Re: [android-developers] Re: about Async Task

2011-08-18 Thread Andrew Pittman
Yes, usually AsyncTask is only able to be run once. Restarting the same task
may give you a little trouble though due to this. If you have something that
needs to run over and over again I would suggest that you look into starting
a service and loop the task you need to keep running in its own thread and
just make it sleep for the needed amount of time. As long as you have the
activity running in its own thread in a service you can loop it and make it
repeat infinitely as long as you allow the service to run.

Re: [android-developers] Hey need a help

2011-08-18 Thread Andrew Pittman
To end an app without the use of the back button you could try to go into
your app drawer and select settings->applications->manage applications and
from there you can chose to see what apps are running and then select them
and make them force close or even uninstall.

Are you trying to pause a media player that you have created, or are you
trying to pause any media player that may be running or started by another
application?

Re: [android-developers] App working on 2 phones and emulator but not on other phones

2011-08-17 Thread Andrew Pittman
I have no logcat for the devices that it does not work on. Program works on
the emulator so the logcat does not show anything. I do not have the app on
the market yet so I am not getting any debugging data from the Optimus V or
the Galaxy S. Would the logcat from the emulator tell whats going on? It
never force closes in the emulator but it does give me one warning when the
mp3 clip is played. The warning is about write being blocked for a few
milliseconds but the mp3 clip is being played in a service in a separate
thread. The biggest question I have is why would an app work fine on 2
phones and the emulator and not on 2 other phones.
