[android-developers] Official Widget Design Guidelines outdated for SDK 1.6

2009-10-11 Thread Asad Zia

Hi,

I'll like to point out that Widget Design Guidelines lists standard
cell sizes in pixels.

However, in launcher source code in Donut branch (SDK 1.6) cell sizes
are in dip. This results in different pixel values on different
density screens.

I'll suggest documentation should be updated with respect to SDK 1.6.

Regards,
Asad

[android-developers] Re: system privileges on emulator

2009-08-24 Thread Asad Zia

Thanks Dianne and Yusuf for the replies.

I am using system image shipped with Android SDK. I guess I have to
build a new system image from source code and figure out a way to sign
it with my own certificate.

There seems to be no documentation on how to interrupt Android build
system in order to inject my own certificate or to get the certificate
used by Android by default.

Any help or useful pointers are appreciated.

Thanks,
Asad

[android-developers] system privileges on emulator

2009-08-21 Thread Asad Zia

Hi,

There seems to be two levels of uses-permission, user level and system
level. When I declare to use  INTERNET or BATTERY_STATS, in my
AndroidManifest.xml file it works without problem. However when I try
to use INSTALL_PACKAGES, BIND_APPWIDGET  it does not work. According
to a [android-beginner msg11514],

“Whoever signs the system is also going to need to sign any app that
wants system privileges.”

I need to know how do I get System Privileges while debugging my
application on emulator.

Thanks,
Asad
