Is it possible to make RingtonePicker ask my app's > content provider for ringtones? For eg if I enter > content://myprovider/ringtones/1 I can't answer your specific question about the columns in the database, but I have worked around this area. I have a ringtone picker that returns URI's of type content://myprovider/ringtone/id that send apps playing a notification to my ContentProver for the sound data. This works perfectly for everything *except* the system ringtone and notification sound (i.e. I can use my picker and ContentProvider to provide the alarm sound, email sound, messaging sound, talk sound, sms sound, etc.) but when I try to use the exact same method to set the ringtone it fails (well it sets, just the ringtone player can't play that URI). It appears that the ringtone player doesn't support all URI's, but I haven't yet found documentation that supports this theory and I've been meaning to read the code. It's sad because I have to do a nasty hack to get sounds in my app to be used as ringtones by copying them to the sdcard first, which granted works but is really messy and prone to errors if users delete/format/eject/etc the sdcard. My guess is that it's on purpose to ensure that when the phone rings *some* sound comes out, just in case the ContentProvider fails in some way.

[android-developers] Creating Proxy Server
Looking for help with creating an http proxy server via Android. It's a bit difficult to ask this question with examples, etc, because networking isn't familiar to me, which means I don't quite know how to get started, so I'll try to explain: I'm attempting to play an audio stream using Android's MediaPlayer. It's a snap using setDataSource and my URL string... only some phones (those still running Android 1.5) won't play the stream. Through research I've discovered that the problem may reside with the headers associated with my stream URL, that something in them is either missing, wrong, or simply needs to be changed in order for the MediaPlayer not to reject the URL on prepare() (could be length and/or content-type). I've been told that I should attempt to solve the problem by creating an http proxy server in my app, one where I can alter the headers to however I need them, and then attach to the stream through this new proxy... but I haven't the slightest idea on how to do this. Anyone have advice? I'd greatly appreciate a point in the right direction through code, not just suggestions like "look up HttpClient in the SDK", because I've been through all of that and am getting nowhere.

[android-developers] Point Sprite support

[android-developers] Re: Point Sprite support
All right. Perhaps a silly follow-on question. If the hardware supports point sprites, but does not support non-power-of-two textures, then can I support non-power-of-two image dimensions for my point sprites? I realize I can copy an image into a portion of a larger sized power-of-two texture, but I don't believe I can blit that portion of the texture as a point sprite. Can someone please confirm?

[android-developers] Re: Possible to calculate yaw,pitch,roll from x,y,z magnetic field values alone?
I'm afraid it's not mathematically possible to generate a full attitude solution from a single vector observation (mag vector, gravity vector, etc..). There simply isn't enough information there. It doesn't matter if you're not pointed along the mag field, you will still only get a partial attitude solution in the shape of a cone centered around the mag field. This has been an issue in the aerospace industry for a while now, and usually the problem is solved by combining information from two or more sensors. In this case, the Android API is probably using the mag field and what it assumes is a gravity vector from the accelerometer (that's why the solution is affected by external accelerations). If you're interested in how to generate an attitude solution from two vector observations, you should look up the TRIAD algorithm for attitude determination.

[android-developers] Hang on resume with OpenGL
We've modified our Android 1.5r2 build to enable the Window.FEATURE_OPENGL flag in order to support a mixture of 2D and 3D effects in a single layout. In general, our activity is working fine, except for resume. We consistently crash or hang on resume. I've been focusing on narrowing down the hang problem at the moment. The code consistently never returns from a call to glDeleteTextures() in SkGLDevice_SWLayer's destructor. SkGLDevice_SWLayer is being used due to a call to Canvas's saveLayer() in our modified version of TextView. With Window.FEATURE_OPENGL enabled, skia refuses to blit text unless an offscreen has been created This seemed like a reasonable workaround given that I didn't fully comprehend the recommended fixes in SkGLDevice::drawText(). I don't expect that fixing text rendering will solve my problems, because removing the saveLayer() call still yields problems in resume. I'm guessing that OpenGL needs to be reset in some way on resume. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[android-developers] monkeyrunner
I am working on making some changes to the android framework layer and building my own version. I am working based on froyo and trying to use monkeyrunner for some testing. I have pulled the source and can build and run in the emulator but when I try to use a monkeyrunner script I can't seem to get anyhting to work. I built the code using lunch full- eng and it runs fine on the device. I am just trying to get a simple script running based on the example at http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/monkeyrunner_concepts.html shown below with a print statement added just to see if I could get anything to run. # Imports the monkeyrunner modules used by this program from com.android.monkeyrunner import MonkeyRunner, MonkeyDevice # Connects to the current device, returning a MonkeyDevice object device = MonkeyRunner.waitForConnection() print "Hello World!" When the following line is in the script I get an error as follows. from com.android.monkeyrunner import MonkeyRunner, MonkeyDevice Traceback (most recent call last): File "../../MRTesting/MyTest.py, line 4, in from com.android.monkeyrunner import MonkeyRunner, MonkeyDevice ImportError: cannot import name MonkeyDevice So if I remove MonkeyDevice from the import as shown below I get a different error on the call to waitForConnection() from com.android.monkeyrunner import MonkeyRunner Traceback (most recent call last): File "../../MRTesting/MyTest.py, line 6, in device = MonkeyRunner.waitForConnection() AttributeError: type object 'com.android.monkeyrunner.MonkeyRunner' has no attribute 'waitForConnection' I tried modifying the call to have some arguments as indicated in the documentation as follows but I still get the same error. The second argument matches the value returned by a call to adb devices. device = MonkeyRunner.waitForConnection(5, 'emulator-5554') I have done some digging around and one person said that the shebang needs to be at the beginning of the file as follows with the path modified to avoid putting information in I would rather not share. #! /home//monkeyrunner I could not see how this would be any different than me invoking monkeyrunner directly from the command line but I tried it and no luck. I did not install the sdk anywhere on my system as it is included in the build tree but it seems to me that the monkeyrunner tool might not be able to locate it as needed but I can't find any indication of how to fix this. I am running the following commands when I build my system from within my build directory at the root. . build/envsetup.sh setpaths lunch full-eng make -j16 Anyone have any thoughts on this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Itemized Overlays...Not drawing a collection but refreshing????
Isn't Itemized Overlay supposed to stack drawn objects...This is called everytime the locationchanged event triggers...So It should be drawing multiple circles..Instead i only ever see the newest one...They do not accumulate like i wanted. Sorry if a canned answer for the PS part felt in order..I just threw that in because I wasn't sure if it was a side effect or a seperate issue..If I got the first part solved I was going to tackle that next...I am a Java Noob...But I'm not lazy. I'm an apt programmer in several different languages, but this itemizedOverlay thing is kicking my but.

[android-developers] Re: Itemized Overlays...Not drawing a collection but refreshing????
Thank You that helped immensly (I THINK) 8^)...I think i understand. If you don't mind i'm going to word this another way and see if I REALLY UNDERSTAND. If i were to send a drawable object..i.e. PNG icon like all the examples the Overlay will accumulate them (add item)...However...My Draw is done on a clean Slate ontop of the overlay...Basically the overlay is cleaned out and refreshed with each item(icon) added So the draw is cleaned on each additem...So If that is correct or close to correct? Then am I to understand that itemized Overlays are just for icons, or can i move my Draw to another location in this class, Like before the populate to make the circles accumulate and just send a darn icon into additem whether I want an icon or not? IN OTHER WORDS Can i collect anything other than icons in an itemized overlay? Unfortunately I need to do this project to solve a work related problem...otherwise i'd have tackled something much different. PS everything else in Java has been a breeze except understanding some of the class @OVERRIDE stuff...Besides for it being work related...I Can't help taking on learning projects like this..Thanks for the advice and help thus far. PSS i didn't expect you to go line by line through my code..I've been in my share of forums and user groups..trust me I understand...I was half tempted to break protocol allot earlier when i saw you on allot of pages re: itemized Overlays, but couldn't do it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Itemized Overlays...Not drawing a collection but refreshing????
That was AWESOME and really helps. So it leaves me only with one last Question...How do I do a drawcircle on the Overlay instead of Sending an icon? Every example I see involves placing an image marker..I don't see any examples for drawing Do you have a snippet of how you draw into an itemizedoverlay so that it doesn't clear as my method does?

[android-developers] Re: Anyone know how to calculate speed WITHOUT GPS?
Glad this thread is still alive and silly. Seriously, take a look at the LocationManager class in the docs. There are constants for specifying GPS_PROVIDER, NETWORK_PROVIDER, or PASSIVE_PROVIDER. The accuracy will depending on the provider but the same code for determining position (and speed) will be the same via the LocationListener class and Location class. The "Unlocking Android" book from Manning Publications has an example. You may be able to download the example from the Manning site. As for the 'poor signal in a car' argument, I accidentally dropped my phone inside a small airplane and could not find it. The plane had those silver sunlight reflectors over every window after landing. I used MyLookout to find its position and the GPS was able to obtain a position when the phone was under the seat and in the cockpit with reflective shades.

[android-developers] Lists in tabs
Hey guys, I'm new to android development but I have run through various tutorials and am slowly grasping how to develop apps. I modified the Tab Layout tutorial on the android dev website to fit my needs, and now I need to add a list on to each tab I have created. there are a total of seven tabs and each will have it's on specific list. If someone could point me in the right direction to adding a list per tab that would be great. Each tab has it's own class file, would I add the list items as strings in the strings.xml then add code to each tab's class file in order to populate the tab? This was the only thing I have found so far, but it hasn't worked. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: What's new in honeycomb?
> You may have seen the numerous developer blogs posts on preparing for larger > screens and such. :) I've thought about it and come up with two ways to better allow apps to use that bigger real-estate. A) Add a new Resource size (current: hdpi, mdpi, ldpi) such as an 'xhdpi' or 'tdpi' tag for tablet screen sizes (most likely option, IMO, based on the Gingerbread changes to the status bar icons with the addition of the -v9 suffix for those directories) i) Very simple, and natural next step. B) Allow nested activities to allow developers to quickly transition their apps from smart-phone based to tablet-based. Then people could easily transition apps to Tablet form factors. i) Example: Have a listView of emails on the left that sends intents to the right half of the screen to display those emails. ii) Although it doesn't flow the regular way android applications are architectured, I think it would quickly allow developers to make their apps awesome for tablets without putting in a lot of man hours to change their apps. iii) Could be done by adding an extra piece of information to the intent, Much like a web page with multiple frames works. Those were my guesses, but based on Dianne's answer, I think it's safe to assume that A will come. All of the current blog posts encourage developers to make use of the resource architecture that's been implemented in Android. screen geometry post: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/09/screen-geometry-fun.html Example blog post on uses-features in tablets and Google TV: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/10/five-steps-to-future-hardware-happiness.html This is just my opinion, looking at the situation and such.

At first, yes. The hardware requirement may be overkill but it depends on the situation. There are Bluetooth enabled hardware and apps for monitoring engine performance in cars.

[android-developers] Multiple Overlays Want to Redraw only one or attach my own Canvas to Mapview and control when it refreshes
I have succesfully created a tiled map Overlay that grabs tiles from a server and displays them on my map after it caches them on the SD card. My program is going to have two modes tracking and not tracking...This Tile Overlay I want to refresh when the User is in tracking Mode, or in either mode when the user Zooms or pans (this is working fine!!!)... I want to create a second Overlay or utilize the pre mentioned itemized overlay to show to Other objects An Arrow at your current location and a compass in the corner. The Arrow is to show your location and Point towards your bearing when Your speed is > 1, and is to show your location and your Orientation from the sensor when you are not moving. If you are still in Tracking mode it will continually center the map around you...if you are in Non- Tracking mode it will let you wander off the map...but will still show your orientation and or if speed > 1 bearing if still in view...Basically a look around mode. My problem is that in continually refreshing the arrow it also forces all the tiles to refresh Even though they are stored on the SD card this is ridiculous...making any calls to the ItemizedOverlay or any Scroll 0,0 or AnimateTo call Automatically wipes out the canvas and requires a redraw of all my tiles, Also redrawing the Arrow and Compass from the sensor also has the same effect...which means I'm constantly redrawing tiles wether i need to or not. Is there away to apply another canvas ontop of my map view? that won't refresh unless i tell it to? Iv'e a couple ways. Code: Select all paint.setColor(0x6600); paint.setStrokeWidth(3); paint.setStyle(Style.FILL_AND_STROKE); Bitmap bitmapr = Bitmap.createBitmap(mapView.getWidth()/2, mapView.getHeight()/2, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_); Canvas GARB = new Canvas(bitmapr); GARB.drawCircle(30, 30, 30, paint); GARB.drawLine(0, 0, mapView.getWidth()/2, mapView.getHeight()/2, paint); //TRIED THESE NO LUCK findViewById(R.id.myGMap).draw(GARB); findViewById(R.id.MapLayout).draw(GARB); mapView.draw(GARB); itemizedOverlay.draw(GARB, mapView, false); Come to think of it I'd rather have control of Two canvasas ontop of the map and Just use the Overlay draw method to send information to my own classes that determine if a redraw of my canvas's are necessary. But none of the above methods work. I'm also interested in taking it to the next level when i get this figured out. http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=30997 To orient the map based on bearing(speed>1)/Orientation(speed <1)... ...and to allow user to zoom further in than the API allows.

[android-developers] Unable to install latest Android SDK on Ubuntu 10.10
Hi folks, I've been trying in vein for a few days to get the latest Android SDK to install on Ubuntu 10.10. Here's what I'm up to: 1) Grabbed and unpacked the starter package 2) Ran tools/android 3) Clicked "Available Packages" 4) Selected all under Android Repository 5) Clicked "Install selected packages" And kaboom (below). I've tried it with both OpenJDK (1.6) and Sun JDK (1.6), but no dice. I've also tried as root, although it was my understanding that that shouldn't be necessary.

[android-developers] Re: Can somebody suggest the best book or online resource for beginning android apps development?
"Beginning Android 2" by Mark Murphy is a great start to understand the fundamentals. The flow of the book so far works well. I originally started with the online articles at HTTP://developer.android.com but I prefer a physical book. "Pro Android 2" was good but contained more advanced concepts without as much foundation... which makes sense. "Android In Action" is also good but understand the fundamentals first. Android terminology is slightly different from other languages, intents versus events and views instead of controls are two examples.

[android-developers] Setting maxWeight on a TextView
Hi, I'm trying to accomplish what I thought was a pretty simple layout, but am having trouble finding my way. Basically, I just want one TextView immediately after another where the second one has a fixed width and the first one can grow as large as it needs to be but will be ellipsized so that it doesn't push the second one out of the parent container: | TextView 1 text is short here: TextView 2 text | | TextView 1 text is really, really long here... TextView 2 text | Using layout_weight causes the 2nd view to be pushed all the way to end of the container, even if it does not need to be: | TextView 1 text is short here:TextView 2 text | | TextView 1 text is really, really long here... TextView 2 text | I can use maxWidth on the 1st TextView and things work ok, but I don't know the value (parent container width-TextView 2 width) without doing some measuring at run time. It seems like I need some hybrid maxWidth/ layout_weight mechanism. Seems I am missing the obvious -- can anybody point it out? Thanks!

[android-developers] Superscripted Keys on Keyboard
I'm creating a custom keyboard and have been able to hack around sufficiently except for the following: Does anyone know how one would display superscript key labels in addition to the normal key labels on the keyboard keys? For example, on the qwerty keyboard, I would like to see "1" have a superscripted "!", "2" have a superscripted "@", etc. all of which might only be able to pressed via the alt or function key or something. HTC had it in the hero keyboard but I can't find anywhere how they did that and the soft keyboard example doesn't show that. Is there a method OTHER than creating 9-patch graphics for each independent key? (...given my design, the thought of which makes me want to blow my brains out. :> ) Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] info incorrect on http://developer.android.com WHICH COULD PREVENT ECLIPSE FROM RECOGNIZING YOUR DEVICE
On the following page there is info that is incorrect (correct but
missing an important piece)
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html#setting-up
It mentions if using Ubuntu Linux in order to run/debug ON your
Android device (not virtual device) you must go into ubuntu and add a
file. (see below I pasted from the site)
"If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a rules file
that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to
use for development. Each device manufacturer uses a different vendor
ID. The example rules files below show how to add an entry for a
single vendor ID (the HTC vendor ID). In order to support more
devices, you will need additional lines of the same format that
provide a different value for the SYSFS{idVendor} property. For other
IDs, see the table of USB Vendor IDs, below.
Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-
android.rules.
For Gusty/Hardy, edit the file to read:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
For Dapper, edit the file to read:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
Now execute:
chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
THIS IS INSUFFICIENT. IT SAYS TO NAME THE FILE 51-ANDROID.RULES BUT
THIS IS INCORRECT IF THE OTHER DEFAULT FILES IN THE UDEV FOLDER
CONTAIN A NUMBER HIGHER THAN 50
IN MY UDEV FOLDER FOR EXAMPLE THERE WERE ALREADY TWO DEFAULT FILES
WITH NAMES THAT INCLUDED A NUMBER HIGHER THAN 50 (70)
LINUX AUTO RUNS THE PROGRAM WITH HIGHEST NUMBER FIRST.
DEVELOPER.ANDROID ASSUMES THE OTHER DEFAULT FILES IN YOUR ETC/UDEV
FOLDER ARE NUMBER 50 SO IT SUGGEST USING 51 WHEN YOU CREATE THE NEW
FILE WHEN IN FACT IT SHOULD JUST BE A NUMBER HIGHER THAN THE FILE NAME
NUMBERS THAT ARE ALREADY IN YOUR UDEV FOLDER (IN MY CASE IT HAD TO BE
HIGHER THAN 70)
AS SOON AS i DID THIS I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET ECLIPSE TO RECOGNIZE
MY SAMSUNG TAB (TO USE AS AN AVD) INSTEAD OF USING A SAMSUNG AVD
EMULATOR ON MY PC

[android-developers] Re: Device Seeding Program for Top Android Market Developers
It seems no one has got anything outside of the US / Canada, so it's not a problem with just a few people, it's everyone. I'm in the UK and 2-4 weeks would be Saturday for me. If they are being sent from the US you have to expect them to take longer. If they are coming from the EU though, it shouldn't take much longer.

Major FAIL. Hey Brill, Long time no see! I have to completely agree with you on the FAIL -- this has been outstanding for quite some time. I was under the impression that once we were able to purchase apps from the market we'd also be able to sell; I paid my fee right away and became a registered Android developer... We can offer free apps but still can't sell.

[android-developers] Tapping activity after startActivityForResult
Hi, I have two buttons in an activity/view A0, b1 and b2 that respectively starts (for result) the activities A1 and A2. After tapping/clicking b1 I quickly tap b2 aswell. The result will be that both A1 and A2 are launched. Is there any obvious way to not have this behaviour, i.e. to "lock" A0? I am thinking of overriding dispatchTouchEvent to consume everything after the call to startActivityForResult, but it seems a bit much...

[android-developers] Playing recorded sounds in Android 1.5
Hi,
I have an application that I developed using the Android 1.1 SDK that
I am trying to port to Android 1.5. In my application, I record a
sound through the microphone and then do various things with it,
including playing it back using a MediaPlayer object. My code works
fine when I use the 1.1 target, but when I use a 1.5 target I get this
error when setting up the player:
Command PLAYER_SET_DATA_SOURCE completed with an error or info
PVMFErrNotSupported
error (1, -4)
Couldn't setup MediaPlayer
java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0x1
at android.media.MediaPlayer.prepare(Native Method)
at org.byu.chum.AudioUtils.AudioRecording.stopRecording
(AudioRecording.java:92)
at org.byu.chum.SoundRecorder.Recorder$StopListener.onClick
(Recorder.java:198)
...
It seems like Android isn't liking the format of my media, but I don't
know why, since I just recorded that very format on the Android
device. Here's the code that is throwing the error:
player = new MediaPlayer();
try {
player.setDataSource(recordFile.toString());
player.prepare();
}
catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("playRecording", "Couldn't setup MediaPlayer",
e);
}
Has anyone seen this or does anybody have any ideas on what might be
causing this problem?
Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Playing recorded sounds in Android 1.5
I'm just using the built in MediaRecorder and MediaPlayer clases, so,
no I'm not using alsa_sound.
However, thanks to some help I was able to discover that the problem
is being caused by the permissions set on the recorded file, which is
not world-readable in Android 1.5. I was able to fix this by
inserting the following code:
//set player permissions
String command = "chmod 666 " + recordFile.toString();
try {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
} catch (IOException e1) {
Log.e("SetPermissions", "Couldn't set permissions", e1);
}
If I execute that before creating the MediaPlayer, my code works
fine. But, does anyone know of a better way to set the permissions
correctly besides using the exec command?

Nobody else uses the recording, but I do have several other functions
that use information that I can get from using a File object instead
of a FileDescriptor, such as file size.

[android-developers] Re: Playing recorded sounds in Android 1.5
It's not an issue right now, but I decided it would probably be wiser
to leave the file private in case it becomes an issue in the future,
and changed my code to use a file descriptor.
Thanks for your help!

[android-developers] RemoteViews setSelected
Hi, I am trying to do aRemoteViews.setBoolean(R.id.a_text_view, "setSelected", true) on a text view in a homescreen widget to select the view, but I only get the textview to display a text like "error expanding view"(!). The log says: android.widget.RemoteViews$ActionException: view: android.widget.TextView can't use method with RemoteViews: setSelected (boolean). Ok, so I cannot use setSelected (through reflection) on the remote text view(?). But I would still like to set it to selected to get the maquee-scrolling going again (which worked with the initial view, before the update of the text). Any ideas?

[android-developers] AppWidgets and permissions
Hi, I've developed an appWidget by inheriting AppWidgetProvider and adding it to the manifest as a receiver with the appwidget-metatag. Works fine. Two questions though: 1. It seems that the only reason to add APPWIDGET_UPDATE to the intentfilter of the receiver is to let the widgetpicker recognize it as an appwidget? The intents (update/enable/disable) it received no matter if they are included in the intentfilter or not. How come? 2. When adding a permission to the receiver to disable spoofed intents, I actually expected the APPWIDGET_XXX intents not to be received since they are(?) sent from a sender without the permission. Not so, they arrived just as before. How is this possible? Do these intents get some special treatment by the system? /Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] DynamicLayout and StringBuilder
Hi,
I am writing a custom View that uses a DynamicLayout to write text on
the screen. The DynamicLayout is constructed with a StringBuilder that
I use to change the text. This works fine, but my problem is that when
I add linebreaks to the string, sb.append("\n"), they show up as
squares on the screen and no linebreaking is done... Does anyone have
an idea what I may miss here?
/Michael

[android-developers] Display Contacts "You don't have any contacts to display" possibly caused by NullPointerException: null
Hi, I'm developing a Names based on the code for Google Contacts. I have got my application running and can save new names to the sqlite database. However, I cannot display records after saving them. The UI displays "You don't have any contacts to display". I think it may relate to a "NullPointerException: null" error that I see in Eclipse. Has anyone come across this or able to offer some ideas to help me retrieve/display records after saving them? Background: I don't want my Names synchronised with Google's Contacts, so I'm not using the Contacts API provided by Android. My Names application is to be a module in a bigger application. My Names and NamesProvider application in based on source code of the Contacts and ContactsProvider packages downloaded from the Git repository at http://android.git.kernel.org/ and changing it to run as my Names application on the Android emulator. I have been patching it up using more code from the repository as well as sticking in empty classes/methods where I think functionality isn't required (e.g. the telephone functionality). The goal is to make have this code working before making changes to remove the redundant functionality from the UI. So far I have managed to make my Names application load up and display the "You have no contacts" screen. I am also able to add contacts and they are successfully stored within this application's own contacts database. I am then able to see these records via the sqlite command line. The problem is that returning to the contacts list displays the "You don't have any contacts to display" message instead of the newly added contact. I have checked the database using SQLite and the information is successfully stored in the correct location. I currently have a few theories for why this is happening: 1) The res/layout-finger/contacts_list_content.xml file is called by the code in ContactList. Looking at this file in the layout tab in Eclipse shows NullPointerException: null. Commenting out the FocusRequestingListView attribute removes this in place of an "Empty" screen. However, LogCat never shows a NullPointerException during execution. 2) My query may not be reaching the database. I have renamed packages to force it to install on the emulator, so it is possible this is causing the query to not be received by the database correctly, giving an empty list of contacts. I don't know where in the Contacts code this query occurs so I am unable to test it. If possible, could someone point me in the right direction? 3) The query is structured incorrectly. I have had to change some constant names to the values themselves as they weren't resolving properly. It could be that I have renamed a constant incorrectly, but it is still a valid attribute within the database with an empty field, causing the query to return empty data. Personally, I think 1) or 2) are the most likely causes but any help at all would be massively appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Display Contacts "You don't have any contacts to display" possibly caused by NullPointerException: null
Just a quick follow-up: Using the built-in search facility, I am able to "view" names, however no information is displayed. I believe the problem here is the same as the Names list. Looking at res/layout-finger/contact_card_layout.xml in Eclipse is a NullPointerException: null. Again, LogCat shows no error output. Interestingly, when I search for a name, the search suggestions box displays contact information e.g. phone number, email address but selecting the name doesn't show this information. In addition, the "Edit" button is greyed out and not selectable. I have done some testing and the queries for Names are not being directed to Android's Contacts provider.

[android-developers] "Image Map Type" style Overlay in MapView
I have a website where I use the Javascript Maps API, and I use an Image Map (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/ maptypes.html#ImageMapTypes) to display my custom tiles on top of a map. These tiles use the tile/pixel coordinates as defined by Google in that document. This works fine for the Javascript API. To give a better in-app experience, I'd like to use a MapView, rather than a WebView (or opening the browser) with the JS API. However, I'm having a hard time getting the tiles to display properly in the MapView. It doesn't seem to behave the same way as the JS API. I'm not sure whether that's due to tile size, the projection used, or something else, but I was wondering if anyone had done something similar and could share some ideas or code on how to do this.

[android-developers] Re: "Image Map Type" style Overlay in MapView
I figured it out. For anyone else who might be interested, the map tiles on Android's MapView seem to be twice as dense as the JS API's. So if you have an existing tileset, just read them in with an inSampleSize of 2, and adjust the positioning accordingly.

You are confusing a BroadcastReceiver with an Activity, and there's
nothing you can add to the manifest to correct that since an activity
tag can't describe or invoke a receiver. If you want to launch something
at boot, then code a receiver that launches the app.

The compile error:

The error essentially is that the RxBcast cannot be aware of an
external app that exists on an Android somewhere. The
PiesOfCodActivity is a retitled "helloworld" that works just fine on
my Android.
Perhaps there is some sort of intent construction where the app-to-be-
is a string that represents future runtime intentions.
Thanks for all of your good thoughts and help.
Of course not you put it in a different application. That's not what I
thought you asked about, I thought you wanted an app that would launch
at boot. Did you get it working with the receiver in the same package?
To launch another activity outside your package you need different
information in the intent. One way is to specify the package of the
other app:
Intent si = new
Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN).setPackage("com.hootinholler.PiesOfCod");
The other app needs to have an action MAIN defined in its manifest and
it also needs a category DEFAULT
I've tested this here with one application that only has the
PiesOfCodActivity in the PiesOfCod package and another app that only has
the RxBcast in a Pies package and constructs the intent as above.
Really this didn't take that much to solve given a little reading and
experimentation. I agree with Tre that you should probably read up on
Intents and how they get created and resolved.
Also I don't think it will be a good idea to have an app with no
launchable activity as it could make it hard for users to uninstall

But my two cents are that it depends on the situation. :-) I don't think there is a definitive answer here, only reasonable ones. For example, if the widget for which you are writing the listener will only appear in this Activity, then having the Activity itself implement the interface is probably fine. But, say for example you're creating some layout that appears on all of your activities (maybe a common group of buttons or something like that), then I would create a separate reusable listener class that saves you from having to duplicate code. Good point. I don't have a particular problem starting out with the anonymous class early in the project. When it's needed elsewhere It's a straight forward refactoring to extract the class. I'm pretty new to Android, at first glance, I'm not sure how useful this would be in the button group. Wouldn't each button need its own listener? Wouldn't there be an activity associated with them?

I'm not sure but you also might need a default category for the activity

What do you mean by you have to debug as an Android? Of course you have
to run the code on a device to debug it. Also you won't be able to
attach the debugger to your receiver because it will fire before the
DDMS is attached.

Re: [android-developers] nested listview
If I understand what you mean, then yes, except it is all handled in the ExpandableListView. You provide 2 lists, via some adapter, one is the parent list and the other a child list which you get by over-riding a getChildren method, depending how your lists are obtained. (In an implementation I did, I use a DB to back the lists, so I use a SimpleCursorTreeAdapter and I override getChildrenCursor) Have a look at the expandable list examples in the api demos, there are 3 data source flavors in there.

Re: [android-developers] Re: CursorAdapter? or OtherAdapter?
What Mark was asking is why are rows you do not need included in the results pointed to by the cursor. The cursor is loaded by a DB query. That is where you should apply filtering, etc and the cursor should contain only what you need to display at that moment. If your cursor has extra data, then adjust your query to return only the rows you need. If you need several different queries you can use more than one URI in your content provider so that you map one URI to one query. Choosing between an ArrayAdapter and a CursorAdapter really should be driven by where the data are stored and how big of a list you have. Without more knowlege of your app, it's hard to know which would be better, but in general it is silly to unload a cursor into an array for display when you can just use the cursor unless you have a compelling reason not to.

[android-developers] Detecting if activity is running from service
I have a service that obtains and stores sample data from a web service. It is triggered by alarms, gets a sample which may or may not be new, stores it in my DB. At that point, if a new sample was added, and the activity that lists the samples is active, I want to notify it to refresh the cursor to include the new sample. If the activity isn't running, I don't care because it will be fine when it launches. If I set up a receiver and send a broadcast won't the broadcast cause it to launch if the activity isn't running? That is behavior that I don't want. This isn't really a show stopper, but I would appreciate any strategy ideas you might have in making this happen in a reasonable amount of effort. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

That is behavior that I don't want. Use an ordered broadcast to notify your foreground activity, and possibly display a Notification if the activity is not in the foreground: http://commonsware.com/blog/2010/08/11/activity-notification-ordered-broadcast.html Here is a sample demonstrating this: https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/tree/master/Broadcast/Ordered I'll have a look and probably have some questions after I do. I already optionally send a notify that a new sample was stored. Or, have your activity get its data from the service via a ContentProvider, and use a ContentObserver (which happens automagically if you are using a CursorLoader). Ah, I'm coding to API level 8 so I'm using a managedQuery. It seemed like a lot of devices would be cut out if I went to a higher API level. I guess I'm feeling the frustrations of the moving platform now. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Followup questions about detecting install / first launch
I'm still getting my head around the API and can use a check if I'm understanding this right.

Ok, I understand that ACTION_PACKAGE_INSTALL wasn't implemented. There is no broadcast to the app when its package is installed. Doesn't the installer from Market^H^H^H^H^H^H Play start the app as the default? I haven't published an app as yet so I'm not sure if it's configurable from the deployment console. After some googleing i found there is no direct way. So which is the best work around for that. You do the work when the user first runs your app. API 12 gave us ACTION_PACKAGE_FIRST_LAUNCH and ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED. I've been writing to 8 and piggybacked my first run code to the DB helper, since what I'm doing needs a DB. I suppose it's easy enough to store an already ran flag in preferences and check that. What are the techniques people have been using to manage this? Storing static versioning and checking it? Using the manifest versioning data? This may seem like a lame question, but curiosity has gotten the better of me. I guess what I'm asking is there are a lot of ways to skin this cat, what are people doing? Is it worth using the broadcasts and maintaining your own state to provide backward compatibility or is everyone saying bag that and just rolling their own? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Re: [android-developers] Newbie question - first attempt to run App on device gets Force Close
Double check that the emulator you run on is versioned lower than your device. Observe the launch with DDMS view which should report the exception. Run it under the debugger on your device.

Re: [android-developers] How to keep activity running
On 3/19/2012 9:01 PM, Dianne Hackborn wrote: Personally I would say that for any question that implies you are subclassing Application, the answer is "no". :) Subclassing from Application doesn't let you do anything more than you could other ways, and there is a good chance it is going to lead you into a worse app design that you will ultimately be fighting with. I just ran across roboguice. At first glance it seems like it requires that Application be subclassed so it can do its injection thing. Would you concede that use as an exception to your rule of thumb? While I haven't experimented with it yet (still climbing learning curves) I'm curious about what other developers think of it. For something like navigation, the correct way to do this is to use a Service, and call Service.startForeground() when you are actively doing work the user cares about (navigating). This will also require that you post a notification, making the user aware of what you are doing (which by definition they already are, since the only reason to be foreground is because this is something the user directly cares about, so the notification gives them a facility to get back to it and manage it). If one needed all the state but not really a service, isn't this what the Activity/ActivityFragment models? The state goes in the Activity and it is responsible for each ActivityFragment that it hosts and is in a position to ensure the proper state for the given fragment. I could well be out in left field here being fairly new to Android, but it seems to me that Notification is a little limited in what can be done as far as user interactions go? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
