For example, typing 321 launches my application.

Thanks

Mark,

Sorry, I meant the key sequence would launch my activity. Can you
elaborate on what it would take?

Thanks in advance!

 Only from one of your own activities, and then only with some work.

So I would need to write an activity that listens for a certain key
sequence and then launches a second activity?

 Again, it would only work if you are trying to launch Activity B from
 Activity A, where you wrote both B and A.

 The precise techniques will vary based on what Activity A is doing, but
 you'll want to look at onKeyDown() and onKeyUp() in Activity.

[android-developers] Privacy concerns using Android NETWORK_PROVIDER?

2009-12-04 Thread BillS
I know when Google's Maps for mobile with My Location came out that
Google was secretly obtaining the location of its users to create
its tower database. I'm wondering if that is still the case when using
Android's network location provider to obtain location information
when GPS is not available?

Thanks in advance!
BillS
