[android-developers] Service questions
Hi, I have few question regarding running a service in background Can we control User interface through service ? how this can be done ? Can you provide any code snippet ?. My understanding is that if service is already running then Activity on create doesn't create any new instance of intent ,this call is neglected. how can we know a service is already running ?

Something to laugh at ;) Some 2-3$$ But I do not have to live off it, as android development being my hobby ATM. I think it depends on nature of you application.

[android-developers] Call blocking application
Hi I am developing a call blocking application for android. What i've achieved so far is that my application gets informed whenever there is some incoming call. Now i want my application to handle the incoming call instead of default android application. So for this, i am trying to kill the android phone process. Please tell me can i do so. If not, then how can i reject the incoming call.. Best regards, Abdul Qavi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Unable to reject the incoming call
Thank you Bibek for your respnose Dear Bibek, I've already googled this issue so many times, and i came across some posts which say it is not possible yet. But i get confused when i see some applications which are already developed like GBlocker, which you can follow at http://bubiloop.com/android-communication-gblocker Hope you don't mind on my this question... What i want to do is to block incoming call Pane, so that it does not appear on incoming calls. Thanks and best regards. Abdul Qavi On Apr 3, 7:22 pm, Kumar Bibek wrote: > Not possible.

[android-developers] Re: UI android question/problem
Dig deeper in the ListView documentation... Look into adding a header
view [the method is like ListView.addHeaderView(View) or something..
verify this before using it].. You can use the header view for the +
Add A Place link and then the contents of the List will be the Places.
Hope this helps!

[android-developers] Re: Google Maps API: How to detect when the user has stopped panning the map
JP- Thanks for your feedback! It has been very enlightening. Overriding draw() sounds like a great idea that would cover any possible form of interaction with the Map. Just to make sure I'm clear on the basic idea here: you're saying create an additional, empty MapOverlay, and purely using that Overlay to track motion on the map? Or would it be OK to use my already existing, subclassed ItemizedOverlay to do this? > There's a residual chance that you don't receive that final .draw() to > trigger the call for data when it would be warranted. A Thread that > checks for such cases at, say, 200ms intervals, could be used to pick > up such cases. Or, use that Thread exclusively to monitor the speed at > which the map moves. I don't understand... Why would I not receive the final draw() call? Doesn't the Map HAVE to draw itself? If I don't receive the final draw() call, that means the Map wouldn't be getting drawn at that final point where the Map comes to a rest [correct? If I'm subclassing the Overlay and the Overlay needs to draw itself to ensure all its items are visible--this would be proper behavior--if I don't get the final draw, no one does that doesn't make sense...] Kinda a pain in the ass that we have to be so hacky to achieve such key functionality!

1. Extend the Activity class 2. Put 4 spinners in the layout file. 3. Initialize them in the onCreate method Do whatever you want after that. I am still not sure what you want.

[android-developers] Re: Upgrading of Applications
I haven't had any issues upgrading my app through the market. In fact I haven't had any issues at all. Once your app is on the market, you'll have an option to upgrade it. When you do upload your upgrade, anyone who has your app installed will get a notification automatically. If they go to select the upgrade notification in the toolbar it will go directly into the market app and display your app with upgrade available next to its name. The user simple selects it to update the app. Its all very simple and well designed. My only gripe is that the developer console is limited in terms how you can interface with it (ie more images, more room for description, search tags, more catagories, ect.) Hope this helps!

Re: [android-developers] Re: Splash Screen Appears only once
No Yahel,,even putting splash screen code in onStart() doesnt solve the
problem.
I guess only onResume() is triggered everytime activity shown.But that is
not
right place to display splash screen.

Hi Could someone please give me a good link that teaches how to use list view in android. Basically I have an array with names of people which I wanna display on the screen.

[android-developers] Maintaining a free and paid version & maybe other version
I used to be a C/C++ programmer before getting in to android. I am not sure how people maintain 2 versions of a program without using #ifdef preprocessor macros. Right now I am changing the package name in eclipse and changing the code manually, but this seems really inefficient.

[android-developers] Re: Google Maps API: How to detect when the user has stopped panning the map
1. Here's my initial thoughts (but strike that, it won't be sufficient) Subclass MapView, and override onTouchEvent() as well as onTrackballEvent(). The latter to cover cases where users use the trackball to manipulate the MapView. A MotionEvent is passed to these methods which allows the capture of ACTION_UP events, among others. Read out the map center with MapView.getMapCenter(). I haven't verified this - you might receive ACTION_UP events when the user operates the zoom controls. This shouldn't hurt with your particular use case, because map zooming anchors at the map center. An extra challenge might be relating to pinch-to-zoom. You may have to get a device that allows you to study how the sequence of calls to onTouchEvent() occur. 2. ...insufficient, because in many cases the map center will keep on be moving on, after the ACTION_UP event, before it eventually settles in a location. What I would try then is the indirect method of tracking the map center in an overridden MapOverlay.draw(). You can determine the speed at which the map moves, and when it settles down at a threshold, execute that call for fresh data. This is a general solution, i.e. will also cover pinch-to-zoom, users not lifting the finger while moving the map center around, the use of the trackball, and all sorts of other ways to manipulate the map, including you calling MapController.animateTo(). There's a residual chance that you don't receive that final .draw() to trigger the call for data when it would be warranted. A Thread that checks for such cases at, say, 200ms intervals, could be used to pick up such cases. Or, use that Thread exclusively to monitor the speed at which the map moves.

[android-developers] Multiple Activity History Management
I've searched through the postings and believe this is a unique case where it is appropriate to ask for feedback. Take the following example: Program contains 3 activities : A, B, C and one service: S The launch of the activities is as follows: B->C S->A Therefore activity B and C are part of a separate execution than what the service launches (activity A). The problem: User launches B from the launcher, navigates to C and presses the 'home' key (the history stack is now B->C). Sometime in the future the service launches activity A, and upon exiting activity A the user is now presented with activity C which is not the desired intent. Using "no history" is not an option on B/C because I want the user to be able to navigate 'back' from C to B. My question to the forum is how to setup the project such that when A is launched, the activity stack is always A, and not B->C->A or B->A. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

If I try to run the getUnitProperties() method outside of the Thread, I get
a NullExceptionPointer AND the Log.i for onServiceConnected() shows up in
the log after the exception.

[android-developers] Re: Service Object Availability between Activities
It looks like you are trying to access the connection before the
onBind() method is called?
You should NOT be sleeping the thread. You should be returning, and
then picking up your work once onBind() is called.
You're actually blocking the service from running until you do return,
since it needs to run in that same thread.

Re: [android-developers] Re: how to DEBUG build an APK?
On Mon, Apr 5, 2010 at 11:31 AM, HeHe wrote: > OR, i should not run a debug build on a real device and hope map api > works... You seem to think that there is a difference between a debug build and a release build, when there isn't. The code itself is always the same, whether you use "Run" or "Debug" in Eclipse, or whether your compile with Ant with the "debug" or "release" target. Even if you export a release package from Eclipse, the code is still the same. What changes are: - debuggable=true in the manifest. What this does is make the application accept debugger connection. It's not needed in the emulator because the emulator has a "debug" build (devices, unlike applications, do have debug/release builds) and those let applications accept debuggers always. On production devices (release builds) they do not (for security reason) so you need to explicitly tell the system that your app is debuggable. - Run/Debug session from Eclipse means only that, in Debug mode, a debugger is automatically connected to the application for you. Everything else, including the way the application is started on the device is the same. - Exporting a release application from Eclipse (or building with the "release" target of Ant) only signs the application differently, using your own certificate (that you must create to ship your app). This requires you to manually enter your password, which is cumbersome for successive debugging, so instead the application is signed with a certificate that's automatically created with a known password (so that you are not prompted for it every time you compile, which is everytime you save a file in Eclipse) Hope that clears (some) things up.

[android-developers] Re: Device Seeding Program for Top Android Market Developers
I got the Droid last week and I am in the same boat that I don't want to sign up with Verizon. I know I can use Droid over WiFi, but I can't use it for testing actual phone related app functionality until I sign up with Verizon. If anyone wants to trade their N1 with Droid, please shoot me an email. I will be more than happy to make the switch as I am already a T-Mobile customer and can swap my SIM from my existing Android phone to N1 for all kinds of testing.

[android-developers] Initializing a custom view via XML
As the title says, i am trying to use a custom view i have created and
initializing the size of it using the above xml code snippet located
inside my layout folder.:
The height and width of my custom view doesnt seem to work. i have to
manualy hard code it to adjust and see my custom view using the bit of
code below located on my main activity class:
rssText = (ScrollingText) findViewById(R.id.rss);
rssText.setWidthHeight(200,50);
Code below is the ScrollingText methods.
Constructor:
public ScrollingText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
textPaint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
textPaint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
textBoxPaint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
textBoxPaint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
textPaint.setTextSize(20);
}
public void setWidthHeight(int width, int height){
this.height = height;
this.width = width;
}
private void drawTextBox(Canvas c) {
// TODO: Experiment with these co-ordinates
c.drawRect(10, 0, width - 10, height, textBoxPaint);
}
private void drawTextRss(Canvas c) {
int textHeight = (int) textPaint.getTextSize();
printDebug("text height = "+ textHeight);
c.drawText(text, 10, height + 10, textPaint);
//c.drawText("Hello, why doesnt this work", 10, 50,
textPaint);
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onDraw(canvas);
drawTextBox(canvas);
drawTextRss(canvas);
setVisibility(VISIBLE);
}
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
{
setMeasuredDimension(width,height);
}
I hope my explanations and code is enough to help me figure out how i
can set the size of the custom view from the xml layout file.
Not sure why android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" doesnt ??

[android-developers] application installer
My company is developing a new device that will run on Android. I'm tasked to develop the software installation process, including application installations and updates as well as system software updates. I want to leverage as much as possible from the Android SDK. I'm looking for any advice or references to help me get started. I've downloaded the source code for Android 2.1 and have been tracing the source code path for software installations via adb. The path has taken me through adb client -> adb server -> adb deamon - > PackageManagerService -> installd. I'm thinking my software update process will begin with downloading an update package to our device's SD card. Then, if the update package contains apk files to install, I guess I'll have to develop a package installer app that get the apk files individually and command PackageManagerService to install them similar to how adb does? If my update package has system software to update, such as a new version of Android, I'll have to reboot the system in recovery mode and somehow make it install the system software components? Am I on the right track or totally off? I'd appreciate any advice or pointers to related reference docs or examples. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Google Maps API: How to detect when the user has stopped panning the map
Hello, I'm running into the exact same issue you are, I need a way to figure out when the user finishes moving the map around so I can fetch fresh data from a XML source. This is really easy to do using the Maps API for Javascript, but the Android Maps API doesn't have anything like it. I've been researching for a few hours and this solution you posted here is the only one I've found to this problem, this sounds like a bit of a hack though since you'd probably have to use an additional Overlay that can handle the event on the MapView, it sucks that there isn't something more elegant. The alternative I found is to use a WebView that can handle the Javascript version instead of a MapActivity... which may work for my purposes, but no clue if it's what you're looking for.

[android-developers] Enabling download of a particular file (extension) in native android browser
Hello, This is my first post here. Hope i find some help :). So I have an application which opens file with extentions .ttk (this extention is an example). When i browse to my site and try to open these files by clicking on links for them, the browser download fails saying that the file type is not supported. So here are my questions, 1. Is there a to enable download of these files in the native browser 2. If it can be done then, can the browser automatically broadcast an intent to view the downloaded file (on download completion of course) for which my application has a filter to accept and view.

[android-developers] UI android question/problem
Hi,
I'm trying to recreate the UI screen called 'My Places' that is used
in the Weather Channel app. I'd attach a screenshot of it but I'm not
sure if I can when posting here. It seems they're using two listviews
one on top of the other, but I'm not sure for certain. Could anybody
confirm this for me? If they are doing this, how is this done? I've
tried to implement this, but without full success. My top listview
'Add a place' 'comes up correctly, but the bottom listview will not
appear/populate for me? I shall attach my code so far..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Question about stopping AlarmManager.
I think Android 1.5 has a bug where it does not call onDelete. If you
are running 1.5, you should implement something in your onReceive()
that is similar to this:
final String action = intent.getAction();
if (AppWidgetManager.ACTION_APPWIDGET_DELETED.equals(action)) {
final int appWidgetId =
intent.getExtras().getInt(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID,
AppWidgetManager.INVALID_APPWIDGET_ID);
if (appWidgetId !=
AppWidgetManager.INVALID_APPWIDGET_ID) {
this.onDeleted(context, new int[] { appWidgetId
});
}
}

[android-developers] IPv6 Problem solved
Hi, Just do document it here (as suggested by evancharlton on freenode #android-dev), so it's googlable: On my Debian Lenny x86_64 machine, both the eclipse plugin and the ddms standalone application were unable to connect to the adb daemon. "adb devices" showed both the emulator and my milestone, so that connection was okay. ddms and eclipse both kept spitting out the following messages every second: 57:29 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 1 57:30 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 2 57:31 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 3 57:32 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 4 57:33 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 5 57:34 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 6 57:35 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 7 57:36 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 8 57:37 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 9 57:38 E/DeviceMonitor: Connection attempts: 10 [...] I tried this for 5 minutes and longer without any connection. I tried all the usual workarounds, including "adb reset" in eclipse, "adb kill-server" from command line, and rebooting, and asked on the abovementioned IRC channel. After hours of trying and googling, I suspected it to be an IPv6 problem, as I found some reports some IPv6 problems under Windows. However, editing /etc/hosts in analogy to the windows solution did not solve my problem. Some tries and googling later, I found the solution: Adding the jvm argument -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to both the ddms shell script and the eclipse.ini vm arguments solved the problem for eclipse and ddms. I hope this helps others to solve this problem, which annoyed me for more than 6 hours now when trying to get sdk_r05 to run, and an equal amount of time when I had my first try using sdk_r04 some weeks ago. My hope was that r05 fixes that problem, which is not really true, it seems. HTH, Markus -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: how to DEBUG build an APK?
DEBUG mode doesn't factor into it and gmaps doesn't care.
AFAIK if you are simply trying to change the map key so it works on
the emulator or the device, then this is a reasonable way to do it.
So, to reiterate, it *does not* matter if you are running in debug
mode or not. The emulator uses the same generated key all the time
with the same alias and you use the same key all the time with the
same alias when you deploy... so, problem solved. If you have a team
of people all needing dev mode, then simply share the same dev
keystore.

[android-developers] Re: How do I get the MD5 fingerprint of my application certificate through code?
Actually, the package manager would be able to check using the API. The only thing that was at question was whether the byte sequence included anything beyond the certificate or not. We know the API doesn't. Actually, what I'd like to know is whether it includes the certificate, or just the public key from the certificate! You've effectively answered the first question, at least for now. But since the API doesn't say -- you can't really depend on the bytes anyway. All you can really do with them is the comparison. The issues around being able to keep secrets within an application are pretty deep. Let's just say it's never been made practical and robust.

[android-developers] Re: Can´t set the emulator´s dns servers on windows
I think that you need to find out what your DNS servers are for your ISP. There are instructions on the internet for Window, Mac and Unix on how to do this. On a windows machine, you run ipconfig /all and look for nameserver or DNS lines and copy those IP addresses. For example, my DNS servers are: 68.87.85.102 and 68.87.69.150 so I set them for the emulator, like this: -dns-server 68.87.85.102,68.87.69.150 On Apr 5, 4:24 pm, Gabriel Simões wrote: > Well, > > Running the emulator manually with parameters -dns-server and - > verbose, I found out that the emulator complains it could not resolve > the DNS server specified (which is an IP for Google DNS, or any other > dns you want). > It says it´s going to use the default DNS but seems not to find any > defaut dns. > When I open the emulators browser, obviously no DNS can be resolved, > but all the websites work if I use their IP. > > isn´t there a way to force the emulator to use an IP address as a dns > server? > Is there anything I can do or will I be forced to develop on linux (so > everytime I go back and forth systems I face problems with accents and > special caracters on my source code). > > Thanks > > On 4 abr, 23:38, Gabriel Simões wrote: > > > > > Actualy 8.8.8.8 is google´s openDNS > > The second should be 8.8.4.4 > > > On 4 abr, 22:54, Brion Emde wrote: > > > > That's a funny lookingDNSthat you're entering.

[android-developers] Re: how to DEBUG build an APK?
You should ALWAYS look outside the IDE for production builds. Any IDE. Builds should always be automateable and as automated as possible. Including managing revision control stategy. IDEs are simply not designed for repeatability. However, the main part of the process is vanilla ant script produced by the 'android' tool. It's just the setup and how it's driven that's separate (and can be shared between projects). Remember, too, that ant scripts can integrate with the Eclipse IDE.

[android-developers] GPX and/or KML Mock Location routes not loading on Android Device (or Emulator) using DDMS
Hi All, I'm having trouble using the DDMS to playback a geo-location route that I recorded using Google's My Tracks application. My Tracks is able to save a route in two formats (GPX and KML) to my SD Card, which I then save onto my development computer, and try to load into my application on my android device (Motorola Droid v2.1). Both of GPX and KML formats are supposedly supported by the DDMS (DDMS > Emulator Control > Location Controls), but I cannot seem to get them to load into the DDMS. I originally tried using the Motorola Droid, but everything in the Emulator Control section in the DDMS is disabled (grayed out). I have enabled "Allow Mock Location" in the Development Settings. Before I go on, I'd just like to mention that getting this to work on the actual device would solve my problem, so if someone knows how to do this, please help me here. Otherwise, read on to the next section about using the Emulator. Moving to an emulator, the Emulator Control section is enabled, but when I try to load either my GPX or KML files, nothing happens (no errors, but location is not updated). What does seem to work is the 'Manual' mode, where a single (Longitude, Latitude) pair is sent to the emulator. But to simulate a route by manually entering (Longitude, Latitude) pairs which are updated about once per second would be very tedious and annoying. Does anyone have any contributions on this subject? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: multiple parameters with rawQuery in sqlite = BUG
Sorry i missed out on your question No, i never did get it to work using multiple "?" placeholders. What i ended up doing is taking the parameters i was trying to use in the "selectionArgs" String array and used string concatenation to create one big query string. Then I passed that new string to rawQuery with null as the selectionArgs. For ex... String sql = "SELECT SUM(MIN(fp - " + firstParameter + ", ap)) FROM."; rawQuery(sql, null); Don't know if this was a good way of doing it but it was the only way i could get it to work and i have experienced no problems with this method.

[android-developers] Re: Can´t set the emulator´s dns servers on windows
Well, Running the emulator manually with parameters -dns-server and - verbose, I found out that the emulator complains it could not resolve the DNS server specified (which is an IP for Google DNS, or any other dns you want). It says it´s going to use the default DNS but seems not to find any defaut dns. When I open the emulators browser, obviously no DNS can be resolved, but all the websites work if I use their IP. isn´t there a way to force the emulator to use an IP address as a dns server? Is there anything I can do or will I be forced to develop on linux (so everytime I go back and forth systems I face problems with accents and special caracters on my source code).

[android-developers] Re: Customizing ExpandableListView
And alas this is not to be. I ended up having to try this and it fails. The ExpandableListView considers a collapsed group to be empty (code indicates for performance). This means the selector will always draw the empty version of the indicator. It may be possible by extending ELV and overriding getIndicator(). Unfortunately that method is marked private so I'll have to replace all the code. Lots of private methods in Android that may be better suited as protected. C'est la vie. I may give it a try.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Service Object Availability between Activities
Thanks for the response. I haven't meant to spam the group, I wasn't sure if
my post were posting.
Problem Activity: LightController
Service: ConnectionService
Object within Service: Connection
Basically all I am attempting to do is start the Service (from a Splash
Screen Activity) which will provide a Connection to a hardware controller. I
hope to use this Connection to send and receive messages with the hardware
controller.
I have been able to bind to the Service and send/receive commands with the
controller in the Activity that loads after the Splash Screen. The problem
arose when I tried to create another Activity (LightController) and connect
to the same Service. Since, I'm just learning I assumed I was doing
something wrong with the Service (e.g. binding, unbinding, object sharing,
etc.)
I finally realized in my LogCat that it was reporting that the Service was
connected after the bit of code I had written to test my connection. I'm
still not sure why this happens. Perhaps something to do with the way these
commands are queued?
_ begin code snippet from onCreate()_
// Bind to the Connection Service
Intent bindIntent = new Intent(LightController.this,
ConnectionService.class);
bindService(bindIntent, mConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
// Request data from the controller
if (unit = serviceBinder.c.connected() ) {
Log.i(Connection Service is connected);
} else {
Log.i(Connection Service is not connected);
}
_ end code snippet from onCreate()_
Anyhow, the above if/then would result in a NullPointerException. I
eventually moved it to a try/catch which resulted in a WARN instead of an
ERROR (see LogCat posted above).
So finally, I have moved the if/then statement to a Thread and all is well.
I sleep for 1000 ms in the Thread prior to attempting to access the
Connection. I am assuming this small time delay is what was needed in order
to establish the binding to the service. Is it that, or are all of the
commands queued until the end of the onCreate() and then executed in some
order determined by Android? (can this be clarified?).
Additionally, I should probably check to see if the binding has been
completed instead of sleeping the thread for an arbitrary time period. Then
if the service is not bound, sleep for shorter time periods, and then check
again. This may improve the responsiveness of the app. I'm assuming a
_while_ or _for_ loop would be a good method to perform this check.
Thanks,
J

[android-developers] Checking for font support at runtime?
Hi, have an application that is going to be shipping on devices with varying font support in several different locales. Some of them will have the standard Android fonts on them (supporting Latin, Cyrillic, Chinese characters, etc.), and others will have extended font support (Thai, Hindi, others). My application displays text in languages that aren't guaranteed to be supported by Android's native fonts on all the devices it will ship on. (This is outside of the normal translated string resources). So I would like to know if it's possible to interrogate font support for a given language at runtime. In other words, given a string of text, can I interrogate something in the Android API that tells me whether there's a font available to display the text? I can get the Unicode block for a given string of characters easily enough. Given that information, I would think I could get a list of fonts in Android, and see if there's support for my Unicode block in the available fonts. Is that possible? Any insights greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kelly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: intensive writing to internal memory
Indeed we are not able to push continuously to a server - both because of network availability and also the power consumption is probably much higher than saving it and sending in bulk. I think we will indeed aim for the 3 level approach and try to put as little as possilbe on the main memory just to be safe.. Thanks to everyone who answered!

[android-developers] Re: Android Navigation Tutorial
First off, consider that Google Navigation Beta comes free on all Android phones inside of the Maps app... And it's an exquisite navigation program and is already integrated with the Car Mode app thingie and all. Do you see yours being that much better that user's will see a reason to switch from the standard, free, kickass Google app to your paid app? Sorry, I don't mean to burst your bubble, just trying to be realistic. Now, if you still wish to continue: OpenStreetMaps and GoogleMaps try their best to know traffic rules--basically they know as many rules as have been programmed into them on their GIS layers thus far. I have certainly had experiences with Google Maps where it has told me to make a left or right onto a one-way street going the opposite direction. Gotta thank my brain for catching those mistakes early enough!! Basically, all these mapping softwares have disclaimers taking away any blame for inaccurate map data. Both street map systems are capable of routing a path only on drivable paths (ie, roads).. If you dig around the Google Maps Android API docs [over at code.google.com], I believe I've seen some methods in there for getting driving routes. I doubt Navigation tutorials exist, but there are loads of Google Maps intro tutorials. Google "android maps api tutorial" or something.

[android-developers] Upgrading of Applications
I'm intending to release my application through the Android Market and I want to make sure I can deploy new releases of the app and the users will be able to be notified of these and upgrade to them as soon as they can. The Android documentation states that, appart from the android:versionCode property, it is entirely up to the application to provide an upgrade routine. What is the best strategy to achieve this? Note: I would also like to support Android 1.5 and onwards, if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance!

[android-developers] Re: call onCreate each time app starts
onCreate will be called whenever your activity is being run and the system has no currently running instance of your app (say they run your app yesterday and between then and now they run Browser, Gmail, and a couple games--chances are the memory allocated to your app has been freed so the games could use it and your running app has now been completely destroyed--requiring the system to restart your app entirely, calling onCreate). If your memory has not been purged since your last run, when your activity starts it will skip onCreate and go straight to onResume. Basically, any code that you need to run every time the user opens your activity should go in onResume, not onCreate. -Nick On Apr 5, 11:04 am, hiwa wrote: > > How to call Activity's onCreate() method each time it starts? > > > Only first time when installed on device it calls onCreate method. > > If I have understood you correctly, then you need to read a bit more > about Activity in general (http://developer.android.com/reference/ > android/app/Activity.html).

[android-developers] Determining the current foreground activity
Is there a way for a background thread to determine if an activity within the same process is the current activity? I have a subscription based application with a trial period that periodically updates information on a background thread. If the background thread detects that the trial period has expired, I want to bring my application to the foreground and notify the user that the trial has ended. I can start the main activity from the background thread using FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK and FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP when the main activity is not in the foreground or if the main acitivity has started a child activity but I run into problems if the main activity is in the foreground. In this case I need to send it a message. Any help would be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Moving a graphic on different screen sizes with the right ratio?
Hello, thanks for your answer. Meanwhile I found a very satisfying solution. In my layout xml I used scaled-independend pixels: http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > So the button bar is always dynamic and the "game panel" static. In this case static means, that it grows or shrinks depending on the density due to the scaled pixel. In the code I just get the density value from DisplayMetrics and use it as multiplier for the motion of the graphic. This works great in every tested screen size. No matter which density or screen size, the game panel and the motion of the graphic is always in the correct ratio.

[android-developers] Re: Selling apps from Canada in the Market?
It's downright crazy. I don't think it's all the Android Market department's fault, as they relay on Google Checkout to handle payment, but the checkout folks will not allow a Canadian address or account information as a seller (I was able to buy my N1 through the market without any problem though). It may be that nobody is driving at Android Market because we *still* can do something as simple as link to an app. Anyway, somebody at Android Market needs to do some Google Checkout ass kicking ASAP. - Brill On Apr 5, 2:14 pm, Kevin Duffey wrote: > You still can't?

[android-developers] Re: Customizing ExpandableListView
I've been fighting with styling on ExpandableListView as well (an area that could use some improvement in a future release). The problem with the current implementation is in the selector element for the group expander. It can be found in expander_group.xml and looks like this: http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";> The problem is that it lacks a state for empty. The code and attributes support it (state_empty) but it isn't defined in here. Here are the hypothetical (completely untested) steps you could use to achieve this: - Grab the existing expander_group.xml and put it into your drawable directory. - Modify it to include a section for the empty state with no image. Something like this: - Modify your ExpandableListView element and set the group indicator to be your private expander_group.xml Let us know how it works out. For myself, I need even more control so I'm about to move to the "roll my own" stage. On Feb 22, 8:35 pm, ls02 wrote: > setGroupIndicator will set ALL groups indicator.

Try again. Simple.
If it happens everytime, try shutting resetting your emulator and
eclipse.
