[android-developers] Fetch IMSI or detect SIM change?

[android-developers] Re: App name/icon problems on Hero after reboot
The standard platform doesn't do this. If this is only happening on the Hero, one possibility is HTC introduced some kind of caching that is broken. On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 9:40 PM, Robert Green rbgrn@gmail.com wrote: Ok so maybe not cache but the thing that bothers me is that once broken, it's unfixable. That says persistence to me. My update doesn't fix it phones that had the bad one installed ever (though it was never bad, just bugs on hero), but people who have never installed before don't have any problems with the updated version of my app. Wouldn't you say it's possible that HTC persisted something for their version? The other thing that bothers me is that a few apps have been fixed but the devs haven't posted any info about their workarounds.

People that have installed it when it had the raw string app label never seem to get it fixed. Even updating to the one you claim works doesn't work for them. It's like once it's broken on the device, the cached data never goes away. That makes we wonder if there is a way to clear data on one of the system apps that will reset that cache...

[android-developers] BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
I have a question about the background thread handling change that went into SDK 1.6. I read here that BG threads get placed in a scheduling class that can't use more than 5-10% of the CPU in order to keep the foreground responsive. Do system services get into that scheduling class? My app uses repeating alarms. It was great with 1.5, very reliable. Since the upgrade to 1.6, the phone seems to be dropping some of my repeating broadcasts, especially if I am doing something fun in the foreground like with WIFI when the Alarm is supposed to fire. I do not have any of the task killer programs that have been a hot topic lately. To be clear, the dropped alarm broadcast behavior is intermittent. I am not 100% sure if I really am doing something when it has failed. If the timer is a one shot, it seems to work better but there is no real empirical evidence here. My phone is usually in my pocket when I fire one of the one shot alarms. If my theory about system services in the background scheduling class is correct, then I probably cannot find a workaround or defensively code a solution. Will it be the same in 2.0? Have others seen issues with alarms and with the setRepeating method? I am looking for suggestions to troubleshoot this problem. How can I determine if the problem is the broadcast, if it is the repeating alarm creation, or if there is some other issue like low memory coming in to play. Any ideas?

Hi all group members,
I am facing a problem any one can help me regarding this.

and in onCreat (){
searchField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.search_field);

public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
//Here i am getting text from my search field and comparing with

When i pressed keys like (abc --- xyz or 0 --9 or any key) from my
computer key board or
keyboard which is displaying on right side of the emulator my code is
working fine. Currently I am using HTC Magic Emulator and Device also.
***Its workin fine for me**
But now move to issue--
when i touchEditTextfield a software keyboard launched and when i
pressed any key from my screen keyboard
its not giving me the events in onKey() method in other words its not
calling onKey(){} method. but this method is called on specific keys
like (0 to 9 and Delete key).
I have also implement keyListener interface and its 4 to 5 methods
like keyUp(), keyDown(),etc but when i implement keyListener
softkeyboard is not launching on touching myEditTextfield.
Any useful solution would be highly appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not using logging or tracing, at least I'm not aware of that. I'm using EGL/GL directly (not via GLSurfaceView) and it works on G1/Magic/ Hero/Droid. While playing with EGL config selection on CLIQ I've noticed a strange behavior. First config reported by eglChooseConfig is usually: red=5 green=6 blue=5 alpha=0 depth=0 but sometimes, for no apparent reason, the first config is changed to: red=5 green=6 blue=5 alpha=0 depth=16 when selected as first then VBO works. But if I select the same config when it's not reported first, then it does not work. But maybe it's not related.

[android-developers] Re: How to capture Soft keyboard key events.
Hi Banny, Hassan,
Even i faced the same problem and added on text change listener
through text watcher. But in this case I am not able to catch the
events of keys like caps, shift, changing from abc to 123.
Any idea on this how to solve?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi all group members,
I am facing a problem any one can help me regarding this.
I have an EditTextand a list of contacts. I want to search a
contacts on maching with characters entered inEditTextfield. In my
activity I have implemented OnKeyListener .
and in onCreat (){
searchField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.search_field);
searchField.setOnKeyListener(this);}
and i have also implemented the method like this
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
//Here i am getting text from my search field and comparing with
contacts and updating contacts list
}
When i pressed keys like (abc --- xyz or 0 --9 or any key) from my
computer key board or
keyboard which is displaying on right side of the emulator my code is
working fine. Currently I am using HTC Magic Emulator and Device also.
***Its workin fine for me**
But now move to issue--
when i touchEditTextfield a software keyboard launched and when i
pressed any key from my screen keyboard
its not giving me the events in onKey() method in other words its not
calling onKey(){} method. but this method is called on specific keys
like (0 to 9 and Delete key).
I have also implement keyListener interface and its 4 to 5 methods
like keyUp(), keyDown(),etc but when i implement keyListener
softkeyboard is not launching on touching myEditTextfield.
Any useful solution would be highly appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] how to call an Activity method from another java file
Hello,
i have following problem:
I have my MainActivity. In this Activity, i start a thread
(SaxParser in another normal java file). Now I want to call a method
from the MainActivity out of the normal java file? I have read
something of an Application object, but i only find things, where i
have to create a new Intent (...).
Is it possible to use the application object in the other normal
java file like that:
Second/normal/SaxParser-file:
public class XMLHandler extends DefaultHandler implements Parcelable
{
ConstructorOfSecondJavaFile( ApplicationObject o)
{
this.applicationObject = o;
...
}
...
o.callMethodOfMainActivity (int aValue);
}
MainActivity:
private int val;
public class MainAcitivity extends ...Acticity
{
public onCreate (..)
{
...
}
public callMethodOfManinActivity (int val)
{
this.val = val;
}
}
Thanks,
Stefan

Hi,
thanks for your answer. i try option 1 today, but i couldnt call the
funtion in my MainActivity class:
My steps:
in MainActivity:
xmlHandler = new XMLHandler ( MainActivity.this ); // -- is that the
Activity, i think so ??
in XMLHandler (normal java file):
Activity main;
public XMLHandler (Activity act)
{
this.main = act;
}
I now want to call the specific function, but i can't say:
act.callMethodOfMainActivity (aValue);
I also try to pass the Context, but first i dont think, that this is
the activity and secondly, the same error occur.
Thanks,
Stefan
PS: Is it also possilbe to use the Singleton Pattern? But the easier
way and also my favorite is option 1.

events of keys like caps, shift, changing from abc to 123.
Any idea on this how to solve?

Hi all group members,
I am facing a problem any one can help me regarding this.
I have an EditTextand a list of contacts. I want to search a
contacts on maching with characters entered inEditTextfield. In my
activity I have implemented OnKeyListener .
and in onCreat (){
searchField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.search_field);
searchField.setOnKeyListener(this);}
and i have also implemented the method like this
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
//Here i am getting text from my search field and comparing with
contacts and updating contacts list
}
When i pressed keys like (abc --- xyz or 0 --9 or any key) from
my
computer key board or
keyboard which is displaying on right side of the emulator my code
is
working fine. Currently I am using HTC Magic Emulator and Device
also.
***Its workin fine for me**
But now move to issue--
when i touchEditTextfield a software keyboard launched and when i
pressed any key from my screen keyboard
its not giving me the events in onKey() method in other words its
not
calling onKey(){} method. but this method is called on specific
keys
like (0 to 9 and Delete key).
I have also implement keyListener interface and its 4 to 5
methods
like keyUp(), keyDown(),etc but when i implement keyListener
softkeyboard is not launching on touching myEditTextfield.
Any useful solution would be highly appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Re: BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
No, the alarm manager does not run at the background priority, and when delivering an intent broadcast to an application it is actually pulled into the foreground scheduling class (else there would often be ANRs and such). On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 11:31 PM, Beth emez...@gmail.com wrote: I have a question about the background thread handling change that went into SDK 1.6. I read here that BG threads get placed in a scheduling class that can't use more than 5-10% of the CPU in order to keep the foreground responsive. Do system services get into that scheduling class? My app uses repeating alarms. It was great with 1.5, very reliable. Since the upgrade to 1.6, the phone seems to be dropping some of my repeating broadcasts, especially if I am doing something fun in the foreground like with WIFI when the Alarm is supposed to fire. I do not have any of the task killer programs that have been a hot topic lately. To be clear, the dropped alarm broadcast behavior is intermittent. I am not 100% sure if I really am doing something when it has failed. If the timer is a one shot, it seems to work better but there is no real empirical evidence here. My phone is usually in my pocket when I fire one of the one shot alarms. If my theory about system services in the background scheduling class is correct, then I probably cannot find a workaround or defensively code a solution. Will it be the same in 2.0? Have others seen issues with alarms and with the setRepeating method? I am looking for suggestions to troubleshoot this problem. How can I determine if the problem is the broadcast, if it is the repeating alarm creation, or if there is some other issue like low memory coming in to play. Any ideas?

You can implement some listener concept
write a interface in your normal java file
and implement that method in activity
then by calling that method in the normal java file you can make a
call to implemented method in activity class
Use handlers to do any Operations in the activity ( in implemented
method - other wise it will give u error)
May be this will help you a little.

[android-developers] Re: App name/icon problems on Hero after reboot
I'm not entirely sure the raw string vs resource string is the full issue here though. It might be part of the problem, but not the whole explanation. As Greg mentioned earlier, he never had his app name set as a raw string and he is experiencing the problem. On one of my applications I'm developing, I'm experiencing it as well with the app name always having been a resource. It's sounding more and more like HTC having done something funky with the package management. Especially since Dianne has been saying that stock Android doesn't have this problem. And all of my inquiries to HTC Sprint have resulted in nothing. Justin On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 9:34 AM, Robert Green rbgrn@gmail.com wrote: Justin, Thank you SO MUCH for testing this!

If you confirm that it's the correct name and not the package name, then that's certainly one of the bugs right there. People that have installed it when it had the raw string app label never seem to get it fixed. Even updating to the one you claim works doesn't work for them.

[android-developers] How will dev phone be able to run Eclair?
Hi All, I have read and double checked that there is theoretically no chance to have Eclair on G1 productive phone. Take a look at this site: http://androidandme.com/2009/10/news/g1-owners-could-miss-out-on-android-2-0/ I was wondering if there is actually a method to repartiotion the system partition so that Eclair would fit on G1 dev phone.

[android-developers] [Android 2.0] Accessing contact's phone numbers
Dear all, I'm trying to adapt my application (Personalytics) for the brand new Android 2.0, however I'm facing an issue while accessing contacts' phone numbers... What I need to do is to retrieve the name associated to a stored contact based on his/her phone number. At present I'm doing this in two steps: 1) from a phone number I get the corresponding ID of the stored contact (if present) 2) I retrieve the contact's name based on that ID I managed to use the correct CONTENT_URI for reading contacts by using reflection to be fully compatible with Android 2.0 (ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI) and the previous versions (People.CONTENT_URI). Now I'm trying to do the same for Phones.CONTENT_URI (Android = 1.6) and ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI (Android = 2.0) which is needed by step 2) mentioned above. But as soon as I try to get a contentResolver by using ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI I get the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL content://com.android.contacts/phone_lookup This looks really strange to me, since it should be correct (it is part of the official API)! Moreover, I tried to look at the API Demos project, in particular to the classes: com.example.android.apis.view.List2 com.example.android.apis.view.List3 which are still using the deprecated People.CONTENT_URI and Phones.CONTENT_URI and thus no data (i.e. contacts) is loaded (of course I have sample contacts in the emulator). - Do you have any suggestion to solve this problem? - Or is there another approach I can use to get the name of a contact based on one of his/her numbers? (This must work on all versions of Android) Thank you ;-) Andrea --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
That's good news. Thanks for the quick response. Here is a follow on... Would the resulting execution of my broadcast receiver from the AlarmManager broadcast go into the background thread pool or get into the foreground inheriting from the AlarmManager? I'm relieved to know that a system service will not starve and now I want to know if onReceive is sure to get all the CPU time it needs. On Oct 30, 5:51 am, Dianne Hackborn hack...@android.com wrote: No, the alarm manager does not run at the background priority, and when delivering an intent broadcast to an application it is actually pulled into the foreground scheduling class (else there would often be ANRs and such). On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 11:31 PM, Beth emez...@gmail.com wrote: I have a question about the background thread handling change that went into SDK 1.6. I read here that BG threads get placed in a scheduling class that can't use more than 5-10% of the CPU in order to keep the foreground responsive. Do system services get into that scheduling class? My app uses repeating alarms. It was great with 1.5, very reliable. Since the upgrade to 1.6, the phone seems to be dropping some of my repeating broadcasts, especially if I am doing something fun in the foreground like with WIFI when the Alarm is supposed to fire. I do not have any of the task killer programs that have been a hot topic lately. To be clear, the dropped alarm broadcast behavior is intermittent. I am not 100% sure if I really am doing something when it has failed. If the timer is a one shot, it seems to work better but there is no real empirical evidence here. My phone is usually in my pocket when I fire one of the one shot alarms. If my theory about system services in the background scheduling class is correct, then I probably cannot find a workaround or defensively code a solution. Will it be the same in 2.0? Have others seen issues with alarms and with the setRepeating method? I am looking for suggestions to troubleshoot this problem. How can I determine if the problem is the broadcast, if it is the repeating alarm creation, or if there is some other issue like low memory coming in to play. Any ideas?

[android-developers] Re: Updating one view also causes another view to update
@Mark I care because something needs to be drawn if the onDraw method is being called. If there are no actual changes to the view, then this is a waste of resources (probably unnoticeable) and I need to deal with this case specifically, which complicates my application logic a little (here though it is probably my fault - not a perfect design). @skink You are right, there is an issue with the layout, but while I can get it to work and not have onDraw called every second, the views are not displayed as I want to. I will play around with this layout issue some more and see if I can get a fix. Beside all this, I do find it unnecessary; characters representing numbers from 0 to 9 have the same height, so the layout height (which is set to wrap_content) should not change.

[android-developers] Re: Android WVGA support
drawable-hdpi-v6 does indeed work in the 2.0 emulator but not in a 1.6

not recommend using it.
I am still hoping to find a solution where I can just use drawable-

[android-developers] Source Code required for Android App
Source code is required for a simple content based app. It involves simple vertical scrolling and random access and retrieval of data from SQLite database. Possibly random numbers are used. On each view a single random fact is fetched from the database and displayed(possibly ListView with a custom adapter is required). The user keeps on scrolling until the app is terminated by the user. Here is the link to the application that gives an overview about it: http://www.amusingsexfacts.com/# Although the app is very simple in functionality but if there are any questions, please feel free to ask me on my hotmail id: maqsood_rah...@hotmail.com.

[android-developers] Re: Quick Contacts popup
The easiest way is using the new QuickContactBadge widget. You can add it to your layout, and there are helper methods to bind it using phone, email, or a normal Uri. http://d.android.com/reference/android/widget/QuickContactBadge.html This control will automatically give you the frame around the photo, and launch the track when clicked. If you're looking to launch the Quick Contacts popup manually yourself, you can use the API directly: http://d.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.QuickContact.html Just call QuickContact.showQuickContact() and pass in a target Rect area in screen coordinates. The Quick Contact window adjusts and points towards that target area. j On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 5:13 AM, Fedor Vlasov the...@gmail.com wrote: I can see a new Quick Contacts popup in Android 2.0.

[android-developers] Re: Android WVGA support
Right, you have to use -v4 for that of course. It's similar to what Dianne
had suggested above (using both -v4 and -v5), except v5 is actually v6. It
just seems that somewhere deep in this part of the Eclair code there is
something that makes it think that the sdkVersion is 6, not 5. Dianne, could
you please comment since this is the only workaround that works so far?
I would love to find this out myself, but since the Eclair code is not yet
available, it's hard to figure this out. I'm assuming the code drop is
coming soon.
I have verified that by using both -v4 and -v6, I can get things to work on
every platform.
For those interested, to avoid duplicating actual pngs/jpgs, I am using an
ugly hack. Here is an example
Folder drawable-160dpi:
example_image.png (the mdpi version of image)
Folder drawable-240dpi-v4:
XML file example_image.xml with the following inside:
bitmap xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:src=@drawable/example_image_hdpi
/
Folder drawable-240dpi-v6:
Same example_image.xml with the following inside:
bitmap xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:src=@drawable/example_image_hdpi
/
Folder drawable-nodpi:
example_image_hdpi.png (the hdpi version of image)
Yes, it's very ugly. Any better ideas are very welcome.

[android-developers] Re: [Android 2.0] Accessing contact's phone numbers
Could you post the exact Uri you're passing to query()? As the javadoc describes, you need to append a filter string to the CONTENT_FILTER_URI so it knows what to filter on. Uri lookupUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(PhoneLookup.CONTENT_URI, phoneNumber); Also, you might be able to skip your second step, since you can directly ask for the PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME column in the projection. j On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 8:05 AM, agirardello andrea.girarde...@gmail.com wrote: Dear all, I'm trying to adapt my application (Personalytics) for the brand new Android 2.0, however I'm facing an issue while accessing contacts' phone numbers...

[android-developers] Re: BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
Sorry but I still need clarification here. This new 1.6 feature distinguishes between foreground and background and would seem to alter thread priorities based on that characteristic despite all priorities being normal. Assume that when the broadcast receiver is called, another application might have the UI Thread by running an interactive window with the Android end user. In this case, does onReceive run in the foreground or background? Dianne made clear that the System Service is not starved and the broadcast is sent. It still looks to me like the resulting broadcast receiver may not be getting the CPU. Is there any way to defensively code for this situation?

[android-developers] Re: World Of Bombs (Action Game) ADC 2 Entry
Croco, fun app! Keep confident... I trust this app will be among the 20 finalist in the action game category. It is a great game to play when I need to wait for something and I need a time killer.

[android-developers] bitmap size exceeds VM budget
I'm getting some reports from the remote stack trace plug-in, with this error (see below) What I'm doing, is findViewById(R.id.instructionsBack).setBackgroundResource (R.drawable.instructions1); And then when I need to change the image, findViewById(R.id.instructionsBack).setBackgroundResource (R.drawable.instructions2); From the error, I'm guessing that the old image is staying in the memory and preventing the new one from loading? What's the correct way to do this kind of thing? Thanks, Richard java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget at android.graphics.BitmapFactory.nativeDecodeAsset(Native Method) at android.graphics.BitmapFactory.decodeStream(BitmapFactory.java: 363) at android.graphics.BitmapFactory.decodeStream(BitmapFactory.java: 212) at android.graphics.drawable.Drawable.createFromResourceStream (Drawable.java:663) at android.content.res.Resources.loadDrawable(Resources.java:1637) at android.content.res.Resources.getDrawable(Resources.java:535) at android.view.View.setBackgroundResource(View.java:6489) at com.stickycoding.FlyingAces.Instructions.updateScreen (Instructions.java:33) at com.stickycoding.FlyingAces.Instructions.onClick(Instructions.java: 52) at android.view.View.performClick(View.java:2179) at android.view.View.onTouchEvent(View.java:3828) at android.view.View.dispatchTouchEvent(View.java:3368) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent(ViewGroup.java:903) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent(ViewGroup.java:903) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent(ViewGroup.java:903) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent(ViewGroup.java:903) at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow $DecorView.superDispatchTouchEvent(PhoneWindow.java:1752) at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow.superDispatchTouchEvent (PhoneWindow.java:1206) at android.app.Activity.dispatchTouchEvent(Activity.java:1998) at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow $DecorView.dispatchTouchEvent(PhoneWindow.java:1736) at android.view.ViewRoot.handleMessage(ViewRoot.java:1547) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3948) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run (ZygoteInit.java:782) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:540) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] PendingIntent fired but not received on boot
i am having a problem in receiving a pending intent.It is fired successfully at the requested time but if i boot my device before that time, I refire the pendingIntent on device startup in a service, pending intent is fired (which i check in OnSendFinished listener of pending intent) but not received in the respective receiver(Log statements in the onReceive method of the receiver are not displayed ). I want to know whether pendingIntent that have been fired are canceled at boot time and do we need to refire them or do they exist and would work normally on startup. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: There is NO AVD Target...
I just had this problem as well. It looks like the SDK must not come with any platforms by default, so I did the following to fix this: - Run the SDK Setup.exe file (found wherever you extracted the Android SDK to) - Click on Available Packages on the left side. - Check the Platforms you need - Click Install Selected It probably took 10 mins or so, but eventually they were downloaded and installed. Now when I went back to create the avd, everything worked fine. Here's the page that helped me figure this out: http://developer.android.com/sdk/adding-components.html I hope this helps!

[android-developers] How do some services(like com.android.inputmethod.latin) start when the emulator boots?
Hi all,
I am reading the initialization process of Android system on the
emulator. I use adb logcat to see the internal output.
I have read according to the following order:
init - init.rc - zygote(init1-init2) - systemReady(start
com.android.phone and android.process.acore)
However, the log has some lines about starting other processes, such
as:
I/ActivityManager( 567): Start proc com.android.inputmethod.latin for
service com.android.inputmethod.latin/.LatinIME: pid=668 uid=10006
gids={3003}
I/ActivityManager( 567): Start proc android.process.media for
broadcast com.android.providers.media/.MediaScannerReceiver: pid=677
uid=1 gids={1006, 2001, 3003}
But I can't find the calling stack about those services and broadcast
receivers. How do those services and receivers start?
Can anyone help me?
Thanks very much,
Caixia

[android-developers] Re: There is NO AVD Target...
Hello! I had exactly the same problem. Changing the permissions on the directory where Android stores its avd and config files did the trick! (on Linux this is located at ~/.android/). sudo chmod 555 ~/.android/ On 30 Okt, 05:40, Nobody111 adam.ornst...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all!
