Re: [android-developers] Share data between an activity and an event listener (separate class file)
I maybe should have said: Can I access attributes/member variables of my activity in my event listener? That is: Manipulate the date in my listener and have the updated data in my activity? Am Freitag, 29. Juni 2012 21:27:38 UTC+2 schrieb MagouyaWare: This is a basic java question, not related to Android in any way... To do that you can create a constructor that takes as parameters the data you want you're listener to have access to. Alternatively you can add getters/setters to add that data you want separately. ..

[android-developers] How to: Free to Paid App and retain preference and db files?
Hi, I have a Ads supported app and I am planning to release a paid version without Ads and extra features. My questions are how do I release the app so my user can purchase and use with losing the preferences and db? Can I package it with the same name and upload into Google Play as new app or how is it been normally done?

Re: [android-developers] How to: Free to Paid App and retain preference and db files?
as long as the .apk has the same name, i.e. com.my.app, then you wont lose the preferences and database. If the.apk is different then you will need to consider how to export the sharedprefs/db from the current version (an update), to the sdcard, and have an import function in the newer version.

[android-developers] WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar gone in Jelly Bean? Which alternatives?
Hi all, some of my users have already updated their Galaxy Nexus to Jelly Bean and these users are no longer able to use my app (GoodNews news reader and podcast player), as it uses the WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar() method to inject the article title into the article view, so that it scrolls in a senseful manner. On Jelly Bean this beahviour produces the following exception: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: setEmbeddedTitleBar [class android.view.View] I know that this method hasn't been a public API call (except for a short time in android 3.0), but it worked well since android 2. Unfortunately the Jelly Bean source code isn't available now, so that I can only guess. Can someone cofirm that this method is gone? Any ideas for alternatives?

This gets to the heart of Ms. Hackborn's comment: per-component power measurement is tricky business without low-level hardware data collection (e.g., Qualcomm MDP). It's all just guesswork. Chipsets vary in power consumption, sometimes fairly widely, let alone differences in CPU and GPU. Looks like the Trepn profiler is currently being redesigned and is not available (https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobile-development/development-devices/trepn-profiler), but then as u mentioned it needs to be used with their expensive MDP devices.

rideDate never gets assigned and the other values seem to not be assigned in order ie; distance may end up being the second element, when I would have expected rideDate to be the first and distance to be the fourth. This is how I use the newRideValues collection. new BikingLogsContentProvider().insert(CONTENT_URI, newRideValues); Any ideas and suggestions would be very welcome. Sequence of contentValues doesn't matter. The thing which matters here is the pair of key and value.

Re: [android-developers] How to: Free to Paid App and retain preference and db files?
Google Play will not allow you do upload two apps with the same package name. Due to this, there are only a few ways you can share the content. You can use Content Providers to serve it from the free app to the paid one. You can save it on the SD Card and allow everyone to read it.

[android-developers] Re: Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) issues.
This code will send a GCM message to multiple registration IDs via CURL. If you receive an *Unavailable* error code when you try to send a GCM: *Generate a Browser API Key from the Google APIs Console*, and use it *instead of the server key* in the Authorization header. Once you do that, this error will go away. This is caused by a serious mistake in the GCM Documentation that states you should use a Server Key in the Authorization header (as written herehttp://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/gs.html ) // Replace with real server API key from Google APIs $apiKey = 123456; // Replace with real client registration IDs $registrationIDs = array( 123, 456 ); // Message to be sent $message = x; // Set POST variables $url = 'https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send'; $fields = array( 'registration_ids' = $registrationIDs, 'data' = array( message = $message ), ); $headers = array( 'Authorization: key=' . $apiKey, 'Content-Type: application/json' ); // Open connection $ch = curl_init(); // Set the url, number of POST vars, POST data curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields ) ); // Execute post $result = curl_exec($ch); // Close connection curl_close($ch); echo $result; On Friday, June 29, 2012 5:22:02 AM UTC+3, RyanMC wrote: We are in the final stages of developing an app that had utilized C2DM for push notification, and decided to swap over to the new GCM since we hadn't released yet and it seemed like a good idea.

Re: [android-developers] WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar gone in Jelly Bean? Which alternatives?
Hi Romain, yes, I know that I should never rely on this. On the other hand there isn't really an alternative to the mentioned method and implementing the same behavior on top of the existing WebView would be a night mare -- if not impossible. Further on it was also used by some of the standard apps like the web browser. If there is no other way I will need to put the WebView inside a ScrollView, but -- at least in the past -- this brought a bad user experience as it wasn't possible to scroll diagonal as the ScrollView captured the vertical scroll events and the WebView the horizontal ones.

Re: [android-developers] WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar gone in Jelly Bean? Which alternatives?
Can't you just create a layout with your title bar view first and the webview below? Or just let your title bar view hover on top of the webview and add a padding to the rendered HTML via JavaScript injection. Or you could inject a HTML-based titlebar with fixed positioning into the webview. I haven't seen that title bar in action, so I don't know whether I am missing something obvious here, but just by reading the API documentation for that method it sounds like you can get a simple workaround working for that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar gone in Jelly Bean? Which alternatives?
Can't you just create a layout with your title bar view first and the webview below? This is exactly what I wanted to do in the past when I've started to create GoodNews: Intuitively I've created a ScrollView, added my title view and the WebView below. The problem with this is that the ScrollView and the WebView do not work together well. The user can either scroll vertically *or* horizontally but not both directions at once (diagonal). So if you as a user want to scroll to the bottom right corner of the view, then you need to scroll down at first, lift the finger for a moment and then scroll to the right -- not really what I as a user would expect. Just search at stackoverflow for [android] +webview +scrollview and you will find quite a few of questions related to this topic... Or just let your title bar view hover on top of the webview and add a padding to the rendered HTML via JavaScript injection. Or you could inject a HTML-based titlebar with fixed positioning into the webview. Tried this in the past and it worked fine for HTML which I've provided on my own, but not if I load external WebSites (I am a Google Reader client, so I *need* to load external web pages. I haven't seen that title bar in action, so I don't know whether I am missing something obvious here, but just by reading the API documentation for that method it sounds like you can get a simple workaround working for that. It should behave similar to the address bar of the standard browser: If you scroll down the website, the title bar should disappear and if you scroll back to the top it should reapear. Scrolling horizonally shouldn't affect the title bar at all -- to the user it should look as if it was fixed. This was exactly the behavior provided by the embedded title bar and if you look at the implementation then you will see that there is no possibility to implement the same just by deriving from WebView as it depends on a few private methods -- especially not in the Jelly Bean version of the WebView as it delegates all it's calls to the new ClassicWebView... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] WebView.setEmbeddedTitleBar gone in Jelly Bean? Which alternatives?
Okay, if the new WebView is still some Layout / ViewGroup you could hack
the same functionality into it again by peeking at the WebView.java
sourcehttps://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/webkit/WebView.java
:
public void setEmbeddedTitleBar(View v) {
if (mTitleBar == v) return;
if (mTitleBar != null) {
removeView(mTitleBar);
}
if (null != v) {
addView(v, new AbsoluteLayout.LayoutParams(
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0, 0));
}
mTitleBar = v;
}
You could derive your own CompatWebView that overrides this method and
checks the API level via
Build.VERSION.SDK_INThttp://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.VERSION.html#SDK_INTand
branch accordingly to your workaround.
If that is neither wanted nor recommended by Google or just too shaky for
your taste, another workaround comes to my mind that might not work as
smoothly, but it's better than nothing:
You could create an HTML page (as a string for example) with your header
title on top and an iframe below which loads the actual URL. Only problem
with that iframe is that you need to resize it according to the loaded
content. I don't know how this interacts with the way WebView tries to fit
in content or how pinch-to-zoom works with that. Another problem is that
the title bar would also change its size when the user zooms in or out.

I've already gave the iframe stuff a try in the past, but unfortunately exactly the calculation of the natural width of the iframe-content was the problem. I would definitely prefer the first option (extending WebView). But just take a look into the old (API Level 14) solution and search for mTitleBar or getTitleHeight and you will quickly recognized, that this is used in many places which are not reachable from within a derived class. At the moment it looks to me as if I need to create a fallback solution for API level 16 and above which will put the title and the WebView into a ScrollView. This will be the first time, that a newer android version will bring a worse user experience to my users :-( -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Renderscript Deprecated
Let's recap: - Renderscript Graphics has always been hardware accelerated - Renderscript Compute is currently CPU bound but with the for_each construct it will take advantage of multiple cores immediately - Renderscript Compute was designed to run on the GPU and/or the CPU - Renderscript Compute avoids having to write JNI code and gives you architecture independent, high performance results - Renderscript Compute can, as of Android 4.1, benefit from SIMD optimizations (NEON on ARM) If you want to write apps that benefit from hardware acceleration you can either: - Use the Java OpenGL ES 1.x/2.x bindings - Use OpenGL ES 1.x/2.x from native code with the NDK (at the cost of having to target specific CPU architectures) For data processing you can: - Write normal Java code - Use the NDK/JNI - Use Renderscript Compute Renderscript Compute is likely to give you the best performance as well as portability. I recommend you watch Jeff Sharkey's Doing More With Less talk that he gave this year at Google I/O. He shows an example of Renderscript Compute for data processing.

But then as a developer (assuming u have the N1), would'nt getting power consumption details on one model still give u a fair and reasonably consistent view of how it would perform on most models ? If the intent is to understand the consumption pattern of ones application, this is reasonably good enough right ? I certainly would not make that assumption. This gets to the heart of Ms. Hackborn's comment: per-component power measurement is tricky business without low-level hardware data collection (e.g., Qualcomm MDP). It's all just guesswork. Chipsets vary in power consumption, sometimes fairly widely, let alone differences in CPU and GPU. Yeah, it's not true at all. For example we added tracking and measurement of wake locks in 2.3, because we were working with a chipset we hadn't before where just holding a wakelock caused power use; on previous chipsets the CPU could still go into full power collapse while a wakelock is held. I still consider the battery stats to be extremely experimental, and in need of a lot of improvement. What we have now is enough to provide a UI to users that will in some cases help them determine when apps are impacting their battery life. There are still a number of things it misses, and many approximations it does that means certain patterns of behavior can't be measured correctly. It is definitely not robust enough to present as a public API with guarantees we feel we can make about it. Honestly, it just sounds like people have bigger expectations for what is there than what it actually is. I definitely don't want people writing apps with the data and presenting it as some kind of strong information that has good guarantees about accuracy. It doesn't.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Renderscript Deprecated
To add a little more context to the deprecation notice (I think the choice of the word experimental is a little misleading, sorry for the confusion): The feedback we got from internal and external app developers was that they preferred to use OpenGL directly because of familiarity portability either through our Java bindings or NDK. In contrast, we do see interest in the compute API of Renderscript. Hence we've decided to no longer evolve the RS graphics APIs (hence deprecation notice) and instead focus on building out Renderscript's GPU-compute support and developing Renderscript further especially for applications such as image processing.

[android-developers] Socket Time out
*The setup*
I have at home a wifi router under which I have my devices(couple of
laptops,TV, Android phone and tablet). The router is connected to a cable
modem provided by my ISP and all the devices share this connection.
*Problem*
Recently my ISP came up with an additional security system.On first
connect(could be from any device) I need to authenticate myself with a
username/password to my ISP website. I checked the system and they were
intercepting the first http connection from my side and redirecting my
browser to their login page. Some how my android browsers are not able to
show this login page. I need to connect using my laptop and only later
android devices can connect to internet.
*My Solution*
I wrote a small java application to over come this problem. It tries to
connect to google.com. Intercept the redirect request and finally post my
username password. The application is working fine with my laptop and I
hooked it with windows start up and everything is great. Android devices
still are not very happy with this app. On debugging I find that my very
first socket connections is getting timed out and my application fails.
*Technical Details*
*Device *- Motorola Defy Plus
*Android version* - 2.3.3
*Exception Socket* - Time out
*Code*
public class SocketHttp {
public static Socket connect(String ip) throws Exception {
Socket socket = new Socket(ip, 80);
return socket;

.
}
As I have not logged in to my ISP I am not depending on the DNS service and
directly hardcoding a google.com IP.I have added
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET / in the
Android Manifest. The code works correctly if the ISP login is completed
using my lap top.
Any idea what is going wrong?

[android-developers] How to create time-lapse video from existing pictures?
Hi all. I have the duty of making a code to read a path on the external storage containing some taken pictures and create a time- lapse video from them. Since I must use Android SDK 2.1, I have no access to the system codecs. Therefore, I cannot directly create the video from the pictures. One possible solution is to inherit from the Camera class, override takePicture method to read sequentially the pictures from the External Storage and use the class MediaRecorder to record the video file (passing the inherited new Camera class). However, I don't really know how to do this. Other solution is to write my own video codec to convert a bunch of pictures to HD H264 video. However, this is way too much code to do... Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Renderscript Deprecated

[android-developers] Problem with activity termination in singleTask mode
Hi, Right now I'm starting an Activity (call this Activity A) from outside of an Activity context - therefore Activity A is hosted in its own task. Activity A in turn calls Activity B for result. Since I want only 1 instance of Activity A running at any given time, I'm setting Activity A's launch mode to singleTask. Here comes the problem: from Activity B, the user clicks Home. He then tries to start Activity A again. The existing task is brought to the front, but for some reason Activity B automatically finishes before Activity A's onNewIntent() is called. This in turn terminates Activity A altogether. I'd really appreciate it if someone can tell me what's wrong.

[android-developers] Method for passing information between Fragments
I currently have two fragments setup on the same landscape screen. On the left is a Map Fragment, while on the right is a List Fragment. There is a MainActivity that creates the Fragments. Each Fragment has its own Fragment class and Activity Class. I am looking at the best method to allow the ArrayList of GeoPoints created from my ItemizedOverlay to populate the ListFragment by passing the list to the ListFragment when points are created. Then, when a person clicks one of the points in the ListFragment, it sends back a message to the MapFragment that pops up an information bubble for the waypoint in question. Basically, I am looking for the best method to pass this waypoint list (and a return point chosen) message between MapFragment and ListFragment. If it would be better to have a third fragment that sits in the background to hold this information, I would be fine with that since in the future these points will be sent off to another phone. I am sorry if this question has already been asked, but I have not been able to find a simple answer. If you have a reference, I would be happy to look at that.

[android-developers] GL10 access from outside of the rendering thread ...
Hello, I am optimizing an OpenGL-based application ported from that other major mobile OS and find that I cannot successfully access the GL context from anything other than the rendering thread of GLSurfaceView. What I CAN do on other platforms is upload my single (and large) texture to GL prior to needing to render the texture itself. This is a 640x480 8-bit RGB texture that takes some time to upload to the chip and needs to be done every time I realize a new frame of animation from the background system memory buffer. I'm sure you can appreciate the savings in execution time if I can perform this upload from another thread when I have nothing left to do but wait for GLSurfaceView's rendering thread to call me. All is synchronized safely as evidenced by the successful release of this software using this very same technique on that-other-platform-that-shall-not-be named. Things are very smooth and zippy on that platform, but Android currently suffers by comparison. Is there any way to do this?

[android-developers] Passing information between two Fragments (Map Fragment and List Fragment)
I am looking for the best way to send information between a Map Fragment and a List Fragment. Half the screen is dedicated to a Map Fragment using the TabHost method, while the other half is dedicated to a List Fragment. The main activity creates the separate fragments which each have their own Fragment and Activity classes. My desire is to send an ArrayList of waypoints created in my ItemizedOverlay class that is within the Map Fragment to the List Fragment which will in turn display each waypoint. From the List Fragment side, I desire to send the selected List item (waypoint) back to the Map Fragment so I can then display a bubble giving information on that waypoint. More will be done, but this is one part of my problem. I am sorry if familiar questions to this have been asked, but I have not found one that details how to dig deep into a class such as ItemizedOverlay and pass the information back and forth. Some methods I have seen are Intents and direct passing a pulling variables in each Fragment, but I am unsure of the best way to handle this information sharing. I have even looked into the possibility of keeping a third fragment in the background as I will at one time be sending these waypoints outside of this app to another phone. Any help would be appreciated and I would be happy to give more information if needed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
