[android-developers] Unlocked Android Phones
Hi All I am looking for an unlocked Android phone in India on which I can install custom Android builds. My questions is: Are android phones sell by manufacturers like Samsung galaxy and HTC unlocked or not.

Re: [android-developers] Unlocked Android Phones
Depends on the phone. For example, if you go to the Motorola website, they will suggest you go with your carrier. However, you can also buy the phone itself (at a higher price?). (Or at least, that's what I got out of going to there earlier this morning.) If you're looking for a developer phone, however, buying a ``brand new'' phone might be really expensive. Personally I got a g1 and put 2.2 on it. Also look around for so called ``pay as you go'' android phones. Although at the end of the day getting a nice phone with 2.3 on it might be hard to find cheap. (But still, be sure to check ebay / secondhand first!)

[android-developers] Re: Activity lifecycle... still a mystery to me
No because I don't believe onDestroy would necessarily get called backing out of the activity. Only onPause would be guaranteed to be called. That activity's onDestrw would only get called at some random point in the future when the OS wants more memory. OnPause is the primary. At least that is my understanding. I hope someone corrects me.

Re: [android-developers] Bluetooth Chat Sample code combined with SMS receiving
What external piece of hardware? There is a Bluetooth Chat example in the API samples. You have to pair them first, right? I've heard of trouble with non phones (i.e., if you picked up a module on sparkfun), but this could be cool and I'd be interested to hear your mileage. The only thing I don't get is that you want to send a Bluetooth Message with ``the SMS'' This doesn't make sense, they are completely different types of communication? From what I got you want to send a message to a BT module (non phone) when the phone receives a text. So the application would be something like a cheap piece of hardware that does something with received texts when you were near it? We need more information.

I have all the direct communication between the two completed. However I would like to add functionality for the phone to send a Bluetooth Message with the SMS when an SMS is received.

[android-developers] Re: Canvas frame rate very choppy in Live Wallpaper
I think you are possibly doing this the wrong way. There is a canvas.translate() method which moves the canvas itself. This just sets the hardware to look at a translated location, so should be instantaneous plus or minus 1 nanosecond. The downside is that you will need to draw the image to a larger sized bitmap than the screen, to cater for the movement you allow in your canvas.translate call, 19 pixels all around in your example. On Mar 20, 9:07 am, Jeffrey jeffisagen...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to make a simple (or so I thought) live wallpaper that takes an image and moves it slowly in a circular motion, to make the picture seem less static and more like looking out a window. I took the live wallpaper tutorial from the SDK and stripped it down to the bare bones so I could add to it. But the issue is that no matter what size the image I'm moving, or what format (drawable or bitmap), it is only getting about 3 fps. I don't know what to do to make this run faster, I have very limited programming knowledge so I don't know if I'm missing something stupid. Also, this is the code I'm using to calculate the circular movement: int NewX = (int) (OffsetX + Math.sin(Dist)*19); int NewY = (int) (OffsetY + Math.cos(Dist)*19); where Dist is the speed it's moving and 19 is the radius of the circle. Is there an easier way? I looked into Tween animation but I don't know how I would implement my circle code into it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

When the user changes the orientation of the device later on after viewing a few pages, the onConfigurationChanged gets called, and I load the URL the user was looking at (I saved it in a variable from my WebViewClient's onPageStarted). This works, except the history is lost because it's a new WebView. What's a better way of doing this? I want my WebViewClient to behave like a normal browser when the user tilts the phone, just reloading the current page and preserving the history. If you are using onConfigurationChanged(), leave the existing WebView alone. Use Java code to adjust your layout parameters and such to reflect the new orientation rather than inflate a new layout. If you leave the WebView alone, it should retain its history. This particular problem is one of the few good reasons to use onConfigurationChanged(). However, pretty much all of those reasons mean you really shouldn't load in a fresh layout file. Loading a fresh layout file might be used in demonstrations in some books (ahem) but isn't really the right production strategy. :: quick makes a note to really cover this scenario better in next update to that book :: Thanks for the tip! Just doing nothing (other than kicking it back upstairs with super) in onConfigurationChanged seems to have solved my problem. The examples dealing with onConfigurationChanged that I'd seen had UI's that needed fiddling after orientation changes so that's why they broke lots of stuff out of onCreate.

[android-developers] Layout help
Hi all. I'm struggling with a layout... would appreciate any suggestions on how to handle this. Basically, I have a list of objects. Each has attributes (like Name) and an image. I want to display the objects in a gallery style, allowing the user to scroll / fling from one item to the next. The tricky bits I'm facing are: - I want the gallery overall to sit within a static outer frame (i.e. my main.xml), so that the gallery itself is not full screen. - I want each item within the gallery to be controlled via its own xml layout (i.e. the same layout applied to each item). - I want only one item to be displayed at a time. I've been playing around with various Gallery examples, but the items merge into a row rather than being filling the enclosing parent. I've also been trying the FlingGallery which has been posted here before, but can't get that to work within an enclosing layout via xml file. I'm sure this is simpler than I'm making it out to be - any ideas? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: HI
Either the pairing dialog, or the pairing notification, pop up automatically when you try to connect to an unpaired device. It would be nice if I could force the dialog version, though. On Mar 11, 5:28 pm, Michael Elmsly mike.elm...@gmail.com wrote: Technically it is the platforms fault. OK - so the spec requires pairing and for security reasons you always want the user to be responsible for that (no autopairing or hidden pairing of devices). Since this means you can't allow apps to control pairing the logical thing to do is open the bluetooth pairing activity via a public intent so that developers can request pairing with a device while still having the security and UI managed by the android platform to protect the users. Seems fairly obvious to me or am I being unreasonable?

[android-developers] Re: Is anybody using amazon S3 for uploading files from android?
Can you ever get the upload to work? If you run it on the emulator? If you run it on a device but use WiFi instead of the cell network? Are there any differing scenarios where that same code will work or not work? Have you tried downloading the file from S3, renaming it to JPG and seeing if it is valid/corrupted/nonsense? Are the uploaded files (no matter which image you use) always 32 bytes? That might imply an error message is getting streamed to S3 and not the image data itself in which case reading it might help you figure out what is going on (e.g. permission issue).

[android-developers] Re: Canvas frame rate very choppy in Live Wallpaper
Jeffrey, To what Peter said, mobile devices are very fill-rate-limited (at least these current gen of phones) so depending on how you are repainting that image over and over and over again to the Canvas, that could explain the speed issue. If you tried a tiny little 16x16 icon and it went much faster with the same code, then I think you've found your culprit. Regardless, Peter's approach sounds like the right way; upload image data to the GPU one, then just move your view of it around in a circle, panning across the image. On Mar 19, 3:07 pm, Jeffrey jeffisagen...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to make a simple (or so I thought) live wallpaper that takes an image and moves it slowly in a circular motion, to make the picture seem less static and more like looking out a window. I took the live wallpaper tutorial from the SDK and stripped it down to the bare bones so I could add to it. But the issue is that no matter what size the image I'm moving, or what format (drawable or bitmap), it is only getting about 3 fps. I don't know what to do to make this run faster, I have very limited programming knowledge so I don't know if I'm missing something stupid. Also, this is the code I'm using to calculate the circular movement: int NewX = (int) (OffsetX + Math.sin(Dist)*19); int NewY = (int) (OffsetY + Math.cos(Dist)*19); where Dist is the speed it's moving and 19 is the radius of the circle. Is there an easier way? I looked into Tween animation but I don't know how I would implement my circle code into it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

may just want to move your loadURL() or whatever call to

Well, you can definitely use WebView in fragments:

My best guess is that the fragment is not yet attached to the view
hierarchy by then. Since you get the same Bundle in both places, you
may just want to move your loadURL() or whatever call to
onCreateView().

2011/3/19 lbendlin l...@bendlin.us It's possible, but it still has nothing to do with GPRS. As you mentioned you will have to keep track of the station IDs, network IDs, and transmit power for each cell you're booked into while moving. Transmit power will vary with time of day, weather, location of your receiver (hand, pocket etc), so you're looking at quite some complex data mining. But yes, it's possible.

[android-developers] Re: Refresh previous activity on Back Button Press
Hi,
Here is a simple example of how flags maybe helpful while calling back
button (btw by back button i mean a phone back button):
public class BodyActivity extends Activity {
OnClickListener mNextButtonListener = new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
restartActivity();
}
};
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.body);
Button nextButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.next_button);
nextButton.setOnClickListener(mNextButtonListener);
}
private void restartActivity() {
Intent i = new Intent(getBaseContext(), BodyActivity.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
startActivity(i);
}
}
if you don't use the flag in this particular example it will put the
same activity to the history stack and every time you click back
button it will go back through the stack.
If that doesn't help then pls provide more details or an example of
what you are trying to do.

Using onResume() method is not solving this problem. The reason is I am
having a list item activity. From there I am calling List Item Body
Activity. List Item Body Activity contains back and previous button.
Now, inside List Item Body Activity if I am calling this activity itself
in onResume() method then it never goes back to List
Item Activity. Everytime I am pressing back button iin List Item Body
Activity, it is making an intent of itself and starting it and never
goes back to List Item Activity.

Re: [android-developers] JDBC driver support
This isn't a good answer. It's not just a matter of security, but also performance and robustness and flexibility and overly-tight coupling of client and database schema. Such an architecture will lead to a host of problems. For example -- if you make a change, you have to simultaneously update both the database, and all clients that access that database. This is particularly difficult in the case of mobile devices. There are good reasons that's why that's not where client/server architecture has evolved over the past 15 years or so. However, there is good reason to want JDBC for the situation the original poster (Dan) raised -- access to your local SQLite database. The reason is -- if you have an application with local data persistence, why should you need two different versions, one for Android, and one for everywhere else? SQLite is not a standard. SQL and JDBC are. There are tons of libraries built atop of SQL and JDBC, that you cannot use on Android. You can't use those, either. I don't know how common this is -- but I think it's a legitimate answer to Mark's Why?. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Unlocked Android Phones
To add two more cents: If you plan on installing your own Android builds on this device, you should also consider two more issues: the boot loader and the drivers. Some phones come with locked boot loaders that only work with official builds digitally signed by the manufacturer. Some of those phones get hacked, but that is likely a violation of copyright laws. Other phones have bootloaders that don't have this protection. The issue of drivers is that Android (just like any OS) needs hardware drivers to function. The Android open source repository includes some drivers, but does not cover all possible hardware variations that occur in the real world. This is reflected in enthusiast builds of new Android versions where you often see a list of unsupported features (the phone boots, but there is no GPS and no sound, for example). -- Kostya 20.03.2011 23:28, Dalvinder Singh ?: Thanks a lot...

Personally I got a g1 and put 2.2 on it. Also look around for so called ``pay as you go'' android phones. Although at the end of the day getting a nice phone with 2.3 on it might be hard to find cheap. (But still, be sure to check ebay / secondhand first!)

[android-developers] Re: Canvas frame rate very choppy in Live Wallpaper
Is there a way around having to call canvas.drawbitmap() every time? And if I call canvas.translate() after drawing the image doesn't move, it instead moves everything that would draw *after* the call to canvas.translate(). Thank you for your help so far, and I'm hoping you have just a little bit left in you :) On Mar 20, 9:12 am, Riyad Kalla rka...@gmail.com wrote: Jeffrey, To what Peter said, mobile devices are very fill-rate-limited (at least these current gen of phones) so depending on how you are repainting that image over and over and over again to the Canvas, that could explain the speed issue. If you tried a tiny little 16x16 icon and it went much faster with the same code, then I think you've found your culprit. Regardless, Peter's approach sounds like the right way; upload image data to the GPU one, then just move your view of it around in a circle, panning across the image.

But the issue is that no matter what size the image I'm moving, or what format (drawable or bitmap), it is only getting about 3 fps. I don't know what to do to make this run faster, I have very limited programming knowledge so I don't know if I'm missing something stupid. Also, this is the code I'm using to calculate the circular movement: int NewX = (int) (OffsetX + Math.sin(Dist)*19); int NewY = (int) (OffsetY + Math.cos(Dist)*19); where Dist is the speed it's moving and 19 is the radius of the circle. Is there an easier way?

[android-developers] Widgets in SD installed application
Did widgets work in a SD installed application? According Android javadoc it seems that can work: App Widgets Your A file:///C:/java/android/docs/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.htmlpp Widgets will be removed from the home screen. When external storage is remounted, your App Widget will *not* be available for the user to select until the system resets the home application (usually not until a system reboot). But I tried in my application and if it's moved to the SD the widgets disappear from the home screen and also from the list of available widgets and it is not possible to add another time. (I tested with Nexus S with 2.3.2 with reboot included) I read also in StackOverflow an entry saying that widgets didn't work on sd http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4747395/android-widget-from-sd-card They work or not?

[android-developers] Interested in making a killer GTD app?
Hi guys, I'm an Android user who never learnt to code but has UI design as a hobby. I'm also fond of the GTD productivity method, but never found an Android app that could bring all its potential. So, I designed one myself, together with a friend who would then do the coding. The problem is, this person didn't had any free time to code and the app was never finished. I would like to find a developer or group of developers who would like to take on such a project, and make this app real. You can read all about the design, and make your comments and questions, in this Google Docs documenthttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1RlM2aDBxnOfmlV9dPLBuaI26ngVSpJCdIW23_qZyTrs/edit?authkey=CK20l6IChl=es# .

I agree with it but I want to see general trend of Android Market and users for priced applications.

Hi,
I have looked everywhere and feel like I am going in circles at this
point what I am trying to do seems simple enough.. I a, trying to take
json data parsed from my mysql server and send the info to an array
list in android.
I can return the json strings with no problem, eg.
json_data.getString(username) gives me a username in string format,
but how do I put them into the a simple arraylist
for example how can I plug this into..
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapterString(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mStrings));
getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);
}
private String[] mStrings = {
Abbaye de Belloc, Abbaye du Mont des Cats};
please help.. thanks,
Albert

[android-developers] Help using custom Preference types - for pity or money
My new wallpaper is 99.9% finished. One thing I can't get to work, is using a third party color selector widget. This last 0.1% has taken over a week. I need help, and am prepared to pay for it if neccesary. It is that or go crazy. I have modified the standard cube demo to call an additional ColorPreference for testing. So all I am trying to do for testing is shoehorn a color selection preference into the standard cube demo. I have tried with two different color selector preferences downloaded from GitHub. My cube2settings.xml looks as follows: PreferenceScreen xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android android:title=@string/cube2_settings android:key=cube2wallpaper_settings ListPreference android:key=cube2_shape android:title=@string/cube2_settings_title android:summary=@string/cube2_settings_summary android:entries=@array/cube2_shapenames android:entryValues=@array/cube2_shapeprefix / ListPreference android:key=mechanism_type android:title=@string/mechanism_title android:summary=@string/mechanism_summary android:entries=@array/mechanism_names android:entryValues=@array/mechanism_types / !-- com.example.android.livecubes.cube2.ColorPreference -- !-- android:key=favoriteColor -- !-- android:defaultValue=0xFFA4C639 -- !-- android:title=Your Favorite Color -- !-- android:summary=Blue. No yel- Agh! -- !-- / -- com.example.android.livecubes.cube2.ColorPickerPreference android:key=rotorcolour android:title=some title android:summary=@string/color1_summary android:defaultValue=#FF alphaSlider=false / /PreferenceScreen The first listpreference is from the cube demo; the second is a test one I put in. The third ColorPreference is commented out. It calls the first color picker I tried. If that is included, the system throws an error when I press settings. The fourth preference uses a different ColorPickerPreference class which I tried instead. This one allows the main preference screen to be shown, but I get a Thread [3 main] (Suspended (exception InflateException)) when I select this preference to modify. Without either of these preferences, it works as expected. Apart from copy and pasting the new color selector classes into my project and changing the package names, and the change to cube2settings.xml above, it is the standard cube demo, with the standard Manifest, cube2settings.java etc. This is almost the last thing I have to do to get this out the door. Its driving me crazy. I am missing something very simple. If somebody can suggest what this is, I would be extremely grateful. If not, I am making some obvious, simple mistake - I didn't write any of the code, I just tried to glue two simple demo programs together for testing. For somebody who knows Preferences, it is probably one minute to one hour to find and fix my mistake, and I am desperate enough to pay for this assistance. I can email you the cube test project and you fix my simple mistake. If you have a profile on this group, I am willing to pay some or all upfront. Please email privately.

[android-developers] Re: AppWidget Stopped !!!
Dear Mark, I appreciate your advice. Anyway, as you mentioned, I fell into the trap of trying to have an endless service though it's bad design. I agree it's better using AlarmManager than receiver w/ ACTION_TIME_TICK. However, another problem is ACTION_TIME_CHANGED or ACTION_TIMEZONE_CHANGED. If receiver has died from system, we also can NOT receive above broadcast messages.

[android-developers] Re: Canvas frame rate very choppy in Live Wallpaper
Call canvas.translate(-x), draw, then call canvas.translate(x) You are moving the location on the canvas underneath where you draw, after you have drawn whatever you need to move the canvas back. On Mar 21, 8:47 am, Jeffrey jeffisagen...@gmail.com wrote: Is there a way around having to call canvas.drawbitmap() every time? And if I call canvas.translate() after drawing the image doesn't move, it instead moves everything that would draw *after* the call to canvas.translate(). Thank you for your help so far, and I'm hoping you have just a little bit left in you :) On Mar 20, 9:12 am, Riyad Kalla rka...@gmail.com wrote: Jeffrey, To what Peter said, mobile devices are very fill-rate-limited (at least these current gen of phones) so depending on how you are repainting that image over and over and over again to the Canvas, that could explain the speed issue. If you tried a tiny little 16x16 icon and it went much faster with the same code, then I think you've found your culprit. Regardless, Peter's approach sounds like the right way; upload image data to the GPU one, then just move your view of it around in a circle, panning across the image. On Mar 19, 3:07 pm, Jeffrey jeffisagen...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to make a simple (or so I thought) live wallpaper that takes an image and moves it slowly in a circular motion, to make the picture seem less static and more like looking out a window. I took the live wallpaper tutorial from the SDK and stripped it down to the bare bones so I could add to it. But the issue is that no matter what size the image I'm moving, or what format (drawable or bitmap), it is only getting about 3 fps. I don't know what to do to make this run faster, I have very limited programming knowledge so I don't know if I'm missing something stupid. Also, this is the code I'm using to calculate the circular movement: int NewX = (int) (OffsetX + Math.sin(Dist)*19); int NewY = (int) (OffsetY + Math.cos(Dist)*19); where Dist is the speed it's moving and 19 is the radius of the circle. Is there an easier way? I looked into Tween animation but I don't know how I would implement my circle code into it.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Unlocked Android Phones
Thanks a lot... On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 2:08 AM, Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com wrote: To add two more cents: If you plan on installing your own Android builds on this device, you should also consider two more issues: the boot loader and the drivers. Some phones come with locked boot loaders that only work with official builds digitally signed by the manufacturer. Some of those phones get hacked, but that is likely a violation of copyright laws. Other phones have bootloaders that don't have this protection. The issue of drivers is that Android (just like any OS) needs hardware drivers to function. The Android open source repository includes some drivers, but does not cover all possible hardware variations that occur in the real world. This is reflected in enthusiast builds of new Android versions where you often see a list of unsupported features (the phone boots, but there is no GPS and no sound, for example). -- Kostya 20.03.2011 23:28, Dalvinder Singh пишет: Thanks a lot...

However, you can also buy the phone itself (at a higher price?). (Or at least, that's what I got out of going to there earlier this morning.) If you're looking for a developer phone, however, buying a ``brand new'' phone might be really expensive. Personally I got a g1 and put 2.2 on it. Also look around for so called ``pay as you go'' android phones. Although at the end of the day getting a nice phone with 2.3 on it might be hard to find cheap. (But still, be sure to check ebay / secondhand first!)
