[android-developers] Re: [Android LVL] Sporadic false negatives on client devices
Google must do something about this. I had even devised a simple method of discouraging (rendering ineffective) the most basic LVL hack. It simply involved using bogus qualifications and setting a boolean switch to indicate if a negative value returned, then only accepting a positive value if a negative had just been received. It didn't work even after I removed that logic, though. This is not acceptable so let's keep up the pressure on Google to fix it. I submitted a support request. I'll give that a few days and see if anything comes of it. They make it difficult, though. They may be the best of the best of the best in some ways but developer support is NOT one of them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

I am having the same issues. I just created another thread on this. I have been using LVL for a while now and this has been getting worse the last few weeks.

[android-developers] LVL suddently stopped working - returns only timeouts
I have had LVL (licensing validation) in my apps ever since it was first available and suddenly in the past few weeks, without any changes made by me, I have only received timeout errors - even when I increase the timeout set in licenseChecker.java. I have checked and rechecked all of my codes and my key. I have the problem on both my Samsung Galaxy Nexus (running 4.0.2) and my WiFi XOOM (running 4.0.4) Has anybody else been having a problem lately? I have users with these issues as well, it seems.

[android-developers] Re: My experience with LVL and the precedence it sets
I just started using the LVL also. I had problems adding a reference to the LVL project (I kept getting manifest errors immediately upon adding the reference) so I just added it directly. Then, I tried to buile the sample code into my project but I find it all very "clunky". I think it is absurd to not take the time to build methods and properties that automatically can set obfuscation properties, obtain device Id, make a call to do the validation and such. Having source code is mice but they really should have made this quicker to implement with the option to customize and do more with it or to not and take a simpler approach. I was so looking forward to using this but am sorely disappointed. There is a competing android market with a much better licensing implementation, by the way.

[android-developers] Re: Problem finding a contact when ID is known
I finally got it figured out (thanks Beth):
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView arg0, View arg1,
int
position,
long id) {
String name = ContactNameList.get(position);
String strID = ContactIDList.get(position);
String strLKP = ContactLookupList.get(position);
Uri contactUri =
ContactsContract.Contacts.getLookupUri
(Long.parseLong(strID), strLKP);
Intent intent = new
Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,contactUri);
startActivity(intent);
}

[android-developers] Unable to get map overly to show
My map overlay is not showing up after several attempts
Here is my Overlay class code:
public class myOverlay extends Overlay{
private final int mRadius = 6;
@Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas, MapView mapView, boolean
shadow) {
super.draw(canvas, mapView, shadow);
Projection projection = mapView.getProjection();
// if (shadow == false) {
Double latitude = location.getLatitude()*1E6;
Double longitude = location.getLongitude()*1E6;
GeoPoint geoPoint;
geoPoint = new
GeoPoint(latitude.intValue(),longitude.intValue
());
Point point = new Point();
projection.toPixels(geoPoint, point);
RectF oval = new RectF(point.x - mRadius, point.y -
mRadius,
point.x + mRadius, point.y + mRadius);
// Setup the paint
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setARGB(250, 255, 0, 0);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setFakeBoldText(true);
Paint backPaint = new Paint();
backPaint.setARGB(175, 50, 50, 50);
backPaint.setAntiAlias(true);
RectF backRect = new RectF(point.x + 2 + mRadius,
point.y -
3*mRadius, point.x + 65, point.y + mRadius);
// Draw the marker
canvas.drawOval(oval, paint);
canvas.drawRoundRect(backRect, 5, 5, backPaint);
canvas.drawText(noteName, point.x + 2*mRadius, point.y,
paint);
// }
// else {

}
@Override
public boolean onTap(GeoPoint point, MapView mapView) {
// Return true if screen tap is handled by this overlay
return false;
}
Location location;
public Location getLocation() {

this.location = location;
}
String noteName;
public String getNoteName(){

}
Here is the call to add the overlay:
positionOverlay = new myOverlay();
Location loc = new Location("over");
loc.setLatitude(lat);
loc.setLongitude(lng);
positionOverlay.setLocation(loc);
positionOverlay.setNoteName(nm);
mapView.getOverlays().add(positionOverlay);

[android-developers] Problem finding a contact when ID is known
I am having a problem viewing a contact in my app when I know the ID (because we just queried and stored it). I see some comments that a "LOOKUP_URI" is required but I don't know how to use it and no matter what, I get "The contact does not exist" even though I know with 100% certainty that it does. Can someone explain based on the following code snippet: String name = ContactNameList.get(position); String strID = ContactIDList.get(position); Uri contactUri = ContactsContract.Contacts.getLookupUri(Long.parseLong (strID), "name='"+name + "'"); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,contactUri); startActivity(intent); I am finding that ID = 676 for example and that is getting parsed correctly and also that name='Joe Smith' does not throw an error but my activity does not open the contact - I only get the message "The contact does not exist" in a toast.

[android-developers] Re: adding a "quick add event" to the Calendar
I am using the URI. For some strange reason, android sdk does not expose the API. There is a content URI for calendars and events. Search for "android calendar URI" not on android official site but elsewhere and you can find some more info which others have shared and this was useful to me.

I understand where you are coming from... In my app - Target Date Pro - it is possible now to do this quick event addition and also jump to a specific event. Inclusion of reminder to the quickly added event is a likely future enhancement. On Jan 13, 8:26 am, Jonathan Epstein wrote: > I am an experienced developer, but an Android newbie.

[android-developers] Re: ProgressDialog during location tasks either won't show or force closes - I have tried everything!
Thanks. I was trying to create the ProgressDialog in OnCreate or
OnStart. That must be the problem so what is the best approach to do
it immediately when theView is loading?I even tried
RunInUIThread?
Sorry for not including much trace before, by the way. My mistake. I
may try again later if still...
