[android-developers] Violation of section 4.4 of the Developer Distribution Agreement.
I have an app that I submitted on Google Play and was removed with following message. Please address the issue described below, then submit an update with your changes. REASON FOR REJECTION:Violation of section 4.4 of the Developer Distribution Agreement. After a regular review we have determined that your app interferes with or accesses another service or product in an unauthorized manner. This violates the provision of your agreement with Google referred to above. All submission rejections are tracked. Repeated rejections due to policy violation But I don't get it, what is it I am doing that is causing this violation. Here is the working on app 1. Login using Instagram. 2. Place bets on their favourite team. 3. If the team wins the losing team will follow them on Instagram. App name is Bet for InstaFollowers. There are no ads in the app, no third party library, all done using Instagram API. My app just connects with my MySQL server. Any help regarding this will be great.

Re: [android-developers] Search a contact using phone number
I mean to say, on emulator I am able to get the contact name. But on on my phone I am not able to get the contacts name. before this code I did this: String displayName = ? after looking for contact name I did: msgDialog.setTitle(From : + displayName); the output is From : ? whereas on emulator I am getting the contact name.

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to set the preferred APN through code?
Hi, What I infer from your code is that you haven't added the APN first into the database. You need to first write the APN settings into the database before updating the preferred APN code. The following links will be helpful in making you understand and resolve the issue: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/zhengpei/archive/2009/10/13/managing-apn-data-in-google-android.aspx http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7867079/android-apn-enforcement Moreover, it is indeed true that from Android 4.0 onwards, apps need root permissions to modify APN Settings. But if you are developing your app for Android versions prior to Android 4.0 then you need not worry. :) I hope this solves your problems.

Re: [android-developers] How to set the preferred APN through code?
You need to set the MCC )(Mobile Country Code) and MNC (Mobile Network Code) values too in your code to set and display the APN's on Android UI. Try the following code and see what happens: *private static* *final* Uri *PREFERRED_CONTENT_URI* = Uri.*parse*( content://telephony/carriers/preferapn); // getCurrentPreferredAPN is an internal function to retrieve the _id of the current APN. String strCurrent = getCurrentPreferredAPN(); ContentValues values = *new* ContentValues(); Uri ret; String MCC = null, MNC = null; TelephonyManager tel = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(this.TELEPHONY_SERVICE); String networkOperator = tel.getNetworkOperator(); if (networkOperator != null) { MCC = networkOperator.substring(0, 3); MNC = networkOperator.substring(3); } // create the dummy ID values.put(*SZ_NAME*, *blah*); values.put(*SZ_APN*, *blah*); values.put(*SZ_TYPE* , *blah*); values.put(current, 1); values.put(mcc, MCC); values.put(mnc, MNC); // 'delete' the current entry. nUpdated = getContentResolver().delete(PREFERRED_CONTENT_URI, _id=?, new String[] { strCurrent }; // 'insert' a new entry. ret = getContentResolver().insert(PREFERRED_*CONTENT_URI*, values); *if*(*null* == ret) { Log.*i*(Add Dummy APN, Failed); *return*; } The call == insert* ==* is always returning null for me.

Re: [android-developers] Setting proxy in android through code
Hi Mark, Thanks for your inputs. I have found another method in the meantime. We can set the APN's through code and get our device to use our chosen proxy. And one doesn't need root permissions to do that until Android ICS. What I want now is, to be notified when the user creates a new APN through the GUI so that I could update my list. Is there any hook which we can use or notification generated when a new APN is manually added through the GUI? Or is there a better way to set the proxy regardless of having root permissions or not. I would appreciate anyone who could help me out on this topic.

Re: [android-developers] Re: density setting for aspect ration long screens
Thanks Bob, I will defiantly review my layout strategy. -- Best Regards, Atif Gulzar I Unicode, ɹɐzlnƃ ɟıʇɐ On Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 9:41 PM, Bob Kerns r...@acm.org wrote: Atif, the various layout classes are *intended* to be a generic solution, making minor adjustments for minor changes. Using different resource folders is intended for making major readjustments to layout. If you design a good layout with the layout classes, you may not need them at all! Generally, separate resource folders are useful for when a particular layout strategy simply breaks down when pushed too far. For example, rotating to landscape may make the screen simply too short for one strategy, but if you move a couple of things to the side, you're OK. If you need to distinguish between 480x800 and 480x854 -- and especially if it's 480x854 that has the problem -- then I would strongly suggest that you take a close look at your layout strategies. LinearLayout with some expandable padding elements, TableLayout, or the use of a 9-patch instead of a fixed background graphic. Android offers a lot of facilities for handling of layout differences. I don't think they're always as easy to use and predictable as they ought to be, but they're pretty rich and functional, none-the-less. So if they aren't doing the job, and you're having to rely on differentiating your layouts at the level of 480x800 vs 480x854, then to get any help, you're going to need to precisely identify what problem the layouts aren't handling for you automatically, and why. My guess, however, would be that you're either: 1) Trying to put too much stuff onto each screen. This makes your layouts very brittle, and usually makes the result seem very cluttered for the user, as well. There can be times when this is appropriate -- for example, when the goal is a single-screen status monitoring display. But generally, the strategy here should be to move to less-cluttered, more tightly focused screens. 2) Trying to keep too tight a control on the layouts, rather than defining a logical layout strategy, and allowing the system to make the layout choices for you, within defined ranges. That does take both a lot of understanding, and a lot of testing to identify the usable limits of each layout strategy. But the result is that you won't have to specify a new layout to handle some new device that adds another 54 pixels along one edge.

[android-developers] density setting for aspect ration long screens
We can set the pixel values in custom views by multiplying them with this.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density; This is ok when the screen aspect ratio is normal means not long But how can we set the pixels along Y-axis when the aspect ration is long. -- Best Regards, Atif Gulzar I Unicode, ɹɐzlnƃ ɟıʇɐ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] ViewFlipper switching views on screen orientation change
whenever the orientation is changed the onCreate fuction is called again (unless you handled it).

Re: [android-developers] ContextMenu on TableLayout: how to get selected item position?
I had the similar issue and solved it with a work around. In your table row add a TextView and makes its visibility GONE and set its text as 0,1,2,4... for respective rows. Add a single listener for each row. When some row is clicked the listener will give you a clicked view. From this view get the text view from this text view the index. -- Best Regards, Atif Gulzar I Unicode, ɹɐzlnƃ ɟıʇɐ On Sat, Jan 23, 2010 at 5:19 AM, Thierry Legras tleg...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, ContextMenu seems quite handy as long as we are using an AdapterView as we can easily get selected item position in onContextItemSelected from AdapterContextMenuInfo.position Any idea how we can achieve something similar in a TableLayout?

Just use Drawable bottom | top | right | left for image. -- Best Regards, Atif Gulzar I Unicode, ɹɐzlnƃ ɟıʇɐ On Wed, Aug 12, 2009 at 5:53 PM, gosh steve...@unimelb.edu.au wrote: Hi there, A 'Button' view comes up with text, while the 'ImageButton' widget comes up with an image but no text, is there a way to relatively easily (e.g. method calls, say), either: 1. Add text to ImageButton (like those buttons that appear in menu item/via the physical menu button)? or 2. Add an icon/image to a Button? without resorting to constructing a new button class? I.e. I could put text within the image, but then I can't use Localization properly/effectively. Any suggests, much appreciated here.

do not use scrollView at all and use LinearLauout and use combination of touch events and scrollBy(int, int)file:///E:/android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3/docs/reference/android/view/View.html#scrollBy%28int,%20int%29, scrollTo(int, int)file:///E:/android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3/docs/reference/android/view/View.html#scrollTo%28int,%20int%29.

there is a difference in can be used only once and single running instance is allowed The correct is only single running instance is allowed.
