What exactly is the problem you are facing? You shouldn't do anything
manually with the created shared preferences XML file. Why do you
think there is a problem with it? If you didn't touch it, it should be
just fine.

[android-developers] Re: More traditional Android menu

Alex, a friendly suggesstion to you. If you believe you created
something useful, write and maintain a blog about it (Blogger it's
just a great platform www.blogger.com). In the blog you can explain
what are the limitation of the current menus and what improvements you
made to alleviate those limitations. You can even put some
screenshots, because a picture is worth thousand words. In my humble
opinion, with that approach you have better chance convincing people
to use your solution. Becoming angry in this discussion thread is not
going to take you anywhere.

[android-developers] Re: Why is the activity being destroyed/recreated (NOT a configuration change)?

I'm not sure if the Android framework makes any commitments that the
behavior you expect will be so 100% of the times. My humble suggestion
is, code accordingly without making assumptions that you'll see the
behavior you expect 100% of the times.

Re: [android-developers] SharedPreferences question

2011-11-16 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

Are you trying to let the user change the value with a preference activity,
and still get access to the value from code?

If so, make sure that the shared prefs storage is the same in both cases:

Option 1:

 - In your code snippet, call
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences() rather than
getSharedPreferences(settings), to get the same shared prefs storage as
used by the preference activity.

Option 2, opposite of option 1:

 - In your PreferenceActivity subclass, call
getPreferenceManager().setSharedPreferencesName(settings) telling the
prefs activity to use the same shared prefs storage as used in your snippet.

-- Kostya

2011/11/16 Larry/MavrickProductions ohiooutofdo...@gmail.com

 I have a need to store a single value - the year - so that it can be
 called from any activity in my app. Shared Preferences seems to be the
 easiest but I've got myself coded into a wall and could use a spot of
 advice.

 I think the problem is in my XML, but I'm not sure. Here's the
 pertinent snip of the java. It should be calling the setyear
 variable from the settings.xml file:

 SharedPreferences myPrefs = getSharedPreferences(settings,
 MODE_PRIVATE);
final SharedPreferences.Editor prefsEditor =
 myPrefs.edit();

int checkme = myPrefs.getInt(setyear, 0);
if (checkme  2011)
{
prefsEditor.putInt(setyear, 2011);
prefsEditor.commit();
}

 and the XML:

 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 PreferenceScreen
  xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
  
EditTextPreference
android:key=setyear
android:defaultValue=2011
/EditTextPreference
EditTextPreference
android:key=currlist
android:defaultValue=99
/EditTextPreference
 /PreferenceScreen

 Suggestions? Did I totally hose myself?

 Best, -Larry

Re: [android-developers] Help needed with dynamic layout change [UI Rearrange]

2011-11-16 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

This should work automagically. Do you have configChanges in the manifest
for the first activity?

2011/11/16 androidCrazy venky...@gmail.com

 I have two activities.

 The first activity has buttons arranged as per layoutfirst.xml in protrait
 mode and layoutfirst.xml in landscape mode, placed in layouts-land folder.
 The second activity is a text view.

 The navigation first view - button click - second view
 Change orientation to landscape in second view - click on back - comes
 to first view with deformed layoutfirst.xml of the portrait orientation. I
 want that to be changed to layoutfirst.xml in the layouts-land folder. To
 achieve this, in onStart() method of the first view, called
 setContentView(R.layout.layoutfirst);, the layout was changed accordingly
 but the screen freezes.

 Is there anything I'm missing or any other way to achieve this. Any help
 is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Best way to change android repository versions efficiently once downloaded using repo/git

2011-11-16 Thread bchoward

I've got a situation where I need to build a set of static copies of
Android source code of different release versions.

Simply doing an repo init -b $version; repo sync will take forever
(init requires interaction, and the syncs will be wasteful of my
bandwidth across versions).

My current setup is to download one base version (say 1.6_r1), copy it
to a new folder (android-1.6_r2) and then rerun init and sync (repo
init -b android-1.6_r2; repo sync). The sync fails sometimes though,
with errors like:

  ndk/build/platforms/android-3/arch-arm/usr/incl
Aborting Syncing work tree: 100% (153/153), done.

error: development/: platform/development checkout
caf83cb2b0ffde1a4cfb7cb258cbe012e283d9e1 Repo sync returned FAIL on
android-2.1_r2.1s

I've found some posts with similar errors that indicate this might be
caused by repo being out of sync with changed files in the
filesystem, but I'm wondering if my errors are caused by changing
versions under repo's nose.

Is this the right way to go about changing repository versions? More
generally, is there a time/bandwidth efficient way to turn an
android-1.6_r1 repository into an android-1.6_r2?

[android-developers] Capture Video + Circular Buffer for Video on Android

2011-11-16 Thread Joseph Irvine

Hello,

I am trying to build an application that would run on an Android set-
top box (not mobile device). The set-top box will have analog video
inputs.

I would like to capture the incoming video within Android.

Once I capture video, I am looking to see if there are any good SDKs
that provide circular buffers for video. I am space constrained and
would like to be able to capture video and have it set to recycle on
itself after a set period of time.

For instance, if I determine that I want a 30 minute circular buffer,
it would be nice if the 31st minute of captured video began
overwriting minute number 1. During playback, I would like the 30
minutes to appear seamless even across the circle back to the
beginning.

What is the best way to capture video in Android and process it
through a circular buffer? I fear that Android, being designed
predominately for mobile devices, may make this tricky for me. Is
there a convenient way to do this with MediaRecorder?

While this isn't actually my application, it is similar enough that it
will suffice for example: Say I want to hook a video camera to the
analog inputs (although I recognize digital would be better for this
scenario). I want it to only record the last 30 minutes worth of
activity, so that at any point I can review the last 30 minutes of
what has transpired, and it will always be the most recent.

Thanks,
Joseph Irvine

Re: [android-developers] device in sleep mode, service still working ?

2011-11-16 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

Depends on your definition of working.

It's not terminated, but the entire device may go to sleep, unless
something wakes it up.

If you have an open network connection (WiFi or mobile, not sure about
Bluetooth) and a packet comes in, the device will wake up for a short time.
Keeping it awake for a duration you might need to process that data is up
to you. Look up PowerManager.

Thanks for the reply again Mark, very useful information. The in-app
purchasing maybe the way for me to go so I'll have a read around that
subject. In theory I could create the structure of the app with
several modules which could be purchased as add on's. I could put in
the app store a version of the app several times but with one module
each to start with. The customer could purchase the version that suits
their needs to start with and then add other modules as they go. Maybe
also a version with all modules installed as well.

Anyway I'll have a good read about everything you mentioned and work
it all out.

Thanks

- using one glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, ...) call for each texture that
is rotated
- using one glDrawTexfOES(...) call for each textures that is not rotated

Experiments showed that usecase that causes problems is when:
* glDrawArrays is used between call to glDrawTexfOES and next call to
eglSwapBuffers(). Such glDrawArrays() call instead of rendering texture
will render rectangle using one color/alpha which will be taken from corner
of texture. If you have texture that has transcluent border (alpha = 0)
then whole rectangle will be invisible, if texture is opaque then rendered
rectangle will be visible and will be drawn using exactly one color.

Digging into details showed that call to glDrawTexfOES() corrupts texture
coordinates array (I set it using glTexCoordPointer() once for the whole
life of opengl context). I use the same texture coordinates for all
textures so there's no need to change once it is set. If I add call
to glTexCoordPointer() before each call to glDrawArrays then everything is
drawn correctly.

Possible workarounds - use cases that work correctly (everything is
rendered properly)
* use only glDrawArrays for rendering textures
* between calls to eglSwapBuffers() sort your calls so all glDrawArrays()
goes first, and glDrawTexfOES() later
* call glTexCoordPointer() before each call to glDrawArrays() that
succeeds glDrawTexfOES()

I'm not opengl expert but it looks like bug in this opengl implementation.
Let me know if I'm wrong.

 Hi,
 I have the same problem reported by one user of my game (for Galaxy S2).
 Textures that are rotated are either completely invisible or rendered
 incorrectly.

 I use opengl 1.0, without VBO and without mipmapping.
 As I do not have access to galaxy S2 I would be grateful if you post your
 solution once you find it.

 thanks

 I'm seeing a similar problem on that device, but I haven't spent any
 time looking for an answer yet. I see that you're using VBOs...I've read
 somewhere that some devices have trouble with them but I don't know if it's
 true or which devices might be affected. I also know that in my case I'm
 also using VBOs, but I'm not rotating the texture, I'm stretching it
 without a mipmap, and it's a JPEG.

 Sorry couldn't be more help.

[android-developers] how to apply preference style in user-defined theme

2011-11-16 Thread Bacon021

I defined a theme with an item named android:preferenceStyle, how
ever when I apply this theme to some activity, the related preference
items' style are still not what I defined.
The following is my style I defined and the usage.

frameworks\base\core\res\res\values\themes.xml:

style name=CustomActivityTheme
item name=android:windowBackground@drawable/bg_color/
item
item name=android:preferenceStyle@android:style/MyPreference/
item
item name=android:windowTitleSize54dip/item
/style

frameworks\base\core\res\res\values\styles.xml:

style name=MyPreference
item name=android:layout@android:layout/my_preference_layout/
item
/style

in CustomActivityTheme, the windowBackground has effect I can change
the color what I need, but MyPreference won't work, that means the
layout does't work.

The same way you do any other widget. DatePicker should not be special
in this regard. You could always look at the source code to

 I've got a situation where I need to build a set of static copies of

 Simply doing an repo init -b $version; repo sync will take forever
 (init requires interaction, and the syncs will be wasteful of my
 bandwidth across versions).

 My current setup is to download one base version (say 1.6_r1), copy it
 to a new folder (android-1.6_r2) and then rerun init and sync (repo
 init -b android-1.6_r2; repo sync). The sync fails sometimes though,
 with errors like:

 I've found some posts with similar errors that indicate this might be
 caused by repo being out of sync with changed files in the
 filesystem, but I'm wondering if my errors are caused by changing
 versions under repo's nose.

 Is this the right way to go about changing repository versions? More
 generally, is there a time/bandwidth efficient way to turn an
 android-1.6_r1 repository into an android-1.6_r2?

[android-developers] Re: device in sleep mode, service still working ?

2011-11-16 Thread SL@maxis




Depends on your definition of working.

It's not terminated, but the entire device may go to sleep, unless
something wakes it up.

If you have an open network connection (WiFi or mobile, not sure about
Bluetooth) and a packet comes in, the device will wake up for a short  
time.

Keeping it awake for a duration you might need to process that data is up
to you. Look up PowerManager.

[android-developers] Sensor events are received, but not working.

2011-11-16 Thread Raghav Sood

Having a little problem here. I am making an app that uses the GPS,
accelerometer and compass. GPS works fine. The problem comes with the other
two. According to the Log.d s splattered all over my code, the following
code receives the sensor events for the sensor with the int code 1, which
according to the docs is the accelerometer.

public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent evt)

   {

  float vals[] = evt.values;

  //Log.d(PAAR, Sensor triggered.);

  if(evt.sensor.getType() == Sensor.TYPE_MAGNETIC_FIELD ||
evt.sensor.getType() == Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION)

  {

 float rawDirection = vals[0];

 Log.d(PAAR, compass Sensor triggered.);

 direction =(float) ((rawDirection * kFilteringFactor) +

(direction * (1.0 - kFilteringFactor)));


   inclination =

(float) ((vals[2] * kFilteringFactor) +

(inclination * (1.0 - kFilteringFactor)));




  if(aboveOrBelow  0)

  {

 inclination = inclination * -1;

  }



 if(evt.sensor.getType() == Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER)

 {

aboveOrBelow =

   (float) ((vals[2] * kFilteringFactor) + (aboveOrBelow * (1.0
- kFilteringFactor)));

Log.d(PAAR, Accelerometer );

 }

  }

   }


Yet the if statement for the accelerometer doesn't kick in. Also why am I
not receiving the compass events? My device has a compass, I am 100% sure
of that. I register the sensors as follows:


sensorManager =
(SensorManager)this.getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);

  sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor( SensorManager.SENSOR_ORIENTATION),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);

  sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);


Ideas/solutions, anyone?

             (float) ((vals[2] * kFilteringFactor) +

             (inclination * (1.0 - kFilteringFactor)));



           if(aboveOrBelow  0)

           {

             inclination = inclination * -1;

           }



         if(evt.sensor.getType() == Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER)

         {

             aboveOrBelow =

               (float) ((vals[2] * kFilteringFactor) + (aboveOrBelow * (1.0 -
 kFilteringFactor)));

             Log.d(PAAR, Accelerometer );

         }

       }

   }

 Yet the if statement for the accelerometer doesn't kick in. Also why am I
 not receiving the compass events? My device has a compass, I am 100% sure of
 that. I register the sensors as follows:

 sensorManager =
 (SensorManager)this.getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);

       sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
 sensorManager.getDefaultSensor( SensorManager.SENSOR_ORIENTATION),
 SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);

       sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
 sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),
 SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);

 Ideas/solutions, anyone?

 Thanks

[android-developers] keywords

2011-11-16 Thread bob

Here is my top-secret business strategy:

Look at my top-performing apps in Android Market.

See what keywords they use.

Create more stuff with those keywords.

However, I can't find the keywords for my apps.  Are there no explicit
keywords for Android Market?

Re: [android-developers] After adding JAR file , getting error Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1

Try rebuilding your project, do a clean in eclipse or ant clean at
the terminal.  This usually fixes it.

Re: [android-developers] After adding JAR file , getting error Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1

(Or at least gives you a breaking build saying you've defined a class
twice, which you then have to go and fix, but have a more informative
error to work off of :-)

Thanks Mark! I'll work on updating the orientation code. Do you have any
idea why the if statement for the accelerometer doesn't kick in, even
though I am getting a couple of thousand sensor events for type 1?

Thanks

[android-developers] localization bloats my app - is there an alternative approach?

2011-11-16 Thread mot12

My app was about 1.5M, after adding 12 languages I am now looking at
3M because of the multiple string.xml files in the resources. Yes,
they are big but it only became a problem after adding all these
languages. And I want to add more languages...

Does anybody have an idea of how to localize with more awareness to
bloat?

These are the strategies I can think of. They all require some serious
work to put into practice:

1) Split the apk
- Create several language apks to reduce bloat.
- Make the existing apk people paid for just a license apk.
- The individual language apks are free in the market but will not
work without installation of the main apk.
Contra: one has to maintain several apk files

2) Download additional resources
- The apk contains only enough translations to instruct users to
download full language packages of their choice.
- The language packages downloaded onto the SD card (simple xml files)
- The app loads the xml file and creates its own table of resource
strings which is used instead of R.string.
Contra: This adds to the load time of the app if the string.xml is
really big.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your input,
Martin

There should be a TURBO option in the phone somewhere.

But honestly you creating 1.8MB of garbage (dereferenced objects) 3
times within each second, so your GC runs like crazy.

Things to look at:

 - Avoid repeated string concatenation
 - Pre-size your collection data structures
 - Keep caches of frequently-used values rather
   than reallocating them
 - Eliminate references to objects promptly when
   you no longer need them.

Re: [android-developers] Speed up dalvikvm calls

Those are garbage collections, you can't just ask the vm to quit
garbage collecting.  This usually implies that you are doing something
that takes a lot of memory (fire up the barcode scanner and turn on
logcat).

So basically, what type of app are you writing?

Short answer: no.

Longer answer: this probably means that your app isn't written well
enough (or you just need a lot of memory..)

[android-developers] My camera preview height is smaller than the pictures height

When i am showing the camera preview i can see a height,  and when i
make the photo, the photo shows more height than the preview. I mean
that i can see objects than i can't see on the preview.

How can i solve it?

THese are the parameters of my camera:

public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int
w, int h) {
if (mPreviewRunning) { //stopPreview() will crash if 
preview is not
running
camera.stopPreview();
}
Camera.Parameters p = camera.getParameters();
p.setPreviewSize(w, h);
p.setPictureSize(1024, 768);
camera.setParameters(p);
try {
camera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
} catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
camera.startPreview();
mPreviewRunning = true;

Re: [android-developers] Speed up dalvikvm calls

2011-11-16 Thread New Developer


Thanks to all

It is a video player   I'm using the MediaMetadataRetriever  so that I 
can load and if necessary stop and edit a bitmap


I've tried (obviously unsuccessfully to read the bitmap and make it 
smaller  (for the purpose of memory)
the original video is 1280 x 720  I was trying to save this as a  320 x 
180 bitmap  so as to use up less memory


mBitmap  = 
Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(retriever.getFrameAtTime(frame*1000) ,  320 , 
180 , false);

Item.setImageBitmap(mBitmap);//1280 x 720
mHandler.postDelayed(buffering, 5);
The quality drops radically  which is NOT good,


As it is I'm reloading into the same variable mBitmap the same size each 
time just basically a different set of pixels
What is the best way to setup the mBitmap variable that I keep using the 
same variable and the same memory  ?
I feel that this is deleting the old bitmap from memory then loading the 
new one.

So like a accordion   add,delete,add,delete,add,delete


Is there a way to expand the memory that this application  can use ?  
obviously there is going to be a limit (other apps running and the total 
memory found on the tablet)


Thanks  again to all

On Nov 7, 3:51 pm, Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com wrote:
 In-app billing does not allow free (of charge) items. You can refund a
 purchase once it's been completely processed (i.e. the money actually
 changed hands) and keep activation (it's up to the application code to
 treat refunded items as active: Dungeons does this).

 There is no expiration date either, although you could try unpublishing
 the item in the Dev Console - don't know if this affects existing
 transactions; it might. This assumes that the app does a restore
 transactions once in a while (which is subject to throttling on Google's
 side).

 Some similar requests for enhancements have been filed:

 ... but not specifically for coupon type functionality. You are welcome
 to do so (but I wonder if it makes any difference).

 At this time, I'd go with some other solution, perhaps an activator type
 application that could be installed alongside the main one, and would
 talk to your own server.

[android-developers] In-App purchase and a Paid entry (2 separate listings on android market)

2011-11-16 Thread androidmediadeveloper

Anyone encounter a situation where you had to place an app, with in-
app purchasing to pro as well as yet another paid entry on the
Android Market ?

We currently have a free app with an upgrade to pro option available
via in-app billing, and the product team wants to create more
discoverability for the app by asking for another entry in the
market as a paid app.

Any suggestions ? Can this be done with some sort of a stub apk ?
Also, how to treat situations where the free app might already exist
on the device.

Thanks !

So, you added 1.5MB of space with 12 languages. That's around 100KB
apiece. Since this stuff should be compressed in the APK, that's
probably close to 1MB of strings per language.

Hence, the solution would appear to be: make a less wordy app... :-)

Seriously, how big are your string.xml files?

Guess you could be right, Perhaps shifting all the sensor code to the newer
APIs could fix it.

[android-developers] Please Help with GPS Provider Switch

2011-11-16 Thread Tommy Hartz

 

Hey,

 

Right now when trying to get a user location I start with the GPS Provider.
I have a timer set for 30 seconds, If a location is not found in 30 seconds
the timer goes off and stops that location request. When that happens I move
to the Passive Provider. After 30 seconds if a location is not found I stop
the location request and move to the Network Provider.

 

My issue is that when the network provider gets called it never does
anything. If I start with the network provider it goes off just fine and
returns a location back to me. Below is the code I am trying to use:

 

gpsTimer.schedule(new TimerTask(){

  @Override

  public void run() {



startPassive();





  }

}, 3);



currentTimer = GPS;

 
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0,
locationListener);

 

private void startPassive(){



locationManager.removeUpdates(locationListener);



//Now we want to try for a Passive Fix

currentTimer = Passive;

passiveTimer.schedule(new TimerTask(){

 

  @Override

  public void run() {

startNetwork();

  }

  

}, 3);

Looper.prepare();

Looper.myLooper().quit();

 
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.PASSIVE_PROVIDER, 0,
0, locationListener);

 

private void startNetwork(){

locationManager.removeUpdates(locationListener);

currentTimer = Network;

Looper.prepare();

Looper.myLooper().quit();

 
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0,
0, locationListener);

 

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank so much in
advance.

Re: [android-developers] Speed up dalvikvm calls

2011-11-16 Thread New Developer


Thanks Daniel

Iam trying to call it every 5ms  But I would settle for as fast as possible.

I have tried so somehow buffer, thus trying to do all the I/O first and 
then just view
but this has failed hopelessly I can only load 15 frames into memory and 
then get an OutOfMemory


Do you by any chance know how to find the bandwidth of the Xoom and Sony 
S bus what is it capable of
If I have to call every 20ms  but get a smoother flowing video playback 
that would be fine.


It's just right now I read every 327  or 327000  frames
frame is not incremented by 1 but by 327  this works for the timing it 
now takes 15 sec to play a 15 sec video
BUT you are skipping so much that it is obviously  jerky and does not 
flow.  Would love to

increment frame by 10, but then then the handle cycle to be faster.

any ideas ?

thanks in advance

[android-developers] International / UTF-8 bug in java.util.zip

2011-11-16 Thread Lathe26

I have found the following bug in Android.  Where do I report it?

There is a bug in java.util.zip (likely in the ZipEntry class) where
the name of the ZipEntry is not properly encoded in the ZIP file.
This bug affects any UTF-8 characters that are not in the ASCII
range.  An example character is the '©' character, which is Unicode
codepoint 0x00A9 or in UTF-8 is 0xC2 0xA9.

The effect of this bug is that file names that contain non-ASCII are
read back with corrupt file names by other ZIP file reading programs
(ex: PKWare's PKZip or WinRar).  Thus, file names that contain
international characters or special symbols are being corrupted.

What is happening is as follows:
1.  By default, ZIP files contain file names that use the IBM 437
character set for historical reasons.  To use the modern UTF-8
encoding of the Unicode character set, a flag needs to be set in the
zip file.  This flag has been supported since ZIP file format version
6.3.2 which was released in September 2007.
2.  Android writes file names in UTF-8 format but does NOT set this
flag.
3.  What appears to be happening is that the flag field is a 16-bit
field that is stored in little-endian format.  The flag to be set for
UTF-8 support is bit 11.  Instead, bit 3 is being set.  Bit 3 is
documented by PKWare to mean ...fields crc-32, compressed size and
uncompressed size are set to zero  However, since the crc-32 and
size fields are not 0, I am guessing that the Android code is _trying_
to set bit 11 but is doing it in incorrect big-endian format and thus
accidentally setting bit 3.

For debugging / testing purposes, I used a hex editor to properly set
bit 11 in the zip file.  This enables other ZIP file reader programs
to properly decode the file names.  I have 2 example ZIP files, before
and after this hex edit, that demonstrate this bug that I can make
available.

Note: do not rely on Microsoft Windows 7 built-in zip reader program
for testing purposes to properly decode the file names since
Microsoft's implementation is known to have several zip-related bugs.

[android-developers] Problems when signing APKs with Java 7.

2011-11-16 Thread BoD

Hi!

I just spent a few hours on a signature problem when building our project 
with ant on a machine that has (Oracle's) Java 7 installed.
When trying to install this apk, I have this error: 
Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]

After looking inside the MANIFEST.MF file inside the apk, I noticed that 
the digests are in the form:
SHA-256-Digest: tXIm+feek/QDGP6yrxtgWDHyfl+XaND6lXbsY9gjZrA=
Whereas when building with Java 6, they have the form:
SHA1-Digest: lPHIYoqZ+2OpY0LPumyDkUdNdoc=

I then saw in the (Java 7) jarsign documentation the -digestalg options 
(http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/jarsigner.html).
When signing manually the apk with jarsign (instead of using the ant 
build), and passing -digestalg SHA1, I no longer have the problem.

I was wondering if this was a known issue, and if yes, is there anyway to 
fix it in an 'ant friendly' way?

Thanks a lot!

[android-developers] Fragment within a fragment?

2011-11-16 Thread Doug Gordon

So Fragment A is instantiated, inflates its view, and goes on its merry 
way. Can Fragment A later instantiate a Fragment B and add it to one of 
Fragment A's own child views, thus creating a sort of fragment within a 
fragment?


I can't think of a reason why not, but still don't have a really good 
grasp on how fragments are implemented and managed. Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: localization bloats my app - is there an alternative approach?

2011-11-16 Thread Kevin TeslaCoil Software

Actually in a normal build the resources.arsc file isn't zip
compressed with the other files are and it can be quite large.
Manually running aapt can compress it (and does by default), but then
you get really weird force closes on some froyo devices. I've been
meaning to ask about why this is.

But my advice is not to split the APK and translations. It will create
a lot more work for you and confusion or bugs for users. And phone's
storage space is just getting large.

So, you added 1.5MB of space with 12 languages. That's around 100KB
apiece. Since this stuff should be compressed in the APK, that's
probably close to 1MB of strings per language.

Hence, the solution would appear to be: make a less wordy app... :-)

Seriously, how big are your string.xml files?

working on a service,so a person that knows how to work with that,would be 
awesome.

[android-developers] Re: Multiple Apps and Content Providers, How to ?

2011-11-16 Thread swebb99

Right I've had a read around in-app purchasing and I think its the way
to go.

My thinking is I release the initial version of the code probably
without in-app code, just get it out there. Then I do an update when
ready which add in-app purchasing. The extra logic to be bought will
already be in the app just not enabled. When the customer makes a
purchase the extra logic is enabled. Whenever I do updates another
extra bit of functionality maybe provided which may require a purchase
and the purchase screen will have extra entries. Should all work quiet
well I think.

Thanks

Steve

 So Fragment A is instantiated, inflates its view, and goes on its merry way.
 Can Fragment A later instantiate a Fragment B and add it to one of Fragment

No, sorry, Ms. Hackborn has indicated that nesting fragments in
fragments is not supported. There's a StackOverflow post or two on
this topic.

 Manually running aapt can compress it (and does by default), but then
 you get really weird force closes on some froyo devices. I've been
 meaning to ask about why this is.

If you can reproduce the problem, it seems like a fine issue for
b.android.com, perhaps with a side post to the adt-dev Google Group
about why they aren't compressed by default.

Regardless, my apologies to the OP for my error.

[android-developers] Problem when I add a header to the list of a PreferenceActivity on Honeycomb

2011-11-16 Thread Julien Del Rio

Hi everybody,

I work on the Honeycomb version.

I add an header to the list in my PreferenceActivity using
getListView().addHeaderView(header).

But now, I think there is a problemn on the index of the list. When I
click on a line, the onPreferenceTreeClick return the previous line.

Do you have an idea for managing this problem ?

Thanks,

[android-developers] Programmatic gallery scroll on a timer?

2011-11-16 Thread noobler

Hi,

I need to implement a gallery which scrolls one item at a time, and
which can do 'autoscroll': i.e. every couple of seconds, it
automatically scrolls to the next item.
I extended Gallery, overriding onFling to ignore the fling event and
instead simulate a DPAD arrow left or right in order to move a single
item at a time:

@Override
public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float
velocityX, float velocityY) {
  int kEvent;
  if(isScrollingLeft(e1, e2)){ //Check if scrolling left
kEvent = KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_LEFT;
  }
  else{ //Otherwise scrolling right
kEvent = KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_RIGHT;
  }
  onKeyDown(kEvent, null);

  return true;
}

This works well.
For the auto scroll, I create a handler and postDelayed a runnable
which simulates the same DPAD key press in the same way:

handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
onKeyDown(KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_RIGHT, null);
}
}, AUTO_SCROLL_INTERVAL);

but this doesn't do anything!! I know the runnable gets executed as
expected at the correct interval, since I logged it and confirmed
this, but the onKeyDown does not cause the gallery to scroll or switch
items.
Why would this work in one method and not another?
I looked into the Gallery code for clues, but found nothing! It seems
as though it should work.
Please, I'm stumped... any ideas?

Thanks

[android-developers] sound spectrum analyzer

2011-11-16 Thread ron simon

Hi Dev. Team,
I want to create a spectral analyser but I'am new in this field . For
writing a content from a music file in an array I used this

try {
File file = new File(mFileName,
array_spinner[Getposition()]);
 file.createNewFile();
 InputStream  is = new FileInputStream (file);
 BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream
(is);
 DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream
(bis);

while (dis.available()  0)
{
dis.read(buffer,byteOffset,byteCount);
}
 dis.close();

 //write buffer into a text file

After that I wrote this buffer in a txt file for reading.

Text.setTxtDatei(test,buffer);

The problem is that the content is allways the same for every music
file.So it can not be the buffer of the stream.
So the question is how to get the buffer into the txt file ?

Yours,
Ron

[android-developers] FragmentMap + ActionBar Tab

2011-11-16 Thread m3n0R

I have a problem I've been trying insert a MapView into a ActionBar
Tab, but I wasn't able to solve the problem even googling...

Here is the Main Activity:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//setContentView(R.layout.action_bar_tabs);
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content,
GigLoader.GigLoaderListFragment.newInstance()).commit();

 
getSupportActionBar().setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);

ActionBar.Tab tab1 =
getSupportActionBar().newTab().setText(Geo).setTabListener(this);
ActionBar.Tab tab2 =
getSupportActionBar().newTab().setText(Lista).setTabListener(this);
getSupportActionBar().addTab(tab1);
getSupportActionBar().addTab(tab2);
}

@Override
public void onTabSelected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
if (tab.getPosition() == 0) {
fm.beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content,
GigLoader.GigLoaderListFragment.newInstance()).commit();
}
else {
fm.beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content,
GeoGigLoader.GeoGigMapFragment.newInstance()).commit();
}

}

And here the code of the GeoGigLoader:

public class GeoGigLoader extends FragmentMapActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}

public static final class GeoGigMapFragment extends Fragment {

static GeoGigMapFragment newInstance() {
GeoGigMapFragment map = new GeoGigMapFragment();
return map;
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup
container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view =
getActivity().getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.map_gigs,
container, false);
MapView mapView = (MapView)view.findViewById(R.id.map_view);
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
return view;
}

}

@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
return false;
}
}

FragmentMapActivity is a library from actionbarsherlock.com, and this
one extends from a MapActivity, so it should work...

The error I get, is the next one:

FATAL EXCEPTION: main E/AndroidRuntime(954):
android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #2: Error
inflating class com.google.android.maps.MapView E/AndroidRuntime(954):
at android.view.LayoutInflater.createView(LayoutInflater.java:513) E/
AndroidRuntime(954): at
android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:565)

Anybody knows what's happening? Thx!!!

[android-developers] setting permission...

2011-11-16 Thread Nishit Soni

I am developing a project which utilizes oauth (client side).
I am unable to retrieve the request tokens.
The error shown in the catlog (eclipse) is : communication with the
service provider failed : the target server failed to respond

I think it is because of no permission being set in the manifest
file..
Can anyone suggest how and which can I set permission for this
problem..?

Thanks..

[android-developers] OpenGL on android

2011-11-16 Thread John Goche

Hello,

I am new to OpenGL and would like to write some
code in it for Android. I wonder whether there are
any significant differences in the android implementation
compared to JOGL http://jogamp.org/jogl/doc/HowToBuild.html
(which also has a quite involved setup process).

I ask because I was thinking of developing in JOGL in order to
speed up the process and then when the project is ready port
the code to android (which has a slower emulator compile,
load, and test development cycle).

Also, would I find a .OBJ (Wavefront) parser anywhere on
android or must I implement/import my own? I ask because
I would require one to read my model into OpenGL/Java.

Comments and suggestions on how to proceed welcome,

Thanks,

John Goche

Re: [android-developers] Re: localization bloats my app - is there an alternative approach?

2011-11-16 Thread Dianne Hackborn

They aren't compressed so that they can be mmapped when starting the
process, instead of having to decompress and copy the entire resource block
to RAM.  You really do not want that file compressed.

One thing to look at is that you are building against a the min SDK version
at which the platform switched to UTF-8 for resource strings.
