Re: [android-developers] Re: Goiogle Play - Dev Console not updating since July 25
Are you deliberately mischaracterizing my comment? I posted the date. Since I've been following my apps on GPlay I have never seen it miss a single day. The fact that it did miss 2 full days is remarkable. On Sat, Jul 28, 2012 at 11:29 PM, Zsolt Vasvari zvasv...@gmail.com wrote: It skipped one day, the 26th. Back on 27th.

Re: [android-developers] Fragments Bitmap Recycling + a bunch of bitmap oriented questions.
I've written a simple test where I have: FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager(); FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction(); ft.hide(_sv); ft.commit(); When the fragment gets hidden - onPause doesn't get fired. However, system fires a chain of callbacks up to onDestroyView when I use a replace method. So, I guess, I should be performing memory-recycling operations in onDestroyView method. I've also noticed that when I hide the ViewPager component with setVisibility(GONE) its' fragments dont fire onPause callback. Is there any workaround to tell all the fragments inside the ViewPager to clean themselves with onDestroyView ? I still think I should use fragments since in a Tablet version those pages are implemented as tabs. Thanks again and I was wondering whether you could point out or give some links on implementing the memory management process. I have a lousy knoweledge about WeakReferences, recycle(), System.gc() features but I guess they are somewhat mutually-excluding. Probably, I should stick to Weak/Soft references approach, should I ? If so - could you share some insights/give link on the whole process of instantiating bitmap down to the recycling. On Sunday, July 29, 2012 12:28:08 AM UTC+3, Dianne Hackborn wrote: If you have a fragment that holds on to a lot of memory in its view hierarchy and are concerned about this, then use FragmentTransaction.remove() to make it no longer visible -- that will remove it from its parent view and destroy its view hierarchy, so it doesn't hold on to any references. (If you are manually loading bitmaps in the fragment, in onDestroyView() you can clear the references there.) Of course this means a bit more overhead when the user returns to the fragment, since its view hierarchy needs to be re-inflated and initialized again. But it won't be any worse than the first time the user visited it, and you need that to be fast as well. It is true that FragmentTransaction.hide() does not remove and the destroy the fragment's view hierarchy, just doing View.setVisibility(). But that is not all -- it takes care of managing the fragment lifecycle so that fragment will be paused and stopped (since it is no longer visible). You can implement the lifecycle to free up resources if you need to. This will also result in them being freed when the entire activity is stopped, which is probably what you want as well. You shouldn't be directly hiding the view associated with a fragment. That is what FragmentTransaction.hide/show() is for. There is no need to directly hide the view owned by it, and doing so means that you are letting the correct fragment semantics execute. (And for what it's worth, if you have no reason to use fragments with ViewPager, there is nothing forcing you to -- you can write your own adapter that directly manages raw views and doesn't use fragments at all.)

I decided to implement the app with 3 activities and about 8 fragments. The fragment number might slightly increase yet I think it's not the fragments but their bitmaps that gonna cause troubles with memory. For displaying the fragments I have two containers: a ViewPager(rotates 3-4 fragments) element and a FrameLayout(displays strictly one fragment) element. Right now I'm simply hiding one type of container and showing another - setVisibility or fragmentTransaction.hide (I haven't figured out what is the difference between these two apart from the latest gives an ability of adding to activity's backstack). Is their any better way of switching between the containers ? Additionally, even if those fragments might not hold much memory by themselves - should I wrap those objects with SoftReference ? Could you tell any precautions/advices for implementing an app with such structure ? Thanks.

I don't quite understand your question. When a Bitmap is loaded as a Drawable (which is what ImageView does), it gets cached by the system (using weak references.) This means that if do this: Drawable d1 = loadDrawable(R.drawable.**myImage); Drawable d2 = loadDrawable(R.drawable.**myImage); you will get 2 different instances of Drawable, but the underlying Bitmap will be loaded in memory only once. 2) same as 1. but for BitmapFactory.decodeResource Every time you call this method you will load a new instance of a Bitmap object, which means you will use more memory. 3) What part of Bitmap object consumes the most memory.

Re: [android-developers] running into an NPE error on a setText();
First, clean your project (Project Clean from Eclipse main menu, or
ant clean from the command line). Then rebuild and try again.
Sometimes, the R values get a bit out of sync with other precompiled
Java code, and cleaning the project clears that up.
If the error persists, then apparently res/layout/widgetconfig.xml
does not have a widget named @+id/userNum, which is why dataResults
would be null.

Re: [android-developers] Storing an array of floats in SD Card
You can use Float.toString to convert these values into strings so you can write them into a regular text file, one by line or using some separator (i.e. 1.13:3.1416:8:...) You can load them further and convert again to float using Float.parseFloat. If you care a lot about speed and storing space, then you will need to dump the raw array to a file using a binary steam.

[android-developers] Shared Pref data passing is not working.
right now I'm still working on the same code I posted from before I just
fixed the mentioned NPE, now the data I enter and load is not loading up
properly in another class. It saves with in the setting activity but as
soon as I call it into something else. It calls improper data into the area
I am trying to set it to. On top of all of this I'm building this as I
widget so after the Settings window is up I have to press home to get out
of it. How do I set this so it loads up the widget after I set the details
(I think this might be where the issue is coming from.). Its kinda like
burner on a stove. One ring goes out the whole burner is shot.
Either way here is the code(again)
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class Settings extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
EditText sharedData;
Context c;
TextView dataResults;
public static String filename = sharedString;
SharedPreferences someData;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.widgetconfig);
Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnwidgetconfig);
Button b1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.loadBtnWidgetConfig);
c = Settings.this;
b.setOnClickListener(this);
b1.setOnClickListener(this);
sharedData = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.etwidgitconfig);
dataResults = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.emsSetWidgetConfig);
someData = getSharedPreferences(filename, 0);
}
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
switch (v.getId()){
case R.id.btnwidgetconfig:
String stringData = sharedData.getText().toString();
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = someData.edit();
editor.putString(sharedString, stringData);
editor.commit();
break;
case R.id.loadBtnWidgetConfig:
someData = getSharedPreferences(filename, 0);
String dataReturned = someData.getString(sharedString, Can't
LoadSorry!);
dataResults.setText(dataReturned);
break;
}
}
}
And there is no error to speak of in this case... I'm just wondering how I
glue this all together...

[android-developers] What method gets called when a fatal exception occurs
This seems to be the simplest of questions, but I have not been able
to find a suitable answer on Google or this forum.
I am surprised to find that Android apparently does not call
onDestroy, onStop, or onPause after a fatal exception occurs (e. g. a
null pointer fatal exception). I have put the following code into two
activities that are around when a fatal exception occurs. None of this
code gets executed in either activity when a fatal exception occurs in
one of the activities.
public void onStop() { Log.i(JIM,CALL ONSTOP); super.onStop(); }
public void onDestroy() { Log.i(JIM,CALL ONDESTROY);
super.onDestroy(); }
public void onPause() { Log.i(JIM,CALL ONPAUSE);
super.onPause(); }
So this begs the question: What method is called that will allow me
to, for example, close the database so the database does not get
destroyed when a fatal exception occurs?

The database will not be destroyed when a fatal exception occurs.
You can wrap whatever code you want of yours in try/catch blocks for
any RuntimeExceptions that you fear. This is standard Java.
You can use setUncaughtExceptionHandler() and
setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler() on Thread to get control on an
unhandled exception. This too is standard Java.

Re: [android-developers] How to put ads in live wallpapers?
Thanks for explaining Google's opinion on this! The free version of Fireflies live wallpaper seems to have an ad solution, which works well. A transparent banner is shown at the top of the main screen for the live wallpaper. The reviews for the app are good and I don't see any complaints about the ad. I think it has been among the top40 most downloaded live wallapers. SlideME is the other big android appstore. The purchase to download rate here is almost 0%, so ad based free versions are the only solution for this appstore. One option is to have one free version without ads for Google play and and one version with ads for SlideME,but this would be time consuming. A purchase to download rate of 1% can be realistic on Google play. A company would get about 1$ if we the price is 1,5$. 100 000 free downloads each month on Google play would then be required to earn 1000$. Much less downloads would be required to get as much revenue if the free versions has ads. Could really a business model of only purchases generate as much revenue as purchases+ads? Maybe if removing the ads generated much more downloads. But there are a lot of live wallpapers with ads, which are getting lots of downloads, like Fireflies live wallpaper.

Re: [android-developers] Re: READ_LOGS permission is not granted to 3rd party applications in Jelly Bean (api 16)
While I agree that it's not a resource-friendly or good solution, it's the only one - as long as no better solution (for the various things that can be done with logs) is implemented on an SDK-level. Also, -- there's no refined access to the logs, you either get everything or nothing. isn't true - you can use a lot of switches and filters to get only what you're interested in (e.g. -I for only the Information-level logs.) If you mean this from a permissions-point of view, it could be implemented with e.g. READ_SYSTEM_LOGS, etc. for a more fine-grained access model.

Yes, I meant from the permissions point of view (since the post mainly concerned security). This is the same as any other API, you can make most permissions finer grained, but not always sensibly, as mapping APIs to permissions isn't trivial already, but it's even more hazy how to segment the system logs permission. kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] How to put ads in live wallpapers?
This isn't Google's opinion, it is my opinion. If other people have found ways to do ads that work, then great. As I said, I am not morally opposed to it, this just isn't a design goal for them. And it sounds like you see ways to do things that you think are acceptable, so what are you looking for in your original question...?

You don't need to do anything, the process will be killed but the database

still there and will be there the next time you open and need it.

[android-developers] Why suddenly no one download my app?
Hi, I launched an app few months ago, but only in the last 2 months I started to publish it a bit. In the last month I got between 5-17 downloads per day (still now a lot, but it is the start), the average was 10 downloads per day. Those statistics where pretty solid for over a month now, with constant tendency of growth (In the last month, there wasn't even 1 day with less than 5 downloads. Then, 5 days ago (The last update was 17 days ago) there was a huge decline, and I have only 0-1 downloads per day. Till now my rating is: - 5 stars - 17 - 2 stars - 1 - 1 stars - 1 I got the 2 star rating a while ago, but I got the 1 star rating 5 days ago, since then I got another two 5 stars rating Is it possible that this one review impact is so big? I know that those statistics are only about short period, so is it just coincidence? Is there something else that can impact on my application in that way? I didn't see a big impact on my place in the search result after the 1 star rating. Is there anything that I can do in order to change it? About the answer, please don't say the obvious (It is important, but I already did all of that) like: - Pay attentions to users reviews - Fix bugs when you get users reviews or logs My app is good but not perfect, as any other app, so I constantly working on improving it.

[android-developers] How to trigger the call of DataSource::DrmInitialization when playing back content using StagefrightPlayer/AwesomePlayer?
During content playback AwesomePlayer (wrapped by StagefrightPlayer) internally creates either a FileSource or ChromiumHTTPDataSource (both of them derive from DataSource). The DataSource class in StageFright has a method named DrmInitialization that can create a DrmManagerClient to interface with Drm pluging maintained by drmserver. DrmInitialization is a public method and seems to be designed to allow external caller to associate the DataSource instance with a particular Drm plugin. However when a DataSource instance is created by AwesomePlayer the player never call DataSource's DrmInitialization method. I just wonder what should be the appropriate way of triggering the call of DrmInitialization when playback a piece of Drm content using StagefrightPlayer/AwesomePlayer.

[android-developers] How To Implement A Big Memory Cache...
Hi Developers Of Android, I am trying to figure out a way to implement a in-memory cache; but its size will be relatively big by comparison with the dvm heap size. I had planned to use nio and/or Parcel class to serialize my objects then store them on the native memory; however i cannot predict the performance of reconstructing those objects from their bytes indeed. Furthermore, i couldn't have found anything useful which teaches how to use Parcel and Parcelable to do some custom serialization. I know it is for IPC in android; and i didn't find inspecting the Parcel.cpp to understand the internals of the Binder protocol so fascinating and feasible. On the other hand, I cannot make use of LRUCache class either due to the dvm heap size limit which means that i will not be able to store my java objects on the dvm heap as they are. According to the researches on the web i've made so far, the only way to exceed the dvm heap size is to tell my clients to root their devices before they install my application(or i misunderstood. If that is the case, please do correct me.) so they can modify the heap size option of their devices. I am trying to avoid NDK to implement the cache for now, since i have to pass my c/c++ instances to the java side eventually. Long story short, Would any developer mind telling me the best way to implement an in-memory cache which may penetrate dvm heap size limit and run fast as well? Or At least, if you can send me some links, pdfs, ebooks, docs, etc for me to check them out; that woul be really great!

[android-developers] CLEAR_TOP + start new activity. Hierarchy issue
I have a hierarchy consisting of 4 levels of depth. My profile has 2nd
level of hieararchy that means that pressing back while being in profile
must always return user to the 1st hierarchy level.
My problem is that link to the profile is available on all levels; so, for
instance, if a user being on the 4th level clicks on the profile link his
hierarchy position must be changed to the 2nd level - NOT to the 5th.
I suppose there must be an essential way of doing it. So far I've come up
with combination of CLEAR_TOP to the 1st level +
if(extra){startActivity(Profile)} but in this way the 1st level activity
will get recreated - right ? and that's why I want you to suggest something
better.

positioned the phone on a piece of paper and drew a line on along the

said, the lines from my app agreed with the ones from Sky Map.
I drew a N/S line using a physical compass. The lines for N S were
rotated a bit clockwise from being right angles to the N/S line. The
E/
W lines were both skewed even more clockwise from the N/S line. [Yeah,
I've calibrated the phone doing figure 8's and flipping it while
rotating it, etc.] It also appears that the sensors expect the phone
to be in camera position, i.e. left side down, because when the right
side is down all the compass points are even worse.
I'd be curious to see if other phones get similar results.

[android-developers] Is the Google Now text to speech engine available to the rest of us?
One of my absolute favorite features of Jelly Bean is Google's new text to speech engine inside Google Now. At first I was under the impression that the voice only sounded so good because it was prerecorded to match the limited set of Google Now commands (The weather today is...) with arbitrary words filled in by a more versatile yet less capable engine. However, I was surprised to find that Google Now is equally capable of handling arbitrary word definitions. Which there are simply too many to prerecord. For the most part, Google Now appears to have a fully featured text to speech engine. Unfortunately, I was saddened to find that the actual text to speech engine available on Jelly Bean devices (while a significant improvement over previous iterations) is not the Google Now voice. I recall reading an article describing Jelly Bean as having two forms of text to speech. A more capable online version (the Google Now voice) and a less capable offline engine (the standard engine). This is apparently the case. So far I've found that any apps making calls to the device's text to speech engine return only the default voice, not the Google Now voice. I would be absolutely thrilled if someone found a way to build apps capable of using Google Now's online voice engine. Or at the very least, force Google Now to read arbitrary text. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Does this licensing policy have weaknesses?
I asked a version of the following on StackOverflowhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/11693100/would-this-google-play-licensing-policy-be-safe-to-useand received only one response, which was off-point. The default ServerManagedPolicy that Google provides in their License Verification Libraryhttp://developer.android.com/guide/google/play/licensing/adding-licensing.html relies on the server responses to determine the license revalidation interval. This results in requiring a revalidation every few days, apparently in perpetuity. This is not only a nuisance to users, it can be a serious problem for users who go extended periods with no connectivity. (We just had an inquiry from a user who expects to be without Internet connectivity for several weeks, which is what motivates this question.) In summary, I'm looking for an algorithm that will accomplish two things: 1) drastically reduce the connectivity requirements compared to ServerManagedPolicy; 2) provide the same level of anti-piracy protection. In an answer to this other questionhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/5433036/what-is-a-reasonable-licensing-policy-using-android-market-licensing, the suggested policy algorithm is to ignore the times provided in the response from Google's server and instead to use a grace period of about a month, with license checks being attempted every few days (to extend the grace period if a LICENSED response is received). While this approach partially addresses the first goal, it still requires users to be connected once a month while using the app, so it would not work for (at least one of) our users. The following algorithm accomplishes the first goal, but I don't know about the second. Any comments pointing out weaknesses of this algorithm, or suggestions for another approach, would be welcome. 1. On first run, do a license check and insist on a LICENSED response before providing full functionality. Once received, set a relatively short expiration period (but longer than the refund period that Google Play provides, currently 15 minutes). Also register a grace period of a few days beyond that. 2. The app would start checking again after the license expiration period. If it failed to connect (airplane mode, etc.), it would still function until the expiration of the grace period. 3. After expiration of the grace period, insist on a second LICENSED response before allowing normal app functioning. 4. After receiving a second LICENSED response (whether before or after expiration of the grace period), permanently enable all features of the app and never bother checking again. 5. If an UNLICENSED response is received, permanently disable full functionality. (The user can revert to step 1 by deleting all app data.) Additional points: - A suggestion was made to forgo the first license check and simply wait until the expiration of the return period before checking. The purpose of insisting on the first LICENSED response is to prevent the exploit where, after a license check fails, the user simply stops the app process, clears the app data, and restarts the app. (The app provides value even if usable for only 15 minutes at a time.) - The purpose of insisting on a second LICENSED response is to get around the buy-run-backup-return-restore exploit. - I'm not asking whether call-back license checking is a good idea or not. I'm also well aware that no anti-piracy protection is foolproof and Google's entire licensing mechanism can be circumvented (in which case all questions about design of a policy algorithm are irrelevant). The main point of this question is the relative risks (to us) and benefits (to the user) of the above algorithm *as compared to other policies* (such as the ServerManagedPolicy). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Programatically changing the screen brightness
I'm now for sure 99% of the way complete on my code... I need to know one
last thing. How do I programatically dim the of the android.
I have tried making a set of intent groups. One loads the code for the
dimmer then intents into the actual program and that runs with little issue
other then the screen did not dim after the screen flipped over.
Here is the code I am using:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Settings;
import android.view.WindowManager;
public class bright extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Settings.System.putInt(this.getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS, 20);
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes();
lp.screenBrightness =0.0f;// 100 / 100.0f;
getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
Intent i = new Intent(this, gateBridge.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
}
Since I know brightness settings can only be used after the screen has been
reset or changed.
So the question, how do I get this done?

[android-developers] Re: Does this licensing policy have weaknesses?
The thing is that regardless how complex your policy is, if your app is popular, it will be cracked no matter what at the LVL level. My advice is to use a forgiving policy like the LenientPolicy that deny access to the app only if it is 100% sure that the app is unlicensed (eg: Google Play returns NOT_LICENSED). Otherwise (market failure, no network connectivity), is is licensed: http://www.mail-archive.com/android-developers@googlegroups.com/msg107037.html You can protect this policy or another policy of your choosing with inventive ways to CRC-check the APK in multiple places in the code, much more difficult to find for crackers. And do not forget string obfuscation for sensitive strings in the process. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Much less downloads would be required to get as much revenue if the free versions has ads. Could really a business model of only purchases generate as much revenue as purchases+ads?

Try this: application android:largeHeap=true On Sunday, July 29, 2012 4:11:55 AM UTC-5, Dmitriy F wrote: I've written a simple test where I have: FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager(); FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction(); ft.hide(_sv); ft.commit(); When the fragment gets hidden - onPause doesn't get fired. However, system fires a chain of callbacks up to onDestroyView when I use a replace method. So, I guess, I should be performing memory-recycling operations in onDestroyView method. I've also noticed that when I hide the ViewPager component with setVisibility(GONE) its' fragments dont fire onPause callback. Is there any workaround to tell all the fragments inside the ViewPager to clean themselves with onDestroyView ? I still think I should use fragments since in a Tablet version those pages are implemented as tabs. Thanks again and I was wondering whether you could point out or give some links on implementing the memory management process. I have a lousy knoweledge about WeakReferences, recycle(), System.gc() features but I guess they are somewhat mutually-excluding. Probably, I should stick to Weak/Soft references approach, should I ? If so - could you share some insights/give link on the whole process of instantiating bitmap down to the recycling.

(If you are manually loading bitmaps in the fragment, in onDestroyView() you can clear the references there.) Of course this means a bit more overhead when the user returns to the fragment, since its view hierarchy needs to be re-inflated and initialized again. But it won't be any worse than the first time the user visited it, and you need that to be fast as well. It is true that FragmentTransaction.hide() does not remove and the destroy the fragment's view hierarchy, just doing View.setVisibility(). But that is not all -- it takes care of managing the fragment lifecycle so that fragment will be paused and stopped (since it is no longer visible). You can implement the lifecycle to free up resources if you need to. This will also result in them being freed when the entire activity is stopped, which is probably what you want as well. You shouldn't be directly hiding the view associated with a fragment. That is what FragmentTransaction.hide/show() is for. There is no need to directly hide the view owned by it, and doing so means that you are letting the correct fragment semantics execute. (And for what it's worth, if you have no reason to use fragments with ViewPager, there is nothing forcing you to -- you can write your own adapter that directly manages raw views and doesn't use fragments at all.)

I decided to implement the app with 3 activities and about 8 fragments. The fragment number might slightly increase yet I think it's not the fragments but their bitmaps that gonna cause troubles with memory. For displaying the fragments I have two containers: a ViewPager(rotates 3-4 fragments) element and a FrameLayout(displays strictly one fragment) element. Right now I'm simply hiding one type of container and showing another - setVisibility or fragmentTransaction.hide (I haven't figured out what is the difference between these two apart from the latest gives an ability of adding to activity's backstack). Is their any better way of switching between the containers ? Additionally, even if those fragments might not hold much memory by themselves - should I wrap those objects with SoftReference ? Could you tell any precautions/advices for implementing an app with such structure ? Thanks.

I don't quite understand your question. When a Bitmap is loaded as a Drawable (which is what ImageView does), it gets cached by the system (using weak references.) This means that if do this: Drawable d1 = loadDrawable(R.drawable.**myImage); Drawable d2 = loadDrawable(R.drawable.**myImage); you will get 2 different instances of Drawable, but the underlying Bitmap will be loaded in memory only once. 2) same as 1. but for BitmapFactory.decodeResource Every time you call this method you will load a new instance
[android-developers] How to hide apps in the launcher?
Hi All, In some of the launchers, there is an option to hide apps from the launcher. Any idea how this can be done? I want to hide other apps while my apps is running. Is this possible? Is there any other method to do this? Thanks In Advance, Perumal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] How to hide apps in the launcher?
Why do you want to do this? Because it's not your decision, it's theirs. I'd be interested to hear an explanation as to why you want to hide your app, I'd be interested to hear ones that aren't my app is malware. I actually can think of an example: when you have something like an app that provides services to other apps you distribute (even though this in itself might not be the most kosher design), but you can still make a frontend, in this case. kris On Sun, Jul 29, 2012 at 9:21 PM, perumal316 perumal...@gmail.com wrote: Hi All, In some of the launchers, there is an option to hide apps from the launcher.

Re: [android-developers] How to hide apps in the launcher?
You may need to create a Home Screen Launcher experience for yourself.creating a front-end interface as suggested by Kristopher..though its not the best design, but you may have your own reasons or client req, we understand.

[android-developers] Requesting Gmail atom feed with auth token from AccountManager
I am trying to authenticate with the Gmail atom feed using the authentication token of the Gmail account, obtained from AccountManager. I have no problem pulling the authentication token for a Google Account registered on the device, using AccountManagergetAuthToken() with the authTokenType mail, but the authentication token does not register with the atom feed. I've played with a few variations, but all I get is a 401 / Unauthorized response from Google. Basically, I've tried to GET https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/unread adding in a Authorization header item with Bearer authentication token, but that didn't work. Any ideas where the disconnect is? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
