[android-developers] Re: on sdcard, File.canRead() = true, File.canWrite() = false
Ah, yes, of course. That critical fact slipped my mind -- thanks Dianne! This is, of course, a major reason why ability to write to the SD card is controlled by an application permission. Even without the limitations of FAT, file ownership is a tenuous concept with removable media. I have scripts to set up EC2 instances, and I have to force user UIDs in each created, so that the filesystems I mount on those instances can be consistent. And that's using the ext3 filesystem. On Aug 9, 3:25 pm, Dianne Hackborn hack...@android.com wrote: You can't change the permissions on stuff in external storage. That uses a FAT filesystem, which doesn't have permissions, so all files there simply immutably use the permissions of the mount point. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Confused about Timezones and Sqlite3
Hi, Conversion is a Java question, not related to Android though. Anyways, here is a catch --- in Java, the date is ALWAYS stored as UTC in Date object. You CANNOT convert its timezone (stored value will be always in UTC). However, you can print it in different timezones, that is here formatters come in. EXAMPLE: // String dateStr = 8-8-2010 11:00 AM EST; SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(dd-MM- hh:mm a zzz); try { Date d = formatter.parse(dateStr); System.out.println(d.toGMTString()); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } //== Now, System.out.println(d.toGMTString()); --- this will output: 8 Aug 2010 16:00:00 GMT Which is correct (as I came to know that EST is GMT-5) If you want to do some more on date and time in Java, then you better ask in Java language related groups. Regards Sarwar Erfan On Aug 10, 10:25 am, Bara bara.kath...@gmail.com wrote: Ahh, that makes a lot more sense. Now, when you say always use UTC (which makes more sense to me), how exactly would I convert a time to a different timezone?

[android-developers] Developing a project on both Android Windows
Hi everyone, I've got an interesting request that's hard to find information on Google for. I'm developing an application across both Android and windows which (mostly) shares the same classes. I was looking for a really easy way to duplicate some of the special Android classes on windows. For example for the Log class, I wrote a MyLog class which performs exactly the same but the actual class does different things (for example on windows it just formats a string and writes it out to System.out). I was wondering if anybody had any classes which performed similar functions to Android in windows. For example, I'd love to have a drop in replacement for the Broadcast system in Android that I could use in windows to get very similar functionality. Just wondering if anybody had any small classes they could share or any links to something which duplicates even a small part of what Android does.

Re: [android-developers] Re: AppWidget multiple sizes
Yes, that is correct. A config utility can be used to pick the type of content, although it's optional. Different widget sizes require separate widget declarations, each with its own size. For the OP's project, it seems like different sizes are tired to different content types. So I meant the same thing, but didn't word it quite well. Thanks for clarifying. -- Kostya 10.08.2010 11:39, YuviDroid пишет: Actually, if I'm not wrong, you need to create separate providers just for the different sizes (4x1, 3x1, 4x2, etc.), but the content displayed is up to the developer.

[android-developers] Controlling an app's cache size
Hey. My app has a WebView which displays Google maps. I'm trying to limit the cache size to a reasonable one - like 2MB. After checking with settings-applications-manage applications I found out that regular page load gets the cache to 900kb. And dispite my efforts, I can't limit the cache size or monitor when the cache limit is being reached. If I'm playing with the map on the webview, the app can even reach 10MB and no ache max size reached message is received. I used the following code: _webView.getSettings().setAppCacheMaxSize(210); //2MB _webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){ @Override public void onReachedMaxAppCacheSize (long spaceNeeded, long totalUsedQuota, android.webkit.WebStorage.QuotaUpdater quotaUpdater){ Log.i(getClass().getName(), App cache max size reached); } }); and a breakpoint inside onReachedMaxAppCacheSize.

[android-developers] Re: WifiInfo. getLinkSpeed : uplink or downlink?
That's because wifi is symmetric. Same speed in both directions. It's likely in many cases that there's an asymmetric link in the route -- certainly HIGHLY likely that there will be something slower. Wifi is unlikely to be your slowest link, so I really don't see any value in checking this. Even if you know you'll be talking to a server on the local network, wifi is fast enough that even the slowest versions aren't likely to make a big difference for anything but bulk data transfer, or situations requiring low latency.

If you need the user to import credentials for use by your application, you can look at providing that import facility in your application and storing the credentials yourself. If you do this, you might want to protect the stored credentials - for example, by encrypting them with a key derived from a user-entered password.

[android-developers] Re: Failure loading drawables on Cupcake/1.5 when building with Froyo/2.2 SDK
I found this warning occurred when I tried to load a resource that wasn't available for the current configuration. In other words, a resource which exists in some subdir of /res, but not one which is applicable to the runtime environment. In my case, it was a locale-specific string resource which didn't have a default value, only a localized value which didn't apply to the current runtime locale. For the OP, I could imagine it was because he didn't have a default drawable; he only had -hdpi and -mdpi versions, neither of which Cupcake knows about.

Re: [android-developers] Opening a context menu in the onCreate of an activity
Why not use an activity? That's the path I started going down last night. I think that makes more sense to me as it will give me more flexibility on the implementation. My initial thought, however, was to use a context menu. I don't think a dialog would work in this case just because I need to display a list of items for the user to select from, unless the dialog can be extended to do that. Interestingly enough, on a specific case in my initial activity, I'll need to display some form of list selection and then turn around and display an input dialog for text. Those two values will be stored off to the database to then be used on any following requests to the activity.

[android-developers] Sharing data between (tab) activities
Hi, I did some digging, but couldn't find a clear answer. I have an application with TabActivity as the main activity. I have some computing and network communication that needs to be done when user clicks on the big red jolly DO IT button. One tab hosts the form with DO IT button, while the other tabs display the results from computing (each tab displays different part of results). The computing is done as AsyncTask as it's supposed to be (afaik). Now the question is, what is the best way to share the results between the tabbed activities? It can be done with ContentProvider + database from what I have read, although that seems like a bit too much for my needs. I have also considered an option to save the results to some cache file activities could read in onCreate, onResume etc and display the data. Are there any other convenient ways to share the data? (To make it more clear, the data aren't simple, so doing it through preferences etc is impossible.) Thanks for your advices and thoughts about this matter.

[android-developers] Activity not showing unless GL onSurfaceCreated() is not completed?
Hi, We got an app which utilises OpenGL to do some drawings and due to noticeable setup time needed to set GL up we rearranged app startup logic. Currently we set all up in main activity onCreate(), including creating new GLRenderer object. Main activity now shows splash screen and waits for GLRenderer to finish, which is signalled by posting Runnable to the Handler which unleash main app action and controls. This scenario works fine in simulator, and according to logs once onCreate() is finished GL task is created and onSurfaceCreated() is correctly called. But on real device (i.e. Milestone) it does work a bit differently and it seems that main activity is delayed unless GL is ready.

The phone in question must be have a phone software version mentioned on the white list. (Or really its fingerprint) So that part is up to the phone manufactorer do. My main interest is to make sure that we have done that on your Sony Ericsson X10 mini pro. So I'd really appriciate if you could start the service menu and send back the Phone software information, customisation version, File system version and S1 Boot version. How do you the access the service menu of an X10 mini - pro? You have the phone locked, but the screen must be enlighted. Hit following keys: Home-Back-Back-Home-Back-Home-Home-Back (You can also start it from ADB using: adb shell am start –a com.sonyericsson.android.servicemenu.action.START_SERVICE_MENU ) Then we have previously seen android market having some hickups once and a while - but that is another story.

Re: [android-developers] How to set data in google maps and further access that data
Thanks for your reply. Yeah, you are right. I am not grasping the basics and I don't know why. Would it take long to go learn a little java before going back to android? What are some good books for beginners? Thanks.

Hi, No, you should be able to access /proc/meminfo even from userland just fine. It would be the best way to do it.

[android-developers] Re: how to get the screen size in inches...
If it's important to know the screen size fairly accurately, it might be wise to have a calibrate screen size setup option in your app -- display a ruler on the screen and let the user do up/down buttons until it matches a physical ruler, eg. Otherwise you're always going to be at the mercy of the manufacturer who may use the same code on two different models with different screen sizes. On Aug 4, 4:12 pm, sdphil phil.pellouch...@gmail.com wrote: I am trying to determine the physical size of a screen in inches. Normally, I could do something like this: DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics( metrics ); Then use metrics.widthPixels and metrics.heightPixels. Now that I know the width and height in pixels, I should be able to calculate size in inches if I know the density. Easy enough, metrics.xdpi and metrics.ydpi. Then screen dimension in inches should be: widthInInches = metrics.widthPixels / metrics.xdpi; heightInInches = metrics.heightPixels / metrics.ydpi; Seems simple enough except that it doesn't work. On a Motorola Droid, the system reports back: xdpi and ydpi as 96 (which cannot be true). And the screen resolution as: 480 x 854. Which results in a width of 5 x 8.9 -- which as I'm holding this in my hand right now, I must say - cannot be correct. Any ideas on how to accurately calculate this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Yet another Droid OpenGL texture problem
Yes, that's what I'm saying is your issue. From your code sample I see that you never held on to the actual texture ID from tmp_tex[] or textures[], so you could have never recalled it correctly to bind to it later for drawing.
