I'm confused. Do these lines of code ever work under any
circumstances? Raw resources are usually meant to be read as input
streams and not dealt with using file paths.
You might want to take a moment to google about playing videos from
resources or assets.

Hi,
I am getting a hang in a MediaPlayer when there is an error.
I have a separate Activity that I launch to play the MediaPlayer in
full screen mode. The relevant code from onCreate is posted above.
I have set a Timer to time out in 15 seconds, so that if the video
fails to play the activity will exit. However, an error happens, so
onError is called, and the debugger shows me that I am hung in the
MediaPlayer.release() / MediaPlayer.reset() call.
I'm not so interested in discovering why the error happens, as the
phone I am testing on seems to have issues with running videos. But I
do want to figure out why the MediaPlayer is hanging.
Any help?
Thanks,
John

Re: [android-developers] dex in ant with external libs in SDK tools R8

I have an external lib sitting in the libs folder which is not included into the .dex file by the dex-helper macro. If I look at the main_rules.xml I see that it looks like it was just forgotten? The reference to the path of the external libs just vanished between r7 and r8 of the SDK. The app will build but then crash during runtime because of the missing libs. Looks like a (at least for me) serious bug in the SDK.

Re: [android-developers] Poor SQLite implementation? first time data access way to slow
On Thu, Dec 9, 2010 at 2:19 AM, carbi84 leistner.d...@googlemail.comwrote:
Hi there,
i am new to android programming, however i am quite used working with
sqlite databases.
- my application opens a sqlite3 database on the sd card and runs a
kinda complex query (5 joins, 1 subquery, 2 where clauses) using
SQLiteDatabase.rawQuery
public Cursor queryDataBase(String sql, String[] selectionArgs){
Cursor c = myDB.rawQuery(sql, selectionArgs);
return c;
}
- the sql statement is given by a hardcoded String
- the query returns 585 rows with 24 columns
- i had to do a trade-off between storage space and indexing, but on
all bigger tables (about ~ 40 000 entries, for now) indexes are used,
SQLite shows for the query: Steps: 155 , Sorts: 0, AutoIdx: 1077
- i am not using primary keys, thus i also didn't rename anything to
_id
- the execution of rawQuery is kinda fast, execution time is about 2
ms
- however accessing this data takes way too much time, e.g. by
c.moveToFirst(), execution time about 1700 ms ! (same for
Cursor.getRowCount(), or apparently all first time access to the
actual result set)
- doing the same on a PC ( 2 Ghz, 1 GB RAM) with e.g. SQLiteSpy it
takes 15 ms to display the result set
- doing it on the PC with a C++ Implementation it's also 15 ms up to
30 ms
So what am i missing here? Is it actually possible that my Handset
with 800 MHz and 2 GB RAM is about 120 times slower??
( of course i am also aware of the speed difference between a microSD
card and a sata2 hdd, but that shouldn't explain this huge difference,
right? )

[android-developers] Re: How to make a trial version which starts a limited amount of times?
I got a mail from Android market, where they wrote: We will be reducing the purchase refund window to 15 minutes. So I assume that 24 hour refund is no longer available? That makes it more important to have a trial version. On 23 Nov, 09:44, Eyvind Almqvist eyv...@mobile-visuals.com wrote: Yes, I see now that they write Products that cannot be previewed by the buyer (such as applications): You authorize Google to give the buyer a full refund of the Product price if the buyer requests the refund within 48 hours after purchase. I have released a trial like I described on OVI and I haven't got much angry reviews. I could also make a trial with limited functionality. You could for instance only watch 4 of the 10 visual effects. But wouldn't that risk getting angry reviews as well?' Or do you think this alternative would work better on AM? It is difficult and time consuming to buy anything from AM in Sweden. You have to buy with credit cards and you have to write all the information about your credit card in the mobile. Is it the same for USA? If so, I think it makes people less willing to buy anything. I think a trial version is needed because the buying process is so complicated, even if a 24 hour trial is possible when they buy apps.

What do you mean with Android Market already implements a default time limited trial version of your app? Do you mean that everytime someone buys an app they can return it within 24-48 hours for free? That must be a special rule that Google has, I've never seen that in other appstores. You should probably read this:http://www.android.com/us/developer-distribution-agreement.html I was planning to release a trial version which starts 3 times. The first time, you can view all of the visual effects. The second time, you can view just 3 of the visual effects. The third time, you can view just 1 of the visual effects. But maybe it is no use to release a trial version like that either? My apps display visual effects that you can use for meditation or relaxation, so you can't use them as a wallpaper. I think that you would be likely to get a lot of disgruntled customers by releasing an app like that, but do keep in mind that this is just an opinion based on my own experiences and observations. Others may have differing experiences/opinions, and even if all of us agree (not likely), it is still just an opinion. None of us can predict the future. My company got good distribution to operators, currently about 40 operators are selling our apps. Maybe it is easier to get sales for Android apps on the operators appstores and portals than on Android market? I have seen that big US operators like T-mobile and Verizon are looking for Android apps. It is certainly possible, but none of the alternate markets have - as yet - a market penetration to compete with the Android market. You are likely to make at least an order of magnitude (10x) more sales through the Android market than any other portal as things stand today. That situation may change in future, perhaps even the near future, but for now this is the reality we deal with. Regards, Michael A.

[android-developers] Re: New Android Market Client Update
Since most users who request a refund do so within minutes of purchase, we will reduce the refund window on Market to 15 minutes. This is really bad news for me. I don't have a trial version for my (relatively) expensive app because I was relying on the 24 hour refund period so I'm going to drop wy down the ranks. Clearly, the thing to do is make my app free and sell an unlock app. Of course, with that fantastically long notice period of 'over the next several days', implementing that will be no problem at all --- sarcasm. They're really piling it on lately, I was even tempted to use caps. For all clarity, it's not the change I object to but the vague, short notice period.

[android-developers] Re: Beginner questions
Eclipse is not absolutely essential, but it is such a great convenience, you should take advantage of it unless you absolutely have to use another environment. Also, most Android development is taking place in the Eclipse environment, so you have lots of resources you can take advantage of if you stick with this majority solution. As for 64bit, there is a rumor running about that 64bit programs tend to be somewhat less reliable than 32bit. But I haven't noticed any problems with 64bit Linux versions (which is what I use).

Should I use JDK 64bit? I saw some program for 32 bit does not run on 64bit Windows. If I should use 64bit JDK, I just need to reinstall JDK only? I saw SDK is installed only after JDK is installed.

[android-developers] Re: New Android Market Client Update
No offense, but the fact that you don't have a trial app is a really a bit tricking people into buying the app. A large percentage of people are too timid, don't know, procrastinate, etc, to get a refund. I think if you have an expensive app, it's almost mandatory to have some sort of free version. Just my two cents.

This is really bad news for me. I don't have a trial version for my (relatively) expensive app because I was relying on the 24 hour refund period so I'm going to drop wy down the ranks. Clearly, the thing to do is make my app free and sell an unlock app. Of course, with that fantastically long notice period of 'over the next several days', implementing that will be no problem at all --- sarcasm.

If we are talking about a Bitmap, you can call recycle() yourself.

[android-developers] Re: New Android Market Client Update
If it's anything like buying anything else using Google Checkout, the user will get their e-mail and at that moment the 15 mins starts. I don't think it will have anything to do with the actual download success. I think Google would have done away with refiunds completely, had the 15 min grace period not been such a core feature of the Google Checkout product. After all, the 15 mins is a ridicolous time for an app purchase as a large number of apps (like mine) cannot be evaluated in 15 mins. The 15 min rule is good differentiator from PayPal and worked well for regular merchandise in case you clicked purchase by error or you found the same item being sold by another merchant for less. It doesn't work well for apps, in my very insignificant opinion. On Dec 11, 8:40 pm, H m...@howardb.com wrote: Yeah, I agree.

[android-developers] Problem with service unbind
Hello there, I am working on an activity, that is connected to a local service. The service gets started fine in the activites onResume and can be accessed. What I want to do is to unbind the service in the activity's onPause method. If I do that, I get an Service not Registered exception. And if I don't do the unbind, I get a Leaked Service connection exception. I believe there is only one call to unbind the service. So, how can I fix that? Or how can I debug that? I tried to start the service with Context.BIND_DEBUG_UNBIND, but I don't really know, how this should provide debugging information?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Problem with service unbind
Then you have already unbound it.
Try putting a breakpoint in each of the places you bindService() and
unbindService(), and see what is going on as you run your app.
You can look at the LocalServiceBinding API demo for an example of using
bindService()/unbindService(); though this doesn't do it as part of the
lifecycle callbacks, it does allow you to control in the UI binding and
unbinding to see the result (and verify the basic mechanism is indeed
working).

[android-developers] Anti-aliasing filter on AudioRecord?

[android-developers] Re: Combining an image
Thanks for the suggestion Doug. I am using small PNG files that easily fit within the screen. That said, I'm cutting my losses on this (10 hours or so) and just going to go without it. If I ever get back to it I'll maybe do as you suggest and try it without table layout.

In your RelativeLayouts, you don't seem to be using any of they layout parameters that make RelativeLayout special (like layout_toLeftOf, layout_alignTop, etc). Have you considered ditching tables and relatives and just using LinearLayouts instead? Are your ImageViews perhaps stretching/shrinking the drawables because they're not quite the right size? And what exactly are your drawables, anyway? Bitmaps? What's your overall geometry? For all we know, your drawables may not even fit on screen without shrinking or cropping.

[android-developers] Automatic debuggable in the manifest
This feature, where ADT 8.x is supposed to automatically set debuggable=true: http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html has not been working for me. Then I accidentally broke my build while editing strings.xml, to the point of Android build tools not being able to parse the file. Curisously enough, I got this in the Eclipse's console window, alongside strings.xml parse errors: [2010-12-11 23:20:54 - AndroMail] Warning: AndroidManifest.xml already defines debuggable (in http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android); using existing value in manifest. After fixing the strings and cleaning the project, this warning went away too, and automatic debuggable is still not working. So the code to set debuggable is there, but for some reason only gets triggered when XML parsing fails. Hope this can provide a clue for making automatic debuggable work (Xavier?) -- Kostya Vasilyev -- WiFi Manager + pretty widget -- http://kmansoft.wordpress.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
