[android-developers] Re: ics menu problems

[Zsolt Vasvari]

What's the story with the soft menu button on the ICS 4.0.3 (SDK 15)
emulator?

When I run my app, I get the menu button on the title bar most of the
time, but then when I have a Dialog open, it's displaying the button
on the bottom right (and does nothing, of course.)

Unfortunately, I have no access to an ICS phone here in Singapore.

[android-developers] After clicking Activate must I click Save too?

[Droid]

I should know this but
In Android market I upload a new apk version and hit 'Activate'
button.
Simple question - must I hit the 'Save' button to make users start
updating the App or is 'Activate' enough?

[android-developers] Re: SENDING YUV-TO-JPEG CONVERTED BUFFER AS A BITMAP from JNI to Android code...plzzz help...Not a Noob , Am i??

[Stephen Williams]

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Bitmap.html#createScaledBitmap%28android.graphics.Bitmap,%20int,%20int,%20boolean%29

Many things in Java, especially graphics operations, are implemented 
mainly by native code.  I've traced 2D graphics calls all the way down 
to very specific JNI calls for particular transformations or bitblit or 
whatever.  So, there's often little point in writing your own native 
code to implement something that the libraries already do since often 
they are well optimized.  If you want to do something not already 
included, then it can make sense to go native.

The issue with the progress indicator being visible by default has been
there for a long time - since 3.something.

[android-developers] Re: How to determine what Activities are bound to my Service

[Bsweet]

Diane and Mark,

Thanks for your help.  I am able to determine the calling
applications.

Harri, if you are curious this is what I did:

1. Activity binds to my service and makes a call to my remote service
requesting a token.
2. In the remote binder interface, the service uses
Binder.getCallingUid to get uid, then package then signatures
3. Service generates a UID (token) and associates the signature in a
cache with that token.  Token is returned to activity
4. Activity unbinds from token binder and binds again to my actual
service binder.  Passes the token in the intent.  Service validates
the signature.

Thanks again all!

[android-developers] Re: problem parsing the package

[rachana govilkar]

Need help in MMS issue.
This is the flow.
I open my application and after i login i get a screen of writing
message.This message can be SMS/MMS but right now i am concerned about
MMS so i write some text and click on "Add Attachment" button.
Then it shows me another screen of adding image/video/audio.Whenever i
select a image/video/audio it must be displayed on 1st
screen where there is ImageView or whatever.
Here i am not able to see that selected thing.
I use XPERIA ARC n it works in your android way of showing me the
attachment.
But in my application complete flow is working correctly except last
part of showing attachment.
so i am not getting what i must do?can u just explain?
thanks.

Re: [android-developers] How to run application in background on click of device back button

[lbendlin]

I guess the second question is - can you start an application from a URL?  
(In iOS you can sort of register custom URI schemes, and tell the OS to 
redirect these links to your (installed) app).

3.  moveTaskToBack(true);

Keep in mind that you should stop all UI activities when your app moves to 
the background (like, updating the "my location" icon on the map). You can 
re-enable them in onResume();

[android-developers] Re: how to make minor changes but not push out an update

[John Coryat]

If you have any code in the app that saves user preferences or other data, 
you could use that to check if the user was new to the app or not and show 
ads only to those that have never used it before. If you don't have any 
configuration or saved settings, it may be difficult.

You might just give your users a free opt-out option. That way if they were 
annoyed by your placement of ads, they could simply stop them. I think 
you'll find it's a relatively small percentage, like 4%, who object to ads.

Who is going to use this application? If it's just for you or it only
connects to your sever, that is good enough. If you want to make it
possible to add certificates, you just need to copy that keystore to
a mutable location, under (/data) and write some code to import
certificates. Other than that, initializing the trust store is the same.

This is not possible prior to ICS. Certificates and keys imported from
that menu are only used *and* visible by the VPN and WiFi clients.
There is no API for SDK applications to access the imported
certificates. You probably can't write one either because you need
system permissions to connect to the native keystore daemon.

If you are interested in the details, read this:

You need a mutable keystore for your app to do this. You would catch
verification errors, show a dialog to the user, and if they decide to trust
the cert, add it to the store (pretty much everyone will click 'OK' without
thinking, but make it a big, fat warning). Then try to connect again, and
it should work. This is not trivial, but if you really need it, do check how
K-9 and others are doing it, they've probably thought about things you
will miss on your fast pass.

Use ICS :) If you need to use both, load the system trust store, then
add the certificates from your own to it. IIRC, BouncyCastle has a
on memory KeyStore class that makes this easier. Then use the
resulting collection to initialize your TrustManager's.

[android-developers] WindowManager.LayoutParams window z-level

[dashman]

In my app I create a window that I display depending on context.

This window gets displayed above the system menu z-level layer -

i.e. the window hides a portion of the menu.

I would like this window to be displayed behind the menu.

WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = new
WindowManager.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_APPLICATION,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE
|
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);

I just wanted to second that.  Personally, if I can't make sense of the
post without having to try and figure out what the OP meant, I just
delete it and move on.  That's assuming that the Subject line (or the
portion of it that doesn't fall off the side of the screen, as that's all
I see---the first few words matter), I usually don't even bother to read
it at all.

I also skip posts where what appears to be a question is worded as a
stateement (usually also with no question mark), or with statements that
have question marks instead of periods (and this is far too common with
American-English speakers, too).  Every now and then, if I'm in the mood
to try to help, I will at least try to figure it out...otherwise, delete
and move on.

With that, I'm out of here...other stuff to do.

[android-developers] Re: how to make minor changes but not push out an update

[martypantsROK]

can't do the version code/name as Market uses that to handle your
available apps.  I would recommend
using XML. Put whatever data you want to push without update into XML
on a server somewhere
and have your app read/parse that.  Always fresh, always updated.

putting this line in the manifest solved the problem



but i will look at the github link also...


for others migrating apps to 4.0...another gotcha

if you have the following in your activity:

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS);

you have to call the following right after the setContentView()

setProgressBarIndeterminateVisibility( false );

In your stack trace there's this one line indicating line number in your code 
causing problems. Apparently you're trying to read a preference as an integer

Hi,

Also, I was only referring to this document which gives easy to implement 
support for both API level prior to 11 and 11+;

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html

Especially the "Adding the Action Bar" section.

Come-on guys, what a silly question being asked in this list lately?
You want to become an Android developer? Install the necessary tools
(you can find all information here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
and get started by implementing your "Hello World" program. You want
to swim my friend? You need to jump into the pool, whether you have
ever swum before or not. That's the way you become software
developer!

Problem lies within your while -loop. First you try to read "size" amount of 
data but write only "in.read()" which returns exactly one byte. Using 
"f.write(buffer)" should fix your copy method. Anyway, in general it's usually 
safest not to rely on InputStream.available() to return actual amount of bytes 
it has to offer. Yet alone expect InputStream.read(buffer, 0, size) read 
exactly the amount of bytes you're asking for.

In your case;
InputStream is = assetManager.open("filename");
byte[] buffer = new byte[8192]; // Fixed size buffer
int len;
while ((len = is.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1) {
os.write(buffer, 0, len);
}

Might be more reliable solution.

That sample application correctly shows the "three dots" on a Galaxy
Nexus and on an emulator with hw.mainKeys=no. It does not show the
"three dots" on an emulator with hw.mainKeys=yes, simulating a device
that has the off-screen keys. Figure out where you are doing things
differently than I am and track down where the difference lies.

If you are testing with the emulator, make sure you are on the latest
Android 4.0 emulator image and the r16 tools.

Does this mean that i'll have to have 2 different executables -
one for pre-4 and another for 4+.

Can you tell me why actionbar "in this case".

if you can explain a little bit - i'd be more than happy to do the
rest.

i'm confused because my app just opens a standard menu - this would
mean all pre 4.0 apps need to be modified.

Looks like you got a few replies. If you still need help, bump the original

Yes - but people are more likely to help others that take the time to
formulate a well written question and don't write like a 14-year-old girl
texting her friends (I'm not saying you are, that's an extreme analogy).
Otherwise many people will dismiss you as spam or not take you seriously.
My advising you to review your post was me trying to help you get help on
your Android issue, if you can believe that.

[android-developers] Re: question about lockscreens

[Kevin TeslaCoil Software]

> But does this mean that you guys are opposed to well known apps

Well I'm the developer of WidgetLocker, so I'm not opposed to it at
all :P. But this list is about developing apps that following the
documentation, guidelines and restrictions of the SDK. WidgetLocker
does not. I know it's hypocritical but I recommend other app devs,
especially ones just starting, follow the SDK.  It's safer and easier,
and (mostly) protects you from fragmentation (I test against ~20
devices. I still need more). As you noticed, this list isn't very
helpful if you chose to ignore the SDK rules. I imagine most devs that
do, including myself, don't discuss it much. If you choose to ignore
them, you're on your own.

> I wish to make an app that
> acts as a lockscreen. it would disable the home button, disable the

Implementing security in an app, rather than at the system level, is a
huge task and well beyond the scope of this list. There isn't even
anyone to discuss it with, as it has not been done. Find an app that
implements "security" (Note: WidgetLocker does not. There is good
reason.) and if you can't bypassing it in less than 5 minutes, you
aren't trying hard enough. Android is designed to disallow apps from
blocking other apps.

Even ignoring the Home and recent apps buttons, what about an incoming
call? Or a phone reboot? Or a SMS popup? Or any notification in the
notification bar for that matter? Or a malicious app? Or a task
killer? Or the system task killer? Or out of memory? Or a bug causing
a force close? It certainly is possible to display a screen that
prompts for a password and when the password is enter the screen
disappears. But implementing it in a manner that is more than just a
false sense of security is very different. I theorize that with root
and/or a device admin and a slightly-to-incredibly awkward user
experience it's possible, but even if that's true it's a lot of work
and a lot of testing and I guarantee you'd run into "fragmentation"
issues of trying to support Sense vs Blur vs TouchWiz vs Stock. A
custom rom, rather than an app, definitely could do this, but again
this list is not the place to discuss that (There's a firmware
building/modifying list for that kind of thing).

> 1. how do i make an application launch when the screen is activated?

ACTION_SCREEN_OFF and ACTION_SCREEN_ON broadcasts. You'll need a
service running to receive them (not a manifest receiver). Also note
that no app can start within 5 seconds of the Home button being
pressed, so Home, screen off, screen on, and you're delayed.


> 2. what method does one call to dismiss an application? (for example,

Your own activity you mean? finish() or moveTaskToBack().

Along with being .EXE files, executables are entirely different from
.apk files.  While .exe's include actual binary code in a specifically
structured binary format (along with file header, etc...), .apk are a
zip file, with resource defs, a manifest, and a dalvik bytecode file,
and even this code isn't executable, it has to be interpreted / (jit)
compiled by the vm..

And on top of that an .exe almost certainly includes dynamic
references to libraries not included on Android..

So basically, going from .exe to .apk is impossible.

Re: [android-developers] Re: SDK Manager update fails every time

Yes, it's true, the SDK Manager itself is what prevents the rename /

I just updated the issue on b.android.com with some screenshots from
SysInternals Process Explorer that show exactly that:

A fix for this is trivial, but the bug is still there more than two

[sblantipodi]

I have posted a personal workaround for the problem a lot of time ago.
It is really incredible that google didn't fixed the problem yet.

To workaround the problem do this:
- Close everything, antivirus included.
- Go rename your ./android/tools directory in something else ./android/
tools_somethingelse
- Enter the renamed directory and run the android.bat
- Install the update
- Delete the renamed directory

This will solve your problem but I really hope that google will sove

[android-developers] Re: SharedPreferences variable question

[Larry/MavrickProductions]

TreKing, you are the best! Much of my code is based on code from a
couple of different books. I totally missed that I was creating two
SharedPreferences instances, and, more important, looking at the wrong
one for the year. Your catch - asking why two instances - was enough
to find the problem.

The prefsEditor is used in two locations of other activities: first to
set the year if it has not been set originally, and then to add a year
when the event passes.

THANK YOU!

Re: [android-developers] LinkedList or ArrayList?

[James Black]

When it comes to which is better, the best option is to write using both
options, then profile it, as which is better is context-dependent.

By profiling that application the OP can find the best option for his use,
and have the numbers to back it up.

If you know how many items you are going to have in a collection, for
example, then the arraylist is obviously the better choice.  If you are
adding/removing frequently then it won't be the best choice.

I tend to use an arraylist, since I read often from my preferences, and can
split up the string that is stored there, so I know how many items to store.

[android-developers] ICS: Progress monitor graphic broken, Different Padding?

[Mariano Kamp]

Hi,

I am wondering if anybody else is seeing this and knows what it is.

I use a progress monitor that with ICS now looks like this:
[image: Screen shot 2011-12-16 at 4.22.18 PM.png]

This is the relevant code:



I ran it on the emulator after Nexus Galaxy users reported the issue. Is 
this my code that is broken or ICS? Shouldn't dp solve this? It works with 
ldpi, mdpi and hdpi with releases before ICS.

Best, Mariano

[android-developers] How to build ICS for HTC Wildfire?

[mingzhou zhuang]

Hello, I want to build ICS, however, I don't have any device listed in 
/device such as samsung tuna.

I have downloaded CM7 
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Wildfire:_Compile_CyanogenMod_(Linux) and 
built it successfully.
I ran it on my HTC Wildfire. But, I don't like CM7, it's so ugly compared 
with ICS :D

I built ICS (src from http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html) 
for samsung tuna, but i don't know how to emulator it, will anybody help me?
I really want to know how to build and run it on my own HTC Wildfire. When 
will google support my device?

Thank you all!!!

I've got several similar layouts but the warning says (emphasis mine)
"This LinearLayout or its FrameLayout parent *may* be useless."  I
found that all of the cases in my app where the warnings said that it
"is useless" were legitimate. Many of those "may be useless" cases
were situations where I used layout_gravity="center", like you. I
suppose there may be a more optimal layout, but in my case it isn't
worth the effort to find it.

[android-developers] Android custom ImageView fade animation

[Seb]

I am creating a game. Most of the computation is done in a custom View
class which contains a grid of custom Squares which extend imageview.
Here's some code to describe what's happening:

public class GameView extends View {
public Square squares[] = null;

public GameView(Context context, AttributeSet a) {
super(context, a);
setFocusable(true);

}

@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
{
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
squares = new Square[numSquares];
}

public void resetGame()
{

}

public void restartGame()
{

}

public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
int eventaction = event.getAction();
int X = (int)event.getX();
int Y = (int)event.getY();

switch (eventaction)
{
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
currentTouchIndex = checkForSquareTouch(X, Y);

if(currentTouchIndex >= 0)
{
squares[currentTouchIndex].select();
((MainActivity)this.getContext()).startSquareAnimation();

.
return true;
}

Thats the main View. Square implementation:

public class Square extends ImageView {

public Square(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int x, int y,
int squareWidth, boolean operator, int textS, Typeface f) {
super(context, attrs);
{
this.setImageResource(R.drawable.chalkbox);
this.getDrawable().setBounds(x, y, x + squareWidth, y +
squareWidth);


this.setAlpha(10);
}

protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
Paint foreground = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
foreground.setStyle(Style.FILL);
foreground.setTextSize(textSize);
foreground.setColor(Color.WHITE);
foreground.setTextScaleX(1);
foreground.setTextAlign(Paint.Align.CENTER);
foreground.setTypeface(font);

int left = this.getDrawable().getBounds().left;
int right = this.getDrawable().getBounds().right;
int top = this.getDrawable().getBounds().top;
int bottom = this.getDrawable().getBounds().bottom;

if (invalidMove) {

}

if (isOperator) {
if (text.equals("+"))
bottom += 10;

if (text.equals("/"))
bottom += 5;

if (text.equals("x") || text.equals("/"))
foreground.setTextSize(textSize - 5);
else
foreground.setTextSize(textSize);
}

this.getDrawable().draw(canvas);
canvas.drawText(text, (left + right) / 2, ((top + bottom) / 2) +
10, foreground);
}

Hope that gives you a view of the structure. I'm trying to animate the
Square, so that when a player presses on a Square, the Square
brightens and then fades again when they lift their finger off. The
problem is that the call to square[0].startAnimation() does not seem
to be working and the animation is not playing. Am I doing something
wrong?

[android-developers] how to make minor changes but not push out an update

[TW]

haven't seen this question posted, and here's the scenario (and I'm
not the technical person on the team, so go easy):

I have a published app, currently free and NOT ad-supported

going to start publishing ads, and want to try a couple of different
strategies, maybe a couple of different services, but I don't want to
have all my current users getting an update notification for the app,
if the only change is to accommodate ads where there were none
before.

is it possible to updated the versioncode and/or versionname in a
manner that would refrain from notifying or updating my existing user
base (so that only future installs would have the ad service?)

hope that makes sense. thanks.

Tim

LivingRoom, DiningRoom, Wc, Garage. The problem "stop unexpectedly"
just happens when i try to go to the DiningRoom activity.

This is my code :

1.Background

[android-developers] Deleted apk and ENTIRE app w/ metadata was removed from publisher console!

[r]

Just dealt with another extremely frustrating facet of the broken
Android Market publisher console.

I thought I would upload a placeholder apk so I could start working on
my metadata before the final release was ready -- I shouldn't have had
to since it should let you create a new app without uploading a binary
like iTunes Connect. Little did I know that when I go to delete the
placeholder and replace it with the final, the ENTIRE app gets removed
from the publisher console. WTF? Now I have to replace all my
screenshots, logos, featured images, description, changelog, and set
all my country preferences.

Fix this for crying out loud.

[android-developers] Re: SDK Manager update fails every time

[Michael Ganss]

I'm not sure but it seems the SDK Manager itself may be keeping it from 
updating, at least it's the only process I can see in Process Explorer 
that's got an open handle in that folder. I made a copy of the folder and 
double-clicked android.bat from there to make it work. It looks like the 
only thing the update is doing is replacing the old tools folder with the 
contents from the zip file that's in the temp folder, though. So you might 
just to need to remove the old tools folder and unzip the new tools 
archive. Wouldn't bet on it, though :)

[android-developers] Odd ICS Scrolling Behavior

[jathak]

I've installed an app I'm working on (built for 2.2) to both my old
phone (OG Droid with Gingerbread, rooted) and my new phone (VZW Galaxy
Nexus with ICS, rooted). I have several ListViews in the app. If I try
to scroll fast on the OG Droid, it works fine (aside from some minor
lag that happens everywhere). On my Galaxy Nexus, it scrolls fine for
a second, but then freezes. The app usually crashes after that. In
LogCat, it says that there was an out of memory error. Also, when they
are both doing the same thing, the Nexus uses twice the memory.

Has anyone experienced any similar issues?

[android-developers] question about lockscreens

[kalzenith]

>From what i have gathered, this community is quite opposed to custom
lockscreens, because what they do is remove access to safeties like
the back button and the home button by exploiting loopholes in the

The reason i ask is because i am learning to develop apps for android
for one specific reason (and i have only managed to make it through
the hello world tutorial at the moment). I wish to make an app that
acts as a lockscreen. it would disable the home button, disable the
back button, and then it would dismiss itself upon a successful entry
of a password. If anyone is willing to help, i am coming from a
programming background of C# and i have no XML, CSS, or Java
experience.

Could someone please answer just a couple questions for me? i would
greatly appreciate it.

1. how do i make an application launch when the screen is activated?
from what ive gathered, i could somehow use the
Powermanager.isScreenOn() method, but i do not know how to set up a
listener. Additionally, it sounds as though the isScreenOn() method is
a huge battery drain.

2. what method does one call to dismiss an application? (for example,
when a password is entered successfully)

Re: [android-developers] Camera Problem！

[James Black]

I expect some devices will allow this, but your best bet is to follow the
suggestion here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8410876/is-there-any-api-to-fetch-both-rear-and-front-camera-view-at-the-same-time


Basically have two surface holders and two camera instances, but design in
case it doesn't work on some devices, as I expect a minority will allow
this.

Only if you write your own "gmail" or "webbrowser" app.

Because you did not write "gmail" or "webbrowser". You are attempting
to hack into third-party applications.

[android-developers] Self-signed certificates and android

[Amra]

Hi everyone,

I have decided to use the Funambol android client to sync my contacts
with my private server. The client application connects nicely to my
server over HTTP, but I would like it to use HTTPS. This is supposed
to work flawlessly on sites with trusted certificates, but I do
unfortunately only have a self-signed certificate (which results in a
javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException). My plan is therefore to add
support for self-signed certificates to this application. As far as I
understand there are four ways to do this:

1: Do not verify certificates at all. This is the easiest fix that
solves my problem, but is considered horrible from a security
perspective. I would like to avoid this solution.

2: Create a Bouncy Castle keystore and add my certificate to the
client upon compile time. Does wonders for me, but is bad for others
in my situation (not everyone want to compile all their android
applications)

3: Make the funambol client use the certificates that a user has
imported through the Settings->Security->Install_from_memory_card menu
in android. Sounds like a good solution, but seems to be impossible to
do for some reason. Never found a single comment on google on how to
do this. (I did try to import my self-signed certificate, but I still
get the SSLPeerUnverifiedException)

4: Make the funambol client warn about self-signed certificates - for
then to remember the accepted certificates for later (the typical
behavior of an email application). Probably the best way to do it. I
have not found any pointers on how to do this on google though, but I
guess I could bend my brain around the K-9mail source code and see if
I understand what they have done.

Anyway, can anyone tell me what is the "right" way to fix this issue
so that users of an android applications can use both self-signed and
globally trusted certificates - and that without sacrificing security
completely?

[android-developers] Question about android ICS touchscreen framework change.

[jesse]

Hi all,
Back in android2.3 there is such code in InputReader.cpp:
MultiTouchInputMapper::sync():
   if (inPointer.absMTPressure <= 0) {
   // Some devices send sync packets with X / Y but with
a 0 pressure to indicate
   // a pointer going up.  Drop this finger.
   continue;
   }
and
   if (inPointer.absMTTouchMajor <= 0) {
   // Some devices send sync packets with X / Y but with
a 0 touch major to indicate
   // a pointer going up.  Drop this finger.
   continue;
   }
so that means when you move your finger away from the screen,driver
send up a ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR with absMTTouchMajor==0, this point is
dropped,through
MultiTouchInputMapper::sync()>TouchInputMapper::syncTouch>calculatePointerIds():
currentPointerCount == 0 and mCurrentTouch.idBits.clear();
then in dispatchTouches() currentIdBits <> lastIdBits and interpreted
as a UP movement.

BUT Android4.0 seems don't consider this ,in InputReader.cpp:
when driver send up ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR:
MultiTouchMotionAccumulator::process();
   case ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR:
   slot->mInUse = true;
   slot->mAbsMTTouchMajor = rawEvent->value;
   break;
mInUse is set to true no matter if rawEvent->value equals 0,and this
point is not dropped,in
MultiTouchInputMapper::syncTouch():
   if (!inSlot->isInUse()) {
   continue;
   }
and mCurrentRawPointerData.markIdBit(id, isHovering); called.

Then in dispatchTouches(),because currentIdBits == lastIdBits,this
action is interpreted as a MOVE action,not UP!

Where am I wrong? Plz help,thanks in advance!

[android-developers] Changing contact's photo

[L[s]D]

Hi,
I'm trying to change chosen contact's photo and I ran into some
trouble..
I used the code from this post: 
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/7798b51e01c61c1e?

and this is my entire code:

public class ContactFacesActivity extends ListActivity {

ArrayList Contacts;
ContentResolver cr;

/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

Contacts = new ArrayList();



cr = getContentResolver();
Cursor cur = cr.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
null, null, null, null);
if (cur.getCount() > 0) {
while (cur.moveToNext()) {
String id =
cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String name =
cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
if
(Integer.parseInt(cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER)))
> 0) {
Contacts.add(new Contact(name, id));
}
}

setListAdapter(new
ArrayAdapter(ContactFacesActivity.this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, Contacts));

}
}


@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long
id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);

Bitmap temp =
((BitmapDrawable)getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.house)).getBitmap();

ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
temp.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG, 90 , bos);
byte[] bitmapdata = bos.toByteArray();


setPhoto(Uri.withAppendedPath( ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
Contacts.get(position).getID()), bitmapdata);
}

public void setPhoto(Uri personUri, byte[] photo) {
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
int photoRow = -1;
String where = ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID 
+ " == " +
ContentUris.parseId(personUri) + " AND " + 
Data.MIMETYPE + "=='" +

ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'";
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query
(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, null, where, null, 
null);
int idIdx = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow
(ContactsContract.Data._ID);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()){
photoRow = cursor.getInt(idIdx);
}
cursor.close();
values.put(ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID,
ContentUris.parseId(personUri));
values.put(ContactsContract.Data.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY, 
1);

values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.PHOTO,
photo);
values.put(ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE,

ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
if(photoRow >= 0){
getContentResolver().update
(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, values,
ContactsContract.Data._ID
+ " = " + photoRow, null);
} else {
getContentResolver().insert
(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, values);
}
}

}


But it doesn't seem to work... Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks :)

[android-developers] Got infected by SMSTrojan in my development tools (Eclipse/Windows XP)...

[solution9420]

Dears,
I posted previously but not sure if it got thru.

All I am saying it that, my virus scanner (on my PC/Windows XP) detects an
Android SMSTrojan WHEN I BUILD MY ANDROID EXECUTABLE. (reporting that
class.dex got infected).

My points are...
1.0  I feel that it is quite unusual that virus is infecting at development
level. And maybe we all look at the wrong place to find this Trojan. (Fell
like warning you all)
2.0 Is it infecting at the Android SDK repository level, or just my PC (I
think it is the later).
3.0 Has anyone experienced this case before.

I will refresh my PC and reload all SDK to ensure the virus are gone.

Best Regards,
Solution 9420

[android-developers] Progress monitor graphic broken with ICS

[Mariano Kamp]

Hi,

I am wondering if anybody else is seeing this and knows what it is.

I use a progress monitor that with ICS now looks like this:
[image: Screen shot 2011-12-16 at 4.22.18 PM.png]

This is the relevant code:



I ran it on the emulator after Nexus Galaxy users reported the issue. Is
this my code that is broken or ICS? Shouldn't dp solve this? It works with
ldpi, mdpi and hdpi with releases before ICS.

Best, Mariano

Use adb logcat, DDMS, or the DDMS perspective in Eclipse to examine
LogCat and look at the stack trace associated with your error. It is
difficult to provide more specific advice without knowing exactly what
is crashing and why.
