[android-developers] Re: How do I know what encoding the string when I decoded from the media store?
Java strings are *always* Unicode strings. If you have mojibake, then the
problem occurred before you got a Java string, and you have to fix it there.
You cannot in general fix the problem, once the string has been
misinterpreted. Although sometimes you can get away with your getBytes/new
String approach, it is not semantically correct, and may possibly fail in
some circumstances.
What you need to do is to get your hands on the raw bytes as a byte[] array.
AlbumCursor.getBlob(1) would be the way to do that -- but if it's not a
blob, it's implementation-defined what happens. Likewise, if it's not a
string, it's implementation-defined what happens. It's documented as being
TEXT.
It seems to me that your data is what's at fault here. What you really need
is some tool to repair it -- actually make new copies of your data, getting
rid of the Shift-JIS or EUC-J or whatever it's encoded in. SJIS -- and all
national encodings -- are long obsolete, and you'll find increasing
difficulty in handling them. Even the number of variations in SJIS is enough
to give me nightmares. SJIS should not appear in MP3 files -- it violates
the ID3v2 standard. ISO-8859-1 (ASCII), UTF-8, UCS-2, and UTF-16 (all
Unicode) are the only options.
I don't know if there's any trick you can use to auto-detect the encoding,
based on other information in the file. Certainly, there is no general
solution.
I'd suggest writing a little tool that reads the MP3 file's ID3v2 data (not
via MediaStore -- as raw data), shows you the textual data with various
fixes (and lets you choose which one is actually readable), and then writes
out the data to a new MP3 file. Run this on all your bad files that have
been corrupted by whatever Japanese MP3 editing tool you've used in the
past.
Before I went to that effort, though, I'd google for a tool that does this.
Surely someone has already done this.
You'd think that, after decades of dealing with JIS, SJIS variants, and
EUC-J, and all the confusion and incompatibility that results, that people
would not be stuffing SJIS into audio files. But alas

[android-developers] Re: My first android program
Thanks so much for your input! I've just had my final exam today, so I'm back into it. It's my final year in medicine actually, the only programming experience I have is in VB6 from a few years back (I loved it!). I'm familiar with the concept of OOP but haven't used it much. I think I'll take your advise and look for some online tutorials on java first, then look at android. To answer your questions, I was thinking of having an sqlite table (FTS) with the URL, title, and body of the html files (on sd card) (made on the device using Jericho HTML parser). I took the Searchabledictionary example app (in android SDK) for the top level part, and intend to change it so that when you search it shows the title in the listview and you click and it opens a web browser in the corresponding URL. It's pretty simple in theory, harder to actually start! Thanks again for all your help. It looks like there's a lot to learn.

If your objective is to make apps for Android learning things like thread locks, blocking queues, etc while it's ok will be superseded when you learn that Android has a bunch of nice helper classes (handler, looper, etc) to integrate better with its lifecycle methodology. Obviously the best would be to learn the spec AS you work on a project. Time spent learning or memorizing some silly spec is better spent making an app that follows to Android standards and practices. Sounds good to me. But note, I never said spec anywhere, (really, you can check), I simply said to *learn* Java.

Re: [android-developers] Android renders RGB values wrong.
On Mon, Apr 18, 2011 at 5:48 PM, Andrew Huang proelited...@gmail.comwrote: Specify a RGB, i.e, color name=test_color#ff292728/color. Use the a Color Meter tool on Windows or Mac to sample the color in the Layout Preview screen. You'll see that it renders the correct value of 292728. Sampling the same color in the emulator would return a different value, #282329. The emulator emulates a 16-bit framebuffer, so this is not really unexpected. Note that the system does implement dithering though, but there will still be issues like that due to the reduced color resolution. Generally speaking, many devices out there don't have a screen that don't have the color resolution and gammut of a high-end desktop screen. So don't expect real 24-bit support on real hardware. This is causing us some serious problems with our graphics (i.e. images are not correctly blending with the background), I would recommend trying to achieve what you're aiming at differently. E.g. using transparent images and alpha-blending. so we would like to understand what's going on. My searches have turned up nothing so far.

[android-developers] Recommendations for 'specialization'.
Hi All, First of all, I'm very new to Android, installed my first SDK just 3 months ago. But given the nature of Java programming in general, it provides one with very flexible environment for familiarizing yourself with with it relatively quickly. And this holds for Android too (thanks guys, Dianne etc, you've done a great job). But since I have somewhat limited time for doing this, I'm learning Android on my spare time while someone else pays my bills, it soonish became quite obvious for me Android is huge. And I can't get into level on every area of Android programming I wanted to very easily. Now this leaves me with two options; 1. Start programming an application and force myself to go through services and what ever comes on the way. - This is what I started with at first. Went on with a Facebook Client, which I thought would provide me good overall experience on Android development (UI basics, network usage/optimization etc etc). But once I found myself reading XMPP documentation and writing my own Facebook chat client (I just didn't feel comfortable with adding a 500kB readymade jar to my smallish project), I had to start thinking is this a good way after all. 2. Find a 'special' domain to concentrate on and do it REALLY WELL. - This would provide smaller applications, maybe libraries, but gave me good insight on how to do certain things and I could concentrate on making them flexible/usable for other developers too. Meaning interfaces they can use to access my code. Or code itself should be flexible at least. Problem is, if I'm about to try finding an Android related job one day, should I go with the application approach instead? Or could you provide me with some examples of general interests, hot topics, I could spend my time on? -- H -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

By the way, you have it backwards, I think.

That is, get the bytes of the string as they are internally, as UTF-8, and
then re-interpret them as SJIS.

But can you give me a hint how to control the 'progress' in the java code? So that I can i.e. increase it fluently in a timer or indicate a progress in downloading a file. On 13 Maj, 23:19, Romain Guy romain...@android.com wrote: You don't need to do all this. All you need is a drawable that supports levels. Android even provides a circle drawable that gets filled when you change the progress.

You can capture the height and width of your custom view by capturing those values in the onSizeChanged method. By drawing your circle programatically you can easily make a progress circle that looks good at all resolutions. Also, you don't have to worry about different device resolutions, since you just need to control the size of the view in the layout. Or, you could extend the ProgressBar class and do the same thing.

Re: [android-developers] Recommendations for 'specialization'.
Perhaps there are diffrent type of jobs requiring different skills/depth. if you are looking for an IT job writing business applications for the mobile, perhaps I could say a few words. Good hiring managers know that a good programmer is a good java programmer. And a good java programmer is a good android programmer. However some managers prefer that you have a explicit Android programming experience. The way some of these managers are workign this out is to see if you have any published apps on the android market. Don't have to be an extensive app. If you were to follow this logic it may better to write a few simple apps and publish them on the market. If your goals is to write a killer personal app that you can make money out off, that is a serious task, only toil and frustration can accrue. 2011/5/14 Harri Smått har...@gmail.com: Hi All, First of all, I'm very new to Android, installed my first SDK just 3 months ago. But given the nature of Java programming in general, it provides one with very flexible environment for familiarizing yourself with with it relatively quickly. And this holds for Android too (thanks guys, Dianne etc, you've done a great job). But since I have somewhat limited time for doing this, I'm learning Android on my spare time while someone else pays my bills, it soonish became quite obvious for me Android is huge. And I can't get into level on every area of Android programming I wanted to very easily. Now this leaves me with two options; 1. Start programming an application and force myself to go through services and what ever comes on the way. - This is what I started with at first. Went on with a Facebook Client, which I thought would provide me good overall experience on Android development (UI basics, network usage/optimization etc etc). But once I found myself reading XMPP documentation and writing my own Facebook chat client (I just didn't feel comfortable with adding a 500kB readymade jar to my smallish project), I had to start thinking is this a good way after all. 2. Find a 'special' domain to concentrate on and do it REALLY WELL. - This would provide smaller applications, maybe libraries, but gave me good insight on how to do certain things and I could concentrate on making them flexible/usable for other developers too. Meaning interfaces they can use to access my code. Or code itself should be flexible at least. Problem is, if I'm about to try finding an Android related job one day, should I go with the application approach instead? Or could you provide me with some examples of general interests, hot topics, I could spend my time on? -- H -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

It's not only Android I'm rather new to, but having such an active developer community is something I've never experienced before. Anyway, your response was very interesting reading. From now on I'll try to focus on more specific questions but wanted to ask first if more experienced Android developers were able to provide me with some basic 'reality check' on what's really happening. -- H -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Is it in 2.3, ice cream sandwich, or nowhere in the pipe at the moment. I really want access to the camera. I have an offline mobile app that stores expenses (among other things).

[android-developers] Re: Develop apps on-the-fly?
Another approach without using Eclipse, the Android SDK or learning Java is MobiForms. MobiForms was the world's first rapid application development tool designed for creating Android apps. Most programming is done with drag and drop or using the simplified MobiScript built-in language for app logic and navigation. MobiForms is particularly good for creating business database orientated apps as it supports connection to a range of industry standard databases including SQL Server, Access, Oracle and MySQL. Additionally, the MobiForms Sync Server supports offline database buffering and online bi-directional synchronisation for partially connected apps. Many MobiForms customers have created apps to run against SAP, Oracle Apps, Navision or Dynamics. MobiForms also supports Android camera and GPS data integration. For more information have a look at our web site at: http://www.mobiforms.com.

Can't be done. (Well, could be done, but would require some file calisthenics. You'd need to scan through the file to find the closing tag, figure out what record that begins with -- it might actually span records -- then write your new tags in place of the closing tag and restore the closing tag.

You can capture the height and width of your custom view by capturing those values in the onSizeChanged method. By drawing your circle programatically you can easily make a progress circle that looks good at all resolutions. Also, you don't have to worry about different device resolutions, since you just need to control the size of the view in the layout. Or, you could extend the ProgressBar class and do the same thing.

Probably as good as it's going to get. Check out the delegation patterns discussed in this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/a38ecd2d9558d685 You could easily have a delegate object that tracks the time spent in a given activity by calling mDelegate.startTiming() / mDelegate.stopTiming() in onStart() / onStop(), respectively, in each activity. Note that you should use the onStart() / onStop() pair. If you show a dialog, for example, your activity is still in use but it gets onPause() called. - TreKing http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Appending nodes to an existing XML file
Well, there IS one way, sort of. You can have one XML file that has the outer tags, with a DTD that defines and entity that references a second file that contains a sequence of XML forms, and a reference to that entity between the outer tags. The need for two files is often reason enough to reject this approach. And, of course, it requires that your XML parser properly handle this sort of inclusion. On Saturday, May 14, 2011 11:12:50 AM UTC-7, DanH wrote: Can't be done. (Well, could be done, but would require some file calisthenics. You'd need to scan through the file to find the closing tag, figure out what record that begins with -- it might actually span records -- then write your new tags in place of the closing tag and restore the closing tag. It would be difficult to do all of this using standard XML scanners, so you'd have to write your own or hack an existing open source one. And most likely you'd not want to insert your new tags directly in the outermost tag environment, but nested somewhat, making for even more complicated code.)
