[android-developers] Re: open context menu for a specific item of the list
Thanks again for the reply! I think you have misunderstood what I am trying to do though..I am using context menus in all my screens and they all work OK. The onCreateContextMenu does get called and then the context menu opens normally... However, my question is how do I prepare the context menu if I want to call the openContextMenu() and open the context menu programmatically myself.

Theadbinterface got installed, butadbjust didn't work.
later i also tried to use the device under linux, set up the device
as

If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a rules file:
1. Login as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-

For Gusty/Hardy, edit the file to read:
SUBSYSTEM==usb, SYSFS{idVendor}==0bb4, MODE=0666
For Dapper, edit the file to read:

2. Now execute:
chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
adbdevices listed nothing as well. : (
open a terminal on the device, with ps, i guess theadbdaemon

but theadbtool just doesn't work.

for a Vector, so this works well.
However, when an object is done, I need to remove it and send it back

I've read part 3 of the marketplace agreement and I can't see an answer.

Would this scenario be allowed under the current marketplace guidelines? The only reason I'm wanting to do this is to allow the players to judge how much the extra levels are worth.

At Google I/O and in the forums, it has been clear that if you need
optimal performance, you must avoid memory allocation inside tight
loops. I'm curious about the best way to handle this in my use-case,
which I think must be fairly common. I need to access at most n
objects of type MyObject, I need to iterate over them during every
screen refresh, and I need to remove them and put them back in the
object pool randomly.
The object pool seems pretty straight-forward, just use a
VectorMyObject(n), add n copies of MyObject at bootup, and add/
remove from the end to avoid any memcpy or allocation.
The iterating is a little more difficult. I can use for(MyObject m :
myObjects), but this will allocate memory to create the iterator. I
could create a static final Iterator at bootup, but there is no good
way to get back to the start of the List. For now, I'm using another
Vector for active MyObjects, and a for loop with an int to get() the
objects and avoid allocating an iterator. get() runs in constant time
for a Vector, so this works well.
However, when an object is done, I need to remove it and send it back
to the pool. If I use Vector.remove(i), it has to memcpy everything
after i. I could use an Iterator on a LinkedList, which can remove()
in constant time, but I don't think there is a good way to get the
Iterator back to the start of the list without allocating memory. I
could use an int to loop through a LinkedList, but LinkedList.get(n)
runs in O(n) time.
Any tips on the optimal way to solve this? Worst-case, I assume the
memcpy called during Vector.remove() is a better bet over allocating
an Iterator inside my app loop, correct?
Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Best practise to deal with killed services?
You shouldn't really be able to force the behavior by opening many
applications, since only one can be in the foreground at the time, and
background applications are always killed before ones actively running
services.
You can certainly force this by starting up a bunch of processes running
services, in which case yes eventually there will be no more memory and
something will need to go.
The onLowMemory() callback happens a fair amount before any services are
started -- currently it is sent when the system is not able to keep around
any background processes. The next process to go will be a service, but
there is a bit of a hump in memory use before that happens.
The crashed service message is because all the activity manager knows is the
process goes away -- this may be because the kernel killed it, or its
process crashed, it can't tell between the two.
As with everything else, there is no callback that happens before a service
is killed, since this is done deep down in the kernel when it finds that it
is getting low on memory.
In general the management of running services is tricky because developers
have a tendency to leave them running for longer than needed, or even just
forgetting to stop them. They also often have memory leaks so as they
continue to run they eat more and more memory, leaving no room for other
things. So at this point the system is pretty heavy-handed with them. One
thing in particular is that after a service has been running for a while, we
will reclassify it as a background process, allowing it to be killed much
more aggressively.
As far as wake locks, the system automatically releases them when your
process goes away so there is no need to worry about them when you are
killed.
Finally, if you are indeed showing an ongoing notification while your
service is running, so the user is directly aware of what you are doing, and
can explicitly stop your service when they want, then you have one
additional facility available to you: Service.setForeground() will tell the
system that you count as a foreground application, something the user is
directly aware of, so your process will be killed much less aggressively.
Please use this API only in this case (look at the media playback service as
a the typical kind of behavior that should be associated with it). Actually
I am starting to see apps abuse this API just to force themselves to run
without those semantics, so we'll probably have to do something about it --
my current thought is to turn it into a no-op and add a new API that
requires you have an ongoing notification to be counted as foreground.

[android-developers] Re: Low accuracy of the accelerometer Sensor
1. Tried to use event.timestamp instead of System.currentTime Still the same result: device skips some measurements. Many times, this is detrimental to being able to produce an accurate drawing of the phone motion. Some important acceleration peaks are missed. One way to combat this problem may be having the user repeat the motion several times or have him initially draw what they think the motion is on the screen. This could be used to supplement some missing data. 2. Subtracting G from different axes based on the phone's orientation may not be a good idea. The reason is that the orientation measurements also fluctuate somewhat wildly when the phone is moved in XY plane. On some measurements fluctuation reached 30-45 degrees. Makes me wonder if the measurements of acceleration and orientation are done by 1 sensor unit. see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503055 At any rate, this G subtraction would introduce an additional significant error, I think. Also, I have been filtering G with an additional orientation sensor as getOrientation is not working. I used the following formulae to calculate adjustments due to G: double adjX = GRAVITY_EARTH * Math.sin(roll); double adjY = GRAVITY_EARTH * Math.sin(-pitch); double adjZ = GRAVITY_EARTH * Math.cos(roll) * Math.cos(pitch); Where GRAVITY_EARTH was obtained through calibration. 3. I have been plotting Accel X,Y against t and displacement plot XY with Gnu Plot. That is a very nice tool! Allows to plot in 3D too. We limited motion to the table top plane in 2D till other issues can be resolved. 4. We had some luck with drawing circular motion. One thought was that the sensor has centripetal acceleration in addition to the normal phone accel. The phone is applied centripetal force, not the measuring sensor part inside. Unfortunately, the results for other gestures were more mixed. For example, drawing letter M somehow produced an M like plot moving in right to left direction versus it was drawn right to left.

We are finding gross inconsistencies in the actual data output by the sensor. Also, sampling rates vary greatly from 8 to 200 millis. (using System.currentTimeMillis()) Specifically, when we try to draw a circle with G1 flat on the table all the time (filtering out gravity accel 9.8), most of the time we would get a plot of phone's position that is not a circle at all. Lots of times, it would be close to a straight line. Sometimes, it would start drawing an arc, but would not close the circle shooting off in a random direction. We tried to eliminate the time variable, by substituting a constant time sampling rate (10 millis) to calculate phones position, but the result was very close to what we had before (shapewise). Also, the acceleration in Z direction when the phone is displaced lying flat on a table (XY plane) varies too by +/- 2 units which is a lot. I do not think it is an error in our code, as we have checked it many times. If there were an error indeed and the accelerometer worked properly, we would see a consistently wrong depiction of the phone's movement. Unfortunately, repeating the same movement (circle) would produce sometimes wildly differently shaped plots. It all comes down to us wanting to know if that is indeed the case that the G1 accelerometer is very unreliable and inconsistent device when used for more or less precise measurements? Is there some documentation/facts paper that would tell us just how reliable accelerometer is? Thanks for you help!

Hi Yusuf, My requirement is very simple.I want to send a plain text to the same application of another android user. Can you tell me more about SIP. Can you give me some useful link.

Mobile yusuf.s...@t-mobile.com wrote: Finding or installing aJADEserver, and using jChat is one way, but I take it from your post(s) that this is an obstacle. In that case, another option is SIP, which may (or may not) suit your purposes. There are a number of SIP clients ported to Android, and there are SIP servers out there that you can use for free.

Have the link as http://my.web.page./my_clip.mp4 on your webpage. When the user clicks on it, the link would be passed to the mediaplayer.

[android-developers] Re: Avoid Failed Binder Transaction
There is definitely a bug here and I think it's within Android. I do not get an error stacktrace or anything but my application will just completely freeze and it won't continue on and within a few minutes I will see the Failed Binder Transaction. The exact line it's freezing at is Process process = Runtime.getRuntime ().exec(SOME COMMAND); It is very intermittent but after calling that line a number of times, the application will freeze with no indications of what's wrong. Any help? Any different way of doing this?

[android-developers] Re: Why the duration of clip is differen between VideoView.getDuration and MediaMetadataRetriever.extractMetadata(MediaMetadataRetriever.METADAT A_KEY_DURATION)
Correct. When I want to get the duration, method #2 is right. matadata may be wrong from method #1. When I want to get the ID tag information, method #1 is better as Method #2 has not given out such API as Title, Aurthod, etc. Thanks Macro.
