Thanks Kris,
yes, i am not using any thing either service or background thread
computation, but still it has been
consuming approx 2% CPU, i have been looking it through another
application Android assistant.

is there any way to know running thread of application from eclipse?
so that i can understand that, which thread is running and using CPU.

Imran,

Don't worry about this at all.  2% background usage is completely
normal and fine.  Your app is running always running some code:
because your app is actually an instance of a vm which is processing
messages on a looper.  So even if your app isn't doing intensive
processing, it's constantly checking to see if it got new messages,
doing gc, and related background things.

The same goes for any desktop application.  Open up your task manager
or run top on a linux box: you'll see tons of processes using ~1-2%
of the cpu time, it's completely normal application behavior.

[android-developers] Re: Receiving from two different instances of AlarmManager

2011-11-01 Thread Belvedere Computer Services
normally in Java ~ which I am reading is the Primary Programming
Linguistic for this Android Platform one would run that with Timer and
TimerTask - the Alarm Manager is intended for cases where you want to
have your application code run at a specific time, even if your
application is not currently running.

use of the word Airplane in your post suggests to me AnimationSet
will be productive the way your question is worded which would be
driven with CountDownTimer to use  then normally this would be driving
the AnimationSet and after reading one OHA tech page today you would
be best performance if these are nested classes as that would make
driving the call-stack efficient based on what the compiler would have
to do and the way they have CountDownTimer coded in  the sample code
that would be an idealized implementation of traditional Java code
written platform-specific for the Android

thus you would place one of these in ListActivity with (probably)
ListActivity being inside of Activity with CountDownTimer being
started from onCreate(Bundle) and careful attention to Activity
Lifecycle as documented ~ programming with anything with the name
Alarm sounds like programming with Exceptions and is not considered
correct practice

 I've been searching high and low about a particular problem I am
 having, but not able to find the solution. I am making an Android app
 that does the following:

 1. searches for signal and after a specified time (e.g. 5 minutes), if
 no signal is found, the app will enable Airplane mode
 2. After a another interval (e.g. 10 minutes), airplane mode is
 disabled and it checks again for a signal.

 I've asked about classes to accomplish this and my search came up with
 PhoneStateListener, AlarmManager, and Settings, but nothing to help me
 to check whether or not time has passed.

 The app is made out of four classes:

 nman - ListActivity (main class)
 nmanAir - Activity (class that sets time interval for airplane mode to
 be enabled)
 nmanRecheck - Activity (class that sets time interval in which to
 disable Airplane and check allow for signal to detected)
 Receiver - BroadcastReceiver (supposed to get one of the AlarmManagers
 and accomplish task, but does not work)

 I cannot make another Broadcast receiver without knowing how to get a
 specified AlarmManager. One is labeled as aSender and the other is
 labelled as bSender.

For (1) probably not, sms can be queued by the operator for quite a

 Hello,

 I would like to code with android's SMS interface, however I am
 somewhat new to SMS programming. I would like to know:

 1. If I send an SMS, can I be notified from the operator with some
 option about the timestamp in GMT for instance that the message
 was sent?

 I ask because I need to coordinate database manipulations across
 a distributed network of cellphones and am concened that if I use
 the time on each phone then if different phones have different
 timestamps things may get out of sync.

 2. Is there an alternate way of letting the phones know about any
 time discrepancies in their time tracking settings?

Hi,

I think you will find getAccuracy() will continue to vary within the
10 metres range or more. And you will not know which is 'most
accurate' without averaging the fixes over some period of time. All of
which is harder if the device is also moving.

Re: [android-developers] ExpandableListView expand/collapse question

2011-11-01 Thread Ash
The application that we are developing has 5 image buttons on the group 
view. Each image button is next to each other with some space between them. 
It is found that when we try to click on the image button the group view 
ends up expanding and it is not acceptable. Hence we have decided to decide 
the indicator image view as a way of expanding/collapsing the group view.

Anyway I have manged to get it working so no issues. However there is 
something that you can maybe advice.

Along with 5 image buttons the group view also presents other information 
in the form of text view. One of the text view indicates the time 
(hh:mm:ss). In order to achieve this, I wrote a timer which updates the 
counter and then calls 
the BaseExpandableListAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(). This gets called 
every second by the timer in order to show the time.

It is found that on several occasions the button click on the image button 
is ignored. Could this be related to the notifyDataSetChanged being called 
every second? If I stop my timer then button clicks are more responsive.

Can you please advice if there is other way of displaying a timer on the 
group view or the way I am currently doing it is acceptable?

Thanks

[android-developers] INSTALL_REFERRER not sent to custom receivers - New Market App

2011-11-01 Thread mscwd01
Hey

I used to be able to track installs of apps by placing the
INSTALL_REFERRER action in my manifest and pointing it to a custom
receiver. However, it seems the newest version of the Android Market
app has changed the way it handles the referrer string included in
market URLs, this means I can no longer track installs.

An issue was raised back in August but Google hasn't acknowledged it
and it's not clear if this vital feature is going to be fixed.

Does anyone know of a workaround that DOES NOT require extra
permissions that'll enable tracking of installs?

You can star the issue here:

i am new at this but i am sure what he is saying is A class
representing a geographic location sensed at a particular time (a
fix). A location consists of a latitude and longitude, a UTC
timestamp. and optionally information on altitude, speed, and bearing.
But what you are saying is that any transaction needs to have a time
stamp so you have to come up with some way of keeping all transactions
sync() which is remarkably challenging unless have one place issues
the transaction and all the others work off of the timestamp on the
originating transaction

if each of the cellphones can generate a transaction then keeping
everything sync() is an issue of concern that you need to look at very
closely

2011-11-01 Thread Chenna
You should have a barcode decoding engine to decode barcode from a
image frame. Camera API provides frames, which needs to be processed
for decoding barcoes. You can use Zxing  or RedLaser barcode scanners

Not necessarily. AlarmManager is also used for periodic events,

go away between bits of work (e.g., IntentService). Timer/TimerTask
requires you to keep a service in memory 24x7, which is an

[android-developers] Re: Android Game Development - Bluetooth Multi-player Functionality Question

2011-11-01 Thread gjs
Hi,

Possibly worth mentioning, your game play outlines two players but you
mention multi-player as well.

With Android it is possible to support more players over BT maybe 4 in
client server, possibly a few more in a daisy chain BT network. (Do a
google search for examples.)

As mentioned try to keep the BT isolated, you could readily do the
same over wifi.

Also keep the client and server logic separate. Whilst Player A (or B)
might run the server updating overall game logic, it should also be an
ordinary client communicating with the local server.

Perhaps as an implementation detail, the communications and server
might run in an Android Service and the clients as Android
Application.

Regards

2011-11-01 Thread Kostya Vasilyev
notityDataSetChanged rebuilds the view list, so yes, that could cause UI 
events to be missed.


As far as updating an {Expandable}ListView in a more efficient way - if 
you just need to refresh a few UI widgets - this can be done by:


- Asking the list view for the currently visible range of item views: 
getFirstVisiblePosition / getLastVisiblePosition


- Iterating over these positions, calling getChildView to get their 
views, remembering that child views are always numbered starting at 0, 
even if the view is scrolled down.


- Reaching into the item views by calling childView.findViewById and 
pushing changes with textView.setText, etc.


Don't forget also that a list view can be out of sync with its adapter 
(a layout is pending, but not yet performed), so to get a particular 
item view's data item, use a tag set inside get{Child|Group}View, and 
not the adapter's getChild / getGroup.

[android-developers] ContentProviderResult[] delete fail or success

2011-11-01 Thread Cel
When using contentResolver.delete(uri, null, null) then determining
success can be done by looking at the return value of how many rows
were affected.

However, deleting a contact through ContentProviderOperation and
applyBatch returns ContentProviderResult[]

How can you identify whether the delete operation was successful or
not from the ContentProviderResult object?

ArrayListContentProviderOperation ops =
  new ArrayListContentProviderOperation();

ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newDelete(Data.CONTENT_URI)
  .withSelection(Data._ID + =?, new String[]
{String.valueOf(dataId)})
  .build());

ContentProviderResult[] results =
getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);
if (results != null  results[0] != null)
{
// How to extract whether success or failure from results[0] ?
}


In my testing: (1a) I call the delete method and results.length == 1
(1b) I have a look and the contact is indeed deleted in phone Contact
(2) I call the delete method again even though the targeted contact is
already deleted, but it still returns results.length == 1. And no
exception is thrown...

Re: [android-developers] Re: EditText key press

2011-11-01 Thread Aki
Surprisingly I am able to detect the key press event of the ENTER key of 
the soft keyboard, but not of the character keys.
That doesn't seem like very consistent behaviour, if they don't work, none 
of them should work. Whats is special about the ENTER key?

 Thats sad. Actually I need to detect Key combos. I figured detecting the key

 Some way using which I will be able to detect key combinations?

I would not recommend using key combinations.

 I know key combinations are not an Android convention.

Correct. Beyond that, there's no native support for the concept.
KeyEvents can have a meta key (e.g., ALT) mixed in with a regular key,
but that's it.

 Still, I would like
 to try something out. Any help would be great :)

You're welcome to subclass EditText, implement onKeyDown() and try
stuff out, but I think you're going to have problems.

For example, let's say you wanted to do something when the user
pressed A and B at the same time. You're going to have two KeyEvents,
one for A and one for B. Let's say A arrives first in onKeyDown(). You
have no way to know if B will be forthcoming or not. If you chain to
the superclass for A, you will wind up with an A in the EditText. If
the user then presses B, not only will you need to do whatever key
combination logic you want, but you will also have to get rid of the
A.

Also, bear in mind that device manufacturers tend to tinker with
EditText more than other widgets. Context menus, for example, are
unreliable, as some device manufacturers appear to have implemented
their own long-click handler and are bypassing the context menu
system. It's entirely possible device manufacturers are playing games
with keypresses as well, in ways that might foul up whatever sort of
key combination support you manage to work out.

Also also, bear in mind that not all devices are multitouch, and the
emulator is not multitouch.

 PS : Big fan of your books. Keep up the good work!

Thanks!

Particularly on tablets, it triggers the action, at least on
single-line EditTexts. Perhaps that is why they treat it a bit
differently.

Re: [android-developers] Re: EditText key press

2011-11-01 Thread Aki
Thank you for the elaborate answer Mark. I will try out extending EditText.

You see, I came up with the idea of key combinations because I needed 
something corresponding to a shortcut, without taking up screen space. 
I am unwilling to use long clicks or gestures as they take too long to 
execute. If its a shortcut the user should be able to do it quickly.
So, how can I implement a shortcut without key combinations?

[android-developers] Starting Google Analytics session when application goes to background

2011-11-01 Thread Aki
I am using Google Analytics in my application. I would like the tracking 
session to be reset when the application goes to the background.
I would like to do it without having to maintain state of each activity (my 
application has quite many Activities and I would rather not update the 
application state in each Activities onCreate / onPause / OnDestroy).
Is this possible?

Moreover, I would like to differentiate between the application going to 
the background due to say a phone call or alarm to when the user actually 
presses the home or back button to exit the application.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

- Aki

I have no idea what a shortcut is.

If you don't put it on the screen, many users won't find it. This is
why the options menu is now in the action bar and why context menus
are waning in popularity. Even gestures are troublesome if there's no
visual cue to suggest that some sort of swipe is possible and will
have an effect.

[android-developers] ListView + EditText

2011-11-01 Thread John Gaby
I have a ListView which displays rows which can have a variety of
controls.  If the row contains TextViews, ImageViews, and/or Buttons,
everything works as expected.  However, if I add a EditText control to
a row, then I no longer seem to be able to select a row (touching
outside of the EditText control, of course).  Note that if I have a
button on the row, it still works, but if I touch the row itself,
onItemClick never fires.  Is it not possible to have EditText controls
on rows of a ListView?

ARM doesn't make the chips.  They design the IP cores for the chips,
so their main investment is the chip design, not the chip itself.  The
chips are made by many many other companies.

 Hello,

 I am the developer of this 
 application:https://market.android.com/details?id=com.netpatia.android.filteredco...

 The application looks just like another compass, but it uses readings
 coming from the gyroscope sensor (if present) to improve responsiveness and
 stability.

 The problem is that I currently have access to only one device having a
 gyroscope: an LG Optimus Black (LG-P790), and the gyroscope sensor
 implementation on such device seems to behave different than the rest of
 devices.

 So, the result is that after having done a lot of work implementing complex
 maths (like Kalman filters) I have a published application that only works
 as expected on a very few devices.

 I have a new version, with the necessary modifications so it should work on
 any device. I would like to confirm that it works properly but before
 publishing again something that does not behave as expected.

 So, please if any of you is having a device with gyroscope sensor (*) I
 would be very grateful if you can test the application and report if it is
 working as it should.

 (*) So far, I know about these devices having gyroscope sensor:

Re: [android-developers] ARMy of one?

2011-11-01 Thread John Davis
This shows how the arm specification is used inside the System on a
Chip (SoC) designed by qualcomm.  It also shows how these SoCs are in
smartphones, and tablets.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)

From the page it says, The Snapdragon application processor core,
dubbed Scorpion, is Qualcomm's own design.   I  believe that means it
is arm compatible instruciton set, but not an arm licensed cpu core.

[android-developers] Re: ListView + EditText

2011-11-01 Thread Kumar Bibek
I think it's possible. But I have never tried though.

But what I have learnt is that ListView aren't the best way to handle
such an UI.

This link would perhaps give you some more insights.

 I have a ListView which displays rows which can have a variety of
 controls.  If the row contains TextViews, ImageViews, and/or Buttons,
 everything works as expected.  However, if I add a EditText control to
 a row, then I no longer seem to be able to select a row (touching
 outside of the EditText control, of course).  Note that if I have a
 button on the row, it still works, but if I touch the row itself,
 onItemClick never fires.  Is it not possible to have EditText controls
 on rows of a ListView?

 Thanks.

[android-developers] Hide bottom status bar in Android 3.2 Honeycomb!

2011-11-01 Thread Sebastian Tomaszewski
Hello guys,

If this subject was already discussed somewhere in the forums with the
solution without ROOTing the device, I would like to apologize ahead of
time...

As we know that the Bottom Status Bar in the Android Honeycomb takes lots
of real-estate on the Tablet screen, since this is the case and one of my
applications that I am creating needs that space, is there someway to hide
it without ROOTING the device?

I research a lot on this subject and I haven't found any solutions that I
am looking for and at the same time I don't understand why there isn't way
to do that now (hide it, shrink it, move it, whatever) ...  What I
understand is that if some people will remove that completely, the users
will be stuck in that program and the only way to get out is to restart the
device...At the same time I would like to argue that the developer should
know better...

As fun ROOTING the system sounds, I again would like stay away from that

The following link contains some in depth discussion on this subject, since
March 10th, 2011... In fact some people did an in depth analysis on this
subject with the potential solutions... Does anyone know if this will be an
option in the near future without ROOTING the device?  If so, does anyone
know how of the near future that is going to be, because I am really on a
tight deadline here?
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15408

Please let me know if have any answers to my questions and I would like to
thank you ahead of time..

Thank you and Best Regards,



Sebo

Hmmm, Quite an issue. Can't help you more other than starring the
issue :)

BTW, frankly speaking, the location of the status bar is a bit weird,
as far as usability is concerned, especially the Back button. Hope,
that it gets fixed soon enough.

[android-developers] fragment Tag and onCreateView

2011-11-01 Thread Doug Gordon
Attempting to learn about fragments, and studying the docs and some 
samples, I am not really clear as to what the fragment tag represents 
in an XML file and how it relates to the fragment container view that 
is supposed to be passed to onCreateView. Mainly, in the sample that I'm 
using, which defines the fragment in the XML file using the syntax 
fragment android:name=... android:id=..., when onCreateView in 
the fragment is called, the 2nd argument (supposed to be the containing 
ViewGroup) is always null. What's up with that? Shouldn't it be the 
LinearLayout or whatever contains this fragment in the XML code?


In fact, the entire declaration of fragment confuses me, since I don't 
think that it is really a view by itself, so why does it have width and 
height dimensions? After all, if you dynamically add a fragment to a 
ViewGroup, it's the view returned by onCreateView that gets displayed, 
so why these dimensions?


Same thing with the fragment ID; is this the ID of the view created by 
the fragment, or of its container, or something else?


I must be missing a concept here, but maybe I just have to start working 
on my own code conversion to fragments and see what happens...

I have a .net c# application acting as a server listening on a
particular port, and an Android app that I'm building acting as the
client which will connect and send / receive tcp messages to / from
the .net server application.  I have it working at the moment but am
faced with a challenge that I'm hoping has a better solution than the
one I've implemented.  My Android app connects to the .net server
fine, upon successfully connecting the .net application sends back a
tcp message - my Android app receives this message but it won't
continue code execution whilst it's reading the connected stream
unless I close the network stream in the .net server application.
Below is the bit of code which handles reading / writing to the
network stream:

out = new PrintWriter( new BufferedWriter( new
OutputStreamWriter(socketObj.getOutputStream())), true);
in = new BufferedReader( new
InputStreamReader( socketObj.getInputStream()));

out.printLn(my command);

String text = ;
String responseStr = ;

while ((text = in.readLine()) != null) {
responseStr += text;
}

So the while loop above continues to execute until I close the network
stream in the .net app.  Is there some way of specifying to the
Android / Java network stream that the data being sent has ended so it
can break out that while loop and continue code execution apart from
closing down the network stream on the .net side?

Thanks for the help.

[android-developers] Best way to communicate between two applications (on the same device)?

2011-11-01 Thread Boozel
Hi

What is the best way for communicating between two applications?
I want to create a central management app for my suite of applications so 
the one app would request data from the other much like how applications 
can query the market app for licence information using androids Licencing 
verification library.

Thanks in advance.

2011-11-01 Thread Kristopher Micinski
You can fire intents between the two.

Or you can look into Messenger.

Or you can read up on AIDL, which is the most flexible but also
hardcore solution.

How much do the apps have to communicate?  A little?  Or a lot?  This
question determines which one of these is necessary.

Re: [android-developers] Re: CPU leak android application

2011-11-01 Thread Dianne Hackborn
It's a little more complicated than that.

2% of CPU usage in the background with the CPU running at normal speed is a
*lot*.

And really, an app in the background shouldn't be using any CPU.  If it is
sitting there blocked waiting for something to do, it won't use any CPU.
 The only reason it would use CPU is because it is waking up for some
reason to do something.

Another wrinkle is that Android devices aggressively scale the CPU, so 2%
of an essentially idle CPU may be a lot smaller because the CPU is running
at that point at a much lower frequency.

At any rate, my suggestion for debugging this is to run the profiler on
your app when it is in the background and look at what it is doing during
that time.

 Imran,

 Don't worry about this at all.  2% background usage is completely
 normal and fine.  Your app is running always running some code:
 because your app is actually an instance of a vm which is processing
 messages on a looper.  So even if your app isn't doing intensive
 processing, it's constantly checking to see if it got new messages,
 doing gc, and related background things.

 The same goes for any desktop application.  Open up your task manager
 or run top on a linux box: you'll see tons of processes using ~1-2%
 of the cpu time, it's completely normal application behavior.

Re: [android-developers] Re: search hardware button

2011-11-01 Thread Dianne Hackborn
The home button is not something applications ever see.

The back button is always required to be available on the device (even if
that is done through an on-screen affordance).

The search button has always been and is still one of many optional extra
keys.

The menu key until 3.0 was a required key.  Starting with 3.0 the platform
has been moving to make this an optional key, hence the need for the API to
find out about it.

 loading Chord with a Class. However, the Home, Back and Search buttons
 don't get such APIs.

Re: [android-developers] Starting Google Analytics session when application goes to background

 I am using Google Analytics in my application.


GA is not part of the SDK, so you're going to be hard-pressed to get a good
answer here. Try the GA documentation and see if there is a forum or user
group. I'll try anyway.


 I would like the tracking session to be reset when the application goes to
 the background.


You mean you want to call stop on the tracker? Why?


 I would like to do it without having to maintain state of each activity
 (my application has quite many Activities and I would rather not update the
 application state in each Activities onCreate / onPause / OnDestroy).
 Is this possible?


What state do you think you need to be tracking?


 Moreover, I would like to differentiate between the application going to
 the background due to say a phone call or alarm to when the user actually
 presses the home or back button to exit the application.


You can override the back key per Activity. Beyond that, there is no
difference in how your Activity gets stopped - it's just another activity
coming over it, which includes the Home activity.

[android-developers] String isEmpty()

2011-11-01 Thread Doug Gordon
Why in the world would my app crash with a No such method Java error 
on a statement like if (!myString.isEmpty() for a perfectly valid 
String object? If I simply change it to if (myString.length()  0) it 
works just fine, so it's not like I'm not pointing to a valid String 
object or anything.


Interestingly, this only appears to happen when running it on my actual 
Android 2.2 phone. It works OK on a V2.3.3 emulator. It is built with 
the V2.3.3 SDK. What gives?

Re: [android-developers] String isEmpty()

2011-11-01 Thread Romain Guy
Because String.isEmpty() didn't exist in 2.2. You can verify this by
looking at
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/String.html#isEmpty() and
checking the Filter by API level option at the top.

You should use TextUtils.isEmpty() instead.

Thanks. That explains a lot. This was a recent change. I thought surely 
I'd used that method before, but when I searched my entire project, 
isEmpty was nowhere to be found! It obviously wasn't available when I 
did my original development on Android 2.1.
