[android-developers] Android embedded hardware
I'm looking for some resouces/links for embedded hardware that runs Android. I've found a couple of hardware development boards such as the dotphone offering and some custom projects across the web. But these are more directed towards phone development. I'm looking for something smaller/simpler that can be used in embeded systems. Possibly an 'out-of-the-box' kit form that runs core android but has axtra modules for optional touch display, optional digital/analogue inputs, wireless g support etc. So are there any such offererings available now that we have real hardware out in the wild?

[android-developers] Re: Getting user's phone number
I second this. On the G1, it returns a bogus phone number (somewhat similar to that on the emulator). Here's the code: TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager) activity.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE); String phoneId = tm.getLine1Number(); I've got the following in the manifest file: uses-permission android:name=android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE / The value I receive is: 1 (857) 445-3609 which is _not_ the MSISDN or the phone number.

[android-developers] Re: Lunar Lander game loop (was: Re: [android-developers] Re: How fast is the T-Mobile G1?)
Thanks again, yes, something like that - I realize the question was
more for a game development forum, not here, sorry.
Basically I'd like the game loop to call updatePhysics, say, exactly
30 times/sec but render only when there's anything to render, sleep to
preserve battery otherwise.

Thanks to you and Romain!
So my follow up question is what is the maximum number of vertical
syncs per second of a G1 phone?
In other words, if the drawing code is really fast (e.g. if I don't
invalidate the entire screen but just a tiny rectangle), what am I
supposed to do in order to make an animation run at no more than N
frames per second? The reason behind this is this: I don't wanna draw
a frame that has already been drawn, so I'll keep a list of active
or dirty objects (dirtyness determined in updatePhysics or
whatever), but in this case, I'll just spin the CPU waiting for the
next game update which will invalidate some objects. Hence the initial
questioning of the game's loop - what if the game's scene has to be
drawn in less than the max FPS for the device?
I hope you'll understand what I mean - it's 3am here and I'm not a
native speaker :)

Speaking of which, has anyone noticed Lunar Lander's game loop. It's a

while (running)
{
updatePhysics();
draw();
}
No shit batman? At what FPS? The max possible on the device? Redrawing a
frame possibly hundreds of times per second w/o the physics even being
updated at all?
I expected to see some sort of a game loop with constant game update rate
and some target FPS (not precise of course) and some sleeping eventually
so
CPU's not utilized at 100% because this is a MOBILE DEVICE for crying out
loud, and this sucks battery, and the sample is supposed to be a
reference
implementation with best CODING practices, etc. (i.e. fuck graphics,
gameplay, etc.), *right*?

I have no idea about the winimage tool, but Android provides the mksdcard command in the tools directory of your SDK installation.

[android-developers] contacts.extensions
Hi guys, I'm trying to extend the contacts by adding additional fields to contacts.people using contacts.extensions. My only problem is that have no idea how to query the contacts.people using a join with contacts.extensions. I'm not trying to modify/extend the contacts provider. One very very ugly solution would be to query on contacts.extensions and using the person ids to query the contacts.people (manual join) ... The idea is to create an ListActivity which displays only the extended contacts. I would like to be able to create a content provider that uses directly the contacts.db (from the content provider) where i could use my join queries... but from what I know this is not possible. Do the content providers support joins? Or is there another way to create this kind of joins? One more thing... How can I use Contacts.People.Extensions?

[android-developers] startService() fails
Hello,
I want to share an example Service in Android. The AIDL-file looks
like this:
package dom.da;
interface RNS {
int[] getRandomNumbers(int amount);
}
I created the RNS Interface and implemented it in RemoteService.java:
package dom.da;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.os.RemoteException;
public class RemoteService extends Service {
// implement the interface
private static final RNS.Stub mBinder = new RNS.Stub(){
@Override
public int[] getRandomNumbers(int amount) throws
RemoteException {
if (amount 0)
return null;
int[] rc = new int[amount];
for (;amount 0; amount--)
rc[amount] = 0;
return rc;
}
};
// we only service one innterface, so return it
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return mBinder;
}
}
Now I try to start the service in RNS_Service.java:
package dom.da;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ComponentName;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class RNS_Service extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setClassName(dom.da, RemoteService);
ComponentName compName = startService(i);
if (compName == null)
{
Log.e(RNS_Service, startService() failed!);
}
}
}
My AndroidManifest is as follows:
manifest
xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=dom.da
android:versionCode=1
android:versionName=1.0.0
application
android:icon=@drawable/icon
android:label=@string/app_name
activity
android:name=.RNS_Service
android:label=@string/app_name
intent-filter

android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN/
category
android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER/
/intent-filter
/activity
service android:name=RemoteService android:exported=true
android:enabled=true/
/application
/manifest
This looks like pretty basic stuff, but startService allways returns
null. Is the way I set the component
of the service correct as in i.setClassName(dom.da,
RemoteService)? Any other errors?
All AIDL examples I find on the net are either too complicated or
written for an older version
of the SDK.
Thanks,
Martin

tile data from which a map is constructed. If that file is missing,
well, then no map will be rendered of course.
I don't know why my application package is missing that file. This
should be handled by the runtime of course. I will now try to manually
copy that file over from another (working) package to my package and
check if that'll fix it.

[android-developers] Re: Lunar Lander game loop (was: Re: [android-developers] Re: How fast is the T-Mobile G1?)
Actually the correct way is not to lock in the number of updates to
physics at a constant rate but instead to have the physics themselves
be defined as a rate. For example, if you want to have a player
moving at a rate of 1 virtual foot per second (let's say that's 5
pixels on screen for a 2d game), you would have the physics update
take into account the last position at the last update time and then
figure out where they should be given the current update time. That
way if there are more or less calls to updatePhysics, the player will
continue moving at a predictable, constant rate based on time, not
tics. More tics at this point will only smooth out the movement and
this is the preferred way to handle different processor speeds.
I used tic-rate on my game which tries to lock the game in at 20 tics
per second but if for my next one I will be using time-based movement
rates like I discussed.
Also - Action games are going to suck 100% of the CPU. There really
isn't enough CPU to do simple physics and redraws and cap out at the
refresh rate. Unless you want a choppy game, you're going to want to
get as many updates in as possible.
On Oct 29, 4:28 am, Stoyan Damov [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Thanks again, yes, something like that - I realize the question was
more for a game development forum, not here, sorry.
Basically I'd like the game loop to call updatePhysics, say, exactly
30 times/sec but render only when there's anything to render, sleep to
preserve battery otherwise.

If you want to throttle your updates to something less than the screen

looking for?

Thanks to you and Romain!
So my follow up question is what is the maximum number of vertical
syncs per second of a G1 phone?
In other words, if the drawing code is really fast (e.g. if I don't
invalidate the entire screen but just a tiny rectangle), what am I
supposed to do in order to make an animation run at no more than N
frames per second? The reason behind this is this: I don't wanna draw
a frame that has already been drawn, so I'll keep a list of active
or dirty objects (dirtyness determined in updatePhysics or
whatever), but in this case, I'll just spin the CPU waiting for the
next game update which will invalidate some objects. Hence the initial
questioning of the game's loop - what if the game's scene has to be
drawn in less than the max FPS for the device?
I hope you'll understand what I mean - it's 3am here and I'm not a
native speaker :)

while (running)

updatePhysics();

No shit batman? At what FPS? The max possible on the device? Redrawing a
frame possibly hundreds of times per second w/o the physics even being
updated at all?
I expected to see some sort of a game loop with constant game update
rate
and some target FPS (not precise of course) and some sleeping
eventually so
CPU's not utilized at 100% because this is a MOBILE DEVICE for crying

loud, and this sucks battery, and the sample is supposed to be a

[android-developers] G1 still image capture question
Do the hard-coded SDK 1.0 r1 kCannedJpegWidth (=213) and kCannedJpegHeight (=350) restrictions at http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=camera/libcameraservice/CannedJpeg.h http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=camera/libcameraservice/CameraHardwareStub.cpp for a still image size of 213 x 350 also apply to the T-Mobile G1 camera? So, can one only take 213 x 350 still image snapshots with the G1? Or can one (only) apply G1's native 2048 x 1536 for its 3.2 megapixel camera? In other words, what works with the G1? I have to know what to hard-code for lack of camera querying methods in Android. (Strictly speaking one can fool the check if (w != kCannedJpegWidth h != kCannedJpegHeight) a little bit by changing one of the two image dimensions, e.g., using 400 x 350, but in the emulator this does not take effect because the captured image is built-in.)

[android-developers] Re: Lunar Lander game loop (was: Re: [android-developers] Re: How fast is the T-Mobile G1?)
Let me try to explain again - I don't want the # of updates to be ==
the # of redraws, and I'm fine with a variable # of game updates/sec,
provided that this number is greater than the fastest movement of a
sprite (e.g. 100 updates/sec for a sprite which moves at 100 px/sec).
updatePhysics will surely take the elapsed time between the last game
tick and this one, *but* then, after updatePhysics exits, if there's
no object to be redrawn (e.g. no sprite moved), I don't want to draw,
and then again I don't want to enter the next game loop either because
I don't need more than N game updates/sec.
It's OK though, I have an idea of the game loop.
Thanks to everyone who replied this thread.
Cheers

Actually the correct way is not to lock in the number of updates to
physics at a constant rate but instead to have the physics themselves
be defined as a rate. For example, if you want to have a player
moving at a rate of 1 virtual foot per second (let's say that's 5
pixels on screen for a 2d game), you would have the physics update
take into account the last position at the last update time and then
figure out where they should be given the current update time. That
way if there are more or less calls to updatePhysics, the player will
continue moving at a predictable, constant rate based on time, not
tics. More tics at this point will only smooth out the movement and
this is the preferred way to handle different processor speeds.
I used tic-rate on my game which tries to lock the game in at 20 tics
per second but if for my next one I will be using time-based movement
rates like I discussed.
Also - Action games are going to suck 100% of the CPU. There really
isn't enough CPU to do simple physics and redraws and cap out at the
refresh rate. Unless you want a choppy game, you're going to want to
get as many updates in as possible.

Thanks again, yes, something like that - I realize the question was
more for a game development forum, not here, sorry.
Basically I'd like the game loop to call updatePhysics, say, exactly
30 times/sec but render only when there's anything to render, sleep to
preserve battery otherwise.

If you want to throttle your updates to something less than the screen

looking for?

Thanks to you and Romain!
So my follow up question is what is the maximum number of vertical
syncs per second of a G1 phone?
In other words, if the drawing code is really fast (e.g. if I don't
invalidate the entire screen but just a tiny rectangle), what am I
supposed to do in order to make an animation run at no more than N
frames per second? The reason behind this is this: I don't wanna draw
a frame that has already been drawn, so I'll keep a list of active
or dirty objects (dirtyness determined in updatePhysics or
whatever), but in this case, I'll just spin the CPU waiting for the
next game update which will invalidate some objects. Hence the initial
questioning of the game's loop - what if the game's scene has to be
drawn in less than the max FPS for the device?
I hope you'll understand what I mean - it's 3am here and I'm not a

[android-developers] Re: howto debug apps with more than one process
Jakob- It may be possible to do this with the SDK, but I am not enough of an SDK expert to know for sure. However, you might find it easier to simply develop/debug your Service in the same process. Once it's running and is fairly stable, you can try making it remote. The calling conventions are essentially the same for local remote processes; The primary difference is that you have more restrictions with a remote process, since everything has to go through a binder (no direct object references or method calls, and all data has to be parcelable). But you can make calls to your local service using the binder-based interface and it will still work properly. Hope this helps. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: OS Details
Something like this will give you the available space on the SD card:
StatFs stats = new StatFs(/sdcard);
int space = stats.getAvailableBlocks() * stats.getBlockSize();
Looking at the Build class will give you some information on the Android
build and device, e.g.:
String buildInfo() {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
builder.append(BOARD: ); builder.append(Build.BOARD);
builder.append(\nBRAND: ); builder.append(Build.BRAND);
builder.append(\nDEVICE: ); builder.append(Build.DEVICE);
builder.append(\nID: ); builder.append(Build.ID);
builder.append(\nMODEL: ); builder.append(Build.MODEL);
return builder.toString();
}
(Not so much use on the emulator)
The /proc file system will give you a range of (undocumented and
subject-to-change) info on OS activity.

[android-developers] Re: OnApplicationStart ?
You really shouldn't do this kind of thing in Application.onCreate(). This is called the first time your process is created... so after the first time your activity is run, there is really no defined time it will be called again. It may be called a lot (if there is lots going on in the device, every time the user goes another app your app gets killed, so upon returning to your app in whatever its last state was will have it called), it could be called almost never (if your process can be left in the background for a long time). You should use Activity to drive all of your UI. When exactly are you wanting to show the message?

[android-developers] Re: startService() fails
Whatever is going on has nothing to do with AIDL, since apparently you
aren't even connecting to the service. There are two service examples
in API demos that you can look at for help.
You should always look in the log when getting errors to see if there
are more details printed about what happened.
Btw, the package name dom.da is probably not correct for you to
use. You need to use a package name for some domain you have control
over.

Hello,
I want to share an example Service in Android. The AIDL-file looks
like this:

I created the RNS Interface and implemented it in RemoteService.java:
package dom.da;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.os.RemoteException;
public class RemoteService extends Service {
// implement the interface
private static final RNS.Stub mBinder = new RNS.Stub(){
@Override
public int[] getRandomNumbers(int amount) throws
RemoteException {
if (amount 0)
return null;
int[] rc = new int[amount];
for (;amount 0; amount--)
rc[amount] = 0;
return rc;
}
};
// we only service one innterface, so return it
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return mBinder;
}
}
Now I try to start the service in RNS_Service.java:
package dom.da;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ComponentName;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class RNS_Service extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setClassName(dom.da, RemoteService);
ComponentName compName = startService(i);
if (compName == null)
{
Log.e(RNS_Service, startService() failed!);
}
}
}
My AndroidManifest is as follows:
manifest
xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=dom.da
android:versionCode=1
android:versionName=1.0.0
application
android:icon=@drawable/icon
android:label=@string/app_name
activity
android:name=.RNS_Service
android:label=@string/app_name
intent-filter
action
android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN/
category
android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER/
/intent-filter
/activity
service android:name=RemoteService android:exported=true
android:enabled=true/
/application
/manifest
This looks like pretty basic stuff, but startService allways returns
null. Is the way I set the component
of the service correct as in i.setClassName(dom.da,
RemoteService)? Any other errors?
All AIDL examples I find on the net are either too complicated or
written for an older version
of the SDK.

Martin

[android-developers] Re: Lunar Lander game loop (was: Re: [android-developers] Re: How fast is the T-Mobile G1?)
Why redraw if nothing has changed? Also - how do you know if nothing
has changed if you don't check for it? :)
These are the reasons the main loop is the way it is.
My main loop currently looks like this:
private void update() {
if (!isPaused) {
long now = System.currentTimeMillis();
if (now - lastTick tickDelay) {
lastTick = now;
if (gameState == STATE_RUNNING) {
// key input was captured
already
updateAI();
updatePhysics();
}
updatePaths();
updateAnimation();
updateState();
updateSound();
}
}
}

Let me try to explain again - I don't want the # of updates to be ==
the # of redraws, and I'm fine with a variable # of game updates/sec,
provided that this number is greater than the fastest movement of a
sprite (e.g. 100 updates/sec for a sprite which moves at 100 px/sec).
updatePhysics will surely take the elapsed time between the last game
tick and this one, *but* then, after updatePhysics exits, if there's
no object to be redrawn (e.g. no sprite moved), I don't want to draw,
and then again I don't want to enter the next game loop either because
I don't need more than N game updates/sec.
It's OK though, I have an idea of the game loop.

Actually the correct way is not to lock in the number of updates to
physics at a constant rate but instead to have the physics themselves
be defined as a rate. For example, if you want to have a player
moving at a rate of 1 virtual foot per second (let's say that's 5
pixels on screen for a 2d game), you would have the physics update
take into account the last position at the last update time and then
figure out where they should be given the current update time. That
way if there are more or less calls to updatePhysics, the player will
continue moving at a predictable, constant rate based on time, not
tics. More tics at this point will only smooth out the movement and
this is the preferred way to handle different processor speeds.
I used tic-rate on my game which tries to lock the game in at 20 tics
per second but if for my next one I will be using time-based movement
rates like I discussed.
Also - Action games are going to suck 100% of the CPU. There really
isn't enough CPU to do simple physics and redraws and cap out at the
refresh rate. Unless you want a choppy game, you're going to want to
get as many updates in as possible.

Thanks again, yes, something like that - I realize the question was
more for a game development forum, not here, sorry.
Basically I'd like the game loop to call updatePhysics, say, exactly
30 times/sec but render only when there's anything to render, sleep to
preserve battery otherwise.

If you want to throttle your updates to something less than the screen

looking for?

Thanks to you and Romain!
So my follow up question is what is the maximum number of vertical
syncs per second of a G1 phone?
In other words, if the drawing code is really fast (e.g. if I don't
invalidate the entire screen but just a tiny rectangle), what am I
supposed to do in order to make an animation run at no more than N
frames per second? The reason behind this is this: I don't wanna draw
a frame that has already been drawn, so I'll keep a list of active
or dirty objects (dirtyness determined in updatePhysics or
whatever), but in this case, I'll just spin the CPU waiting for the
next game update which will invalidate some objects. Hence the initial
questioning of the game's loop - what if the game's scene has to be
drawn in less than the max FPS for the device?
I hope you'll understand what I mean - it's 3am here and I'm not a

[android-developers] Re: OnApplicationStart ?
I am in fact using a locationListener, i was overriding the onProviderDisabled method rather than onStatusChange because onStatusChange is not called when my app starts up. On the other hand, onProviderDisabled was being called too frequently (it's called every time the view is brought to foreground, such as when the user click 'back' to return to previous screen) Right now I am using onCreate() to create a boolean variable which make the notification appear only when onCreate() sets the boolean flag. That is fine mostly, my only problem with it is that onCreate() is called when the orientation changes, which is kind of annoying.

Justin, Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate that.

[android-developers] OpenGL light strange behaviour
Hi
I am playing with OpenGL and especially light in OpenGL. I have tried
to set light in the GLSurfaceView application in ApiDemos (Under

get some light effect, but it does not look like the light is
constantly comming from one direction. I looks like the light source
is also flying around. Why is that?

[android-developers] How firmware update thro OTA works?
Has anyone figured out how the firmware update thro OTA works? 1) A pending intent is triggered in android_root/packages/apps/ Updater/ src/com/android/updater/PesterActivity.java where there is an overdue OTA update pending. 2) android_root/recovery/recovery.c (resides as /system/bin/recovery) handles send_intent as argument and updates the boot command field (-- send_intent=send_intent) and reboots the phone. On reboot, the bootloader will read the bootloader_message from flash and check the command field and updates firmware. So, the question is where is 1+2 happening? I dont see the connection anywhere. How/Where does the framework trigger the recovery program to do this. Has anyone figured this out?

[android-developers] Spinner setSelection(int) problem

surferdude wrote: I want to take the source code from source.android.com, build it and flash it on to my device, so I can have superuser privileges instead of being restricted by Google/T- Mobile. Whether the G1 accepts replacement firmware, and the process for doing them, is a hardware question. HTC has a decent track record in this regard, though I haven't seen a definitive statement one way or another on the G1. Telling your developers that root access is disabled and still calling the platform open is unacceptable. By your definition, Linux is not an open platform. It is eminently possible to take Linux and install it on a device that does not grant root access and is not designed to have its firmware replaced by end users. Take, for example, the TiVo. Getting root access on a TiVo, where possible, is a royal pain, and replacing the TiVo software appears tor require physically dismantling the unit, AFAIK. Yet, TiVo runs Linux. Linux is open -- the TiVo is not. Similarly, Android is open -- the G1 may not be. The Android distro that is installed by HTC on the G1 has root access locked down. It is eminently likely that mainstream Android distros on other devices distributed by major carriers will have root access locked down. This should not preclude other device makers from offering Android devices with root access, via their own patch to the Android source to lift that restriction. So, rolling all the way back to your statement of what you want, the questions you'll need answers for are: 1. Which pieces of Android hardware will allow flashing of replacement firmware, and is the G1 one of them? 2. Where in the Android source is the no-root lockdown implemented and, if it's not configurable today as a build option, will the core Android team accept a patch that *does* make it a build-time configuration option, so those interested in root access can easily make firmware that offers it? #1 will determine how you can do it at all on hardware; #2 will determine if this is perpetually a non-mainstream patch or if your wishes and OHA's wishes can be met simultaneously. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.3 Published! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Android Emulator
Hi David, thanks a lot for your answer but the solution was differen, in fact I am thinking to put an issue about this, here is the solution to my problem. Because I am running Android on Linux Ubuntu, for us to be able to redirect traffic from one port to another you cannot use the redir within the emulator console on Linux as we might do on Windows, for some reason Google has released to different commands to the problem. For example if you want to redirect a traffic from port to port in Windows you have to use adb shell redir tcp:4848:4854 or udp:4848:4854 instead in Linux is as follow: adb forward tcp:4545 tcp:5554 this is something I don't really understand because commands that are part of a specific tool or application should not vary from OS to OS as they are part of a tool and that's why they should not be related to the Operating System. please spread this issue across you know Thanks 2008/10/29 David Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] you must use the 'redir' command from the emulator console (which is specific to the emulator program), i.e. with telnet localhost 5554 then redir etc... adb shell command is used to run a command within the emulated system, and this is something very different On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 12:28 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Pals, I have a problem with the Android Emulator.

[android-developers] contacts.extensions
Hi guys, I'm trying to extend the contacts by adding additional fields to contacts.people using contacts.extensions. My only problem is that have no idea how to query the contacts.people using a join with contacts.extensions. I'm not trying to modify/extend the contacts provider. One very very ugly solution would be to query on contacts.extensions and using the person ids to query the contacts.people (manual join) ... The idea is to create an ListActivity which displays only the extended contacts. I would like to be able to create a content provider that uses directly the contacts.db (from the content provider) where i could use my join queries... but from what I know this is not possible. Do the content providers support joins? Or is there another way to create this kind of joins? One more thing... How can I use Contacts.People.Extensions?

Yes, there had been one up, while the market was 'private'. It could be seen in some screenshots. But now I cannot find it. On Oct 29, 3:00 pm, blues [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't have the G1 yet.

[android-developers] Simple game menu implementation help
I'm writing a simple game so I can learn more about android development. I need a little help designing the menu system. When you start the application you will see a simple menu: Start New Game Resume Game (Dynamically shown after a game has been started) Scoreboard Instructions About When you click on Start New Game it starts a new Play activity (This works fine) The Resume Game option should only be visible when a game has already been started and the user returns to the main menu. How do I determine whether the Play activity has been started or not in order to display this menu item? Also, how do I handle the back button press when in the Play activity so that the game state is paused and not lost when returning to the main menu? Example: The game application is started and the user sees the following screen New Game Scoreboard Instructions About The user then taps New Game and starts to play. In the middle of the game the user hits the back button (or receives a phone call, starts another app, etc.) and sees the following screen when returning to the game app: New Game Resume Game Scoreboard Instructions About The user either taps New Game and starts a new game or taps Resume Game and continues where he left off. How should I approach this using multiple Activities? Thx, Aaron --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: jchat4android 1.2 released!
Hi. I'm having problems with the visibility in jChat by using the android emulator. I can connect 2 instances of android through the jChat application to the JADE platform, but I can not be able to see that those instances are online in the jChat. They always appear as offline. I don't know if there is a problem with the JADE-Leap or maybe I have to set some variable in the emulator in order to enable the communications of the emulator devices. Additional Information I tried to change the telephone number of the devices, and add them in the contact list of each device, but they just appear as offline in the jChat screen of the emulator, even if I can see that both of them are in the JADE platform. On 21 oct, 09:59, Semeria Stefano [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear Android developers, We are proud to announce the release of jChat4Android 1.2 working with ANDROID SDK 1.0 jChat4Android is a chat application for the Android platform based on Jade agent framework. It shows how Jade can effectively be used in a peer-to-peer context on mobile devices. In our opinion JADE, thanks to the expressiveness of its communication model based on FIPA specifications (http://www.fipa.org), brings strong added value to ANDROID SDK platform in the development of innovative applications based on social models and peer-to-peer paradigm. jChat relies on Jade4AndroidAddOn 1.1, a JADE add-on that enables Jade capabilities on the Android platform and provides a good example of how Android developers can use JADE agents in their own applications. For any information regarding Jade and Jade4Android, please refer to Jade project official site at *http://jade.tilab.com*. These are the main features of jChat: · *Contacts management* (contacts are read from the phone contacts database) · *Persistence* (you can see the status of all contacts connected to your own JADE platform) · *Real time localization* (you can see the position of the contacts on the map and the distance from your current position. Localization uses the Android mocked GPS provider for tracking contacts position. You are able to import new custom tracks if you wish.) · *Multiple chat sessions handling* ( you can open multiple chat sessions with different contacts and switch between them) · *Support for chat with many contacts in a single session* · *Mocked SMS sending and phone call to contacts* jChat4Android 1.2 is released as open source software according to the LGPL 2.1. Main Features of the new released: 1. Support for Android 1.0 SDK 2. New ddms-like tool for sending mocked location updates to different emulators at the same time loading from kml.

[android-developers] Re: OnApplicationStart ?
Right now I am using onCreate() to create a boolean variable which make the notification appear only when onCreate() sets the boolean flag. That is fine mostly, my only problem with it is that onCreate() is called when the orientation changes, which is kind of annoying. You *can* disable this in AndroidManifest, with the android:configChanges attribute of your application. However... you have to be aware of what this means. I'm with the other guys, you probably want to do that some other way. Perhaps another thread or some kind of static class? - Michael --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: The UK Release and Internationalization
Hi Everyone, I just wanted to give this a bump. Has anyone successfully internationalized their application? For example, I want to determine what region the user is in (UK or US) so I can provide English or Metric units on the backend for calculations. Is this as simple as using Java's locale, or does Android provide another type of support on top that I should be implementing? The API says this is coming soon: http://code.google.com/android/devel/resources-i18n.html#i18n I realize I can provide different languages using the values-en, values-xx, etc. But what about determining that region in the java code? Thanks for your help, Kevin On Oct 29, 7:07 am, cyntacks [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Last I read here on the board Android did not yet fully support internationalization (even though we have the directories for different languages, etc). 1) Is this true? 2) Will the normal Java syntax involving Locales be a valid work around? I ask because our application needs to know whether to use metric units or not. Just wondering what the best way to determine this may be on Android for the UK release today.
