You have not demonstrated that there is a leak. Use heap dumps and MAT
to demonstrate a leak and identify its cause. Do not rely on Cause
GC to do a complete GC, because AFAIK it won't.

[android-developers] What is the best way to Download Images and texts and use them in my app?

2012-09-02 Thread Mohammad Abu Hmead

Dear Developers,

I created an app which load data from server and format it in specific 
format in android UI components, like text view and image view, but the 
loading take long time, i want to know what is the best way to decrease the 
load time and increase the loading speed and the quality of my app, if you 
know a book name or blog or wiki don't hesitate to till me.
If you want to see the developed and published app which I'm talking about, 
please visit

on android market.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm not developing for Android, I'm developing on top of Android.
The framework engineers have more than enough information/reasonable
doubt to investigate this and respond.

Do not rely on Cause
GC to do a complete GC, because AFAIK it won't.

AFAIK, Cause GC reliably shows there is a problem, as the Activity
gets GC'd instantly upon Configuration Change when the ActionBar is
present (Visible or Hidden).

You are welcome to your opinion. My guess is that their opinion will
be akin to my opinion, which is that you have not done sufficiently
rigorous analysis to be worthy of further investigation.

There have been many people on this list (and elsewhere) who have used
similar analysis to point out leaks, only to be found to be wrong

Hence, while it is entirely possible that you are indeed correct, it

I think your fundamentally wrong here. Application developers should
not debug the underlying framework. I even consider it unprofessional
and a waste of resources (unless you are developing for the
framework). I observed what seems to be an important anomaly and I
have made reasonable effort to prove it in the form of a bug report.
So regardless of any speculation of what experts might think, this is
as far as I’m willing to go. You are welcome to apply “rigorous
analysis” and take the credit, if you think there might be merit
here ... given your opinion.

There have been many people on this list (and elsewhere) who have used

Least of my concerns :) As noted above I found a solution that I'm
comfortable with and shared it in detail (which is way more than I got
in any response to any question).
It’s up to the framework guys to decided how to move forward with
this...

[android-developers] Re: GL_POINTS not drawing points

2012-09-02 Thread guich

Hello!

Thanks for answering. Actually, i already know how to draw lines and 
rectangles, but i would like to draw points.

Can you provide me with the calls to the Matrix methods that would achieve 
the 2D projection using screen coordinates for the given surface width and 
height?

I made some tests with just a few points and it looks really strange. For 
example, if i call this:

  coords[0] = 10;
  coords[1] = 10;
  coords[3] = 11; coords[4] = 10;
  
  vertexBuffer.put(coords);
  vertexBuffer.position(0);
  
  GLES20.glVertexAttribPointer(mPositionHandle, 3, GLES20.GL_FLOAT, 
false, 3 * 2, vertexBuffer); // Prepare the triangle coordinate data
  GLES20.glDrawArrays(GLES20.GL_POINTS, 0,2);

Then i get a point at 0,0 and another at 10,10.

If i add a new coordinate at 12,10, i get two points side by side, but if i 
add a new point at 13,10, i get only 1 point again!

thanks.

Re: [android-developers] GL_POINTS not drawing points

2012-09-02 Thread Satya Komatineni

I am on my way to take my kids to the beach. I will look at it a bit closer
next week. May be just give me the simple problem defintion and I will try
to create the program for you and send the zip file.

ButI will try a quick answer

Say you want a 20x20 graph.

Specify your point vertices as (0,0) (1,1,)(5,5) all x,y and specify the z
as 0 if needed.

Then you need to set your camera using

Matrix.setLookAtM(mVMatrix, 0, 0, 0, -15, 0f, 0f, 0f, 0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);

This is saying set your camera on the 'z' axis at -15 and look at the
origin (0,0,0) and make it look up (0,1,0) See the docs for full detail.
This populate your client memory mVMatrix.

then do

//take your width and height of the window and do
float ratio = (float) w / h;
Matrix.frustumM(mProjMatrix, 0, -ratio * 30, ratio * 30, -30 //top,
30//bottom, 3, 7);

Read up on frustum to give it enough height and width and some depth to fit
your coords. You get the projection matrix.

Now do Matrix.Multiply to do

final MVP = projection * mVMarix;

then send your position attributes to the shader and in the shader

gl_position = final MVP * your_position_attribute; //like all matrix
multiplications order is important

Re: [android-developers] What is the best way to Download Images and texts and use them in my app?

You don't really have any choice, there's no speed up the internet method :-).

What you can do is perhaps package the top foods with your app, and
then show up those images before they load from the internet on the
app side. You could also consider storing a bunch of the images
statically at low resolution (e.g., facebook does this for AJAX image
requests, show you a low res version before downloading the high res
one and replacing it).  But the basic idea is to show something silly
until the high res image can load..

This is hard to understand, but if you're asking how often you get paid,
it's about once a month. If you're asking if you can link an account a
month after starting to sell apps, then, no, I think you need an account
set up from the get go.

Re: [android-developers] Re: PNG loading that doesn't premultiply alpha?

2012-09-02 Thread arberg

Hi,

I think it would make sense that either Bitmap could be without 
premultiplied alpha, or GLUtils.texImage2D method could take as parameter 
whether to load with or without premultiplied alpha. Since you say Bitmaps 
will never be without premultiplied alpa, I suggest the latter, plus as you 
suggest a convenience method on the Bitmap, which returns its content in an 
array without premultiplied alpha.

It makes sense to me to add the option to GLUtils.texImage2D since the very 
purpose of the GLUtils class is '... to help bridging OpenGL ES and Android 
APIs.' (javadoc class reference).

Cheers Alex

 This is a big issue to, it's far away from the precission needed for good 
 normal mapping.


 There was a bug in the scaling code that I fixed. a 32 bits image will now 
 always be scaled to another 32 bits image.

2012-09-02 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

Are you on Windows? There, Eclipse assumes that your Java source files use
the default system encoding, which is never UTF-8 and is likely to be
windows-1251 (Cyrillic) or

On Linux, Eclipse uses UTF-8.

There is a way to change the default on a per-file, per-folder,
per-project, and per-workspace (global) basis (right click on a project -
properties).

You might want to either convert all your files to utf-8 and tell Eclipse
about it, or at least check those settings in you two workspaces and ensure
that they're consistent.

 in java file Russian chars for Strings...

 enRu = new HashMapString, String();
 enRu.put(Africa, Африка);

 textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.ru);
 textView.setText(enRu.get(Africa)+
 +getKeyByValue(enRu,Африка));


 well I went in other WORKSPACE and opeded the file.java(with ru char in
 Strings) but non-understandable chars appear for russian unlike old
 workspace that converted java file to utf-8 and appear normally... if work
 only in old workspace, and upload apk in my device and works, means works
 in all phones???

Re: [android-developers] in java file Russian chars for Strings...means works in all phones

2012-09-02 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

Eclipse already defaults to UTF-8 for XML.

The behavior at runtime does not depend on the encoding in Eclipse (you
don't have to use utf-8 in Eclipse to make apps in Russian)

 however 

If your Java source files are in windows-1251 and Eclipse is set up to
assume something else, or the other way around, then those text literals
will not be interpreted correctly at compile time. This will very likely
cause issues at runtime.

And actually, one other thing you can do, is to move those Russian strings
to an Android XML resource file. Since those are assumed by Eclipse to be
UTF-8, they should work regardless of character set settings in Eclipse or
Windows.

[android-developers] Annoying shutter click undermines scientific research.



I am involved in a project to use camera enabled Android devices to 
detect cosmic ray events ( 
http://www.distributedsensorweb.org/wiki/index.php/DECO). It is enjoying 
some modest funding from the American Physics Society and interest from 
Fermi Labs and Standford Univ.


The intent of the app is to run while the phone is plugged in and 
charging, like while the user is sleeping.  As such the shutter sound 
must be defeated.  In fact, even if you were running it on your desk 
while working the shutter sound is so annoying as to inspire you to 
reach for a hammer.


For most phones we have been able to make use of the mechanisms seen in 
previous posts:  mute streams and/or set volume to 0.  However, for a 
recent phone, the LG Optimus Elite (were using low cost Virgin Mobile 
devices as some of the test devices to reduce costs), none of the old 
tricks work:  the shutter sound always plays.  BUT!!!  I can download a 
camera app from the Google Play -- aptly named SilentCamera -- which 
will take pictures, well, silently.  And whatever solution it is 
employing is not using the MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS permission.


I have already burned several hours researching and trying a variety of 
things.  As I've indicated I have tried muting and setting volume to 0 
for all streams, just before the camera.takePicture() call. And have 
tried to do the same in onShutter().  What I have learned is (according 
to the logs) that the camera is playing the shutter sound BEFORE the 
onShutter() call.


Obviously, I am hoping someone on the list can help.

Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] Annoying shutter click undermines scientific research.

Jeff,

In the worst case scenario, you could just disassemble the app and
reverse engineer it...

In the best case scenario you should email the developer and ask him
how he's doing it, citing your research as why you need it (providing
proof you won't rip off his app, presumably)..

[android-developers] ANN: Jekejeke Prolog 0.9.5 (runtime console, google play)

2012-09-02 Thread Jan Burse


Dear All,

This is an out of band release of Jekejeke Prolog. It is
mainly an infrastructure update.

The highlights are:

- Runtime Library (free) I: The Swing version has now a console.

- Runtime Library (free) II: The Android version has now a console.

- Runtime Library (free) III: The Android version is now also
  available on Google Play. But the Development Environment and
  the Minlog Module are currently not on Google Play.

- Minlog Module (Chart Parser, CLP(FD)): There is now an Android version.

Happy coding!

Hi,

Just wondered, am I the only one to encounter this strange behavior.

When placing an EditText inside my activity and setting its

EditText android:text= android:id=@+id/EditText01
android:hint=This is a hint
android:inputType=textPassword
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content/EditText

The hint is displayed with bigger/double spaces between the words.
If I remove the inputType attribute it all goes back to normal.

I couldn't find a known issue regarding this behavior.

BTW- If you wonder why this is important (it isn't that much) try
putting two EditText widgets one below the other and set the inputType
of one of them to textpassword it doesn't look good.

Any comments?

[android-developers] android winusb driver -- odd behavior effecting adb

2012-09-02 Thread Andrew

I am developing an Android app on Windows, and have successfully loaded it 
on probably 10-12 different phone models now. Each time I have used the 
Android win-usb driver supplied with the 
SDKhttp://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html. 
In fact, I have had great success using it even with phones that are not 
listed as applicable devices. 

For the first time, I have run into trouble, and strangely, it is with the 
T-Moblie myTouch -- which *is* listed as one of the supported devices. 
Windows installs the diver fine -- just as with the other phones I have 
used -- but something is not right. ADB does not recognize the device when 
connected -- adb devices returns nothing (no devices connected).

One bit of information that is probably useful is that Device Manager lists 
the myTouch as Android Phone  Android ADB Interface, whereas with the 
phones that work, they instead list as ADB Interface  Mot Composite ADB 
Interface (Motorola Droid, for example).

The driver install process appeared to go exactly the same as with all 
other phones. I guess I can try going and getting the myTouch custom driver 
from T-Mobile, but I hate just trying things without some understanding of 
what is going on -- especially since in this case, as I said, documentation 
says the myTouch is supposed to work with the Google driver in the SDK. 
I've done quite a bit of searching for this issue, and found many posts 
that seem closely related to what I'm experiencing, but nothing that 
recommends something I haven't tried already.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks,
Andrew

[android-developers] Refunding

2012-09-02 Thread alch1731

I am developing an app where there are in-app products and I was testing 
refunding. So I bought the in-app products, refunded it on Google Merchant 
account, and then when I try to rebuy the in-app product, it says You 
already own this item. I have cleared the cache in both apps, but nothing 
has helped. Any Ideas?

Also, I have tried to add more test accounts in the developer console, but 
when attempting to buy in-app products it says The item you have selected 
is not available at this time. Is there a limit of emails you could use 
for test accounts?

[android-developers] Unable to move 3rd party apps to external sd card in Samsung Galaxy S3

I recently purchased Samsung Galaxy S3. i downloaded games and apps from

move any of my 3rd party applications from phone memory to external sd. I 
have checked the application apk file and the install location is set as 
auto, still am not able to move.
 
I have contacted samsung customer support and they updated me that moving 
apps to external sd card is an additional feature provided by samsung and 
the same is not provided to Samsung Galaxy S3. I just wanted to confirm 
that it is a core android feature?

 You cannot do this ever under any circumstance. 

 Unfortunate end of story, even at the firmware level you have no

 Is this in the FAQ for this group?  Perhaps it should be included..

The configuration activity works perfectly, firing the browser to get the 
OAuth token, once the authentication is complete, and the activity is 
finished instead of being led to the home screen to place the widget; the 
activity terminates and i find myself at the browser i used for 
authentication earlier. naturally i'm not able to place the widget on the 
home screen.

please help i'm trying to find a way to dismiss the browser after 
authentication but I'm not able to find a way to do so.

Our target audience would be 2.0, but if the app grows we'll want to port 
to 3.0 / 4.0.
Is it simpler to code in 4.0, then limit functionality and down-port to 
3.0, then 2.0??

And is there an online sim for beta testing, or do we have to hunt-and-peck 
this puppy?

Last, is there an app library for remotely accessing and using Google 
Spreadsheets?

[android-developers] Known problem ? Editing AVD hw properties on Linux, freezes the window

2012-09-02 Thread falcon74

Using latest Android SDK Tools (20.0.3), with Android 2.3.3 (API 10) , on 
Ubuntu Linux 11.10 oneric (x86_64). Only difference from documentated 
procedure is that I am using OpenJDK, instead of Sun/Oracle Java.

Created new AVD, which goes fine, only if I do not try to add certain (or 
in certain order) HW properties s.a. emulated camera, keyboard, GPS, GPU 
etc. Alternatively, if I just create AVD with defaults, and try to edit 
properties, then few properties can be added, but for others, again the 
Edit AVD window stalls/hangs. This is 100% repeatable. Search the list of 
known-issues with some obvious keywords, but that didn't turn up anything, 
although I've seen some really strange issues reported where-in one must 
ensure that focus is removed from the values col. while editing 
hw-properties, but I'm doing none of that.

Note that I can add the hw properties, or edit them by directly editing the 
.ini file for the AVD, but it is the GUI which doesn't work. The exact set 
of hw-parameters or their order, which leads to the stall/hang, isn't very 
clear, but as mentioned above, that I did face the stall/hang while adding 
GPS, GPU, camera, keyboard... although adding the properties like enable 
sound, via GUI did work well.

Should I create a new issue for this ?

Re: [android-developers] Annoying shutter click undermines scientific research.



We've tried this.  The sound is so percussive (I think) that we only get 
a little relief.  Also, it won't work when we release the app to the 
wild as it is intended to be used by people all over the world to build 
a large scale observatory.  Mucking/altering the speaker of the phone 
isn't going to appeal to the widest possible audience.

I am involved in a project to use camera enabled Android devices
to detect cosmic ray events (
http://www.distributedsensorweb.org/wiki/index.php/DECO). It is
enjoying some modest funding from the American Physics Society and

The intent of the app is to run while the phone is plugged in and
charging, like while the user is sleeping.  As such the shutter
sound must be defeated.  In fact, even if you were running it on
your desk while working the shutter sound is so annoying as to
inspire you to reach for a hammer.

For most phones we have been able to make use of the mechanisms
seen in previous posts:  mute streams and/or set volume to 0. 
However, for a recent phone, the LG Optimus Elite (were using low

cost Virgin Mobile devices as some of the test devices to reduce
costs), none of the old tricks work:  the shutter sound always
plays.  BUT!!!  I can download a camera app from the Google Play
-- aptly named SilentCamera -- which will take pictures, well,
silently. And whatever solution it is employing is not using the
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS permission.

I have already burned several hours researching and trying a
variety of things.  As I've indicated I have tried muting and
setting volume to 0 for all streams, just before the
camera.takePicture() call.  And have tried to do the same in
onShutter().  What I have learned is (according to the logs) that
the camera is playing the shutter sound BEFORE the onShutter() call.

Obviously, I am hoping someone on the list can help.

Thanks.

You can contact your local mobile carrier, phone retailer, or
electronics retailer, and buy one. Or purchase a used device (eBay,
craiglist, etc.). There is no loaner program for Android from Google,
though occasionally specific device manufacturers may have a loaner
program.

Re: [android-developers] Path or Canvas changes in API-Level 14 / Problems on Nexus 7

Yes, I am. Still, you mentioning hardware acceleration was what I needed as
I found the answer in your blog
posthttp://android-developers.blogspot.de/2011/03/android-30-hardware-acceleration.html.

Turning off hardware acceleration actually helps. I'm not calling any
methods methods you mentioned there, but I suspect they are called
internally.

If useful for anyone, I already set up a sample
projecthttps://github.com/georgwiese/Path-Test--Android-on Github in which I
describe two situations in which I had those
problems. Basically, it's an empty project except for this CustomView
classhttps://github.com/georgwiese/Path-Test--Android-/blob/master/src/com/example/pathtest/CustomView.javain
which all the work is done.

Thank you for your answer ;)

[android-developers] Suggestions for Data Sync?

2012-09-02 Thread Droob

Hello,
I am an experienced programmer who is just starting to design programs 
in Android.
I'm hoping some one can please help me get started in the right direction 
(unlike I usually do it). 

When a transaction is performed in my app on Device A, I would like to 
transmit data to other devices in a 
'Group' to keep them in sync. 
 
The minimum data per transaction could be a 3 element string array. 
I was thinking about using messaging to accomplish this because of the 
small payload and I can only assume that would be the closest thing to 
realtime notification. I've only read a little about using texts for 
process communications, and that is one area I might like to investigate.

On the other hand, using a central database would offer the benefit of 
being to keep a centralized log of activity and I would prefer to use a 
database in general. 
I am starting out now on trying to find methods of using 'cloud' based data 
store from multiple devices for SQLite. Would I need to buy hosting?

If anyone can please suggest some areas for me to investigate, I'll go do 
some reading.

Thanks for your help

[android-developers] Re: [BluetoothHeadset] Could not receive BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_VENDOR_SPECIFIC_HEADSET_EVENT intent

2012-09-02 Thread Foreigner


Hi Sho.

I just tried similar and got the same result as yours.

0. Ensure that Bluetooth events are observable:

uses-permission android:name=android.permission.BLUETOOTH /

1. Set up broadcast intent listener:

IntentFilter filter1 = new 
IntentFilter(BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_VENDOR_SPECIFIC_HEADSET_EVENT);
this.registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter1);

2. Handle caught event:

if (BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_VENDOR_SPECIFIC_HEADSET_EVENT.equals(action))
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), String.format(AT command), 
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Feedback from anyone who has used/verified the use of this Intent would be 
gladly appreciated.

Thank you.

[android-developers] ADT Plugin Installation

2012-09-02 Thread Ryan Kelso

I am currently beginning a course on Android Application Development at my 
local community college, and have setup Eclipse with the ADT Plugin on my 
laptop (running Ubuntu Linux 12.04) with no problems. I am now attempting 
to set it up on my Windows 7 desktop and am having issues installing the 
ADT Plugin. I went to the Eclipse website but was referred back to here. 
The problem: When I do Install New Software and use 
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ 
it will begin, hit 26% then after a period of time go to 49%, but after 
having waited over 25minutes with no change I eventually cancel and try 
again. After having done this a number of times I finally resolved to post 
here for a solution. I have tried making program exceptions in the 
firewall, gone into the DMZ to try getting things running, turning off my 
firewall, using HTTP instead of HTTPS. Nothing changes. Any ideas? Using 
Eclipse 4.2 Juno, Windows 7 64-bit.

[android-developers] Little Problem with converting a InputStream into a String.

2012-09-02 Thread TheSky

Hey I am new to Java and developing apps for android.

I tried without success to convert a InputStream into a String.

public String Request(String url)
{
InputStream content = null;
try {
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// Execute HTTP Get Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpGet);
content = response.getEntity().getContent();
} catch (Exception e) {
//handle the exception !
}

try {
return convert(content);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
return e.getMessage();
}
}

public String convert(InputStream is) throws IOException
{
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new 
InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line);
}

is.close();

return sb.toString();
}

If i use this Code my App crashes. The Website only contains the word 
Test, nothing more.

I really hope you are able to help me.

Thanks in advance.

emulator, but I can't get it to load onto my android device. Even when
my device is physically connected via usb adb cannot see it on the

 You cannot do this ever under any circumstance.

 Unfortunate end of story, even at the firmware level you have no
 access to the in call audio stream.

 Is this in the FAQ for this group?  Perhaps it should be included..

Re: [android-developers] Suggestions for Data Sync?

You could look into Google App Engine, or a custom backend solution

Otherwise, yes, you will need to buy hosting space and write your own

 Hello,
 I am an experienced programmer who is just starting to design programs

 I'm hoping some one can please help me get started in the right direction
 (unlike I usually do it).

 When a transaction is performed in my app on Device A, I would like to
 transmit data to other devices in a
 'Group' to keep them in sync.

 The minimum data per transaction could be a 3 element string array.
 I was thinking about using messaging to accomplish this because of the small
 payload and I can only assume that would be the closest thing to realtime
 notification. I've only read a little about using texts for process
 communications, and that is one area I might like to investigate.

 On the other hand, using a central database would offer the benefit of being
 to keep a centralized log of activity and I would prefer to use a database
 in general.
 I am starting out now on trying to find methods of using 'cloud' based data
 store from multiple devices for SQLite. Would I need to buy hosting?

 If anyone can please suggest some areas for me to investigate, I'll go do
 some reading.

 Thanks for your help

[android-developers] Re: Password protect app before users can download from google play store

2012-09-02 Thread sparky

No, but there is something even better:  on-line license verification. 
 http://developer.android.com/guide/google/play/licensing/index.html

Your app can ask Android Market any time whether the current user has a 
license to use it.  If they aren't, then you can decide what to do about 
it. (For example, you could display a dialog offering them an incentive to 
pay for it.)

I'm not sure that's relevant, they are substantially APIs?

 For simple apps not requiring external keyboards, graphic tablets or
 pointing devices,
 where is the 'best' entry point viz simplicity of codex, versus upward
 porting ability?


Entry point in what sense?

 Our target audience would be 2.0, but if the app grows we'll want to port to
 3.0 / 4.0.
 Is it simpler to code in 4.0, then limit functionality and down-port to 3.0,
 then 2.0??


you don't have to do anything to port the app up to 3.0/4.0.

If you need features in 2.3 (for example) then you can't use 2.0: if
you don't then stick with the widest audience.  It's simplest to code
with whatever API level gives you enough features for what you need.

 And is there an online sim for beta testing, or do we have to hunt-and-peck
 this puppy?


There are online services that will test your apps, I would recommend
testing on an actual device myself.  There are automated testing
solutions available, as well, for example monkeyrunner, etc..

 Last, is there an app library for remotely accessing and using Google
 Spreadsheets?


You're asking if Google docs has an API, I believe the answer is yes..

For that specific device, I'm guessing not, this sounds fairly

Re: [android-developers] Annoying shutter click undermines scientific research.

After reading this :
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10383083/how-to-mute-camera-shutter-sound-on-android-phone

it seems you can best manage this by coding as best you can to disable the
shutter click, and perhaps providing a help screen of tips that will tip
the users on how to manage the problem themselves.

Personally, if I wanted such an app, and my device was noisy, I would find
a physical means to mute it...

For that specific device, I'm guessing not, this sounds fairly
targeted and (knowing most of the API) nothing stands out to me as a
red flag about how it's done, I'd mess aroudn with the app for a while
and decompile it if I couldn't figure it out..

Jeff,

In the worst case scenario, you could just disassemble the app and
reverse engineer it...

In the best case scenario you should email the developer and ask him
how he's doing it, citing your research as why you need it (providing
proof you won't rip off his app, presumably)..

I am involved in a project to use camera enabled Android devices to
detect
cosmic ray events (
http://www.distributedsensorweb.org/wiki/index.php/DECO). It is
enjoying
some modest funding from the American Physics Society and interest from
Fermi Labs and Standford Univ.

The intent of the app is to run while the phone is plugged in and
charging,
like while the user is sleeping. As such the shutter sound must be
defeated. In fact, even if you were running it on your desk while
working
the shutter sound is so annoying as to inspire you to reach for a
hammer.

For most phones we have been able to make use of the mechanisms seen in
previous posts: mute streams and/or set volume to 0. However, for a
recent
phone, the LG Optimus Elite (were using low cost Virgin Mobile devices
as
some of the test devices to reduce costs), none of the old tricks work:
the
shutter sound always plays. BUT!!! I can download a camera app from
the
Google Play -- aptly named SilentCamera -- which will take pictures,
well,
silently. And whatever solution it is employing is not using the
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS permission.

I have already burned several hours researching and trying a variety of
things. As I've indicated I have tried muting and setting volume to 0
for
all streams, just before the camera.takePicture() call. And have tried
to
do the same in onShutter(). What I have learned is (according to the
logs)
that the camera is playing the shutter sound BEFORE the onShutter()
call.

Obviously, I am hoping someone on the list can help.

Thanks.

Note: The LG Optimus Elite is running 2.3.7

Re: [android-developers] Unable to move 3rd party apps to external sd card in Samsung Galaxy S3

Sorry, but this has nothing to do with Android Development.

 I have contacted samsung customer support and they updated me that moving

 the same is not provided to Samsung Galaxy S3. I just wanted to confirm
 that it is a core android feature?

Re: [android-developers] ADT Plugin Installation

 The problem: When I do Install New Software and use https://

 period of time go to 49%, but after having waited over 25minutes with no
 change I eventually cancel and try again. After having done this a number

 making program exceptions in the firewall, gone into the DMZ to try getting
 things running, turning off my firewall, using HTTP instead of HTTPS.
 Nothing changes. Any ideas? Using Eclipse 4.2 Juno, Windows 7 64-bit.
