[android-developers] Re: In process communication
Hi,
I solved the problem as spachner mentioned. From my point of view it
was easy to understand.
About the second solution I still get not the whole idea. If I have a
connection between the service and the activity. How do they
communicate? Is there an interface between them?
@Dianne: Thanks to point out to the sample code. I think I got the
idea of binding them together. How do the service send an event to the
activity?
From the service is there a possibility to invoke the activity like
mMyActivity.changeState();.
Another point which I was recognizing you are talking about how a
activity knows the service. I'm talking how a service knows an
activity. Because in my design the service should trigger view
changes. The communication is unidirectional.
Thanks in advance

[android-developers] Dynamic view with two layout
Hi @all, I wanted to create an activity where the top of the activity is dynamic and depends on a state change of the application (pressing a button). Here is my xml file: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent android:orientation=vertical android:weightSum=2 LinearLayout android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent android:layout_weight=1 include android:id=@+id/included_main_screen layout=@layout/ main_screen / include android:id=@+id/included_onbuttonclick_screen layout=@layout/onbuttonclick_screen / /LinearLayout LinearLayout android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent android:layout_weight=1 Button ... / /LinearLayout /LinearLayout Both includes are RelativeLayout with id=main_screen or id=onbuttonclick_screen. The idea was to play with VISIBLE and INVISIBLE attributes. But to my surprise the result is a NullPointerException. When I try to load the RelativeLayout (here in the example is a View) in the onCreate method of the activity View mMainScreen = this.findViewById(R.id.main_screen); View mOnButtonClickScreen= this.findViewById(R.id.onbuttonclick_screen); it is always null. The application crashes with a null pointer exception if I press the button and try to get the second xml file into the foreground. mMainScreen.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE); mOnButtonClickScreen.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE); Does anybody see the reason why this can not work? I played around but was not able to get rid of that findViewById returns always a null pointer. The main_screen is shown correctly. First pressing the button leads to the crash - unfortunately! Does anybody have another idea, which is easy to handle? Thank you in advance. T-Droid -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Google should prohibit task killers on Android Market
Example: suchandsuchappcrond_service.. CROND service? This is what the alarm manager is for, doing a repeated task every so often. If you are consuming memory being in the background all the time, when you could simply invoke the alarm_manager to wake you every so often, that is much better for performance and battery. I don't know the corresponding app. But who tells you the service is actually doing something all the time? It might as well be a service that only does some background work whenever it's been triggered by some Intent (including those sent by alarm manager) and then sleeps in the background... I've got similar problems since I respond to media mount/dismount in my audio player. Since peekService returns null in 95% of all cases, no matter whether the service is running or not, I have to forward the information with startService. If no work is necessary, I do nothing and call stopSelf. But now app and service are in memory and people ask me why I start the app when the device is booted (the SD is mounted immediately afterwards, and thus the Intent is broadcast...). I'm afraid as long as people don't understand the difference between running and in memory, task managers as well as the running services information just cause confusion. The fact that devs aren't using the APIs correctly and using background services for EVERYTHING is part of the reason why smart people who have 75% of a clue are telling the tech blog writers that a task killer is a necessary part of the Android experience. I think the main reason is that they just don't get Androids handling and assume it's like Windows, where even the most unnecessary task gets CPU time. Of course badly programmed services make it worse, but that goes even when a task manager is used. If you do too much as response to an alarm manager, the effect is the same. Besides, the service which often slows down the system the most is the media scanner. And there's not much to avoid that... Obviously the solution isn't to eliminate task killers. One possible solution is to contact the authors of the most prominent task killers and get them to try to change their UI to highlight top resource consuming tasks as opposed to emphasizing the kill all button. And what's wrong with resource consuming? I coud cache several MB of data in a non-running service, it wouldn't matter. Android would just kick it if the memory's required, and the service would just reload the data when it's restarted. It's similar with CPU usage. If your service happens to do something in the instance the task killer loads it, it'll be killed, even if it only does that on certain events or once a day? And some services just need to do more than others... Besides, most task managers only show the main application, not the service. So CPU usage alway is 0, and memory usage, as said, doesn't really matter. Another part of the puzzle is educating the iditions, I'm afraid that's pretty hopeless... They can't kill your service if it's not running and is triggered by AlarmManager. With some task managers, they can: it might still be in memory, even if stopped. But it would have no big effect in that case, except onDestroy will never be invoked, which might have bad side effects in some cases. However, they can kill the service if it's actually doing something triggered by AlarmManager, and that'd be the worse case. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Is it possible to start an Activity from a non-context class?
For example, I have an activity that uses a utility class. I would like to be able to start an activity from the utility class and have the activity result sent back to the utility class. The only way I could think of starting the activity was to pass the original activity to the utility class, so that the utility class could use the original activity to start the activity. The problem with this is that the activity is sent to the original activity, rather than the utility class. I also thought of actually making the utility class an activity itself, but that would make using the utility class much more complicated.

Sorry, I've totally missed that posting. Asmack is trunk based, so any javadoc of the latest version should be fine. Trunk based means you'll get smack and smackx in one package. Use e.g. proguard if you have to strip content. The main difference is that trunk smack won't run on Android. You won't be able to login, or to use it. Asmack patches the broken parts, while keeping the functionality (like DNS/SRV lookups). This is the main difference to the earlier smack patches that just strip some code.

[android-developers] Re: Sliding Drawer question
Tommy, Whilst RelativeLayout is quite powerful, and as Mark stated earlier, is what you need for your sliding drawer - especially as you have other elements - you may need to be a little more careful in the order you declare your view elements. If you want your SlidingDrawer to go over the top of all of the other elements, then declare it last in your Relative Layout. Better still, as it appears you may not be used to RelativeLayout yet - just try dropping the SlidingDramer for now (Ctrl-c will comment out the rows in the XML Editor in Eclipse) - put it back in last in your relative layout when you have the rest of your layout where you want it. You need to declare your elements in the correct order. For example, you should declare tvStationName before TideLoadMessage if you want TideLoadMessage to obey android:layout_below=@+id/ tvStationName . I don't think you want to use android:layout_below=@+id/lvReport for your Sliding drawer if you want it to open over your lvReport - I think (not really sure on that). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Google should prohibit task killers on Android Market
Yep the problem is largely associated with services and not just random processes running. That is why the running services UI was introduced. Trouble with that is, it doesn't show the *running* services but the *started* services. Esp. services written for 1.x might just linger around to do some work when required, and not be foreground services, so they can be kicked anytime without trouble. Sure, stopService would've been the better solution in most cases, but these services won't bother, but developers get queries why their service is running all the time. While other services or broadcast receivers might regulary calculate 10-digit prime numbers without being shown... This is why they have such a bad impact on well-behaved applications, and is something that really needs to be addressed in the platform (it is just not right for one application to do this kind of thing to another one).

@Ricardo
my file is AMR-NB formatted (mimetype set as audio/3gp in mediascanner.java
), I can find
{OMX.TI.AMR.encode, audio_encoder.amrnb},
{OMX.TI.AMR.decode, audio_decoder.amrnb},
in platform/hardware/ti/omx/system/src/openmax_il/omx_core/src/OMX_core.c .
so codecs support seem to listed there .
error comes up from LCML_Init () call in OMX_AmrDec_Utils.c . that means
its unable to load codec .

Hi Uander,
You can disable Hardware acceleration by editing this file:
platform/vendor/ti/zoom2/BoardConfig.mk
But I think it's better to find the root cause of the issue, probably the
first step could be to verify if the audio format is actually supported,
take a look at the supported OMX roles (tComponentName):
platform/hardware/ti/omx/system/src/openmax_il/omx_core/src/OMX_core.c
Thanks,

you can delete ./system/etc/01_Vendor_ti_omx.cfg in your file system,
so as to use SW codecs from PVOMX components (picked up by

Thanks for all your replies. But as I said, it was only a sample and not the real layout. So maybe you can help me with the real layout ? I have a list. Each list item have the following layout that is - one picture on the left, centered vertically - one picture on the right, centered vertically - 3 lines of text on the middle, aligned between the edges of the 2 pictures. ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

In particular, pictures are centered vertically. Now, I wan't to use this layout in a listview whose layout is just : ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:orientation=vertical ListView android:id=@+id/list android:layout_height=fill_parent android:layout_width=wrap_content / /LinearLayout This time, pictures are not centered vertically in each row : there are aligned at the top of each row. Why does RelativeLayout render differently when in a ListView and when used as root view of an Activity ? I suppose I could render this with 2 LinearLayout, but as it is used in a list (so, frequently) I just follow Romain's advice to replace those 2 LinearLayout by 1 RelativeLayout. In fact I now use RelativeLayout everywhere. I found that almost all might be done. I just - still find strange (sorry Romain, but I'm not convinced ...) the behavior with my original post - think that sometimes, using a two pass analyze of the layout would be very helpful to be able to use id declared later in the layout. Because actually, we sometimes have to make layout that are not logical with the rendering. For example, for a picture at the bottom with a text line above, I would have to declare first the picture aligned with the bottom of the parent, then declare the textview above the picture instead of declaring them in the order they appear ...

Hi robert, thanks for your answer. It could be a possible way, but i i think is too much for my objective. In my case the camera is static, instead it is the grid that moves around me.

[android-developers] problem in layout alignment
Hi all
I am new in android, i am having few problem in layout alignment.I
have divide the screen into three layout,as header, body and footer.
I am giving the height dynamically for the three layout in java file,
so i need to give 12% of height to header and footer layout, and the
remaining 75% i need to assign height to body layout.
For that i have made the calculation as follow
first i am getting the height and width for the screen. With the help
of the screen height i am getting the 12.5% height for header and
footer layout
WindowManager w = getWindowManager();
Display d = w.getDefaultDisplay();
int totalwidth_screen = d.getWidth();
int totalheight_screen = d.getHeight();
int total_HF_screen = (int) ((12.5/100)*totalheight_screen); # height
for header and footer
int total_body_screen = totalheight_screen - (2*(total_HF_screen))
#height for body
By assigning the width and height for the layout using the above
calculations, iam not getting the footer layout properly.i.e only some
part of the footer is viewable.
I need to assign the height for the layout dynamically, which is not
comming using the above calculation.Can you please suggest me the apt
way of calculation for dynamically assigning the height of the
layout.

[android-developers] Re: Google should prohibit task killers on Android Market
Dianne, thanks for answers. In fact one of the problems with the API that the task killers have been abusing is that it was there for the force stop button in the UI. This is not for killing processes. This is for making everything about the app stop: not just its processes and services, but removing its notifications, removing its alarms, EVERYTHING. This is exactly what I had in my mind. My widget has no chance to toast message Oh, it hurts, I was killed. Please don't do it next time. It just silently stops and looks like it does not work properly.

Hi Uander,
You can disable Hardware acceleration by editing this file:

But I think it's better to find the root cause of the issue, probably the
first step could be to verify if the audio format is actually supported,
take a look at the supported OMX roles (tComponentName):

I don't know.. I couldn't find any info on the QS8250 (snapdragon 1ghz) VRAM. So far I've never run out of vram on any device and I'm loading quite a bit in on some games. Antigen uses: 256x512 32 bit for story start text atlas 256x512 32 bit for main text atlas 256x512 32 bit for level bg front 512x512 16 bit for level bg back 5 256x256 32 bit for characters, shading and faces 7 64x64 32 bit for items several for the HUD and many other smaller ones for glow, particles, etc.. My new 3D game uses (all mipmapped so add 33% more size on): 1024x1024 16 bit for main level texture 512x512 16 bit for level lightmap 4x 512x512 16 bit for characters 3x 256x256 16 bit for weapons 256x512 32 bit for text atlas about 512K-1MB of geometry VBOs 256x256 32 bit for HUD graphics Many smaller 32 bit ones for projectiles and other small things So really there seems to be ample room there. Both of those scenarios load fine on a G1. If you want to write an easy test, write a loop that loads up a 512 32 bit (1MB) texture into VRAM and keep count of how many times it works until gl.glGetError() returns the out of memory error after glTexImage2D.

A maximum of 2 texture units is sufficient for most scenarios where you have a diffuse texture and a lightmap for example.

Customize a listview as:
String[] lastName;
String[] firstName;
int[] ids;
...
public object getItem(int position){
return ids[position];
}
Please don't do this. Maintaining 3 (or more) separate lists where each item
at a given position corresponds to the other items at the same index is just
asking for trouble.
Just have one structure that contains the data you need and have a SINGLE
list of that object type.
Also, having that getItem function return an Object when the array it's
getting its data from is of int type makes no sense.

Of course this will require some conditional code specifically for the Incredible, but at least you may be able to get to the content. It *looks* like it works in my test, but my fixture doesn’t display the image so I’m only 90% sure here. I got the URI using this: Uri contenturi = Images.Media.getContentUri(“phoneStorage”); … where phoneStorage is the volume name. There may be some other code you can use to iterate volume names so that the code isn’t totally Incredible specific. I hope this helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Extending Gallery to not auto-center selected view
I would like to either extend the existing Gallery view or create a new view based on the code for the Gallery view that does not auto- center the selected view. What would be the cleanest/simplest way to go about this? It looks like all the methods of the Gallery view that control the auto-centering of the children are private so extending the class might be problematic. I looked at starting with the code for the Gallery view and the modifying it to give me the desired effect but all the member variables that seem to be available to the Gallery view are NOT available to me to access from my code... :( I would love to hear what others have tried...

RE: [android-developers] Re: Sliding Drawer question
Thank you, I will give this a try and see what happens. -Original Message- From: android-developers@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-develop...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of brucko Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 3:52 AM To: Android Developers Subject: [android-developers] Re: Sliding Drawer question Tommy, Whilst RelativeLayout is quite powerful, and as Mark stated earlier, is what you need for your sliding drawer - especially as you have other elements - you may need to be a little more careful in the order you declare your view elements. If you want your SlidingDrawer to go over the top of all of the other elements, then declare it last in your Relative Layout. Better still, as it appears you may not be used to RelativeLayout yet - just try dropping the SlidingDramer for now (Ctrl-c will comment out the rows in the XML Editor in Eclipse) - put it back in last in your relative layout when you have the rest of your layout where you want it. You need to declare your elements in the correct order. For example, you should declare tvStationName before TideLoadMessage if you want TideLoadMessage to obey android:layout_below=@+id/ tvStationName . I don't think you want to use android:layout_below=@+id/lvReport for your Sliding drawer if you want it to open over your lvReport - I think (not really sure on that). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Hi all
I am new in android, i am having few problem in layout alignment.I
have divide the screen into three layout,as header, body and footer.
I am giving the height dynamically for the three layout in java file,
so i need to give 12% of height to header and footer layout, and the
remaining 75% i need to assign height to body layout.
For that i have made the calculation as follow
first i am getting the height and width for the screen. With the help
of the screen height i am getting the 12.5% height for header and
footer layout
WindowManager w = getWindowManager();
Display d = w.getDefaultDisplay();
int totalwidth_screen = d.getWidth();
int totalheight_screen = d.getHeight();
int total_HF_screen = (int) ((12.5/100)*totalheight_screen); # height
for header and footer
int total_body_screen = totalheight_screen - (2*(total_HF_screen))
#height for body
By assigning the width and height for the layout using the above
calculations, iam not getting the footer layout properly.i.e only some
part of the footer is viewable.
I need to assign the height for the layout dynamically, which is not
comming using the above calculation.Can you please suggest me the apt
way of calculation for dynamically assigning the height of the
layout.

[android-developers] Re: Is it possible to start an Activity from a non-context class?
Yeah thats what I usually do. I'm also a fan of static methods that get passed a Context object. You can also have your application or activities extend an interface, and have your methods expect that interface. The important thing is that your utility code trigger an execution thread, with access to the right context. I have a related question. What are the consequences, and best practices, of starting activities from a non activity context? The documentation says: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#startActivity(android.content.Intent) Note that if this method is being called from outside of an Activity Context, then the Intent must include the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK launch flag. This is because, without being started from an existing Activity, there is no existing task in which to place the new activity and thus it needs to be placed in its own separate task. This seems to work, but I'm betting it has some interaction with http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html android:launchMode but that already confuses me... -MK On May 4, 8:42 am, Timo Prill timo.pr...@googlemail.com wrote: just pass your context over to the utility class via getter/setter or in constructor...

[android-developers] Re: Is it possible to start an Activity from a non-context class?
Yea, I've definitely considered that option. I suppose my whole reason for this is to avoid needing to handle an error from the utility class in each of my activities. My application is one main TabActivity that contains 4 tabs, each being it's own activity. You've made me realize that it might be possible for me to have the activities request authentication from the main TabActivity, which would be responsible for starting the login activity. In which case I would only need the main TabActivity to handle the login activity's response. Does this sound like a logical design?

[android-developers] Re: Why isn’t multi-touch wor king for imagebuttons?
Hi,
No, it's because the android team decided to implement MultiTouch in a
way that it only can be used on one View. For example, ImageButtons
are views. Each ImageButton is a seperate View object. The Android
multitouch does not just map touches to multiple views like that
(which I think it should, but the android team does not). Instead you
end up having to create a View yourself, and drawing the three buttons
yourself, since multitouch comes to a View as additional touch
coordinates. In other words, you can only use multitouch per view.
It can't spread across multiple views. You basically need to create
one big view object that takes up most of the screen and then draw the
buttons yourself, and then handle the multitouch messages passed to
that view.
Unless there is an easier way that I know of, but I dont think there
is. IMO how they implemented multitouch is too hackish, and should
have been transparent to developers by the system automatically
posting messages to each view that was being touched, instead, you
have to rewrite the apps completely to handle it.

For some reason, it doesn't allow you to click multiple buttons at the

[android-developers] Problem updating widget in emulator
Hi,
I have a simple widget that sets up its appearance during the initial
update.
This involves using RemoteViews:
updateViews.setImageViewResource(R.id..., R.drawable);
updateViews.setViewVisibility(R.id..., View.);
The widget's onUpdate method is the usual stuff:
for (int i = 0; i N; i++) {
int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i];
RemoteViews updateViews = buildUpdate(context);
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, updateViews);
}
Somehow, on the emulator, both in 1.6 and 2.1, this code gets called, but
the widget's views never get updated.
The code works fine on the HTC Hero 1.5.
I converted the layout to avoid using AbsoluteLayout and using FrameLayout
instead.
Evrything looks good to me, and still, no updates. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,

On May 3, 11:59 pm, mort m...@sto-helit.de wrote: And what's wrong with resource consuming? I coud cache several MB of data in a non-running service, it wouldn't matter. Android would just kick it if the memory's required, and the service would just reload the data when it's restarted. It's similar with CPU usage. If your service happens to do something in the instance the task killer loads it, it'll be killed, even if it only does that on certain events or once a day? And some services just need to do more than others... Besides, most task managers only show the main application, not the service. So CPU usage alway is 0, and memory usage, as said, doesn't really matter. I don't think it's necessarily right to say there's nothing wrong with consuming a huge amount of memory if you're sleeping, because the low memory killer can just remove you. It's been my experience that the user's experience on the phone is largely correlated with memory and not CPU usage. When I am flipping between activities, stuff feels significantly less responsive as I see the GC run. Also, obviously if an activity has dropped out of memory because of the low memory killer and it needs to be recreated there's going to be slowdown. So for some service that is sleeping, but still in memory consuming a large amount of RAM, you can only make the claim that it is harmless if it doesn't cause extra GC in the foreground apps and also doesn't cause a situation where some activity was killed by the low memory killer instead of the service. Which I don't think is a claim you can make about a resource intensive service that is just sleeping but not stopped. Maybe Dianne could comment on that, maybe I'm wrong. But it seems to me that you can't guarantee that more activities wouldn't be able to fit in memory if the service was actually gone. Also, I didn't know that the application stop caused alarmmanager to unschedule the app, that certainly makes the use of it almost certainly not what the user wants. Perhaps it needs to stay in the API to maintain compatibility, but it can cause a pop up with an extra disclaimer. Kind of like .apk installs can only be initiated and not completed without interaction with the platform. -E -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Where to Check for files/data created in emulator?
Have you tried Eclipse's DDMS perspective and its File Explorer view? You can select in the Devices view the device which you want to explore (emulators are listed there too) and the File Explorer view will show you all accesible files/dirs, including sdcard. You can download/upload using this view's buttons. What user data are you talking about?
