[android-developers] How to get the email address using the ContentProvider

[manoj]

Hi friends,

I would like to get the contact name, contact number, and contact

Can any one please guide me to achieve this.

Thanks,

MediaPlayer and VideoView definitely have support HTTP URLs for video files.

There is no single "contact number" and no single "contact email id" for a
contact. Each contact can have several of them.

Here is a sample from one of my books that shows querying the Contacts
content provider, including one that will return emails for the contacts:

[android-developers] Re: how to build adb.exe for windows.

[Kyo Yin]

thank you for help.i have built the adb.exe

and i have a question:
In my opinion, adb will send a 0 length packet after a packet if thie packet
length is multiple of the max length of endpoint.
For example, our endpoint is 64 bytes. So after every 4096 packets, adb.exe
should send a 0 length packet.

I found the adb.exe has already try to send a 0 length packet.but
1.in linux host, our usb analyzer can catch the 0 length packet.
2.in windows host, our usb analyzer can not catch this 0 length packet.

Did the widows driver block this 0 length packet?

BTW, For linux host, i use old framework of adb in target, The composite
driver can not run in ubuntu 8.04.
For windows host, i use composite driver which has mass storage and adb in
target.

[android-developers] Re: System crash problems

[Mika]

Hi Dianne, thanks for the answer. Although the problem happens several
times a day, I haven't still been able to find the reason for it nor
the code to reproduce it. I'll file a bug report if I do find a way to
constantly reproduce the bug.

OK, it seems in the advaced search I can get the result with

So why does the search in this forum only return the results that

[android-developers] Re: how and where to save SecretKey for encryption and decryption

[zeeshan]

i am just protecting some images (about 500) i downloaded on sdcard.
on the first run it downloads and write each by CipherOutputStream and
for the next time it decrypt those images by CipherInputStream.
a static key works at the moment

Yes, I also saw this note on the documentation page of the
MediaRecorder class. However, the note states that the
setVideoFrameRate method on some devices determines the _maximum_
instead of the actual frame rate. So if my HTC Magic device would fall
under this category, the frame rate of the captured video should _at
most_ be 5 FPS and might possible be less. The captured video however
has a frame rate that clearly _exceeds_ 5 FPS. So I do not believe the
note applies to my particular situation.

Android Gallery specifies a frame rate of 19 FPS.

[android-developers] Re: creating a shared jar library

[Mac]

  I've sufficiently understood about the reason not to support third
party libraries.
Goolgle apis as regular sharing libraries can add on %ANDROID_HOME%/
add-on and then Android Applications can use that libraries.
Like this, could I add my sharing library on %ANDROID_HOME%/add-on
directory? If I can't use the way, how can I share my library?

  Actually, I'd like to add my library on framework directory and then
edit platform.xml to use my library as a sharing library,
but because I just use Android Application Framework API, to make my
library, I thought I don't need to add my library on framework

[android-developers] Can’t skip account setting in GoogleLoginServiceHelper.getCredentials

[aby]

Hi,
I use GoogleLoginServiceHelper.getCredentials in my activity. There
are three buttons (Create, Sing in and Skip) in account setting page.
When I click skip button and click next, it will change to some pages
and the back to the account setting page but only have Create and Sing
in buttons. It seems I must register Google account in this page. Is
there any way to skip account setting page by skip button?

My code usage is as below, any suggestion is appreciate.

GoogleLoginServiceHelper.getCredentials(
this,
GOOGLE_LOGIN_REQUEST,
bundle,
GoogleLoginServiceConstants.PREFER_HOSTED,
null,
true);

[android-developers] Who is responsible for validation of layout xml file?

[Susan]

Who is responsible for validation of xml file when editing xml in
Android layout editor?  For example, when I set a negtive valut to
android:maxLength of TextView, it will be marked in red. ADT or aapt
is responsible for check?

Your help will be appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Error : Unknown URI: content://media/external/images/media

[Dany BREARD]

Thanks for your response.

So I try to make your code:

Bitmap sourceBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),
R.drawable.test);
Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(sourceBitmap, values);

- The first parameter of 'insert' must be a Uri:

public final Uri   insert  (Uri url, ContentValues values),
so I can't use sourceBitmap


- If want to create an empty file in the directory
Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI like:

File m_wav = new File(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI , "voicemail1.wav");
or
File m_wav = new File(Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI , "voicemail1.wav");

Eclipse say The constructor File(Uri, String) is undefined
maybe there is something to transform Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI to a
real uri ??

[android-developers] Re: Advice for speeding up my drawing

[CG]

Hi Andrei, thanks for the answer. here are my thoughts.

1.
I did not considder the string thing, and I must admit that I am a bit
sceptical about the perfomance gain of this.
On the other hand the garbage collector is more bussy than I would
have expected, i have taken care to create all classes only once, and
the collector is still quite bussy.

2.
I have no experince with this, but I guess it would make sence to this
before 1.

3.
is is something like this i would imagine gives major perfomance
gains, I hope I will find the time before ADC2 :)

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 Challenge

[Vassilios Kirellous]

Thanks Dan,

What happened was I sent a thread, and it didnt go to the board.. so I sent
another.
Yes, I'm working with Houba on this.

If we submitted our app before ADC2 rules came out - would we be exempt
then? Its not as if we knew about it?

We are really sorry for this fuss, but it is a big disappointment.

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 Challenge

[Ehab Bassilli]

Yes, my apologies also. The first thread didnt go through, so we created a
second, and then third, and then all of a sudden all of them were published
at the same time. :(

I guess its a bit like waiting for a bus to come in the UK - you wait and
wait, and then 10 come at the same time.


So what Vaz and I want to say is this:

We published our app on near the beginning of May 2009 in anticipation of
the ADC2.

Then the ADC2 results came out around 29th May.

We did not know that the condition they would impose on developers would be
that our apps cannot be eligible if we published them already.

We could not have predicted that, nor were we aware of that.

Therefore, would Google make this allowance to allow Developers who
published to the Android Market BEFORE May 2009 (in anticipation of the
ADC2) the chance to enter into the Competition??

Is that possible?

Thanks

[android-developers] Overlay ConcurrentModificationException (continued)

[Lex]

This post is in addition to:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/1459f065d3af1a5e

I have exactly the same problem and Doug pinpointed what's probably
the issue in my case exactly:

So here's the deal: I have a Vector containing traffic messages
(received from a server via UDP in an own thread). Each time a message
is received, I create a new overlay object and populate it with the
traffic messages:

public void receiveMessage(BinaryMessage binaryMsg) {


 TrafficMessage message = createMessage(binaryMsg);
 // adds message to vector
 addTrafficMessage(message,
CoCarMapView.trafficMessages);
 CoCarMapView.showTrafficMessages();

}

public static void showTrafficMessages() {
List overlays = mapView.getOverlays();
if (overlays.size() > 1) {
overlays.remove(1);
}
Drawable warningIcon = context.getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.sign_warning_small);
CoCarItemizedOverlay trafficEventsOverlay = new 
CoCarItemizedOverlay
(warningIcon);

// the overlay is populated here
trafficEventsOverlay.updateOverlay(trafficMessages);

mapView.getOverlays().add(trafficEventsOverlay);
mapView.postInvalidate();
}

public void updateOverlay(Vector messages) {
for(int i=0; i < messages.size(); i++) {

TrafficMessage message = messages.elementAt(i);
Drawable messageIcon = getMessageIcon(message);
GeoPoint point = getGeoPoint(message);
OverlayItem messageItem = createItem(messageIcon, 
point);
this.addItem(messageItem);

}
}


I don't understand yet exactly where the error is caused, that is
where to start improving stuff...

Thanks for your advice,

Lex

Hi Dear,

i encrypt some of the images but it takes so long for encryption and
decryption.
encryption of images in sdcard are just to void straight copy and a

please check my code below and advise how can i make it fast:

byte[] iv = new byte[]{
 (byte)0x8E, 0x12, 0x39, (byte)0x9C,
 0x07, 0x72, 0x6F, 0x5A};

 AlgorithmParameterSpec paramSpec = new IvParameterSpec(iv);
 try {
SecretKey key = 
KeyGenerator.getInstance("DES").generateKey
();
ecipher = Cipher.getInstance("DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
dcipher = Cipher.getInstance("DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");

 // CBC requires an initialization vector
 ecipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key, paramSpec);
 dcipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key, paramSpec);
 } catch (java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException e)
{
 } catch (javax.crypto.NoSuchPaddingException e) {
 } catch (java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
 } catch (java.security.InvalidKeyException e) {
 }

I'm using a custom Cupcake/Donut build (Cyanogen) and it uses a Power
Control Widget (from Donut) that enable/disable GPS in one click.
Is it a Donut feature?

switching to AES would be a good start (both for the security and

[android-developers] Re: Error : Unknown URI: content://media/external/images/media

[Dany BREARD]

If I try to create a file into Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI or
Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, and I test if this file exist, it response
"False":

with this code:

File m_wav = new File(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.getPath() ,
"voicemail1.wav");
Log.v(TAG, "Existe : " +   m_wav.exists());

I think because it's a path of database and not just a path !

[android-developers] Query: Packing resources into an APK

[Latha Shivanna]

Hii All,

In one of my applications, I am pushing few image files say "xyz.png"
into the device using "adb push " command. And I use these files in my
application by giving their exact filepaths (say if I have pushed them
into /data, I wud say /data/xyz.png).

So to short it down, i wud say," I have a .apk and to run this apk I
would push few files manually using adb commands and I use these files
in my application by giving their full path."

But my requirement is that I should not be pushing the files manually
into the device. Instead I need these images to be a part of my .apk
itself. And I should get their fullpath which are the input parameter
to my method in the application.

Is there any way to do this? Could anybody please help me in this. Any
of your help is highly appreciated!!

Please do suggest.

Thanks
Latha

I have a additional question then.
If I want to specify a background color for the text only, how do I do
that?When
I set android:background="#FF" I get a red color around both the text
and the topDrawable.

[android-developers] Re: Advice for speeding up my drawing

[Andrei Bucur]

Memory allocation can be very perverse especially if you don't know what
happens behind the curtain. From what I noticed a simple String allocation
implies most of the time an internal char array allocation (pretty obvious)
and many more that I can't now recall.

The rule is simple: If you can avoid it, do it. Any "new" in the drawing
method is BAD.

I don't know if I understand it correctly, but you can try setting the
background manually in the topDrawable image (ie don't make the
background of topDrawable transparent).

[android-developers] Re: Advice for speeding up my drawing

[CG]

apparantly so,

I replaced 4 more string allocations in the drawing routine, the
strings are very dynamic, so i have to update the values each time.

public final char[] legendText = new char[] {'0', '0', '0', '%'};
public int legendOffset = 2;
public int legendLength = 0;
public void UpdateLegendText(int value) // a value in pct between 0
and 100
{
legendOffset = 3;
while (value != 0 && legendOffset != 0)
{
--legendOffset;
legendText[legendOffset] = (char)('0' + value % 10);
value /= 10;
}
legendLength = legendText.length-legendOffset;
}

I went from the 170-350 to 135-280... 4 string allocations.

[android-developers] Emulator "overclocking"?

[Casper Bang]

While I really like the emulator and how realistically it mostly
behaves, at prototyping/RAD times I wish I could over-clock it and
have to wait less for it. Not so much an issue on a full size desktop,
but I do find it odd how slow it is on a Core II Duo 1.2GHz
considering the performance I get when firing up a full fledged
Windows in VirtualBox. Has the QEMU emulator been "slowed down" such
as to better mimic the typical real hardware? And if so, is there a
way to tweak this?

You cannot write to /data on production devices.

Files in APKs (e.g., assets, raw resources) are not stored as files in the
device filesystem -- generally, they remain in the APK.

You can get InputStreams on those via the Resources object (obtained via
getResources() in your activity). This may mean that you will need to
modify your method to accept an InputStream as input, rather than a File.

If these are files you intend to modify, you will need to use the
InputStream to copy the file from the APK to some location on the device
(e.g., openFileOutput()).

You can't.

At most, as another poster suggested, you can have a different color be in
the background of the topDrawable. Or, put the text and image together as
a bitmap (on-device or offline) and use ImageButton to display the
combination.

However, I suspect you do not want to be setting the background of the
button via android:background="#FF" in the first place. That should
also remove all of your focus and touch highlighting, as they are part of
the background.

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 Challenge - Is this allowed?

[Teo]

I think it's also a bit unfair to think like that. It was pretty
obvious they won't allow existing apps into the contest as apps made
without a deadline would benefit from an unfair advantage (in
development time and popularity). Also, i guess the point of this
contest is to promote innovation and the development of the platform,
otherwise how would Google benefit from this? For the record, i too
have a very cool app that was launched before this contest and that
would have had a bigger chance of winning than my actual contest
entry. This is the same reason why the contest deadline shouldn't be
extended, since those who finish in time would be disadvantaged and
not to mention pissed off.

Just my honest opinion :)

P.S. I'm pretty sure posting a lot about this won't change the rules
so... :)

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 Challenge - Is this allowed?

[Timothy F]

I believe from the very beginning it was stated publicly that it was
for apps that had not previously been published.  I was fearing that
they would not allow the entered apps to be published until after
ADC2, so the fact that they are allowing them to be published even
before ADC2 begins is good to hear.  Of course obviously Google don't
want to keep all these great apps out of the market any longer than
they need to.

Whatever date they announced the official rules, there will always be
people who published their app a day, a week, a month, or a year
prior, and who want their shot at the prize.  It may be unfortunate
timing for you, but I think there is nothing "unfair" about it.

[android-developers] Re: Speech Recognition

[Nanard]

A question to all VR specialist in this list :-)   (and Google
guys if they read tis)


VR works/will work someday  but

If I have a phone bought in the US for instance, my phone will
reconize American accent.
If I develop a VR application for the world.

Will my US phone have the necessary lib/param.  build in by default to
reconize other languages/accents ?

I don't need my US localized phone to reconize only US accent, but
other as well
And other localized phones (French, Spanish, German, etc) be able to
reconize other languages also.

Do you know what kind of app I have in mind ?  :-)

[android-developers] Views not getting Clear

[Archana]

Hi,

I am using 5 views in one LinearLayout my app.While going to each view
i am removing previous view by calling
linearlayout.removeAllView().
But I think this is not removing my previous view becoz when i checked
memory usage.My app memory is keep on growing.and Becoz of this i am
getting low memory :no more background process error and after
sometime app is getting hang and then it is exiting.Please help me to
solve this problem.How can we clear memory or how can we remove
view.Its very urgent.I am using system.gc() and also i cleared object
also but no use...

I tried to use different activity for each View but at that time low
memory is coming immediately.

[android-developers] buttons on mapview overlay

[Tony Wong]

In Google Maps, when you complete a search and go to map mode
browsing, you see two types of overlay objects. One of the overlays
contain a title, description, and left and right buttons. The buttons
have different states (normal, disabled, pressed down) so the overlay
must be more complex than the default provided one. Can anyone point
me to the right direction on how to implement this type of
functionality? The only point of entry I can see from searching for
examples is draw() in ItemizedOverlay, but is that an area where I can
add buttons? Perhaps they are using something separate from the
MapView classes altogether, can anyone enlighten me?

thinking there was a problem with the submission. Anyway, all of them
arrived at the same time - so our apologies for that!

Secondly, thanks for your responses - I'm glad the rules make sense to you.

Anyway, no worries. Good luck with your apps/submissions in ADC2.

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL - Threading Texture Loading

[Streets Of Boston]

You could do the loading of the bitmap in a seperate background thread
and generating the textures in your 'mGl' thread when this separate
background thread has finished.

I don't think you can use AsyncTask to do this, since the onPostExecute
() needs to be executed on the main GUI thread (which is not your
'mGl' thread, i assume). Instead you could use ExecutorService in
java.util.concurrent for that.

become easier. The strength of an open source platform comes piping
the knowledge of its users back into the platform.

[android-developers] Animation on widgets

[Daniel]

In my app I have a EditText widget. Since I need that EditText at
different positions within the activity I perform some animations to
move it around. I don't want to set the position without an animation.
The animation also has the fillAfter attribute set to true so the
EditText widget stays at the new position after the animation is done.
Up to this point everything works perfectly. But now if I scroll
through my app the selection of the EditText is always drawn at the
original position of the EditText. Is there any possibility to move
around the EditText with an animation and have it behave correctly
also when it is selected (has the orange border)?

Thanks,
Daniel

[android-developers] Re: Monitoring cpu charge/usage : is it possible?

[DaminouU]

Ok but I want to get these values in my application, and maybe use
them.

So is it possible to recover these values from a running Android
application?

[android-developers] Re: EMMA Code coverage and JUnit

[Gabor]

Hi Santosh,

When you are starting the emulator it is ok to stop the booting
process, because there is no emma.jar file installed on the system.
The emulator tries to find the missing file every ~5 secs. So if you
are executing the adb remount  and adb sync it will continue booting
up. (it synchronizes the image and the build system directories. Emma
jar and the requiered project(s) will be copied to it. )

One more thing:
If you would like to boot the emulator immediately, you have to add
the emma.jar into the system.img file. To do that, add the following
lines at the and of the "build/target/product/core.mk" file:

PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \
out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/emma_intermediates/
javalib.jar:system/framework/emma.jar\

Note: add these lines to the file before the make ... command(s)

[android-developers] Re: buttons on mapview overlay

[Zod]

Hi!

The easiest way to put buttons on your map is to use a RelativeLayout.
Put the MapView into it and after that you can put there other layout
objects too.
In the RelativeLayout the view you put after the map view can be over
it, so you can draw anything over the map this way, and you don't need
to worry about the draw() part.

Here is a simple layout xml I used to put a left and right arrow and a
textView over the map.





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














After this you can hide and show the MapLayout view as you wish, and
bind event handlers to it as usual (and also design it in eclipse as
you normally would).

Bye,
Zsolt

[android-developers] Changing view weight dynamically

[Huw]

I'm writing an app with two custom views. Both of which are doing
their job, but require more than half of the available area.

I'd like the user to be able to tap the inactive view, and it would
expand to 75% of the screen, while the other shrinks. I haven't seen
any way to influence a views weight anywhere but the layout xml, is it
possible to change it dynamically?

Cheers,
Huw

[android-developers] Toggling clicked item icon in gridView

[RickardF]

Hi all,
I have a gridView where I want to be able to toggle the item icons
when clicking them. So, when I click an item it gets "selected" which
is indicated by, say, bitmap B and when I click it again it should be
"unselected" and the item changes back to bitmap A.

The problem is that I cannot get the grid to redraw after I have
clicked one of the items so the clicked item never changes icon. I
have tried to call requestLayout() but for some reason it only results
in a two successive calls to the adaptor's getView(), both with
position zero regardless of which item I clicked. What am I missing
here?

Here are some code snippets:

>>>
...
final GridView myGrid = (GridView) findViewById(...);
...
myGrid.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent,
View view,
int position,
long id)
{
// Toggle icon.
toggleIconState(position);

   myGrid.requestLayout();
}
});

>>> From my adaptor class (The getIcon() returns one of two bitmaps depending 
>>> on a state var. (selected/unselected))

 @Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup
parent)
{
ImageView imageView;

if (convertView == null)
{
// Create the image view if we aren't recycling an old
view.
imageView = new ImageView(context);
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
}
else
{
imageView = (ImageView) (convertView);
}

// Use this position's asset group icon as the image view
contents.
imageView.setImageBitmap(getIcon(position));
return imageView;
}


Any ideas are most welcome.

Thanks,
Rickard

[android-developers] Toggling item icon in GridView on click

[RickardF]

Hi all,
I have a gridView where I want to eb able to "toggle" the item icons.
I.e when I click one of the items I want the cino to switch appearance
from, say bitmap A, to bitmap B. When I click it again it should
switch back to bitmap A.
I've got the logic in place but I cannot get the gridView to redraw
after I have handled the item click. I have tried with requestLayout()
but the only thing tht happens after clicking is that my adapter's
getView() gets called twice with position==0 regardless of which item
I clicked. The icon doesn't change.
What am I missing?
At startup the icons are nicely drawn so the getView() returns correct
imageViews.

Here are some code snippets:
>>
...
final GridView myGrid = (GridView) getViewById(...);

 assetGrid.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener
()
{
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent,
View view,
int position,
long id)
{
// Toggle icon
toggleItemIcon(position);

   myGrid.requestLayout();
}
});

>> The getView() of my adapter. getItemIcon() returns a bitmap depending on 
>> what state the item is in.

 @Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup
parent)
{
ImageView imageView;

if (convertView == null)
{
// Create the image view if we aren't recycling an old
view.
imageView = new ImageView(context);
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
}
else
{
imageView = (ImageView) (convertView);
}

imageView.setImageBitmap(getItemIcon(position));
return imageView;
}

Any ideas are much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rickard

[android-developers] Re: Having Android Documentation in Groups Pages area

[Dianne Hackborn]

The official location of the documentation is in the source tree, in the
source documentation files and various java docs related to all of the
classes.  We have been regularly accepting contributions to that code to fix
and improve the documentation there.

Someone could certainly copy the docs to wherever else they want, but they
are going to have a fair amount of work cut out for them to keep those in
sync with the official docs.

[android-developers] Re: Too many PNGs in res/drawable?

[markh23]

Thanks for the responses.

So from I got, it's the sheer number of images that makes this
scenario difficult for Android to handle?  And the size of each of the
images won't make (much of) a difference?  Say for instance, I have an
icon with 1000 states, and each image is only 100bytes.  Will this
still get me in trouble?

Thanks again.

[android-developers] Re: Overlay ConcurrentModificationException (continued)

[Zod]

Hi!

It's not clear where your code is located and called. If it's in the
thread which receives the messages, than you're modifying UI elements
from another thread which is really bad.

If your code is in the activity object, and you call it directly from
the network thread, than you also execute code in a thread which is
not the UI thread (very bad again), and therefore if the Overlay is
currently drawn and at that moment you receive a new message you will
try to modify a List while it is accessed by another thread (the UI).

There is already a facility in the android api which can help you put
your data into the UI thread in a safe way.

See: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Handler.html

Heres a simple example using Handler.post()

In you activity where your UI components are. Create a Handler object,
(eg: mHandler = new Handler())

Pass this mHandler object to your network thread. When your network
thread receives a message use this handler to send a Runnable object
to be executed in the UI thread. Eg:

receiveMessage(String msg) {
// send a runnable to execution in the thread which created the
handler
mHandler.post(new Runnable() { // implement the Runnable interface
public void run() {
activity.updateUI();  // <- what to call in the
handler thread.
}
});
}

If your thread is implemented as an inner class of your activity, you
can call the necessary method directly in the Runnable.run method.

I hope this helps.

   Zsolt.

[android-developers] Re: Too many PNGs in res/drawable?

[Dianne Hackborn]

I will guarantee you that each image is not 100 bytes.  Actually, I'll bet
that is more along the lines of the amount of memory needed just for the
Java and C++ data structures for the drawable and bitmap objects.  The size
of a status bar icon is 25x25; I will assume that this image is 32bpp since
without an alpha channel it very unlikely it will look good in the status
bar, so that gives us 2500 bytes per image.  Multiplied by 5,000 images,
that is 12MB of RAM.  For reference, that is larger than the entire memory
used by the system process after initial boot.  (Even if we were to take
your number of 100 bytes, that is still 1/2 meg of image data, which is a
noticeable increase in the system process size.)

And it's not just the crazy amount of RAM we are talking about.  When you
put your notification in the status bar, it would have to load
*5,000* images to display it.  That is going to take a hell of a
long time.  Actually, it's pretty likely this would cause the status bar to
ANR.  Repeatedly.

And once it's loaded, none of the drawable containers were designed to deal
with such an extreme number of images -- they were design with the order of
10s of images in mind.  Any change to the drawable will result in a linear
search through all of the images to find the best match.

This is just a totally unreasonable thing to do.  Sorry. :}

1000 states is also really unreasonable.

And there is really just no reason in the world to do this kind of thing.
You can freely update the notification whenever you want, with whatever new
icon you want.  You do want to be careful about not updating too often there
(try to target no more than once a minute, definitely keep it no less than
10s of seconds), but that is true regardless just for simple battery life.
And actually wouldn't you need to repost the notification when you want to
change the icon regardless of whether you have all of those images in a
single drawable?  If so, having the notification show one explicit icon is
going to be so incredibly more efficient than sending over a ton of icons
each time only one of which will be shown, that there really isn't anything
to think about here.

[android-developers] Re: need help regarding Scroll Wheel Zoom

Android doesn't support a scroll wheel -- you should be focusing on UI for
handsets, which don't have a scroll wheel.  (They may have a jog dial, which
would be expressed as the existing trackball and DPAD events.)

[android-developers] Maintaining text formatting after setText()

[mgpc]

Hi,

I have a TextView with some formatting applied in XML - in particular,
the text is underlined. When the text in the TextView is changed in
the code via:

myTextView.setText("newtext");

the formatting is lost. Is there any simple way to keep the
formatting, without manually re-adding the formatting via code?

[android-developers] Problem in Geocoder API

[falcon_whiz]

Hi All,
  I am having a real hard time with the geocoder API of android sdk
1.5rc2. In my app I am trying to get the addresses corresponding to a
location name by using the getFromLocationName method of the Geocoder
class. But the problem is whenever I call this method it returns a
null value. I have also pushed a geodb file containing some fake
addresses at 'data/misc/location' directory in the phone.

The format of the data in the geodb file is as follows :

address 1
latitude "38.898763"
longitude "-77.036655"
line 0 "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW"
line 1 "Washington, DC 20006"
locality "Washington"
region "DC"
postalCode "20006"
countryCode "US"
countryName "United States"


and following is the code snippet :
Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
List addresses=geocoder.getFromLocationName("1600
Pennsylvania", 10);

Please help.

[android-developers] Using AnimationDrawable with SurfaceView

[jeka]

Hello. I'm working on a game that requires drawing to SurfaceView's
Canvas. I'm using SurfaceHolder to obtain Canvas to draw to, and
perform drawing in a separate thread. Everything I draw displays
correctly except for this one animation.

Here is the animation definition (it is in res/drawable/
my_animation.xml:

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:oneshot="false">


 

and here is how I draw it to the Canvas:

AnimationDrawable ad = (AnimationDrawable) getResources
().getDrawable(R.drawable.my_animation);
ad.draw(canvas);
ad.start();

but only the first frame ever appears on the screen.

What am I missing?

Thank you

[android-developers] Urgent Help Needed: How to get AnimationDrawable to animate when drawing to SurfaceView?

[jeka]

Here is my AnimationDrawable:

res/anim/my_anim.xml

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/

Here is how I use it from the drawing thread, which is implemented as
an inner class of my SurfaceView subclass:

AnimationDrawable ad = (AnimationDrawable) getResources().getDrawable
(R.anim.my_anim);
ad.setCallback(MyView.this);
ad.draw(canvas);
ad.start();

this only draws the first frame of the animation and nothing else.

Thank you.

Brings up an interesting question: can the phone DDMS itself via
connecting to the appropriate socket for the DDMS service, or does
that only work when you come in from the outside via USB with USB
debugging enabled?

[android-developers] Can't Set SeekBar Minimum Width Programmatically

[Frank Maker]

I am trying to change the size of my SeekBar from the minimum to a
larger size so I can use the widget to select a value from a range of
values. I am able to change the size using the minimum width attribute
in XML:

 

but can not get the size to change programmatically:

 SeekBar valueSlider = new SeekBar(this);
 valueSlider.setMinimumWidth(150);

When I use the debugger for the programmatic approach it looks like
the mMinimumWidth variable from SeekBar (Red Square icon)  always
changes to 150, but the same variable from the View class (Blue
Triangle icon) does not change. However, they both change when I use
XML.

I would also appreciate any suggestions if there is a better way to
change the size. I would ideally like to have the width the maximum
width possible, but I'm not sure I can do that dynamically for
different screen sizes.

Thanks!

[android-developers] Emulator space limits

[KDiddy]

Hi,

I'm working on an app that includes some mp3 files that total about 50
megs.  The emulator says it has insufficient storage so I'm not able
to run the app in the emulator with those files in it.  I reduced the
quality and got it to work but the quality sucks now.

My question is, when I go to compile the app into my APK, if I swap in
the larger files(obviously with the exact same names) will the app
work on an actual phone?

Does the phone have limits with respect to file size?  I would be
surprised considering Tom tom just released an app for the iphone
which is 1.2 gigs.  And Apple is far more strict about things than
Google.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] Camera preview in activity view

[tinyang]

Hello.

I just got my camera preview working for my app, but it is not
appearing where I want it to appear, and I'm not sure how to get it
there.  Instead of using the entire screen for the preview, I would
like to put it inside a surfaceview in an activity xml gui.  What do I
need to change?  Here is my code:

public class TakePic extends Activity {

SurfaceView camSurface;

Preview camPreview;


@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);//hide window title


camPreview = new Preview(this); //create preview

setContentView(R.layout.takepic);


setContentView(camPreview); //set preview as activity content

camSurface = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.camsurface);

}

[android-developers] mapping gestures to buttons - possible?

[terryowen]

I have a love-hate relationship with my G1, with the inability to
remap keys at the top of the list.  I've looked high and low for
information, going so far as to try to decipher pages like this:

http://www.kandroid.org/android_pdk/keymaps_keyboard_input.html

and even reading the android platform code on github.  I don't see
things like page_up and page_down defined in the android keymappings.
And I suspect that the original scancodes are being assigned to touch
gestures.

TAB 0x9 0x9 0x9 0x9 0x9 0x9
0   '0' ')' ')' ')' '0' '0'
1   '1' '!' '!' '!' '1' '1'
2   '2' '@' '@' '@' '2' '2'
3   '3' '#' '#' '#' '3' '3'
4   '4' '$' '$' '$' '4' '4'
5   '5' '%' '%' '%' '5' '5'
6   '6' '^' '^' '^' '6' '6'
7   '7' '&' '&' '&' '7' '7'
8   '8' '*' '*' '*' '8' '8'
9   '9' '(' '(' '(' '9' '9'


Since the number keys don't have a third component could an
enterprising developer map to the unused caps for missing keys?  Not
that it would be all that useful at this point but it would give
someone a hook to build on.

Or if that isn't possible, how about a virtual floating task bar kind
of thing (maybe mostly transparent overlay?) that maps gestures like
the swipe up/swipe down and more traditional arrows and enter type
keys for the trackball?

This isn't entirely a nit-picky kind of request.  I have a medical
condition that in the winter makes my fingertips extremely painful and
the trackball hurts.  I'm guessing that there weren't many arthritis
sufferers on the Android development team, either.  You would think
that the touch screen should make things easier, not harder.

Even my old, old Omnigo and HP100LX had utilities to remap keys, so it
seems odd that there isn't some kind of app that could be developed.
I think if I had enough time (which I don't) I might be able to
eventually puzzle out a crude version of the task bar thing but I'd
much rather pay a couple of dollars in the market.

Thanks,

Terry

[android-developers] Context menu for whole screen or view in android

[Andcoder]

Hi i am creating a contextmenu for my view that is whole screen just
like when we longpress on calendar monthview or weekview  i tried in
below three methods


===
setContentView(demoview);

demoview.setOnCreateContextMenuListener(new
View.OnCreateContextMenuListener() {
public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v,
ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
menu.setHeaderTitle("Menu");
menu.add(0, 1, 0, "Add");
menu.add(0, 2, 0, "Delete");
menu.add(0, 3, 0, "Edit");
}
});
===
and i also tried with this

setContentView(demoview);
 registerForContextMenu(view)


===
and also

setContentView(demoview);
 registerForContextMenu(view)

in longpress
demoview.performLongClick();

===
though contextmenu pops up on longpress other events are getting
overrided such as singletap, onfling etc, is there any way to
implement contextmenu so that it gets popped up when clicked on any
part of the screen without loosing other events such as onfling and
showpress etc?

Thanks,

[android-developers] Downloading files from the browser

[gladys anne]

Hi all, I wonder if android supports downloading all types of files
directly from the browser? If not, then (1) what type of files does it
support?
Also, (2) where do my downloaded files go? I just tried saving a
picture, and it went to Pictures, what about the others?

[android-developers] Re: Android 1.5 SDK now available

[midtoad]

Xavier mentioned a bug that was supposed to be fixed for the final
release of the 1.5 SDK, but seems to still be in the 1.5_r3 release.
The New XML File Wizard does not work for me in the Mac OS X version
of the SDK. This is a huge problem for me as keytool relies on this in
order to sign an app.   There are workarounds for simply creating a
regular xml file, but the File Export tool requires this functionality
in order to create a new keystore for use in signing the app.

thanks
Stewart
