[android-developers] Re: I don't see how to do this....
Aha! Thank you! As soon as I read your response it hit me - I am testing on the emulator, which will always give me a null provider! Which means no matter what I do I am gonna get a null which means I can't get a latitude... Which shows that I have had WAY too much time off of programming between Christmas and New years! Thanks a million! On Jan 6, 2:26 pm, Maps.Huge.Info (Maps API Guru) cor...@gmail.com wrote: You're not testing to see if you get a null provider, also I'm not sure asking to use POWER_LOW and ACCURACY_FINE will work as GPS uses a lot of power. I suggest dropping the POWER_LOW and testing provider for null. Also, unless you need a very accurate fix, the wireless network location service (ACCURACY_COARSE) is much faster, uses less power and also works indoors, you might consider using that as well. As a side note, you're not going to get a good fix using getLastKnownLocation without first attaching a listener to the GPS. The last known location might be 100 miles away, if the last time location services were used was a while ago. I've found getLastKnownLocation to be unreliable. -John Coryat Radar Now!

[android-developers] Re: KML and Google Map Application
I think I have figured this out. There are a couple problems with KML files and Android's map application... But nothing really huge. 1. Trying to dynamically generate the KML file doesn't seem to work... However, if one generates the KML and writes it to a file, the URI method can be used to load that KML file. No idea why, but it works perfectly well this way. 2. The format of the file absolutely has to have the style info in it (You can see a good example of it at the google examples of KML files.

It sounds like it's perfect for what I want to do. So I grabbed the Activity, included it in the project and then call it by using these lines : Intent lVideoIntent = new Intent(null, Uri.parse(ytv://+page), view.getContext(), IntroVideoActivity.class); startActivity(lVideoIntent); (page is a String that contains a video id that I have verified is a real id). Every time my code get's to those lines it crashes the app... I tried putting it inside a try/catch clause to see the exception it's throwing and it still crashes the app... I know I am being stupid here, but can someone tell me what i am doing wrong? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Stream youtube to a videoview?
I am sure that this has been discussed before... But I don't seem to be really grokking it... I have a videoview called tv1 on a form. I have a bit of code that fires when a button is pressed that looks like this : String uristr = rtsp://rtsp.youtube.com/youtube/ videos/S2eoCqwBCQI/video.3gp; tv1.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(uristr)); tv1.start(); The emulator tells me that This video cannot be displayed and if I try it on my phone, the app just crashes... Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Emulator won't finish booting...
I had the 1.5 android emulator starting from Eclipse perfectly nicely until yesterday when it suddenly won't finish booting. I haven't installed anything new (Running it on Windows Vista - i know, uck, but I'm waiting for Win 7 to hurry up), haven't even changed the java code I am trying to run... The emulator starts up, get's to the point where it shows Android with the nice lighting effect that goes from left to right over it and then just stays in that state. Last night I tested it by starting it up, going out to the living room, watching two hour long episodes of the first series of Doctor Who, and then coming back in (Essentially giving it 1.5 hours to do it's stuff) - it was still stuck in that state Any ideas what I did wrong? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Emulator won't finish booting...
I actually am starting it using Eclipse... Really, just running the project. (I have to admit, I am rather new at Android development). I created an AVD earlier (While I was attempting to use Netbeans to develop Android apps - it didn't work out very well)... I am just wondering - how can it work one day and then the next day suddenly stop? On Sep 16, 9:29 am, AJ ajeet.invinci...@gmail.com wrote: Hi furby, Are you starting the emulator with -avd option. If not then create an avd and start the emulator with -avd option. See the following link for more details.http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/avd.html Thanks, AJ On Sep 16, 6:03 pm, furby wookie...@gmail.com wrote: I had the 1.5 android emulator starting from Eclipse perfectly nicely until yesterday when it suddenly won't finish booting.

[android-developers] Populating Listview....
I am probably being stupid here because I am a beginner in Android development... But could somebody explain the step by step process of dynamically populating a listview? I have found a few pages that do it by reams and reams of code, but that seems kind of silly to me - I think I must be missing the use of that since I am just looking for a method that essentially says Append an element to the list --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
