[android-developers] MediaPlayer and onSaveInstanceState?
hey folks, to make a long story short, I'm working on an app that plays streaming video content in a VideoView with a MediaController; Im wondering how I can preserve the state of my VideoView across orientation changes, such that opening the keyboard doesn't restart the playback, etc.. I've been messing around with onSaveInstanceState, but Im fairly certain I'm missing something (possibly Parcelized objects?) .. Ideally i think I'd like to save and restore the state of the MediaPlayer, as well as an HttpClient (or at least its cookiejar) ... I suspect this will have to be done with Parcelables, but I don't quite have my head around how those work (and the Notepad example hasn't helped).. any suggestions, or especially code or pseudocode examples, would be greatly apprectiated --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: On stop method
You don't restart your app. Android stops your app for a reason, and it calls onStop to give the app a chance to do some cleanup before being stopped. As soon as the reason for stopping your app has gone, Android will start your app again. Look at the app model in the docs, it tells you everything.

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL context = how to load non power of two dimension bitmap?
Hi, The G1 h/w doesn't support non power-of-two texture (NPOT) dimensions. However, Android's software implementation does. In order to know if a particular opengl context supports NPOT, you need to check for the npot extension string. When the extension is not available, you have to use a bigger texture that has POT dimensions (or use several smaller textures, but that's harder). An easy way to deal with it, is to set a texture matrix which scales the texture coordinates in pixels (glScalef(1/w, 1/h, 1)), which allows you to specify the texcoord in texels. Of course, if you want to use the texture with GL_REPEAT wrapping mode, you're out of luck -- well, things get harder, you need to scale your original image to POT dimensions, and then use appropriate down- scaling to map repeat it (exercise left to the reader [hint: use texture transformations to simplify your life]). Also, for 2D rendering, consider using the draw_texture extension (glDrawTexi), it's available on most h/w implementations and is usually faster than using geometry. Information about OpenGL and OpenGL ES extensions is available on the intertubes. Good luck!

[android-developers] Re: Dialog with No Title
I guess it depends on how you define dialog. As it stands in the SDK now a dialog can be used for almost anything, for example you can display an error to the user or even get input from the user. The issue mainly revolves around spacing, especilly when the device is in Landscape. 1) If I were to show an AlertDialog, of course I want to have a title (something like Error: Nothing Found...). 2) But, if I am attempting to use the dialog to retrieve user input like for example user information (address, email, phone, etc etc) there is no need for the title. Using the EditText's hint text, I can simply add Email Address as a hint, and the title becomes redundant. Again, this is really a question of screen real estate and the title just takes up too much room on a device in Landscape mode. Any ideas besides writing an activity that looks like a dialog?

This is great news for us folks in the non T-Mobile regions and will help provide a level playing field for ADC II participants. ( In my own case I decided not to wait as no news of DEV phones was forthcoming before now, so I took the *big* gamble of procuring a US G1 privately through ebay - for a premium. I managed to get it working after purchasing an unlock code and configuring the GPRS setting to work with Optus 3G in Australia. ) If the DEV phone is to automatically receive 'OTA' updates - without warning like the G1 - I would suggest that people double check their local mobile data plans to ensure they don't get slugged for excessive download charges.

[android-developers] Alternative to category LAUNCHER for plugins?
Our users complain about the following: You're getting hammered by negative comments on oi voice notes because after install it gives launch error. I suggest creating an idiot window on launch that says this app is an addon, and to use within other oi products. We provide a plug-in (addon, extension,..) for our shopping list application that is called voice notes, which should only appear in the menu of shopping list. We do not want that plugin to be listed in the list of all applications (as we plan to have more add-ons in the future), so we did not specify the android.intent.category.LAUNCHER, just the android.intent.category.ALTERNATIVE. How can we provide an activity that is launched by the Android installer after installation (to display a warning that this has to be used from within shopping list), but still does not show up in the list of all applications? Hm, thinking about it, is it as simple as providing an intent android.intent.action.MAIN without the category LAUNCHER? Is this what the installer would call?

[android-developers] Weird Map Problem (Controlling same map)
I have a weird issue, which is probably easily solvable - but the cause is alluding me. I have two activities, one is created as an intent from the first activity. Each activity features a MapView. My problem is that if I move the first map (i.e. navigate to a paricular city) the second map, when viewed, has also moved to display the same place I navigated to in the first map. Reversly, if I move the second map to another place when I go back to the first map, this too, has changed to display the same location I navigated to on the second map... confused? ;) Basically I have two MapViews with different id values but they act as if they are the same map. I need two distinct, individual maps that do not control one another. Am I missing something obvious or do I have to add something to stop them doing this?

[android-developers] Dynamic class loading
I have an application I want to port from Symbian OS to Android (Well, maybe port is a bit of a strong word, since they would hardly share a line of code in common. Rewrite maybe.) However, it really needs to implement dynamically loaded modules to be of any use. In Java proper, this would be trivial but as far as I can tell with Dalvik this is impossible. I've read this: http://blog.luminis.nl/roller/luminis/entry/osgi_on_google_android_using which describes a hack to do it, but that of course is totally impractical for production purposes. Am I missing a way to do this, or is it simply impossible at the present time?

[android-developers] Hidden Contacts
Did anyone else find that when you dump all your contacts to a ListView, you see hidden contacts that don't show up in your regular contact list under the Dialer? I found nameless contacts, contacts with names but no numbers. When I returned their email address, I found emails to sale- number@craigslist.org, as well as one for a Dana Thompson and a TJ Brown. These are people I don't know, and never new existed. And oddly enough, the Dana Thompson individual is some CPA in Maryland (see: http://danathompsoncpa.com/Contact_Us.htm). Now, I got my phone new, in a sealed box, from a just opened box shipped to the T-Mobile store where I picked it up. I'm wondering if they are part of the image used to make the phone? It's very odd. Here's the code I used to return the contacts: final Uri data = Uri.parse(content://contacts/people/); final Cursor c = this.managedQuery(data, null, null, null, null); String[] from = new String[] {People.NUMBER, People.NAME}; int[] to = new int[] {R.id.itemNumber, R.id.itemName}; SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.listitemlayout, c, from, to); ListView lv = (ListView)this.findViewById (R.id.contactListView); lv.setAdapter(adapter); Anyone else getting weird results?

[android-developers] Re: Eclipse Error while adding ddms
The bottom line for all this if that you never really needed to build the Eclipse plugin or DDMS yourself. You could just have used the one from the Android 1.0 SDK r1 or r2 (in the tools directory). As it is right now, the SDK tools work the same as the ones from git. As Xav stated, the only reason one would want to rebuild the plugin or the standalone DDMS is to make changes to them.

-The emulator doesn't emulator wifi, you'll have to use a real device for that. -In the current version of Android, you'll find that the wifi support is mostly suitable for infrastructure-based connections (i.e. communicating through an access point), not for ad-hoc connections. You can just blindly establish network connections, and they'll be routed over wifi if that's available, or you can use the ConnectivityManager http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/net/ConnectivityManager.html if you want some finer-grained controls over when wifi is available.

[android-developers] Dialog Restore
Hi all, My custom dialogs won't restore upon orientation|keyboard change, for example, if my dialog is visible and the device is changed from Portrait to Landscape when the activity is restarted the dialog is not shown. This ONLY happens with my custom dialogs, all the Android API dialogs perform as expected (DatePicker, TimePicker, etc.). Now, I am pretty sure I need to manage the dialog state, but I just can't figure out how.

[android-developers] Kalman Filters for the GPS data
hi all, so i understand that there are lots of smart people at google, so maybe maybe this is already in shipping libraries :) My guess is that the GPS data coming back from the my android is just raw, unmassaged data as it gets it from whatever chipset the T1 is using (just like what happens in the emulator :). As people I'm sure realize, GPS data is really really noisy, especially when the signal is weak, etc. I've been googling around and it seems like Kalman filters for GPS would be a good way of doing curve fitting so that outliers and other nasties would get smoothed out. Does anybody know of either this filter, or some other GPS filtering mechanism that are either available through the API's, or elsewhere?

What on earth is Formatter doing that takes 2 orders of magnitude more time? Something's really out of whack. Interesting tidbit2: per Mark's suggestion, I implemented the HTTP post using both HttpURLConnection and DefaultHttpClient mechanisms. The DefaultHttpClient method was about 5-10x *slower* than HttpURLConnection for identical data.

Just came across this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2918876 I haven't tested it yet but several others have. Unfortunately it's not signed and so to use it we must switch vista into Test mode which requires a reboot but for those of you who only have Vista 64 like me, this is a lifesaver to be able to debug on the device at all. Being that this is an open, derivative work, I believe google could take this port in as their own and release a signed version (hint hint). --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Eclipse Error while adding ddms
Yes,Ralf, actually i got confused with documentation at 2 different places. Thanks Steve On Sun, Dec 7, 2008 at 11:39 PM, Ralf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The bottom line for all this if that you never really needed to build the Eclipse plugin or DDMS yourself. You could just have used the one from the Android 1.0 SDK r1 or r2 (in the tools directory). As it is right now, the SDK tools work the same as the ones from git. As Xav stated, the only reason one would want to rebuild the plugin or the standalone DDMS is to make changes to them.

The only reason you would want to add the ddms plugin source code to Eclipse is if you want to work on the plugin itself. To develop/debug application, using the standalone DDMS or _installing_ the plugin inside eclipse is enough.

Am usign the full source code downloaded from source.android.com...(not this one http://code.google.com/android/download_list.html -Linux one). I assume ADT plugin is used in such case , where we debug as Android Application?? Here i try to debug the full source tree running DDMS on another terminal (standalone!) So i assumed adding the com.**.ddms in workspace will solve the problem !! If you can run Eclipse with the ADT plugin, you don't need to run the standalone DDMS. Go to the DDMS perspective in Eclipse, and select your running application in the Device view, and then select to port 8700 On the other side i have tried this as well, but it needs to set SDKtools location and all So am kinda lost now - (debugging IM application).. My workspace looks like this now FYR ( http://i35.tinypic.com/5d1ehi.png) or me again wrong? Thanks and sorry for the trouble Steve On Sat, Dec 6, 2008 at 11:01 PM, Xavier Ducrohet [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I want to debug an android application built with the SDK say (IM).. I think my understanding also wrong (sorry for being noobish),let me summarize the steps needed for debugging... 1.Latest source code compiled succesfully with a working emulator. 2.ddms plugin added in eclipse. 3.lauch DDMS and emulator in separate terminals !! ? 4.connect using 8700 port (*considering my break point is in ImApp.java !!!) There is a big confusion on what step 2 is. From the beginning we helped you open and compile the _source_code_ for the adt/ddms plug-ins. What you needed was to _install_ the plugin (which is called ADT but includes DDMS as well). See instruction here: http://code.google.com/android/intro/installing.html#installingplugin If you can run Eclipse with the ADT plugin, you don't need to run the standalone DDMS. Go to the DDMS perspective in Eclipse, and select your running application in the Device view, and then select to port 8700. Now, I do not know why you can't seem to run the standalone DDMS. It looks like your linux installation is weird. Xav --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Application crashing
You application is using too much memory. For bitmaps, it doesn't really matter how big they are when compressed, it's really the decompressed size that matters. 300kB each is a lot.

[android-developers] Android Market HTTP Links?
Hi, Is it possible to link from a webpage to the Android Market? That is, can I place a link on our company website which if clicked from an Android mobile device it would automagically open the Android Market, bringing the user to that particular app?

[android-developers] Re: Android Market HTTP Links?
I don't think there is a way of doing it which will work well with people visiting your site from non-Android devices (e.g. browsing from a desktop OS). You could always list at one of the other app markets (such as AndAppStore) which provide http URLs which work on all browsers.
