[android-developers] Web services for mobile apps
Hi Everyone, We're been releasing quite a few iPhone and Android apps over the past few months that have required various pieces of server side support. Mostly we wanted to be able to control welcome messages, upgrade notifications, collect errors and analytics. Having built all this ourselves we now want to open it up to other mobile app developers. Today we opened up shoutmob.com to developers who want to be part of the beta. We will be providing: - broadcast messages (welcome, upgrade notifications) - high score table storage and retrieval - error collection - usage statistics Developers who join up early will receive a signup bonus. So head over to http://shoutmob.com?refcode=NoUtBO and sign up now. Thanks!

[android-developers] Download counts frozen
Hi, Is anyone else seeing their download counts frozen for their apps in the Market place? I am 100% certain I have downloads occurring due to updated behaviour on our servers. But our downloads counts have been stuck for the past 4 days now.

[android-developers] Re: Sending email
John - I'm assuming this only works on the real device and not the emulator? I'm trying Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, email text); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, Subject); sendIntent.setType(message/rfc822); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, Title:)); and am getting No Applications can perform this action which is the same when you select the email address in the contact list of the emulator. Prob because there is not email client in the emulator right? Justin - Is it possible to have access to the .apk for the mail programs that come with the G1 so we can install them on the emulator? Thanks On Nov 1, 12:36 am, john [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey, that did it! I set the the mime type to 'message/rfc822' and it worked right away. Brings up the default mail application with the fields that I specified populated. I had been trying to send it with a mime of text/plain and text/html. I thought that by specifying an EXTRA_EMAIL it would fire the right broadcast receivers, but I guess the mime type is what counts. Thanks again!

For a mime type try 'message/rfc822' or 'message/rfc2822'. I haven't tried this myself, so let me know how it works. Cheers, Justin Android Team @ Google Original Message Follows: From: john [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [android-developers] Sending email Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2008 08:02:36 -0700 (PDT) Hello! Thanks in advance for trying to help me out. It doesn't seem like anyone has found a solution to this problem yet, so hopefully we can figure this out and help a lot of people. I'm trying to get my application to send an email, but i can't seem to find any solutions. Here's what I'm trying: I've got an Intent (called sender in this example) set to Intent.ACTION_SEND, with various email extras. When I try startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sender, Select send method.)); I get No application can handle this request And when I try sendBroadcast(Intent.createChooser(sender, Select send method.)); Nothing happens at all. Is there something I need to put in my manifest file, or am I doing this completely wrong? Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated. Happy coding! -John --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Intent for sending email
Hi, I want to be able to send an email in my application, however I'm not interested in the user entering their mail details/SMTP server. I would like to forward the user off to another application that handles email/contact selection. It seems I should be able to use the Intent.ACTION_SEND. Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, email text); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, Chooser Title:)); But the emulator tells me No applications can perform this action. Will the G1 with an email client and GMail potentially handle this intent correctly? Is it possible to get the GMail app installed on the emulator? Thanks!
