[android-beginners] Re: Hello World not even running in Emulator

2009-11-29 Thread Fred Grott(Android Developer, http://mobilebytes.wordpress.com)
My simple trick is setting up an android  project in my workspace
called emulatorstartup..

Highlight project with mouse, in eclipse the run as..config profile
screen..create a new emulator runtime config for project..under AVD
choice checkbox the AVD you want and click start emulator button..

Once you have that setup you can start the emulator at the begin of
your workday and do not need to  restart it..

 How do you do that?

 2009/11/23 razor razorjac...@gmail.com

  To save a time, don't start the emulator each time you want to run
  your app.
  Run emulator once, at the beginning and the only update your app on
  the emlator (eclipse will do all of that for you)

[android-beginners] Re: why Java, not Python?

2009-11-22 Thread Fred Grott(Android Developer, http://mobilebytes.wordpress.com)
It has to do with how scripted oop languages are implemented..in tis
case Python is implemented via C.

Most mobile app languages base don C have higher learning curves and
break easier..such as Symbian C, and Apple's own Objective C for
iPhone..

While the learning curve to python might be lower keeping it somehow
working on mobile its a very daunting task


Java was originally designed for small devices..

  Again, not trying to start any arguments, just curious if
  anyone has any background on this.

 Well consider that Google AppEngine started in python and then added
 java support.  In some ways, the python version is more advanced.

 I don't know why java was chosen but you have to believe that python
 was looked at seriously as well and for some reason ... I don't know
 the exact reasoning though.

2009-11-20 Thread Fred Grott(Android Developer, http://mobilebytes.wordpress.com)
While its not possible to  replace in-call screen it is possible to
over-lay some screen on top of it..

Several apps already do this to offer to reverse look up of number ..

 In general, the procedure you give is a useful one. Unfortunately, for
 this particular problem (Eclipse complaining that R.main.java does not
 resolve), that procedure will bring in the wrong 'R'.

 Instead, what the user needs to do is get the IDE to launch the
 emulator. That will rebuild the object 'R.main.java' from 'main.xml',
 forcing the IDE to recognize R.main.java.

 I have been told that this is an Eclipse bug.

 Now the hard part is getting the IDE to launch the emulator. I haven't
 figured this one out entirely myself yet. My temporary workaround is
 to close the project, delete the project, and start all over again
 after closing and relaunching Eclipse.

 Clearly this workaround is not acceptable for a project of substantial
 size. But it is tolerable for going through the Android tutorials. I'm
 still waiting for someone to cover a more usable workaround in this
 forum, which really is the ideal place for it.

 Finally, this question (or some one of the many minor variants of it)
 has been asked often enough, the answer really belongs in the FAQ.
 After all, by now, it is clear: it really is a frequently asked
 question.

  If you are using Eclipse as your IDE, put the cursor on the R and hit
  Ctrl + Shift + O (the letter O).  That will automatically add the
  needed import statement.

You can install app as well in a t-mobile without SIM card. You can
install either from eclipse or by downloading the apk file.

 I've got an unlocked t-mobile g1 and it works fine without the sim. I can

 installing apps on it but I don't see why it won't work.

 I got it unlocked directly from t-mobile (a friend sold it to me since he
 was getting the new g2), if you like I can try installing an app into it
 using eclipse and let you know.

[android-beginners] Help! Android Prob.

2009-05-12 Thread Android Developer

Hi everyone,

I am creating android application using eclipse ganemede. The creating
of application hello android was successful, however, when I
compiled and run it, I got stuck at loading the application into the
android emulator.

I can view the emulator screen with the word ANDROID on it but my
application is missing.
The console on eclipse was like
[2009-05-12 01:38:34 - HelloAndroid] --
[2009-05-12 01:38:34 - HelloAndroid] Android Launch!

I waited for 2 hrs but no surprises. Any useful thoughts ?

Thanks
Dev.
