[android-developers] Re: Please help how can use WiFi hotspot feature in application

[peter]

If you have root access to the device I believe you can use iwconfig
through adb to create a wifi hotspot.  You will need to know a bit of
linux and how iwconfig works.  See information here or on iwconfig man
page:
http://linux.hostweb.com/TopicMessages/comp.os.linux.networking/2141233/1/Default.aspx

Now a possible workaround to configuring the wifi hotspot
programatically within an apk can be seen here:
http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/wiki/ShellCommands

Instead of doing a simple 'ls' command, you would build the iwconfig
string you type in the adb, and that would enable the hotspot.

Now I have never done this, but look at the source code of this
application and see how they do it:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

Line 58 of tether_edify is executing the iwconfig commands described
in the iwconfig post above.  The app author decided to go with native
code, but it's essentially the same concept of getting root access and
sending some iwconfig commands to a shell to turn on wifi tethering.

[android-developers] Re: Small game develop

[Robert Green]

Have one big custom surface view for your game.  Use canvas to draw
stuff to it.  Keep fields that are the position.  Process input to
change the position.  Draw the ball where the position is on your
surface (using canvas).  See the examples that come with Android SDK
for more info on using surfaceview.

There's no standarized way as wifi hotspot is not a part of SDK and
there's bunch of apps that offer that feature. If your device is
rooted you can have any wifi tether app from market. If you got this
app bundled it can be anything manufacturer provided, so you may be
out of luck with general approach

Re: [android-developers] How to navigate to nested PreferencesScreen

 Probably I was misunderstooded. My problem is not how to navigate from

preference screen to child preference screen (this is done by

activity in my application to child preference screen. How can 
Preference.setOnPreferenceClickListener()

[android-developers] invisible part of layout

[Richard Sámela]

hallo,
my issue is that I have a layout and at the bottom of layout I have a
EditText like this:



And it should be like TextArea or some edittext where I can write more
than one line and if text is in the end so it shoud get to the new
line. But no scroll to the right. And problem this sdittext is at the
bottom and if I click on it so virtual keyboard cover it. And I cant
see what I'm writting. if I maybe made a mistake I can't see it and
edit the writen text is very difficult. so I think that the right way
is when keyboard discovered, so little eidittext will be above at the
top of keyboard. or something else but I should see what I put to the
edittext.
thanks a lot

R.

[android-developers] Action bar: attribute for changing background color when clicking an action button?

[Clément Plantier]

Hi all,

Using the Honeycomb action bar, when touching an action button, its
background become orange-colored (I'm using the Holo.Light theme). I
would like to override the theme to change the color of this
background, but I can't find the attribute that defines this color.

Does someone knows the attribute that define the background color that
appears when pressing an Action Button?

Re: [android-developers] Fragment.onActivityResult is not called

[Pete Doyle]

Ran into this issue tonight on my Droid (2.2).  I think there's an issue in
FragmentActivity.startActivityFromFragment(...).

YMMV, but this seems to fix it for me:
https://github.com/petedoyle/android-support-v4-googlemaps/commit/06307de35a9de0a89ff52bb42a358ba6740e542c

Basically there are two issues:
  1) "(fragment.mIndex+1)<<16" should be in parentheses since + has
precedence over << in Java
  2) requestCode*0x should be requestCode&0x.  (I think the goal is
to strip all but the first 16 bits of the request code).

To understand the fix, assume you have a fragment index of 0 and a
requestCode of 1.

With the current code:
(fragment.mIndex+1)<<16 + (requestCode*0x)
= (0+1)<<16 + (1*0x)
= (1)<< (16 + 0x) // since + has precedence over <<
= 1<<65551
= 32768 // according to my debugger
= 1000    // fragment index is lost, request code changes from 1
to 32768

With this change:
((fragment.mIndex+1)<<16) + (requestCode&0x)
 = ((0+1)<<16) + (1&0x)
 = (1<<16) + 1
 = 65536 + 1
 = 65537
 = 1    0001

Thanks,
Pete

[android-developers] Re: Gettting data from web page

[Sravan]

Hi Kunju,

First you should know about what data/request info do those 20 sites
need, to send back the flight rate for your request in some format
(JSON, XML etc.,).
That means, you first need to identify the below 2 points,
1. Individual 20 request URLs for each of your 20 sites.
2. The response format they send you (Mostly will be in XML or JSON).

Once you receive these 20 responses separately, it is up to you to
consolidate those 20 responses and show your response to your user.
i.e., Your code will do 20 different requests and will take those 20
responses into consideration for creating the display for your user.
However, you should take note of the time that will be taken for these
20 requests and processing those responses. Instead, you can try
researching for a single website/application that does all these
requests and consolidation and send you the consolidated response in
XML or JSON format which you can directly show to your user. You may
need to pay for this though, and the response consolidation cannot be
customized, obviously.

Regards,
Sravan

[android-developers] Re: Gyroscope affecting other sensor event types?

[nadam]

Just got an email from Google that Nexus S and Xoom currently do not
use the gyroscope for TYPE_GRAVITY, TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION and
TYPE_ROTATION_VECTOR but it will be improved sometime in the future.
Currently the only way to us the gyroscope in Java is to use
TYPE_GYROSCOPE where you get rotational velocity.

[android-developers] Re: Action bar: attribute for changing background color when clicking an action button?

[Clément Plantier]

Well the answer was simple: the attribute is "background". I use the
following drawable to specify a red background color when clicking the
button:

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:exitFadeDuration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime">

How can I fix it?

Youtube won't work.

Then suddenly they work.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Eclipse wont regenerate files since downloading the 2.3 SDK

[Kostya Vasilyev]

Are you also seeing "Project cannot be built until path dependencies are 
fixed" (or something like that) in the Problems view? Is the "gen" 
folder missing entirely?


When this happened to me, I was able to fix it by repeatedly doing 
Refresh in the Package Explorer view (Right mouse - Refresh, or F5) and 
Project - Clean. After two or three cycles it finally worked.


I'm using SDK 2.2, though - still with Tools 10, and Eclipse 3.6.2

Have you tried using the 'android' --> Fix this application
from the
eclipse project manager view?

Also, I had R.Id.buttonX returning a TextEdit for awhile... I
solved
that by deleting the elements from the UI file and then saving
and re-
adding...

I'm assuming you've cleaned, closed and reopened eclipse and
all the
usual suspects.

[android-developers] Problem about using resource in jar file

[Siu Man Yu]

I have use an external jar in my application.
I add the jar by adding "LOCAL_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES := my-jar" in
Android.mk.
However, I found that the resource files of the jar are not included
into my apk.
I have compile the problem in eclipse but the resource can be included
in the apk build by eclipse.

I used aapt list my-prj.apk to list out the resources in the apks.
Do anyone know how can I add the resource into the apk if I compile
with Android.mk?

Thank you very much.

[android-developers] Re: Managing Out of memory

[DanH]

Of course, the Runtime values are reporting on the garbage-collected
heap, and are only really valid immediately after a GC has been
performed.

Plus, images are stored in a DIFFERENT heap that is harder (if even
possible) to query.

It certainly seems to be a closer match to WebOS development than is
standard Android SDK stuff. Both PhoneGap and WebOS:

-- have all your application logic in HTML, CSS, and JS
-- expose platform capabilities via objects injected into the JS namespace

Now, I haven't looked at Mojo in a while, so it may be my recollection
of the skill sets it uses is fuzzy. In that case, I apologize.

Once you have the time value, use AlarmManager and NotificationManager

[android-developers] achartengine size problem.

[vnv]

Hi,

first I know that there is a group for achartengine but it's rather
slowly one so sorry for trying to solve it here.

I am trying to display BarChart with ChartFactory.getBarChartView.

I have created xml file that's like this:


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

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_weight="1"
>









http://schemas.android.com/apk/
res/
android"
android:id="@+id/chart"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>



and I am adding chart like this:

layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.chart);

mChartView = ChartFactory.getBarChartView(this,
buildBarDataset(titles, values), renderer, Type.DEFAULT);
layout.addView(mChartView, new LayoutParams
(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

Why does chart expands and doesn't leave any room for first linear
layout? is this bug or what.

How can you make it wrap or get smaller in proportion to other stuff
in xml layout file.

Tnx in advance.

Use a WebView. Here is a sample application:

You may also wish to read the Basic Usage section of the WebView documentation:

[android-developers] Geocoder IOException

[Jake Colman]

At random times my production app will get 

GeoCoder error: java.io.IOException: Unable to parse response from
server

When I try to get the location name corresponding to a given
latitude/longitude taken from a Location object.

Is there anything I should be doing differently so that this doesn't
happen?  It's random and usually clears itself up next time I try to
update the information.  But it's annoying.

Is it just that Google's sever may have been unavailable at the time of
the request or that my phone's internet connection was temporarily
flaky?

Thanks.

...Jake

[android-developers] Assets in the assets folder

[Justin]

Some of my users are running across a very peculiar bug in the most
recent update to one of my apps.  I released an update to my app a few
days ago.  In this update, I placed some files in the apps assets
folder.  One of the activities needs to read a couple of these files
when it starts.  Through all my testing, everything worked fine.
However, now that it is out in the wild, for some users who updated,
the app is seemingly not reading these files correctly...almost as if
they don't exist.  So, my question is: Is there ever an instance where
an update to an app that adds some files to the assets folder will not
actually update the app with those files in place?  Are there
potentially device specific issues at hand here?

No there are no guidelines or moderation. All manners of crap is allowed.

Use a WebViewClient and shouldOverrideUrlLoading().

That would be because that code was written in 2009.

Again, no.

Singleton is a design pattern whose purpose is to simplify and control
access to a an object for which there is and will only be one instance
of. This instance is set once and used throughout. It does not vary or
change. It is not variable.

Of course you can change the *state* of the singleton object, if that's
what you mean by "modifiable", but if you change the *value* of the
object itself, as one would do with global *variables*, it is no longer
a singleton.

Even in the sense that the singleton state is modifiable, the whole
point of the singleton is to provide an interface through which this
globally accessible object, and its state, is manipulated. There is
controlled access. This is not the case with your run-of-mill, freely
accessible global variable.

Then do Constants.Key where you need it. Done.

Perhaps my blanket statement was to simplistic.  Not ALL singletons 
"are" global variables.  Also, not all globals are variables (globally 
accessible static constants for example).  However, all STATEFUL 
singletons are globals, and all stateful singletons with mutable state 
(via methods or whatever) are essentially global variables as they 
create the same architectural issues.  Limiting my statement to stateful 
singletons is kind of irrelevant though, since there's no point in 
limiting a stateless type to one instantiation.  Just because a 
singleton's state is only mutable by using its interface doesn't change 
the fact that you are varying globally accessible state.  When I was 
first starting my career, I thought singletons were great (after all, I 
read about them in a book!), but experience has taught me that there is 
almost always a better way than using mutable global state.  Singletons 
essentially get you two things:


 - the guarantee that only one instance can exist
 - global access to that single instance

The second is bad for all the reasons that global variables are 
considered bad, and the first is unnecessary.  If you only need one 
instance of a class, then just make one.  It really is that simple. 
Then give that instance to whomever needs it, instead of letting them 
magically pull it from the ether.

I went back and looked at the ApiDemos code and it does work as long
as requestCode = 0. However, if you change the request code to
anything other than zero, the ApiDemos will fail.

What I did to be able to handle this (it may have been overkill, but it
works) is to have each child screen defined in a separate xml file and
PreferenceActivity subclass...  So the steps I take are as follows:

   - Create a main preference xml file that contains declarations for
   preference screens (but no contents)
   - Create a separate xml file for the contents of each preference screen
   - Create a Preference subclass for each preference xml file and inflate
   the appropriate layout
   - Set click listeners on all of the preference screens to launch the
   given preference when clicked (this won't happen automatically when doing it
   this way)
   - Then, anywhere in my code I can launch the child preference screen just
   like I would any other activity in my app

*> So the donate key app doesn't actually implement any logic?  *
I actually have mine set up so that if they try to launch the donate key it
will just launch the full version of the app.  If the full version of the
app doesn't exist then I display a dialog giving them the option to go the
market and download it...  That way users don't get confused if they just
purchase the key.

That is the beauty of the solution.  My motto is "Do the simplest thing that
could possibly work..."

Now, I should point out that AppSwipe! has not yet been updated to use the
LVL... The donate key is still using the old copyright protection that has
been deprecated.

I'm working on a major upgrade of AppSwipe! and after that I'm going to
update it to use the LVL.  I haven't tested it yet but what I plan on doing
is having AppSwipe! implement the LVL but do the license check on my donate
key app.  When I do this the user won't even need to have the donate key
installed on the phone... it will just need to be recorded that they
purchased it.

Hmm, perhaps this is semantics at this point. I don't think a singleton is
"a global", as it's usually a private member that is statically accessible.
However, there is "global access", of course.

No, but in terms of clarity, readability, and ease of debugging, there is a

object versus a "classic global".

Normally, I wholeheartedly agree. However, the Android model and intricacies
of the lifecycle of an Android app present some unique challenges with
regard to managing and passing around objects that are needed across
multiple Activities. So it's not always that simple. Sometimes, when
considering ease and speed of implementation, readability,
and maintainability, a Singleton really is the best option.

If it's a single piece of state that's accessible globally, then to me, 
it's a global, regardless of the particular syntax or representation.

To me, the third option of "don't use either one" is almost always

I admit, I've only released one Android app of intermediate complexity. 
 It's been my experience on other platforms and languages, that any 
framework that encourages sections of your code to communicate via 
mutable global state is fundamentally flawed.  I haven't felt encouraged 
in that manner by Android thus far.


Anyways, this has gotten a bit off-topic from the OP's original

[android-developers] ActionBarSherlock: Action Bar Helper for All Android Versions.

[Jake Wharton]

Good morning developers,

I wanted to let everyone know that I have released version 2.0 of my 
library, ActionBarSherlock, 
which facilitates the use of the action bar design pattern on all version of 
Android.

The library will automatically use the native ActionBar if it is available 
(currently only Android 3.0) or fall back to a custom third-party 
implementation of your choice (e.g., 
GreenDroid, 
Android-ActionBar , 
etc.). This should allow you to only have to maintain a single set of 
activities and layouts in most cases.

There are sample implementations, example APKs, and of course the library 
source code available on its GitHub project 
page
.

I welcome all comments, suggestions, and criticism via reply to this thread, 
directly via email , using GitHub messages, 
issues, 
or pull requests, or on Twitter . Large lump 
sums of money are also accepted.

Re: [android-developers] Notification bar size

[Kostya Vasilyev]

It's just the right size to accommodate status icons that follow the 
official status icon guidelines:


http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_status_bar.html

And that's 38px for HDPI devices, 25px for MDPI and so on (following 
standard DPI scaling).

Just one question : what's the height of the notification bar under

* Galaxy tab : 38px
* Xperia X10 : 38px

Couldn't you have done just one Preference subclass, with the child
XML file as a custom attribute?

I ask in part because I think your approach may become more necessary.
Right now, a "legacy" PreferenceActivity with nested PreferenceScreen
elements looks bad on Android 3.0:

http://commonsware.com/blog/2011/02/25/nested-preferencescreens-honeycomb-ugly.html

And PreferenceFragment is not in the Android compatibility library.

Off the cuff, that means the way to get single-source cross-version
decent-looking nested preference screens may be via your approach.

[android-developers] Change the text style according to state, in XML

Does someone know if it's possible to change a text view style (bold,

a drawable can depend on the state using a ?
I don't want to do that in Java, only with XML styles, but it seems

[android-developers] Dynamically including a custom view defined in another app

[Mark Carter]

Suppose I have one app who's functionality can be accessed entirely through 
a single custom view (which does not take up the whole screen, because it 
needs to be displayed with something else).

Now suppose I have another app which wants to be able to show that custom 
view within one of its own activities.  Both apps are mine.

What is the best way to do this?

Would Fragments be a possibility for this?

Note - I don't want to statically include all the code/resources from the 
other app.

Hi Mark,

Now that you mention it I probably could have for some of the more generic
screens.  However I do have some child screens that are a bit more complex
and would need its own subclass.

Yes, it is possible.  Set the textColor attribute to something like this:

I have done this on several occasions.

So if I have states 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and off to be able to change between

Re: [android-developers] Toggle button with more states that two

[Justin Anderson]

I don't think so, but it shouldn't be too hard to just subclass the Button
class and implement this behavior yourself.

[android-developers] Re: Which Mobile Advertising Site?

[LAM_Creations]

It is a little more than just clicking but to simply answer your question is 
it is pay per click. In keeping it simple, each click is valued at $0.20 - 
$1 in my experience and you can give higher valued ads more priority.

Thank you; appreciate the input. I will try to use Java reflection.

Re: [android-developers] Dynamically including a custom view defined in another app

[Justin Anderson]

And TabActivity doesn't fully support displaying activities... That
functionality is left over from very early Android development days and
there are all sorts of little gotchas and subtleties when using them to
display activities.

Really, each tab in a TabActivity should be a View and then it works much
more nicely.

[Brad Stintson]

Hii,

I am using following code for setting alarm at specified time but I'm not
able to receive alarm at specified time. Please tell me where is the problem




Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

  cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
  cal.clear();
  cal.set(Calendar.YEAR, mYear);
  cal.set(Calendar.MONTH, mMonth);
  cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, mDay);
  cal.set(Calendar.HOUR, mHour);
  cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE,mMinutes);

  Intent activate = new Intent(this, TimeAlarm.class);
  PendingIntent alarmIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0,
activate, 0);
   alarms = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
  alarms.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(),
alarmIntent);

[android-developers] DTD Handlers aren't supported.

[Adam]

Requirement: I'm trying to parse an XML doc from a url (Rest API) using 
org.jdom.Document Document = new SAXBuilder().parse(url.OpenStream());
such that I can perform some xpath queries and processing later on.

I'm getting the error: DTD Handlers aren't supported when I try to parse the 
file.
I can't use the in-built java API as I am trying to develop my app on Andoid 
on 1.5 so I'm using JDOM.

Anyone know how I can parse the XML for m android app?

These two does not make much sense in that order.
