[android-developers] What's the best place to find Android Developers willing to participate in a Startup?
I'm looking for someone that would like to build an Android product together with me, and bring that product on the market. What would be the best place to look for Android Developers that also have affinity in entrepreneurship? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Battery usage feature request
Hi, The battery usage stats in Android are great, but it would be even more usefull if I would be able to see the average battery usage an hour for each app. Now you can use an app the whole day and for example use 30% of your battery. If you call for half an hour and use 20% of your battery, it looks like the app you used the whole day is less battery efficient than calling. So it would be very usefull to have an average battery usage an hour for each app added to the battery usage stats. This would help finding what drains your battery the fastest. Thanks for looking at this request! Bart Tiemersma -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Racoon is not initiating a connection with x509 L2TP/IPSec
Hello all,
I am trying to setup a VPN connection on Android v2.2.2. I am
currently unable to connect to my VPN server.
The VPN server is Openswan which is running with xl2tpd. I am using X.
509 certificates to identify clients.
Android does not seem to initiate a connection to the VPN server, the
logs on the server show no entries of any clients connecting. This
setup works on my telephone when running windows mobile 6.5, or when
connecting with computers running windows or OSX.
The logs from android show that racoon is not able to create a key
socket.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction to solve this
problem?
Greetings,
Bart

[android-developers] Propagating exception caught in GL render thread
I searched but could not find info about this: Situation: 1. GL used + Looping sounds (soundpool) 2. want to prevent leaving user to reboot to get rid of looping sound in case of app error. In onDrawFrame, a try-catch block catches exceptions, and stops the sounds. So-far, so-good. But: cant rethrow exception (cant change GLSurfaceView.Renderer prototype). Therefore, can't propagate exception to OS, disabling the ability to get stack traces from users by means of the developer console. Result: sound stops, but UI thread happily runs (and depending on the exception the render thread as well). This is a serious issue: either I cant get stacktraces, or leave users of the app with looping sounds which ia (a) annoying to reboot, (b) drains battery. Anyone know a way around this (besides not getting exceptions...). Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Text in a circle that rotates on touch
Thanks alot. I sort of had it working yesterday, but I think my math
was a little off, which caused some strange behavior. So I will try
your code.

I've done this, and as mentioned, Canvas.translate and canvas.rotate
are the way to go.
If you are just using a hold and drag, you wouldn't have to worry so
much about angular velocity. Code like this would work:
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e) {
float x = e.getX();
float y = e.getY();
switch (e.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
//find an approximate angle between them.
float dx = x-cx;
float dy = y-cy;
double a=Math.atan2(dy,dx);
float dpx= mPreviousX-cx;
float dpy= mPreviousY-cy;
double b=Math.atan2(dpy, dpx);
double diff = a-b;
this.bearing -= Math.toDegrees(diff);
this.invalidate();
}
mPreviousX = x;
mPreviousY = y;
return true;
}

[android-developers] Re: Text in a circle that rotates on touch
I tested it and it works like a charm :) I only had to change the -= in this.bearing -= Math.toDegrees(diff) to +=, otherwise the rotation was inverted. How do you do the rotation exactly? If I just draw the text onto the canvas in onDraw(Canvas canvas), and then call canvas.rotate, then nothing seems to happen. But if i do canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, matrix,paint) where matrix is a rotation matrix, then it does work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] FaceDetector class
Hi, I want to use the FaceDetector class, which also has a pose function for the headpose, but it seems that the head pose is not implemented because it always returns 0. It does return the distance between the eyes, and the point between the two eyes, so im guessing that at some point in the face detection, the coordinates of the eyes are known. So i'm now checking out the source code to see if i can output the eye coordinates myself, but it seems that the actual face detection is done by calling a seperate function called ff_detect for which i cannot find any code. Do you guys know how i can get this code, or how i can get the head pose otherwise?

I am just wondering ( please i am a total newbie in sound) when I fill always a buffer like above... how long is that sound?? That depends on how many samples you write. The AudioTrack object plays samples at a certain rate, for example 22050 Hz. To create a 1 second tone, you would thus have to write 22050 samples. I am not familiar with android's AudioTrack interface, but I'm sure the reference manual will help you there. I suppose when you call play () it will start playing as soon as you write enough data to it with write(). So you can generate the tone while it's playing. It's not a completely trivial subject as you have to get into how digital audio actually works, so if you're completely new to that you might want to try to find some kind of library to help you out. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

The problem is that renvoi_liste_recette_xml() throws an Exception (you shouldn't do this - either make it more specific or catch the exception within the method) and the initialization section of your Activity cannot handle this, because the constructor of Activity doesn't throw Exception. Move the initialization of your member variables to (a try/catch block within) the onCreate callback.

You will have to create the wave data yourself using a sine-function. Fill a buffer of shorts (for 16 bit audio) with something like this: buffer[i] = (short) (Math.sin(((double) i / samplerate) * f) * Short.MAX_VALUE); (please correct me if I'm wrong) If you need a 5 seconds tone, I suppose you could just fill a buffer of size 5 * samplerate, but you could also try something smart with a loop and repeatedly feed the same buffer to the AudioTrack object.

[android-developers] Parcel/unparcel Bundle classloader bug?
I have a parcelable class whose writeToParcel() method puts some data
in a Bundle and writes it to the parcel.
This parcel gets sent from a client process to a service process.
At the side of the service, the readFromparcel() method tries to read
this Bundle from the parcel. A strange thing happens here.
First of all, I got a ClassNotFoundException for one of the objects
inside the Bundle. I fixed this by using readBundle(this.getClass
().getClassloader()) to force it to use the application's
classloader.
After this, I no longer got the ClassNotFoundException, but I did get
a different bundle, containing only the following entry:
mParcelledData.dataSize=376
This is not what's supposed to be in the bundle.
In the sourcecode Parcel.java I see this, in the readBundle
(Classloader) method:
final Bundle bundle = new Bundle(this, length);
if (loader != null) {
bundle.setClassLoader(loader);
}
So the classloader is set after reading the bundle, instead of before.
Shouldn't that be the other way around?

[android-developers] sending / receiving custom broadcast intent
I'm building a service that sends a broadcast intent when some value
changes.
The service sends the broadcast like this:
Intent broadcastIntent = new Intent();
broadcastIntent.setAction(nl.vu.contextframework.NEWREADING);
broadcastIntent.setData(Uri.parse(context://+cer.getKey()));
broadcastIntent.putExtra(reading,cer);
broadcastIntent.addCategory(nl.vu.contextframework.CONTEXT);
sendBroadcast(broadcastIntent);
In some Activity (in a different process), I'm tryint to receive this
broadcast as follows:
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addDataScheme(context);
intentFilter.addCategory(CATEGORY_CONTEXT);
registerReceiver(new BroadcastReceiver() {
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.d(TAG,Received intent +intent);
}
}, intentFilter);
The intent is never received though. What am I doing wrong? Does my
intentfilter not match the intent?

In theory that should work, though I haven't tried it myself.
I take an Occam's Razor approach to intents and filters: they should be as
simple as possible, but no simpler.
In your case, unless you are creating a content provider, I don't know the
value of your inventing schemes and using setData(). Just put the values
you need in the extras and filter on your action.
I'm using the data because it allows me to receive only updates to
specific keys by including them in the IntentFilter. Many of these
intents may be fired and different applications may want to filter
most of them out.
Anyway, just to see if it helps, I tried not using the data and
putting everything in the extras:
Intent broadcastIntent = new Intent();
broadcastIntent.setAction(nl.vu.contextframework.NEWREADING);
broadcastIntent.putExtra(reading,cer);
broadcastIntent.putExtra(key, cer.getKey());
broadcastIntent.addCategory(nl.vu.contextframework.CONTEXT);
sendBroadcast(broadcastIntent);
and in the activity:
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addCategory(CATEGORY_CONTEXT);
registerReceiver(new BroadcastReceiver() {
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.d(TAG,Received intent +intent);
}

I thought that 'default' meant the classloader for my app. That all side, a possibly larger question is... do you need to do this at all? If the service is not explicitly running in its own process but just in the normal same process as the rest of the app, there is no reason to use aidl at all. If it has been set up to run in another process, is there really a good reason to do this instead of just using the much simpler (and usually more efficient) approach of running locally? It's necessary, because it is a service that communicates with a number of applications simultaneously. Also note that passing this tree is not something that needs to be done a lot of times, usually just once for an application, so it's not really an issue if it's an expensive operation. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

2. Use a generic Parcelable class type, in which case the marshalling code will inspect the class type, included that in the marshalled data, and use that to re-construct it on the other side. I don't understand this. My program deals with Condition objects, which can be put in a list to specify a series of search conditions. There are specific classes like StringCondition, TimeCondition, LocationCondition, etc. They are all subclasses of Condition, but they all have their specific sets of fields. A list of those has to be passed to a service. Now how would I use a generic Parcelable class for this?

getOrCreatePool(poolid).getOrCreate(collabId).myMethod(...);
Do you know how expensive is it to keep another connection object

in every RPC call?
I chose this design since the expectation is 0-1 bindings to a single
pool and, depending on the activity, one-few bindings to one of those
collaboration objects per activity. You could compare the basic
structure to the more traditional content (provider) based apps that
work with a list of items (pool), and specific item (collab
thing). Not all activities will need a binding to the pool, or more
then one collab object.
Also, if you bind to a binder linked to a specific pool/collabobject,
you can do easy refcounting allowing for dynamic destruction of the
server object trees, else I think you'll have to force the client app
to not only unbind the service, but also remove their references. This
might not be an real point though, just more bookkeeping.

There was also some problem with libraries checking the java runtime version (System.getProperty(java.version)) which is 0 in Dalvik for some unknown reason. I have also looked at BeanShell, but I think this is not really suitable because it is a full blown scripting engine (which leads to some security issues in this case) and all I need is evaluation of simple expressions.
