[android-developers] How to receive/catch SIP MESSAGE
I am using SipDemo as a SIP softphone that's able to receive or make calls to another SIP client. I have a requirement that the SIP softphone is enabled to receive SIP message from a server. From the debug console ( LogCat ) I see the SIP MESSAGE been sent to the client, but my softphone is not set to catch the message and not able to respond. I have set a break point in IncomingCallReceiver ( which extends BroadcastReceiver class ), but it did not get hit. I would appreciate any help on how to catch this SIP message sent from the server.

[android-developers] Re: How can we control the background data for Individual Apps ?
The background data setting might change for all apps with a quota or for a single app that is using more than the user would like. The background data setting that was once a simple boolean is now a complicated data structure. Does the OS gives some kind of notification or does the app just stop? It looks like the system will continue to send the ACTION_BACKGROUND_DATA_SETTING_CHANGED broadcast. With the new user interface, the setting change may or may not apply to your app. Maybe there are extras in the broadcast that can read the setting and store it in a db or preference. If there are extras, and I doubt there are extras, the app could use the intent to work out whether or not that change is being made on your app or all apps or a different app. Without extras, the app should just use the network info methods when it starts/resumes and every time the setting changes. The thing to do would be to listen for the broadcast and tear down an active connection if the network info object returned by the network info methods does not allow the app to continue to connect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Live Wallpaper configuration
Quick question for Android developers out in the world. Is it possible to lock the display of a live wallpaper to be portrait? Instead of duplicating my layouts and graphics for a wide screen, I want to be lazy and lock the thing. I know how to do this for an activity. It would be nice if the live wallpaper display were as configurable as that...

[android-developers] Re: ImageView setColorFilter, what to do for a bitmap?
Thanks Greg, I saw that. There is no ImageView. It's straight canvas and bitmaps, no Drawables, no Views. I may change that... The pixels to change could be one of several bitmaps in an ImageView. I don't know if the ImageView ColorFilter call will work in this case. The bitmap I want to change is on top of another bitmap (background) that I do not want to fliter.

[android-developers] Re: Dynamic TableLayout problem
David,
The output shows you have a null pointer at line 93 of your activity.
Look there for a solution.
Also, I noticed you have System.out.println. Where are you expecting
the println output to appear? You might want to replace that with
Android.util.log.

[android-developers] Re: Invalidate and a card flip
Since you have exactly two images, face down and face up, you might try out an ImageSwitcher object. Toggle the image with show next and skip the validation business. On Jan 13, 7:00 am, Gregg Reno gregg.r...@gmail.com wrote: I am working on a card game, and using a custom ImageView for the cards. I have an OnClickListener that handles the presses on the cards. What I want to happen is in some cases is: - User presses a face down card - Card displays face up - Wait 1 second - Card displays face down Within the OnClickListener , I draw the face up card, call invalidate, use Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000), draw the card face down, and call invalidate again. What happens is you never see the card face up - just face down. From what I understand from prior threads, this is expected behavior as invalidate won't re-draw immediately, so you only wind up seeing that last thing drawn. The view is probably being re-drawn after exiting the OnClickListener. So, any suggestions for accomplishing this using a different method?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Create Nexus One live wallpaper
The program has more than one theme possible. The theme is set based on a preference, *before* the content view is set. Does that make a difference? I can make the same wallpaper theme a parent for my other (gradient drawable) themes. Currently, the other choices inherit from Theme. In this way the code will change only the background and not the theme. In other words, when an Activity in the app displays, if the users choose to set the system wallpaper the theme will be set by the Manifest and only the background is set programmatically in the Activity. However, if the user chooses something else, the other theme will have the wallpaper theme as a parent and setTheme will be called with a resource definition from xml in the values folder. Is this a problem? Do I need to rewrite my code to set the background each time and get the Theme only from the manifest?

[android-developers] Active Activity?
Hi all, Is there a way to find out what is on the screen at any given point in time? In a broadcast receiver, I would like to determine if a specific activity is onscreen. Is it possible? In that activity I have a button that is assigned two different functions and is labeled with text to match that function, based on current state... Because of some code in the receiver (a preference change) the button action in that activity would change and would not do what it says. The receiver displays a notification, but I would like to do a little bit more to help my user in this context. If the receiver executes when one of my Activities is running I want to show a toast to alert the user in addition to displaying the standard notification on the top left. Maybe I could update the Activity screen with the notification to reflect the proper state. Can I do any of that? Is there a way for my receiver to determine if a specific Activity within my application is running? I don't think it is possible to get that information, but I wanted to ask you all. This is a corner case and my users really should notice the notification. If not, the Activity has clear visual feedback to the button press that shows the user what the button did (since it did not do what was expected). The ActivityManager and WindowManager do not seem to offer this level of detail. Please share any insights you might have.

[android-developers] Re: ServiceConnectionLeaked warning
Yep, based on your description it sounds like Activity 1 is already running and bound to the Service when you call it from Activity 2. There's your leak. See if you can put a test in Activity 1 before you bind to the service. If it is already running the service and bound, don't do it again. You might set a boolean flag in the Activity or Service when you start and bind to it then check for that before you call it and start again. That's my educated guess. Good luck.

Try doing some logging after you bind and before you unbind to the service, to see if you have unbound where needed (i.e. Activity.onDestroy). I guess, in your case, when you restart the activity 1, without previous unbind, the service connection is leaked. Do you call unbind in onDestroy method in your activities?

There are 3 activities and a remote service, all the activities use the same remote service. The main window, activity 1, starts up, auto-starts the service and binds to it. The user then starts activity 2 to do something. The user now wants activity 3, so the code in activity 2 puts some data in an intent and starts activity 1 via startActivity (). When activity 1 is started, it reads the data in the intent and starts activity 3. This all works as expected except that while activity 3 is starting I get theServiceConnectionLeakedwarning. This is odd because the code that unbinds from the service has never been called and the service connection continues to operate just fine. If the user backs out of the main window the service is unbound and everything shuts down correctly. Because the UI design doesn't want activity 2 to stack on top of 3, or 3 on top of 2 I use a FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP flag when starting activity 1. (I tested with this flag removed and the leakwarning goes away but I wind up with extra activities/windows in the stack). To make it even a bit weirder, if I run through the same scenario again, e.g. close activity 3 to get back to activity 1, open 2, switch to 3 there is no leakage the second and successive times, only the first time (near as I can tell). any hints, thoughts? tia, mike I could pare it all down to an example if that is required/helpful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Set the adapter once, when you create the list. Requery the list's

[android-developers] FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT or FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
hello friends... My app sets a repeating alarm and based on user interaction, it might need to change the time set for the broadcast with AlarmManager. It will repeat on the same interval. There is not much in the way of extras. Is the update or cancel flag better in this case?

[android-developers] Re: Contacts-based app force-closing on Droid, unable to repro
Hey Eric,
When I was working on a Droid I found that fields were null
unexpectedly when I queried for a specific MIMETYPE. The display name
for a contact is not null with a GroupMembership MIMETYPE query but
there is no data in the phone number fields. My guess is that the
Phone.Number MIMETYPE might not have a display name column. Like me,
you may need two queries. One with a MIMETYPE that has display name
and another to fetch the numbers where selection is based on the
contact_id or raw_contact id collected in the first query.
Here is a question for you... How do you put contact data into the
Emulator? Unfortunately for me, although contacts can be loaded, the
Emulator data cannot be grouped. This means I am not able to use the
Emulator at all to test my code since I query for the
GroupMembership.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE. If you or anyone has a suggestion,
great, my access to the Droid is limited and I really want to put out
a new feature on Alarmoid.
Boas Festas!

I'm having problems with my application on Droid phones. I am unable
to reproduce the problems in the emulator. A co-worker of mine with a
Droid also has no issues running my app. Any help you can provide
would be much appreciated.
My application is called Dialify. It's open source; you can find the
code
here:http://code.google.com/p/dialify/source/browse/#svn/trunk/Dialify/src...
My app queries the contacts DB to display a list of contacts. The user
can select contacts to turn them into notifications that can be dialed/
texted.
Droid users reported 2 problems:
1) Contacts not appearing
2) App force-closes when they begin to scroll through the contacts
list
My app creates a cursor over the contacts DB to display contacts. I
realized problem #1 was due to using the API level 5 method of access
which only shows contacts for the master account. I fixed this, but
the force-close issue remains.
Unfortunately, I am unable to replicate a force-close in the emulator.
I thought maybe it was the number of contacts and created about 200 of
them, to no avail. It's been happening to users who use Exchange and
users who do not, so I haven't tried getting Exchange contacts into
the Emulator.
This is how my deployed app retrieves contacts
today:http://code.google.com/p/dialify/source/browse/trunk/Dialify/src/org/...
Here are some of the changes I made for API level 6 compatibility:
//Phone is android.provider.ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone
private static final String[] PROJECTION = new String[] {
ContactsContract.Data._ID, //0
Phone.DISPLAY_NAME, //1
Phone.TYPE, //2
Phone.LABEL, //3
Phone.NUMBER, //4
Phone.CONTACT_ID //5
};
private static final String SORT_PHONES_ASC =
upper( + Phone.DISPLAY_NAME + ),
+ Phone.TYPE + ,
+ upper( + Phone.LABEL + );
//Data is android.provider.ContactsContract.Data
String selection = Data.MIMETYPE + =' + Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE +
';
//here's the query itself:
return _context.getContentResolver().query(
ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI,
PROJECTION,
selection,
selectionArgs, //will be null in this case
sort.getSort() //will be SORT_PHONES_ASC, above
);
//to display the contact I turn it into an internal type (Contact)
//_contactTypes comes from resources.getStringArray
(android.R.array.phoneTypes)
public Contact getContactAtCursor(Cursor cursor) {
int typeId = cursor.getInt(2);
String type = (typeId == Phone.TYPE_CUSTOM) ? cursor.getString(3) :
_contactTypes[typeId - 1];
return new Contact(
cursor.getLong(0), //id
cursor.getLong(5), //contact ID
cursor.getString(1), //display name
cursor.getString(4), //number
type
);
}
I realize I can bring up a contact selector using an Intent, but I
don't think that will work for me. My app has a custom view of
contacts, and it always displays the contacts list.
Any guidance, suggestions, feedback or help would be most welcome. I'm
not sure how to proceed with this issue.
Regards,
Eric

[android-developers] Re: Setting for Use incoming call volume for notifications
I need to bump this thread I face the same problem. My guess is that there is nothing public and anything we might find through source and code into a program could change without notice. Truth is that the shift from SDK 1.1 to SDK 1.5 introduced this tie in and broke my UI! My solution was to pop an alert dialog that will open the settings application. To further complicate the matter, I found that the public action - the intent that is supposed to open the sound preferences page, was broken (on the Hero?). Thus, I cannot navigate to the specific page that holds this setting. I guess maybe an issue needs to be filed. So far I have not taken that step. If anybody has a better solution, please speak up!

[android-developers] Re: Using custom defaults for PreferenceScreen
One pattern for using XML preferences is to run addPreferencesFromResource once and only once, the first time your app is executed. You probably know that preferences can be saved and persist from one run of the application to the next. Use a boolean preference to determine if it is the first run of the app. In subsequent logic and based on conditions, you can set the value of the preference by fetching the shared preferences (getSharedPreferences) and creating an editor to write out the correct value. Set your defaults once, in XML or in code. After that, set the value. It will display in the PreferencesActivity as you expect it to. It sounds like you might run addPreferencesFromResource and load defaults every time. Maybe that is not the case... If your app requires loading defaults each time, just set the correct value after loading defaults, as needed. In the Preferences Activity you can use both onResume and onPreferenceClick to manage the appearance of preferences (that is what I do). You might use these functions to manage preference values as well. I hope this makes sense.

[android-developers] BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
I have a question about the background thread handling change that went into SDK 1.6. I read here that BG threads get placed in a scheduling class that can't use more than 5-10% of the CPU in order to keep the foreground responsive. Do system services get into that scheduling class? My app uses repeating alarms. It was great with 1.5, very reliable. Since the upgrade to 1.6, the phone seems to be dropping some of my repeating broadcasts, especially if I am doing something fun in the foreground like with WIFI when the Alarm is supposed to fire. I do not have any of the task killer programs that have been a hot topic lately. To be clear, the dropped alarm broadcast behavior is intermittent. I am not 100% sure if I really am doing something when it has failed. If the timer is a one shot, it seems to work better but there is no real empirical evidence here. My phone is usually in my pocket when I fire one of the one shot alarms. If my theory about system services in the background scheduling class is correct, then I probably cannot find a workaround or defensively code a solution. Will it be the same in 2.0? Have others seen issues with alarms and with the setRepeating method? I am looking for suggestions to troubleshoot this problem. How can I determine if the problem is the broadcast, if it is the repeating alarm creation, or if there is some other issue like low memory coming in to play. Any ideas?

[android-developers] Re: BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
OK, but my application is not running at the time. Does that mean it goes into the foreground thread pool even if there is no window?

[android-developers] Re: BG threads with 1.6; is the AlarmManager starving?
Sorry but I still need clarification here. This new 1.6 feature distinguishes between foreground and background and would seem to alter thread priorities based on that characteristic despite all priorities being normal. Assume that when the broadcast receiver is called, another application might have the UI Thread by running an interactive window with the Android end user. In this case, does onReceive run in the foreground or background? Dianne made clear that the System Service is not starved and the broadcast is sent. It still looks to me like the resulting broadcast receiver may not be getting the CPU. Is there any way to defensively code for this situation?

[android-developers] Re: ListView vs. ListActivity different default behavior
Does your ListView have a width set to fill_parent? On Oct 26, 5:30 pm, skyhigh skyhigh1...@gmail.com wrote: I have an application which has some activities that display a single list and extends ListActivity. The application also has other activities that have several things on the screen in addition to a list, so these activity classes use extends Activity and then include a ListView in the layout file. I have noticed that ListActivity provides different default behavior than the behavior provided by putting ListView in a layout file. When the list is presented on the screen and the user touches an item in the list the active area on the screen which responds to the touch is different for ListActivity vs ListView. For ListActivity I can touch anywhere on the row and it will respond, but for ListView I must touch an area of the row where a word is displayed. With ListView if the row is blank on the right side of the screen (because the word or phrase is short), when I touch the right side of the row nothing happens. It only responds to touches on the word itself. With ListActivity I can touch the blank area of the row and it works fine. I think that this must be the result of ListActivity changing some setting on the list which is not provided as a default by ListView. The behavior of responding to a touch anywhere on the row is much nicer than the default behavior I get when using ListView. With ListView, it is very annoying to touch the row but get no response because I didn't touch the word itself. Does anyone know why these behave differently? Does anyone know what setting I should change on ListView to get the nicer behavior that is the default with ListActivity? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: updatePeriodMillis not working for widget on 1.6
Here is a related question. Are there other reasons to say the Alarm service is unreliable? My app uses repeating alarms. It was great with 1.5, very reliable. Since the upgrade to 1.6, the phone seems to be dropping some of my repeating broadcasts. I do not have any task killer programs, or at least I did not knowingly install any. Notice that I use unique requestCodes in the creation of my PendingIntent (children.getInt(0) in the code snippet below) to insure that the correct number of distinct alarms is created and to cancel any of those alarms at a later point in time, should that become necessary. Has the use of the requestCode parameter changed with the 1.6 SDK? almMgr.setRepeating (AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(), SchedulerActivity.WEEKINMILLIS, PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ctxt, children.getInt(0), new Intent(ctxt, SoundOffTimer.class), PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT)); children.moveToNext(); The dropped broadcast behavior is intermittent. When the timer is a one shot, it seems to work correctly. I am wondering if others on the list have seen issues with the setRepeating method. I am also looking for suggestions for troubleshooting this problem. How can I determine if the problem is the broadcast, if it is the repeating alarm creation, or if there is some other issue like low memory coming in to play. Any ideas?

[android-developers] Re: Bold a row in ListView programmatically
Maybe your text settings are overwritten by the getView method of the
simple adapter. That is the method where you want to set text
characteristics. Otherwise a scroll down the list and return to item
2 will remove your bold.
Good luck!
On Oct 21, 7:41 pm, cartoontan tap.sop...@gmail.com wrote:
I have created a ListView with rows of text+icon. On certain
conditions, I want to BOLD the text on a particular row.
I first tried it out in the On-Click and it works.
myListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){
public void onItemClick(AdapterView? parent, View v, int
position,long id) {
TextView b1 = (TextView) v.findViewById
(R.id.itemText);
b1.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD);
Log.i(TAG, onItemClick ...+b1.getText());
//b1.setText(testing);
}});
However when I put the codes into a function and call it (I created a
menu item to activate it), the text does not become bold.
public void setBold() {
View v = (View) mySimpleAdapter.getView(2, null,
myListView); // get row 3
TextView tv2 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.itemText);
tv2.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD);
Log.i(TAG, setBold ...+tv2.getText());
tv2.setText(testing);
//v.invalidate();
//mySimpleAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
The Log in setBold function does show up, so I believe the codes in
setBold() are being executed. What is so different about on-Click that
refreshed the ListView but not through the function?
I am using the default ListView and a SimpleAdapter to populate the
List.
Is there something I should add to the setBold() to refresh the view
or is there other better way to change the textView to bold?

[android-developers] Market upgrade requires same certificate
Although I am using the same certificate and keystore, I am not able to upload an upgrade of my application to the Android Market. The key is the same but may not appear to be since I changed platforms from PC to Mac. It is also possible that this is my mistake rather than a bug. Although the keystore is obviously named and the password is correct, I might have created and used some other key... It has been months since I uploaded the last version of the app. Is there anything I can do to override the certificate errors I am hitting when I use the 'upload upgrade' link? The error is The apk must be signed with at least one certificate in common with the previous version. To try and get around this, I unpublished, put in the updated apk, got the same error, still no go. I unpublished and pushed out a refactored apk. No go. I finally refactored to change the package name which allows me to upload the upgrade as a new application. Of course, the old app is still in place and I can't migrate existing users to give them the upgrade. Can I solve this problem? If not, the Market is going to be a mess of many versions of the same applications. (it already is messed up this way, no? :) Of course I like the added security of encryption and certificates so that nobody can hack my app and upload malicious code under my name. Today the protection is hampering my efforts, today it is inflexible. Can I get a one time work-around for the certificate requirement so that an upgrade will be published without the same certificate? Any feedback will be appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Probing for an already set Alarm?
All you need to do is to set different request codes in your pending intent parameters to avoid this situation: The setting of this new alarm, and the throwing out of the existing alarm is what I want to avoid. A correction to one line of code would let you use the alarm manager (sorry if my earlier post was unclear). You might further improve by using a Handler, thread or Async Task to collect your second sample after a 15s sleep and then trigger a repeating alarm every ten minutes thereafter. To be clear, a phone reboot will cancel the repeating alarm but you can catch the event and restart. Good luck!

[android-developers] Re: Probing for an already set Alarm?
What does the background service do, exactly? Sorry, I don't really want to sort through the two versions of your code. What I did see in the alarm version leads me to suggest that you can set a repeating alarm in your Activity after collecting the initial data rather than set a new Alarm each time your broadcast receiver is called. If you describe what went wrong trying to use the alarm manager maybe you can drop the excess baggage of a background service. Since you are trying to measure performance, you really ought to go the extra mile to drop the extra process and be sure your app does all it should to mitigate any performance impact.

[android-developers] Re: onReceive not triggering for SEND / image
Here is the nudge you wanted...
Your intent filter needs to be set on an activity. The code you
posted shows it as a Broadcast Receiver.
Change:
receiver android:name=.ImageReceiver
to
activity android:name=.ImageReceiver
and move all your stuff from onRecieve to onCreate. That should take
you forward.
Good luck!

[android-developers] Re: Probing for an already set Alarm?
It seems like you should be tracking exactly which Alarms you have set
as a matter of course, rather than try to find out what is set after
the fact. If you use a unique id for each alarm then you need not be
concerned that you will overwrite one that is in the queue. When I say
unique id, what I mean is the requestCode parameter to the Pending
Intent.
If you change this code
PendingIntent pendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0);
so that your second parameter is unique for each alarm then you will
not overwrite an existing Alarm.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

[android-developers] Re: Hmm... at last ADC2 is out of our way ... tell about your app and experience
App Name: Alarmoid Category: Tools/Productivity Alarmoid was submitted with (last-minute) translations into Russian, French, Spanish and a bit of German. When it reaches the Android Market (possibly not until after the end user judging is complete) it will have Italian and a more complete German translation. Description: * Alarmoid uses a built-in Android System Service to shut off and automatically restart sounds on your phone. Technically, it will lower the notification volume to zero for the amount of time you set. It has is a 'quiet time' schedule and you can create a timer on the fly. The appwidget can start a new timer with two touches! * Alarmoid is designed to turn the sound off and on again without a fuss. The default settings do the job quietly, shutting off the phone ringer as well as all applications configured with a sound notification. Use Preferences to allow the phone to ring during quiet time. Preferences can also make the phone vibrate, play a sound or flash the LED when quiet time is over. You could use Alarmoid as an alarm clock or a (kitchen) timer. * After installation, Alarmoid is set up with a schedule to turn sound off automatically at 11pm and back on at 8am, 7 days a week. Touch any entry in the expandable list view under the Scheduler tab to edit or delete that entry. Rather than delete entries, you can turn off the schedule using a checkbox in the Preferences tab. Use the Menu to add additional entries to the schedule. You can have any number of Alarmoids in the schedule, organized by the days of the week.

[android-developers] Re: 5 mins to ADC II submission deadline - so what is your submission?
I posted this information on another thread. Here is a repeat of the details, for serendipity and in case you missed it. Description: * Alarmoid uses a built-in Android System Service to shut off and automatically restart sounds on your phone. Technically, it will lower the notification volume to zero for the amount of time you set. It has is a 'quiet time' schedule and you can create a timer on the fly.

[android-developers] ExpandableListView won't redraw, static group data, dynamic child data
Hello good people,
I have an expandable list view with a static array for the group data
and an SQLite database for the child data. It is implemented with the
BaseExpandableListAdapter and works great, except, when I edit the
database to delete or add children to the list I do not see the
changes onscreen. It looks like I can use the registerDataSetObserver
method to notify the adapter and expandable list of a data change.
What I have to do in the callback to make Android redraw the list
after data changes is what I need to know. Can I do it?
Documentation on this part of the SDK is a bit sparse and expandable
list view example code is not a good match. Can anyone offer advice
on how to use a DataSetObserver? It feels like I have to switch over
to a Cursor type adapter. Any insight is most welcome.
Pardon the double post to Android Beginners.
Best regards,
Beth

Hi there,
Here is the situation. In a TabbedView, one of three tabs is an
ExpandableListViewActivity. My application is using SQL Lite to store the
data bound to the ExpandableListView. When I change the SQL Lite data in
another activity, I need to refresh the ExpandableListView and show the new
data. If I am drawing the tab for the first time after adding new data, the
list shows correctly after the tab switch. If I am in the
ExpandableListViewActivity when I add new data to the list or edit existing
data, then I do not see the change. In this case, when I exit the
application and restart, I see the modified data was stored in SQL Lite as
expected. Can anyone suggest how I might get the tab to redraw the list?
The partially working code looks like this:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent
intent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
//stuff deleted
if((requestCode == EDITOR) resultCode==RESULT_OK) {
tabs.setCurrentTab(1);
tabs.getCurrentView().invalidate();
}
}
The constructor for the list adapter is where I execute the code to populate
the groups and children. Do I want to drop and create a new list adapter?
That seems like a waste of perfectly good rows. Is it something I should do
in the ExpandableListViewActivity, rather than the TabHost? The fact that
this is an expandable list is probably irrelevant; I am stuck where an
object on the screen that has changed is not redrawn automatically.
Your help is deeply appreciated.
Best regards,
Beth

[android-developers] code to mute using the MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS permission
Hi, At the end of my AndroidManifest xml file you find this tag: uses-permission android:name=android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS/uses- permission /manifest I am using Eclipse to write code to mute notifications and I get a java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial from the Emulator every time. I realize the change will affect other applications, however, it was unclear that more was needed to mute a stream. What am I missing?
