[android-beginners] Re: Problem with Ecplise android plugin install

2009-08-24 Thread Tony Su

Congrats for at least covering the likely SuSE specific issues and finally 
arriving at what might be a more generic problem with the Eclipse Plugin which 
ironically might be much easier to find the solution... 

If you're looking at what I think is your problem, the common solution is to 
download the plugin to the local machine, then install thereby bypassing 
whatever odd network connection quirk is widely reported.

Subject: [android-beginners] Problem with Ecplise android plugin install


Hello,

I'm running Eclipse Ganymede Version: 3.4.0 Build id: I20080617-2000,
under Linux OpenSuse 11.1 (KDE).

I've installed Eclipse with from OpenSuse Open source repository. To
achieve Android SDK installation, I tried to follow the official
tutorial: http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r3/installing.html.

1 ) I've downloaded the android SDK :
http://developer.android.com/sdk/download.html?v=android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3.zip

2 ) I unzipped the Androis SDK in the directory:

/home/username/workspace/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3

3 ) I've edited .bashrc  : /home/username/.bashrc:

Adding the PATH variable:

test -s ~/.alias  . ~/.alias || true
export PATH=${PATH}:/home/username/workspace/android-sdk-
linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools

4 ) After reboot, I try to use (under Eclipse) Help  Software
Updates:

I got the error messsage Cannot launch the Update UI.This
installation has not been configured properly for Software Updates.,
so after a bit of googling I follow edited the ecplise prefrences
(under Window  Preferences  General Capabilities) and check the
classic update box.

New entry (also called Software Updates) appeared in my Help menu,
giving access to sub-menus :

- Find and install
- Manage Configuration

5 ) I choosed Find and install  Search for new features to install
 New remote site

Name: Android SDK Plugin
URL: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

6 ) After validation, The update showed features to install list :

Android SDK Plugin
-- Developer tools
-- Android development Tools 0.9.1.v200905011822-1621
-- Android DDMS 0.9.1.v200905011822-1621

When I selected all features I got an error message :

Current configuration contains errors that are not corrected by the
requested operation and more errors would be introduced. See details
for more information.
  - Current configuration problems -
Resulting configuration does not contain the platform.
  - Configuration problems after the operation -
Resulting configuration does not contain the platform.
Android Development Tools (0.9.1.v200905011822-1621) requires plug-
in org.eclipse.gef.

I also tried the http link instead of https but the problem
doesn't seem to be related to network connexion or protocol.

Any Ideas ? Thanks

[android-beginners] FYI - Android LiveCD, VMware

2009-08-22 Thread Tony Su
Awhile back on this group was mentioned at least once whether it was possible 
to launch Android in VMware.

A little over 24 hrs ago the Android LiveCD project released its latest (v.0.3) 
and IMO it looks pretty good in VMware.

http://code.google.com/p/live-android/

Some notes:
- I strongly recommend the torrent download instead of the other options. 
You'll get it faster and as a single ISO. Not sure yet why the other downloads 
require two separate downloads, then joining the files.

- There doesn't seem to be any documentation anywhere on how to access the 
hardware buttons in the emulator, but are implemented as I'm describing... 
Sorry, if you're not using a Windows OS and/or a Windows keyboard, you're SOL...

ESCBack
Left Windows Key   Home
Right Windows Key  Menu
TabGoogle Search

- There seems to still be some issues running the LiveCD or USB emulators 
directly on certain hardware, but it looks like there are no problems running 
in any of the major virtualization environments like VMware, VMware Fusion, 
VirtualBox.

- Latest version looks like it now enables the DHCP client by default. Was a 
big issue with previous versions. In fact, it now just works and reading the 
README isn't as critical anymore.

- Some people seem to have expected the anticipated Chrome OS, but this is 
only the Android mobile OS running on an x86.

Although I haven't yet tried to run any dev application code, I can't see why 
there should be any issue. Just use some TCP/IP solution to transfer the APK to 
the emulator and execute.

[android-beginners] Re: adb - for developer handsets only

2009-07-06 Thread Tony Su

You can run adb against any Android device connected in debugging mode 
(supported on at least the G1).

ADB basically enables a remote console to your device, although technically ADB 
will generally work carriers like T-Mobile may/are putting their own 
restrictions on what you can do from the local console (using ADB or launching 
a console locally on the phone).

So, for instance of the commands you currently list, remount, push and install 
will work but root will not.

BTW - I found that push (and likely pull) only works for small files (a few 
megabytes only). Anything larger than just a few megabytes appears to not only 
lockup but also dump unreadable files thereby requiring a reformat (I was 
trying to push to a SDCARD).

Hello,

Is adb for developer phones only?  I can't tell from the docs --
Android Debug Bridge (adb) is a versatile tool lets you manage the
state of an emulator instance or Android-powered device!.

For instance, if I have a regular phone , could I run ...

adb kill-server
adb root
adb remount
adb push test/test.ttf /system/fonts/
adb install test/test.apk

or do I need a developer phone for this.

Thanks for your reply.

[android-beginners] Re: How to test Sipdroid using an emulator?

2009-06-27 Thread Tony Su
I'm interested in this as well...
 
At least with my experience with Visual Studio, normally you can't import an 
install package unless the IDE (in this case Eclipse) has the ability to 
reverse engineer and extract the source code from the package.
 
I'm also interested in whether Eclipse can be used to debug an Android project, 
so far unless I'm missing something although Eclipse (with the Android plugin) 
can make an APK, because running the APK isn't integrated into Eclipse I'm not 
sure how how the debugger is wired up to the running application.

2009-06-27 Thread Tony Su
I've been looking at this,
There is an Android Mono project, and the Mono runtime is available to end 
Users through Market.
 
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2009/01/compiling-mono-under-android-build.html
 
It works by a kind of Interopt translating C# calls into Java.
 
But, I don't know how useful it is... The author did some kind of fantastic job 
but it's based on Android 1.0 and he hasn't suggested he's willing to do the 
same for Cupcake. Too bad, I don't know who else has accumulated enough 
experience in both Java and Mono to create and maintain something like this.
 
I, for one would consider Mono if it was a viable option.
I would consider it even more strongly if it made calls to Dalvik instead of to 
Java.

First, the PATH to the tools directory is ambiguous in the Windows version of

1.5r2 SDK) one holding the updated versions of files for Cupcake and the other 
holding version 1.1 files.
 
And, the android file doesn't exist in either locaton.

 Hope it's not off-topic asking questions about a specific learning
 resource in this forum...

 Book is the Commonsware book Android Programming Tutorials by Mark
 Murphy.

You are probably better off with the cw-android Google Group:

http://groups.google.com/group/cw-android

 My question is that although the book promises support for Android 1.5
 and beyond some steps in both the Beginning book and the Tutorials seem
 to be very specific to Android 1.1

 For example, the initial step to setup the first tutorial's files is
 supposed to be accomplished by executing the following from a command line


 android create project --target 2 --path ./FirstApp --activity FirstApp
 --package apt.tutorial


 No executable android is installed anywhere I can find, and if it's
 referring to android.bat that's located in the Android 1.1 subfolder of
 the android 1.5 SDK where no PATH variable exists (documentation
 recommends adding the path to the tools directory which one assumes
 should be the android 1.5r2 folder).

mmur...@nc8000:~$ ls /opt/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r2/tools
adb ddms emulator lib sqlite3
android dmtracedump  hierarchyviewer  mksdcardtraceview
apkbuilder  draw9patch   hprof-conv   NOTICE.txt

android is there, second row, left-most column.

The PATH variable is an environment variable, set via the Control Panel in
Windows or via a script like .bashrc in Linux. Instructions for modifying
your PATH can be found on page 4, and that is quoted from the Android
documentation.

Again, the directory you want in your PATH the tools/ directory inside
wherever you put the SDK. On my machines, I put the SDK in /opt (on
Linux), so the directory I have in my PATH is
/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r2/tools.

If you have additional questions, pop over to the cw-android group, and
we'll be happy to help!

[android-beginners] Any reason why Data connection stays open?

Is there a known reason for this? It's curious because this is the first data

[android-beginners] Re: Practical questions

2009-06-14 Thread Tony Su

As a person has used Windows Mobile/CE devices for over 6 years and been 
developing for the mobile platform for over 4 years, I think I can offer some 
perspective...

First, regarding G1 availability, costs and restrictions (since to date 
anything else is largely vaporware or just launching)... Users always can 
choose the grey market (purchasing from a source other than T-Mobile). Today, 
you might be required to purchase for $180 from T-Mobile with a 2 year 
contract, but you can get a phone without a contract for somewhere from 
$210-280(street price). T-Mobile service is required to activate (T-Mobile 
seems to be doing a good job of closing all efforts to jailbreak), and although 
no pre-paid plan is supported, you can get on a month to month contract 
(requires both a voice and a data/messaging plans). So, it might be more 
expensive than pre-paid but not necessarily tremendously moreso unless you 
never plan to use the phone in a normal user way.

Usually, with hardware you get what you pay for. Ever actually get your hands 
on a Sciphone (with its supposedly android-like interface)? You're not 
getting nearly the same thing... Features like slide-out keyboards are 
expensive.

I haven't compared to the iPhone 3GS yet, but earlier models had their warts 
compared to the G1, too... Like lack of support for multi-tasking applications, 
poor camera picture quality. Support for multi-tasking might be desirable but 
it also can be demanding... drawing down power quickly, maxing out resource 
utilization. Whatever model of hardware and software you might want to compare, 
you'll likely find feature advantages or lacking every time. So, it's whatever 
floats your boat which should determine whether you choose an iPhone, 
Blackberry, G1 or anything else.

BTW - That's some trick running J2ME on Windows Mobile. There's only one phone 
that supports that configuration with decent performance(not the one you 
mention) which severely restricts that market (unless performance is not an 
issue).

IMO,
Tony

Hi all,

I have some practical questions.

I might be interested in coding for Android. I have some J2ME programs
that I could port that are very useful.

But I am wondering, why bother? Consider:

1.
Looking at the documentation for Android it seems to me that the
learning curve for working with Android is large.

2.
Looking at the available phones they are all about $500 without a
contract. We're in a Recession and $500 is a lot of money. Compare
that to my 3-inch touch screen Sciphone i68 which was $100 and has
MIDP support.

3.
I don't do contracts. I have heard that Android phones are hobbled by
the requirement that I'd have to have a contract. I use prepaid
exclusively to keep my phone bills down.

4.
No contract means no data plan.

5.
I can get a Windows Mobile phone for $260, called the CECT M88+. It
will run native apps and J2ME. That's half the cost of an Android
phone.

6.
Regular consumers know we're in a recession. They are going to avoid
expensive phones and long contracts more now than ever. Will $500
luxury Android phones take hold? I'm skeptical.

7.
I am not someone who is easily impressed by Google. There is no wow
factor for me in using Android. I'm entirely pragmatic.

Thanks.

[android-beginners] Re: SDK USB driver for Vista SP1 won't install - Solution?

2009-06-03 Thread Tony Su

Update - 
I was attempting to get around T-Mobile's onerous requirement of having to wait 
until the completion of the current billing cycle to upgrade the account to 
support the G1 (preventing communication with Google servers for activation, 
essentially turning the device into a doorstop). 
 
In the end, I just said to hell with trying, and just waited the 3 weeks. I'm 
surprised that this situation exists and after an Internet search has existed 
for a very long time... I don't think Sprint or Verizon has ever been unable to 
upgrade/modify an account on the fly and properly re-calculate billing 
accordingly.
 
After device activation, everything works and Vista SP1 continues to insist on 
using the Microsoft driver, still refusing to recognize the SDK driver (so your 
(2) is apparently incorrect, ADB works fine using the Microsoft driver).

So, it's apparently a T-Mobile restriction closing holes that could potentially 
jailbreak the device.

[android-beginners] SDK USB driver for Vista SP1 won't install - Solution?

2009-05-21 Thread Tony Su
Howdy,

When I connect a G1 to Vista SP1, the phone is automatically recognized and 
Vista's own USB driver (WpdFs.dll and WUDFRd.sys) is installed, but that driver 
doesn't work.

Nothing I try seems to update or change the USB driver to the one supplied by 
the SDK...
Have tried 
uninstalling the device and re-scanning
Updating the driver in the Device Properties

When I try to force updating by manually pointing to the SDK driver, Vista 
says it's not even a driver. Of course, with Vista's improved security I can't 
disable/rename the Microsoft driver (permissions even an Admin can't touch).

Any ideas?

TIA,
Tony

Full deatils on the Vista SP1 driver...
Provider: Microsoft Corporation
File Version: 6.0.60001.18000(longhorn_rtm.080118-1840

[android-beginners] Updated list of app code sources?

2009-04-12 Thread Tony Su
Finally got the ADT installed into Eclipse just now.
Recommend KISS instructions(default steps don't seem to work), I don't know why 
no repository found kept displaying when trying to connect using SSL and also 
pointing to the compressed SDK file, but it finally worked pointing to the web 
source without SSL.
 
So, I'm looking around now at what kind of application snippets and full apps 
there might be to start looking at just about anything...
 
Have found a few scattered references, is there a centralized list or 
recognized sites for code?
 
TIA,
Tony
