Hi, been looking at the android code and wanted to know if it was
possible to use the secret code for SDK applications or was it only
reserved for system apps?

System settings has this in the manifest

receiver android:name=TestingSettingsBroadcastReceiver
intent-filter
 action
android:name=android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE /
 data android:scheme=android_secret_code
android:host=4636 /
/intent-filter
/receiver

So when you dial *#*#4636#*#* it launches the testing settings
activity. It would be very handy if we could use this.

[android-developers] MapView Overlay problem

2010-01-05 Thread Stefan

hello,

i have an activity with a MapView ad overlays. If i start a new
activity and go back to my Activity with the map, i only see the map
without my overlays. How can i save my overlays?? The
mapView.onSaveInstanceState() does not save the overlays, does it? Or
have i implement something wrong and the overlays should be visible
after i come back to my MapActivity?

Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Re: File creation problem in Android source build

You can't write an app that can create a file in the Data directory,
unless your device is rooted. You might be better off posting in the
platform group if your trying to modify the framework, as this group
is for Android developers, not contributes.

[android-developers] Led notification on Motorola Milestone

2010-01-05 Thread Pablo Szyrko

Hi all,
I'm dealing with an issue related with notifications.
My application shows led notification for some events, but it isn't
working in the Motorola Milestone (i'm not sure if it doesn't work in
the Motorola DROID also). Led notifications are shown in HTC Hero,
Magic and G1

This is my code:

Notification notif = new Notification();
notif.flags |= Notification.FLAG_SHOW_LIGHTS;
notif.ledOnMS = 200;
notif.ledOffMS = 200;
notificationManager.notify(LED_NOTIFICATION, notif);

Do you know if this code is OK? i don't know if i'm missing something.
Thanks, Pablo

 Hi,

 Is there any way I can find out the system calls invoked by Android
 for specific tasks?

 For example, for writing/deleting contacts or writing/deleting SMS
 what are the Linux system calls invoked by Android for these tasks?

 I can't find any links explaining on this.

You would have to rummage through the source code at

[android-developers] Re: Menu Item Name

2010-01-05 Thread tobias429

Hi,

menu.add() returns the menu item that was created. You can create a
global variable, assign the returned menu to this global variable, and
then access this any time you like.

E.g.:

In your global variable definitions, add:
MenuItem startMenu;

in onCreateOptionsMenu() you add:

startMenu=menu.add(0, 1, 0, Start);

In you onOptionsItemSelected, you then just have to state:

startMenu.setTitle(Pause);

Cheers,

Tobias

[android-developers] Pass key events through transparent activity

My application has transparent activity which is shown over the
Incoming Call activity when the call is received. In HTC Hero the
Incoming Call screen has two buttons Accept and Decline but when
my transparent activity is displayed user can see those buttons bu
can't press them as all key events are sent ti transparent activity
for processing.

Probably there is some possibility to pass key events to the
underlying activity ? Or probably it is possible to add some view to
the screen without creating new activity ?

Any help on this issue will be very much appreciated !

I do not believe so, other than by eliminating your activity.

No, except perhaps by firmware modifications.

[android-developers] Re: Null pointer exception

2010-01-05 Thread JasonMP

Ok, I tried gino's idea with initializing my arrays differently.  I
also changed there names so that they did not share a name with any
other arrays in my app:  Did not work.

I also tried calling to static variables instead of passing variables
between classes with intents:  This also did not work.

I can't determine which line of code causes the error.  The logcat
does not give me a pointer to anything in my app at all.  I tried to
narrow it down with breakpoints and logging and what I found is that
it runs through all of my code without a hitch, and then once its done
it throws the exception.

And again the exception only happens when I call the intent from a
contextMenu.

   Is that a class from another of your files?  I guess I would wonder if the

   thus
   causing some kind of loop.  I would grep for any reference to your Sheet

   In general, the below is kind of a side topic, to maybe help you with
   generic debugging.

   All the Best, Steve.

   *Ok... the only thing I can think to really help you is to start taking
   advantage of logging.  In your import list, I see you don't include the
   logger code, so maybe you can give this a shot.

   1) in the import list

   import android.util.Log;

   2) and throughout your code

   Log.d( TAG, DebugText );

   where TAG is a string that is unique to you, and DebugText is something
   useful to identify the part of the program you're interested in.

Hello!

It seems you're leaking the service connection in some way.
Try doing some logging after you bind and before you unbind to the

Activity.onDestroy). I guess, in your case, when you restart the
activity 1, without previous unbind, the service connection is leaked.
Do you call unbind in onDestroy method in your activities?

Also try isolating the code, maybe you'll find the solution this way.
Maybe, this also could be helpful in your case:

Because the UI design doesn't want activity 2 to stack on top of 3, or
3 on top of 2 I use a FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP flag when starting

goes away but

To make it even a bit weirder, if I run through the same scenario

[android-developers] Menu always Displayable

2010-01-05 Thread Nithin

Hi,

I want options menu should always display, when  I open my
application, for that I put openOptionsMenu(), in onCreate() of the
launcher activity.  But its showing exception.

--android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window
-- token n
ull is not valid; is your activity running?

Then I put openOptionsMenu() in onResume(), still its throwing
exception.

Any idea how to make menu displayable always.

Re: [android-developers] Maps API in paid App

I think you're reading the wrong TOS.

When you sign up for a developer API key for Android
(http://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/maps-api-signup.html)
there is a a different TOS, which states:

5.4. Subject to these Terms, you may develop, display and/or distribute your

[android-developers] Re: ServiceConnectionLeaked warning

Yep, based on your description it sounds like Activity 1 is already
running and bound to the Service when you call it from Activity 2.
There's your leak.  See if you can put a test in Activity 1 before you
bind to the service.  If it is already running the service and bound,
don't do it again.  You might set a boolean flag in the Activity or
Service when you start and bind to it then check for that before you
call it and start again.
That's my educated guess.
Good luck.

Set the adapter once, when you create the list.  Requery the list's

[android-developers] Keeping Map API keys in sync across a dev team

2010-01-05 Thread Carl Whalley

When an app which uses the Map API is released it must be signed with
the public cert. For individual use the key comes from the local debug
keystore, created each time the Android SDK is installed. In other
words, its different for each developer. When I include a view using
it, then commit, my key goes in the xml, but the next developer to
take an update clobbers his key, which being different to mine results
in no maps being shown for him. Is there a smarter way to prevent this
when a team is using the Maps API please?

Re: [android-developers] Keeping Map API keys in sync across a dev team

Actually, it is possible to get the same debug key. I alternate work between
a PC and laptop and originally had two different debug keys when I first
started.

A while ago I move the SDK folder to lie withing my root project tree (so I
could commit it to revision control, share AVDs across machines, and not
have to do two updates when the SDK is updated).

When I did that my debug keys were invalidated and I had to regenerate the
debug keys for both machines. When I did so the hash from the key-store
ended up being the same on both machines, so I think is determined by the
relative path between the SDK and your project.

If it's feasible, try having your developers move their SDK folders such
that the relative path to the project is the same for them all and see if
that gives you all the same debug key.

Hope that helps.

[android-developers] Re: ServiceConnectionLeaked warning

2010-01-05 Thread Mike Collins

Well, there is exactly one place where the code binds and exactly one
place where it unbinds.  The binding is shared between the activities
activity 1 does a bind on create and unbind on destroy.

Breakpoints and logging indicate that exactly one bind is called and
no unbinds are called during the sequence that produces the leak.

I am guessing that either it's an incorrect warning or there is some
automatic machinery that I'm not aware of.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Maps API in paid App


 Doesn't the Android Maps API TOS refer to and incorporate the general Google
 Maps API TOS (with the prohibition about charging for the app)?


I don't think so ...

Section 1.2:
1.2. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with Google, the Terms will include
the following: 1) the terms and conditions set forth in this document (the
Maps APIs Terms); 2) the Legal Notices (
http://www.google.com/intl/en-us/help/legalnotices_maps.html); and 3) the
Privacy Policy (http://www.google.com/privacy.html). Before you use the Maps
APIs, you should read each of the documents comprising the Terms, and print
or save a local copy for your records.

As far as I can tell, that doesn't include the general Maps TOS. Does it say
otherwise somewhere else? (I really only skimmed it)

Also, in section 1.3 of the Android Maps TOS:
If there is any contradiction between what any Additional Terms say and what
the Maps APIs Terms say, then the Maps APIs Terms will take precedence only
as it relates to the Maps APIs, and not to any other Services.

To me that means that even if there is a conflict, the Android Maps TOS
takes precedence over the general TOS as it applies to Android Apps.

However if people are charging for Android apps with the Maps API then I
 guess the answer is that Google does not think there is a prohibition
 against charging for such an app.


Agreed. There are TONS of paid apps that use Google maps (including my own)
and they are not being pulled or banned (as far as I know and I, at least,
haven't been issued any warning regarding this use).

Also, IANAL - I love that acronym btw =)

2010-01-05 Thread Beth Mezias

hello friends...

My app sets a repeating alarm and based on user interaction, it might
need to change the time set for the broadcast with AlarmManager.  It
will repeat on the same interval.  There is not much in the way of
extras.  Is the update or cancel flag better in this case?

Thanks and regards,
Beth

[android-developers] Re: Reliable GPS location

You can use Location.getTime() this returns the UTC time of this fix,
in milliseconds since January 1, 1970. Then you could get the current
time and compare it to see if you find it accurate enough.


On Jan 4, 10:14 pm, Lance Nanek lna...@gmail.com wrote:
 You can call Location#getTime to see when the fix returned by
 LocationManager#getLastKnownLocation was taken. The
 getLastKnownLocation method doesn't start the GPS, so the fix may be
 from a long time ago, and not be a good indicator of the current
 location.

 The accuracy of the fix refers to the accuracy at the time the fix was
 taken. I don't see how it could be easily updated to refer to the
 accuracy with respect to the current location. That would require
 starting the GPS and taking another fix to find the current location,
 in which case the new fix would become the last known location and
 there would be no point.

 If you want current fixes, use the
 LocationManager#requestLocationUpdates methods.

  Hi,

  i know how to get the calculated GPS position via getLastKnownLocation
  (). As tests show, this function really always returns the last known
  location, so it doesn't matter if there is a gps fix available.

  How can i check if the returned location is reliable?
  I tried it with getAccurracy(), but this function even returns a
  accurracy although no gps fix is availavle (anymore). Is there a
  possibility to get gps dop values?

  Used SDK is 1.6,
  thx

[android-developers] Re: Android development with PHP

I am using something similar. I have a PHP script online, I give my
parameters by using $_GET, then I let my PHP do the work and write my
output to an XML code which I read again on Android.

Small sample:

//Creating URL
URL cUrl = null;
String url = http://www.link.com?paramater=hi;;
try {
cUrl = URI.create(url).toURL();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
}
//Creating XML document
DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance
().newDocumentBuilder();
//Read the XML document
Document doc = builder.parse(cUrl.openStream());
//Getting all tags which have TagName as name and get the value of the
first element.
NodeList nodes = doc.getElementsByTagName(TagName);
String value = nodes.item(0).getNodeValue();

[android-developers] Ecosnoop, no.. i want SnoopBigbrother

2010-01-05 Thread gremlin

I would like to request an app that is inspired by an app that was
brought to my attention that’s for the i-phone and i-touch. The app
goes by the name of “ecosnoop”, www.ecosnoop.com . What I propose is
an app such as “Bigbrother snoop”. The most uneasy feeling one can
give bigbrother is to identify him, unclothe him, and expose the
robotic works of its control.

From my vantage point this app would likely be a constantly evolving
creature possibly having many copycats. What I mean is that at 1st it
would be a way for people to record audio, video and photos available
for all to see threw a central location (website) and/or threw the app
itself. For example people can record the vast network of cameras
(shout cameras in England) plotted on google maps to keep the
redundancy down to a minimum. The next evolution in programming this
app would defiantly be in the organization/user categorization of the
collected data. Later there could be a audio/video blogs submitted
threw this of what they witness and/or run-ins with the cops. Those
being harassed can document that and when the opportunity presents
itself can be used to correct the problem. Finally maybe a community
for people to network and collect friends (like minded patriots) to
combine efforts to keep the man in check, safety in numbers.

Please please take this into consideration, Ill be pushing this idea
until it comes true because no is the time. Im not a programmer nor
have the resources to make this happen, im only a good idea waiting to
happen.

Thank you for your time.
Gremlin

[android-developers] Simple Launching of an app with an Intent

2010-01-05 Thread 52x15

Hello,

Thanks in advance for the help. I'm both new and trying to launch the
native music player from my application. I've searched and read all
over the mailing list (and web) for help with this. The best I've
managed is to launch the music player to show a list of songs (that
the selection can only be played once without a background service to
keep running):

/*
This opens up to view all the files, but only plays one at a time,
without playlists or continuing to next track
*/
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType(audio/*);
startActivity(intent);


/* The other option I got working is to specifically call the music
player to play one track.
   although this doesn't seem to work well with the emulator, it does
if you have another media player installed with an actual phone
 */
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
audio/*);
startActivity(intent);


What I would like to do is just start the media player with no data to
send it. Ideally just have it bring the user to the normal main
screen, just like you clicked the music icon to start the app.


Thanks!
-kieran

[android-developers] Re: Debugging the framework

2010-01-05 Thread Joe Onorato

The KeyInputQueue runs in the system process, and your test app runs
in its own process.  You need to connect two debuggers.  When I debug
this code, I usually use Log.d debugging instead, because while
possible, connecting two debuggers is kind of a pain.

[android-developers] Possible to awake the phone by touching the screen?

2010-01-05 Thread Nazgulled

Hi,

As an heads-up, I'm an amateur developer and a university student in
the area but I have not knowledge at all about Android development. I
haven't yet had the time to start looking at the SDK and
documentation. However, I have an idea for an app that I would like to
try and develop for Android phones but I need to do something that I
don't think it's quite possible.

I own an HTC Hero and the phone can only be awaken by pressing the
menu button or the power off button. Dunno if it's like this for every
Android phone. I'm looking for a way to awake the phone by touching
the screen.

My idea is to replace the KeyGuard with something else but instead of
awaking the phone by pressing one of those buttons, I would like to do
it by touching the screen.

Is this even possible or the Androd framework doesn't provide this
functionality at all?

[android-developers] Nine patch pre-scaling on Hdpi

Hello everyone,

I have some 9-patch images on my app, and they work great on the
medium density.
When I load the app on a High density emulator/device, these images
look grainy.
It happens only to 9-patch images. The others look great after the pre-
scaling.
Is there a way to make them look good after the scaling, like the
non-9-patch images?

[android-developers] setActualDefaultRingtoneUri from android.resources

2010-01-05 Thread Olivier Boite

Hi,
I try to set a resource sound as notification ringtone.

I've added the permission WRITE_SETTINGS in the androidmanifest file, then
in my main class I've hadded the following.

Uri mUri = Uri.parse(android.resource:// + mPackageName + /raw/ +
mSoundFileName);
RingtoneManager.setActualDefaultRingtoneUri(getApplicationContext(),
RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION, mUri);

mUri is allright and it seems that I can set the default ringtone because
I've made the following test :
get back the default notification ringtone and play it.
RingtoneManager.getRingtone(getApplicationContext(),
   RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION)).play();

It is my resource sound. Great.
However, when new notification arrives, no sound plays.
(In the android settings, default notification sound has no sound checked)

[android-developers] Virtual keyboard hiding content

2010-01-05 Thread GreenRob

Hi,

is there a way to somehow move the content from an activity up when
the virtual keyboard slides out? I have seen this functionality in
some apps like eg. chomp sms.

The problem is that an app can be pretty hard to control if the
keyboard hides certain parts of an activities ui.

[android-developers] Call state events for multiple participants

2010-01-05 Thread Darren Hinderer

I'm working on an application where I'm monitoring the Android call
state. I've spent a lot of time working with and researching the
available call state that comes from TelephonyManager. It does not
seem to provide enough information to understand the call state for
multiple callers.

For example, if I wanted to know the duration of both parties in this
situation:
* Answer an incoming call
* Wait 2 minutes
* Answer a second incoming call (first call is put on hold)
* Wait 4 minutes
* Hang up the phone.

The events that Telephony Manager provides for this scenario are:
* Idle to Ringing (with incoming number)
* Ringing to Off hook
* Off hook to Ringing (with incoming number)
* Ringing to Off hook
* Off hook to Idle

Now I can assume that the first call is put on hold when the second
comes in, but there is no new call state if they are later conferenced
together.

Or maybe the second call is answered briefly and then put on hold in
the first calls place. There is no way to know how long either
conversation was.

There is another issue here in that I only ever receive one hang up
event (off hook to idle). So if instead of putting the first caller on
hold, I hung up on them - the call state would look exactly the same.

Hopefully it's becoming obvious that I'm lacking the call state needed
to fully monitor the phone activity.

Is there other call state available or any way to find out when key
presses happen for on hold, conference actions, or hang up?

[android-developers] Kernel git tree docs

2010-01-05 Thread mcgrof


There are 5 kernel git trees over at:

kernel/common.git
Common Android Kernel Tree
kernel/experimental.git
Experimental Kernel Projects
kernel/linux-2.6.git
Mirror of git://git.kernel...
kernel/lk.git
(L)ittle (K)ernel bootloader
kernel/msm.git
Kernel Tree for MSM7XXX family...
kernel/omap.git
Someone should add a description to this

I was trying to figure out what kernel is on the Android 2.1 / Android
2.0 release and have rummaged through the new Android 2.0.1 release
notes:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.0.1.html

I have also dug through:

http://source.android.com/

But nothing really tells me what kernel is for what exactly. I can go
on and guess but I rather not. Was hoping someone could tell me which
kernel is used for the ongoing future Android releases and how to keep
track at which kernel a specific Android release got locked down to
and to easily determine at what kernel release it is on.

Thanks

 Hello Suzanne,

 I'm glad to hear that there is a fix in the works for this bug.
 Are you aware that there is also a bug when using the create intent?

 Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT,Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI);

 This does allow me to create a new contact, but the result it sends
 back to my onActivityResult callback is useless.

   protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent 
  data) {}

 Whenever the user is done creating a contact, I get a call to my on
 activity result with resultCode set to 0 (AKA: RESULT_CANCELED), and
 data is null;
 Even though the contact creation was successful!

 This is not the default Android behavior.
 When a user uses this intent to create a new contact, the
 onActivityResult should pass a -1 for the result (AKA: RESULT_OK).
 And the Intent data should contain a Uri to the newly created contact,
 accessible via data.getData().

 Since Motorola's implementation of contacts sends back RESULT_CANCELED
 for any contact insert, there's no way for our App that started the
 Intent to know when we have a valid result to act on.

 If Motorola completely re-implements parts of the Android OS, I really
 wish they would be careful not break the programmer interfaces.
 It makes us developers look bad when our Apps don't work on your
 devices when It really isn't even our fault.

 Thanks for your help.

[android-developers] How can I add a button to a linear layout 'right justified'

2010-01-05 Thread n179911

Hi,

I have a linear layout like this:

LinearLayout android:id=@+id/header
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:orientation=horizontal
android:gravity=center_vertical
ImageView android:id=@+id/icon
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:layout_gravity=top
android:src=@drawable/img1 /
TextView android:id=@+id/atitle
android:singleLine=true
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content /
/LinearLayout

And I need to add a button to the above layout programatically which
is right justified? I need to do that in code instead of layout xml
file (this is because i can't modify that layout xml file)

Here is what I am doing:
LinearLayout header = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.header);
 Button buyButton = new Button(this);
 buyButton.setText(R.string.buy_ringtone);
 buyButton.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
header.addView(buyButton);

But the button does not appear.  Can you please tell me how can i achieve that?

On Jan 4, 7:55 am, Tommy Hartz to...@webpro.com wrote:
 you can set the android:autoLink=all or whatever attribute you need in

So, to sum things up there is no way around using a custom TextView. I
am currently using the following code successfully, which I am
including for the archive:

-- 8 --
View view = View.inflate(MainActivity.this, R.layout.about, null);
TextView textView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.message);

textView.setText(R.string.Text_About);

The corresponding about.xml borrowed as a fragment from the Android

The important parts are setting linksClickable to true and
setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance()).

The problem may be that the TextView atitle has
android:layout_width=fill_parent.  Try setting it to wrap_content
and see if you get better results.

Unless the Activities that you want to show under the tabs are
activities in the same application you may run into the problem
described here regarding TabWidget -

  is right justified? I need to do that in code instead of layout xml

  Here is what I am doing:

   buyButton.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(

  header.addView(buyButton);

[android-developers] Re: Why is my eclipse up to date with 2.0.1 but no android tools appear in the UI?

2010-01-05 Thread ClarkBattle

Apparently this is a common issue with Windows 7 and eclipse plugins.
Eclipse does not like having more than one plug in at a time on
Windows 7.  Doing so may or may not work depending on how astrological
constellations align with the mating cycle of the Australian Gypsy
Moth.  The solution is to log in as admin and blow away C:\Users\admin
\.eclipse directory.  Eclipse will recreate it when you restart it.
You then have to re-enter the plug-in url for android and update it.
This time android will be the only plug in.  Not even the ones that
came with Eclipse will be there.  This fixed it for me.

[android-developers] Nexus 2.1 one sale, WHERE is the SDK!

2010-01-05 Thread pcm2a

These phones are on sale with 2.1 Os on them right now.  My friend
just ordered two with overnight shipping.

How is it even remotely acceptable that people will have 2.1 in their
hands before developers even get to touch the SDK?  I already have
users using the Nexis-Droid 2.1 rom saying that my highly used widget
doesn't work.  How am I supposed to test this out in advance without
hacking our phone all up?

All this does is frustrate users when apps don't work and further
degrades the market with 1 stars because developers don't have a
chance to update their code.

Thanks google

Sorry for the confusion.  Yes, correct, mixing localization in any
strings, not necessary button labels, any place that text can be
displayed, such as check boxes, text fields, radio buttons, etc.  For
example, I want to display English characters in 1 button label / text

Hope this is clearer.

 Have your Overlay class implement the Parceable interface, which you can
 then save to / restore from a Bundle.


hmmm, in my case i have always a new overlay for each line on my map:
in every iteration/run of the onLocationChanged method i call
overlay = new MyOverlay()
before i know the MyLocationOverlay i draw my current location with
the drawOval and for this overlay-object (my_pos = new MyOverlay
(...) ) i use the parcelable.
But i dont know how i can save my other normal overlays, because in
each iteration/run i override my overlay object?

I'm assuming that you don't need to be able to switch the application

P.S. I don't think you really meant mix localizations. Unicode allows you
to mix characters from any language in a document. However, bidi (direction
of the text) can be tricky.

[android-developers] Re: Designing a UI for Board Game

2010-01-05 Thread Lance Nanek

One way to do it is to have the game pieces be Drawable instances.
Those can be positioned using the setBounds method:
http://developer.android.com/intl/zh-TW/reference/android/graphics/drawable/Drawable.html#setBounds%28android.graphics.Rect%29

And drawn to a Canvas using the draw method:
http://developer.android.com/intl/zh-TW/reference/android/graphics/drawable/Drawable.html#draw%28android.graphics.Canvas%29

There are various ways to get a Canvas, such as subclassing View and
overriding the onDraw method:

[android-developers] Re: List with image items

2010-01-05 Thread Brion Emde

You would have to do memory management on your list, if you plan to
keep all those images in memory. The list view knows which views are
exposed and which aren't. You'd have to re-fetch any views you deleted
to keep within memory limits.

You could cache you images in the local file system or in a database.
Both of those options would get them out of RAM.
