[android-developers] How do I show a call screen when my VoIP application is on background?
I'm working on an application that uses VoIP and I need to force the call screen on the foreground when the phone receives a call, just like a regular phone call. I know this is generally a bad thing to do, but this feature was requested by the customer and the application won't be publicly available. I know this is possible, but I couldn't get it done. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Infrared support on Android
Hello, I have a customer interested in infrared communication (IrDA) between android and other devices, more specifically with the Motorola tablet MZ608. I noticed the tablets MZ608 and MZ616 are both equipped with IR Blaster, but the specification of the model MZ608 does not mention infrared support, while the specification of the model MZ616 explicitly mentions infrared support. I contacted Motorola support and they said this isn't supported by neither of them, only the remote control function is supported. That was unexpected, to say the least. I can understand if the MZ608 doesn't support IrDA, after all the specification only mentions the IR Blaster, but what about the MZ616? It would be nice to be able to use a Motorola tablet, after all, it was my customer's first pick, but unless the Motorola support got it wrong, we'll have to use another device - which (finally) leads to my question: Has anyone here ever developed an application that uses infrared communication on any Android device? Which one? How did you get access to the manufacturer's API for infrared communication? Thanks in advance, Fabio. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I'm also interested in this feature, is there a way to detect how many gsm interfaces the phone has, and retrieve information from all of them? Maybe there's a way to change the gsm interface from which the TelephonyManager retrieves info. Thanks in advance. Fabio.

[android-developers] TelephonyManager.getNetworkOperator() returning different values under same circumstances
Hello. We sent a beta version of our library to one of our costumers to test his application. During their tests a StringIndexOutOfBoundsException was thrown by our method because the method TelephonyManager.getNetworkOperator() returned an empty string instead of null when his phone has no sim card. What bothers me is that only happened when our method was called for the 4th time - apparently getNetworkOperator returned null on the first 3 calls. Have anyone seen this before?

[android-developers] Re: ANDROID_ID always null on devices
Like I said, although it shouldn't make any difference if I'm using
the fully qualified path or not, I did try your suggestion and it
still gave me null.
I'm not questioning your program, I'm asking for help with my
particular case.
There are lots of examples on this subject that use the exact same
code, I even downloaded a project of an application that should do the
same, but I still got nothing.
I know this code should work, and as far as I know nothing else is
needed to use it (like permissions and such), but it just doesn't work
on both devices I have.

I was hoping I was missing a permission or something like that.

It's not quite clear how you are expecting us to help, though. If the code the rest of us use successfully does not work for you, it's incumbent upon *you* to figure out what is different between your environment and what we're all using. For example, perhaps your devices are rooted or have otherwise undergone a firmware replacement. In that case, ANDROID_ID may have gotten whacked, since that's stored in a system SQLite database AFAICT, and may not be maintained across a rooting operation or firmware replacement. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any place in the Settings app or anywhere that you can see the ANDROID_ID value without code, to see if that is the source of your difficulty.
