[android-developers] Re: Fragment Transition Animation Crashes
The native fragment API uses the new (since 3.0) animators. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/prop-animation.html You can see the difference in the source, too: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/support/+/refs/heads/master/v4/java/android/support/v4/app/FragmentManager.java 1.

[android-developers] Custom view rendering issue
Hi, I am writing a custom view and for optimization purposes, I draw some static part of the view in a Bitmap. Unfortunately, the quality of the rendering when using an offscreen bitmap is noticeably less compared to rendering into the view's canvas bitmap. Here are two screenshots showing the difference Rendering into view's Canvas: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-wSjtLmhUgz8/UQZV96LTo6I/AEM/r9saff_8dlM/s1600/01_view_canvas.png Rendering into a Bitmap Canvas https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-jVuFcXhAf7g/UQZWK7NBNfI/AEU/0AfCGfQMudU/s1600/02_bitmap_canvas.png The difference is most noticeable at the horizontal black line. The anti-aliasing algorithm seems to affect more pixels (is wider). The drawing code is the same in both cases, and the offscreen canvas is created like this final Bitmap tempBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(getWidth(), getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_); final Canvas tempCanvas = new Canvas(tempBitmap); Any ideas on how to get the same rendering in the offscreen canvas as in the view's ?

Re: [android-developers] ArrayAdapter in background thread
Directly modifying an adapter's data (especially changing the number of items) from a background thread is a recipe for disaster.

Re: [android-developers] Mobile network idle sockets disconnected
Sorry for reopening this, but I have a consequence behavior with this and was hoping for some insights. As I said earlier, we are using a very specific APN that allows the connection only to a restricted range of servers. I managed to use a heartbeat every 5 minutes to workaround the GCM issue, and with the app everything is working fine. However, I have another consequence. Because the APN restricts access to anything outside our safe little world, the system is consuming a whole load of data. Android OS consumed 3 mb in three days, Google Services 416 k. In the data settings I was able to restrict Google Services (as well as software updates and others) from using data but I can't do the same for Android OS. This is killing us completely because we have a very restrictive data plans. Any ideas on how I can disable data transfer for everything except my application? Thanks On 21 December 2012 15:55, Goncalo Oliveira gonc...@minkan.net wrote: Robert, Thanks again for clarifying. Basically if I open up GCM I'm allowing user to work with gtalk, so I will want to avoid that. Looks like sending the heartbeat every 5 minutes is the only option I have left. Thanks for the help. Much appreciated. Cheers On 21 December 2012 15:44, Robert Greenwalt rgreenw...@google.com wrote: I believe most of the google apps rely on GCM (calendar, gmail, contacts, talk, etc), also 3rd party apps that need pushed notifications are encouraged to use GCM. Unless you are making a custom build and denying app installs you probably have apps that will be broken without GCM. Of course, if you have very limited data plans on special purpose phones, you may wish for all those apps to be broken - they can use quite a bit of data. I don't know what GCM's steady-state data rate is for a device. I believe it does a carrier keep-alive ping every 20-30 minutes. It also checks for updates whenever the screen comes on. Other than that I think it is dependent on user or network-originating app traffic. R On Fri, Dec 21, 2012 at 2:23 AM, Goncalo Oliveira gonc...@minkan.netwrote: Robert, Thank you for the explanation. There's just one more thing that I'd like you to help me understand. If we choose to allow the GCM connection, what kind of traffic can we expect to have? Like I said previously, we have a very tight data plan, so if the GCM connection adds more than just a few bytes, that might be a bad idea to enable it. Also, by enabling GCM connection, what am I allowing the users to do? Can they use gtalk or something else? Cheers On 21 December 2012 00:17, Robert Greenwalt rgreenw...@google.comwrote: The GCM is part of the platform - 3rd party apps depend on it and so there's no mechanism for deactivating it. If you can allow the GCM connection to succeed, you should avoid the current problems, but if you're going for a secure platform you may not want the GCM connection to succeed. You could potentially hijack the dns resolution: have your dns server report an address you control for mtalk.google.com, then allow connections to your own server, but no real functionallity. With some reverse engineering you may be able to get to a quiet connection that doesn't trigger these data-stall triggers. The easiest solution is to adjust your keep-alive ping to 6 minutes. That will effect the battery, but less than allowing the resets to happen. I have created internal issues to examine this issue, but even if we fixed it today internally you wouldn't see it for a long while. The first issue is to find what traffic is causing this connection reset. The second is to re-eval counting udp packets (I am assuming that's causing part of this problem).

[android-developers] The new CellInfo API
I saw:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/CellInfo.html
and thought that having the signal strength tower ID and in use and
neighboring
towers all in one callback would be nice to have. I wrote a test program
to see
if I could get this CellInfoGsm on a Galaxy Nexus or Nexus 4. Snippet of
test
code follows:
@Override
public void onCreate() {
// Notification to not get killed
Log.d(CellInfoTest,Service onCreate);
mNotification = buildNotification();
startForeground(5,mNotification);
((NotificationManager)getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE)).notify(5,mNotification);
mListener = new PhoneStateListener() {
public void onCellInfoChanged(ListCellInfo c) {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,onCellInfoChanged
called);
dumpCellInfoList(c);
}
public void onCellLocationChanged(CellLocation c) {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,onCellLocationChanged
called);
dumpCellLocation(c);
}
};
myTm =
(TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
}
private void dumpCellInfoList(ListCellInfo c) {
try {
for (int i = 0; i c.size(); i++) {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,dumpInfoLocation:+c.get(i).toString());
}
} catch (java.lang.NullPointerException e) {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,Null pointer for CellInfo);
}
}
private void dumpCellLocation(CellLocation c) {
try {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,dumpCellLocation:+c.toString());
} catch (java.lang.NullPointerException e) {
Log.d(CellInfoTest,Null pointer for
CellLocation);
}
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent i, int flags, int startid){
Log.d(CellInfoTest,Service onStartCommand);
myTm.listen(mListener,
PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_INFO +
PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_LOCATION);
return START_STICKY;
}
I've also included
uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=17 /
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION/
in the manifest to be sure I was on an updated phone that supported the API
and could see
the cell location information. I gathered the adb logcat output and
toggled the airplane mode
a few times to see what got called back. I'm seeing:
01-25 19:04:31.516 D/CellInfoTest( 7999): Starting service

01-25 19:05:00.857 D/CellInfoTest( 7999):
dumpCellLocation:[10989,194036662,418]
which looks like as soon as I register I get a callback, but the CellInfo
is null (which
I think is very odd, as it should at least contain the location/strength of
the cell that
is currently connected and dumped by dumpCellLocation) each of the
callbacks that
follow happen with the airplane mode toggle an only for
onCellLocationChanged.
My questions are:
Is there a flaw in my code that I am missing?
Is there a permission that I need to get the onCellInfoChanged callback to
happen?
If my code looks good, who do I look to to ask why the Galaxy Nexus and
Nexus 4
both fail to make the callbacks (is there a CTS case update that needs to
happen,
or should I file a bug against the android code?)

[android-developers] Re: Eclipse exported apk crashing
Sohayb, It could definitely be Proguard. I have two ideas for you. First turn debugging on for the app in the manifest so you can see the debug output on your device. Then turn proguard off and try running your apk on the device. The debug output should tell you what is happening. If the app runs then it is almost definitely Proguard at fault.

Re: [android-developers] Mobile network idle sockets disconnected
I am curious what the 3mb/day of data consists of if the servers can't be reached. 3mb of tcp connect attempts? DNS lookups? If it's DNS perhaps you could populate your local DNS server with bogus records so that the DNS requests die down to be replaced with perhaps fewer failing connect attempts? Can you capture this traffic? You could potentially use a different APN type. Instead of using a default type you could put it on type IMS or type MMS. This will involve a bit more work for you, but if you don't a a default connection the other apps shouldn't use any data. This would also mean things like the browser won't work.

[android-developers] jumping thru Android source
Does anyone know why Eclipse chokes when I try to jump around in Android
source?
I have this method in my Activity:
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mView.onResume();
}
So, I jumped into onResume of mView (GLSurfaceView):
public void onResume() {
mGLThread.onResume();
}
So then I try to jump to the declaration of mGLThread (which is right in
GLSurfaceView at the bottom of the file).
However, Eclipse won't do it.
It says Current text selection cannot be opened in an editor
Any ideas why this doesn't work?

Re: [android-developers] Mobile network idle sockets disconnected
I don't think you're making your own builds, so you'll have to set the APN data on each device (though you probably already have to do this as it's not a public apn). In the apn data set the type of the apn to mms instead of default or blank. Remove any default/blank apn for your mcc/mnc pair. In your app, you will need to call CM.startUsingNetworkFeature(TYPE_MOBILE, enableMMS). This will turn off every 10 minutes (by default - may be different on different phones) so you need to call it repeatedly forever perhaps every 9.5 minutes. Then you need to call requestRouteToHost(TYPE_MOBILE_MMS, int addr) for every IP addr you're accessing. Then you should be able to access the servers normally.

Re: [android-developers] Mobile network idle sockets disconnected
Thanks Robert, I really appreciate your help. I'll try as you suggest. On 28 January 2013 16:59, Robert Greenwalt rgreenw...@google.com wrote: I don't think you're making your own builds, so you'll have to set the APN data on each device (though you probably already have to do this as it's not a public apn). In the apn data set the type of the apn to mms instead of default or blank. Remove any default/blank apn for your mcc/mnc pair. In your app, you will need to call CM.startUsingNetworkFeature(TYPE_MOBILE, enableMMS). This will turn off every 10 minutes (by default - may be different on different phones) so you need to call it repeatedly forever perhaps every 9.5 minutes. Then you need to call requestRouteToHost(TYPE_MOBILE_MMS, int addr) for every IP addr you're accessing. Then you should be able to access the servers normally.

The DNS resolves the addresses correctly, but the connections will fail. Unfortunately I don't have access to DNS servers, so it's a bit harder to capture this traffic. I've installed Onavo count to capture the traffic, and I can see the usage growing up with Android OS. The APN idea seems to be a good workaround. Breaking the brower or other apps isn't really a problem for us, as this is something very specific. Can you tell me where can I find more information on how to do this? Cheers On 28 January 2013 16:14, Robert Greenwalt rgreenw...@google.com wrote: I am curious what the 3mb/day of data consists of if the servers can't be reached. 3mb of tcp connect attempts? DNS lookups? If it's DNS perhaps you could populate your local DNS server with bogus records so that the DNS requests die down to be replaced with perhaps fewer failing connect attempts? Can you capture this traffic? You could potentially use a different APN type. Instead of using a default type you could put it on type IMS or type MMS. This will involve a bit more work for you, but if you don't a a default connection the other apps shouldn't use any data. This would also mean things like the browser won't work.

As I said earlier, we are using a very specific APN that allows the connection only to a restricted range of servers. I managed to use a heartbeat every 5 minutes to workaround the GCM issue, and with the app everything is working fine. However, I have another consequence. Because the APN restricts access to anything outside our safe little world, the system is consuming a whole load of data. Android OS consumed 3 mb in three days, Google Services 416 k. In the data settings I was able to restrict Google Services (as well as software updates and others) from using data but I can't do the same for Android OS. This is killing us completely because we have a very restrictive data plans. Any ideas on how I can disable data transfer for everything except my application?

Unless you are making a custom build and denying app installs you probably have apps that will be broken without GCM. Of course, if you have very limited data plans on special purpose phones, you may wish for all those apps to be broken - they can use quite a bit of data. I don't know what GCM's steady-state data rate is for a device. I believe it does a carrier keep-alive ping every 20-30 minutes. It also checks for updates whenever the screen comes on. Other than that I think it is dependent on user or network-originating app traffic.

If we choose to allow the GCM connection, what kind of traffic can we expect to have? Like I said previously, we have a very tight data plan, so if the GCM connection adds more than just a few bytes, that might be a bad idea to enable it. Also, by enabling GCM connection, what am I allowing the users to do? Can they use gtalk or something else? Cheers On 21 December 2012 00:17, Robert

[android-developers] Re: Knockoff copy of my app on Google Play.
No, it wasn't open source. As far as actually doing: it is very easily done from a technical perspective. Just copy an APK, package it with your own, and make your start activity call an activity from the APK. I'm trivializing a bit, but there is really not much more to it than that. The wrapping code could do all sorts of things before calling through to my activity (in fact, this is how a lot of Trojans get out there), but at the surface, it seems they are only doing it to run a full screen ad before the app opens.

I noticed that Proguard is able to produce obfuscated code which makes Java Decompiler http://java.decompiler.free.fr/ crash. It's a reasonable step to obfuscate any app (also free ones) in order to make it harder to figure out where to apply these changes or how to crack them. More advanced protection steps are described herehttp://www.google.com/events/io/2011/sessions/evading-pirates-and-stopping-vampires-using-license-verification-library-in-app-billing-and-app-engine.html.

This is the typical story.

You may recognize one or more of the people there. Usually, it's easy to find their email and contact them directly about such a thing. You may never get a response but it's certainly worth trying.

Re: [android-developers] All my apps are losing 5 star rates at a really high speed. I've lost more than 200 during this weekend.
It might be that Google is consolidating ratings that were done by one person a number of times. It might also be that the ones determined to be fraudulent are being removed. It might also be possible that whatever algorithm is doing the work has a bug and is flagging actual, real reviews and ratings. We all know that's probably impossible though.

Rates are not fraudulent and I assume they are getting rid of old rates. My app has been in the market for more than 3 years and I have the feeling they are getting rid of the old rates because new comments are unaffected. Two out of 25k rates is meaningless. I am losing 270 rates out of around 2.5k.. that's more than 10% of all the rates that have taken me 3 years to earn. This is my portfolio and my reputation.

So, let's say I have my app running. Then I close the magnetic case. Then, I wait one second. Then, I open the case. So, my understanding is that onPause gets called upon closing the case. Then onResume gets called upon opening the case. The confusing part is that some of the stuff in the old program is valid, and some isn't. I guess I have to re-load all OpenGL textures for one thing?

[android-developers] Re: pause breaks...
As soon as your OpenGL context changes you'll need to reload all textures. The Renderer.onSurfaceCreated method has a very good explanation of what's going on under the hood and what is required from you: Called when the surface is created or recreated. Called when the rendering thread starts and whenever the EGL context is lost. The EGL context *will typically be lost* when the Android device *awakes after going to sleep*. Since this method is called at the beginning of rendering, as well as every time the EGL context is lost, *this method is a convenient place to put code to create resources that need to be created when the rendering starts*, and that need to be recreated when the EGL context is lost. Textures are an example of a resource that you might want to create here. On Monday, January 28, 2013 2:35:23 PM UTC-6, bob wrote: So, let's say I have my app running. Then I close the magnetic case.

[android-developers] Eclipse XML editor slow when ADT installed
Hi! I've been trying to get info on this for some time now and decided to finally ask here: Me and my colleagues have been experiencing (sometimes very extreme) slowdowns in Eclipse tab switching/opening documents when having the ADT plugin installed and opening a couple of xml layout files and xml files in general. This happens on the latest release of Juno with the latest release of the ADT plugin. I've personally experienced it on two Windows 7 PC-s (one x64 with x64 compliled Eclipse, one x86), my x64 Macbook with x86 Eclipse and on my Debian x86 laptop. One desktop and the macbook have 8gb of ram, the other desktop has 4gb and the linux laptop 2gb. All eclipses have java runtime set to 1.6 or 1.7, all have increased heap size to 1 or 2gb and increased permgen size. Some have parallelgc enabled. As you can see, since the problem occurs on all of these setups, this eclipse tweaks have no effect on this problem (or very mild effect) which causes me to believe that it most probably has to do with extensions relating to xml editing that ADT brings with itself. If any help: I can see that when switching between two xml layout files toolbar buttons Reload Dependencies/Turn Grammar Constraints Off and Drop To Frame flicker in the 2 second pause between switches (this pause is much longer if there are more than two tabs open). Seems like some state-checks are done many times over and over in a loop and cause these buttons to switch between states. This is also obviously putting a lot of stress on the gc structures and sometimes the only solution is to restart eclipse completely to let it all clear out. Extreemly annoying as you can imagine.

[android-developers] Re: Eclipse XML editor slow when ADT installed
Just as additional information. I also do have problems with the older Eclipse 3.7.2 in combination with ADT. ADT leaks memory pretty badly on my development machine and brings it to a complete halt after a few hours of development and debugging. This affects just about anything. Slow XML editors, slow overall performance of my PC. I filed a bug report a while ago and I was told to profile the Eclipse process with some tool that does not work on my machine. So basically I have no clue how to help them spot that problem and while that bug is still there I have to restart Eclipse multiple times a day by killing its process and launching it with the -clean parameter. It's awesome. Anyway, ADT is much much worse on Eclipse Juno. There it's just a matter of a few minutes until I have to restart Eclipse. That's why I switched back.

All eclipses have java runtime set to 1.6 or 1.7, all have increased heap size to 1 or 2gb and increased permgen size. Some have parallelgc enabled. As you can see, since the problem occurs on all of these setups, this eclipse tweaks have no effect on this problem (or very mild effect) which causes me to believe that it most probably has to do with extensions relating to xml editing that ADT brings with itself. If any help: I can see that when switching between two xml layout files toolbar buttons Reload Dependencies/Turn Grammar Constraints Off and Drop To Frame flicker in the 2 second pause between switches (this pause is much longer if there are more than two tabs open). Seems like some state-checks are done many times over and over in a loop and cause these buttons to switch between states. This is also obviously putting a lot of stress on the gc structures and sometimes the only solution is to restart eclipse completely to let it all clear out. Extreemly annoying as you can imagine.

[android-developers] Re: Eclipse XML editor slow when ADT installed
Well, I can confirm that after installing the SR1 Optimizations early patch I can see a noticeable improvement with regards to switching between tabs and opening xml documents, at least on this Windows 7 machine I'm currently using. Thanks for the links! As for the leakiness/stressfulness towards the GC of the ADT plugin, I agree, a large part of the issue surely resides inside it and is only masked by this optimization patches (but at least the toolbar button flicker is gone as far as I can see so it could really be that a large part of the problem was caused by inefficient calling of plugin listeners by the IDE, which were unnecessarily being called multiple times from different code-paths and causing the stress). I tried tracing it myself once, but don't remember anymore where exactly I got stuck with it... Anyway, it seems like it's working better (acceptable) now, so thanks again! It was slowest on the macbook, so I'll post my feedback once I get around to trying it on there... On Tuesday, January 29, 2013 1:35:34 AM UTC+1, Nobu Games wrote: Just as additional information. I also do have problems with the older Eclipse 3.7.2 in combination with ADT. ADT leaks memory pretty badly on my development machine and brings it to a complete halt after a few hours of development and debugging. This affects just about anything. Slow XML editors, slow overall performance of my PC. I filed a bug report a while ago and I was told to profile the Eclipse process with some tool that does not work on my machine. So basically I have no clue how to help them spot that problem and while that bug is still there I have to restart Eclipse multiple times a day by killing its process and launching it with the -clean parameter. It's awesome. Anyway, ADT is much much worse on Eclipse Juno. There it's just a matter of a few minutes until I have to restart Eclipse. That's why I switched back.

[android-developers] Re: getting the active Fragment
Unfortunately this is really not straightforward. You'll have to work around in order to make that work. You basically have the following possibilities: 1. You can get the currently visible page index number from the pager. Use that number to get the correct fragment from your adapter. Then you can retrieve the currently visible fragment from your fragment pager adapter. But be careful: your adapter needs to internally cache the created fragments, otherwise you can always get a new instance of your fragment. 2. You can let your Fragment itself tell your Activity that it is currently visible. You can check that in your fragment by calling Fragment.getUserVisibleHint(). Use the latest version of Fragment(State)PagerAdapter. Previous versions did not set that hint correctly.

But be careful: your adapter needs to internally cache the created fragments, otherwise you can always get a new instance of your fragment. That's what's happening - i'm getting a new instance.

You can let your Fragment itself tell your Activity that it is currently visible. You can check that in your fragment by calling Fragment.getUserVisibleHint(). Use the latest version of Fragment(State)PagerAdapter. Previous versions did not set that hint correctly. Problem is getting to the Fragment object itself - can't get it unless I store references in my Activity. I'm sub-classing FragmentPagerAdapter for my adapter... and just came across getItemId() which lets you set an id as the fragments are created by the adapter. i would have thought that then fragmentManager.findFragmentById() would have worked. I've verified the getItemid() method is being called. but still no go. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] All my apps are losing 5 star rates at a really high speed. I've lost more than 200 during this weekend.
My app has been published for 2 1/2 years and have 2500+ ratings also. I haven't lost any that I can see. Knock on wood.
