2010-09-13 Thread tom
Now I found one very curious issue,
If I can access internet (WIFI, 3G), and change date/time 2010 year to
2011 year,
after while, system automaticlly update my date/time 2011 to 2010
year.
In fact I had disable the automatic update date/time function in
setting.

following is my log, GMS had done this, why? how to remove this
function?

Help,
Thanks,
Tom

[android-developers] Re: Monkey usage with Scripts/Network Control not working

Monkey network control working correctly.
Must be careful about scaling co-ordinates while using it.

I hope this post helps others when they have problems.

 This is the format.
 You should be careful to ensure that the co-ordinates are correct.
 What you specify here are raw co-ords i.e before any window
 adjustments etc take place. You must take this into account while
 calculating co-ords.

 I am yet to try the network control - Lets see what happens.

   Hi,

   I am trying to do 2 things with monkey

   1. Execute a script with a command like

   adb shell monkey -p MY_PACKAGE --setup scriptfile -f /sdcard/
   mon_script1.txt 1

   where mon_script.txt contains a few touch commands. After I execute
   this, I see nothing happening on the screen. It even does not give me
   the Number of events injected message.
   I have verified that my touch co-ordinates fall over actual UI
   elements.

   This is the script file I am using

   tap 79 29
   tap 100 100
   tap 200 200
   tap 300 300
   quit

   2. Execute Monkey Network control to type commands individually.
   I start up monkey to listen to a port and use PuTTY to send commands.
   I get OK return messages, but nothing happens on the screen.

   Whenever I use monkey in the random mode, I see interaction on the
   screen.
   But I need to get one of the above 2 methods to work.
   I have seen the sources of monkey and nothing seems to be wrong.
   Has anyone used monkey in the above described way? If so, please tell
   me what I am doing wrong.

   Cheers,
   Earlence

Er...  turn off the automatic update date/time option, if that is what you
want.  Not sure what else you are looking for about how to remove it.

As for why this is done...  generally, as users, we find it nice that our
device knows the time without us doing anything, and since with a network
connection the time is available, well why not?

[android-developers] Question on Intents?

2010-09-13 Thread Arpit
I have the a scenario where number of Activites are invoked:

Activity A -- Activity B -- Browser Activity -- Activity C...

By Browser Activity I mean, Activity B will do the following:

String url = http://example.com;;
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url)));

On Activity C , when user clicks the back button, it always returns to
the Browser Activity. I do not want this to happen...

I understand that each time one Activity calls another, the caller
activity goes onto a stack?? Is it possible to restrict it going onto
the stack, so that when user press back button on Activity C, it goes
to Activity B, skipping the Browser Activity?

Please help!!!

Arpit

Re: [android-developers] Question on Intents?

2010-09-13 Thread Dianne Hackborn
You probably can't avoid this.  The browser is somewhat special in its
implementation, and doesn't even go on your back stack.  (It is singleTask.)

One thing you could try, if activity B and C are your own, if you give them
the same taskAffinity then you could maybe set it up so the launch of C
causes or task with A/B to come to the foreground and place C on top.

Or just not try to stick the browser in the middle of your task like that,
and instead implement your own activity to display a web page with WebView.

 This is using Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) and the Android SDK r06 running a

 2. Can I call this application from my application? If yes then how?

set android:background attribute of some of your buttons to, say,
#foo and you will probably see that there is no padding between
cells

what you now see is button's padding

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL lockups in 2.2

2010-09-13 Thread Robert Green
Jeremy,

It happened to me quite a bit on both 2.1 and 2.2 on every device.
It's surely a defect of Android but so far no one has been able to
track it down.  It's a tough one, very difficult to reproduce
reliably.  It tends to happen more often in certain cases for reasons
unknown to me right now, such as on an EVO running 2.1 on the third
level of Deadly Chambers if you play it straight through.  Since that
takes 20 minutes, it's impossible to figure out by logging because
it's just way too much.  Breakpoints don't work because the game
doesn't run fast enough in debug mode and debugging doesn't work
anyways once the lockup has happened.

It's pretty much a worse case scenario - a very fatal, very
intermittent bug that breaks debugging and is nearly impossible to
isolate.

I hope some genius out there can figure this one out.  I couldn't even
get close.

On Sep 12, 10:34 pm, Jeremy Statz jst...@gmail.com wrote:
 There's been a couple threads about this in the last year or so, but I
 wanted to draw attention to it again, as I've spent most of the last
 couple of days trying to confirm it wasn't anything I'm doing.

 The short story is, I'm pretty sure there's a very serious lock-up-the-
 phone level bug that happens when using OpenGL applications.  When it
 occurs the phone will freeze for at least two minutes before rebooting
 itself, sometimes requiring that the battery be pulled.  This didn't
 seem to happen often on 2.1, but I'm seeing it with a lot more
 regularity on 2.2 (particularly on HTC phones, though that may be a
 coincidence) and am really hoping to draw some attention from someone
 in a position to fix it.  Typically, you'll end up seeing hundreds of
 lines of this in the LogCat log:

 WARN/SharedBufferStack(2005): waitForCondition(LockCondition) timed
 out (identity=9, status=0). CPU may be pegged. trying again.
 WARN/SharedBufferStack(71): waitForCondition(LockCondition) timed out
 (identity=9, status=0). CPU may be pegged. trying again.

 There won't be any callstack or error of any kind preceding this.  In
 this case 2005 is my app (a live wallpaper), and 71 appears to be the
 UI/system process.  I'm assuming this is a race condition within
 SharedBufferStack.  I've seen cases where four or five process IDs
 were all printing the message, all OpenGL apps of some kind.

 Replicating the problem is very, very difficult and seems very
 random... in the last case I had to leave the wallpaper running and
 active on the home screen for about seven hours before it occurred.
 Sometimes I've had it go days, other times it'll happen within a few
 minutes.  My log output demonstrates no unusual activity at all before
 the crash, loading/unloading/visibility/etc doesn't seem to be a
 factor.  It's very rare.

 I kind of feel like this got glossed over the last couple times people
 have reported it here, but based on my reading it's a long-standing
 problem with Android and OpenGL and is having a chilling effect on its

[android-developers] Re: How to reduce padding between cells in TableLayout

2010-09-13 Thread William Ferguson
Thanks. It turns out that a button's default 9 patch background has
large chunks of blank space at the side and bottom.
No wonder changing the button padding wasn't having any effect.

 set android:background attribute of some of your buttons to, say,
 #foo and you will probably see that there is no padding between
 cells

 what you now see is button's padding

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL lockups in 2.2

2010-09-13 Thread Robert Green
I'm sorry - let me clarify something.  When I said, quite a bit, I
mean that it happened to me on both versions at least once on every
device I tested on.  To quantify better, it happened maybe a total of
20 times in about 400 hours of play testing.  It happens more often to
others according to support emails I've received.

On Sep 13, 3:22 am, Robert Green rbgrn@gmail.com wrote:
 Jeremy,

 It happened to me quite a bit on both 2.1 and 2.2 on every device.
 It's surely a defect of Android but so far no one has been able to
 track it down.  It's a tough one, very difficult to reproduce
 reliably.  It tends to happen more often in certain cases for reasons
 unknown to me right now, such as on an EVO running 2.1 on the third
 level of Deadly Chambers if you play it straight through.  Since that
 takes 20 minutes, it's impossible to figure out by logging because
 it's just way too much.  Breakpoints don't work because the game
 doesn't run fast enough in debug mode and debugging doesn't work
 anyways once the lockup has happened.

 It's pretty much a worse case scenario - a very fatal, very
 intermittent bug that breaks debugging and is nearly impossible to
 isolate.

 I hope some genius out there can figure this one out.  I couldn't even
 get close.

 On Sep 12, 10:34 pm, Jeremy Statz jst...@gmail.com wrote:



  There's been a couple threads about this in the last year or so, but I
  wanted to draw attention to it again, as I've spent most of the last
  couple of days trying to confirm it wasn't anything I'm doing.

  The short story is, I'm pretty sure there's a very serious lock-up-the-
  phone level bug that happens when using OpenGL applications.  When it
  occurs the phone will freeze for at least two minutes before rebooting
  itself, sometimes requiring that the battery be pulled.  This didn't
  seem to happen often on 2.1, but I'm seeing it with a lot more
  regularity on 2.2 (particularly on HTC phones, though that may be a
  coincidence) and am really hoping to draw some attention from someone
  in a position to fix it.  Typically, you'll end up seeing hundreds of
  lines of this in the LogCat log:

  WARN/SharedBufferStack(2005): waitForCondition(LockCondition) timed
  out (identity=9, status=0). CPU may be pegged. trying again.
  WARN/SharedBufferStack(71): waitForCondition(LockCondition) timed out
  (identity=9, status=0). CPU may be pegged. trying again.

  There won't be any callstack or error of any kind preceding this.  In
  this case 2005 is my app (a live wallpaper), and 71 appears to be the
  UI/system process.  I'm assuming this is a race condition within
  SharedBufferStack.  I've seen cases where four or five process IDs
  were all printing the message, all OpenGL apps of some kind.

  Replicating the problem is very, very difficult and seems very
  random... in the last case I had to leave the wallpaper running and
  active on the home screen for about seven hours before it occurred.
  Sometimes I've had it go days, other times it'll happen within a few
  minutes.  My log output demonstrates no unusual activity at all before
  the crash, loading/unloading/visibility/etc doesn't seem to be a
  factor.  It's very rare.

  I kind of feel like this got glossed over the last couple times people
  have reported it here, but based on my reading it's a long-standing
  problem with Android and OpenGL and is having a chilling effect on its
  usage.  Is there anyone who can explain if there's anything I can do
  to discourage problems here?  This is beyond my ken honestly, does
  anyone know this part of the system well?

[android-developers] Live Wallpaper WIN DEATH upon restart

2010-09-13 Thread HaMMeReD
I'm getting a WIN DEATH message on shutdown from one of my live
wallpapers. Since this occurs at shutdown the user doesn't really
notice, it does however reset the lwp to the default paper upon the
next restart.

Pertinent log message afaik follows.

I/PackageManager(  120): Removing non-system

As far as I can tell the lwp isn't being destroyed via
Engine.onDestroy() on shutdown, I'm not entirely sure what else I need
to take care of so that the system can destroy it cleanly at shutdown?

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Donal Rafferty
Thanks for that! Excellent code.

But I have a problem!

When I try to do the following:

 private MyService service=null;

 private ServiceConnection svcConn=new ServiceConnection() {
 public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
 IBinder binder) {
 service=(MyService)binder;

 try {
 service.getRingTone();
 }
 catch (Throwable t) {
 Log.e(Patchy, Exception in call to registerAccount(), t);
 //goBlooey(t);
 }
 }

 public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName className) {
 service=null;
 }
 };


bindService(new Intent(this, MyService.class), svcConn,
BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

I get an uncaught exception error on this line:

service=(MyService)binder;

09-13 10:06:53.566: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18791): Uncaught handler: thread

So it doesn't like the cast from binder to Service?

How can I fix that do you know? What am I missing from the example?

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

 Donal,

No, a service is a service, and a binder is a binder.

The binder you get in the callback is the binder returned by the 
service's onBind.


This example:

http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

has a binder implementation that returns a reference to its service, so 
you can do this


public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
 IBinder binder) {

LocalService.LocalBinder binder = (LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
*LocalService service = binder.getService();*
}

This example has one flaw: it leaks a service reference (since 
LocalBinder is a non-static inner class of LocalService). Using a static 
inner or a top-level class for LocalBinder, fixes that (AFAIK).

IBinder myServiceStub = new IMyService.Stub(){

[android-developers] Memory reserved for surfaces

2010-09-13 Thread Luca Carlon
Hi everyone! As far as I can understand, and according to what I've
been told here, on some Android devices, there exists a pool of memory
reserved for Surfaces which is shared by the applications. Is this
correct?
The exception OutOfResourcesException is related to this pool of
memory coming up short.

I'm not able to find much information about this memory, so maybe
someone can give some here or suggest a place with more explainations.
What exactly is stored in this memory? And more important: is it
possible to somehow increase this pool? Maybe it could be done by
changing something in the Android sources? I started from
SurfaceFlinger but I'm still browsing without success. Any idea where
exactly?

Thank you very much for any information you may provide!

[android-developers] Failed to parse the output of 'adb version' ERROR

Hello,

I have the following problem.
I was developing in android using the eclipse and android-sdk-windows
saved in an folder (e.g. C:\android\android-sdk_r07-windows\android-

But after i downloaded and installed  the eclipse and android sdk
again, in the after folder , i got this error message: Failed to
parse the output of 'adb version'  and can't run my application,
because the emutaros that starts is not identified by the eclipse, i
can't find it into Devices tab from eclipse.

Try closing Eclipse, issuing a 'C:\Users\Mohit\Documents\AndroidSDK

If that still doesn't work, you could try opening Activity Monitor to
see if there are any existing adb processes running, and kill them.

I mean in run/cmd there are is no such a command

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Donal Rafferty
I have managed to implement the Task in my Service now but the original
problem still remains.

I dont cancel the Task at all in my service, I simply play the ringtone in
the postExecute method of the Asynctask if a flag is true, if its not I
dont.

But I get the same issue, after a couple of runs the AsyncTask simply stops
getting to the doInBackground method, only the postExecute method is run.

Its very strange and really annoying me now.

Is there any reason why an AsyncTask would behave like this without cancel
being used?

  Donal,

 No, a service is a service, and a binder is a binder.

 The binder you get in the callback is the binder returned by the service's
 onBind.

 This example:


 http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

 has a binder implementation that returns a reference to its service, so
 you can do this

 public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
  IBinder binder) {

 LocalService.LocalBinder binder = (LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
 *LocalService service = binder.getService();*
 }

 This example has one flaw: it leaks a service reference (since LocalBinder
 is a non-static inner class of LocalService). Using a static inner or a
 top-level class for LocalBinder, fixes that (AFAIK).

Hi!

When creating a custom account and/or sync adapter, raw_contacts that
belong to your custom account can be created.

But it looks like that they then cannot be edited with the Contact
app!

Is this a known limitation, or a problem in my code?

Thanks a lot for your help.

 You could fill it with glue...

  Even if the device is physically connected to a host computer via USB

  What are the sources/programmatic way of doing this?

 You would need to modify the firmware.

Would it work to restore an old hierarchyviewer.bat or download one to

I need some information regarding Map application which is installed

Questions are:
1.  Will it be available on all android phones?

 2. Can I call this application from my application? If yes then how?
I dont know how to call another class. I think, I should know the
starting activity's class name. If this is the case, What is the
starting activity class name in case of this map application?

3. What will happen to my application, if someone uninstall Map
application, in case I use this map application?(I am not sure but I
think user can uninstall native application.)

 Donal,

Search the list: there was a post within the last month (I think) from 
Romain Guy about some kind of thread race issue in AsyncTask having been 
fixed in Froyo (or was it post-Froyo?) - anyway, it's somewhere in the

The binder you get in the callback is the binder returned
by the service's onBind.

This example:


http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

has a binder implementation that returns a reference to
its service, so you can do this

public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
 IBinder binder) {

LocalService.LocalBinder binder =
(LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
*LocalService service = binder.getService();*
}

This example has one flaw: it leaks a service reference
(since LocalBinder is a non-static inner class of
LocalService). Using a static inner or a top-level class
for LocalBinder, fixes that (AFAIK).

[android-developers] How to take care of form factor(screen size) and resoultion

2010-09-13 Thread cool.manish
If I wish to run my application on different devices with different
screen size and/or resolution then how can it be achieved?

For example if I have given a padding of 5px for one particular screen
size. That might not look good for a device having larger or smaller
screen than this device. I understand that for the controls which has
size as wrap content or fill_parent, it will work fine. But what could
be done for hard coded values.

If two devices have different screen resolution then i would need
different images, if I am using some image in my application. Do I
need to create different build for different resolution or there is
some way to create more drawable folders with different name and
choosing one of them as we do for localization.

 There is support for this:

- Override getViewTypeCount in the adapter, return how many types of 
views are needed.


- Override getItemViewType in the adapter, return the type of view for a 
particular item.


- ListView will take these in consideration when recycling views, 
getView will only recycle views if they are of the same type.

2010-09-13 Thread Brion Emde
From my limited usage of ContentObserver, it is used to determine when
a single record of the database changes. If you want to observe many

I'd be interested in clarification, if I am incorrect about this.

[android-developers] Re: Is anyone's active install % dropping like a rock lately?

2010-09-13 Thread Pent
 Meanwhile my paid app % is approaching that of my free version, which is
 simply ridiculous, and I've dropped 3 spots in my category.

 How are you guys doing? Better, same, worse?

80%-50%. Virtually all of my sales were last 6 weeks. App continues
to get 4.5 stars.

Re: [android-developers] How to take care of form factor(screen size) and resoultion

2010-09-13 Thread Kostya Vasilyev

 Have you read through this?

http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html

13.09.2010 17:49, cool.manish пишет:

If I wish to run my application on different devices with different
screen size and/or resolution then how can it be achieved?

For example if I have given a padding of 5px for one particular screen
size. That might not look good for a device having larger or smaller
screen than this device. I understand that for the controls which has
size as wrap content or fill_parent, it will work fine. But what could
be done for hard coded values.

If two devices have different screen resolution then i would need
different images, if I am using some image in my application. Do I
need to create different build for different resolution or there is
some way to create more drawable folders with different name and
choosing one of them as we do for localization.

Donal,

No, a service is a service, and a binder is a binder.

The binder you get in the callback is the binder
returned by the service's onBind.

This example:


http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

has a binder implementation that returns a reference
to its service, so you can do this

public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
 IBinder binder) {

LocalService.LocalBinder binder =
(LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
*LocalService service = binder.getService();*
}

This example has one flaw: it leaks a service
reference (since LocalBinder is a non-static inner
class of LocalService). Using a static inner or a
top-level class for LocalBinder, fixes that (AFAIK).

See here for a sample:

No.

 3. What will happen to my application, if someone uninstall Map

Maps, where it exists, usually has a base version installed
permanently, and updates that may come from the Market.

If there is nothing on the device to handle the geo: Intent, your
application will crash. You can use PackageManager and
queryIntentActivities() to see if a given Intent is safe to use with
startActivity().

You could add an Overlay (not MyLocationOverlay), and do custom drawing to
draw an arrow bitmap oriented as necessary (the rotation is simple trig math
given two points).

You could also add an ImageView to the MapView, again rotating it as
necessary.

http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/07ea01892ee7a5f4/9f71428217c2cd44

However the condition is in the cancel code, which I no longer
use as I am running the code in a Service so I have no need to
cancel it.

Donal,

Search the list: there was a post within the last month (I
think) from Romain Guy about some kind of thread race issue
in AsyncTask having been fixed in Froyo (or was it
post-Froyo?) - anyway, it's somewhere in the archives.

I dont cancel the Task at all in my service, I simply

But I get the same issue, after a couple of runs the
AsyncTask simply stops getting to the doInBackground
method, only the postExecute method is run.

Its very strange and really annoying me now.

Is there any reason why an AsyncTask would behave like
this without cancel being used?

Donal,

No, a service is a service, and a binder is a
binder.

The binder you get in the callback is the binder
returned by the service's onBind.

This example:


http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

has a binder implementation that returns a
reference to its service, so you can do this

public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName
className,
 IBinder binder) {

LocalService.LocalBinder binder =
(LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
*LocalService service = binder.getService();*
}

This example has one flaw: it leaks a service
reference (since LocalBinder is a non-static
inner class of LocalService). Using a static
inner or a top-level class for LocalBinder,
fixes that (AFAIK).

 Which build of Java - 1.6
  update 20 or 21? Some issues were reported with update
  21, so if you are using it, can you try rolling back

  The rest looks ok.

[android-developers] Displaying HTML markup in WebView

2010-09-13 Thread Neilz
Hi all.

I'm receiving XML which contains elements of HTML and I want to
display these to the users. Therefore, I have to set the content
programmatically, rather than extract the strings from an android xml
resource.

I'm using a WebView to display the content, rather than TextView, as
it handles some of the HTML markup - bold text for example, and links.
However WebView does appear to be rather limited.

For example, the content I want to display contains definition links:

pThis is a dfn title='some definition'definition/dfn/p

I've been looking at this for a while now, and can't really think of a
way to capture this in android. The idea would be that when the
relevant word is clicked, the definition pops up.

Any ideas appreciated!

Wow, thanks for the tip! I hadn't been bothering with transactions on

Re: [android-developers] Displaying HTML markup in WebView

2010-09-13 Thread Kostya Vasilyev
 Looks like your data is a mix of HTML tags and custom tags that have 
meaning only for your application.


On the other end, WebView works with HTML, and doesn't understand those 
special tags.


I think one way to make it work is to transform those custom tags into 
HTML ones with proper Javascript crutches to implement the 
functionality you seek.


This can be done with XSLT, supposedly Xalan supports SAX and possibly 
can be built on Android (you could try it and write up your experiences).


http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/

You could also probably do the transformation by hand, using Java 
String and friends.

I would think you would handle that in Javascript and DHTML. At worst,
handle it in Javascript and have it call to an object you inject via
addJavascriptInterface() if you want native Android widgets to handle
the popup.

   So it doesn't like the cast from binder to Service?
 
   How can I fix that do you know? What am I missing from the example?

 None of that explains what you're having trouble with, nor did you answer
 the question of what you have working so far.

[android-developers] Setting desktop icon

2010-09-13 Thread Bret Foreman
I've got a line in my manifest that looks like this:

application android:icon=@drawable/icon android:label=@string/
app_name android:debuggable=true

But I see the default Android icon on the desktop instead of the one
in drawable/icon. What else do I need to do?

Yes.

 If so, how is USB debugging turned off?

The user turns it off via the appropriate settings screen. I don't see
where it is exposed via Settings.System, or even Settings.Secure.

OK. That's not really useful information.

What does that mean? 0? Null? An exception?
