[android-beginners] Re: Eclipse Project Dependencies
Hi, I'm having the same problem. Did you find a solution to this yet? Thanks, Cosmin On Nov 18, 4:50 am, GT gswee...@gmail.com wrote: I have found several posts about people who have Project References working fine and people who don't. I haven't found any solutions though. I am trying to use a class that is in a different project but I have not been succesful. I have tried using Project References to get Android project A to reference Android project B which has the class I want to use. Eclipse couldn't find the class so I assume that isn't enough. I then added Project B to Project A's build path via the Java Build Path control in Project A's properties. Eclipse could then find the class but I get a NoClassDefFoundError exception when I run Project A in the emulator. I have also tried rearranging the build order in Order and Export. I even tried adding the class folder of Project B's .class file to Project A's Libraries. I feel like there is something simple right in front of me that I am overlooking but I haven't found it. Does anyone have any recomendations for project references in Eclipse?

Hi Mark, Thanks for your help. I am registering for the CW group as well. Cheers Alex P.S. My example also needs to be fixed :).

[android-beginners] Re: r cannot be resolved and other Eclipse/Android oddities
Hi oregonduckman, For the R cannot be resolved issue, make sure your R import is in the form: import your.package.name.R Sometimes a default of: import android.R will appear (I've not figured out the metric that causes this to occur). Remove the android.R import, and replace it with your.package.name.R. Hopefully this will help. As far as the build path errors issue, again I've not figured out exactly what triggers this, but if you touch any of your project files (i.e., make an inconsequential change and resave it, so Eclipse thinks it needs to be rebuilt, or use a Touch utility), and rebuild, this should hopefully help too. You may have to do it twice. I usually just pick one of the project's .java files and touch that. Hope this helps!

I get that. This is not the issue. In both cases, the activity goes through the same cycle and calls the same activity lifecycle methods.

Hi Treking, I obtained the MD5 fingerprint from debug.keystore and registered a api-key. I believe I have properly set the INTERNET , ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permissions, uses-library and followed everything else in the HelloMapView tutorial. But my app doesn't load map tiles either. I have searched through the group and found many people have the same problem but no solutions been given. Do you have any clue where I got it wrong? Thanks. On Dec 8, 1:11 am, TreKing treking...@gmail.com wrote: I've set the debug.keystore. You don't set the debug.keystore ... that's already there as part of the SDK. You use that to get a hash value that you use on the maps api key signup page to get your debug key. I've verified I have them in the right place according to the Eclipse configuration. Setting up the maps API keys has nothing to do with Eclipse configuration. You add them to you mapview layouts (or set them in the map view constructor if you choose to do it in code). I'm thinking you might have mixed up some terms and not set this up properly. Go through the set uphttp://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/mapkey.html steps again. Make sure you have a debug key gained from the debug keystore and a release key gained from your release keystore and that you're using the correct one (the debug one in debug mode, the release one in release mode).

[android-beginners] Contacts sync is not working
Hi, I recentIy noticed that my contacts sync is not working anymore. When I add a contact via gmail contacts it doensn't sync to my G1. I don't know when it stopped working, I don't add contacts regularly and I don't check often if the sync works. Actually I expected this to just work and continue to work. I expect difficulties/problems sync with MS Outlook but not with Google contacts. One of the reasons for wanting this phone was the good integration with gmail, contacts, calendar. This integration still needs a lot of work as it turns out. Is this is a known issue that I am not aware of? I have googled for it a bit but couldn't find much. Some suggest removing all contacts from the G1 and then will work again. That seems like a risky approach if sync is not working correctly. This implies that you might loose some data. If you don't want to loose data I think the conclusion is that you need to manually sync the contacts, create a backup, remove the all contacts from the phone, drop to your knees and pray that sync will start working again and that the contact information will appear on your phone. Great! That is a sure two thumbs up for Google/Andriod/ Gmail. Not sure what to do know. This all sounds like a lot of work. Maybe I'll just accept that this is just not working.

[android-beginners] Configure Character Set Mode Android SMS
Hello, I have a problem with the configurations of SMS in Android, In my Country the default codification of SMS must be reduced, but android is using the complete mode, in effect, when I try to put a letter wich isn't in the alphabet of the reduced characters (as example, ó, á, etc), the format changes directly to unicode and the quantity of messages needed to send the same SMS is doubled or tripled. Normally the option to configure this is in the SMS menu, but here it isn't. I'm using a motorola milestone with android 2.0 (is the droid version for any countries) Anybody have the solution to change this parameter?
