[android-developers] Re: static getString()??

2009-05-05 Thread Sheado

Thanks for the quick reply Yogini..

unfortunately that doesn't work.. I'm trying to access the string
resource  from a static method:

public static void blah()
{
getResources().getString() // doesn't work
}

I also tried Resources.getSystem().getString() with no luck.. but I
guess I should've expected that.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Cannot use dependent projects in 1.5

2009-05-05 Thread Rainer

Hi

I have 2 projects in the following layout

MainActivityProject - BaseProject

(i.e. MainActivityProject depends on the other project).  Both are
android projects created with the eclipse New Android project
functionality) however, the BaseProject does not have an activity
defined. However, in BaseProject I define an activity base class where
MainActivityProject's Activity derives from.
This used to work fine up until 1.1 but now with the 1.5 SDK I get
ClassNotFoundExceptions when launching the app.

Any suggestion on how to fix this? I obviously dont want to copy all
the sources to a single project as I intend to reuse my Activity base
class for other things (it contains some boiler plate stuff that I
dont want to  have in each and every activity.

cheers
- Rainer

[android-developers] Change custom title view of window at run time

2009-05-05 Thread idev

Hi

I am using a custom title view in my application for each activity. In
one of the activities, based on button clicks I need to change the
custom title view. Now this works fine every time when I make a call
to setFeatureInt.

But if I try to update any items in the custom title (say change the
text of a button or a text view on the title), the update does not
take place.

Debugging through the code shows that the text view and button
instances are not null and I can also see the custom title bar. But
the text on the text view or the button is not updated. Has anyone
else faced this problem?
How do I resolve it?

Thanks.

   } else {
   if (!tmpdir.isDirectory()) {
   throw new RuntimeException(here : the
tmp dir conflicts);
   }
   }

with name = name of my apk file.

My file is correctly  created on my temporary directory on /sdcard,
but when i try to read it, i've not the permissions.

My permissions are '- - - - r w - r w -'

  #adb shell
  # chmod 777

There is no error but my permissions are always the same  '- - - - r w

Your program does what you tell it to do: it draws a line every time
onDraw is called. If you want it to draw the previous lines also, you

[android-developers] Re: Keeping an application transparently on top of all other applications

2009-05-05 Thread Christine

The application model gives all resources to the currently active app.
You can't prevent your app from being stopped, unless you go around
the app model, which I think means going around the SDK. I don't think
you can have an app that stays on top at all times. If you find a way
to do it, plz let me know :-)

[android-developers] access to the audio channel

2009-05-05 Thread PI9

Hello,
I'm working on an Android Project.
 I'm trying to create an application using DTMF (Dual Tone Multi
Frequency) to provide special service to user. In fact, I would like
that once you call someone, this person could put you through (using
DTMF).
The process is the following:
1- You call your contact
2- You ask him to put you through
3- He enter a DTMF sequence (containing the number to be dialed by
your own phone,..)
4- Your phone receive the DTMF tones, end this call and dial the new
number (decoded)

Therefore, I would like to know if it's possible to access the audio
channel in DevPhone or G1.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Re: Change custom title view of window at run time

2009-05-05 Thread iDeveloper
Here's the code

Initially , when the activity is created, I set the title like this

getWindow
().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE,R.layout.text_title);
TextView databar = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.search_title_text);
databar.setText(titleText);


On a button click, I change the title to have an EditText and a button

MyClass.this.getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE,  
R.layout.search_title);


On this button's click, I again change the title to the original one

MyClass.this.getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE,  
R.layout.text_title);
TextView databar = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.search_title_text);
databar.setText(titleText);

The databar setText statement does not work now. I see the text_title  
set as the title bar of the activity. But there is no text in the  
textview. Debugging the code shows that databar does have a value and  
is not null. titleText is also not null. But the value is not reflected.

[android-developers] Background streaming video playback.

2009-05-05 Thread AndroidJimmy

Hi,
I try to write a streaming player AP with videoView to play the
streamming video.
If there is an incoming phone call during the streaming video is
playing, I'll call mediaplayer.pause() in onPause() to pause the
video.
Streaming AP will be put to background, and the surface of the
videoView will be destroyed. When the phone call is end and then
returns to the streaming player AP, the mediaplayer will play with
only audio, the screen will be full dark. I tried to set the surface
holder got from surfaceCreated() to mediaplayer through setDisplay(),
but it still not work.

Is there any way to prevent reconnecting to the streaming server when
the streaming player AP is interrupted by incoming phone call?

Thanks.

[android-developers] How to create and save data(DATE, TIME) to DB???

2009-05-05 Thread daehoon

Hi everyone.
I found lots of samples on internet about DB, but most of all contain
two String variables.
like this :

public static final String KEY_TITLE=title;
public static final String KEY_BODY=body;

create table notes (_id integer primary key autoincrement, 
+ title text not null, body text not null);;

I need to add some other variables to DB, like DATE,TIME.
I added datetime to DB like titlebody, it was no problem.
But they are String, not int. I need int type to use,
how to create table include date and time? can anyone help?

[android-developers] Re: android 1.5: How do we use the AudioTrack class?

2009-05-05 Thread blindfold



On May 1, 6:43 pm, Jean-Michel jmtr...@gmail.com wrote:
 Blindfold,
Yes, with the marker set at 1000 I would now *sometimes* get the
onMarkerReached() callback, but extremely rarely (maybe once in a
hundred one-second 8-bit mono PCM sample playbacks on my ADP, which is
why I had not even noticed it at first). It may depend on parameter
settings, sample length, CPU load, whatever, but for my use it is
totally unreliable and useless. At least it proves that my coding was
not totally wrong, or else the callback would *never* have been
invoked. :-)

I think we need some feedback from the Android Team about how
onMarkerReached() is supposed to behave or under what conditions it
works. Some undocumented statement order that one has to adhere to?
Timing assumptions? By contrast, MediaPlayer's OnCompletionListener()
works just fine for me.

Thanks

 I can get onMarkerReached() called for a STATICAudioTrackinstance. A
 few things you might want to try:
 - the marker position must be set in frames, not bytes. So make sure
 you're not giving a marker position that's not beyond your content.
 For instance if your content is stereo/8bit, you must divide the size
 by two, by four for stereo/16bit, to go from data size to frame count.
 - try setting a really low value for your marker position, like 10, to
 see if it gets called.
 - if all that still doesn't work, I'd start checking in which thread
 the callback is supposed to be called. By default it's in the same
 thread as the one in which you created yourAudioTrackinstance. If
 you want it to be called from a different thread, use
 setPlaybackPositionUpdateListener(listener, handler) where you pass
 the handler of the thread you want to use.
 Hope this helps.

The problem I have here is that after the setting is updated in the
configuration dialogue I need to dynamically update the current
display of all widgets, however since they are running as a pending
Intent from the Widget manager I cant see how I can get a notified
when the user has closed the settings dialogue, since as you say the
startActivity() call does not block my current pendingIntents
execution and there is no way for it to detect when the back button is
pressed.

Is it simply not possible to achieve in an activity launched via a
pending intent or am I just going about this the wrong way?

Thanks for all your help!

 I would be surprised if the settings activities are built to return a

 what would the result be?

  are there any flags that I could set to either make

 That depends on what you mean by block.

 Your activity already blocks until the launched activity is closed. All
 activities work that way when starting up other activities.

 However, in this case, block does not mean startActivity() blocks.
 Instead, after you have called startActivity() and returned from
 whatever callback you are in, your activity will be stopped and the
 settings activity will be opened.

[android-developers] How to send the On Call Screen Back

2009-05-05 Thread raj.10788

Hi All,

I am trying to create a application, which is capable of making phone
calls to the given number at the scheduled time (someting like
reminder). But at the same time once it starts to make the call, my
application should take a picture from Camera. So after starting the
call activity, after few seconds I want the on call screen activity
should go to back ground and my own camera app(A activity with
surface) should come to the foreground to take a picture.

I tried the above one in the following way,

1. create a Action calll intent and started the call activity from my
Applications Main Activity.
2. After few seconds I started my own camera activity from my App Mail
Activity.

But it's not working. Once I start the call, the on call screen only
showing in the foreground, that camera Activity is not at all coming
to forground. So when I give back button the camera Activity is coming
to foreground.


I don know the reason. Can anyone tell me what's wrong in this. I
think am missing some thing inthis. any pointers to this one is highly
appriciated.


thanks
raj

Hi,

 If you want see the logs from your C++ application, follow these steps.

 1. use fprintf(stderr,..._); to print the logs in your source code.
 2. launch ./emulator -shell
 3. In another prompt,
 Type these commands

$ adb shell stop
$ adb shell setprop log.redirect-stdio true
$ adb shell start

 4. Then type
$ adb logcat

 It will display all the logs from the emulator.

  1. use fprintf(stderr,..._); to print the logs in your source code.
  2. launch ./emulator -shell
  3. In another prompt,
  Type these commands

 $ adb shell stop
 $ adb shell setprop log.redirect-stdio true
 $ adb shell start

  4. Then type
 $ adb logcat

  It will display all the logs from the emulator.

[android-developers] Playing a .mp3 file using View Intent

2009-05-05 Thread Asif k

Hi all,

   I want to play a mp3 file which is stored in the /sdcard/ using
ACTION_VIEW intent and I used following code to accomplish that, but I
got ActivityNotFound Exception..

Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);

Uri data = Uri.parse(file:///sdcard/abc_xyz.mp3);
intent.setDataAndType(data,/audio/mp3);

try {
  startActivity(intent);
   } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
  e.printStackTrace();


   }

But I got the following exception,

[android-developers] Re: onDraw() help needed....!

2009-05-05 Thread MrChaz

You're overwriting the previous line each time you touch so the
application can only draw one line.
As far as I know each onDraw() call clears the screen and, therefore,
your previous strokes.

Take a look at the Path class, this provides an easy way of chaining
together multiple points into one long line.

[android-developers] Re: Google voice recognition on Emulator

2009-05-05 Thread qvark

Hi Dave, so... this is what I have understood about speech recognition
in Android 1.5:

- The only thing included (and public) in the 1.5 platform is the
RecognizerIntent class, which is just a bunch of constants to
standardize the use of speech recognition applications.

- The actual speech recognition is performed by Google Voice Search
application which is not part of the platform (nor open source) and it
is not included in the emulator images (even the one with the Google
APIs).

- Anyone is free to implement his own recognition applications but not
using the classes present in android.speech.srec because that package
is private.

If I'm right, then the Speech recognition framework included in 1.5
is not what I was expecting... any plans to extend it in the future?

Thanks again for your support,

Jose Luis.

On May 5, 2:14 am, Dave Sparks davidspa...@android.com wrote:
 Google Voice Search is a Google application, not part of the Android

 However, because it uses the intent system, it is possible for someone
 else to provide competing solution.

[android-developers] Re: Handling key events in a paused Activity

2009-05-05 Thread ellipsoidmob...@googlemail.com

If what you want is to have a notification that the user can swipe
down and click to go back to your application, then you don't really
need to be handling key events whilst your activity is paused. What
you could do is create a service which displays the notification, and
then use an intent to launch your activity when the notification is
clicked.

BUT - I'm not sure that this is good usability design. If the user has
navigated away from your activity and if you don't need to do any
continual background processing, then you probably shouldn't show
anything in the notification panel. The user can always get back to
your app from the homescreen or via a long press on the home button.

[android-developers] Re: Bug using BroadcastReceivers in the App Widget Framework ?

2009-05-05 Thread Alea

I have discovered a bug in ExampleAppWidgetProvider.onEnabled() and in
the configuration of the ExampleBroadcastReceiver.

The correct configuration of the BroadcastReceiver (BR) which leads to
the Callback as desired:

receiver android:name=.appwidget.ExampleBroadcastReceiver
android:enabled=true
intent-filter
action
android:name=android.intent.action.TIMEZONE_CHANGED /
action android:name=android.intent.action.TIME /
/intent-filter
/receiver

Logcat output:

I/ActivityManager(  575): Displayed activity
com.android.settings/.ZoneList: 405 ms
D/AlarmManagerService(  575): Kernel timezone updated to 480 minutes
west of GMT
D/ExmampleBroadcastReceiver(  757): intent=Intent
{ action=android.intent.action.TIMEZONE_CHANGED comp=
{com.example.android.apis/
com.example.android.apis.appwidget.ExampleBroadcastReceiver}

The way in which the BR is enabled in
ExampleAppWidgetProvider.onEnabled() via the PackageManager doesn't
seem to work I suspect.

[android-developers] Re: What units does Location.getAltitude() return in?

2009-05-05 Thread ellipsoidmob...@googlemail.com

It's in meters, but your device is fine - the issue is that that the
GPS system has to make an approximation about the shape of the Earth
and the average sea level, but it is only an approximation so you will
find differences between the GPS average sea level and the local
average sea level. See:

http://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0703/geoid1of3.html

if you are interested in the details.

Local grid systems (like British OS grid) often use their own datums
so that the height corresponds more accurately to the local sea level.
A GPS application that provides altitude in such a local grid system
should do the conversion for you.

 By the way there is a bug in the Smack library, the keep alive

 I am following the instructions on code signing on the Android
 Developer site, and it mentions that if you specify that you want to

 compile in Release mode, that you can use the Export Wizard to
 generate a private key and handle the distribution signing.

 Can someone point me to the setting in Eclipse for Release vs. Debug
 compiling.  When I use the Export Wizard, I am only given the option
 to export unsigned.  I am pretty sure I am stuck in Debug mode, since
 my app has no problem running in the emulator or my tethered G1.

There isn't really a separate mode as such for release. When the
docs refer to release mode they are just talking about signing your
apk with your own private key (which is required for uploading to the
Market). The latest SDK has stuff in the export wizard to help with
that, but in the older releases you can only export unsigned and then
sign with the command-line tools.

If you patch it, using this patch I submitted:

 Hi

 I have 2 projects in the following layout

 MainActivityProject - BaseProject

 (i.e. MainActivityProject depends on the other project).  Both are
 android projects created with the eclipse New Android project
 functionality) however, the BaseProject does not have an activity
 defined. However, in BaseProject I define an activity base class where
 MainActivityProject's Activity derives from.
 This used to work fine up until 1.1 but now with the 1.5 SDK I get
 ClassNotFoundExceptions when launching the app.

 Any suggestion on how to fix this? I obviously dont want to copy all
 the sources to a single project as I intend to reuse my Activity base
 class for other things (it contains some boiler plate stuff that I
 dont want to  have in each and every activity.

 cheers

[android-developers] Possible to change BroadcastReceiver priority from within Activity

2009-05-05 Thread Filipe Abrantes

Hi all,

I have developed a music player and the application defines a bradcast 
receiver that handles MediaButton intents:

...
application...

receiver android:name=MediaButtonIntentReceiver
   intent-filter
   android:priority=32000
   action 
android:name=android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON/
   /intent-filter
   /receiver

/application


which works well.

My question is if it was possible to change the priority of this 
receiver from within the settings activity of my application. That way 
people could choose if they wanted my player as default handler of the 
headset buttons or not.

Cheers,
Filipe

Well, no. If the work you're doing takes that long, you should do it in
another thread.
Or, if you absolutely must to do it in your main thread (you never did say
why you think you need to do that), you should break it up in to smaller
chunks and post messages to your main thread to tell it to process each of
those chunks.

I'm having a similar issue, except that I have an activity on top of
another with AndroidManifest.xml declaring

android:theme=@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar

When I set the background color to #8800 in Android 1.1 it works
nicely giving a darker transparancy... and in Android 1.5 once in a
while it decides not to work making the background all back and no
longer transperant.

Any ideas why this happens?

 I tried the above one in the following way,

 1. create a Action calll intent and started the call activity from my

 2. After few seconds I started my own camera activity from my App Mail

 But it's not working. Once I start the call, the on call screen only

[android-developers] Re: Get result from settings activity intent

2009-05-05 Thread Dianne Hackborn
Correct there is no way to get a result back from a PendingIntent that
someone else launched.  But you could just write you pending intent to
launch your own activity which launches the settings panel.  (Though this
will still leave back-doors where the user could explicitly go to settings
and change something without you being aware.)

 startActivity() call does not block my current pendingIntents
 execution and there is no way for it to detect when the back button is
 pressed.

 Is it simply not possible to achieve in an activity launched via a
 pending intent or am I just going about this the wrong way?

 Thanks for all your help!

  I would be surprised if the settings activities are built to return a

  That depends on what you mean by block.
 
  Your activity already blocks until the launched activity is closed. All
  activities work that way when starting up other activities.
 
  However, in this case, block does not mean startActivity() blocks.
  Instead, after you have called startActivity() and returned from
  whatever callback you are in, your activity will be stopped and the
  settings activity will be opened.

[android-developers] Re: Handling key events in a paused Activity

2009-05-05 Thread Streets Of Boston

I really hope that this is *not* possible.
A background application that steals key-strokes is not a good idea.

I won't doubt that your application only has good itentions, but the
idea that i could be downloading a key-stroke sniffer is not very
appealing. I'd rather not have my passwords stolen.

Taisa,
Can you tell us *what* the functionality/task is that you try to
accomplish (not *how*)?
Maybe you can accomplish the same without the need to receive key-
stroke events.

[android-developers] Re: Handling key events in a paused Activity

2009-05-05 Thread Taísa Cristina
In fact I do need to handle key strokes. It would be easier if I could
handle home key, so that I could prevent the user from going to home screen.
I think it's not a good approach to finish my Activity when it's paused as
well. And it would be very boring for the user to go back to the Activity
whenever he wanted to press a key and make stuff...

Is there a way to register for receiving key strokes if my application is
compiled with the emulator/device image? (should I ask it on
android-platform?)
