable?

Any assistance in fixing this, or providing an alternate solution
would be greatly appreciated.  Code posted below:

public class DisplayOrientation extends Activity
{

private static Timer time;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.variableviewelement);
Log.d("DisplayOrientation", "onCreate");

time = new Timer();
UpdateO t = new UpdateO();

time.scheduleAtFixedRate(t, 0, 300);
}


private class UpdateO extends TimerTask implements Runnable {
@Override
public void run() {
Log.d("UPDATEO", "In run");
Log.d("UUPDATE0", "xUp = " + Global.getOrientationX() + " yUp = 
" +
Global.getOrientationY()
+ " zUp = " + Global.getOrientationZ());
TextView tv1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TextView01);
TextView tv2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TextView02);
TextView tv3 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TextView03);
tv1.setText("X = " + Global.getOrientationX() + "  ");
tv2.setText("Y = " + Global.getOrientationY() + "  ");
tv3.setText("Z = " + Global.getOrientationZ() + "  ");
}
}

[android-developers] Re: Passing ArrayList across actvities

[a...@lg]

yeah,,thanks,..
I implemented thro Parcealable... But i need to know, if there could
be any overhead on implementing the same on Serializable...???

Because, Parcealable belongs to android.os.Parcealable And the
source data i get from 'another modul'e is completely a pure java
which has no knowledge abt Parcealable...

Please justify Why Parcelable instead of Serializable...

You may wish to use Google Code Search to find the source to fromHtml().
My guess is that it focuses on a small range of tags typically found
inside the  tag (e.g., , ), and  is not one of those.

Depending on what you are trying to build, you might consider whether
you should be creating a Web service that does this sort of processing
for you, rather than try to do it on the device.

[android-developers] Re: Restoring the active Activity while resuming the application

[Omer Saatcioglu]

Actually, I am really confused. Whenever I run the test application on the
device, it behaves like I wanted (the child activity is activated after
launching from home screen or recently launched screen) However; When I ran
my application after I removed overridden onPause and onResume methods, my
application behaves like you say (the main activity is activated after
launching from home screen or recently launched screen) I am still debugging
this problem though.

I think I will just say at the end "it is not a bug but it is a feature" :)

[android-developers] Problem with Camera and layout orientation

[mobilek...@googlemail.com]

Hi,
I've been trying to solve this for awhile now, and still couldn't find
a solution to it.
To properly display my SirfaceView consumed by the camera, I have
forced my activity's layout in landscape mode. However, in my app the
camera functionaluty will be mostly used in portait mode, and
therefore all other views in the same activty have to be in portrait
mode. Needless to say if I don't force the activity in landscape, the
SurfaceView is 90 degrees rotated. Any ideas on how to solve it?
Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: setCursorVisible in the TextView

[Ask]

Hi Jef,

Thanks 4 ur reply.
Its working fine 4 EditText..

But here there is no API to set cursor position like
EditText.setcursorPosition(),

I am updating EditText at different stages of application execution
programatically using EditText.append();
But cursor position is remaining at the first line only. I want cursor
to be visible at the end..

Is there anyway to accomplish it??

[android-developers] Re: Changing background style of MenuItem

[elDoudou]

Thank you for posting your conclusion. However, according to me,
setting the "android:itemBackground" element in an applied theme does
not change anything neither, so this work-around is not working:
please, tell me if I'm wrong... I went to the same conclusion by
analyzing the Android source code, and find that it is a shame that we
cannot overload the menu style, by declaring a XML style entry on a
style XML element. I totally share your point of view :)

[android-developers] Re: Exception locking surface - lockCanvas() returns a null?

[ellipsoidmob...@googlemail.com]

I hadn't realised you are doing openGL stuff. I've used surfaceview/
holder in the same was as the lunarlander, but I haven't used openGL
so I don't know how that works.

But, at a glance, it looks like you've got a mix of two different
approaches here - maybe the lockcanvas/unlockcanvasandpost approach is
not appropriate when using openGL as the openGL code is controlling
and locking the surface?

Hi Experts,

Can you please throw some light on the contents of the "bin" folder
which is generated under the project folder. Generally we have:

(1) a folder containing all the .class files.
(2) a file with .apk extension. This is a zipped form of all the .dex
files created for each .class file. (Please correct me if I am not
correct).
(3) a file "classes.dex" . WHAT IS THIS FILE?? IS THIS UNZIPPED FORM
OF .apk FILE??
(4) a file "resources.ap_". WHAT IS THIS FILE??

Kindly ellaborate on points 3,4.

Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] pricing model for a service based application

[naru]

I do understand that a self sufficient or standalone android
application
can be bought/sold for one time price.

But what are various ways a user can be charged if an android
application
was a service based application, meaning every time user playing a new
game
would fetch some data from a service.
It seems to me that the pricing model should be on usage bases,
be it periodically (monthly/yearly) or be it per use.

As an hypothetical example, if using gmail on a g1 has a price tag,
what options would
the google team may have, in terms of making users pay?

Can someone please throw some light on the subject?

[android-developers] HttpClient + Proxy with authentication

[Erik H]

I need to use HttpClient in my application. However, the network I'm
on when running the emulator has a proxy that requires authentication.

How do I configure the emulator to use this proxy with authentication
and how do I tell HttpClient to use this?

Currently, this is sort of blocking further development as I don't
wish to manually configure proxy in my code but use the one the device
is configured for.

Erik

[android-developers] Re: HttpClient + Proxy with authentication

emulator -help-http-proxy will tell you how to activate the emulator's
transparent proxy feature.
Note that this is transparent, i.e. you should not need to tell HttpClient
anything special if you
activate it.

Another note: there is currently a bug in the 1.1 emulator that prevents it
to work with certain
MS proxies that insist on sending chunked answers. The fix is already in the
cupcake tree.

I know that there is more or less proxy support in the framework, but I'm
not sure it works
well or is officially supported (meaning: it could disappear/change in
cupcake or later)

[android-developers] Re: progressDialog

[naru]

I believe the right way to fire a ProcessDialog is thru a Handler
try the following...

-- create a Handler and processDialog somewhere before doStuff()
   private final Handler handler = new Handler();
   private ProcessDialog processDialog;

-- your doStuff method should look like this
void doStuff() {
  fireProcessDialog();

   /*
   do your stuff,
   typically a network operation
   */
   doSomeNetworkingOperation();

   // dismiss the dialog
   myProgressDialog.dismiss();
}

private void fireProgressDialog() {
Runnable updater = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
myProgressDialog = 
ProgressDialog.show(layout.getContext(),"Please
 wait...", "Downloading
content...", true);
}
};
handler.post(updater);
}

[android-developers] Application gets killed "because provider is in dying process"

[GiladH]

Hey,

After long running the Media|Player (audio mode) the app I'm
developing often crashes w/
the following error:

> Process android.process.media (pid 14795) has died.
> Killing  because provider com.android.providers.media.MediaProvider 
> is in dying process android.process.media

Now this one is a real bummer because Android kills the media process
_without_
activating my own app's onLowMemory(), which would allow me to do some
preemptive memory releasing.


Is there a way to either

 (a) get a notification that media process (or any other process my ap
depends upon for that matter) is about to be killed

-or-

 (b) avoid my own app's killing after media process kill



TIA,
GiladH

[android-developers] Resetting checkboxes in a dialog with .setMultiChoiceItems()

[DavidG]

I'd like to have a dialog box which prompts the user to select from
various checkboxes, then confirm "Ok" or "Cancel". I have this
working, but my only issue is the dialog always retains the previous
checkbox selection state from the last time the dialog was shown. I'd
like to always force the checkboxes to be unchecked (false) every
time. Is there a way to accomplish this?

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
switch (id) {
case DIALOG_OPTION:
return new AlertDialog.Builder(MyApp.this)
.setTitle(R.string.select_option_title)
.setMultiChoiceItems(R.array.select_option,
null,
new DialogInterface.OnMultiChoiceClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,
int whichButton, boolean isChecked) {
/* Do whatever with checked buttons */
}
})
.setPositiveButton("OK", new
DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int
whichButton) {
/* User clicked Yes so do some stuff */
/* Is there a way to reset the checked buttons state
to false from here? */
}
})
.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new
DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int
whichButton) {
/* User clicked No so do some stuff */
/* Is there a way to reset the checked buttons
state to false from here? */
}
})
   .create();
 }
 return null;
}

[android-developers] Nightly Build for Emulator

[Evan Ruff]

Hey guys,

I'm a lame-o Windows developer trying to do some Browser specific
development targeting Android. I'm having some funny issues with my G1
and my older emulator (WebKit CSS/Layout, etc). I was wondering if any
of you Linux guys out there might be so kind as to give me a compiled
image of the latest nightly build? I believe I need three files out of
the tools directory:

/tools/lib/images/userdata.img
/tools/lib/images/system.img
/tools/lib/images/ramdisk.img

I'd build it myself, but my windows box can't do it!

Thanks!

Evan

[android-developers] Removing the default interpolator for xml based animation effects for views

[quakeboy]

When ever I try to animate a view using a simple xml based animation,
it seems to have default interpolator set of some kind as the motion
is not truly linear.

Is there a way to set the default animation interpolator to linear and
remove the lag in the start/end of the animation.

[android-developers] Bind Service between different APKs

[Jorge Fonseca]

*All*,

How to bind a client to service if they are in different applications?

I have a simple service running in a specific .apk and try to access it from
OTHER .apk.
I already declared permission in both manifest.xml:

*Service*:


*Client:*


Every time i try to access the service, i get the follow error msg:

"Not allowed to bind to service intent {comp={app.aidl,
app.aidl.MyService}}"

I already tried to use tag attributes like: exported, enabled but no success
is reached.

Does someone have any suggestion?

Regards,
Jorge.

[android-developers] Re: GWT and the Android Browser

[Evan Ruff]

JP,

Thanks for your response! I've downloaded 1.1_r1 and done a little bit
more testing and:

#5, #6. This is something that seems to ONLY happen on the Android
system. In Chrome it screams along like a scalded dog. Stuff pops up,
hides, fades etc like it was a native application.

#2. There's some work going on over in the GWT stack to have Gears/AIR/
HTML5 native storage/workers/caches abstracted in GWT. This is a
pretty exciting project and will hopefully lead to some truely awesome
android ports.

#4. Farts. Still there. Maybe a TICK faster, but not really.

#1. Still weird.

#3. ditto.

iPhone has implemented a mouse drag event framework that looks pretty
cool. No love for Android yet though. I'd love to try a nightly build,
but as I'm on Windows I can't do a image compilation from source.

[android-developers] Re: Android/G1 video driver

[David Turner]

If you are referring to the accelerated OpenGL ES shared library used by
the system on G1 / ADP1 devices, its source is not available, it's a
proprietary
binary blob.

There is however a software-only OpenGL ES implementation that is part of
the system (and is used when you run in the emulator), released under the
Apache 2.0
license. Look for "pixelflinger" in the sources.

Agree, not only that. I just saw the Java/App Engine release
yesterday. GWT is moving in the right direction. Tough to say this,
but I'm not so sure that's the case with Android. I am  increasingly
under the impression that noone at Google outside of the Android team
really cares about their own firm's product (in favor of the almighty
iPhone).

[android-developers] Re: Android/G1 video driver

[yarik...@gmail.com]

ok... thanks a lot.

I have another one question though. It' about framebuffer driver.
There are a lot of sources in git and I can't find out wich one is
used for MSM7201A chipset used in G1. Thanks for response.

[android-developers] Re: How to login to the root of Android Dev Phone 1?

[Gavin Aiken]

Hi Guys,

I'm having the same issue. I just go a dev phone and i'm used to wiping the
database of my ap by removing it using eclipse from the
/data/data//databse.db location.

Now i'm developing on a dev phone I don;t have access to /data/.

I've installed terminal emulator but I need to know what command to use as a
recursive chmod on data returns the error message 'bad mode'.

# chmod 777 -R /data/

Any help greatly appreciated! I'm trying different database setups, the sql
is bundled with the apk, the database remains upon reinstallation of the app
via eclipse and hence I need to remove it manually (A better approach would
also be a welcome suggestion).

Cheers,

Gav

ah, I don't know the answer to this, but you should ask on android-porting
instead, since this is a forum for application developers.

[android-developers] Re: Android/G1 video driver

[Streets Of Boston]

Thanks!
This likely answers the problem i saw with calling
GL11Ext.glDrawTexiOES as well. It behaves differently (quite
differently) on the emulator than on an actual phone (G1)

[android-developers] Re: Key dispatching timed out

[Streets Of Boston]

How are you downloading your images?
Are you doing this in your main message-thread?  (e.g. in a
onSomethingSomething(...) method?)

If so, this causes your problem.

Start a new thread. Have this thread download your image when
necessary.
When you thread is done, have it post back to the main message-thread
with the resulting bitmap.

[android-developers] Ultra-Competitive FireWallet supporters

[John Lauricella]

Somebody named "Peter", who has a comment on the FireWallet finance application 
review page on the Android Market that says something like this "Firewallet is 
the greatest program ever, the best finance program, and the best application 
period, for Android.." 5 STARS, went on a competing finance application 
(BudgetProt) review site and wrote "Firewallet is way way better" 2 STARS!!!
That crushed the review stars average for the application and IS HURTING SALES.
This is highly confrontational behaviour, and will lead to retaliation. It was 
not a real review, it was a way to hurt a competing product, by LYING.

PLEASE STOP HURTING OTHER DEVELOPERS IN YOUR RACE TO OUTCOMPETE.

[android-developers] can replace default dialer?

[Fred Grott(shareme)]

I want to verify something..

I already did some app tests but I am coming to the conclusion that I
can nnto as non root replace the default dialer like one might replace
the HomeScreen.

is this assumption correct?

[android-developers] Re: Nightly Build for Emulator

[Evan Ruff]

Hey Al,

Sorry to bother you about this, but when I installed your package, I
can't seem to get any network access.

When I used the regular emulators, I get 3G without problem, but your
dist seems to say no connection. Any ideas?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: can replace default dialer?

[Dianne Hackborn]

You can replace the entire "dialtacts" activity.  You can't replace just one
tab in it.  This is regardless of whether you are running as root.

[android-developers] Re: Application gets killed "because provider is in dying process"

[Dianne Hackborn]

You can avoid this by not holding an open cursor on the media content
provider.

The onLowMemory() thing is not for this purpose.  In fact this may not have
anything to do with memory at all -- if a process you have a cursor on
crashes for whatever reason, your process needs to be killed as well.

Hey Al,

Sorry to bother you about this, but when I installed your package, I can't

When I used the regular emulators, I get 3G without problem, but your dist
seems to say no connection. Any ideas?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Make My App Available By Intent

[droozen]

No, when I try to call the intent with startActivity I get a Force
Close error, whether I try:

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction("intent.action.VOLUME_CONTROL");
startActivity(intent);

or

Intent intent = new Intent("intent.action.VOLUME_CONTROL");
startActivity(intent);

with this filter in my manifest for the other app it's trying to call:






I don't have any special permissions I'm asking for, and I'm not using
any special permissions in the calling app. I have a feeling that I'm
missing something very simple, but I can't find any documentation that
says I'm doing anything wrong. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

(I know, to avoid the error at least, I could check to see if that
intent is available and whatnot, but I'm just trying to test to see if
it can work so i can make the intent available from my app)

[android-developers] How to launch a viewer for common file types?

[Jay-andro]

Is there a way to launch a viewer for common file types like TXT, DOC,
XLS, PDF from within an app, like Gmail does. Maybe a Google Docs api
to pass the file to GD and have it open in the browser?

If there is a component registered that recognizes the MIME type, you can
use startActivity().

So, for example, one hopes that DataViz' Documents to Go is set up to
handle ACTION_VIEW or ACTION_EDIT Intents on whatever the Microsoft
document MIME types are, so apps (like email clients) can ask Android to
open them via startActivity(), and Android will know how to process the
request.

[android-developers] Re: Webview Question: onCreate always get called when activity comes to foreground

[UBZack]

Hi Mark, thank you very much for your reply.

I have some more findings to report!  Turns out it's not just
launching it from Eclipse that causes this behavior, but also
downloading the apk from the Android web browser, installing it, and
tapping the launch button.

I set up a basic hello world app, uploaded it to my site, downloaded
it on my G1, installed it, hit the Launch button after it said the
install was successful, and it opened the app, showing the root
activity.  I then hit the Home button, and re-opened the app.  It
opened and showed the root activity, but then I hit the back button,
and it showed the same root activity that was previously instantiated
when it first launched.

I have not tried this with downloading an app from the Android Market,
but I would say that this is a bug in Android that should be fixed,
specifically in its package installer, or perhaps just in launching an
app in general right after installing it.  Anyway, thank you again for
your contributions, and if you have anything else to add to my
observations I'd be more than glad to hear it!

Best,
Zack

[android-developers] Re: Make My App Available By Intent

[droozen]

I've been trying some other stuff, too, now. And this doesn't even
seem to work:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
startActivity(intent);

I would expect that to ask me which app I want to launch. Instead I
get a Force Close error.

[android-developers] How does an Activity being drawn

[samuel.zachar...@gmail.com]

Hi,

When android start an Activity, I assume it has it runs under its own
thread.
I would like now know how the Activity get drawn? Is it by the same
application thread? or it has a Paint thread created by the VM?  What
about UI handling (user presses UP/DOWN key) which thread handles
that?

Thank you for any idea.

[android-developers] Beginner Question / Calendar API

[andreas]

Hi,

I'm really just a beginner and fiddling a little bit around with java
and my G1. I'd like to create a calendar event from the phone and
learned, that there is no Android API for the calendar.

I thought it should be possible to access the google calendar via web.
I googled a bit and found some code to try. If I start it as a java
programm on my home pc, it works well and adds an event to my
calendar:

com.google.gdata.client.calendar.CalendarService;
import com.google.gdata.data.DateTime;
import com.google.gdata.data.Person;
import com.google.gdata.data.PlainTextConstruct;
import com.google.gdata.data.extensions.EventEntry;
import com.google.gdata.data.extensions.When;
import com.google.gdata.util.ServiceException;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;

public class TestMyCal {

/**
 * @param args
 */
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException,
ServiceException {
// Set up the URL and the object that will handle the
connection:
URL postUrl = new 
URL("http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/MYEMAIL/
private/full");
CalendarService myService = new CalendarService("exampleCo-
exampleApp-1");
myService.setUserCredentials("MYNAME", "MYPASSWORD");

EventEntry myEntry = new EventEntry();

myEntry.setTitle(new PlainTextConstruct("My test event"));
myEntry.setContent(new PlainTextConstruct("It might work."));

Person author = new Person("It's me", null, "m...@home.com');
myEntry.getAuthors().add(author);

DateTime startTime = DateTime.parseDateTime
("2009-04-08T15:00:00-08:00");
DateTime endTime = DateTime.parseDateTime
("2009-04-08T17:00:00-08:00");
When eventTimes = new When();
eventTimes.setStartTime(startTime);
eventTimes.setEndTime(endTime);
myEntry.addTime(eventTimes);

// Send the request and receive the response:
EventEntry insertedEntry = myService.insert(postUrl, myEntry);
}

}

Great. Now I tried to put that into a Android application:

package com.android.hello;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.google.gdata.client.calendar.CalendarService;
import com.google.gdata.data.DateTime;
import com.google.gdata.data.Person;
import com.google.gdata.data.PlainTextConstruct;
import com.google.gdata.data.extensions.EventEntry;
import com.google.gdata.data.extensions.When;
import com.google.gdata.util.AuthenticationException;
import com.google.gdata.util.ServiceException;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

public class HelloAndroid extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Set up the URL and the object that will handle the
connection:
URL postUrl = null;
try {
postUrl = new 
URL("http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/MYEMAIL/
private/full");
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

CalendarService myService = new CalendarService("exampleCo-
exampleApp-1");
try {
myService.setUserCredentials("MYNAME", "MYPASSWORD");
} catch (AuthenticationException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

EventEntry myEntry = new EventEntry();

myEntry.setTitle(new PlainTextConstruct("My test event"));
myEntry.setContent(new PlainTextConstruct("It might work."));

Person author = new Person("It's me", null, "m...@home.com');
myEntry.getAuthors().add(author);

DateTime startTime = DateTime.parseDateTime
("2009-04-08T15:00:00-08:00");
DateTime endTime = DateTime.parseDateTime
("2009-04-08T17:00:00-08:00");
When eventTimes = new When();
eventTimes.setStartTime(startTime);
eventTimes.setEndTime(endTime);
myEntry.addTime(eventTimes);

try {
EventEntry insertedEntry = myService.insert(postUrl, 
myEntry);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ServiceException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}

The program just runs fine, no errors (not using the emulator, not
using the G1) - but there is no calendar entry anywhere.

Any pro out there who can give me a hint, what I am doing wrong?

Greetings,
Andreas

You received this 

[android-developers] ListView not touchable in my Activity

[monn3t]

Hello:

I developed an activity that extends the ListActivity.
It has a ListView that binds to a DB.

Thing is that I can click on the items of the view only with the
trackball.  When I try touching the items or the view I can't, is not
responsive.

Below the view I have a button that works just fine in touch screen
mode.

I already tried removing the button (I thought that was it) but no.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Here is a snippet of my code:

public class Activity_CardList extends ListActivity {

private DbAdapter myDbAdapter;
private DbHelper myDbHelper;
private Cursor HolderCursor;
private String[] from;
private int[] to;
private static final int ADDCARD_DIALOG = 1;
private static final int ABOUT_DIALOG = 2;

static String barcodeNumber = "";
static String cardNote = "";
static String retailerName = "";
static String cardIcon = "";

// private ImageView storeLogo;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

[android-developers] StartActivity() in BroadcastReceiver

[yeons...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I'd like to launch one of settings app screen when received a certain
broadcast event in idle state.
For that, I added my event to PhoneAppBroadcastReceiver() in
PhoneApp.java (because it seems this receiver handles the misc events)
But if I called startActivity() in here, it does not work.
ex. startActivity(new Intent(this, NetworkSetting.class));

1. How I can start activity in BroadcastReceiver?

2. If the activity which I want to start is already started, how I can
check it?
I read that can use "NEW_TASK_LAUNCH" but don't know how to use it.
If you have an example code, could post it?

Thank you!

[android-developers] Application to determine location in home -- upstairs or downstairs

[Neil]

I'd like to create an android application that can determine whether
you are upstairs or downstairs in a house. My advisor does not want us
to use GPS because he says it won't work well indoors. Instead, he
wants us to build the app using the accelerometer on the phone. Can
you offer any ideas on how I can go about doing this?

I thought at first I could obtain an acceleration vs. time graph and
then integrate twice to obtain displacement. If the displacement
reached a certain value, then you would know the user has traveled
either downstairs or upstairs. However, this seems really
computationally intensive and it requires the app be running for a
long period of time, so I doubt I could build the app using this
approach...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: How to add SMS to inbox in android programmatically?

[sermojohn]

But, does anyone know how I could access the sms inbox from my phone's
database?
As far as I have figured out, this was better documented on pervious
version of the Android API.
I cant even find the constants of the perimssion that I have to add to
the Manifest file of my application.
Has anyone figured out these issues?

[android-developers] Re: Read the SMS already stored

[sermojohn]

You could probably, call a Cursor's method that returned the field of
the specified content's datbase table.
I have actually  faced the same problem today, while trying to build
an SMS application. My problem is that
when trying to retrieve any info from the Cursor, I get a Security
exception mentioning something about Permissions.

Do you have any idea what this might be? Should I add any permission
declaration in the Manifest file of my application?

Concerning the URI, I have read around that it is content://sms/inbox

Hope I helped, while it seems that I m looking for the same
information as you do.
Please let me know if you have any new on that.

many thanx

I was trying to install the newest SDK onto my new vista laptop, and
after downloading Eclipse (ganymede) I was following the instructions

[android-developers] What widget frameworks are available on Android platform?

[clemsongrad]

Folks,

I searched a lot and could not find answer to this.  I am hoping to
post it here on the developer group with a hope that fellow developers
can chime in.

Thanks

I am trying to find which mobile widget frameworks are available on
the android platform.  The main reason i am looking for these
frameworks is to develop code that is portable across different
devices.  I know of a few frameworks out there, like Yahoo blueprint,
opera mini and streamezzo.  Some of these are like the yahoo one is
not available on android.

My question is simple:

1. What frameworks are you aware of that are available on android
platform?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: content://sms/sent Read SMS

[sermojohn]

May be you should associate the two tables by using the destination
number of the SMS and not the destination name.
This is probable not stored for every SMS that is sent.
Opening up your source code, would help a lot.

[android-developers] textfields for objects like in androids maps

[puk]

After clicking on an Map Object, I want this speech bubble(like in
androids map application) showing the objectname and arrow-buttons to
scroll through the map-objects. I tried something with canvas. But i
have no idea of how to use canvas. And I'm not sure if that generaly
helps.
Another idea i had was using setMarker.

I want to show moving objects on the map(by using an arrow for the
direction as symbol).
I used the mapview tutorial to show objects.

Thank You for helping me.

[android-developers] Stopping all services..

[greggnic]

Hi,

I just started writing an application for android and have run into a
wall. I would like my program to wait a certain amount of time and
then stop all currently running services. This would be useful when
falling asleep and you want to listen to music for say 30 minutes and
then the music player turns off automatically. I have tried this bit
of code:

ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);

List myList =
am.getRunningServices(20);

for(int i=0; i < myList.size(); i++){

//Toast.makeText(context, myList.get(i).process,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
android.os.Process.killProcess(myList.get(i).pid);
 }

However, this does not work. Does anyone have a better way to do this
or any suggestions? Thanks,

-Nick

[android-developers] How could I put tab widget at the right or left side ?

[milton]

Hi all

Currently I could find tab widget which located at the upper side of
the screen. (ex. Dialer, Contacts)
How could I put the tab widget at the left or right side of the
screen?
I had checked the reference of SDK and some parts of the source code
but I could not find a way to do it.
Could anyone kindly give me advice or clue about how to do it ?

Thanks in advance.

Milton

[android-developers] Incorrect clip rect in onDraw()?

[Leisuresuit Larry]

Hi all,

We came across a strange behavior. The clip rect of our custom view is
getting reset to its entire visible region, if we change the value of
another view.

Below is a sample app to demonstrate the behavior:

main.xml:

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>







ClipTest.java:
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class ClipTest extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}


@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
tv.setText("Test");

findViewById(R.id.view).invalidate(100, 0, 150, 75);
return true;
}
}

MyView.java:
package com.test;

import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;

public class MyView extends View {

public MyView(Context context) {
super(context);
}

public MyView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}

protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
super.onDraw(canvas);

Rect clip = canvas.getClipBounds();
System.out.println("clip " + clip);
}
}

If you run the above app, MyView.onDraw() prints "clip Rect(0, 0, 320,
100)". If you comment out "tv.setText("Test");", then MyView.onDraw()
prints "clip Rect(100, 0, 150, 75)".

Why does setting the TextView's text affect MyView's clip rect? How
can we get the correct clip rect in MyView.onDraw()? Thanks for any
help!

Larry

[android-developers] Playback of dynamic MIDI?

[meantime]

For one of my apps I generate MIDI data on the fly.  Is there any way
to play MIDI data from a java.io.InputStream or directly from a byte
[]?  So far I've only seen ways to do MIDI playback from files.  Given
the continuous and dynamic nature of my audio there is no way I can
write it to a file first.

[android-developers] opening gmail attachments in an activity

[Bill]

I've got a certain formatted text file that I want to have a special
reader for. I can open it fine in HTMLViewer, but since it isn't
really HTML, the formatting makes it difficult to read. So, I've
created an activity to read it. I tested the reading part by loading
an example onto the sdcard, opening it in the activity and formatting
the results like I wanted and this worked fine.

But, what I really want is when I get an email with this file type, I
hit "Preview" for the attachment, it gives me a list of preview types
(HTMLViewer is always there and now my activity is there), then my
activity opens it and displays as it did above when reading a file.
The problem is that I can't figure out how to open the file in java.
When I log the intent it looks like:

04-08 21:24:42.760: INFO/LogLister(30942): intent = Intent
{ action=android.intent.action.VIEW data=content://gmail-ls/messages/
bill%40dork.com/367/attachments/0.1/BEST/false type=text/plain
flags=0x301 comp={com.dork.android/com.dork.android.LogLister} }

I feel certain that somewhere in the data part is the path that I
should use as file in

 new FileReader(new File(file))

but, I can't seem to home in on it. Does anybody know what it would
be?

[android-developers] Re: How to become root in emulator?

[tibigiur...@gmail.com]

Hi Meryl
You are always root in the emulator. That link is about how to gain
root access on a real G1 device.
I think the problem is you are trying to (re)mount a wrong partition.
On my emulator /dev/block/mtdblock0 is mounted on /system, and
remounting it with rw works fine. To make sure what partition you need
to remount use the mount command and see what is mounted on /system.


Regards.

[android-developers] weird accelerometer readings?

[Yuan]

I implemented a simple program to record the accelerometer values as I
move it around. When I'm NOT moving anything, that is, it's lying flat
on a table, the values still seem to fluctuate wildly.

Does anyone else notice this weirdness?

I'm pasting some of the readings below:

[android-developers] BundleException - not able to load this type of class, while porting Felix application to Android

[Padma shankar]

I am trying to port the Sip communicator application to android. This is
done by launching felix from the android activity. The other bundles are
installed by reading the bundles a Inputstream from the res/raw. The bundles
are getting installed.

The bundle.start() function is successful for bundles, which doesn't have
the Bundle-Activator constant in the manifest file. But if the
Bundle-Activator is present, the activator class fails to get loaded and
hence the bundle.start() fails with

BundleException - unable to load this type of class and a reference to the
defineClass function of the Dalvik vm.

Is the problem due to Dalvik vm not able to load the bytes. If so what is
the solution.

-Padma

[android-developers] Getting Preferences from Settings.java

[Travis James]

I have a settings.java file that has the following code:

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;

public class Settings extends PreferenceActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

addPreferencesFromResource(R.layout.preferences);
}
}

and I also have a preferences.xml file that has this:
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";>






My question: Is there anyway I can access the string values of the
EditTextPreference's?
If so, can someone give me an example.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Remote debugging ddms

[Androidphan]

Is it possible to use ddms over a remote connection?

I can run adb over a remote connection with setting ADBHOST=[ipaddr].
But when run ddms and try to connect with Eclipse ddms says:

35:40 W/ddms: Connection on 'debug selected' port, but none selected

Does ddms use the ADBHOST setting?

[android-developers] How I call startActivity() in BradocastReceiver

[yeons...@gmail.com]

hello,

I'd like to launch one of settings app screen when I received a
certain event in idle state.
For that, I added my new intent to PhoneAppBroadcastReceiver() in
PhoneApp.java
(because it seems this receiver handles the misc intents)
But if I called startActivity(), seems phone goes to panic.
ex. startActivity(new Intent(this, NetworkSetting.class));

1. How can I launch the activity inside of bradcastreceiver?

2. If the activity which I want to start is already started, how can I
check it?
I read can use NEW_TASK_LAUNCH but don't know how to use  it.
If you have a sample code, could you post it?

Thank you!
