Re: [android-developers] Dialog dismiss()
On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 2:14 PM, Greg Donald gdon...@gmail.com wrote: How can I keep my dismiss() calls from blowing up? Keep a class-level reference to the dialog and dismiss it if you're being destroyed. Or use showDialog() / dismissDialog(). The issue (I ran into this): 1 - You show your dialog in Activity instance A. 2 - You rotate device while it's still showing. 3 - Background thread is still running in Activity instance A which is now being destroyed. 4 - Background thread finally finishes and tries to dismiss a dialog that is no longer attached to the original Activity instance A. 5 - Boom. Why doesn't try/catch work? I *think* because dismiss is asynchronous - calling dismiss just puts the dialog in the queue for cleanup.

[android-developers] ViewFlipper with arbitrary number of Views
Hi! I'm developing a simple photo gallery application that pulls files from the Net and uses a ViewFlipper to change Views. Since I don't know how many Views the ViewFlipper will have, I have to add all the views in code and not in XML. My question is: are all the Views of the ViewFlipper loaded in RAM? If I use, fo instance, a gallery with 100 or even 1000 photos with 320x480, will I run the risk of running out of memory or is Android smart enough to and fetch and drop Views from memory as needed? The alternative is the use a ViewFlipper with just 3 views (current, previous and next) and load photos as needed but it is a cumbersome process. Nevertheless, if anyone has a code example, I will be very grateful. Thanks in advance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

There's a bug where after the logcat buffer gets full it wipes itself continuously (you'll see one line at the top sometimes).

[android-developers] Re: Live wallpaper thumbnail 208x192?
It's 208x192 on the Xoom. Not square. Other people have noticed this too. http://blog.perpetumdesign.com/2011/04/honeycomb-live-wallpaper-icon-mystery.html Adding an xhdpi drawable doesn't make any difference since the Xoom is an mdpi device. However, I can add a 208x192 drawable to drawable- xlarge to make the thumbnail appear on the Xoom without messing up the thumbnail on mdpi phones.

However, from my testing on the emulator and real devices, it seems that the clearest/sharpestthumbnailimages are obtained by doubling the resolution of the icon size for each density. So for HDPI which has an icon size of 72x72, use 144x144 for thewallpaperthumbnail. For MDPI with an icon size of 48, use 96. For LDPI with icon size of 36, use 72. Following this pattern, if XHDPI is double the density of MDPI, it should have an icon size of 96, hence I would expect 192x192 for thethumbnail, at least one dimension of you are reporting below.

[android-developers] Re: Publish modified APK to the Android Market without triggering an Update to existing users?
I don't think you can do that. My users have been understanding of updates that have to go out for the sake of compatibility with other devices. I use minor version numbers like 3.0.1, .3.0.2 etc for minor fixes or compatibility updates, and when they run the app after an update, it shows what has been updated and I provide further explanation if the update doesn't affect all users. Android users should be understanding because they know there is a TON of hardware out there that we have to support.

[android-developers] can you switch screen orientation via an app?
My new tablet (Archos 101IT) thanks to a friend from college) allows you to lock the screen orientation in either portrait or landscape, IF you want to. 99% of the time, I like to keep it in landscape mode. HOWEVER, there are a few apps which really work best in portrait. As it is now, I have to go into settings and switch the orientation back to rotate with the tablet. What I'd LIKE to do is have an app in the launcher pro dock that will change the setting to portrait, and then later set it back to landscape. Basically something similar to WiFi On/Off, Airplane mode On/Off, etc Does anyone know if this is possible? And if so, can you point me to the right terms to search for in the dev guide?

Re: [android-developers] Dialog dismiss()
The problem is that you are attempting to update the UI in a foreign thread.
This line: progressDialog.dismiss();
You seem to be using a handler, so just change it to:
handler.postRunnable(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
progressDialog.dismiss();
});
Don't ever touch the UI outside of the UI thread.
To handle rotation, save a static instance of your activity in your
onCreate() method and remove it on onDestroy();
So, something like:
static MyActivity mStaticSelf = null;
onCreate() {
mStaticSelf = this;
}
Then change your handler code to:
@Override
public void run() {
mStaticSelf.progressDialog.dismiss();
});

Re: [android-developers] Dialog dismiss()
dismiss() can be called from any thread: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Dialog.html#dismiss() It just queues the dialog up for cleanup - or something along those lines. Hmm, I see. I would argue it shouldn't be thread safe, since it violates the don't touch the UI rule. But yeah, I highly recommend using showDialog/removeDialog and don't bother holding an instance of the progress dialog yourself. This, along with the static activity should work ok if you want a quick fix. Or, you'll have to use saveinstance to save status of your app and handle it accordingly in onCreate(). This is why Greg's code path is not in the stacktrace. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] What is wavelock in PowerManager API
copied Wakelock documentation below. Wakelocks = A locked wakelock, depending on its type, prevents the system from entering suspend or other low-power states. When creating a wakelock, you can select if it prevents suspend or low-power idle states. If the type is set to WAKE_LOCK_SUSPEND, the wakelock prevents a full system suspend. If the type is WAKE_LOCK_IDLE, low-power states that cause large interrupt latencies, or that disable a set of interrupts, will not be entered from idle until the wakelocks are released. Unless the type is specified, this document refers to wakelocks with the type set to WAKE_LOCK_SUSPEND. If the suspend operation has already started when locking a wakelock, it will abort the suspend operation as long it has not already reached the suspend_late stage. This means that locking a wakelock from an interrupt handler or a freezeable thread always works, but if you lock a wakelock from a suspend_late handler you must also return an error from that handler to abort suspend. Wakelocks can be used to allow user-space to decide which keys should wake the full system up and turn the screen on. Use set_irq_wake or a platform specific api to make sure the keypad interrupt wakes up the cpu. Once the keypad driver has resumed, the sequence of events can look like this: - The Keypad driver gets an interrupt. It then locks the keypad-scan wakelock and starts scanning the keypad matrix. - The keypad-scan code detects a key change and reports it to the input-event driver. - The input-event driver sees the key change, enqueues an event, and locks the input-event-queue wakelock. - The keypad-scan code detects that no keys are held and unlocks the keypad-scan wakelock. - The user-space input-event thread returns from select/poll, locks the process-input-events wakelock and then calls read in the input-event device. - The input-event driver dequeues the key-event and, since the queue is now empty, it unlocks the input-event-queue wakelock. - The user-space input-event thread returns from read. It determines that the key should not wake up the full system, releases the process-input-events wakelock and calls select or poll. Key pressed Key released | | keypad-scan ++ input-event-queue+++ +++ process-input-events +++ +++ On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 3:45 PM, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 5:42 PM, Sarath Krishna sarathkrishn...@gmail.com wrote: I was reading about PowerManager API .

[android-developers] Re: log disappears
A common reason for its disappearance is that Eclipse somehow lost track of which device it is supposed to be connected to. Clock on the little 'Device' icon in the DDMS perspective to make it come back. But this irritating disappearing trick, and a few other inconveniences, is why for serious debugging, I do not rely on the DDMS perspective: I open a terminal window (yes, I run Eclipse under Linux) and use a command line such as adb logcat or even adb logcat tee | logcatout.txt to keep a copy for handy searching later. Sometimes even this fails, but then stopping and restarting adb almost always fixes it.

[android-developers] Re: close button
Mark is right. Implementing a 'close box' under Android is a bad idea, because it is misleading to the user. The truth is that the Android OS does NOT support the notion of 'close' for apps. It implements a different paradigm, one more like SymbianOS (yechh!) than like Windows. The user leaves apps and enters others, but it is the system that decides to definitively CLOSE them, killing the hosting process. Many Android apps really do follow this Symbian-like pattern, so it is reasonable to expect users to be used to it, even to prefer it in Android apps. Now I realize that many people have a spec from the client that asks for this close box. But in that case, the best procedure is to negotiate with the client, explaining why this is a bad idea, misleading to the users. If the client refuses to see the light, the closest you can get to a close box is to call Activity.finish() (on the current activity) after sending a message to all your other activities and possibly Services, BroadcastReceivers to do similarly (for a ordered Receiver this would be AbortBroadcast) But as Mark said, this is a bad idea. For one thing, doing similarly is not straightforward, since Services and BroadcatReceivers do NOT have a finish() method. And what about data connections? Are you going to have to shut down the ContentProviders too? Finally, look at the link Mark gave. It is a good explanation from a slightly different POV of why you should not do a close/exit box.

I just emailed, and the Twitter representative was very helpful. I got my XAuth key sorted in about 3 days. Of course, you must justify why you need it...

[android-developers] Cure your android cancer
Hi, I'm surprised, I wrote a snippet tool to cure one of the 5,000 Android cancer cells running through your veins. Only a 50-100 downloaders. http://marketplace.eclipse.org/node/113218 This should should feel like heroin. Once a brilliant idea for an OS now a garbage dump, get whatever you have to do done and get paid. I was a sandwich artist once, I made good sandwiches.

[android-developers] Outgoing Number Broadcast Receiver.
Hi,
I'm not sure if this is known issue at least I see some problems being
reported in older posts.
I dynamically registered a broadcast receiver in my Service class for
Outgoing call - code snip is below:
onCreate() {
:
IntentFilter ifNum = new IntentFilter();
ifNum.addAction(Intent.ACTION_NEW_OUTGOING_CALL);
registerReceiver(mNumReceiver, ifNum);
:
}
public static class OutgoingNumRecv extends BroadcastReceiver {
public OutgoingNumRecv() {
Log.d(LOGTAG, Object Created for OutgoingNum);
}
public void onReceive(Context ctxt, Intent newInt) {
Log.d(LOGTAG, Got the OutgoingNum receiver event);
}
}
Without static it is working fine in Emulator but it wasn't receiving
any events in HTC device. So thought of making it static and add this
in AndroidManifest.xml.
In AndroidManifest.xml
application
:
receiver
android:name=.MyTestService.OutgoingNumRecv
android:enabled=true
android:exported=true
intent-filter
android:name=android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL /
/receiver
:
/application
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS/
:
Still I do not see broadcast events being received and I also upgraded
my phone to Gingerbread version (2.3.3 and kernel 2.6.35.10).
Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Got the Bluetooth blues: Service Discovery Failed
Hi,
Are you sure you are using the correct UUID value for your device ?
The default UUID in bluetoothchat usually needs to be changed, see the
Android bluetooth docs.

Here is what my app (VERY closely based on BluetoothChat) is telling

Does anyone know? Android folks?

ok sori guys. the thing is that by default telnet doesnot work in vista. so we need to install the telnet client in vista first for this command to work Control panel - programs and features - Turn windows features on or off - select telnet client installation takes few minutes. u r done ... It works! regards, Krishna On Sep 9, 10:35 am, krishna chaitanya chaitanya.ju...@gmail.com wrote: hi all, I am trying to simulate location updatesusingemulatorconsoleusingtelnet.
