Re: [android-developers] Re: Market alternatives
Google is doing an HTML5 web store, so there isn't much point putting tons of effort into their Android Market place client. An HTML5 web store will have global reach and combine that with paypal support and the alternative markets that are doing nothing more than selling applications (pretty much all of them) will get flushed away overnight. Apple is on shaky ground on it's international sales, but they have some provisions in their dev agreement that allows them to attempt to recover from the developer if they get hit by the IRS. Places like Handango are on the other extreme. They collect the royalties from devs and remit them to the respective countries, even when they may not need to. One alternative Android marketplace manages it because they don't make copies of the applications and thus aren't subject to royalty payments (if you've ever wondered about their token system with out of stock messages). In my opinion, Google is on pretty shaky grounds in the US, with the position that they dev is 100% responsible for managing taxes. It's not that this is an unreasonable position but with Android becoming so big, states in the US may see Google and Android as something they can take a bite out of. Given that Google seems not to like to do support, I don't think they'll go the Handango route. Likely, they will move toward the Apple model, which will be less risky for them when they start allowing more international devs to sell their apps.

The strange thing for me is, why Google -Maps is not part of your platform as vendor extension under app\mydroid\vendor\google\frameworks ? I have no idea whether your approach can work. I think you need to create your own google maps extension dir and put their a Android.mk which will force to install the maps jar under /system/ framework Somethink like this .. LOCAL_MODULE := com.google.android.maps.jar LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := JAVA_LIBRARIES LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT_JAVA_LIBRARIES) LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(LOCAL_MODULE) include $(BUILD_PREBUILT) Take this as a starting point only as this is not complete.

Yes you can use the REST api's in android apps. I have used the REST apis for google local search. You need to use... HttpClient object. For parsing using JSON. Check below how i have did it.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Bitmaps and OutOfMemoryError: Best Practices needed
If this bitmap is used for drawing off-screen, then why are you recreating it every time the orientation changes? Screen size stays the same no matter what the orientation. You might need to use various matrix scaling methods in Canvas so that your drawing code works in either orientation. -- Kostya 08.09.2010 0:59, blahblah...@gmail.com пишет: More info - when I use meminfo the native allocated kb increases from 10MB to 15MB to 20MB after each screen orientation change, even though I am explicitly calling recycle() on the large bitmaps in our onDestroy (and I ran it in the debugger and verified that this code is being called). Also, when I reduce the size of the bitmap to the screen size (instead of twice the width and height of the screen) the native allocated only increases about 2MB each time, so it takes more screen orientation changes before the thing keels over (but it eventually does). So it looks like the bitmap is getting leaked somehow. We have no static members, and one thread is created (which exits after our onDestroy is called, which I have verified) and I've checked all our inner classes to make sure there is nothing getting leaked. So I'm pretty sure it's not our code leaking it (but I could be wrong). And even if it was a leak in our code, the explicit recycle() should have sorted it out.

On the other hand I would like to know if is a good idea create static variables in a BroadCastReceiver because if I do not do it I can not know the duration of each answer call. Thanks for your explanations and help! 2010/9/8 Indicator Veritatis mej1...@yahoo.com I think you have lost sight of the forest for the trees. The main difference is that the Listener is just that -- a Listener. If you don't use the Listener, you have to poll for changes in phone state or create a Receiver. Often, this is a waste of time. The Listener should be preferred, unless your needs are VERY simple, so that you can afford the waste of time implied by polling for state change, or the extra effort (as in your example) of making a whole Receiver. After all: except when it introduces nuisance complexity, fewer application components is better. It is rare that you would want to create a whole Receiver just for tracking phone state. Why bother, when you can use a Listener? Besides: how do you plan to communicate between your Receiver and your Activities? Generally, communicating with a Listener in the same Activity or in the hosting process's thread is easier. You didn't even try this communication in your example.

Every one here will tell you, you don't need it, it's against Android Os policy. Android manage the life and death of your app. But anyway : you should simply call the finish() function of your activity : It will call onpause, onstop, and ondestroy thus terminating gracefull the app. You need to do your own cleanup if you have more than one activity though.

Why not use the existing CallLog? Because I wanted to play with this API and I thougth to do that developing an app like CallLog. On the other hand, the CallLog could be deleted by the user and I want to not allow it in my app. There is also an Intent extra. Which information could I get through that intent?

[android-developers] Re: Fetch recurrent events
Or, if one doesn't reply with a snarky one-liner: For Android 2.1 and earlier you could query content://calendar/ events with the following selection rrule IS NOT NULL For Android 2.2 the authority of the calendar provider was changed, so you query content://com.android.calendar/events instead. You should typically refer to: https://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/providers/CalendarProvider.git;a=summary As you're using an undocumented provider through the standard API:s you need to be aware that the implementation may vary between vendors, versions etc - which may or may not be a royal PITA.

As far as drawing or not drawing characters under fog of war, just examine the tile they are currently standing on to figure out whether or not to draw them. It's actually not that hard to implement in Canvas or OpenGL if you plan ahead a little and tile your world.

Re: [android-developers] App Widget with AlarmManager... full example source?
Hi Mark, thank you for responding. I've looked through the code you provided and I'm still a little unclear. I don't believe I need any of the wakeful intent code, correct? My widget currently has a service with a function called buildUpdate that returns a RemoteViews object. To enable 5 minute updates, I need to: - Add a new BroadcastReceiver class that overrides the onReceive function, calls my buildUpdate function and updates my app widget. - Add code to the onStart function of my service that creates the AlarmManager intent and starts it up. Is this even close? By the way, I have your book Beginning Android 2 and another book on Android development and neither one has much coverage of App Widgets, if any at all. Resources on the net are also very sparse regarding App Widgets. For me, obviously, this is the area where I felt I needed to write my own application, so I'm curious about the apparent lack of information available. The few tutorials available all basically say The 1.6 update broke this. Sorry. Here we are at the start of 2.2 and there's nothing?

Here is a sample project that uses AlarmManager: http://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/tree/master/SystemServices/Alarm/ To update the app widget from outside your AppWidgetProvider, just call AppWidgetManager.getInstance(), and everything else is pretty much the same (create RemoteViews, etc.). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] App Widget with AlarmManager... full example source?
On Wed, Sep 8, 2010 at 9:52 AM, Rich Allen ricow...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Mark, thank you for responding. I've looked through the code you provided and I'm still a little unclear. I don't believe I need any of the wakeful intent code, correct? Probably not, in your case, since you said you didn't want the alarm to go off while the device was asleep. My widget currently has a service with a function called buildUpdate that returns a RemoteViews object. To enable 5 minute updates, I need to: - Add a new BroadcastReceiver class that overrides the onReceive function, calls my buildUpdate function and updates my app widget. - Add code to the onStart function of my service that creates the AlarmManager intent and starts it up. Is this even close? Well, it's in the ballpark, at least. Depending on how long buildUpdate() takes, you may wish to consider delegating that work to an IntentService -- onReceive() is called with foreground priority on the main application thread, so you really want it to be snappy. Whether onStart() is the right place/time to set up your AlarmManager is difficult for me to say, since I don't know your app. By the way, I have your book Beginning Android 2 and another book on Android development and neither one has much coverage of App Widgets, if any at all. Resources on the net are also very sparse regarding App Widgets. For me, obviously, this is the area where I felt I needed to write my own application, so I'm curious about the apparent lack of information available. The few tutorials available all basically say The 1.6 update broke this. Sorry. Here we are at the start of 2.2 and there's nothing? Or am I missing some valuable resources somewhere? :) I'm not sure what constitutes valuable, but: http://commonsware.com/AdvAndroid/ I would assume some of the other newer/bigger books cover app widgets as well, though I haven't gone looking. But my app widget and AlarmManager coverage is in one of my books, just not the one you have.

[android-developers] Getting source line no after crash
An Eclipse question, I know, but maybe some Android-specific considerations. When I'm in Eclipse and running my app in debug mode, if it halts due to a runtime exception, where can I look to find the java source line number that was executing at the time? I've been able to find the error message, which often leads me to the general area of the faulty code, but it would be nice to get an actual line number (sometimes TMI in the Eclipse windows when I'm looking for the basic facts!). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Fast destroy multiple WebView's
Hi, My problem: I have many WebView's these display images. Each WebView is item in Gallery view. 10-15 images are loading simultaneously. Internet is very low, for loading all visible items is need 5-10 sec. If close Activity and restart it few times, device CPU is hangs long time.

[android-developers] Converting binary JPEG data to Bitmap
My app will have an SQLite database with some embedded JPEG images -- basically the binary contents of a JPEG file stored as a Blob in the database. Can someone point me in the general direction of where to start to figure out how to convert this array of bytes into a Bitmap object that can be further manipulated and displayed in an ImageView?

Re: [android-developers] Getting source line no after crash
Doug, The trick is, once you see in Eclipse that the application crashed, hit run button (the yellow-green triangular arrow). This lets the exception propagate to Android framework, and after that you get the stack trace in logcat. This includes the original cause for the exception. Look for the lines starting with Caused by:. -- Kostya 08.09.2010 18:00, Doug Gordon пишет: An Eclipse question, I know, but maybe some Android-specific considerations.

[android-developers] Re: Killing all the activities that was started by my application.
Yahel is right, it is very dangerous. But you can try doing it with broadcast, and listen it in activities which you want to close. If you did, look at device CPU status. Maybe your devise is down!!! Or another way is saving your own activity stack, and consequentially finish. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: One day sale made my paid app free, now I cannot revert!
I got bitten by this on my app. I changed from paid to free, and couldn't revert. I had to pull the app from the market unfortunately and repackage and re-list. Not very intuitive from the developer console (there should atleast be a warning that the developers get when going from paid to free). Yes, one could point to the legal wording, but c'mon, we are developers and not lawyers and a little warning dialog would really help. Changing the packaging and unlisting the app is really disruptive for both users and developers.
