Re: [android-developers] Re: Alarm Intent not triggered
Raymond,
Any suggestions for me?
Problem is alarm is set from my Activity, and the alarm is received only if
Activity is currently running. Otherwise it will not.

Hello,
I am developing an app related to alarm service and facing an issue of

I have registered for event in manifest file:
receiver android:name=com.example.myfirstapp.EventTriggerManager

BroadcastReceiver:
public class EventTriggerManager extends BroadcastReceiver
{
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
System.out.println(Alarm raised);
Toast.makeText(context, Don't panik You have an alarm.,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Adding an alarm from the Activity class:
Intent intent = new Intent(this,
EventTriggerManager.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(),
12345678, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.
ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, totalTime, pendingIntent);
But alarm is not getting triggered when totalTime is reached in the
system.
Note: totalTime is absolute time used.
Pls point my mistake why the expected output is not seen.

[android-developers] Re: Choreographer regularly skipping frames during OpenGL Render
Are you using TextureView? Do you see the same issue with a GLSurfaceView?
You could also try
using http://developer.android.com/tools/debugging/systrace.html to see if
anything strange is going on in the system when you drop frames.
OpenGL-wise it looks pretty simple.

Thanks for the response, Doug, but we're talking about two different
things. I'm not referring to the errors that show up the log tagged
Choreographer when the frame warning limit is triggered on the main thread.
I'm talking about actually using the Choreographer API to render OpenGL
content locked to VSYNC. These delays are on the rendering threads. While
I understand frames dropping periodically when the system is servicing
other work, the inability to manage even a few second without skipping
several VSYNC intervals indicates to me that something else is wrong with
the GL code.

multitasking multiuser operating systems and the wide variety of devices
out there and their hardware capabilities.
The Choreographer itself doesn't start complaining about skipped frames
in logcat until after 30 frames have been skipped:
private static final int SKIPPED_FRAME_WARNING_LIMIT =
SystemProperties.getInt(
debug.choreographer.skipwarning, 30);
So maybe you can lighten up your own acceptable threshold for frames
skipped (unless you're actually observing the jank that you're trying to
avoid)?

Hello all -
I am working on an application that is using Choreographer and OpenGL to
render flash patterns on the display. Our GL calls are quite simple,
simply toggling the display back and forth between white and black using
glClearColor() based on the frame time and status of the pattern we want to
apply. The timing of this pattern if very critical, and I am having severe
issues getting consistent behavior out of the timing pulses we received
from Choreographer to do the rendering.
For simplicity sake, I have basically copied the Basic Dream application
in AOSP, so 95% of my code looks exactly like this sample:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/screensavers/Basic/+/master
Our only change is that, where they call mSquare.draw() inside of
doFrame(), we have another method called drawFrame() that does the
following:
private void drawFrame() {
final boolean nextBit = mPattern[mIndex];
if (nextBit) {
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
} else {
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
}
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
return true;
}
However, for the purposes of this discussion, you can see the *exact
same behavior* by simply running the AOSP sample as an application
(i.e. changing the Colors class from a DreamService to a launcher Activity).
The problem is that on a regular basis (at least once per second, often
many times), the debug logging returns that the frame callback took 33ms
(instead of 16ms), and in many cases 50ms+! I can understand skipping a
rare frame here or there, but skipping 3-4 frames at once seems like I'm
missing something big here. Not all devices do this, but high-end devices
like the Nexus 5 and GS4 do. Devices we've tested like the Note 3, GS3,
and Moto X don't seem to do so nearly as often. Example typical logcat
over a period of 30 seconds:

We definitely could and that is a discussion we are having for sure! Technically we can, but from a business standpoint the OEM actually licenses the solution. The API itself gives Android Developers access to that licensed solution. I am trying to come up with an offering that we can definitely include as a service through Google Play. So we can broaden the playing field! On Saturday, February 22, 2014 9:14:58 AM UTC-8, Ubuntu guy wrote: Thanks Eric. However, i still don't get as to why the service can't be distributed through the play store. Even if its installed in unsupported devices, the APIs like getDolbyAudioProcessing(...,...) could just return null and applications would anyways be handling such cases, isn't it? The pro being any quick fix to the service can be deployed quickly via play store rather than being bottlenecked by OEM's update schedule, which is often influenced by many factors and there by delaying the dolby's fix.

The Dolby Service is definitely in Amazon Devices, but also many other OEMS. We're working to get ALL OEM partners to adopt the Dolby Solution (including the Dolby decoder) So what does that means for App Developers? Instead of having to deal with a whole SDK built into your app, you integrate a small jar file that's tiny which can talk to the underlying Dolby tech found on supported devices. We are working all those companies ;) Amazon is definitely pushing for this since all their Kindle Fire HD(X) devices have Dolby built in. http://developer.amazon.com/public/community/post/Tx1G2N72C7VKCTR/Dolby-Raises-the-Bar-Again-for-Audio-Standards-on-Kindle-Fire On Sunday, January 5, 2014 7:18:12 PM UTC-8, Ubuntu guy wrote: These new APIs seem to be fun to try but is there any reason as to why the plug-in service is not distributed through play store just like google play services? Based on what i read, any updates, bug fixes in the plug-in service would be restricted by the OEM like amazon in this case, isn't it? This isn't good for users and application developers. Besides, whats the idea behind the plug in service? Why not let the linked jar to directly call upon Dolby's audio components? Is it because of permissions? Finally, hope you guys work directly work with companies like Netflix, Google, Amazon and popular games for quick adoption.

Is this something you folks would be interested in? It's a Java Library with a few simple API calls. Anyways, I'd like to use this to get feedback as well. The API is available at http://developer.dolby.com Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Emulator skin and hardware recent apps button...
Hi there ! I've designed some realistic emulator skins for famous devices (Nexus 4, Galaxy S4, HTC One M8...), but now, I'm facing a problem. In the skin's layout file, how to handle/describe the hardware recent apps button that comes with devices like HTC One or Galaxy S5 ? I know home is for the home button, soft-left for the menu button, back for the back one... but what about recent/switch apps ? Ok, I could disregard this feature as a long press on home button still does the trick but well, it would be more elegant if the emulator could act fully as the actual device. Thank you ! :-) Cyril -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
