[android-developers] Re: Displaying the ProgressDialog from the OpenGL thread.
Create an android.os.Handler subclass on the UI thread and pass that
to the renderer instead of a Runnable. It has methods for sending
messages and handling them. The renderer would send a message. The
subclass would handle it to show a dialog on the UI thread.

Hi!
Does anyone have expirience with opengl-ui-opengl threading
interraction?
I'am developing a small opengl application. I'am a little bit confused
with separate opengl thread...
Currently, my application is logically separated in two parts - the
controlling one and the rendering one.
The controlling part interracts with user - accepting user input,
changing activities, dealing with files and so on.
The rendering part - just render everything it should.
Ok, so when I need to load new texture to opengl (unfortunatelly its
large and I cant reduce its size), I'd like to show a ProgerssDialog
dialog.
Trying to show it from the open gl thread brings me an exception:
Can't create handler inside thread that has not called
Looper.prepare().
Because the initiator of loading is in the ui thread (for example -
user selected a menu option), I'am opening the dialog, adding the load
Runnable to stack on Runnables that will be called in
Render.onDrawFrame and passing there a callback that will be executed
after texture is loaded.
Like this:
//ui
public class Controller extends Activity {
...
protected void loadTexture(InputStream aStream) {
final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
dialog.setTitle(Please wait...);
dialog.setMessage(Loading texture);
dialog.show();
_renderer.loadTexture(_stream, new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
dialog.dismiss();
}});
}
...
}
//gl
public class SceneRenderer implements Renderer {
@Override
public void onDrawFrame(GL10 aGL) {
this.runGLRunnables(aGL);
}
public void loadTexture(final InputStream aStream, final Runnable
aCallback) {
_glRunnablesStack.push(new GLRunnable() {
@Override
public void run(GL10 aGL) {
SceneRenderer.this.doLoadTexture(aStream);
aCallback.run();
};});
}
}
So the question is: Is there any way to show ProgressDialog from the
opengl thread?
I need exactly the ProgressDialog. There is a way to show some
picture, previously loaded, like a splashscreen using opengl renderer,
but I'd like to avoid it.
Thanks!

Currently, I tried to register to CONFIGURATION_CHANGED action like
the code below, but the Android didn't allow me to do that by saying
IntentReceiver components are not allowed to register to receive
intents.
The reason that I register to CONFIGURATION_CHANGED is that, the
Android spec said about ACTION_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED: You can not
receive this through components declared in manifests, only by
explicitly registering for it with Context.registerReceiver().
Can someone help me? Thanks.

Why don't you simply compile your app against API 4? (It's a setting in the project properties). If you use any methods or classes that don't exist yet, you will get compile errors.

[android-developers] Killing Activity / onPause() / isFinishing()
Is isFinishing() guaranteed to return true in onPause() when an activity is being killed by the system ? If not, how is it possible to differentiate activity-being-killed and one of the other reasons for onPause() being called ? It must apparently be done in onPause(), since that's the only one guaranteed to be called by the system according to the lifecycle doc.

[android-developers] Re: Gallery elasticity at the ends
I added 2 dummy views at the ends of the Gallery then wrote a
onItemSelectedListener that essentially listens for items 0 and the
last item (the dummy views) and sets the selection to 1 and the last
item -1 respectively. This creates the bounce me having to do any
animations! I created a full screen gallery view and each item in the
adapter takes up the entire screen (just like a home screen with
various full screen panels). I also modified the onFling so the
gallery only moves one screen at a time (much like an Android or
iPhone home screen).

I'm hoping I can pass the byte[] as an extra to the ACTION_VIEW intent, but can't find any docs on it so far. Alternatively I'll have to roll my own viewer or first write the image out to a file and pass that to the intent.

[android-developers] Re: Blocking current Activity/Screen till current task is complete
Show an AlertDialog box that can not be cancelled (by pressing the back button). Dismiss this dialog when your task has completed. The AlertDialog, if it can not be cancelled, will prevent the back- button from going back to the previous activity. Be absolutely sure that the task finishes properly and the AlertDialog is being dismissed in reasonable amount of time. If not, your users are going to be pissed off for waiting a long time. Also, the user can still exit your app by pressing the Home key.

[android-developers] Re: OpenCore / Possible Issue w/ Streaming MP3 over HTTP?
Hi Ravi, Regarding the missing Content-Length header, this was on different streams. The test case you have has the Content-Length header (which is one reason I provided that test case specifically, to simplify the issue). Believe it or not, I'm having success with 128kbps MP3's to the device over 3G. Same goes with 192kbps and 256kbps. At 320kbps the problem becomes apparent again. What I find most strange about this is that the test case I sent you was at 192kbps but I'm still having problems with that particular track. The tracks I'm tsting with today are being transcoded on the fly by FFmpeg, so bitrate aside the encoder may be the notable difference there. Your thoughts? On May 12, 10:01 pm, rktb yend...@pv.com wrote: Hi, I was actually able to see the content length in the http response. Here is a snippet from my log: PVLOG:TID(0xe9bf8):Time=830:HttpParsingBasicObject::parseResponse() file size = 5346201 But, yes, the auto-pause/auto-resume does indeed depend on whether or not the content length is present in the header.

[android-developers] How to scan Access Points and select strongest signal?
I am currently trying to write a class in Android that will Scan for
access points, calculate which access point has the best signal and
then connect to that access point.
So the application will be able to scan on the move and attach to new
access points on the go.
I have the scanning and calculation of the best signal working.
But when it comes to attaching to the best access point I am having
trouble.
It appears that enableNetwork(netid, othersTrueFalse) is the only
method for attaching to an Access point but this causes problems as
from my Scan Results I am not able to get the id of the access point
with the strongest signal.
This is my code:
---
public void doWifiScan(){
scanTask = new TimerTask() {
public void run() {
handler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
sResults = wifiManager.scan(getBaseContext());
if(sResults!=null)
Log.d(TIMER, sResults count + sResults.size());
ScanResult scan =
wifiManager.calculateBestAP(sResults);
wifiManager.addNewAccessPoint(scan);
}
});
}};
t.schedule(scanTask, 3000, 3);
}
---
public ScanResult calculateBestAP(ListScanResult sResults){
ScanResult bestSignal = null;
for (ScanResult result : sResults) {
if (bestSignal == null
|| WifiManager.compareSignalLevel(bestSignal.level,
result.level) 0)
bestSignal = result;
}
String message = String.format(%s networks found. %s is the
strongest. %s is the bsid,
sResults.size(), bestSignal.SSID, bestSignal.BSSID);
Log.d(sResult, message);
return bestSignal;
}
---
public void addNewAccessPoint(ScanResult scanResult){
WifiConfiguration wc = new WifiConfiguration();
wc.SSID = '\' + scanResult.SSID + '\';
//wc.preSharedKey = \password\;
wc.hiddenSSID = true;
wc.status = WifiConfiguration.Status.ENABLED;
wc.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.TKIP);
wc.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.CCMP);
wc.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.WPA_PSK);
wc.allowedPairwiseCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.PairwiseCipher.TKIP);
wc.allowedPairwiseCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.PairwiseCipher.CCMP);
wc.allowedProtocols.set(WifiConfiguration.Protocol.RSN);
int res = mainWifi.addNetwork(wc);
Log.d(WifiPreference, add Network returned + res );
boolean b = mainWifi.enableNetwork(res, false);
Log.d(WifiPreference, enableNetwork returned + b );
}
---
When I try to use addNewAccessPoint(ScanResult scanResult) it just
adds another AP to the list in the settings application with the same
name as the one with the best signal, so I end up with loads of
duplicates and not actually attaching to them.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a better solution?

I've seen source codes that check for the OS version and do not setFLAG_BLUR_BEHINDif something = Eclair is detected, which sounds hacky.

[android-developers] Re: Ensure GPS has fix before proceeding..
Best is debatable - but you could use an AsyncTask that does whatever it is you need your GPS fix for and include getting a fix as one of it's steps, during which time you show an indeterminate progress dialog that says Getting your current location ... please wait... or something. That's what I do when the last known location will not suffice. Works well enough. What I did is to setup a locationlistener, and assume that the gps gets the fix only after the first update (when the onLocationChanged is fired the first time). You can also listen to the other callbacks like onStatusChanged in order to decide if the gps is down again.

Re: [android-developers] How to scan Access Points and select strongest signal?
Hi,
1. Regarding duplicates. Android maintains a list of known networks - for
each, it stores the SSID, encryption configuration, along with the password,
if necessary. Each known network also has a unique numeric ID.
You can only connect to networks on this known list, because, as you
correctly figured out, connecting to a network is done by its id.
However, it's not necessary to add the network to this list if it's already
been added (by Android or by your application).
You can get the list of known networks from the WifiManager:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiManager.html#getConfiguredNetworks
()
You can match these networks to your live scan results using their SSIDs. If
the network is already in the known list, just use its numeric id. If not,
you get the numeric ID back from addNetwork().
2. Once you have the numeric ID, call enableNetwork(networkId, true) to
connect. The second parameter means disconnect from others, not forget
all other network as its name might seem to imply.

[android-developers] Re: APKTool - decoding our apps
Ryszard You should rethink, whether there is really any sense in stealing something from your app. Ideas, design and appearance could be stolen by just looking at it. Algorithms? It is really hard to analyze simple loop in smali code - it's asm, you know. If you really want to not let other people even look at your work, you should consider moving to iPhones. With this tool, you could take an existing app that took perhaps months to develop and in a day or two, change all the logos and cosmetics, and resell it as your own work. I don't say that you personally would do that, but it's certainly possible. What you are stealing is the time it took to write all those layouts and handlers and providers and so on. Let's say then, that someone comes out with a really nice way to handle some ui issues. It's very likely that they spent quite a bit of time evolving those ideas, trying things and throwing away a lot of things that didn't work. Sure, these ideas, this design, can be imitated, but writing the app that imitates them takes a lot of work. Unless someone uses your tool. In essence, your tool allows someone to pretend that they did work that was in fact done by someone else. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Why is the android jar stubbed?
Hi! I am trying to figure out a way to run unit tests with some android provided classes (e.g. org.json). I would like to be able to run these outside the emulator for performance reasons. The only way I can think of at this stage is to have a separate module that uses org.json (not the android one) that runs all the tests and so that I then include in my android project. The problem is that if I try to use the android jar (including the provided) in my tests all methods will throw exceptions (well know fact..) Now I am just trying to understand why this is the case. My hunch is that the android.jar implementation classes are pretty tightly coupled to the underlying archticture and libraries (e.g. via jni to opencore, opengl and so on and son) and it would be a pretty difficult task to unbundle this all and make it run on the jvm rather then the android stack with the dalvik vm. Can somebody confirm it I am right or totally wrong? Is there a chance that at least some stuff can be tested outside if I create a android jar that contains the actual implementations by building android open source or is this all going to end in a huge misery for myself? manfred -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

mike, i just saw this open defect with sipdroid/pbxes: http://code.google.com/p/sipdroid/issues/detail?id=158q=batterysort=-priority i wonder if this defect comes from a belief in TCP between sipdroid/ pbxes and a thought that TCP connections can persist longer with less overhead (thus use less battery power) than UDP.

Mike, you knew it :) what is your mobile service provider? the sentence IP address changes are probably pretty rare looks strange to a T-Moble user like me. at least i find my G1 ip frequently changes :( So I haven't actually tested this, and I disclaimed because I wasn't sure :) If you're getting lots of IP address changes regardless of what's happening at the 3gpp/l2 layer, you're probably not going to not have a very good experience with streaming media of any kind because once the IP address changes, the RTP stream is going to tank regardless of SIP, RTSP, Skype, etc. That's why you'd need to deal with it more directly like using IP handoffs using Mobile IP, etc. Handoffs could be done using SIP, but it would be ugly. Which probably means that somebody has proposed it and that the working group has taken it on :) AFAIK, mobile IP is still not deployed widely, even though we were working on it the handoff probelm almost 10 years ago... Part of the reason probably is because 3GPP's latency is really awful for real time conversations so there's still too high an energy barrier to actually deal with the truly difficult problem of dealing with handoffs when TDM still works just fine. Maybe 4G will get rid of all that bizarre leftovers from the ATM/bellhead days that 3G had to live with to get standardized. In any case as far as SIP registration goes, it should be relatively easy to camp on an event for when the IP address changes and quickly reregister inside the SIP stack. It wouldn't be surprising that most of the SIP stacks already have that feature. How bad this is on battery life is obviously dependent on how often IP addresses are actually changing, but you have the exact same problem with IM so at some level it's acceptable since people do use IM...

Again, if this is just server-client streaming this is yet another reason to avoid SIP and look at RTSP. SIP is a rendezvous protocol, and all rendezvous protocols are complicated, with lots of things to consider. AFAIK -- it's been a long time -- SIP registrations can be very long lasting. Unless something has actually changed -- like your IP address moved -- it shouldn't be a problem. I'm not entirely convinced that this is a huge issue anyway because the cellular guys are probably moving you around at L2 for the most part (again, it's been a long time since I've paid attention to the 3gpp guys), so IP address changes are probably pretty rare. I have no idea if anybody's been deploying mobile IP which would more directly solve this issue.

Remember that SIP doesn't actually transport the media, that's RTP which is over UDP. So losing the connection shouldn't generally be any worse than losing a http connection generally. As far as scalability, I woudn't worry about that too much. UDP based SIP suffers from a lot of problems, not the least of which is the lack of security (unless you manage to find DTLS or are running it over IPsec). And of course NAT's are tricky as I mentioned before. But I still haven't heard why RTSP wouldn't be a better choice if this is just server-client streaming. SIP

Your question doesn't really make sense. An API is not something that would wait. You should add a little more detail as to what you're really trying to do here. Obviously you're not required to use a progress dialog - you could have a static message you show at first and update after the response, or something. But in this case the user can back out at any time (which is good), in which case you would want to cancel your ongoing task. I guess you COULD handle the back key press and prevent this, like the dialog scenario, but again, my previous comments apply. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] OpenGL drops triangles
After a long battle I have some results that may help others. Got the game to rendering the emulator correctly by building the geometry using ByteBuffer instead of IntBuffer and ShortBuffer. I tried converting to the GLSurfaceView and still no luck with the dropped triangles. I ended up unpacking the indexed arrays into straight triangles at load time and it works. So now I am using glDrawArryas instead of glDrawElements. I am pretty sure this is a driver bug as it's all static geometry and I removed pretty much every bit of rendering but the static mesh and the triangles drop based on view point.

It seems webkit on android does not check the manifest after the initial caching. - forcing an update with applicationCache.update() also does not work.

[android-developers] Re: APKTool - decoding our apps
Yeah, I understand. What I wanted to say is Android wasn't designed to be secure. Most of things that apktool gives you are doable without it and within a reasonable time. Logos, you say? Just unzip apk file, replace some images, pack it, resign and that's it. Strings are harder, but as long as your replacement won't be longer then current value, it is simple find replace in resources.arsc file. Colors and other things in layouts are also very easy to modify directly in binary form. Voila, we've just built our own application in about 1 hour. Of course I won't say apktool does nothing ;-) It could simplify stealing, you gave good example of that in your comment. I just think no one should trust security by obscurity approach. Something is secure or it isn't. And if isn't then people shouldn't blame for this situation someone, who just see it and use it. Currently your applications could be modified without much effort and without any specialized tools, so if you are really worried about security, you should write to AOSP, don't you think? :-) And personally speaking, I could recommend you using code obfuscators. They really, really do their job - you can trust me ;-) (yeah, I'm working on some obfuscated code, but if you're curious, then no: I'm not cracking, removing some protection, stealing any ideas, code or resources, modifying credits nor reselling someone's app or any part of it) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Your question doesn't really make sense. An API is not something that would wait. You should add a little more detail as to what you're really trying to do here. Obviously you're not required to use a progress dialog - you could have a static message you show at first and update after the response, or something. But in this case the user can back out at any time (which is good), in which case you would want to cancel your ongoing task. I guess you COULD handle the back key press and prevent this, like the dialog scenario, but again, my previous comments apply. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered deviceshttp://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Animating Views with custom layout
Hello,
I am trying to animate a few images as part of my activity
such that the images overlap partially with each other. To be able to
do the same, since there is no such layout which provides this
facility, I have created my own layout extending from ViewGroup and
overriding the onMeasure and onLayout methods, wherein I compute and
place my images encapsulated inside ImageView. To animate these images
so that the image on the front goes behind and newer one comes up, on
some event say a touch event, I have created my own animation class
extending from Animation class. Having put some basic animation in
place, I see that the animation happens correctly but at the end of
the animation requesting the relayout of the images, the image
location is not what I had set initially. With respect to the
situation above I have couple of related questions. I hope it is ok to
ask them all in a single thread.
Q1. What is the relation between the animation and the layout of views
because of which, after the animation, the location of views is not
same as before the animation?
Q2. In the scenario above, my objective is to only change the
placement of the views with animation displayed in between. Is there
any other / better way of achieving the same effect and how?
Q3. In my Animation class extended from
android.view.animation.Animation, in the applyTransformation function,
if I don't call camera.getMatrix, the animation doesn't seem to have
any visible effect. I am not sure why should getMatrix affect the
animation. The function looks something like this:
protected void applyTransformation(float interpolatedTime,
Transformation t)
{
mCamera.save();
mCamera.translate(0.0f, 0.0f, 310* interpolatedTime);
mCamera.getMatrix(matrix);
mCamera.restore();
}
Any help, suggestion and pointers is appreciated,
Regards,
DivKis

Re: [android-developers] Re: APKTool - decoding our apps
I understand why developers like Jay G. are upset but ultimately this problem lies with Google, not authors of decompilers. If the app is not encrypted on the device, hacking is dead simple. Keep in mind, DRM is patented encumbered so getting one on the device could easily drive up the cost of a handset by several dollars, which is a lot when there are millions of Android devices out there. There are many factors involved in these decisions but ultimately the cost of not implementing DRM has to be higher than the cost of doing so. Google and the handset manufacturers are not the one's that will feel the cost of this so it has to be the operators that eventually force the issue (they lose 30% of every pirated app). When getting feedback from developers for ZappMarket, piracy was always in the top three concerns they had. That is why some wanted to leave Android Market altogether. But nothing will work without Google and the handset manufacturers taking action. Solutions like SlideLock and AndAppStore licensing are susceptible to decompilers. Developers should keep in mind however, that the developing world only accounts for 4-5% of sales of applications from app markets. For example, even a 100% piracy rate in these regions would only be affecting 5% your potential sales, meaning that even if there were a proper DRM system in place, you are likely not going to see more than 5% uptick in actual sales from high piracy regions.

[android-developers] Re: APKTool - decoding our apps
I think a better analogy would be an anti-aircraft missile, you don't go deer hunting with a Stinger or SA-8, you use it to shoot down aircraft. Since this tool really has only one real purpose, to allow people to pirate code, I think the gun analogy is a bit off. On the other hand, if this person didn't provide such a tool, someone else would. It's obviously not a huge technical feat. Shane's point, that the pirated apps mostly are used in countries where the app can't be purchased are probably close to right on. In the US, I'm guessing that more than 95% of the users wouldn't know how to get a pirated app or would be afraid (and rightfully so) that some sort of malware or virus would be hitch hiking on that free app they just downloaded. -John Coryat On May 13, 1:21 pm, Greg Donald gdon...@gmail.com wrote: On Thu, May 13, 2010 at 12:17 PM, Jay Gischer j...@gischer.net wrote: With this tool, you could take an existing app that took perhaps months to develop and in a day or two, change all the logos and cosmetics, and resell it as your own work.

[android-developers] Re: To copy protect or not to copy protect!? That is the question!
Just make up your mind before hand. I would recommend NOT using copy protection, but don't decide to after the fact, as you will cause your installed user base all kinds of pain when their phones go berserk after you switch it on. It's not pretty. I ultimately decided to go a different route, and simply validate that my app was purchased (from within the app) using what we call Automatic Application Licensing. It's been working pretty well since we implemented. We've seen an increase in our sales and a decrease in the disparity between pirated and purchased installs. Not to mention, pirates are now potential patrons. If you want more info, see www.keyeslabs.com. I'm hoping along with everyone else that G is going to announce upgrades to the market sometime soon that will make these issues go away. I'll be watching on Monday!

Thanks Mark. I could use some advice on the best approach to this problem The image that I am trying to display is very large and I want to preserve its detail. So I am including it in the apk in the assets/ directory. My app almost exclusively uses WebView to display content. I am trying to figure out the best way to show this large image from one of the html pages loaded by my WebView. 1. Should I load it with my WebView? I thought I could use img tags with urls like file:///android_asset/myimage.png. But this does not seem to work. 2. Can I start a new Activity with an Intent that shows the image in the default image viewer? This might be nice if it allows zooming and scrolling. In this case, what is the URI I should use to an image in my assets directory? 3. I can write my own Activity to load the image from my assets directory. Does ImageView support zooming and scrolling? Any advice on which of these approaches makes the most sense? Or is there another approach that I am overlooking all together? thanks, Jeff On May 12, 8:45 am, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: Jeff wrote: Hello all, I apologize if this is beating a dead horse, but I have been through the documentation and groups discussions over and over, and can't seem to resolve this issue What I want to do: - I am loading a remote web page into WebView using loadUrl() - example: webView.loadUrl(http://myserver.com/page.html;); - That page has a very large image in it whose quality I do not want degraded by the OS.

Is keyeslabs free? I read but didn't create an account yet... Thanks! Jona On May 13, 3:44 pm, dadical keyes...@gmail.com wrote: Just make up your mind before hand. I would recommend NOT using copy protection, but don't decide to after the fact, as you will cause your installed user base all kinds of pain when their phones go berserk after you switch it on. It's not pretty. I ultimately decided to go a different route, and simply validate that my app was purchased (from within the app) using what we call Automatic Application Licensing. It's been working pretty well since we implemented. We've seen an increase in our sales and a decrease in the disparity between pirated and purchased installs. Not to mention, pirates are now potential patrons. If you want more info, seewww.keyeslabs.com. I'm hoping along with everyone else that G is going to announce upgrades to the market sometime soon that will make these issues go away. I'll be watching on Monday!

Sure. Just as you won't use your mocks in production, you won't use your copies of the third-party JARs in production. It boils down to how compatible are the packaged copies of source with upstream in a way.. The easiest thing, for third-party code, is just to grab the code itself out of source.android.com and use it. That won't work very well at all for real Android code, but for third-party libraries I would expect it to work reasonably well.

[android-developers] Re: APKTool - decoding our apps
You have an interesting analogy, though just because *you* say that the proper use for this tool is pirating code - doesn't mean it is. A missle is designed to travel, hit a target and deliver a payload. Of course you could use it as a hammer, but that's not it's purpose. Reengineering can be a practical solution. Using this to reengineering an application is the use. Yes you could also use this to pirate byte code, but that's not it's purpose. Heck, while you're at it can we start ranting about dedexer, http://dedexer.sourceforge.net/, smali/baksmali, http://code.google.com/p/smali/, and dexdump? These tools aren't new, in fact dexdump has been around since before all the devices where out and is distributed with the android source code. Yikes...

[android-developers] Icon issue - building with 2.1 sdk for 1.5 target
Hi all, I am developing with the 2.1 sdk, I draw 3 kinds of icons for ldpi, mdpi, hdpi, at some point I tried to install my application on my HTC Hero. Something must not be working as expected, because the menu and launcher icons are sort of blurred. If I understood correctly, this is because 1.5 doesn't know what to do with all the mdpi stuff, it just looks for some icons and it takes the first occourrence it founds. Now the question is, whenever I will release my app, do I need to specify a minimum version required higher than 1.5? Just for this icon issue? I expect there is a smarter way to avoid this issue and to release an application that is compatible with previous version of android.

Since this tool really has only one real purpose, to allow people to pirate code, I think the gun analogy is a bit off. If your assumption is: piracy = evil, without any exception, then yes, you are right. But I don't agree with this. Piracy is a general term describing all activities that are against the license. I'm quite sure, that when you are backuping all of your installed apps to save you some data transfer, you are pirating some of them. But you don't feel like a bad guy then, do you? Modded HTC_IME is 100 times better than original - second one definitely lacks some features. Installing modded version is pirating, but is it really so evil? It won't take money away of HTC, will even make their app more popular - without these additional features I would probably go for BetterKeyboard. I'm interested in what people use my tool for, I google sometimes for it - that is how I found this thread. Also people ask about usage help, they report issues, request features, etc., so I have much feedback. I must say I have never found single one person using it for evil purposes. And by evil I mean: removing protection, stealing some code or resources, replacing original authors, reselling an app, etc. It was always about adding some lacking features, localizing, theming, etc. I ain't saying it was never used for evil, can't say it will never be. I'm saying that its main purpose isn't doing bad things.

Re: [android-developers] Icon issue - building with 2.1 sdk for 1.5 target
HTC Hero will try to use resources from drawable-ldpi and scale them, which is not what you want. To make it work correctly, use just drawable for 320*480 resources, and drawable-ldpi-v4 and drawable-hdpi-v4 for the other ones. To make it complete, set min-sdk to 3 and target-sdk to whatever you are using. 14 мая, 2010 1:45 AM пользователь Federico Paolinelli fedep...@gmail.com написал: Hi all, I am developing with the 2.1 sdk, I draw 3 kinds of icons for ldpi, mdpi, hdpi, at some point I tried to install my application on my HTC Hero.

[android-developers] How to get activity to restart every time the app is launched from the command line
Device: Nexus One
Firmware: 2.1 update 1
Platform 2.1, API: 7
I have seen it mentioned before that there's a difference between
installing an app via Eclipse and via adb, but I need more
clarification.
I have an app that starts a voice recognition activity in the main
activity's onStart() method.. I'm planning to run this app from a
Nexus One connected to a laptop via USB. I want this app to launch
perhaps 100 times, each time restarting the voice recognition
activity.
When I install the app onto the Nexus One via Eclipse, I notice this
behavior:
- when the app is launched from the command line via adb shell am
start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.voice/com.voice.VoiceSearch
$1, the app runs with the voice recognition activity restarting each
time. This is the behavior I want.
- I also notice that after the app has run, I hit Home, then click on
the app from the screen, the app will be in its last state, and the
voice recognition activity will not restart. I specified
finishOnTaskLaunch=true in the manifest, so I thought the voice
recognition activity would restart.
When I package an app as per instructions and install it onto the
device via adb install, I get this behavior:
- when the app is launched from the command line, the voice
recognition app will run the first time, but subsequent launches do
not restart the voice recognition activity. The voice recognition
activity just stays in its last state. I get the following message:
Warning: Activity not started, its current task has been brought to
the front
- I also notice that after the app has run, I hit Home, then click on
the app from the screen, the app will restart the voice recognition
activity. By the way, this happens whether or not I have
finishOnTaskLaunch=true set in the manifest or not.
What do I need to do so that I can launch the app from the command
line via adb lots of times with the voice recognition activity
restarting each time?
I call this from the main activity's onStart():
private void startVoiceRecognitionActivity() {
Intent intent= new
Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT, Say something!);
startActivityForResult(intent, VOICE_RECOGNITION_REQUEST_CODE);
waitForResults();
}
Manifest:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=com.audience.android.voice
android:versionCode=1
android:versionName=1.0
application android:icon=@drawable/icon android:label=@string/
app_name
activity android:name=.VoiceSearch
android:finishOnTaskLaunch=true
android:clearTaskOnLaunch=true

[android-developers] Debugging Android Test Cases (-e debug true)
Hi guys, did anyone actually succeed in debugging AndroidTestCases? I have a test-suite I can successfully run either from the Eclipse or from the command. But as I add the debug flags like this: adb shell am instrument -w -e debug true org.anddev.andengine.test/ android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner ... the test blocks (as expected) but I cannot connect the debugger from Eclipse =/ In the DDMS Devices view I can see a new App being started (I can get the threads, heap and stuff!) which displays like this: ? . 17518 8601/8700 When i click the tiny green bug in the devices view where one usually attaches the debugger to a running app, just nothing happens. So I can't really figure out what I am doing wrong here =( (Can test be debugged right from inside of eclipse, without the commandline?)
