[android-developers] Can't understand how to query ContentProvider - java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL
I'm trying to figure out how to get data from another app's ContentProvider. From the docs for ContentProvider (http://developer.android.com/guide/ topics/providers/content-providers.html) I got that the url format should be: content://com.example.authority/table_name I discovered the authority for the needed ContentProvider by going throughgetPackageManager().queryContentProviders(null, 0, 0); and then iterating to get the providerInfo.authority. To get the table name, I found the needed database in the /data/data folder, and did an sqlite3 .dump on it. But when I do a query: managedQuery(content://authority.for.app.i.want.to.access/ table_name, null, null, null, null); I get the following Exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL content://authority.for.app.i.want.to.access/table_name 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): at app.i.want.to.access.Provider.query(ThisAppsProvider.java:430) 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.bulkQuery (ContentProvider.java:112) 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): at android.content.ContentProviderNative.onTransact (ContentProviderNative.java:97) 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): at android.os.Binder.execTransact(Binder.java:287) 08-16 01:33:28.703: ERROR/DatabaseUtils(762): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.run(Native Method) Does somebody know how I can fix this?

[android-developers] Many Listviews problem
Hi,
I want to show many listviews in one activity. Something like
Textview
Listview
TextView
Listview
..
Every listview has different type of adapter. For this, I made the
activity class like:-
public class ListTestActivity extends ListActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.screen); // screen.xml file
setListAdapter(new CustomAdapter(this);
...
}
class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter {
Activity context;
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
...
}
In screen.xml file if I define Listview like:-
ListView
android:id=@android:id/list
I can get one listview with the custom adapter in this kind of
arrangement.
But when I replace it by android:id=@+id/list2 and use it as
R.id.list2, it throws nullpointer exception.
Any pointers for this problem??
Thanks,
Aayush

According to the docs, the following should work: Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_DIAL); intent.setData(Uri.parse(voicemail:)); startActivity(intent); But this just brings up the dialer without a number showing. Anyone know how to launch the dialer with the voicemail number (or otherwise lookup the voicemail number)?

[android-developers] Re: launching m3u playlist with intent
Well, OK, that's not entirely true. While you can't play an arbitrary m3u file, you can play playlists that are in the database (which may have come from m3u files originally, in which case there path is in the _data column). To see how, you can look at what happens when you put a shortcut to a playlist on the home screen and then launch it.

[android-developers] Click on Status bar notification switch to task in current state?
My applications carries on processing when the user presses the home key, and generates status bar notifications if something happens the user requested to be notified about. If a user holds the home key and then selects the application, it is restored in its correct state with the activity on top that showed when the user left. However, since the intent that is associated with the status bar notification is FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK and I put in the class name of the activity that launched the application (I assume this is what I must do?), the launcher activity is started when the notification is clicked. I can then switch the application back to the current activity by starting that active activity again, but then I seem to have two instances of the activity in memory, since I have to press back twice to leave it. And I suspect my activity stack is then messed up as well. I have set the launcher activity to be singleTask, but that only helped a bit. From my reading I thought this would just give the task focus if the launcher activity is not on top, but instead it gives the launcher activity the focus. Is there a way for a notification click to work more like the task switcher provided by long pressing the home button?

[android-developers] Doing something every second
Hi, I'm trying to create a remote control for a media player (communicating with a TCP socket over Wifi). When it retrieves information about the current song being played, it gets the current position and total duration of the song. Obviously, what I want is a MM:SS display of the current position. What is the best way to achieve this? I could use a thread which sleeps, but that's not very accurate. What is the proper way of making it update every second?

[android-developers] ScrollView vs. android:scrollbarAlwaysDrawVerticalTrack
Hi, maybe this is a beginners question, but its not about SDK setup, so in this group. I'm developing since Months, and now - finetuning the app, I am stuck with scrolling. However. If you know a good howto about scrolling , post it and your're done ;) If not please read below. The class View has multiple scrolling-related properties, so each subclass is actually aware of scrolling. So - in theory - there should be no need to introduce special Views like HorizontalScollView and ScrollView, right? Besides convenience, of course. LinearLayout some fixed size Views ViewFlipper RelativeLayout -- not necessarilty, any working thing would do. my Child, extending View/ -- may be large in x and y (sizing also at runtime dynamically, as will change the size for zooming) /RelativeLayout /ViewFlipper /LinearLayout My Question is very simple: How can I put a large child into a smaller parent, exceeding X and Y without cutting the child?*) Which attributes have to be set how? I am currently using ScrollView inside a HorizontalScrollView, which does not support xy scrolling at the same time. I'd expect the built-in scroll features to be activated, when a child view gets larger, than the parent allows. But where do the attributes have to be set? On the most-inner scroller or the most-outer scrollee? Are the scroll related drawables a must to be used, or just in case I want special-looking scroll bars? Very-most attempts failed to show scrollbars at all, only using the dedicated classes worked. Is the build-in scrolling related to layout_width and layout_height attribute values fill_parent and wrap_content? Does it matter for a common application (no widget) that the classes reside in the widget subpackage? It works, but is it intended to be used that way?

[android-developers] How to register for SMS database changes

How can I register for SMS database changes?
I tried:

}, null, null, null);
mCursor.registerDataSetObserver(mydataSetObserver);
where mydataSetObserver is implemented like this:
private class MyDataSetObserver extends DataSetObserver {
public void onChanged() {
System.out.println (1);
}
public void onInvalidated() {
System.out.println (2);
}
}
But when I tried sending a SMS message in the emulator,
MyDataSetObserver never get called.
Can you please tell me why?

[android-developers] Re: Android : Data Traffic switing between Radio and Wifi link
For being able to switch radio interfaces you have to make sure what a platform can support. These are the following possibilities 1. only one radio at the same time. Browsing, instant messaging type of data connection can be supported. User is not necessarily impacted by switching the radio 2. only one data connection but multiple radios can be up at the same time. Radios can be switched with keeping a Voip connection alive but with a small interruption (break before make, which means that the Voip connection is interrupted for a short time) 3. multiple radios at the same time. With usage of protocols like SCTP and mobile IP connections can be seamlessly switched (make before break approach). Android right now allows only one radio at the same time. But it is possible to modify the platform to support 2. and 3. -- Roman Baumgaertner Sr. SW Engineer-OSDC ·T· · ·Mobile· stick together The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc.

That's really impossible to say in the abstract, as you suggested in your OP. I can tell you that SAX parsing on big data sets is slow. I've had to parse some 100K-and-up XML files and it is not speedy. On the other hand, I've found that WebView has a startup penalty the first time you fire one up in a process.

[android-developers] Assets not copying to device/emulator (Eclipse)
I have a test project with a WebView that displays a html page (demo.html) stored in the assets folder. I've stored images and databases in the assets folder before without any problem, but for some reason now that assets aren't being seen. The code I'm using is as follows; WebView webStep = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview); webStep.loadUrl(file:data//data//com.test//assets//demo.html); When I run this the UI displays the WebView displays page not found.

[android-developers] Re: Doing something every second
I assume that you have all the needed information about the streams which you are going to play which means you have also the length information of the stream. When you start the stream start also a timer on your mobile device and run it down. If you pause the stream, try to retrieve the actual position from your player where the stream is stopped. I would avoid sending any information about current position information over Wifi because in worse case you won't be accurate.

[android-developers] Re: Screen width and height
It is strongly recommended that you not do anything based on the raw screen dimensions, but use layout managers to adjust for the screen size. You can easily write your own layout manager (deriving from VIewGroup) to have your code run every time it gets a new size.
