Based on your previous post about floods, I would strongly urge you to
rework your app into a single app, remove ALL the 120+ apps you have on the
market and republish a single app that makes use of server side data for the
location issue you are facing. As several said in your other post, your
design is fundamentally flawed and thus causing you this rather embarassing
issue of trying to maintain all those apps that are basically identical with
the exception of the location specific data each app has to contain.

Also, something to think about.. I came across an app the other day that had
one version for each language it supported. There were about 20 of them. The
english version had a few downloads, the rest had none. You are basically
asking your end users to sift through 120 or so apps of yours to find the
one that best fits them. That is a horrible design/idea. I personally would
give up if it wasn't the first few on the list. Think of your end users..
what you are putting them thru by telling them to basically go search for
the specific version of your app they need for their area. Even if they can
search on your app name and enter their area.. to have to specifically
search with my location to find the right app.. if it even comes up..is
ridiculous.

Seriously, I am not sure how you have coded your app to access the location
data.. but I bet a few days.. a week at most, you could rewrite that portion
to download the data from a server, and load it in as needed. You would do
your end users a big favor, yourself a huge favor avoiding the issue you now
face, and the community/market a massive favor by not seeing your app yet
again on the Just in list 120 times.

I honestly am surprised your app has not been banned due to the floods. I
mean no disrespect, like I said in your other post, you may be a very good
developer and your app may be flawless.. but this one issue is plaguging
you, your end users and the rest of the community all at once.

Fix it.. do the right thing. You'll be a lot happier as will the rest of the
end users and those complaining of the flooding for good reason.

 Hello

 We would like to be able to update our apps, but there are a large
 number of them and we are getting negative responses from other
 developers regarding market flooding. We would like to resolve this.
 Originally, we believed that updating the VersionCode WITHOUT updating
 the VersionName would resolve this and allow us to do a silent
 update that would not appear in the Just In section, but it seems we
 were wrong, as an app update just flooded the Just In section.

 Any ideas? We would like to get this resolved based on feedback from
 the community. I have a query in the Android Help as well.

 Thanks

[android-developers] Suspicious TCP RST packets while device is sleeping.

2010-02-02 Thread Dan Sherman

Hey guys, trying to track down a rather elusive problem here...

I've been playing around with long-standing TCP connections to a server.

The client opens a TCP connection to the server, sets a timeout at a
reasonably long period (30 minutes), and adds an AlarmManager task to ping
the server every 15 (a ping is just a junk packet the server responds to
with an application-level ack).  Nothing fancy, and everything works
correctly on the emulator.  The client stays connected to the server for as
long as I've left it alone (a few hours easily).

However, as soon as it runs on device, I receive some interesting behavior
when the device is sleeping (CPU completely off if I understand correctly).

If I let the device connect, and go to sleep (can't be 100% certain it is
asleep, but I wait a good few minutes).  And have the server send an
un-expected packet to the client, the client most definitely wakes up,
processes the packet, and sends a response.  The wakeup noticibly takes a
few extra seconds, but this isn't an issue.

The issue comes in if I let the device sleep for a more extended period of
time (somewhere around 5 minutes).  At this time, I see the server drop the
connection as reset, and the client sit there sleeping.  As soon as the
device is woken up (by my intervention), and I try to do any network
actions, it notices the connection isn't good anymore, and starts a
reconnect (hard-coded to reconnect).

I've been running tcpdump on both the client, and the server.

The interaction is as follows:
Server's point of view:
- Client connects (a few packets back and forth, application level, etc)
- 5ish minutes pass (device is sleeping)
- Client sends a reset packet (connection is torn down, expected)

From the client's point of view:
- Connection startup (a few packets back and forth, application level, etc)
- Device goes to sleep


The client never sees the TCP reset packet.  Once woken by something
external (me, the AlarmManager task, etc), the client immediately sees a RST
packet from the server, tears down the connection, and starts over.

Anyone care to chime in with ideas as to what is happening?  My only
thoughts are that someone in between is killing the connection due to not
seeing any data send between the two after a certain amount of time, however
the time between the last packet, and the RST isn't a consistent period...

This behavior is happening when running a G1 on Tmobile's 3g US network.  It
happens when the server code is running both remotely (machine in Texas), as
well as when its running on local machine (Florida).

Hari, as far as I know you'd usually parse the document into an object, do
any updating of the object, then write it back out overwriting the previous
version. SAX doesn't store the xml in memory, it streams it, like xmlpull
does and you assemble an object tree from the xml as your needs require. You
don't have to assmble an object tree that is identical to the xml as well.
This is probably part of the reason DOM is so slow and requires as much as
8x the XML size in memory to store. Frankly, I'd go with xmlpull. It's
vastly easier to work with and generally as fast if not faster than sax.

[android-developers] Re: How to achieve ultra smooth OpenGL/ES animation

2010-02-02 Thread Mario Zechner

I also had to fight this problem for a racing game. As Robert
suggested, average your delta times, it's the only way you can smooth
things out. I use a window of 5 frames per second for which i sum up
the delta times and divide by the number of frames. An example

15ms, 15ms, 33ms, 15ms, 15ms will give you an average delta time of
18.6ms for frame 6. The 33ms will also influence the delta time of the
next 4 frames after it. To avoid that effect you could use weighted
averaging: frame delta times that are newer receive a higher weight
(just an example, haven't boughtered using it)

Hello Android OpenGL/real-time gurus,

I am drawing a pretty simple scene, with one large texture the about
size of the screen (two triangles). I notice that the frame-rate is
irregular: in most of cases, a frame finishes in 17 ms. However, in
about 1 of 10 times, the frame finishes in 33ms.

My guess is probably some background services need to run. However,
the Linux scheduler is biased towards my FG app, so the BG services
are usually starved, until they can't take it anymore and they grab
the CPU from my app 

I am seeing stuttering in the animation. Is this due to the irregular
frame rate? Should I delay each frame so that all frames are rendered
with 33ms frame time? If so, what's the best technique of achieving
this?

Is there an API that I can call to guarantee CPU resources for the
render thread  I really hope Android runs on some sort of real
time kernel ...

Thanks!

[android-developers] Problem with invalidate

2010-02-02 Thread Keean Schupke

If I have two views in a linear layout, and invalidate one of them, it
causes the other view to redraw needlessly. Im my application on view
is animated, and the other takes a long time to draw, this is causing
problems with the animation.

From experimentation it seems that putting the slow layout inside an
extra LinearLayout prevents the unnecessary redraw, as does separating
the two views by a 1 pixel margin. Looking at the code in the sdk it
seems the dirty rectangle for each view is (top, left, top + width,
bottom + width), which means neighboring clip and dirty rectangles
overlap by one pixel, causing the additional unwanted redraw.

Is this a but in the Android SDK, or is it intended. If intended, why?

Cheers,
Keean.

[android-developers] Re: [TransitionDrawable ImageView] Bug fix on android 2.1 ?

2010-02-02 Thread Worgle

Hi Romain,

Thanks for taking the time to answer this yourself.
You're probably right : the fix was probably made on ListView rather
that on TransitionDrawable.

The reason I need to know where the fix was is that I have to maintain
backward compatibility with Android 1.5, thus I would be happy to find
a workaround for this little bug.

I looked at the diffs (since Android 2.1 source code was pushed on
public git repository today !) but I wasn't able to find the fix yet.
I'll keep looking for it.

PS : Désolé pour mon anglais, et au passage merci pour ce sympatique
framework. :)

On Feb 1, 7:37 pm, Romain Guy romain...@android.com wrote:
 Hi,

 Why exactly do you need to know what the fix was? I don't remember
 doing anything to fix TransitionDrawable so it's probably one of the
 numerous fixes that went into ListView itself that's responsible for
 the new correct behavior.

  Hello,

  It seams to me that a bug was fixed between android 2.0.1 and 2.1
  about TransitionDrawable (or maybe ImageView).

  When using TransitionDrawable in a ListView (with convert view
  mechanism) in android 2.0.1 and below, I can't see the Transition if I
  scroll rapidly to the end of the list, and then go back to the middle
  (even through I'm calling startTransition). Note that my
  TransitionDrawable is set as the image of an ImageView.
  (Tested on emulators from 1.6 to 2.1, and on real devices : G2 with
  1.5, G2 with 1.6 and Nexuos One with 2.1)

  But with android 2.1, the bug magically disappeared ! I'm quite happy
  but I still want backward compatibility...

  So is there anyone on the android team a bit less busy than the others
  who could run a diff on TransitionDrawable and ImageView between 2.01
  and 2.1 and tell us what's going on ? :)

  Of course the change could have occured on LayerDrawable or other
  parent's classes as well...

  Thanks,

  Fabien

  PS : here's part of my code

                     Drawable drawableOld = this.getDrawable();
                     Drawable drawableNew = new BitmapDrawable
  (bitmap);
                     Drawable[] layers = {drawableOld, drawableNew};
                     TransitionDrawable transitionDrawable = new
  TransitionDrawable(layers);
                     transitionDrawable.setCrossFadeEnabled(true);
                     setImageDrawable(transitionDrawable);
                     transitionDrawable.startTransition
  (TRANSITION_DURATION);

[android-developers] reg AttributeSet

2010-02-02 Thread priyanka

Hello,

I'd like to use a non-compiled file (that I get dynamically from my
server) in order to fetch the AttributeSet for a component. To put it
another way - I'd like to create an AttributeSet at runtime. Is that
possible?

If the only way to do this is by implementing the AttributeSet
interface, then can you please give me some pointers on how to go
about it?

I thought I might use XmlResourceParser class probably, but I am
unable to create an object of XmlResourceParser at runtime with a non-
compiled file.

I am working on Android 2.0.1. I don't mind even if I have to use a
newer SDK(2.1) in order to achieve this.

Please feel free to ask for clarifications in case I haven't put
across my point clearly.

Thanks a lot,
Priyanka

[android-developers] Re: Move the virtual keyboard to the top of the screen (SIP - IME)

2010-02-02 Thread flsobral

It would also be helpful to make the virtual keyboard always be shown
in fullscreen.
I tried to extend the class InputMethodService overriding
onEvaluateFullscreenMode to always return true, but I had the
following problems:
- My application UI is still shown above the keyboard, even after
setting the attribute android:imeFullscreenBackground.
- Selecting another control other than the one that activated the
keyboard makes the application hang.
- Couldn't find a way to show the keyboard with the Done button
instead of enter.

[android-developers] Re: Temperature Sensors

2010-02-02 Thread JFrog

If I was to make an assumption, I would guess that the temperature
reading is up to the hardware device itself if there were one there.
Anything in the API that the Android SDK provides would confine the
hardware to follow a particular format for sharing the data with
people, but it would not define how the hardware gets its reading.
Also, make sure that your device actually has one of those sensors.
Just because the sensor exists in the API means that the phone you are
using actually has that sensor available to you.

~JFrog
Debugging something is twice as hard as coding it the first time.
Therefore, if we code as cleverly as possible, we are by definition
not smart enough to debug it.

[android-developers] Re: soft keyboard does not show when creating EditText inside a TableRow dynamically (programmatically )

If a EditText is created not within the TableLayout, this dynamically
created EditText works as expected.  The soft keyboard pops up when
first clicking into the newly created EditText.  This must have
something to do with the way the EditText is created inside a new
row.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Code to add an EditText outside the TableLayout works as expected:

LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.LinearLayout01);
layout.addView(new EditText(this));

[android-developers] Re: Binding list views to large data sets

2010-02-02 Thread THill

Hehe, that was my reply when I started the project sigh.

A crude use case example is where the records are like short log
entries, and you want to scroll through them to watch events over a
time span.  You need a big window, since in some time frames, there
may be few records; in others, there may be thousands -- the data
density varies  you can't just give them an index since they may not
know what time range will cover what they need to know.

I'm doing the query  changing the SimpleCursorAdapter cursor in the
background via AsyncTask, then binding the adapter to the list in
onPostExecute.  Binding to the list has to be done in the UI thread,
hence the UI freeze during the bind (as the list requests the row
count from the adapter).

Now, I can avoid the UI freeze by doing a cursor.getCount (source of
the delay) before binding to the list, but then I have some cursor
management issues when the activity goes away due to a rotate --
either stall the onStop/onDestroy until the cursor.getCount completes
 the cursor can be closed, or keep the cursor static  risk the
overhead if it is abandoned.

Unless I'm misunderstanding your suggestion, paging won't work because
you'd still need to know the row count (incur delay) before deciding
if/how to paginate.

The iPhone version of our app works without any of these issues, so
I'm hoping that I'm just missing something (and that it's not an
Android limitation).

Other ideas?

Thanks
Tom

 The standard reply is going to be you'll never actually need to view
 all 20K rows, so either page it out or filter the results to a more
 manageable number.  Then again, if an end user is willing to scroll
 through 20K rows, they might be willing to wait 5s for it to load :)

 Past that, I assume you're extending a CursorAdapter, you can use
 setEmptyView on the ListView to show a progress dialog, run your query
 on a background thread (or AsyncTask), then use a Handler (or the
 AsyncTask) to call changeCursor w/the results of the query.  It will
 at least feel more responsive in that the UI doesn't just freeze while
 it's working.

  I need to be able to scroll through alistwith (up to) 20K rows,

  Testing 20K rows on a G1, the query takes approx .02s regardless of
  table size, while binding the adapter to thelisttakes 4.5s.  Note
  that this is before the view calls used in rendering.

  What makes the binding delay more troublesome is that it blocks the UI
  thread, and is incurred on every rotate.  Combine these, and doing a
  rotate just after starting thebindresults in a delay up to 9s.

  I tried lazy loading with a base adapter, but that hits the same delay
  in the underlying cursor.getCount(), and the overall user experience
  isn't ideal.

  I also considered using an ArrayAdapter, adding synthesized objects
  from the cursor rows, but then I'd incur the overhead of creating up
  to 20K objects (not to mention the additional memory requirements).

  Any recommended alternatives or workarounds?

[android-developers] OpenGL App crashes on Nexus One

2010-02-02 Thread Toothy Bunny

Hi All,
Do not know anybody could give a hint for the problem I have. Our
OpenGL games are built based on SDK 1.2 and runs almost all Android
devices (from OS 1.2 ~ 2.0) except Google Nexus One (OS 2.1). On Nexus
One, it generates the following exception:

02-01 09:26:28.319: DEBUG/libEGL(2340): loaded /system/lib/egl/

(The same error messages repeats for ever inside the animation

We are using our own SurfaceView (almost same as GLSurfaceView) and I
believe we got the correct  EGLContext (otherwise a NULL EGLContext
error message will pop out). The problem is that the same code runs on
about 10 different Android phones from OS 1.2 to 2.0 (including Moto
Droid) but failed on Nexus. Any body at Android OpenGL team could give
a suggestion on the error message?

[android-developers] onKeyUp not getting called after EditText regains focus

2010-02-02 Thread Adam Olsen

I've got a subclass of EditText text that stops receiving KeyEvents
after losing and then regaining focus.  Here is an example class:

class MyEditText extends EditText {
public MyEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}

@Override
public void onKeyUp(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
System.out.println(KeyCode:  + keyCode);

return super.onKeyUp(keyCode, event);
}

I've got two of these on a page.  If I focus one of them and start
typing, I receive the KeyEvents just fine.  However, if I focus the
other EditText, and then refocus the first one, it no longer calls the
custom onKeyUp method anymore.  I don't understand what I'm doing
wrong here, it seems like a fairly simple task.

What do I need to do so that it receives the event?

[android-developers] Help needed with parsing some XML data !

2010-02-02 Thread MobDev

Hi,
I am downloading a xml-type file from a webserver which starts out
with :

?xml version=1.0 encoding=iso-8859-1 ?

afterwards I get a list with loads of countries, some countries do
contain some letters like é and á.

I have tried to extract the data of the xml in two ways :
1 - simply download the whole thing into a String, which will result
in those characters being seen as something like [] or on the Android
emulator (and device) I will see a triangle with a ? in it...

2 - fetch the list with the SAXParser and XMLReader which will just
throw an exception telling me that there is some content error...
specifically at the line where the first country is with such a
character...

So is there some way to get this to work ? Can I read the iso-8859-1
encoded xml into the Parser ? Or is there some way to encode/decode
the received data into something actually usable ?
Any idea where the problem might be ?

Thanks in advance for any hints, tips, code or explanation :D

[android-developers] Moving the cursor to the beginning of an EditText

2010-02-02 Thread Adam Olsen

Using the following code, I am able to move the cursor after the first
character on the left in an EditText:

EditText editText = new EditText(this);
Editable etext = editText.getText();
Selection.setSelection(etext, 1);

However, if I change it to Selection.setSelection(etext, 0) with the
goal of moving the cursor to the beginning of the text, it moves the
cursor (or doesn't move the cursor) to the end of the line instead of
the beginning.

How can I move the cursor to the beginning of the text?

[android-developers] Segfault in Bitmap.getPixel()

2010-02-02 Thread Mario Zechner

Hi,

I have a larger 512x512 32-bit ARGB Bitmap loaded from a PNG in my
application. I traverse each pixel in this bitmap as follows:

int height = bitmap.getHeight()-1;
for( int y = 0; y  bitmap.getHeight(); y++ )
{
   for( int x = 0; x  bitmap.getWidth(); x++ )
   {
  int pixel = bitmap.getPixel( x, y);
  collisionMap[x][height-y] =  pixel != -1 ?(byte)BACKGROUND_PIXEL:
0;
   }
}

I check each pixel in the bitmap for a specific color value and set a
byte in a corresponding 2D array that has the same dimensions as the
image. This works perfectly fine on my droid, on my hero as well as on
the emulator. I send the app containing this code to some other people
that have a g1 and a mytouch and there this few lines fail horribly
with a segfault:

The bitmap is loaded successfully otherwise i'd get a
NullPointerException when requesting its height in the first line of
code. It seems that Bitmap.getPixel() fails with a segfault.

I have not the slightest clou of what is happening here. The really
frightening part is that it works on the droid,hero and emulator but
not on g1 hardware. I'd really appreciate any pointers.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Binding list views to large data sets

 A crude use case example is where the records are like short log
 entries, and you want to scroll through them to watch events over a
 time span.  You need a big window, since in some time frames, there
 may be few records; in others, there may be thousands -- the data
 density varies  you can't just give them an index since they may not
 know what time range will cover what they need to know.

That still doesn't mean you should be loading 20K records in a single query.

 I'm doing the query  changing the SimpleCursorAdapter cursor in the
 background via AsyncTask, then binding the adapter to the list in
 onPostExecute.  Binding to the list has to be done in the UI thread,
 hence the UI freeze during the bind (as the list requests the row
 count from the adapter).

Correct. The UI freeze timing is because a query is done lazily -- the
query is not truly executed against the database until data is actually
needed. A call to getCount() is the likely first statement that will
trigger the actual query.

Hence, don't load 20K records in a single query.

 Now, I can avoid the UI freeze by doing a cursor.getCount (source of
 the delay) before binding to the list, but then I have some cursor
 management issues when the activity goes away due to a rotate --
 either stall the onStop/onDestroy until the cursor.getCount completes
  the cursor can be closed, or keep the cursor static  risk the
 overhead if it is abandoned.

Or handle the UI change yourself by indicating in the manifest you will
handle those configuration changes, then override onConfigurationChanged()
and adjust your UI as needed.

 Unless I'm misunderstanding your suggestion, paging won't work because
 you'd still need to know the row count (incur delay) before deciding
 if/how to paginate.

Use the LIMIT and OFFSET terms on your SELECT statement to obtain data in
smaller chunks. Create a wrapping adapter (like my EndlessAdapter) that
only loads chunks when the user scrolls to the bottom of the list and
therefore needs more data.

I did find a handful of examples in samples/ApiDemos/res/drawable.
The xml files in that directory are all examples of using shapes and

Some of this is mentioned in the javadocs for
android.graphics.drawable. Some xml elements like corners and
gradient are not documented anywhere that I know of. The attributes
for shape are listed in GradientDrawable but then these apparently
are also the attributes for gradient according some of the examples.

So I guess it is at least supported as part of the API, even if you
have to reverse engineer it to figure out the features.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with expandable list view

2010-02-02 Thread NoraBora

I had a cannot-click-item problem with ListView.

In my case the android:inputType in TextView was the problem.

You should try removing attributes in text2.

Maybe start with 'android:numeric=integer'?

You sure can record videos at that resolution but only with the in-

Try writing your own recorder app and you will see the difference.

Also, when I try using the CAMERA as VideoSource instead of DEFAULT,

MediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.DEFAULT)

Am I doing something wrong? Which is the best configuration (encoding

 The bitmap is loaded successfully otherwise i'd get a
 NullPointerException when requesting its height in the first line of
 code. It seems that Bitmap.getPixel() fails with a segfault.

 I have not the slightest clou of what is happening here. The really
 frightening part is that it works on the droid,hero and emulator but
 not on g1 hardware. I'd really appreciate any pointers.

Hi All

How to close one task in special.

I can see the task with

ActivityManager manager =  (ActivityManager)this.getSystemService
(ACTIVITY_SERVICE );  ;
ListRunningTaskInfo list = manager.getRunningTasks(10);
if (list.get(1).baseActivity.getShortClassName().equalsIgnoreCase
(.))

thanks

[android-developers] Re: BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray gives pixelated bitmap

2010-02-02 Thread michael

Hi again,

So I finally figured out that the problem is due to my mobile network
operator doing image compression to save bandwidth. I discussed the
problem further at the following URL, in case it could be of help to
anybody:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2183808/android-bitmapfactory-decodebytearray-gives-pixelated-bitmap/2185694#2185694

I don't suppose there is anything I can do to get around this, but if
anybody has an idea, it would be much welcome (-:

Best,
Michael.

Hi,

You are resaving a JPEG. You'll be compressing twice.

Why don't you try to directly save the data obtained from the URL to a

the JPG file from Flickr.

Thanks for the suggestion!

However, saving the bitmap to a JPEG file was really just to
illustrate thepixelationproblem - I assumed there would be no
quality loss with the quality parameter set to 100. What I'm actually
doing is to draw the bitmap downloaded from Flickr onto a canvas in
the onDraw method of my View class:

Paint paint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG |
Paint.FILTER_BITMAP_FLAG);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, paint);

Pixelationsimilar to that shown in my example pictures then occurs.
Any idea why this would be the case?

Note that bitmaps loaded from my project resources draw just fine
using this approach; although if I downscale using the
Bitmap.createScaledBitmap() method, a similarpixelationproblem
occurs. This problem was discussed e.g. here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2041207/android-quality-of-the-ima...

but none of the suggested solutions seem to improve the situation in
my case.

Thanks again for your suggestions, I really hope there is a solution
to this issue.
Best,
Michael.

[android-developers] Problem with TabActivity and ListActivity

2010-02-02 Thread RamaMohan

Hi all,
I am having a problem.I want to explain in detail.
1)I am Having an TabActivity with 5 tabs. I loaded content as follows.
   class MainScreen extends TabActivity{
public static TabHost mTabHost;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tab);

   TabHost mTabHost = getTabHost();

mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec(excercise)

.setIndicator(excercise,getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.exr))
.setContent(new Intent(this,Excercise.class)));
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec(graphs)

.setIndicator(graphs,getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.graph))
.setContent(new Intent(this,Graphs.class)));
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec(gymlocator)
.setIndicator(gym 
locator,getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.gym))
.setContent(new Intent(this,Gymlocator.class)));
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec(my account)
.setIndicator(my 
account,getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.my))
.setContent(new Intent(this,Myaccount.class)));
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec(Music)
.setIndicator(Music,getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.music))
.setContent(new Intent(this,Music.class)));

mTabHost.setCurrentTab(0);
}
tab.xml

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
TabHost xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:id=@android:id/tabhost
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent
LinearLayout
android:orientation=vertical android:background=@drawable/

android:layout_height=wrap_content /
FrameLayout
android:id=@android:id/tabcontent
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent

/FrameLayout
/LinearLayout
/TabHost


And the Problem is If i want to start activity which is not specified
in tabhost in above Java code,it is going out of tabactivity.
ie.,It is not coming in tabactivity.

2)But i want to have all the activities under tabActivity.
   Please i nee dthe solution urgent.
  If any one knows please tell me .

I hope you i am clear with my problem.

[android-developers] Re: device shaked? accelerometer once more

2010-02-02 Thread kretes

yes, my device wasn't entirely horizontal or vertical.

However what I am looking for is function that will give me the same
value when the device is not in movement, but in any position, it can
be on a slant, it can be almost vertically, or in unknown position in
some pocket, but without movement.

The problem is that I would like to be able to create a universal
function here, that would fit all accelerometer-enabled phones, not my
device.

I guess I will let the user calibrate it by putting it horizontal
without movement and calculating maximum 'real force', multiplying it
by some constant like 1.2.
Or additionally ignore first/second 'shakes' and process next one,
which fill be kind-of filter for the peaks.

Because I can't let myself accept any false positives.

If somebody have a better solution - please tell.

 I'm not that familiar with how the sensor works, but judging from the
 values you report, i looks like the device is not entire horizontal or

 Your computeRealForce hovers around 0.4 (horizontally) or -1
 (vertically).

 I guess you have to find a proper 'baseline' against which you can
 measure any deviation. In the horizontal case that would be around
 0.4, in  the vertical case that would be around -1.

 However, it could be that your device was not precisely horizontal or
 precisely vertical. How would you know the 'baseline'? I don't know...
 Maybe 0 or -1 is precisely horizontal or vertical and you can't assume
 that your device will be ever exactly horizontal or vertical...

 I guess you have to measure over a period of time and see what the
 deviation is. If it's small enough, your phone is in rest.

  There has been a few discussions about it, but there is still not a
  good solution.
  Simple problem - recognize when the device is laying somewhere not
  moving (in relation to earth) and when is moving.
  Accelerometer seems to be a good sensor to use.

  First suprise came to me, when I logged data from the sensor events.
  When the device (htc hero) is laying on the table - the values are
  changing!
  sth. like
  -0.7, -0.7, 10.1
  -0.6, -0.8, 10.0
  and so on - fluctuating

  I haven't expected that, but let's go on - I thought I woudl compute
  the real force, and went with

  private double computeRealForce(SensorEvent event) {
                  return Math.sqrt(Math.pow(event.values[0], 2)
                                  + Math.pow(event.values[1], 2)
                                  + Math.pow(event.values[2], 2))
                                  - SensorManager.GRAVITY_EARTH;

          }

  very similiar approach as seen 
  inhttp://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/blob/master/Sensor/Shaker/...
  and similiar 
  inhttp://www.anddev.org/example_detecting_-und-quotshake-und-quot_with_...

  and the computed value also fluctuates,
  0,35
  0,39
  0,4
  but I can apply force treshold like 0,5 as a kind of filter and
  everything is ok.

  But when I put my phone to stand vertically - suddenly my computed
  force turned out to be
  -1,01
  -1,05

  I give up - I don't know what is the good enough solution -
  the one that would give around zero value when the device isn't moving
  in relation to earth - is there any?

David,
The output shows you have a null pointer at line 93 of your activity.
Look there for a solution.
Also, I noticed you have System.out.println. Where are you expecting
the println output to appear? You might want to replace that with
Android.util.log.

[android-developers] Re: ANDROID_ID always null on devices

2010-02-02 Thread Rampanda

Found the cause:

The android_id is not available unless you have logged onto the
android market at least once from a device.
Once you've done that, the ID is populated and returned by the device.

Using the android_id does raise a couple of privacy questions though,
but that's food for another thread.

Hope this helps.

[android-developers] Re: TextView scrollHorizontally doesn't work

Actually I have tried both marquee and scrollHorizontally.  There was
a previous topic that I responded to a couple of days ago with the
marquee layout code (that also doesn't work).

http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/5f466bd386877029

I was suspecting that some of the TextView attributes are only valid
for EditText views.  Is that right - and if so how do you know which
TextView attributes are only valid for EditText views?

This seems pretty basic - how to use a wide line of text on a small
screen device. What are good ways to deal with this use case?

[android-developers] Splitting connections?

2010-02-02 Thread Eric Crump

I have an app that runs on a closed network with no internet access.
I connect to it through wifi.  My app also uses Google Maps.  Is there
a way to make the MapView still pull from my 3G connection while the
rest of the app uses the wifi?  The issue is once connected to the
wifi, maps tries to pull from the internet and can't get there so my
MapView is always blank.

Try a band-pass filter. Remove the low frequencies (such as the constant 1 g
falling) and the high frequencies (such as bumping and vibrating). Look up
digitial filters. Chances are some simple 24 line algorithm will do the
trick. I'm going to try myself using the accelerometer demo app when I get
some time.

Hey guys and gals,

I am trying to add a bit of a narration in the form of augmented reality to

his/her handset to a location X and I want an MP3 file or WAV

It should just work, assuming you're creating your own camera preview.
Just use MediaPlayer or AsyncPlayer or something for the voiceover.

[android-developers] Writing files SDCard on Emulator

2010-02-02 Thread Acer

Hello,

I'm a beginner in Android and request any help on the following.

I'm trying to use an SDCard loaded on to the Emulator and store files
programmatically.

The code snippet is as below

public class Downloader {
public Downloader(String path) {
this.path=sanitize(path);
Log.d(DEBUG,The File Path is  + path);
}


public String sanitize(String path) {
if (!path.startsWith(/)) {
path = / + path;
}

return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()
+path;
}

public void start() throws IOException {
// Check if Media is mounted else throw IOException
String state = Environment.getExternalStorageState();
if(state != Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED) {
Log.d(DEBUG, The Card is Not Mounted  + state +--);
throw new IOException (SD Card is not Mounted. It is in  + state);
}

}

With the above code I'm able to see the The Card is Not Mounted --
message in the logcat. I'm making use of the following permissions in
the manifest.xml

uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE/

Questions
1. Are there additional permissions to be included?
2. The Downloader.java is a helper class whose object is being used in
a Receiver. Does giving the receiver the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE would
also enable Downloader.java to access the SDCard
3. Any other suggestions

Best Regards
Acer

The permission should be for your application, not for an individual

this permission being missing.

Are you sure your emulator has an SD card image? They don't by default.

Yes I think it has SD card image as I'm able to see the same through DDMS

However, when I try and access it through Downloader.java I get Card Not

Print out a sensor name and google up the datasheet

it's not the best and finest chip out there.  Resolution is pretty

But that restriction is only for your mobile network. Chances are it

Maybe your network tries to have you sign up for a better data-package

   the JPG file from Flickr.

  Thanks for the suggestion!

  However, saving the bitmap to a JPEG file was really just to
  illustrate thepixelationproblem - I assumed there would be no
  quality loss with the quality parameter set to 100. What I'm actually
  doing is to draw the bitmap downloaded from Flickr onto a canvas in

  Paint paint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG |
  Paint.FILTER_BITMAP_FLAG);
  canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, paint);

  Pixelationsimilar to that shown in my example pictures then occurs.
  Any idea why this would be the case?

  Note that bitmaps loaded from my project resources draw just fine
  using this approach; although if I downscale using the
  Bitmap.createScaledBitmap() method, a similarpixelationproblem
  occurs. This problem was discussed e.g. here:

[android-developers] Re: getChildAt sometimes giving wrong child at particular position?

2010-02-02 Thread Streets Of Boston

The getChildAt(x) method of a list-view does not return the view of
item number 'x'. It returns, more or less, the 'x'th visible child-
view of your list-view.

If you want to access an item amongst all your possible items that can
be shown in your list-view, you have to access it throug the list-
view's adapter (ListAdapter class, BaseAdapter class, etc).

 Hi,

 I'm trying to verify this - my app has the following in its manifest:

  supports-screens
   android:smallScreens=true
   android:normalScreens=true
   android:largeScreens=true
   android:anyDensity=true
   /

  uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=3 android:targetSdkVersion=5 /
  uses-feature android:name=android.hardware.camera /

 but it still does not appear fortattoo. Is there something else we
 need to add? It does have a camera, right?

 Thanks

  Hi,

  It does indeed only show apps which are compatible with the device.

   moneytoo thanks,

   You exactly answered what i want to know!! because android would have
   been the first software to not ensure ascending compatibility if i had
   to have to build  ;)

   I just hope is the unique reason why it does not appear ontattoo.
   Saying that just because i would be surprised that the market search
   done by users check on the fly only the apk compatible with device. If
   it is able to do that on the fly WoW  this is the god OS.

   Thank you.

   Just build your app using 1.6 SDK and add the supports-screens tag.
   Your app will be visible on devices 1.5 and later if you use uses-sdk
   android:minSdkVersion=3 / and will work as long you don't use 1.6
   specific API.

   Thank you Sena for your hint,

   i developped my app on version 3 uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=3 /

   the supports-screens android:smallScreens=true
                   android:normalScreens=true android:largeScreens=true
                   android:anyDensity=true /

   is for 1.6 + sdk 

   Does it mean a 1.5 based APK is not visible on market for low density
   device?

   If the device are 1.6 + android based no problem i will update the APK
   sdk but if some remain on 1.5 does it mean i need to version of my app
   which i think it is impossible for package name rule on Android
   Market.

   Thank you.

   Thetattoohas a low density screen if I remember correctly. Your 
   application would have to support low density screens explicitly for 
   it to show up in the market.

[android-developers] Re: What does a good app review look like?

2010-02-02 Thread dadical

I'm biased since you guys actually have reviewed my app, but I think
you have some interesting ideas.  Here are some of my observations
with respect to reviews.

1. Reviews always result in a significant bump up in sales/downloads.
It actually doesn't matter whether the review was positive or negative
all that much.  I've sometimes seen more early play from a review that
is mostly negative in tone than from one that is gushing.  Definitely
balance between the pros and cons helps to lend legitimacy.
2. Format of the review DOES seem to matter.  I've noticed that longer
more detailed reviews tend to have more legs in the long run.  Also,
reviews that are well organized with lots of screen shots or other
media seem to deliver more hits.
3. Reviews that include interviews help to personalize the application
and the brand.  I think that more devs need to put their face on
their apps and develop personal loyalty.  Schwimmer, Coryat and others
come to mind as doing this successfully.  It's not vanity, it's
branding.

 We're trying to carve a niche out for app reviews at approaster.com,
 but I'm really interested in hearing devs perspectives on what makes a
 good review.  What's the right length?  How much information is too
 much?  How long do you get activity out of a review?

 Thanks for your input!
