 So far, I've been handling this by using the SD card for the baulk of

 little cumbersome.
 
 I notice the smallest of the Archos 5 tablets is 8GB.

Really? I thought my 32GB flash one was the smallest. Maybe that's just
the smallest I could find over here.

 Can someone confirm whether this is all part of the internal memory?
 In other words, can /data/data/com.mypackage fill this memory
 (potentially).

It is not. At least not with how we would probably use the term.

System storage on my ARCHOS is 114MB right now. I have a bunch of apps
installed, but most are tiny book samples.

Internal storage is 30GB, of which about 20.5GB are presently
available, after I loaded some content on.

And, of course, while writing this email, I got another lovely
spontaneous reboot of the device...

 If so, does this mean there is a good chance that
 getExternalStorageDirectory() will quite often return null??? -
 because people will have less need to use an external SD card...

I haven't tried that yet, though I will make a point to do so next week.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with communicating Thread with progressBar

2009-11-14 Thread Lance Nanek

Is this what you are trying to do?
final Handler mHandler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
Log.i(TAG, Received message. Checking if location still 
null.);

if(location!=null){
Log.i(TAG, Location not null. Dismissing dialog.);
dismissDialog(DIALOG1_KEY);
} else {
Log.i(TAG, Location null. Sending delayed message to 
check again
later.);
sendEmptyMessageDelayed(0, 100);
}
}
};
showDialog(DIALOG1_KEY);
mHandler.sendEmptyMessageDelayed(0, 100);

No new thread needed. That said, why not just have whatever sets the
location to not be null also trigger the dialog to be dismissed? If it
is on another thread it can send the Location in a message and have
the assignment and dismiss happen on the UI thread just as easily as
the above causes the check to happen on the UI thread.

Re Looper#prepare and Looper#loop, you would only need to call those
if you created a Handler on your new thread. You are creating the
Handler on the thread that was creating your new thread. If that
thread is the UI thread, it doesn't need the looper calls because it
already has a message queue running. Looper#loop doesn't cause your
own code to loop anyway, it causes the code that gives out messages to
handlers to loop.

 The problem is as follows:
 progressBar is showing correctly. mHandler obtains the message but
 only once(for the first time). But I need to make it in loop(as
 Looper.loop should have worked in this case), so it calls mHandler
 handleMessage in every loop(but its not happening in this case).
 The outcome progressBar kept on rotating though the condition in the
 handleMessage (if(location!=null) )is getting satisfied in the mean
 time of the active progressbar.
 How can I make mHandle,sendEmptyMessage to call in each loop so I can
 check for this (if(location!=null)) condition.

 Any Suggestion would be very helpful

I am wondering how I might go about securing a paid app on Android.

I am thinking of selling the application from my own website via

[android-developers] Re: App name/icon problems on Hero after reboot

2009-11-14 Thread AngelOD

Hi,

I would just like to add here, that I have a Scandinavian HTC Hero,
and I've tried to recreate several of these errors, without luck, so
whatever it is, that causes it, I'd have to assume it's not in the
Scandinavian release of the firmware. Just in case someone wanted to
note that to HTC during one of (I imagine) countless emails to them,
since the fault is more than likely on their part, even if they say
they can't recreate it themselves.

Cheers,
Tristan

[android-developers] Re: Growing pains for Android developers??

2009-11-14 Thread gosh

I think you hit the 'nail on the head' Niko with your We can't judge
Google based on knowledge we DONT have. - and maybe its the legal
team who are driving the car.

The tech side of Android, including this group's info-feeders and
strokers of the many considerable egos amongst us, are Great - and
more power to them.
But, if a publisher is trying to build a business plan upon
development on Android, there are no available timeframes around the
marketing aspects, and no avenue to find out whether or not the
marketing aspects are in hand. I.e. Is there a marketing strategy for
Android at all? Publishers have to base any business plans on faith,
hope, hunches and hearsay.

E.g. Unlike you, many publishers cannot sell their applications 'at
all' (to experience the low volumes;) because they are from countries
that are not amongst the current 9 where publishers can. e.g.
Australia is still missing from that list. No one from Google can say
anything about that - I've tried many info channels to no avail. Not
just a time-envelope of when it may be added, but even whether it will
'ever' be added (e.g. Will ads within free apps supersede customer
payment for apps entirely? Will Chrome OS become the main game? Should
we be moving more development to Flash and away from Java? I.e. In
this info vacuum comes speculation). Its not the programmers here
whinging (at my company), its the Business Manager.

Stepping back from the fray several hundred yards for some perspective
on why people may grumble a bit (whether or not they are
'programmers') - It is a remarkable thing that a company such as
Google, which is largely built upon search, itself built upon
information produced by other people and other companies (web-site
content; scanned books, uploaded video, etc), does itself make so
little of its own information available - and keeping it from its
early adopter developers and publishers, of all people. Personally, I
am surprised at how many people don't 'whing' at all.


On Nov 14, 3:38 am, niko20 nikolatesl...@yahoo.com wrote:
 Ok, let me answer some of these myself.

 App sales sluggish - well android is still a growing platform, and yes
 the latest improvements to the app store have helped, as well as all
 the new phone releases as well, I'm seeing about double the orders per
 day as before. Not to mention that we finally will probably actually
 have customers that aren't also developers.

 ADP - you can just get a droid phone and develop with it. The only
 reason to have an ADP is so you can flash it with different ROMS. If
 you want to test against Android 2.0 you can just use a DROID to
 develop with. Any android device can be used for debugging and
 development.

 The Google market has improved over the last six months and will
 likely improve again. Having on 325 characters may seem like a
 restriction, but it does enable people's devices to download the data
 faster, as well as preventing too much spam in their comments (like
 keywords, and other garbage the is irrevlevant), that the apple Iphone
 app store suffers from. Some of the apps I've looked at on the IPhone
 store don't even say what they do in their description! It's usually a
 little TOO long winded!

 Rumor and conjecture - the rules and agreements between Google and
 developers are quite clearly stated in the Developer agreement. Some
 people want to read between the lines and have hissy fits about every
 little detail. Maybe that is just the way programmers are. But it's
 pretty much standard legal fare. A lot of what you may see on this
 board is just whining about small details that may only affect a
 minority of developers.

 The IPhone system has its own flaws as well (approval process, etc).
 And that system most likely is a take it or leave it agreement too. We
 can't judge Google based on knowledge we DONT have. Speculation is
 just that, speculation. I haven't seen any arguments that show the
 opposing platforms advantages yet (like how their agreements work,
 etc).

[android-developers] [Android-Java] Why String \0 is converted to [65533,65533]

2009-11-14 Thread Joes

All,
While I'm programming the Android SMTP code,I met a confused problem
with code similar as the following:
String str= \0 username \0 passwrd;
After executed the code, I found \0 is intepreted as two
undisplayable char.
Then I executed the folloing debug code:
String sZero = \0;
int iLen = sZero.length();
int iValue1 = (int)sZero.charAt(0);
int iValue2 = (int)sZero.charAt(1);
Log.w(ZERO, Zero String, Lenth=, iLen,  value1=, iValue1, 
value2=, iValue2);
What I get in screen is :
Zero String, Length=2 value1=65533 value2=65533.

Really confuse me, why \0 become [65533,65533] in my program?

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: How to launch the browser

2009-11-14 Thread anand

Hi guys,

I am trying to make an appwidget to be displayed when we click a
button.

I am having a simple application which has a button.

When the button is clicked,it will send a broadcast message.
I am implementing an appwidgetprovider class in the same application.

I have overridden the onReceive function in the appwidgetprovider
class as shown below:


@Override
public void onReceive ( Context context,Intent intent ) {

String action = intent.getAction();
String message=;
//String packagename=;
//int appwidgetid;
//String RESULT_OK = sucessfull;

Log.i(test, message received);

if( android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_ENABLED.equals ( 
action ) )
{

//String message;
Toast.makeText( context, Broadcast sucessfull...,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

if ( intent.hasExtra(broadcast.MESSAGE)) {

message = 
(String)intent.getCharSequenceExtra(broadcast.MESSAGE);
Toast.makeText( context, message, 
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

}



ComponentName component;
component = new ComponentName(context,receiver.class);


RemoteViews views = new 
RemoteViews(context.getPackageName
(),R.layout.widget_provider);
views.setTextViewText(R.id.message, message);
}
 }
}

I am able to see the toast messages but i am not able to see the
appwidget.

In the above code R.layout.widget_provider is the xml file which has
the appwidget-provider tag.
I have also mention this file as the resource file in the android
manifest file.

My questions are:
1.Is this code correct?
2.What should be the second parameter in the instantiation of
Remoteviews class?
3.What should be the first parameter in the setTextViewText function?

Please anybody help me on this...

[android-developers] Speech Recognition makes a beep when the user Cancels. This is bad.

2009-11-14 Thread GregM

If the user cancels the speech dialog, it makes a little beeping
sound.

You might think that beeping sounds is an innocent little thing, but
it broke my app.

See, after my app is done speaking, it starts listening again for the
user to get its attention. When the app beeps, it assumes this is the
user getting the apps attention. Hence, the app gets into an infinite
loop where the user cancels, it hears the cancel beep, it brings up
the speech dialog again, the user cancels again, the app beeps, the
app brings up the speech dialog again

My question: How do I make the speech dialog stop beeping?

Bigger question: In general, how do I gain better control over the
android speech dialog? There's nothing I can do currently, but launch
it.

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Documentation deficiencies.

2009-11-14 Thread Paul

I agree totally with what Tim wrote. Lots of deficiencies and
undocumented things. I just spent 2 days trying to figure out why my
ItemizedOverlay subclass was not rendering OverlayItems that had their
own marker. Finally found something that mentioned setting the bounds
of the marker. Totally undocumented. They could at least provide their
source code so we could figure this stuff out ourselves.

Also, on a similar topic (poor documentation) I've been trying to
figure out how to get a MapView zoom controls to stay visible and not
disappear after a few seconds. Seems like you have to call this
undocumented method:  mapView.getZoomButtonsController() and then call
setVisible(true) on that object : mapView.getZoomButtonsController
().setVisible(true); Of course for some weird reason the user still
has to touch the map once before the zoom controls appear.

On Nov 3, 5:20 pm, Tim Hutt tdh...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi, this has been noted by many people previously, but I thought I'd
 have a little rant about it. Simply put, the Android SDK documentation
 is shockingly incomplete. I can't believe Google doesn't have the
 resources to employ someone full-time to work on it. Here are just a
 few examples:

 1. You need to call ItemizedOverlay.populate() even if you have added
 no items. This is mentioned no-where, and I've even seen people create
 crazy work-arounds because they didn't know it.

 2. populate() isn't explained at all well. Let's compare a few
 function descriptions with what *I* would write:

 ItemizedOverlay intro, current version:

 A base class for an Overlay which consists of a list of OverlayItems.
 This handles sorting north-to-south for drawing, creating span bounds,
 drawing a marker for each point, and maintaining a focused item. It
 also matches screen-taps to items, and dispatches Focus-change events
 to an optional listener. 

 My version:

 ItemizedOverlay is an Overlay that allows you to easily draw small
 collections of [OverlayItem]s on top of the map. Typically the items
 will be some kind of pin or marker. A default [Drawable] to use can be
 passed to the constructor, and individual [OverlayItem]s can have
 specific [Drawable]s. This class handles sorting the items
 north-to-south so that the overlap as expected, and drawing a marker
 for each point. It also maintains a focused item, matches screen-taps
 to items, and dispatches Focus-change events to an optional listener.
 Typically it is subclassed and used as described below. See the
 documentation for populate() and createItem() for further information
 on how to specify the [OverlayItem]s. then I would give an example of
 deriving a simple class from ItemizedOverlay, but I'm not paid to
 write this so meh

 ItemizedOverlay.populate(), current version:

 Utility method to perform all processing on a new ItemizedOverlay.
 Subclasses provide Items through the createItem(int) method. The
 subclass should call this as soon as it has data [note that this is
 *wrong*!], before anything else gets called.

 My version:

 ItemizedOverlay maintains an internal cache of [OverlayItem]s in
 order to draw them efficiently. This function must be called in order
 to populate the internal cache. Note that it must be called before the
 draw() method is even if you have added no items. When it is called it
 first uses ItemizedOverlay.size() to determine how many [OverlayItem]s
 there are to draw. You must override this method in your subclass.
 Once the number of items has been determined it calls
 ItemizedOverlay.createItem(int i) for i=0 to size() in order to
 retrieve each [OverlayItem]. These items are then sorted from north to
 south to facilitate drawing. Whenever you change the items to be drawn
 you must call populate() in order to update the cache.

 Actually I've just noted that that description isn't quite true and
 has caused a bug in my program - size() is apparently only ever called
 once. This is pretty stupid but hey, my point stands.

 3. At http://developmentality.net/there is a note about how setMarker() 
 doesn't work unless you set the bounds on the drawable.
 This should clearly be mentioned in the documentation.
 4. fill_parent, wrap_content, gravity and so on aren't adequately
 explained *at all*.
 5. Not a documentation issue, but boundCenterBottom() should be really
 be public.
 6. I strongly encourage you to look at the documentatio for
 ProgressDialog. It is truly 
 shocking:http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ProgressDialog.htm...()

 I know there are a lot of classes, but *really*.

 7. There are so many classes where the documentation is the type that
 I would write *to myself* as I was writing the code. e.g. Bundle is
 described as A mapping from String values to various Parcelable
 types.. That's it. Helpful.

 This mailing list is clearly too high volume for anyone from Google to
 read, but I feel better for having ranted. Back me up here people.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Help! Force close after renaming package

2009-11-14 Thread TreKing

To get the stack trace, just look at the LogCat view in eclipse when the
program crashes (sometimes the debugger stops at the crash point so you may
have to continue execution until it shows up).

Alternatively, run the DDMS tool a select your running AVD to see the
LogCat.

I haven't really looked at the examples in much depth, but aren't
LunarLander and Snake (the only) game projects? Maybe that has something to
do with it? Maybe try searching the entire project for the package name and
see if it's been hard-coded somehow? Getting the stack-trace from the LogCat
is definitely your best bet to get a lead though.

 then I ran the package using a 1.6 AVD (G1)

Here are two possibilities:

1. You store on the phone the barcode as an alphanumeric value and a bar
code type, then generate the image on the phone. That would require a
bar code imaging JAR, and while those probably exist for Java, I expect
they may require some massaging to work on Android.

2. You store on the phone the actual barcode image, obtained from a Web
service or something. This has the advantage of being a better-traveled
road. Then, you'd just use an ImageView, or the 2D graphics API, to
display the image on screen.

The only thing I see potentially being tricky with scenario #2 is
getting the image size right, taking into account different screen
densities. And, you have that same problem with scenario #1.

[android-developers] Debugging on HTC Tattoo

2009-11-14 Thread Aasha

I have just got myself a new HTC Tattoo which is NOT carrier locked.
Now I'm unable to find out how to use that to debug my application.
Is is possible to do that on an unlocked HTC Tattoo? If so, can
someone point me to some resource outlining how to do that?

Thanks and Regards

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to test if app is shown on Market for all screensizes

2009-11-14 Thread Klaus Kartou

Our app use the following permissions:
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION

   - android.permission.INTERNET
   - android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
   - android.permission.CAMERA
   - android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
   - android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

But why should the camera permission make the app not show up on market on
HTC Tattoo?
I´m confused about this :)

 Hi Phil,

 Search for seeingwithsound, and you should find The vOICe for Android

 One wild guess is that your android.permission.SET_ORIENTATION might
 play a role (I do not use it), because at least on HTC's G1/ADP1 there
 are orientation limitations in the camera preview, and perhaps HTC
 decided to become more picky about this for camera apps.

 Thanks

Well, there are a seemingly infinite number of barcode standards, each
with different line lengths, widths, etc. You don't just need a barcode
font -- you need one that handles whichever standard(s) your app needs.

Some are in fonts, but the last I looked (years ago), there were few
freely available fonts. I recall trying to figure out how to add USPS
delivery barcodes to mailing labels and giving up in frustration.

But, again, that was a few years ago, and something new may have arisen
since then.

I can tell you that my unlocked HTC Tattoo is picked up by adb and DDMS
fine on Ubuntu. All I had to do was enable USB debugging (Settings

[android-developers] Does MotionEvent.getEdgeFlags() ever return anything other than 0 ?

2009-11-14 Thread davemac

I was expecting the getEdgeFlags() method of MotionEvent to tell me
when a MotionEvent had reached the edge of something, but the value
returned from getEdgeFlags() is *always* zero. Is this the expected
behavior? The documentation says that the flags indicate when a touch
has reached the edge of the display. I've tried this on a real device
and in the emulator, and the location coordinates never quite reach
the edge of the display, and getEdgeFlags() always returns 0. By
never quite reach I mean that if dragging a finger off the left edge
of the display, the smallest X I got was 2. Reaching the edge of the
view doesn't seem to change the value returned either.

I suppose I could set the flags myself using setEdgeFlags() using
calculations with known dimensions of the object whose edges I care
about. Is that how it's supposed to be used? Is this broken for now?

Thanks for your help.

However, you can implement an option menu generally on the WebView, then
try calling getHitTestResult() on the WebView, which may give you the

it will work.

[android-developers] Re: Stacking a ListView with other widgets below?

One more question on this - it seems like if we use a header or footer
view - then our activity can not add any other views? Example:

 LinearLayout
   ListView // with header and footer views.
 /LinearLayout

the above works perfectly with focus getting routed correctly etc. The
focus acts strangely in this case though:

  LinearLayout
LinearLayout
  Button
/LinearLayout
ListView
  /LinearLayout

if the list view has focusable items - then the focus jumps back up to
the top LinearLayout-button after hitting down key again. This is kind
of strange, should this be happening? To explain further:

  LinearLayout
LinearLayout
  Button
/LinearLayout
ListView
  // listview is composed of:
  TextView
  TextView
  Button
  TextView
/ListView
  /LinearLayout

so focus is fine up until it hits the row with the Button. The button
gets highlighted (since itemsCanFocus=true), but then hitting the down
arrow key again jumps focus up to the top linear layout button,
instead of continuing focus to the next row of the ListView. Normally
I could just use a header view instead, but is there an undocumented
rule in which we cannot add other views to our layout if using a
ListView with setItemsCanFocus=true?

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: How to test if app is shown on Market for all screensizes

2009-11-14 Thread blindfold

Hi Klaus,

Did you check if my camera app shows up on the Market for the HTC
Tattoo?

My The vOICe for Android app (search for seeingwithsound on the
Market) uses

uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=4 /
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.CAMERA/
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.WAKE_LOCK/
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION/
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION/
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET/
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE/
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE/

and it shows up on the Market when I search for seeingwithsound with
my ADP1.
I'll be interested if it too fails to show up with the HTC Tattoo?

 But why should the camera permission make the app not show up on market on
 HTC Tattoo?
 I´m confused about this :)

  Hi Phil,

  Search for seeingwithsound, and you should find The vOICe for Android

  One wild guess is that your android.permission.SET_ORIENTATION might
  play a role (I do not use it), because at least on HTC's G1/ADP1 there
  are orientation limitations in the camera preview, and perhaps HTC
  decided to become more picky about this for camera apps.

  Thanks

  Hi.

  I've read the new API specifications for the BluetoothSocket and i
  encountered some unresolved issues regarding the connection
  limitations for BluetoothServerSocket.

  At
 http://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothAda...
  there is a description of the Creation of BluetoothServerSocket.It
  says there that it creates a new listening RFCOMMsocketfor incoming
  connections. One should use accept to get the connected
  BluetoothSocket from this ServerSocket. My questions are :
  1. What happens if a connection is established before accept is
  called? Will it hold and wait for an accept command or dropped until
  an accept command is invoked and allow reconnection?
  2. Can more than one connections exist to a single
  BluetoothSocketServer?

  Athttp://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothSer...
  the accept method is described. My questions are :
  3. Will i get a connected BluetoothSocket for a connection which was
  established prior to calling the accept method?
  4. What happens if after the first accept, i do another accept? Will i
  get another incoming connection? Or will the BluetoothServerSocket
  block any incoming connections until the previous connection is
  disconnected?
  5. If Connection Queue is available - what is the limit? how many
  connections will be held in Queue ?

  5. Does the BluetoothServerSocket support multiple connections from
  different devices? What about multiple connections from the same
  device?

  Athttp://code.google.com/p/apps-for-android/source/browse/trunk/BTClick...
  there is a sample application demonstrating the use of BluetoothSocket
  and BluetoothServerSocket. This application creates 7 different
  servers (different UUID's) and listens to 7 incoming connections on 7
  different servers. In addition, this sample closes the
  BluetoothServerSocket once a single connection is made to each of the
  servers. This does not show the behavior of the API as described in
  the official API documentation.

  I would appreciate any thoughts or ideas you have about this issue.

  Thanks,
  Chen Ganir.

[android-developers] How can I select or click on an item in a ListView?

2009-11-14 Thread lau ka man

As I mentioned in the email subject,
I want to select an item (e.g. Department of Human Resource Management) in
my ListView.
And you can see that:
I had try to use
setClickable(true), setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE),
setFocusable(true), setFocusableInTouchMode(true),
no matter I use touch screen to click on the item or use the scroll ball on
my mouse to select the item, it also doesn't work.
Is there any mistakes in my coding?
I hope someone can give me some ideas what I should do.
because I am a beginner for developing Android application.

And the following is my coding:
package com.example.abc;

import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;

public class DeptList extends ListActivity {
 int position;
 /** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle bund) {
super.onCreate(bund);

setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapterString(this,
  android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, DEPARTMENTS));
getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);
getListView().setClickable(true);
getListView().setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE);

This is problem is probably related to this ListView bug:

On Nov 14, 1:07 pm, Mark Wyszomierski mar...@gmail.com wrote:
 One more question on this - it seems like if we use a header or footer
 view - then our activity can not add any other views? Example:

  LinearLayout
    ListView // with header and footer views.
  /LinearLayout

 the above works perfectly with focus getting routed correctly etc. The
 focus acts strangely in this case though:

   LinearLayout
     LinearLayout
       Button
     /LinearLayout
     ListView
   /LinearLayout

 if the list view has focusable items - then the focus jumps back up to
 the top LinearLayout-button after hitting down key again. This is kind
 of strange, should this be happening? To explain further:

   LinearLayout
     LinearLayout
       Button
     /LinearLayout
     ListView
       //listviewis composed of:
       TextView
       TextView
       Button
       TextView
     /ListView
   /LinearLayout

 so focus is fine up until it hits the row with the Button. The button
 gets highlighted (since itemsCanFocus=true), but then hitting the down
 arrow key again jumps focus up to the top linear layout button,
 instead of continuing focus to the next row of theListView. Normally
 I could just use a header view instead, but is there an undocumented
 rule in which we cannot add other views to our layout if using aListViewwith 
 setItemsCanFocus=true?

  Button btn1 = new Button(this);

When I use the scroll ball the navigate to the footer, the entire

or do users just have to touch with their finger?

2009-11-14 Thread Micah

I am working on a similar project over at:
http://code.google.com/p/google-authenticator-for-android/

The end goal is to simulate the Google Account Authenticator found on
the Droid so that developers can use Google Accounts on their AVDs, as
well as people with 2.0 phones without Google Accounts (since the
Google Account isn't part of the AOSP, like Google Maps, Gmail, etc.).

It looks like we are at *about* the same point in writing the
authenticators, ie: not very far. :P  I do have some TODO comments
throughout that talk about some of the questions that I still have as
to how things work though.

[android-developers] Archos/Android development

2009-11-14 Thread Lee

So I started porting an app over for the Archos developer 'contest'.
Got the skin, switched back to 1.5. Perhaps someone, somewhere has
some small experience with developing for the Internet Tablet 5

- I have no 'extended status bar' showing on the emulator, which the
appslib document advises us to shrink our heights by 48 pixels for. If
I have a SurfaceView, surely the dimensions of that already take into
account the status bar. Or is the extended base a particularly
horrible kludge that overlaps the accessible screen area ?

- is there a developer forum somewhere, or a FAQ or *anything* except
that single page on appslib.com ?

- any idea where to download AppsLib.apk to try it on the emulator ?
The link on appslib.com gives me 404.

I'm sure these questions will come up a lot in the next days as people
port over for their Christmas gift.

TIA!

Lee

 final GridView popupview = (GridView) inflater.inflate
 (R.layout.gridviewpopup, null, false);
 popupview.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this));

 I would like this GridView to popup on a button click. Also inside of
 my activity's onCreate, I have:

 final Button addButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.add);
  addButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
             public void onClick(View v) {
                 PopupWindow mwindow = new PopupWindow(popupview, 100,
 100);
                 mwindow.showAtLocation(findViewById(R.id.main),
 Gravity.CENTER, 100, 100);
                 mwindow.setFocusable(true);
             }
  });

 On button click, I am throwing a ClassCastException from
 GridView.onMeasure(int, int).

 Can anyone please explain to me what I am doing wrong?

 Thanks.

Firstly, here is the APK: http://files.appslib.com/apps/marketplace/appslib.apk

Is that the one giving the 404 error? Its working me me.

As for testing, I guess it would be best to try and find someone with
a archos device and try it proper.

I do hope my applications get validated :)

 appslib document advises us to shrink our heights by 48 pixels for. If
 I have a SurfaceView, surely the dimensions of that already take into
 account the status bar. Or is the extended base a particularly
 horrible kludge that overlaps the accessible screen area ?

 - is there a developer forum somewhere, or a FAQ or *anything* except
 that single page on appslib.com ?

 The link on appslib.com gives me 404.

 I'm sure these questions will come up a lot in the next days as people

[android-developers] Is there a list of standard Intent specifications?

I'm looking into getting my application to show up when the user tries
to 'share' a picture via the Gallery application I can't, however,
find any information about how exactly to go about this.

I get that I need to declare an intent filter for the SHARE action,
what I can't seem to find is how the Gallery wants to send out the
selected image.

[android-developers] Re: How to test if app is shown on Market for all screensizes

Wait, so people are reporting problems with the CAMERA permission?
Let me guess, if you need that permission, then the app isn't shown to
phones that don't have cameras?

What if the app *can* use the camera, but doesn't *need* to use the
camera.  What if it runs just fine on devices without cameras.  What
if my app can use GPS, but runs ok without it?  Network connectivity?
This sounds pretty broken to me.

Why not just let the user decide if they want the app or not?

[android-developers] Re: Choosing Dev Phone

I don't know if someone else mentioned this, but I want to stress that
99% of developers do NOT need a dev phone.  If you just want to write
android apps in Java and run them, any phone will do this.  Dev phones
are for if you want to do OS-level development.  I'd much prefer a
phone that can download any app to one that can't.  I have a G1 and a
Google IO phone, and not being able to see my own paid apps on the
market can be a hassle.

[android-developers] BAck to Activity after WebView

2009-11-14 Thread toby

Hello,

I've been searching and looking for this answer for quite some time
now. I want to display a little HTML in a webView.

When the User read the HTML, he's supposed to use the back button to
go back to the previous activity. However, it closes the App.

How can I make it go back to the last Activity? It would also be ok to
display a soft back button or something.

Here my code

[snip]
WebView webview = new WebView(this);
setContentView(webview);
webview.canGoBack();
webview.loadData(worker.getHtmlResult(), text/html, utf-8);

TelephonyManager telManager = (TelephonyManager)

telManager.getDeviceId() will give you the device ID (IMEI for cell

to you). We already have developed security system exactly as you ask.

[android-developers] Optional permissions (revisited)

2009-11-14 Thread Jonas Petersson

Hi all,

I know this was discussed on this list about a year ago, but as far as I 
could tell it ended up with Dianne saying that it may be done, but was 
not a priority at the time.

Situation:
I've had a few requests from users of one of my apps that they would 
prefer to disable for instance access to the phonebook and GPS (for 
paranoia presumably). This would disable some interesting features in my 
app, but it would still be useful in simple cases.

As it is now, I'd have to release two versions of the application with 
99% of the code identical (could probably make it 100% really with some 
effort and just have different manifests). This is suboptimal. Having 
certian permissions listed as optional in the manifest and then checking 
for them during execution would be a lot better.

My opinion is:
Most users don't seem to be particularly bothered so having the current 
intall dialog as a default would be fine, but then add a button for 
detailed tuning, where permissions that are flagged as optional can be 
toggled. (Toggling these for an already installed app is a separate 
question.)

Other opinions?

Best / Jonas

 This is a completely separate issue, and known behavior in the Android

 shortcut to a specific activity inside of the app.  If the updated app has
 changed the class of this activity, the shortcut will still exist referring

Read the documentation:

If it's a permissions issue try running `abd kill-server` followed by
`adb devices` as root, if your device shows you can either leave it
be, and switch back to a regular user and commence with debugging etc,
or set up permissions which is discussed within the documentation.

[android-developers] Re: Pause game

2009-11-14 Thread davemac

Not sure exactly what you're asking here, so here goes:

If you're asking how the user can tell the game to pause, then you
need some sort of control in the UI that the user can invoke to
trigger the pause action in your game. This could be a very small
button, maybe in the corner of your game that the user can click on.
Or maybe it's a special key that the user can press (assuming a
physical keyboard here), or maybe a menu from hitting the Menu button
on the device. As soon as the event happens you can stop the game
action, present the choices to the user and decide what to do from
there.

If you're asking how to save the game parameters so it picks up where
the user left off, then you should look at SharedPreferences. These
can be read and written to from code (see SharedPreferences.Editor),
with or without actually creating a preferences GUI for your
application. Save whatever values you need to save in onPause(), and
read them back in onResume(). Note that the very first time you start
up your app, there won't be any saved values so provide appropriate
defaults if you don't find any saved values.

Sorry I didn't realize you were referring to the all apps drawer?  Is this

Re: [android-developers] Does MotionEvent.getEdgeFlags() ever return anything other than 0 ?

I don't know what device you are running on, but on things like the G1 and
myTouch, the touch screen isn't able to accurately detect locations at the
far edges of the screen, so when you reach that area the location will be
pinned to the very far edge and the flag set.  Note that this is referring
to the edge of the -screen-, not wherever your view is.

On Sat, Nov 14, 2009 at 9:16 AM, davemac davemac...@gmail.com wrote:

 I was expecting the getEdgeFlags() method of MotionEvent to tell me
 when a MotionEvent had reached the edge of something, but the value
 returned from getEdgeFlags() is *always* zero. Is this the expected
 behavior? The documentation says that the flags indicate when a touch
 has reached the edge of the display. I've tried this on a real device
 and in the emulator, and the location coordinates never quite reach
 the edge of the display, and getEdgeFlags() always returns 0. By
 never quite reach I mean that if dragging a finger off the left edge
 of the display, the smallest X I got was 2. Reaching the edge of the
 view doesn't seem to change the value returned either.

 I suppose I could set the flags myself using setEdgeFlags() using
 calculations with known dimensions of the object whose edges I care
 about. Is that how it's supposed to be used? Is this broken for now?

 Thanks for your help.
