Code below creates an Alarm, so far everything is working fine.
But i am a bit lost in the Documentaion how to cancel an Alarm.
I need to cancel only special Alarm(s) depending on
Intent#putExtra(IntentConstants.SELECTED_PRIMARY_KEY,_selectedID);

How can i archive this ?

public static void createRetryAlarm(final int _selectedID, final
Context _context)
{
if (Logging.isLoggingEnabled())
{
Log.d(LOG_TAG, Creating retry alarm for selected with 
id : +
_selectedID);
}
final long now = System.currentTimeMillis();
//
final Intent intent = new Intent(_context,
AlarmBroadcastReciever.class);
intent.putExtra(IntentConstants.SELECTED_PRIMARY_KEY, 
_selectedID);
final int requestID = alarmCounter.incrementAndGet();
final PendingIntent pendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(_context, requestID, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
final AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)
_context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, now +
(AlarmManager.INTERVAL_HALF_HOUR), pendingIntent);
}


Many Thanks,
Jens

[android-developers] Current consensus on whether to use Copy Protect mode when publishing in Market?

2010-04-16 Thread Geefer

Without wishing to start a firestorm, what is the current consensus on
whether or not it is useful to use the Copy Protect setting when
publishing on the Market? What are the pros and cons of doing so?

[android-developers] sdcard and music player app

2010-04-16 Thread Channa

Hi,

I have some doubt with respect to the Music player application.
When I insert the SDcard , MediaScannerService scans the SDcard for
any media content.
When I start the Music player application I can the Aritst/album/songs list etc.
When I remove the SDcard and start the Music player again the
artist/album/songs list is destroyed.
Could anyone tell me about how the artist/album/songs list is destroyed.
Which file/service takes care of this?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks  Regards,
Channa

[android-developers] Google IO Tickets?

2010-04-16 Thread Roger L

I am looking for one or two tickets

I dorked around for WAY too long, and missed out by a week on buying
tickets!
I really would love to go, being a small, poor developer, who needs to
go interface at these things

I have money to pay for the ticket(s) (HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT?!)

Do you have a ticket or two that you cant use?
Help a fellow developer out!

Think about it this way. At least you got a free phone out of the
deal!

Let me know what I can do to go this year!

 You can try: glTexSubImage2D

 of glTexImage2D. Usually this function is the right choice to update
 textures frequently.

 glTexSubImage2D may have the advantage to not require the OpenGL Es memory
 management system, because an existing texture (memory area) gets updated.

 Furthermore some OpenGL ES implementation implicit convert textures to one
 of its internal formats. For example the implementation may convert all
 textures to 565 or  regardless of the format you provide.
 Thus, if you provide textures in an native format the implementation could
 do a plain copy of the data, instead of a more expensive conversion.

I made some Test to terminate the pending Alarms.

I figured out that the API Doc seems to be wrong for Method:

 PendingIntent.getBroadcast(...)

WRONG: requestCode  Private request code for the sender (currently not
used). ---

If you're using another requestCode the Alarm will not be killed!

For testing i just used '0' and out of a sudden it worked for me.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Selling outside the Android Market-- Use Google Checkout to sell direct from website??? SlideMe.Org??

2010-04-16 Thread George | SlideME

Martin,

Your ticket reference is still open but as stated you need to conform to
issuing a proper invoice based on the report we will issue you and not just
a copy and paste in some document of some transactions as you choose to do
so. There is a formal format you need to follow so such an invoice can be
acceptable and a minimum - and you have not received this minimum.

If the developer community prefers for us to remit payout below the $100
minimum, we could come up with a plan to accommodate. Maybe we could remit
pre-payments as deposits, and then await for invoices from developers. Will
need to confirm this first.

The reason, we are requiring invoices from developers, is since SlideME is
invoicing end users and applying sales taxes where applicable, such as VAT
etc, we also need to receive invoices of such expense costs. Otherwise we
will be taxed on the whole amount of the sale as being profit. Thus, we wont
be able to provide such a high payout to developers. Hope this normal
business practice is understood by most developers here. Similarly, you are
expected to invoice your end users from the other stores you use to obey
regulations and apply sales taxes and remit such collected sales taxes to
each local authority. This is where SlideME handles all these complexities
for developers.

In terns of other issues posted in this thread, one needs to keep in mind
when these problems occurred and why. It's very easy for one to post some
negative comments especially when they were in fault and using them against
us today.

Will make sure we consult and update you all to what extent we can reveal
such information without breaching any agreements we have in place, that
will be valuable to developers overall.

Additionally, will come up with some variant models to initiate for
discussions to satisfy any developers concerns. The SlideME discussion
forums will be the place for this.

For my best selling app, I had 10,000 sales through Google Market,

$100. I asked if this was a scam since the vast majority of developers

[android-developers] How to overwrite the default background of List Item in A ListView when the List Item has focus

2010-04-16 Thread waterblood

Hi All,

 I am trying to overwrite the default backgroud color of List item
which is holding the focus in the ListView. As you can see, in Android
Setting Menu, when you scroll through the ListView, the focused
ListItem has a red backgroud to highlight its focus. Does any way to
change the default behavior by highlighting it with other color or
just a bottom red line under this Item.

Any comments are welcome.

[android-developers] glTexImage2D very slow on phones like Nexus one

Hi,
We are developing 2D games. And we found our game works fine except
the snapdragon chips, like Nexus one and Liquid A1. It even runs fine
on G1.

We use GLSurfaceView, and we use glTexImage2D and glTexIsubmage2D to
put on the text and then draw.
The glTexImage2D class take more than 100ms on Nexus one (1024x512 pix
tex). It's very strange, G1 is even faster than this.
If anyone know something about this?

-Code
snip---
gl.glClear(GL10.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | 
GL10.GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);

gl.glTexSubImage2D(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 
0, 0, 0, m_width,
m_height, GL10.GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5, m_byteCanvas);

((GL11Ext)gl).glDrawTexiOES(0, 0, 0,

So the process goes like this:

receiver class name here.
2. Make a entry for uses-permission android:name =
android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS
3. To test on emulator, test by DDMS perspective view.
4. You application will receive SMS while its dead too. in
Onreceive(), read the SMS and do whatever you want. you can also start
your activity from here.

There were reports, albeit old reports (November/December 2009 timeframe)
that having copy protection turned on could cause your app to not be visible
in the market on all devices.  I know of some developers that turned off
copy protection and their apps returned to the market visible to all.  I'm
not sure how things currently are or what peoples experiences have recently
been.

I don't think other apps can access assets that are part of your .apk
directly--you might have to copy it to the sdcard and have the PDF
viewer access it from there

[android-developers] UncaughtExceptionHandler not called ?

Hello,

i use a ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor combined with a ThreadFactory,
their all combined should
cause an unchaught Exception to be logged so that i can see what
happening if any thread is dying in the ThreadPool:

threadPool = new ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor(poolSize, new
ThreadFactory());


My ThreadFactory, also sets a UncaughtExceptionHandler :

public Thread newThread(final Runnable r)
{
final Thread thread = new Thread(r);
thread.setUncaughtExceptionHandler(new ThreadLogger());
final int counter = count.getAndIncrement();
final String name = threadName + counter;
thread.setName(threadName + counter);
if (Logging.isLoggingEnabled())
{
Log.d(LOG_TAG, Thread created : + name);
}
return thread;
}


The ThreadLogger :

public final class ThreadLogger implements
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler
{
private final static String LOG_TAG =
ThreadLogger.class.getSimpleName();

/*
 * (non-Javadoc)
 *
 * @see
 *
java.lang.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler#uncaughtException(java.lang
 * .Thread, java.lang.Throwable)
 */
@Override
public void uncaughtException(final Thread _thread, final Throwable
_ex)
{
Log.e(LOG_TAG, uncaughtException, Name + _thread.getName() + 
prio  + _thread.getPriority(), _ex);
}


But when a RuntimeException is thrown the Handler never get called. Is
this a Bug ?

Best regards,
Jens

Good point, but i still need to know the path to my assets to be able
to copy it don't i? I don't really want to open a Reader and copy it
that way. As a workaround i am now just downloading the file from the

[android-developers] Wifi - Unable to scan for networks

2010-04-16 Thread guru

Hi, in Wifi module, postAttemptScan is used to retry for the scanning.
Below is the section of code. Here
SCAN_MAX_RETRY is 5, if it retry it for 4 times ( as he is doing
below ), then it will display Unable to scan Network and immediately
displays the Scan AP. if it retry it for 5 times, then it will not
display the message and displays the Scan AP.

Whey is this behavior?

mScanRetryCoun = 0;
private void postAttemptScan() {
//onScanningStarted();

if (++mScanRetryCount  SCAN_MAX_RETRY) {
// Just in case, remove previous ones first
removeFutureScans();
mHandler.sendEmptyMessageDelayed(MESSAGE_ATTEMPT_SCAN,
SCAN_RETRY_DELAY_MS);
} else {
// Show an error once we run out of attempts
error(R.string.error_scanning);
onScanningEnded();
}

[android-developers] Re: Current consensus on whether to use Copy Protect mode when publishing in Market?

2010-04-16 Thread String

On Apr 16, 1:42 pm, Justin Giles jtgi...@gmail.com wrote:

 There were reports, albeit old reports (November/December 2009 timeframe)
 that having copy protection turned on could cause your app to not be visible
 in the market on all devices.

This does continue to be the case, apparently due to Google being lax
about adding new devices' fingerprints to the Market database. If
the Market doesn't know about a given device, it won't show copy-
protected apps. Currently, this seems to be the case for the HTC
Desire, and possibly other handsets:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=72687bc93eba9a1bhl=en

IOW, if you turn on copy protection, users of some new devices won't
see your app until Google gets around to updating the database.

On the other side of the coin, copy protection does provide SOME
defense against users pirating your app. It's far from perfect - for
users in the know, it's pretty easy to circumvent. Real app pirates do
this all the time; copy protection is essentially NO protection as
far as they're concerned. But IMO it is sufficient to keep average,
non-technical users from passing out copies to all their friends.

For free apps, I don't see any advantage to copy protection. For paid
apps, it's a judgement call: Enable it and lose some sales to people
who can't see it on the Market, or disable it and lose some sales to
people sharing your app rather than paying for it. It's a lose/lose
situation, but I have no idea which is the lesser of the two evils.
It's your call.

[android-developers] Re: Morphing TextView background images?

2010-04-16 Thread Juan

If you stack the two drawables as ImageViews on top of each other
(possibly using a FrameLayout or RelativeLayout) a Tween Animation
[http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/topics/graphics/2d-
graphics.html#tween-animation] using an alpha transformation should
create the appearance of a cross-fade. One of the caveats is that I
believe this trick will only work if your images are separate
ImageViews and not a background attribute of the TextView.

 I'd like to change the background image of a TextView by morphing it

 I know how to cause the old image to fade out and then immediately
 afterwards have the new image fade in. However, I'm looking for a way
 to cause the fade-out and the fade-in to occur simultaneously.

 I'm sure that this can be done by fiddling with the images outside of
 Android, but what I'm looking for is a way to use nothing more than
 Android's standard animation facilities to implement this morphing
 behavior with any two, standard, PNG background images.

 Is this possible? I haven't been able to find any docs that describe
 how to do this, and so I'm not optimistic that this can be
 accomplished solely via Android animation. But hope springs eternal,
 and so if anyone knows of a way to implement this in Android, I'd very
 much appreciate a pointer to some instructions or examples.

 Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Re: Current consensus on whether to use Copy Protect mode when publishing in Market?

2010-04-16 Thread dadical

Let me share a nightmare with you that I'm still going through now.

I have two apps on the market (screebl lite/pro) that have seen
moderate success in Android Market terms, approaching 80k downloads.
For the pro version, I had never enabled copy protection because of
the problems that had been reported w.r.t. visibility.  Also, I'd
heard reports that the copy protection was fairly easy to break as
well.

As my apps have gained traction, piracy has picked up.  I mean REALLY
picked up.  Over 40% of the installs of my pro version are pirated.
I've heard all of B.S. args about how I shouldn't care because those
people wouldn't have paid anyway, it's free adveretising, they're from
markets that can't pay.  Whatever.

So in a recent release I decided to flip the copy protection switch
on.  I've heard that the visibility issues have been corrected lately.

What a shit storm that released!  Almost immediately my app's active
installs dropped by 4 points, which is the most significant factor in
market ranking.  Then the emails and market comments started to pour
in.  F/c, your app has ruined my phone, I hate you and hope you
die.  Of course it took me a while to even track down the problem.
Devs can't download their own paid apps.

So far here's what I can tell happened:

1. Most installed users got F/Cs when trying to start the app after
install.  New installs seemed to work fine.
2. Problems occured across models and platform versions.
2. Uninstall/reinstall fixed the problem for some.
3. Some users had to do multiple reboots of the phone to get Screebl
working.  After these reboots, the application registry appeared to
get out of whack, for some showing nothing but my app.
4.  My app icon disappeared from many app drawers.
5. Doing an update and turning copy protection off seemed to fix the
problems.

My conclusion is this:  make your mind up before you release.  Google
didn't used to let you change this setting on market, and now I can
see why.  I think they should move back in that direction until they
have time to test this and iron out the defects.  At least give a
warning.

I will just let the whole Google needs to figure the piracy thing
out rant be implied here.

[android-developers] Avoid cache name collisions with webkit

2010-04-16 Thread Brian

I'd like to use my app's cache directory for storing small image files
(80x80 thumbnails) downloaded from the internet, but at the same time
I'm using WebViews which also want to use that area for images.  What
I want to avoid are file name collisions with webkit, so that cached
content between the two uses don't clobber each other.  I could put my
cache files on the SD card exclusively, but I don't want to create a
dependence on hardware that might not be there in all cases.  I would
use CacheManager, but I've heard that it can't be used outside of
WebView.

Is there a general naming structure to webkit-generated cache files?
That would certainly help in avoiding name collisions.

If not, is there another technique that has proven solid for avoiding
this problem?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: OutOfMemory calling MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap

2010-04-16 Thread Streets Of Boston

The 750,000 bytes are the size of the *compressed* JPEG.
A Bitmap instance holds the *raw* color data, not the compressed data.

E.g. if the raw color data has format ARGB_, then each pixel uses
4 bytes: 5MPixel images will use 20MBytes of memory. If the raw color
data has the format RGB_565, then each pixes uses 2 bytes: 5MPixel
images will use 10MBytes of memory. This is what you see.

To load the image for viewing, you don't need more than the screen-
resolution. Use the inSampleSize of the BitmapFractory.Options; set it
to a number larger than 1 (preferably a power of 2).

My point is this: you have a null pointer exception. You showed exactly
which line the exception happens on. In that line there is exactly one
object you are using that could be null - locationMgr.

Therefore, your problem is that locationMgr is null so your task is to step
through your code, using your debugger, and find out why.

[android-developers] java.nio IntBuffer.get perfomance problem

2010-04-16 Thread Ingersol

Hello.

I have an direct buffer
ByteBuffer mScreenBuffer = ByteBuffer.allocateDirect(width*height*4);

I can read him trought
byte[] bytebuf = new byte[width*height*4];
mScreenBuffer.get(bytefuf);
and it will be lightingly fast

Well, now i need array of ints so lets make some changes:

int[] intbuf = new int[width*height];
mScreenBuffer.asIntBuffer().get(intbuf);

oops, here we have a 3-second delay while data will be copied.

Holy shit.
Well, lets see what happens:
(lets see in android\dalvik\libcore\nio\src\main\java\java\nio)

1) ByteBuffer.allocateDirect generate DirectByteBuffer
2) asIntBuffer() generate IntToByteBufferAdapter
3) IntToByteBufferAdapter extends IntBuffer implements DirectBuffer.
DirectBuffer interface doesnt contain anything useful, lets see to
IntBuffer class
and what we see?

IntByffer:
--
  public abstract int get(); --- so it will use DirectByteBuffer's
get() method since they share only one get() method

  public IntBuffer get(int[] dest) {
return get(dest, 0, dest.length);
}

  public IntBuffer get(int[] dest, int off, int len) {
   int length = dest.length;
   if (off  0 || len  0 || (long)len + (long)off  length) {
   throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException();
   }
   if (len  remaining()) {
   throw new BufferUnderflowException();
   }
   for (int i = off; i  off + len; i++) {
   dest[i] = get();
   }
   return this;
   }


It mean my 400x400 int array will produce 160k of DirectByteBuffer's
get() calls

DirectByteBuffer.java
-
   public final byte get() {
if (position == limit) {
throw new BufferUnderflowException();
}
return getBaseAddress().getByte(offset + position++);
}

Seems like there we use a jni call
So it mean 160k of jni calls for one array copy.

Am i somewhere wrong?

[android-developers] onSharedPreferenceChanged() Not Called in Live Wallpaper (WallpaperService) Engine

2010-04-16 Thread shaun

I am experiencing something strange with a Live Wallpaper.  I very
closely followed several examples out there on Live Wallpapers in
regards to shared preference settings (e.g. Android sample app Cube
Live Wallpaper).

The Engine implements
SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener and the pertienent
code in Engine looks like this:

public static final String PREFS_NAME = some-name;

Engine() {
prefs = LiveWallpaperService.this.getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME,
0);
prefs.registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
}

public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences
sharedPreferences, String key) {
  Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), on shared preference
changed);
}

NOTE: I never unregister the Engine instance as a shared prefs
listener.  Although, I did move some things around to onCreate and
onDestroy (added the unregister there) and had no impact as far as I
could tell.


The Settings class extends PreferenceActivity and implements
SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener as well.  And since
that class has little code here is the body:

@Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
 super.onCreate(icicle);
 
getPreferenceManager().setSharedPreferencesName(Engine.PREFS_NAME);
 addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.settings);
 
getPreferenceManager().getSharedPreferences().registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
 }

 @Override
 protected void onDestroy() {
 
getPreferenceManager().getSharedPreferences().unregisterOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
 super.onDestroy();
 }

 public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences
sharedPreferences, String key) {
  Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), on shared preference
changed);
 }


The only thing coming out in the log is from the Settings class for on
shared pref change.  Anyone have any idea why?

In the implementations I've found for Live Wallpaper shared prefs
settings, the Engine constructor either uses the shared preferences or
calls to onSharedPreferenceChanged() directly.  It seems like those
other examples may be experiencing the same thing I described above,
and they worked around it!?!?

I do admit I have not taken the example code from others and tried it
out to see if the Engine onSharedPreferenceChanged() gets called.  I
will do that tonight or this weekend.

tex). It's very strange, G1 is even faster than this.
If anyone know something about this?

gl.glTexSubImage2D(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, 0, 0, m_width,

Re: [android-developers] Re: What does targetSdkVersion do?

2010-04-16 Thread Dianne Hackborn

The camera doesn't use memory (for the most part) that would be accounted
against the app and thus cause you to run out of memory.  It is, however, a
higher megapixel camera, and the resulting bitmaps you are making due to
that in combination with the additional memory needed for higher density
resources could easily account for you using too much memory.

 Diane,

 I try hard not test on the emulator, and have access to the Android
 phones users are using.  This bug happened only on the Droid, and our
 application depends on the Camera and Mic to function.

 More details on the bug here:

 and other threads related to:


 java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget

 Sometimes out of memory errors, especially DEVICE SPECIFIC MEMORY
 ERRORS, are best fixed in the framework, or the specific devices code.

 I can't help debug this issue too much longer either, I'll be off the
 project, and on to other Android applications soon.

  If you don't specify anyDensity, then the system will run your app in
  density compatibility mode on high and low density devices.  You really
 want
  to avoid this, since it can result in some artifacts in the UI such as
 some
  text being clipped.
 
  If you are designing your app to support different screens/densities, I
  highly recommend that you make the target SDk version at least 4, since
 this
  will allow the system to do the correct default configuration to make it
  work correctly.  It also allows various other compatibility features to
 be
  turned off, which we try to document under each API version here:
 
  http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.VERSION_CODES...
 
  As for running out of memory -- it is probably because outside of
  compatibility mode the system is being allowed to pre-scale some of your
  loaded bitmaps to allow them to be drawn faster.  I would guess this is
 just
  a matter of you being close to the memory limit, and this pushing you
 over
  (the high density or large screen devices should always have a higher
 memory
  limit to account for this...  though I don't think the emulator changes
  this, come to think of it, so it could just be an emulator issue).

It's a 2D application, and the contents of the screen (as

Uploading a 512x256 texture each frame may be too much.

Any other ideas how I can speed this up?

   You can try: glTexSubImage2D

   glTexSubImage2D may have the advantage to not require the OpenGL Es memory

   Furthermore some OpenGL ES implementation implicit convert textures to one
   of its internal formats. For example the implementation may convert all
   textures to 565 or  regardless of the format you provide.
   Thus, if you provide textures in an native format the implementation could
   do a plain copy of the data, instead of a more expensive conversion.

   ... But i have no real data available. These are just general advices

Sorry, no idea what to tell you besides maybe override every other lifecycle
function (onStop, onStart, etc) and see what order they're called in, if at
all.

Did you put a breakpoint in onPause when that happens to see what the
callstack is like at that point?

I assume you're not doing anything special in onCreate that would cause this
right (like starting another activity?)

[android-developers] Re: onSharedPreferenceChanged() Not Called in Live Wallpaper (WallpaperService) Engine

2010-04-16 Thread shaun

Well, I tested one of the sample applications (http://code.google.com/
p/androgames-sample/) and both the Engine's and Settings'
onSharedPreferenceChanged() methods are called and with the same
instance of SharedPreferences object.  So, apparently something is
different in my Live Wallpaper.

I went through everything top to bottom and made some small (I'd say
very minor) tweaks to my code/config to further match the example and
still the same results - the Engine's onSharedPreferenceChanged()
method is not called while the Settings' is.

I also noticed that SharedPreferences instance returned in the Engine
constructor (via prefs =
LiveWallpaperService.this.getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME,
0)) is a different object instance than that passed in to
onSharedPreferenceChanged() of the Settings class.  Nowhere do I
create a new instance of SharedPreferences nor do I have any other
code related to shared preferences outside of what is being discussed
here.  So, Android is serving up 2 separate instances of
SharedPreferences for some reason Why?

I am boggled.  Please help me think.

On Apr 16, 11:45 am, shaun shashepp...@gmail.com wrote:
 I am experiencing something strange with a Live Wallpaper.  I very
 closely followed several examples out there on Live Wallpapers in
 regards to shared preference settings (e.g. Android sample app Cube
 Live Wallpaper).

 The Engine implements
 SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener and the pertienent
 code in Engine looks like this:

 public static final String PREFS_NAME = some-name;

 Engine() {
     prefs = LiveWallpaperService.this.getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME,
 0);
     prefs.registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);

 }

 public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences
 sharedPreferences, String key) {
           Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), on shared preference
 changed);

 }

 NOTE: I never unregister the Engine instance as a shared prefs
 listener.  Although, I did move some things around to onCreate and
 onDestroy (added the unregister there) and had no impact as far as I
 could tell.

 The Settings class extends PreferenceActivity and implements
 SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener as well.  And since
 that class has little code here is the body:

     @Override
      protected void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
          super.onCreate(icicle);

 getPreferenceManager().setSharedPreferencesName(Engine.PREFS_NAME);
          addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.settings);

 getPreferenceManager().getSharedPreferences().registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
      }

     �...@override
      protected void onDestroy() {

 getPreferenceManager().getSharedPreferences().unregisterOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
          super.onDestroy();
      }

      public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences
 sharedPreferences, String key) {
           Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), on shared preference
 changed);
      }

 The only thing coming out in the log is from the Settings class for on
 shared pref change.  Anyone have any idea why?

 In the implementations I've found for Live Wallpaper shared prefs
 settings, the Engine constructor either uses the shared preferences or
 calls to onSharedPreferenceChanged() directly.  It seems like those
 other examples may be experiencing the same thing I described above,
 and they worked around it!?!?

 I do admit I have not taken the example code from others and tried it
 out to see if the Engine onSharedPreferenceChanged() gets called.  I
 will do that tonight or this weekend.

[android-developers] Return value for a PendingIntent launched via a Notification

2010-04-16 Thread ssozonoff

Hello,

Is is possible to get back a result intent when launching an Intent
from a Notification?

Similar to the way startActivityForResult() works ?

Thanks,
Serge

Not directly -- there is nothing to receive the result intent.

Whatever the user launches from the Notification, though, can arrange to
broadcast Intents or something to achieve a similar effect.

Did you try passing false?

[android-developers] How to stay backwards and forwards compatible - targetSDKVersion, hdpi, minSDKVersion?

2010-04-16 Thread sandscorpio

Here's my situation:
I have an app that's been compiled using 1.5 SDK and minSdkVersion=3.
Now I want to add 2 icons: one for high density screens like Droid and
another one for low density screens like G1.

For this, I added the high density icon to new directory drawable-hdpi-
v4/. I then compiled using 1.6 sdk and added targetSdkVersion=4 to
the manifest. minSdkVersion is still 3.

This is working in limited testing, but I'm not sure if I have done
everything correctly. I have many questions:
1. By specifying v4 in drawable-hdpi-v4, the icon will not be
displayed to 1.5 or below OS's. But what about users with 2.0 or
higher SDK's? Will they get the non-hdpi icon, since they will have v6
or v7 ?
2. The documentation for targetSdkVersion states, Specifying this
target version allows the platform to disable  compatibility settings
that are not required for the target version (which may otherwise be
turned on in order to maintain forward-compatibility). Does this mean
that my app will not be forward compatible as soon as I specify a
targetSdkVersion? What exactly is being turned off?
3. Even if I leave out the targetSdkVersion=4, the app runs ok. So
do I really need it?
4. Should I be using the latest SDK (2.1) and setting that as the
targetsdkversion and compiling against that? Or some other combination
of targetsdkversion and compiling sdk? I'm not using any API's that
are not in 1.5..
5. Is any of this related to why some of my HTC Eris users have
complained that they can no longer find my app in Market after
upgrading to 2.1?

Thanks a lot for your input!
