[android-developers] Regarding CTS test apk Signing procedure
Hi
I am trying to develop new cts testcases. After I ran those testcases
by adding them in CTS,
I got the below error.
Permission Denial: starting instrumentation
ComponentInfo{com.android.cts.performance4/
android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner}
from pid=6365, uid=6365 not allowed because package
com.android.cts.performance4 does not have a signature matching the
target com.android.mms
I thought it is something related to signing the newly developed test
apks.
I have the below queries related to signing the cts test apks. I would
be grateful if any one can clear these doubts.
1. What kind of signing should be followed to sign cts test apks if
they have to be build in ubuntu linux.
2. Do we need to get signed our certificate from any Certification
authority
3. Since CTS test apks test other applications, do they need to be
signed with same certificate [used to sign android applications
present in the phone]. If yes , then is it required to specify that
private key in Android manifest file
Thanks,
Pradeep

[android-developers] Re: Low Memory. No More Background Process
1. That's a somewhat common message, but can you actually correlate it to a problem? The message says background processes, and your app is most likely not a background process. What is the exact problem? 2. Are you dealing with bitmaps at all? 3. Do you only see the problem when debugging, or also when you don't have a debugger attached? 4. The obvious one - did you check for memory leaks? -Mike On May 6, 10:47 pm, Sasikumar.S sasikumar.it1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I'm facing a new problem in my app. That is 'Low Memory.

[android-developers] Re: Low Memory. No More Background Process
Let me rephrase my questions. 1. What EXACTLY happens? 2. How does it correlate to the message you're seeing? 3. Leaks can be anywhere, not just in the database. Having static members is an excellent way to create leaks, but there are lots of other potential problems. -Mike On May 7, 12:06 am, Sasikumar.S sasikumar.it1...@gmail.com wrote: I'm not dealing with any bitmaps...

[android-developers] Reading contacts
Hi,
I'm trying to read all the contacts stored in the phone using this
code:
Cursor cursorNumber =
context.getContentResolver().query( Contacts.Phones.CONTENT_URI,
new String[]
{ Contacts.Phones._ID, Contacts.Phones.NAME,
Contacts.Phones.NUMBER }, null, null, null );
but the result seems empty until the moment I sync the contacts with
Google. Is that possible? Is it a limitation of Google Contacts API?

[android-developers] Re: Low Memory. No More Background Process
Judging by the many times the GC kicks in, it sounds like something is
constantly allocating memory.
Did you run your app in the DDMS with the heap debug running?
And again-
1. What exactly is happening?
2. Do you see the same problem with and without debugger attached?
3. What is your app? What's the name, what's the package name?
4. I see a few warnings/errors in the log, are they related to your
app?

[android-developers] BGRA format support
Hi, My hardware expect the pixel format for 32-bit to of BGRA instead of RGBA which android is currently supporting. Can anyone help me how and where to change the code for BGRA pixel format. I changed the format in SurfaceFlinger::createNormalSurfaceLocked function in SurfaceFlinger.cpp. i.e. instead of // format = PIXEL_FORMAT_RGBA_; format = PIXEL_FORMAT_BGRA_; I also changed the format in DisplayHardware.cpp and EGLDisplaySurface.cpp to BGRA format. But this change is not helping me on my target. when i launch a 32-bit application like browser, I see the screen gets dim and no window opens up. I'm working on android 1.6x86.

I changed the format in SurfaceFlinger::createNormalSurfaceLocked function in SurfaceFlinger.cpp. i.e. instead of // format = PIXEL_FORMAT_RGBA_; format = PIXEL_FORMAT_BGRA_; I also changed the format in DisplayHardware.cpp and EGLDisplaySurface.cpp to BGRA format. But this change is not helping me on my target. when i launch a 32-bit application like browser, I see the screen gets dim and no window opens up. I'm working on android 1.6x86.

[android-developers] Application Upgrade Related Questions
Hi , i wanted to ask a question regarding the upgrading of my application. I have tested the following thing. Put the new version of the APK on a server.Open the link of the APK from the mobile browser .The mobile automatically downloads the APK and asks for installation.Once installed , the application has got upgraded. Now can i do this thing programatically ? I want that once the user starts the application , a web service will be called internally which will check that an application upgrade is available. If its available , i want to internally download the APK on the device once the user says Yes. And then it should get installed automatically. I can download a given file from a given server on the device on my SDCard /application folder. How can i invoke an automatic installation procedure? Can i do this programatically ?

Hi Rich, Yes your situation sounds very similar to mine. I can imagine it's a very common requirement.

And are your images only visible through your app or would they appear in your phones stock 'Gallery' app also?

[android-developers] Re: updating a contact in 2.x Contacts API

First of all, I am getting a curser for the Contact at some particular
Id using this:
contactCursor =
getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.Contacts._ID + = ?,
new String[]{id}, null);
Now I need to update the GIVEN_NAME and FAMILY_NAME of this contact.
For that, What Id I have to pass in the withSelection(String,
String[]) method along with Data.CONTACT_ID ?
I have tried by getting RAW_DATA_ID but no success.
Please help me.

Has anyone found any similar issues with the Droid? Any idea what can be done in my program to fix this?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Wrong date in Calendar day layout, Showing Thursday 01-Jan-1970.
Thanks Brion,
After looking into the code found that problem is here in this snippet of
code:
/**
* If the given intent specifies a time (in milliseconds since the
epoch),
* then that time is returned. Otherwise, the current time is returned.
*/
public static final long timeFromIntentInMillis(Intent intent) {
// If the time was specified, then use that. Otherwise, use the
current time.
long millis = intent.getLongExtra(EVENT_BEGIN_TIME, -1);
if (millis == -1) {
millis = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
return millis;
}
The intent.getLongExtra is somtimes retuning zero and this should return
-1 if not able to get correct value of milli second since epoch.
One fix to this can be call System.currentTimeMillis() if it return zero
also (as it calls for -1).
I am still looking root cause of this (why it returns zero somtimes ).
Thanks

int height = this.getMeasuredHeight();
int line_height = this.getLineHeight();

[android-developers] Re: Google should prohibit task killers on Android Market
While I agree that consuming a bunch of memory has an impact -- it means apps have to be killed and restarted more often, for example -- there's no connection to GC. GC is something that happens entirely within your own process, and is not affected by memory usage by other processes. Allocating a bunch of memory in your process will trigger the GC. The fact that somebody else HAS a bunch of memory, but isn't running, will not. Nothing another process does will trigger a GC in the foreground app. On May 4, 10:52 am, Eric F ericfrie...@gmail.com wrote: 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: Google should prohibit task killers on Android Market
The battery power frob is great! But I think it may already be good enough to serve for this purpose. The apps that are consuming the most battery power, and the apps that are consuming the most CPU, are typically the same set. I'm not arguing against your suggestion -- even if they were always the same set, it would be more clear for the users. But we can educate users to look there now for a clue to this information, even if it's not perfect.

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: Why isn’t multi-touch wor king for imagebuttons?
What about using a TouchDelegate to examine the touches first, and
forward them as separate events?
I haven't tried it, or even thought about it for more than two
minutes, but...
On May 4, 10:42 am, niko20 nikolatesl...@yahoo.com wrote:
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] Re: Struggling with Activity/View framework
The Activity may be killed, but the Application will not be. You can hold onto state there. However, it would be best to carefully study the lifecycle and look to minimize how much information you keep there, and ALLOW information to be discarded (or selected information to be kept) when the activity that needs it is killed. Note that simply starting a new activity does NOT guarantee the previous activity is killed, it only allows for it All the tools you need are there for information to persist with the appropriate lifetime. You should also consider persisting state in a database, preferences object, or file, rather than retaining it in memory. There's tradeoffs between memory usage and the cost of reloading data, but reducing memory usage is important in this environment.

Re: [android-developers] Re: updating a contact in 2.x Contacts API
The data structure for contacts is based on three separate tables:
Contacts, RawContacts and Data. A Contact can have multiple RawContacts,
which can have multiple Data rows. Each data row has a mime type that
specifies what kind of data is stored in that row. Contact name is stored
in a row with the mime type StructuredName.CONTENT_TYPE.
So, in order to change the contact name you first need to find the Data row
that contains the name and then update that Data row. The provider will
take care of the rest (e.g. promoting the name to the level of RawContact
and then Contact).
I hope this helps,

[android-developers] Re: Best practices for creating multiple app versions from a single codebase?
I agree with Bob on this, you should be able to build your system for release outside of Eclipse entirely, there should be no dependencies at all with that environment. A good way to set this up is to use a Continuous Integration Server like Hudson to do this. There are even Hudson plugins that allow you to tag releases in CVS and do some nice things. The nice thing about this, you will end up with a clean environment that Bob was talking about, and it also makes it easier to move from one machine to another if need be and helps you document and clean up your build.

[android-developers] Re: Weird OpenGL performance in Nexus one
You are witnessing the fill-boundedness of that chip. Chris's testing was on a G1. It has very different performance characteristics. Canvas is software rendering using a special framebuffer blit which is lightning fast. GL is hardware rendering using a texel shader (even if you don't use it - it's there) and drawing to a framebuffer. Don't assume one will be faster than the other for all cases but do assume that the hardware gpu will probably always win when not testing straight fill-rates. If your test started skewing/scaling/rotating the quads, you'll probably see the gpu pull ahead. If you have to do hardware transformation of lots of verts, you'll definitely see the gpu win.

[android-developers] Re: Confused on android stacking activies
Can you be a bit more descriptive about how you launch application B? You said A. Application A starts a service and launch[e]s another application. But you mean that your application used Activity.startActivity(), so the service has nothing to do with it? In that case, it's expected behavior - startActivity() puts the new Activity on the activity stack, so when that returns, you get back to where you came from, i.e. your own activity. If you don't want that, you need to call finish() after you start the activity. Now if you start the other application using other means, please explain how. -Mike On May 7, 12:27 pm, Sebastián Treu sebastian.t...@gmail.com wrote: Any clues? -- If you want freedom, compile the source.

Define thread-safe. Are you asking if it's possible to decode two bitmaps at the same time? To decode a stream while something else is using the stream? To do it in a worker thread? My take is that it's re-entrant, i.e. you can run it multiple times at the same time in separate threads, but all the objects it uses (the stream, the bitmap) should not be touched by any other thread while the decoding is in progress. If you do run multiple stream decoders at the same time, keep in mind that it can be prohibitively expensive if you are working with big bitmaps. -Mike On May 7, 4:26 am, Agus agus.sant...@gmail.com wrote: Is the BitmapFactory.decodeStream method thread safe? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

The stack is global as an implementation detail, but is organized into tasks that can be moved around in the stack.

[android-developers] How to create a layout like this - multiple scrollable ExpandableListViews in a vertical linearlayout?
Hi, I would really appreciate any insights/pointers regarding creating a layout like this. I have wasted quite a bit of time on this. I want to create a vertical linearlayout which has multiple ExpandableListViews separated by TextViews. - TextView - ExpandableListView - TextView - TextView - ExpandableListView - ExpandableListView I tried the following approaches but each of them has one shortcoming or the other: 1. Add TextView and ExpandableListViews to a linearlayout. The problem with this approach is that LinearLayout by default is unscrollable. Adding the LinearLayout to a ScrollableView creates even more issues because ListViews handle their own scrolling behavior. 2. I tried using a single ExpandableListView to model the above layout but the problem is that setGroupIndicator applies to the entire ExpandableListView, not a specific group.

[android-developers] Re: Determine when application icon is clicked to launch the app
Well, it depends on what you want to do. If you want a callback for the application as a whole. it is not possible. But, may be yes, at the Activity level. In the onResume of an activity, you can try triggering a braodcast receiever. Thanks and Regards.

If Tab2 does not exist, Tab1 can call getParent() to get your TabActivity and have it set up Tab2 with whatever content you want. If Tab2 already exists, I know of no supported way to replace its contents with another activity, short of getting rid of Tab2 and replacing it completely. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Online Training: 21-25 June 2010: http://onlc.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Also, if there´s no way from a notification to bring the same instante that launched it to front, am I able to launch a notification with an empty Intent (just to alert the user that something has happened)?

[android-developers] How to show numeric only pad with big numbers, such as phone type?
Hi all ! I want to use an EditText that allows only numeric decimal values, however, I want the virtual keyboard to display big bumbers, such as when you use a phone input type. Is this possible, or do I have to customize the property? In order to achieve this, what I tried was that I used the android:inputType=phone property in the edittext and used custom java code to validate whether the value the user entered was a decimal value, however some users reported that they do not have the option to enter periods (.) using the phone pad, so this does not allow them to enter numeric decimal values, as needed. Is there a workaround to this situation? Best regards, Juan. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: I've found a way to stop piracy of my apps
I most certainly did NOT use code from that project. I rolled my own, thank you very much. Take a look at that project. It's over 600k. AAL is 36k. I wrote my own implementation of ProtoBuf to pull this off, and that is no small undertaking. I did initially consider using that project, but came to the conclusion fairly quickly that it was just too fat. There is not a single piece of code from that project in AAL.

Figuring out how exactly to do that using Google's binary market protocol in an efficient way (try doing everything that AAL does in a 35 KB library) was a fairly significant dev effort. What's more, balancing license generation, market API security, cross- Android version compatibility, customization, etc., and you've got a nice little chunk of work that we put into this solution. As for pricing, we'll see what the market will support. In our own single app Screebl, we lose about $100/day in revenue to pirated apps, so $50 seems cheap. I know that not all of that $100 will translate into sales, but some percentage will. My point is it shouldn't take long for AAL to pay for itself. Are you kidding me? You used code from this project:http://code.google.com/p/android-market-api/[you even left the same UA spoof], and whats more important you are trying to charge for solution that uses undocuemented google APIs (hence illegal), which not only may change at any time but also using it may be legitimate reason to block app from android market. -- Bart Janusz (Beepstreet) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: I've found a way to stop piracy of my apps
Hello Lee. Regardless of whether anyone purchases AAL, it has been a worthwhile investment for us. It took several days (almost a week) for crackers to decompile Screebl Pro and find a way to circumvent AAL. Typically it takes about 90 secs from the time that we publish to the market for the various warez sites to start tweeting the location of the download. I have a feeling that the open source market api is involved in that scenario for sure. As you've said, AAL is not fail proof, but I continue to improve it, and my latest releases will make it even more challenging to reverse engineer. AAL is a big stumbling block, but a market API alone is not worthy of a Google anti-piracy solution. They will need to do the same as AAL but also go much further to guarantee that apks aren't modified (e.g., cracked). One way to to do this would be to have the platform calculate a hash of the installed apk and validate that against what was purchased on the market. This is going to require deep integration in the platform and the market to kick it in the arse for good. Loving the feedback! On May 7, 6:09 am, Lee lee.wil...@googlemail.com wrote: As an aside, why don't google provide their own official API to allow apps to check with the market whether they've been purchased or not ? Perhaps it's the 'any security which can be conceivably broken is useless' line ?

I don't need 100% security. Lee -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
