Finding the other guy or finding you, whatever works :) He's the only other person I've found searching around that's had the same problem. You might be able to use a service discovery protocol like bonjour for this. I think usb tether uses unroutable addresses and considers the two links as separate networks. wifi treats them as on the same network. That's fine I plan on putting each phone on a different subnet and routing between them (for now at least). I'd like to have pairs of addresses like this PCPhone 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2 192.168.2.1, 192.168.2.2 192.168.3.1, 192.168.3.2 192.168.4.1, 192.168.4.2 192.168.5.1, 192.168.5.2 etc In a tethering situation the phone is the dhcp server and the PC contacts us for an ip address. That architecture doesn't really work for me for obvious reasons. Although it makes total sense for the common use case (one phone, one pc tethered together) since you don't have to assume that the PC is running a DHCP server. The addresses used are hardcoded in the tethering code and you won't be able to change it without rebuilding and flashing devices. Not necessarily true, I use commands like the one below to change the phones IP. adb -s myphoneserial shell 'echo 1 /sys/class/usb_composite/rndis/enable' adb -s myphoneserial shell 'ip route add myphoneaddress dev usb0; ip link set usb0 up' for each phone, it works just like I want it to, like in the table I made earlier. I do a few other things (like PC side setup and ip addr del 192.168.42.129 dev usb0) to set up the network but those two lines (especially the first one) are key for me. It could be moved into a user visible setting but the extra complexity in settings and the percentage of users who would like it just didn't lead us down that path. That makes sense though I think hardcoding anything is, in general, bad practice. I think you (you meaning Google) should add this functionality in, I think you're going to see a lot more requests like mine in the next year or so. It doesn't even have to be in the Settings menu on the phones IMO, maybe just a config file somewhere. Basically, I'd like to be able to change the default IP address without having to rebuild anything. Each phone has a usb0 interface, the PC has interfaces usb0, usb1, usb2, usb3, usb4, etc. I plan on making a network of many ( 10, 100) phones, eventually I'll have more than PC too. Most users also appreciate the convenience of wireless when using phones also.. don't tie them down! Not me! :) I specifically want to make a usb network of devices. lol.. to each their own.. heh, I'm not crazy I swear. One more question: it seems that Android phones really like 192.168.42.129 as their address when they're put in tethering mode. I grepped the entire FS on my phone for this string and it seems that this address is hard coded and can't be changed without rebuilding some part of Android, is this right? I believe I found the address in a dex file somewhere under /cache. I'm really sure how those dex files are created (run time, build time, something else??) As I said above these addresses are baked into java code and can't really be altered without making a new image. I don't know about the problem you might face trying to patch the dex files.

[android-developers] android application which communicates with one central database?
Hi Im new to android development. The application I would like to write needs to have one database on a server, which all instances of the application needs to communicate with simply. So there will be no database on each android, just an ability to send info to the central database. Can anyone point me to tutorials or resources on this sort of development?

Is there a chance that these types of improvements/fixes could be

waiting for the full release.

Hi All,

I have a simple method to handle a fragment transaction
(FragmentTransaction) where I add a fragment and apply a custom
transition so that it will fade-in/fade-out. I am also adding this to
the back stack so that the user can undo that transaction with the
back button, essentially navigating to the state before the fragment
was added.
Everything works great moving forward, but when the user clicks the
back button, the transition animations do not reverse. What I expected
was that when the fragment got removed, it would use the fade out
animation. Instead it seems to pop out (without animation) and then
the container seems to fade in. I'm not sure that this is exactly what
is happening, but the fragment is definitely not fading out.
Here is the method that handles the transaction:
protected void changeFragment() {
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.fade_in,
android.R.anim.fade_out);
ft.add(R.id.fragment_container, new TestFragment());

Does anyone know if I am just doing something wrong here or if I am
just expecting too much? Ideally, I would like to animate the
fragments similarly to how Gmail (on the Xoom) does in regards to
moving forward by clicking a message and then back by using the back
button. Preferably not having to override the back button
functionality and keep up with my own fragment state since I could
have several transactions that I would want to back out of and I am
not a fan of re-inventing wheels.

[android-developers] Showing a progress dialog while waiting for video buffering
I'm currently using VideoView to play videos in my app and I would like to display a progress dialog (indeterminate) while the video buffers. Currently I am showing the progress onCreate and then hiding it in my onPreparedListener. This is fine for playing from the beginning, but often I will want to use seekTo() to start/resume at a specific point in the video. I have tried calling progress.hide() from my onSeekCompletionListener, but that is closing the progress too early and the user gets a blank screen for several seconds before the video starts playing since the video isn't buffered to that point yet. Is there some way that I can find out when the video has buffered enough for the user to watch the video from an arbitrary point? This seems like a common need, but I haven't found any help via search. Am I missing something obvious here? Any/all help is appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Checking for font support at runtime?
Hi, have an application that is going to be shipping on devices with varying font support in several different locales. Some of them will have the standard Android fonts on them (supporting Latin, Cyrillic, Chinese characters, etc.), and others will have extended font support (Thai, Hindi, others). My application displays text in languages that aren't guaranteed to be supported by Android's native fonts on all the devices it will ship on. (This is outside of the normal translated string resources). So I would like to know if it's possible to interrogate font support for a given language at runtime. In other words, given a string of text, can I interrogate something in the Android API that tells me whether there's a font available to display the text? I can get the Unicode block for a given string of characters easily enough. Given that information, I would think I could get a list of fonts in Android, and see if there's support for my Unicode block in the available fonts. Is that possible? Any insights greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kelly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] YouTube video encoding for Android devices
Hi, I've noticed that, in general, videos played through Android's YouTube player seem to look a lot better than videos I stream from other mobile-video sites (e.g. m.break.com). It's not that there's anything wrong with those, but I'm curious about how they're achieving the frame rate, clarity, and lack of pixellation I see on YouTube videos on Android. Does anyone here have any insights into that, or might be able to suggest a group where an inquiry like this is more appropriate?

[android-developers] Payment options for Android Market
Hello, Not long ago, I read a post at http://androidcommunity.com/google-to-expand-android-market-payment-choices-20090716/ about coming updates to the Android Market. These updates had to do with expanded options for billing beyond the current ones (free vs. paid). I was wondering if anyone had any idea when these additional options will be available. Google Checkout has a new capability for monthly subscriptions, which is in beta. I assume the updates to Android Market will take place once the new Google Checkout feature is out of beta. I also assume the time table for this particular feature coming out of beta will be shorter than the beta period for, say, Gmail. Any insights are appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Getting error when trying to read file : java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File /data/testing.txt contains a path separator
You might try just using java.io.File, which works well for me:
File file = new File(/whatever/path/to/file.txt);
try {
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
...
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
...
}
I've noticed in the documentation that openFileInput() is supposed to
be what you use, but I haven't determined if the above is not okay,
and if not, why not. I'm doing this in several places, and it has
never caused a problem.

You probably don't have a file at /data/testing.txt.
My code is like that:
FileInputStream _orifile_ =
openFileInput(/data//_samplefile_._txt_);
openFileInput() accepts relative paths only. No leading slashes are
allowed. openFileInput() represents files stored in an
application-specific storage area. getFilesDir() will tell you where
this is, IIRC.

Ah, that makes sense. What I'm doing with the java.io.File approach is
reading/writing to/from areas on the sd card.

That works, so long as you have read access to whatever it is you're
trying to read. And, so long as you are able to put files wherever it is
you're trying to read them from.

openFileInput() gives you a storage spot unique to your application in
the on-board flash. It is not for use for, say, accessing /sdcard.
