Thanks Yahel for ur quick response... Actually what the requirement is like, have to develop one application which returns the Co-ordinates of the mobile in the case of switched off...

[android-developers] How to connect android to Google App Engine
I have spent two days trying to decide on a way to upload and download data to the Google App Engine. Do I use REST or simple HTTP post/get? Do I use JSON or XML? Do I use java or Python. I am thinking probably use python and probably use REST. But which one out there? There are so many to choose from. None seem to work out-of-the-box, but need faffing around with bits of code from here and bits of code from there. And is not clear at the outset what am taking on or what the limitations are.

[android-developers] Re: Do I need openGL or not?
Canvas2D-style APIs are easier to learn than OpenGL in the first place but once you know OpenGL, there are many things it does effortlessly. Antigen is 2D OpenGL and took very little graphics effort. Most of the time was spent tweaking difficulty curves, testing, developing and integrating assets such as graphics, sounds and music and putting in logic for the messages and achievements. Once I had the basic 2D sprite library working in GL, it was cake adding additional stuff, including the particle explosions, power-up auras, animations and text effects. Once you learn how to use atlases and draw quads using parts of them, GL doesn't seem so daunting. It's certainly worth learning if you want to up your game (pardon the pun).

[android-developers] Android refresh StateListDrawable problem
Hi all, I have a strange problem with StateListDrawable or maybe (probably) I'm missing something. I created a test application for it and the same problem occurs. So, this is my StateListDrawable resourse in file test_selection.xml ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? selector xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android item android:state_selected=true shape android:shape=rectangle android:background=#ff corners android:radius=10dp / gradient android:startColor=#ff android:endColor=#ff android:angle=0 / /shape /item item android:state_selected=false shape android:shape=rectangle android:background=#ee corners android:radius=10dp / gradient android:startColor=#ee android:endColor=#ee android:angle=0 / /shape /item /selector It's a very simple selector that draw a red color for selected state and a white rect for the unselected one. My main.xml template is very simple. I simply use a TextView that uses the selection as background. ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android android:orientation=vertical android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent TextView android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:text=@string/ hello android:textSize=30dp android:id=@+id/test_view_example android:background=@drawable/test_selection/ Button android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content android:id=@+id/refresh android:onClick=updateView android:text=refresh/Button /LinearLayout My Activity code is also very simple. public class TestDrawableStateActivity extends Activity { private final static int[] SELECTED_STATE = { android.R.attr.state_selected }; private final static int[] UNSELECTED_STATE = {}; private TextView textView; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.test_view_example); } @Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); // Carichiamo la Drawable if(textView.getBackground().setState(SELECTED_STATE)){ textView.invalidate(); } } public void updateView(View view) { if(textView.getBackground().setState(SELECTED_STATE)){ textView.invalidate(); }; } } When Activity starts I try to set the state of my Drawable (the StateListDrawable) with the value SELECTED. It seems all very simple but the problem is that the state is not shown. If, later, I click a button and execute the method updateView() the state changes. Where is my problem? Where am I wrong?

[android-developers] Re: New to Android and programming
I would go further than that. If the OP has no programming experience, then Java/Android is an almost impossible starting point: 1. The online doco is hopeless. Yes, as you say they all assume a pretty high level knowledge of Java to start with. Worse, for the beginner, is that unlike some other IDEs/environments I won't mention, the class library doco doesn't provide full functioning programs or even code snippets illustrating use. And these are hard and sometimes impossible to find. 2. Teach yourself OO programming? Are you kidding? Teaching yourself Fortran, C, Pascal etc is hard enough, and Java/C#/C++ are that squared. It would be easier to learn C, then jump from there into Java. And Android isn't just Java, its XML as well. Learn all that when you have never written a program in your life? 3. The environment is that much harder and slower to use because of the indirectness of cross-compling and running an emulator. When people first start coding, they are testing changes on a line-by-line basis, and the whole emulator thing is even more of a PITA. I love this stuff, don't get me wrong, and a lot of it is complicated and difficult because it has to be, but I can't think of a more difficult environment to learn programming for the first time than Java/Eclipse/Android.

Are you good at learning quickly on your own? If no to either, probably a good idea to take some time to learn Java on it's own. It has some quirks you need to learn. Android has quirks you need to learn. Depending on your background, learning both those quirks, at the same time, will be an exercise in frustration.

Wonder what I can do to make it up ... Tell them there's cake. I have had the same problem with every update myself.

The problem with null pointers I can also see with my users. I don't understand the above comment about statics either. Uninstalling the app presumably means that app being closed first. The updated version needs to be started by the user, it doesn't automatically replace what was in memory before.

[android-developers] Restoring a GLSurfaceView after closing the foreground activity
Hi! I have an application which uses a GLSurfaceView. From that activity I start the Android's video player. The problem I'm experiencing is that, after I close it, the GLSurfaceView I have behind it is not shown at all, I have a black screen. When I close that activity as well, the GLSurfaceView suddenly appears for an instant and the activity closes. What could be causing this?

Well, the objects are created and serialized by a PHP script, so toy is a fairly accurate description ;) I'll try to shoehorn the PHP class names into the fully qualified Java class name.

[android-developers] Re: New to Android and programming
Teach yourself OO programming? Are you kidding? The only programming class I ever had was one in Fortran, yet I know OO inside and out (literally). I'll agree that I don't get a lot of the UML stuff, but that's more because I can see flaws in it. But that's 40 years of experience. I'll agree that one isn't going to pick up OO in a few weeks, especially not starting out on Android. I would say that one needs at least 6 months of fairly intensive practice with other programming paradigms before advancing to Android. Or contact Tim. ;) On Aug 26, 2:53 am, Peter Webb r.peter.w...@gmail.com wrote: I would go further than that. If the OP has no programming experience, then Java/Android is an almost impossible starting point: 1. The online doco is hopeless. Yes, as you say they all assume a pretty high level knowledge of Java to start with. Worse, for the beginner, is that unlike some other IDEs/environments I won't mention, the class library doco doesn't provide full functioning programs or even code snippets illustrating use. And these are hard and sometimes impossible to find. 2. Teach yourself OO programming? Are you kidding? Teaching yourself Fortran, C, Pascal etc is hard enough, and Java/C#/C++ are that squared. It would be easier to learn C, then jump from there into Java. And Android isn't just Java, its XML as well. Learn all that when you have never written a program in your life? 3. The environment is that much harder and slower to use because of the indirectness of cross-compling and running an emulator. When people first start coding, they are testing changes on a line-by-line basis, and the whole emulator thing is even more of a PITA. I love this stuff, don't get me wrong, and a lot of it is complicated and difficult because it has to be, but I can't think of a more difficult environment to learn programming for the first time than Java/Eclipse/Android.

The updated version needs to be started by the user, it doesn't automatically replace what was in memory before. Agreed, especially since users report the issue continues after a phone reboot. Re-install is the only solution. But it may be related to static data somehow. The null pointer people are reporting is supposed to be set from a static list of predefined objects and I just added this new static data in the last release, which probably explains the surge in problems since last time. It's like the new static data is being corrupted somehow. - TreKing http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

On launch, check if that prefs value exists. if it does, check if value is lower than your versionCode, if it is, user upgraded = show changelog. If there's no prefs entry = show changelog as it is definitely old code which did not store such entry. Afterall store current versionCode so on next launch you won't show changelog as versionCodes would be equal. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

AdMob is hit or miss for a lot of people. Some do well with it, others do not.

[android-developers] Flickering.
I am doing an application-infinitely rotating 3D cylinder in openGl.The speed varies with finger touch but wen i reduce the speed,i can see flickering happening in animation towards right and left.Initialy I thought it is because of the linked list im updating but found out there is no such problem with my linked list .I'm using a thread here for a small delay after each 30 degree rotation drawing.I cant do it widout the thread coz i need a sleep or a delay after each 30 degree drawing,if i remove the thread and implement the code in thread inside my onDraw frame, the curvature rotation itself goes and it appears that images are just left shifting n right shifting coz the sleep is not getting identified in onDraw frame.So i cant implement my logic here widout using thread..so thread is a must in my logic but i guess the flickering is due to my thread...Is the flickering issue during animation because of the thread?please do help me with this flickering issue..dis is d thread part im using in my code. Runnable r1=new Runnable() { //Thread t1=new Thread(r1); //t1.start(); public void run() { //t1.start(); while(true){ if(rotateFlagRight) { mRenderer.rotationFlag = 1; //System.out.println(positive value of dx+dx); for(int i=0;i=30;i++) { mRenderer.mAngleXX= i; if ((dx10) (dx50)) { try { Thread.sleep(100); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx50) (dx100)) { try { Thread.sleep(10); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx100) (dx150)) { try { Thread.sleep(8); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx150) (dx200)) { try { Thread.sleep(7); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx200) (dx250)) { try { Thread.sleep(5); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx250) (dx300)) { try { Thread.sleep(4); } catch (InterruptedException e1) {} } else if ((dx300) (dx350)) { try { Thread.sleep(3); } catch

[android-developers] Sharing code between apps as in Eclipse
I have ten, possibly more, apps I'm developing that all share logic. 50-75% of the logic is the same - perfect for some time of library or code sharing. However, after reading the posts here and trying to share code in Eclipse, I'm not sure that's going to work. I tried going to project - properties - build path - link source and adding the src and gen folders of the project with the shared code and then importing the classes I need. That seems to work in the IDE, but gives an error during runtime: class not found. This seems to be a common error for people attempting this. I am slowly deciding that shared code is not the best approach in this scenario. Android doesn't seem to work well with this type of code sharing. For one thing resources are not packed in libraries, but references (R.whatever) must exist so as not to create errors. This can be designed around, but the effort and headache is probably worse than simply creating multiple copies. What are you thoughts on the topic? My experience seems typical, based on what I've read. Is it? Have you experienced success or failure with sharing code and/or custom libraries? Am I off-base in thinking that multiple code copies will be smoother sailing than fighting the shared code approach? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Licensing server, app cracked.
Is this the guide you are talking about? To ensure the security of your application, particularly for a paid application that uses licensing and/or custom constraints and protections, it's very important to obfuscate your application code. Properly obfuscating your code makes it more difficult for a malicious user to decompile the application's bytecode, modify it — such as by removing the license check — and then recompile it. Several obfuscator programs are available for Android applications, including ProGuard, which also offers code-optimization features. The use of ProGuard or a similar program to obfuscate your code is strongly recommended for all applications that use Android Market Licensing. Is this a guide?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Unserializing objects via the Hessian web protocol leads to ClassNotFoundException
26.08.2010 14:24, Kevin Read ?: I'll try to shoehorn the PHP class names into the fully qualified Java class name. The issue here is that the web service is also used by the iPhone client, where the deserialization is completely custom-built, so I'll have to tread lightly*sighs* I think it's easier to fix it on the client (Android) side. Put all Hessian-izable objects in one package, and make a change in the piece of code you posted earlier to always add the package name. No changes to the PHP side - no worries about breaking the iPhone client. -- Kostya Vasilyev -- WiFi Manager + pretty widget -- http://kmansoft.wordpress.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Gallery widget, focus and selection gone?
Hi there, I'm trying to realize how the focus and selection in the Gallery widget is doing their job. I'm facing weird situations when trying to update information (TextViews and Spinner) upon a selected item in the Gallery. The focus and selection is lost. So, using the resource gallery_item_background will end in showing the unselected background for the current selected image. I have used the .xml that came with the android sdk, and I can't realize how this is happening. I have set setFocusable(false) and setFocusableInTouchMode(false) to all other Views to try out (and true for the Gallery) without any luck. I have also add 'in-situ' debug, that is, a menu that updates differents widgets when onItemSelected() is called. So I can see while using the application how the background resource is applied. When set to 'no update' the obvious thing happens. None of the widgets are updated with new values, and the background resource works as expected. When set to 'manual update' (an update in the listener that do: .setText() on the textview) does work depending the current View that is showing the TextViews (I have a ViewFlipper that display 2 differents Layout of the TextViews). I know that It can be complicated to understand the scenario without the code, but basically, updating the Spinner will always remove the focus from the Gallery (the Spinner was set no-focusable before) and the image resource background will be set as unselected. How can I manage this updates? I also call requestFocus() and requestFocusFromTouch() after the updates are made. I can't realize where is the problem. I have an update that is made by a handler. Happens the same thing. Any idea how should I manage an update to other widgets upon a selection on the Gallery without losing focus or the selected state of the image view?

Re: [android-developers] Android refresh StateListDrawable problem
You are using a custom state that does not map to the built-in state_selected. Instead of doing this, just call setSelected(true/false) on your textView. There's nothing else to do.

I created a test application for it and the same problem occurs.

My main.xml template is very simple. I simply use a TextView that uses the selection as background. ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

It seems all very simple but the problem is that the state is not shown. If, later, I click a button and execute the method updateView() the state changes. Where is my problem? Where am I wrong?

[android-developers] Need help getting app to play sounds
In my class I have an OnTouchEvent and when a certain area is clicked, it will play a sound (Not sure if this is the best way to go about this?). However I have been running into bugs using the MediaPlayer. Sound will double play and then eventually sound will stop completely. I am wondering how to efficiently play 5 sounds. The user will be clicking the screen in different areas and different sounds will be playing. I have the attached code below but it only has the first areasay I add in another area how would I go about changing the media player to play a different sound. @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e) { x = e.getX(); y = e.getY(); if (x = 232 x=287 y=117 y=157) { //PLAY SOUND } return true; } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Need help getting app to play sounds
It depends on what type of audio you want to play... If you're playing short WAV files, maybe you should look at AudioTrack instead of MediaPlayer? MediaPlayer has worked perfectly well for me with MP3s though. Maybe review the MediaPlayer State Diagram if you're having trouble...
