[android-beginners] Emulator error cause?
Hello Android experts. Trying to run a HelloWorld app in an AVD for 2.1 and WVGA854 and right when the emulator pops up, it disappears and this comes up in the comsole. I 'think' it means 'you idiot... youre disk is almost full and the swap file cant grow, so were going to kill you'. Did I guess right? Anyone else seen this?

Spammers would use virus-infected zombie PCs (they already use them) to send spam from a perfectly valid SMTP server: the one the (infected) user has configured in his mail client. This is a moderated list. I don't know how google groups works behind the scenes, but maybe simply unsubscribing the spammer would block him.

[android-beginners] How to overlay POIs on Camera
Hi All, Without using Wikitude, I'm trying to find out how to overlay POIs over Camera. I have seen a few code samples that overlays POIs over MapView. How to do the same for Camera? Any clue/example code would be very much appreciated. Thanking all in advance. -raich -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group. NEW!

[android-beginners] Query contact number with URI
HI Gurus, I have used the action below to pick specific number from contacts: Intent intent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI); startActivityForResult(intent1, REQUEST_GET_PHONE); which returns a content://***/contact/3 type of URI to me. How do I query the contact database using this URI to get the tel:// uri? Thanks Shyam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group. NEW!

[android-beginners] Re: Serial over Bluetooth
Apologies for the lengthy post, but I wanted this to be at least semi-
useful, and there is not a lot of info out there. I see that the OP is
from awhile ago, but that this thread has been resurrected.
I am currently using my Droid (firmware push: 2.0.1) to communicate to
an ArduinoBT (Bluetooth) board via SPP (the ArduinoBT's default) using
the well-known SPP UUID (0x1101 host side, and the UUID-extended
version of 0x1101 on the client (Android) side; see the code below for
the actual UUID). The ArduinoBT board uses a BlueGiga WT11 module and
iWrap firmware/API. We currently have it interfaced to a hobby robot.
*** Following pertains to Android 2.0 and up; there is no public
Bluetooth API before 2.0 ***
Given that the ArduinoBT comes out of the box set up for SPP, I
configured our Android client application to do the same. I've
commented the code, but you need to know something about Bluetooth to
get the most out of it. I highly recommend Bluetooth Essentials for
Programmers, available for free. On the Android side: the Android SDK
doc, and the Bluetooth Chat Sample are excellent references.
Before you run the client, you need to pair your robot controller with
your Android device. It doesn't have to be connected, just paired. You
can do the discovery/pairing from your handset's standard networking
settings. You will need a PIN; Android requires authentication even if
your robot controller doesn't (most controllers let you set this as an
option). You will also need to enable Bluetooth.
This is a brain-dead simple client, no threading, no receiving; all it
does is send commands to our robot (modified a bit, since the OP only
cares about the SPP communication material), and should be very easy
to modify for various purposes. All that needs to be changed on this
side is the MAC address. Enter the robot controller's MAC address in
place of the XX:XX... string below.

[android-beginners] How to implement asking questions before uninstalling the apk
Hi, Usually when ever we install some apk from market and then try to uninstall it we get set of questions like 1.Did not like the software. 2. Do not want to use...etc I want to know how we can do this. If there is some site where in I should look please let me know. I tried looking for it but did not know how to search.

[android-beginners] Re: All combinations of os and res ok?
Thanx Walt. I WAS wondering about the Google APIs I assume if one writes an app using maps, locations, etc, one needs the Google APIs. I'm just trying to get Real Simple single function apps working that test drawing on a canvas, loading and scaling a bitmap, popping up a toast when I click a button. You know, the basics. I think I have found that keeping only one project open in eclipse uses less swap file (need to get a bigger disk on this laptop). Any idea how big the AVD sd card needs to be to run a hello world? 8meg? On Feb 10, 12:11 am, Walt Armour waltarm...@gmail.com wrote: An error? You'll need to post more details (like the actual error) or else no one will be able to help. Here's a shot in the dark (since some folks at work hit this today): when you create the AVD you can target (for example) Android 1.6 - API Level 4 or Google APIs (Google Inc.) - API Level 4. Often you need the latter version to get the API support or else apps won't run (and possibly won't even install, not sure).
