[android-developers] Will there be memory leak ?

2012-01-12 Thread sl.laptop@maxis 


A byte array is initially allocated:

  byte[] bb;
  bb = new byte[36];

Later condition arises that I need a byte array of 128. And thus:

  bb = new byte[128];

This condition will arise every now and then (with different size  
requirements). Since there is no mechanism to release the previous memory  
block, will there be memory leak ?


Thanks.

How different is this from a new major version of Windows coming out?  It
seems like at least a year until they start to get significant traction.
 Windows does have an advantage in that user can buy a copy of the newer OS
and install it if some app they want needs it...  but as an app developer,
requiring a newer version of the OS than the user has is probably not
likely to get most of those potential users to buy and install an upgrade
to their entire OS.

You are significantly exaggerating about 600 different devices...  if you
are going to say that, you could just as well say there are hundreds if not
thousands of different PCs running windows...  not to mention all those
different graphics cards and drivers and what-not...  crazy!

Yes it is true that there is some more variation between devices because of
the ability of manufacturers to do customizations...  but for the most part
this doesn't impact apps (see below), and for those situation when it does
you are looking at 3 or 4 major manufacturers with their own
customizations, not 600.

Really?

http://source.android.com/compatibility/index.html

Standards:

http://static.googleusercontent.com/external_content/untrusted_dlcp/source.android.com/en/us/compatibility/4.0/android-4.0-cdd.pdf

Conformance tests:

http://source.android.com/compatibility/cts-intro.html

If there are chronic differences, please file bugs with us to have these
covered in the CTS tests.  Pretty much any time a compatibility issue is
found that isn't caught by CTS, a test for it is added.  Now that Gerrit is
back, you can even go and write and contribute your own tests right to CTS
to make sure none of the manufacturers can again cause whatever problem you
are having.

I think there is plenty of evidence that this is not true.  Of course you
can always wiggle around what "unambitious" means, but I suspect you will
quickly get to the point of it meaning "not doing things that go against
the way one should approach writing an Android app".

This is fine, but it only works for someone who is tightly controlling the
entire hardware and software stack and the variety of types of hardware
that people can buy.  Personally I think ultimately that approach is a
niche -- I don't see one company being able to be produce the majority of
all of the phones (not to mention tablets and whatever else) that the
entire world is using.

[android-developers] Is this android app possible?

2012-01-12 Thread Yar Lag 
My employer asked me to write an Android app for a demo device in our
store front. He wants the app to do the following (essentially a video
demo app):

The app will show a video after it has been idle for a while.
When a user touches the demo video, it stops and goes to home screen.
Prevents a user from uninstalling this app.
Hide the app from the applications list on the home screen.
At each midnight resets the device to a default configuration (home
screens, browser history and contacts information)

Are these 5 things possible?

[android-developers] Working With Offline Database Problem

2012-01-12 Thread Bhaumik Thaker 
Hi all,

  I want to create a sqlite database by importing data from some
data files, like csv etc., and then put this database into one of my
android application and then deploy into the Android device.

 By now the samples and tutorial what I found are all taliking
about creating the sqlite database at runtime when running the android
application on the device.  Is there anyway I can create it offline
and then attach it to my application later?

Any tools and docs for this?
 Thank you very much!

[android-developers] YUV to h263/h264 compression on android to stream video

2012-01-12 Thread muhammad.ume...@hotmail.com 
hi,

I am trying stream video from android to network and receiving it on a
server that I had written in java.

I am capturing YUV data on onPreviewFrame method on Camera convert
with yuv in jpeg and sending it to the server where I convert this
data to image and displaying it.

Everything works fine but the problem is that there is a lot much
delay and size of images in the streaming process as I am sending the
data directly. Is there some way of encoding this YUV data to h263 or
h264 format so that I can minimize the delay and the size of images?

Also MediaRecorder have ability to record the video in the available
standard video format but it stores the video to a file on sdcard. Is
there any way of getting a stream from that video which is being
recorded so that I can stream it to the network? This will reduce my
efforts in conversion process.


here is my code for conversion.

public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {


Camera.Parameters parameters = camera.getParameters();
int format = parameters.getPreviewFormat();

 //YUV formats require more conversion
if (format == ImageFormat.NV21 /*|| format ==
ImageFormat.YUY2 || format == ImageFormat.NV16*/)
{
int w = parameters.getPreviewSize().width;
int h = parameters.getPreviewSize().height;
// Get the YuV image
YuvImage yuv_image = new YuvImage(data, format, w, h,
null);
// Convert YuV to Jpeg
Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, w, h);
ByteArrayOutputStream output_stream = new
ByteArrayOutputStream();
yuv_image.compressToJpeg(rect, 100, output_stream);
byte[] byt=output_stream.toByteArray();

and send these bytes to network. how to reduce the size of images in
KB and also delay?

Thanks

I don't think there is. If there is - I'm guessing you're trying to
"protect" something - please keep in mind that the user can also grab
screenshots through USB-debugging or through HDMI.

[android-developers] Re: Android fragmentation study

2012-01-12 Thread Stephan Wiesner 
I agree and actually profit from it. As a private developer I hate
that I have to write Bugfixes for single devices/Android versions
(just thinking of the Galaxy SI lagfix thing gets me goosebumbs) but
in my professional life I am a software tester and we actually earn
our money by offering our clients to have us test their apps on
different devices/Android versions.
As Dianne mentioned there are actually not _that_ many differences/
bugs, but they are real and they can get very expensive (again think
lagfix).

[android-developers] Apps Frozen After Install

2012-01-12 Thread Pent 
I have a few apks on Market that are purely content holders for icons.
These apks usually respond to a broadcast receiver query with details
of what icons they contain etc.

On ICS, they don't respond after install so they're essentially
invisible to the host app that wants to use the icons.

I remember reading a while ago that apps are now in some kind of
'frozen' state until the user starts them up (or similar). Can anyone
point me to the documentation for this frozen state ?

Thanks,

Pent

Re: [android-developers] Apps Frozen After Install

2012-01-12 Thread Kostya Vasilyev 

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-3.1.html

Under "Launch controls on stopped applications":

>>>
Applications are in a stopped state when they are first installed but 
are not yet launched and when they are manually stopped by the user (in 
Manage Applications).

<<<

And yes, it's a real pain to deal with.

I have a free base app and an unlocker app, and had to structure it so 
that the user actually runs the unlocker app.


As a consequence, the unlocker app has to have a button to "hide its 
icon" where it calls PackageManager.setApplicationEnabledSetting for its 
launcher/main activity (apparently it's a real tragedy for some users to 
have an icon in the apps list that says "... Pro Key").


This works on most devices, but on the Samsung S5830 -- and I suspect 
most/all Samsung devices with TouchWiz -- it only takes effect after a 
reboot, and users think it's my code that's broken.


I really hate it how new Android versions break stuff that used to work 
before, and the painful fallout from those changes.

Amen. My app covers an unusually large % of the API so a few things
always break with new Android versions.

[android-developers] SMS and Application Integration!

2012-01-12 Thread Prathamesh 
Hi all,

I want to read received SMS in my application without closing or
minimizing or switching application.

Is there any provision in android for such functionality ?

How to integrate Application and SMS ?



Assumption:

SMS is intended for that application. SMS has some meta-data related
to appplication using which application identifies that SMS.


Any Ideas/ suggestions


Thanks

You would need to convert those dates into Unix time values

[android-developers] All the google accounts of all the phones waiting for C2DM push notifications must be registered on C2DM?

2012-01-12 Thread saex 
i'm checking this link: 
http://www.vogella.de/articles/AndroidCloudToDeviceMessaging/article.html

It says that in order tu ouse C2DM, you need to ask for access,
because it is a beta software. Here is the link to the signup form:
http://code.google.com/android/c2dm/signup.html

OK, but wich account must ask for acces? the googleacount used in
the server side? or all the millions of googleaccounts used on the
millions of android phones that will receive notifications from the
server?

thanks

This is not something you call. This is something the OS uses to determine

 I am trying stream video from android to network and receiving it
on a server that I had written in java.
I am capturing YUV data on onPreviewFrame method on Camera convert
with yuv in jpeg and sending it to the server where I convert this
data to image and displaying it.

verything works fine but the size of the image is too large in KB to
send on network that are 20-30 kb, I want to reduce the size(KB)
approximately 2-3 kb. please tell me how can i reduce the size? Is it
possible?

Hi,

If you want to have 2-3KB image size it has to be very small by dimension and 
compressed using very low quality. You can try different values on 
Bitmap.compress(..) but I doubt you will ever achieve good enough quality with 
such a small filesize requirement.

2012-01-12 Thread Kostya Vasilyev 
When creating a notification, you're supposed to supply a
PendingIntent. When the user click on the notification, this
PendingIntent is "fired" by the system.

What the PendingIntent resolves to is entirely up to you - it can be
any of your activities, not necessarily the main/launcher one.

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/notifications.html

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/PendingIntent.html

For Android 3.0 and higher, consider using getActivities() / note the
plural / to take the user inside your activity stack.

RE: [android-developers] How to compress images in onPreviewframe??

2012-01-12 Thread Muhammad UMER 

hi,
Thanks for your reply, please can you send me a sample code of 
Bitmap.compress(..) that can help me. where here is my code to compress it to 
jpeg


public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {  


Camera.Parameters parameters = camera.getParameters();
int format = parameters.getPreviewFormat();

 //YUV formats require more conversion
if (format == ImageFormat.NV21 /*|| format == ImageFormat.YUY2 || 
format == ImageFormat.NV16*/)
{
int w = parameters.getPreviewSize().width;
int h = parameters.getPreviewSize().height;
// Get the YuV image
YuvImage yuv_image = new YuvImage(data, format, w, h, null);
// Convert YuV to Jpeg
Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, w, h);
ByteArrayOutputStream output_stream = new 
ByteArrayOutputStream();
yuv_image.compressToJpeg(rect, 100, output_stream);
byte[] byt=output_stream.toByteArray();

it gives me 768x428 size of images. i want the QVGA size that is quarter the 
size of normal VGA image, and it doesn't metter how the quality is. Please tell 
me Bitmap.compress(..) is a something 
different technique ? or suggest me another best technique for implementation. 
and on server side i want to create a video with these images.


Thanks

Since you're using YuvImage.compressToJpeg, you don't need to use Bitmap at 
all. Just change current compression quality 100 to 0, and most importantly, 
you have to drop image size much lower than QVGA. There really isn't much you 
can do within 2-3KB range.

[android-developers] Re: A BroadcastReceiver can start my own app? (with my app not started)

2012-01-12 Thread Streets Of Boston 
Yes.

In brief, your application should contain 

(1) a broadcast-receiver getting C2DM messages (
http://code.google.com/android/c2dm/)
which will post a Notification with a PendingIntent. 

(2) An activity whose intent-filter matches the Intent inside the 
PendingIntent.

When the user selects the Notification from the status-bar, its 
PendingIntent's Intent is fired. Any Activity (e.g. your activity) that 
matches this Intent is started.

 and explained how to go from a notification displayed by some
piece of your code to a particular activity within your app, and not
the main/launcher activity.

Let's try and get the terminology straight(-er):

Executing code in a broadcast receiver, or any code in any application
is only possible in a started application, by definition - code can't
execute surrounded by nothingness, there has to be a process to run
it.

This does not necessarily mean starting the main/launcher activity: a
broadcast receiver or a service have no UI of their own, a
PendingIntent used in a Notification can resolve to something else,
etc.

For a manifest-registered broadcast receiver, Android will do this
(create the process and load the code if necessary) for you, and then
execute the receiver's onReceive.

I want to build system applications such as "Settings", "Phone" and etc in

have used android libraries that not found in my android.jar, for example
"android.os.SystemProperties" in "Settings" app and many others libraries.
I uses android 2.2 platform and API level 8. My question is, *where can I
found these libraries? Are there libraries in android repository?*

[android-developers] android:windowIsTranslucent - Android bug ?!

2012-01-12 Thread Mark Cz 
Hi All,

I have an activity with a custom style which has the following
property
true


The activity doesn't restart when there is an orientation change
(There is no call to onDestroy, onConfigurationChanged), it seems like
that this property suppresses any orientation changes.

Why ?

[android-developers] binding to service within a service question

2012-01-12 Thread Wall-E 
I have a service(A) that binds to service(B).  Service A calls the
bind method in the onHandleIntent and because the bind method is
asynchronous before the onServiceConnected method is started the
onDestroy for service A is called.  Now the methods I need to call
from service B depend on the intent passed into service A.  So what I
did was store the intent as a member variable in service A.  What
confuses me is that in the onServiceConnected, I still have access to
the intent object.  Another thing that confuses me is that in the
onDestroy I also call the unbind method.  So if I'm no longer bound to
service B, how am I able to call service B methods?  Is it because the
unbind method is also asynchronous and is waiting until something is
finished?

Currently the services are doing exactly what I want them to do, which
is service A starts and binds to service B and call methods in service
B using the intent variable from service A.  What concerns me is if
there are any memory leaks with the way I have this set up?

2012-01-12 Thread Boozel 
Hi

I have an application the consists of a main activity and a linear layout 
that is the the content view for the main activity. I also then have a pop 
down widow (like the one used in Contacts). When a button is pressed in the 
pop down window i need to call a method in the linear layouts class to 
update the layout but i cannot get this to work.
How can i make the view linear layout used in my main activity available in 
my pop down window.

Sorry for not providing source but my app is quite large and i dont wont to 
paste all the code here.

Thanks in advance,

No, you don't have to.

Quoting myself: :)

I also recommend reading this:

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html

In particular, it says:

>>>
Although broadcast receivers don't display a user interface, they may
create a status bar notification to alert the user when a broadcast
event occurs.
<<<

Sounds like exactly what you intend to do.

... and reading this:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver.html

You can either dynamically register an instance of this class with
Context.registerReceiver() or statically publish an implementation

[android-developers] supports-screens smallScreens versus normalScreens

2012-01-12 Thread mcterry 
Hello All,

I would like to exclude smallScreens for an application that I'm
working on.  I understand how to do that - supports-screen tag should
set smallScreens to false.

My question is related to how that impacts the normalScreens devices.

For example, if I exclude smallScreens, what does that _actually_
mean?

According to Table 3 for the ScreensSupport Dev Guide, there is a
resolution for 480x640 that is considered a "small screen".
Here is the link...
http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html#testing

I had the understanding that all QVGA class phones were considered
"small".  However, Table 3 seems to indicate that there is some
overlap between resolutions of small and normal screens.

If I exclude small screens, does that have a negative impact of
excluding some of the normal screens?  Or potentially not excluding
all of the small screens?  Or what?

Thanks in advance!

Other information...
I am targeting API 8, for many reasons, so some of the newer filters
will not work for me, I believe.

I'll send you pseudo-code

1) Look it up in the Developers Guide.
2) Read the appropriate sections until you understand how to do this.
3) Write your own fscking code === OR === pay someone to do it for you.

> hmm gzip it before sending assuming you can unzip it on the other end

...from which you MIGHT get 1% compression, if you're lucky.  You most
definitely will not get the level of compression (reducing the image
size down to 2--3 kbits, or a few hundred bytes).  Image data is not
exactly easily compressed by the compression methods used in ordinary
file compression programs.

To reduce your image size, you have a combination of two choices:

1) If you're using an uncompressed format, such as TIFF or PNG, try
   ising JPEG to get at least SOME compression (maybe 20--30 kB down to 
   15--25 kB, depending on the quality settings you choose...you can
   go a lot smaller relative to your original image size, but at the
   cost of potentially a LOT of image quality).

2) reduce the size and/or ppi for the image.  HOWEVER, if you reduce
   the image file to the size you mentioned, specifically, 2--3 kbits
   (which is roughly 250--375 B), your image is going to be of such
   insanely-low quality it probably won't be worth sending it.

3) suck it up and transfer your image files over your 20 to 30 kbit/sec
   network, and depending on the actual file sizes, maybe go out to
   dinner, go see a movie, or do the file transfers overnight while
   you sleep

Good luck.

Except he wanted it even lower...not 2--3 kB ... 2--3 kb (which is
a only few hundred bytes).  That is going to be VERY hard to do and
still maintain ANY image quality at all, unless the image is a
thumbnail.

Right, in practice what usually happens is that it would be rare for
the user to uninstall this app, right?  I think that in general the
way around this is to simply hope for the best and reinstall if it
ever happens..

(Or the other answer: it's possible so you're going to have to just
deal with it?)

Right, unless you modify the firmware and include this as a default app..

Getting those values and saving them in variables appears fairly
straightforward on the surface.

You should break down what posts you found, why they're incomplete, what
you don't understand, what you've tried, and where specifically you need
help.

Write the code to do that or use a library. This has nothing to do with
Android specifically.

Sorry if its a stupid question but all my java is self taught so there may 
be some gaps in my knowledge.

When i use a refernce to that view that reference is not in the scope of my 
pop down only in the main activity. Do i need to pass the reference as an

Show some code. As little as necessary to show what you're doing.

Please point to the documentation that describes this, otherwise I'm going
