[android-developers] Re: Problem with reading contacts on Samsung Galaxy Europa

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Alberto,

I saw this on the Galaxy S also.  I have tested the app on the Galaxy
Spica (i5700), it is working perfectly.  But when I tested the app on
the Galaxy S, the app crashes.

I haven't found a solution yet, but this is what I found from Logcat:
08-23 17:14:30.394: INFO/ActivityManager(2244): Displayed activity
com.android.contacts/
com.sec.android.app.contacts.PhoneBookTopMenuActivity: 452 ms (total
452 ms)

Versus what is seen from the emulator:
08-23 17:18:08.533: INFO/ActivityManager(52): Displayed activity
com.android.contacts/.DialtactsContactsEntryActivity: 348 ms (total
348 ms)

Looks like the Galaxy S has a different way of handling intents for
the Phonebook.

If you find a solution, please let me know also.

Thanks!
-Zarah

[android-developers] Re: LED turn off

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Anand,

Are you sure? I am also using Eclair 2.1 and I have that option.

Or are you asking how to turn off the screen programmatically (which I
don't know how to do heheh).


Thanks,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: A ListView that acts like RadioButtons

[Zarah Dominguez]

What about using the choiceMode attribute for a ListView?

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ListView.html#setChoiceMode(int)

I have tried using CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE and it works.  I am guessing
CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE would act like an ACTION_PICK.

[android-developers] Re: New ADT available.

[Zarah Dominguez]

Saw this problem too.

Tried uninstalling then re-installing the plugins, but still no
Android options anywhere.

Eclipse sees my Android projects as Java projects.

Were you able to solve it?

Hi again,


Was able to make it work by uninstalling Eclipse, including all
versions in /Users//.eclipse, re-installing it then adding
the Update site again.

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Xav,

I updated from 0.9.7 to 0.9.9.  I haven't updated my other workstation
though (it's also still on 0.9.7), how do you suggest I proceed?

Uninstalling and then installing Eclipse seems to be a lot of trouble
for a plug in update. Any ideas? :)



Thanks,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Can I post text to facebook profile from my android application?

[Zarah Dominguez]

Sure you can!

You can get the official Facebook SDK for Android from
http://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk

There are also examples there to help you get started.

Good luck!

[android-developers] Retrieving the path of a picture returned by ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi guys,

I am having a problem capturing an image from the built-in camera app
on the Samsung Galaxy S.  (I also posted this on StackOverflow)

I have a button on my app that when pressed launches the camera:
//-
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(Images.Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/jpeg");

mPicUri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
values);

intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mPicUri.getPath());
startActivityForResult(intent, REQ_CODE_TAKE_PIC);
//-

>From what I read on the interwebz, I can get the full-sized just-taken
picture using the URI I passed to the intent. And so I have this on my
onActivityResult:
//-
Uri selectedImage = mPicUri;
String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};

Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,
filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();

int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String filePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
//-

And then using the variable filePath, I set the image in an ImageView.
I am getting no image, and when I stepped through the code, I found
out that BitmapFactory.decodeFile() is returning null.

Bitmap chosenPic = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath);


So I tried a little more debugging. I found out that mPicUri returns a
seemingly valid URI, such as: content://media/external/images/media/90.
After the picture is taken and the user chooses to save the picture,
the cursor resolves to the following filePath: /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/
1285601413961.jpg. No bitmap is decoded though, BUT when I looked
through the gallery, the picture I just took is there. So I tried to
take a look at the URI of that picture, and this is what I got:

URI is:   content://media/external/images/media/91
File path is: /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/2010-09-27 23.30.30.jpg

And so, it looks like the value I got from mPicUri is not the final
URI that will be used.

Am I missing a step here? All I really want to do is retrieve the file
of the just-taken picture.

Thanks in advance,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with reading contacts on Samsung Galaxy Europa

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Alberto,


Sorry, I only saw this thread again today.

I wasn't able to launch the Phonebook, I just added a small bit of
code to check if there is someone who can receive the phonebook
intent.

PackageManager pkgMgr = getPackageManager();
List list = pkgMgr.queryIntentActivities(new
Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Contacts.CONTENT_URI),
PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
if (list.isEmpty()){
// I just remove the menu item to access the phonebook
menu.removeItem(R.id.app_menu_contacts);
}

Maybe you can try this approach also.


Hope this helps,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Can I post text to facebook profile from my android application?

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Rokson!

You're welcome.  I am using Alex Pretzlav's version though, see here:
http://github.com/Pretz/facebook-android-sdk

He added support for screen rotation (the official examples crash when
rotated).  I think the main difference is that in Alex's version, he
let the OS manage the dialogs.

Goodluck!


-Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with image button

[Zarah Dominguez]

Try moving the elements in the XML around a bit.

Try to think of your selector as a big if-else.

How did you handle this on your end?

[android-developers] Re: Problem with reading contacts on Samsung Galaxy Europa

[Zarah Dominguez]

I was also able to insert a contact into the address book.  So far it
looks like the only action not supported is viewing the whole contacts
list.

Pasted the stacktrace I got in StackOverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3547118/accessing-the-phonebook-on-galaxy-s-crashes-the-app

I guess what happened is that Samsung's own contacts app has an
incomplete manifest.  Oh well, for the meantime I managed to get
around it by disabling the button to access the phonebook using
PackageManager so that users won't be confused.

[android-developers] Re: Could use some help (free game on Galaxy S problem)

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Patrick!

Will try to download your game.  Looks like Market is acting up over
here and it won't start the download.  Will try again later.

For a relatively expensive phone, it looks like Galaxy S gives us
developers quite a headache. ;)

[android-developers] Re: The Market App has a CACHE !

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Tony!

I experienced the same thing last Friday!  I updated my app but when I
checked the market it still shows the old version.  I was in a panic
too! ;)

I forced the Market app to terminate and then restarted it (pretty
much what Doug said, eh?), and it showed the update.  I am not sure if
there is some other way to force a page on the Market app to refresh
other than this way.

Hi Mike,


Seeing as you already had a workaround, do you still need the snippet?

On second thought, your email seems to be deleted. Oh well.

[android-developers] Re: Padding of a Button

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi DanH,

Use an ImageButton, set the image as the src, set the background to
@android:color/transparent, then add padding.




I hope this achieves what you want.


Best Regards,
Zarah.

No problem, Patrick!

[android-developers] Re: Get Location debbuging on device

[Zarah Dominguez]

TreKing is right.

You should enable GPS on your test device (Settings > Location and
Security).

Then in your onLocationChanged, you can put in a Toast or Log to
display to you the current location.

If you don't get location updates, try setting Use Wireless Networks
(also in Settings > Location and Security).


- Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: New ADT available.

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi guys!

Just got back to this thread.

Hi String, so you ended up updating with a fresh install? I would hate
to do that on my other workstation.  Seems like too much work for an
update, and so my laptop is stuck with ADT 0.9.7.


Thanks,
Zarah.

Is it just me, or did I also lose the hierarchyviewer when I upgraded
the ADT? It is not in the /tools folder anymore.

*grumpy*

Hi Prajakta,

Did you include the actual class of the LoginButton?  You must also
refer to the login button class in your xml instead of the normal
button class.

The .jar is in tools/lib, but there should be a .bat file in /tools.

Found this thread:

[android-developers] Can an image be embedded in an email body?

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi guys,

Hope you can help me with my question.

I am trying to embed an image in an email body.  I am trying to use
the ImageGetter to retrieve the bitmap, and send my Intent like this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/html");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,
getResources().getString(R.string.recommend_vid_title));
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT   , Html.fromHtml(emailBody, imgGet,
null));

When viewing the draft using the GMail app, all I see is [OBJ] instead
of the bitmap.

I tried setting the email contents to a TextView just to check if it
is correctly formatted and the image shows up fine.  Is this a problem
with the GMail app or am I doing something stupid?

I am testing using the Samsung Galaxy S.  Hope someone can help. :)
Thanks in advance!


Best regards,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Can an image be embedded in an email body?

[Zarah Dominguez]

Hi Kumar,


Thanks for your response. I'm having misgivings about the GMail app.
First of all, it doesn't even recognize the market:// URI, what's up
with that?

Anyway, do you have any suggestions on how can I achieve what I want?
As much as possible I want the image to be embedded/inline instead of
an attachment.


Thank you again,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Can an image be embedded in an email body?

[Zarah Dominguez]

Uh-oh, that sounds ominous.  Just out of curiosity, how would I do it
if I have my own app?

As for the GMail App alternative, is there a way to send the image an
attachment without first having to save it in a cache or the SD card?

Sorry for so many questions.


Best regards,
Zarah.

[android-developers] Re: Can an image be embedded in an email body?

[Zarah Dominguez]

After fiddling around for many hours, I tried this approach:

- Download the image
- Byte64-encode the downloaded bitmap
- Use the resulting string as the image source

String thumbData = Base64.encodeBytes(data);
String thumb = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + thumbData;

(Base64 is an open-source Base64-encoder I found)

Sadly, this produced the same result as before.  No image, just
[OBJ]. :(



-Zarah.
