[android-developers] Re: How to control a sound notification duration?

2008-12-13 Thread elDoudou

Thank you for the information.

I was mislead because the Android built-in ring tones under 'system/
media/audio/ringtones' seem to loop when played. Yes, the idea of
scheduling an alert for cancelling the notification is a solution, if
the sound is looping.

[android-developers] A notification sound taken from the Android .apk

2008-12-13 Thread elDoudou

Hello.

I can't find in the API nor in this discussion group a way to attach a
sound which is present in my Android application 'res/raw' folder, to
a notification. Is it feasible? Since the Nofitication.sound
attribute is a URI, the problem can be thought in terms of finding a
way to turn an Android application raw resource into a valid URI, I
guess.

Thank you for your support.

[android-developers] Re: continuously polling webserver for updates.

2008-12-13 Thread Charlie Collins

Yes, many Android applications use the network for data, it is very
common.  I have several that do so, and that includes binary data
(images).

For the upcoming Manning book Unlocking Android I wrote a
NetworkExplorer sample app that does a bunch of networking stuff and
demonstrates various approaches.  All the sample apps are hosted on
Google Code, so you can grab the apps and see some examples without
having ot buy the book (the book rocks too, but that's not the point
here ;)).

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

I find the HttpRequestHelper there, which uses HttpClient (and does
the request in a separate thread with a callback for you), to be
pretty handy:
http://unlocking-android.googlecode.com/svn/chapter6/trunk/NetworkExplorer/src/com/msi/manning/network/data/HTTPRequestHelper.java.
They key is to combine Android Handler and HttpClient
ResponseHandler and run your requests outside of the UI thread and
respond to callbacks.

In that example app I don't specifically have JSON going on, as I was
focusing more on the networking itself (HTTP, HTTPS, basic
authentication, Google ClientLogin token, etc) - but I do make calls
to the del.icio.us REST-like API (XML), and a few other things. If I
were rolling it all from scratch (not talking to del.icio.us, but
talking to my own server), I would probably use JSON.

You can set an image from the network onto your view as a bitmap.
This is a very crude example (you should cache it if you get it once,
not just do this every time, and it's better to use HttpClient to get
the data), but you get the idea:
URL url = new URL(url string here);
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
conn.connect();
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream
());
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
bis.close();
ReviewDetail.this.reviewImage.setImageBitmap(bm);

As for running a Service all the time, that's generally discouraged.
It's Ok to run the Service while your app is running, to poll data for
your app, but after your app is shut down you should shut the Service
down too in 98% of cases (especially if it's a heavyweight thing that
is pulling network data).  See Dianne Hackborn's comments on this
thread: 
http://groups.google.pl/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/fa2848e31636af70.

I admit that I do have a few apps where a Service just runs all the
time (start at BOOT_COMPLETED and never get killed - like
WeatherReporter in the book samples), and they pull some minimal data
on a non aggressive schedule (every hour say), but you have to be
really careful with those. I guess the consensus is that light long
running services are needed in some cases, but the user should be
given the option of whether or not they want them running (make it an
option, tell the user, don't just make it stealthy).

 Thanks Charlie,

 I already have some experience of HttpClient, so it wouldn't be difficult.

 JSON: Yes, it will be easier and lightweight in comparision to XML and can
 replace XML.

 Data: Is it possible to host images on the server and still display on
 views, say imageview ?

 Again, I just want to know, if any one is using the similar technique for
 communication between android app and web application. There are lots of
 social networking apps, I think they all must be relying on the similar
 architecture.

 Again, my app need to get updates frequently. that is, a service needs to be
 running in background all the time, which polls server for say every minitue
 for updates, and gets data in the form of JSON or XML.

 Any comments on this type of architecture? is it fine to poll so frequently.
 (Actually app needs semi-realtime data from the server )

 Thanks

 updates.

 Communication: yes, HttpClient is the best option - you can also use
 plain java.net calls, but HttpClient is a lot easier and handles all
 the heavy lifting for you.

 Data: I would say use JSON if you can control the server side. Make a
 REST API on the server and return JSON. Then parse the JSON in
 Android, it's easy, Android has built in support for JSON (and then
 your API would also be usable outside of Android, if need be).  The
 other alternative is XML, yes, Android supports that pretty well too,
 just JSON is smaller. As for binary data (images), that's tougher for
 both JSON and XML, but can be done by encoding/serializing to base64.
 That's gonna be slow though.  Maybe you could host the images on the
 server and just use pointers to the URLs in your app (that has
 downsides too, but if you don't have a lot of them, and it's already a
 web focused app that has to be online. . . . .).

[android-developers] Blending between views

2008-12-13 Thread Steff

Hi

I have a layout with two fullscreen views on top of each other. The
bottom view just shows a .png picture. The top view shows some OpenGL
rendered graphics. When some translucent objects on the top view moves
over a non-black area of the bottom view, blending is real bad
- example1: blue in bottom view and translucent yellow/red (fire) in
top view, turns out to be shiny green!?!)
- example2: gray in bottom view and translucent yellow/red (fire) in
top view, also turns out to be shiny green!?!)
How can I improve???
Blending internally in the top view (OpenGL) works fine.

Selected code:

Bottom view:
Fields
  private Bitmap mBackgroundImage;
  private SurfaceHolder mSurfaceHolder;
In view constructor:
  mSurfaceHolder = getHolder();
  mBackgroundImage = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res,
R.drawable.mypic);
In doDraw
  Canvas c = mSurfaceHolder.lockCanvas(null);
  c.drawBitmap(mBackgroundImage, 0, 0, null);

Top view:
Fields
  EGL10 mEgl;
  EGLDisplay mEglDisplay;
  EGLSurface mEglSurface;
  EGLConfig mEglConfig;
  EGLContext mEglContext;
Initializing:
  int[] configSpec = {

[android-developers] Android Developers' Unlocked G1 Phone - Pictures and description of what is in the box

2008-12-13 Thread Edmon

I just wanted to share images and description of what is really
unlocked G1 phone.

I got mine two days ago, so I took few pictures. I was somehow
unpleasantly surprised how barebones the
kit is and how the whole ordering process through Brightstar feels
like you are ordering from a mompop electronics shop.

Here is the entry from my blog showing unlocked G1:

JF wrote an article up with pics (and he added the kb pics, since it is

not-quite-side-by-side comparison of the G1 he had with the ADP1 he has :)

[android-developers] Application icon still appears in the Android menu after uninstalling the application.

2008-12-13 Thread code_android_festival_way

Hello!

I got several feedback messages from users of my application that
after uninstalling it the application icon still appears in the
Android menu.

Could someone please help me finding the reason for that behaviour? Is
it something in the Manifest?

In addtition it would be interesting for me if there is a possibility
to define in the Manifest that the application will clear its
preferences before it gets upgraded from the market to the next
release of the application.

I'm looking forward reading your answers.

[android-developers] Re: How to control a sound notification duration?

2008-12-13 Thread Dave Sparks

Some of the ringtones contain special metadata to make them loop.
These sounds will play forever and aren't appropriate for
notifications. Unless you want really annoy your users. :)

The notifications directory has sounds that don't loop.

On Dec 13, 12:02 am, elDoudou the.edouard.merc...@gmail.com wrote:
 Thank you for the information.

 I was mislead because the Android built-in ring tones under 'system/
 media/audio/ringtones' seem to loop when played. Yes, the idea of
 scheduling an alert for cancelling the notification is a solution, if
 the sound is looping.

[android-developers] Re: Android Dev Phone - shipping to Canada?

2008-12-13 Thread Matt Zukowski

The shipping charge is insane. I can't believe bright star is charging
this amount with a straight face.

I'm also not particularly impressed with that you don't see the
shipping charge until the very end, after you've already entered your
credit card info (and signed up for the Android Marketplace dev
program). Considering the shipping charge approaches the cost of the
actual product, you'd think the total cost would be shown at some
point prior to the very last step in the order process.

I think this may be the last straw for me... I was looking forward to
developing for Android, but I've pretty much run out of excuses and
may end up buying and developing for the iPhone instead.

[android-developers] Re: Android Dev Phone 1™

2008-12-13 Thread Doug Sims
I ordered mine on December 10 with regular ground shipping to Memphis.  My
credit card was charged on Dec 11 (by Gotta Go Blue.)  I've called the
Brightstarcorp number repeatedly since then and finally got through today.
I spoke with Dana  who was, as someone else in this thread mentioned,
absolutely the nicest and most pleasant customer service person you might
wish for.  She said my order was still in process and hadn't been shipped
yet.  Apparently she's the only customer service person working on this.
I'm a little frustrated by the ordering fulfullment process at Brightstar
but appreciate the information Dana has provided.

Whatever happened to that? I'm planning to write a game for the
Android platform using openGl, and i'm unable to find any
documentation/tutorials for it. Yes, I have looked through the Android
docs (several times and) and even external sources. Some docs that i

You'd need to write an application that uses the camera and then saves

Internal storage is extremely limited, please, please, for the benefit
of end users, only use for storage for data that must be secured and
can't be secured any other way.

that can refer to those icons. I made a help html file and put it in
assets/help/help.html. Now I can load it using file:///android_asset/
help/help.html.

The problem is how do I access the ImageButton icons? Is there a way
for my html file to refer to the resource directory?

I could not find a way, so I thought I'd put the icons in my help
directory. Now they are easy to acces from my help.html. However, I
have trouble referring to them from my code. My src code looks like
this:

ImageButton correctAnswerButton = (ImageButton) findViewById
(R.id.correct_answer);
File imgFile = new File(/android_asset/help/
check_icon.png);
correctAnswerButton.setImageURI(Uri.fromFile(imgFile));

This fails. I presume android_asset only works for WebView. I cannot
find documentation on it anywhere -- I only found out about it from
this group.

Is there a way to load an image from assets? Or better, is there a way
to refer to resources from an html asset?

[android-developers] Re: Keeping a Service Alive

2008-12-13 Thread John Spurlock

Cannot thank you enough for this - exactly what we needed to know.

Using the shell command we found out that our service hosting the
playing mediaplayer was marked with an oom_adj of 2 - and would be
killed after opening several other apps or extended phone idle.

After changing the service to a foreground service using setForeground
(true), it was marked with an oom_adj of 0 or 1 - and stays alive!

Thanks again,
- John

 Do adb shell dumpsys activity to see the current state of the processes
 and your own.  Look at the oom_adj for the processes to see which ones are
 more important (larger is less important = 8 is a background process that
 is okay to kill, 2 is a service process that we try hard not to kill).

 Service processes only start to get killed when there isn't enough memory to
 run any background processes, which should be rare unless a bunch of third
 party applications are all trying to run services.  There can also be some
 cases where the web browser uses so much memory that all of the background
 processes get killed, though I have never seem that result in services being
 killed.

 Making your service more efficient is not going to cause it to be a more
 likely candidate to be killed.

Please please please be sure to stop the service when it is no longer
needed.  For a media player, this generally means only having it in the
running state when it is actively playing music; otherwise it should
  only be
needed when there are clients bound to it.

If you don't stop your services, then the system has to assume it is
  needed
forever and can't remove your process to allow for other things the
  user is
actually doing.  I think this is actually one of our biggest third
  party
application issues, applications that just starts a service and never
  stops
it.  This sucks for the user, and just should not be done.  In fact
  there is
already code in the system to look for services that have been running
  a
long time without others doing things to them to let them be killed,
  but
it's pretty clear we'll need to be even more brutal about this. :(
   (Which
sucks for things that really do want to run for a long time, like a
  media
player, but it's not clear at all to me what to do about them.)

Also, there was a suggestion earlier to try running the service in
  another
process.  Multiple processes is again something to be careful of, and
  to
stay away from unless you really need them -- processes are quite
heavy-weight entities, so shouldn't be thrown around lightly.

 EUREKA! I've figured it out based on some of the documentation I
 missed. For those who also have trouble...

 The docs for ContextWrapper.startService(Intent service) includes the
 following line...
 Using startService() overrides the default service lifetime that is
 managed by bindService(Intent, ServiceConnection, int): it requires
 the service to remain running until stopService(Intent) is called,
 regardless of whether any clients are connected to it.

 This is the trick, simply run startService() before you attempt to
 bind to it! So before, my onCreate contained:
 bindService(new Intent(MDService.class.getName()),
 mConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

 Now this has been replaced by:
Intent i = new Intent(MDService.class.getName());
startService(i);
bindService(i, mConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

 After that change, calling unbindService(mConnection) does NOT
  destroy
 the service :)

 So starting a service by binding it from an activity links the
 service's life-cycle with that of the activity. While starting the
 Service first, gives it it's own lifecycle, and you can still bind to
 it right after. (And you still

How can I distribute custom components which have custom attributes to

(versus xml) which would make it easier to compile the entire
component into a JAR without the need for the host project to define
attributes in XML?  What am I missing?

For example I have a custom component and I want to package it as a
JAR for easy use in projects.  My custom component relies on a custom
attribute that I've defined in res/values/attrs.xml like so:
 declare-styleable name=MyComponent
attr name=startIndex format=integer /
/declare-styleable

Where I get lost is...Does every project that uses my component need
to add/modify it's attrs.xml to have the startIndex definition?

I've been attempting various approaches.  It seems like ultimately
attributes belong to the package namespace - which would cause obvious
problems for the way I'm trying to distribute my component.  Will I
really have to tell all my users to edit their attrs.xml?

Any help is appreciated.

I cleared up my problem with the SQL not closing and creating a leak

When I close it in onDestroy everything works well. Hope that might

[android-developers] Is a SIM Required for Dev 1?

2008-12-13 Thread cyntacks

Hi all,

This may be a dumb question, and it may be more apparent once my Dev 1
phone arrives but... Does the Dev 1 require a SIM card to test the
applications we build? In other words, we won't ever use the phone
outside of the lab (e.g. no phone calls). We just want to upload our
software and be sure it runs properly.

Is this possible?

Kevin

[android-developers] Re: Problem with the sqlite database

2008-12-13 Thread Paul

In order to play nicely with the resources you share with other
applications I think you might want to consider creating your
connection in onCreate, and cleaning it up in onPause.  You mentioned
an issue when you tried that earlier but it might be worth resolving
within your app.  This will keep your connection open to the database
for only the amount of time when your application is actually being
viewed (i think).

A small issue in my emulator in Vista: Either I pressed the red phone

How can it be powered off as the real device?

 Is there something the Android environment looks for in TrueType or

 The TTF files I've created only have a subset of the entire character

  Hi Group!

  I created my own android application using eclipse+ADT. Inside the
  application, there is a class called UniFNativeInterface, it loads
  the library libUniFNativeCode.so and contains a few native
  methods, which means it is simply a wrapper of native features. The
  libray - libUniFNativeCode.so is for the native implementation. Of
  course, before I run my application, I push the lib into to the
  emulator.
  This is scenario one, and everything worked fine.

  Because of my curiosity, I tried to integrate the package
  com.android.unif(where class UniFNativeInterface lives in) into
  the platform, I simply locate the package folder under D:\SourceCode
  \android\mydroid\frameworks\base\core\java\com\android\, to make it a
  part of framework.jar,  and then rebuild everything.
  When I reboot the emulator with the newly - built images, and invoked
  the use of class  UniFNativeInterface, VM crashed with the below
  log:

  .
  D/dalvikvm(  227): Trying to load lib /system/lib/libUniFNativeCode.so
  0x0
  D/dalvikvm(  227): Added shared lib /system/lib/libUniFNativeCode.so
  0x0
  W/dalvikvm(  227): JNI WARNING: JNI method called with exception
  raised
  W/dalvikvm(  227):              in Ljava/lang/Runtime;.nativeLoad
  (Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/ClassLoader;)Z (RegisterNatives)
  W/dalvikvm(  227): Pending exception is:
  I/dalvikvm(  227): Ljava/lang/NoClassDefFoundError;:
  com.android.unif.UniFNativeInterface
  I/dalvikvm(  227):      at java.lang.Runtime.nativeLoad(Native Method)
  I/dalvikvm(  227):      at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary(Runtime.java:380)
  I/dalvikvm(  227):      at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:458)
  I/dalvikvm(  227):      at com.android.unif.UniFNativeInterface.clinit
  (UniFNativeInterface.java:113)
  .

  My code was built into the platform(framework.jar, more precisely)
  successfully, otherwise libUniFNativeCode.so wouldn't be loaded
  (crap...);
  and the library was correctly found;

  I think the problem took place when the native library tried to the
  register native methods to class com.android.unif.UniFNativeInterface,
  but Runtime could not find the definition of that class. However, we
  can see from the log that the package and class name is exactly the
  same as it is supposed to be, then why this happenedI saw there
  are a few usages of JNI in framework, was there anything I missed??

  The only difference I can see of above two scenarios are the
  environment, any idea?

  any suggestions will be appreciated!!! thanks in advance!!!

[android-developers] Receiving Alarms when the program is not running

2008-12-13 Thread moazzamk

Hey all,

I am trying to write a program that sets and alarm and has to display
a text when the alarm goes off . The problem is my program might not
be running when the alarm broadcast is sent so my program keeps
crashing. Is there a way I can code an alarm receiver that can display
an alert even if my program is not running?

Thanks in advance,

Moazzam

Are either of the mac users running on an old powerbook?  Like the
PowerPC (non-intel) powerbooks?  The Android SDK is only works on
Intel-based mac's.  (I would love to see universal binaries for the
mac stuff as well so I can use my PPC mac...)

[android-developers] Re: Custom Components and Custom Attributes

2008-12-13 Thread Dianne Hackborn
Sorry, right now we don't have a way for libraries bundle their own
resources.  This is definitely a big hole that needs to be filled, but I
don't know when that will happen.

On Sat, Dec 13, 2008 at 2:14 PM, tenacious fbeach...@gmail.com wrote:


 How can I distribute custom components which have custom attributes to
 other projects?  Is it possible to define my custom attributes in code
 (versus xml) which would make it easier to compile the entire
 component into a JAR without the need for the host project to define
 attributes in XML?  What am I missing?

 For example I have a custom component and I want to package it as a
 JAR for easy use in projects.  My custom component relies on a custom
 attribute that I've defined in res/values/attrs.xml like so:
 declare-styleable name=MyComponent
attr name=startIndex format=integer /
/declare-styleable

 Where I get lost is...Does every project that uses my component need
 to add/modify it's attrs.xml to have the startIndex definition?

 I've been attempting various approaches.  It seems like ultimately
 attributes belong to the package namespace - which would cause obvious
 problems for the way I'm trying to distribute my component.  Will I
 really have to tell all my users to edit their attrs.xml?

 Any help is appreciated.

You are probably doing stuff in your constructor.  Don't do that, do your
initialization in onCreate().

[android-developers] Is there really no possibility to detect incoming calls with a receiver?

2008-12-13 Thread code_android_festival_way

Hello!

Is there really no possibility to react on incoming calls with the
help of a BroadcastReceiver? I can catch everything except incoming
calls. At the moment I have to rely on a non stop running server
listening for the telephone state with the PhoneStateListener which is
not really great because I have to rely on my service which gets
killed by the system in a lot of situations. (and can't inform the
user about it because onDestroy doesn't get call which is annoying as
well)

I'm looking forward reading your answers. If you can give me a hinte
what I can do about my service solution this would be fine as well. I
am open for everything. :)

Regards!
