 The app is composed of a number of activities, some from third-party sw
 libs (ex: AdActivity of google, facebook login activity an so on). The most
 important ones are
 1. splash screen activity (launcher)
 2. main app activity

 The SplashScreen activity has this intent:

 intent-filter
   action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
   category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
 /intent-filter

 while the main app activity has this:


 intent-filter
 action android:name=android.intent.action.VIEW /
 action android:name=android.intent.action.EDIT /
 action android:name=android.intent.action.SEND /
 category android:name=android.intent.category.DEFAULT /
 data android:mimeType=image/* /
 /intent-filter

 because it can receive images.

 The SplashScreen view is made of a relative layout with an image as a
 drawable and three textview that each show some text (version, app name and
 so on).
 The drawable is a .png file of 960x640 (xhdpi).

 I launched the app touching the icon (not by sharing an image with it: in
 that case only the main app would be started and not the splash screen
 activity) and it crashed.
 I have absolutely no idea of what happened, but it seems to me that the
 splash screen activity did not start at all.
 Any idea?

Re: [android-developers] return object or listobject

It would be my opinion that you return a Object if you do not intend to
return any more than one of them.  Else it may become confusing reading
your code later.

Damien

 Which is better to implement for the method:
 1. Is it better to have the method return an object.
 2. Or return ListObject where the single object is added to the array
 list.

 because, we can check for list.isEmpty() which is better than
 object!=null. not sure which one is better.

[android-developers] Problem with actionbar/overflow bar when phone has soft navigation keys

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,
Probably a really dumb question but I have looked around for a solution and can 
not seem to find one.  See the image in the link it shows the problem, but to 
verbalise it, I have found on phones with soft navigation keys an unwanted 
navigation overflow bar is created, dispite the Actionbar being supressed and I 
am not sure how to remove it.  If anyone could steer me in the right direction 
I would greatly appreciate it.

Regards
Damien

[android-developers] Re: Is it possible to set imeOption area disable/enable on soft keyboard?

[Damien Cooke]

Something like this may work for you?

Whenever key is pressed while firstNameEditText has focus, it will check 
the length of the string and if  0 will enable the surnameEditText else it 
will be disabled you should initialise it disabled.

Damien

firstNameEditText.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener()
{
@Overridepublic boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if(firstNameEditText.getText().toString().length()  0)
{
surnameEditText.setEnabled(true);}else{
surnameEditText.setEnabled(false);}
}
});

The Play Store has a beta feature or probably best described as a beta

 In your receiver, call startActivity.

 However, I would recommend showing a notification instead. Arbitrarily
 starting an application without knowing what the user is in the middle of
 is a good way to get 1-star ratings and uninstalled.

[android-developers] Layout issues

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,

I am having a problem with layouts.  I am sure I have just missed something 
stupid but if someone could point me in the right direction I would really 
appreciate it.


I have build a navigation system which works very well for my application, 

I have a scrolling tabBar which is a set of buttons inside a horizontal 
scrollView.  When one of the buttons is hit I load a new Layout into the 
frameView.

So the idea is I have a LinearLayout which contains a FrameLayout and a 
horozontalScrollView.

Pretty simple, and worked fine while I gave the frameLayout a specific size.  
Now I want to support multiple device sizes I am having all sorts of issues.  I 
used patch9s to sort out the graphics but if I pop a layout like this:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:background=@android:color/black
android:orientation=vertical
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent

ListView
android:id= @android:id/android:list
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent/
/LinearLayout


Into my frame and I loose some of the rows ie they are there but are outside of 
the scrollable area.  In iOS I would alter the contentSize but I can find no 
way of doing that.

My Tab controller adds the views like this

private FrameLayout frame;
private LocalActivityManager manager;

...

frame = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.tab_content_frame);

if(manager == null)
{
manager = getLocalActivityManager();
}


Intent preloader = new Intent(this,SSDEventsActivity.class);
View childView = manager.startActivity(preloader.getAction(),
preloader.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP)).getDecorView();

frame.removeAllViews();
frame.addView(childView); 


Here is the layout in question:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout
  xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
  android:orientation=vertical
  android:layout_width=match_parent
  android:layout_height=match_parent
  android:gravity=bottom
  
   
 FrameLayout
android:id=@+id/tab_content_frame
android:orientation=vertical
android:layout_height=fill_parent = if I set this it to a number it 
all works but looks awful on all but the one size.
android:layout_width=fill_parent

[android-developers] 401 when trying to send GCM message to registered device

[Damien Cooke]

Hi all,
I am having some difficulties with GCM for android.  


Here is what I am sending:

I am using Glassfish as my appserver.

{collapse_key:AIzaSyADq3b8Tm-NZiImXGy8ngdsXXX,data:{type:CR,msg:Hello
 
world},registration_ids:[APA91bE_oaTf0xHkphMVlMwmviwAn6Nefnd1R36W9wDO29T7p7yJ_W0S9x7MhfMWeL6yCfrvI3r_VdUJnmsZUUzvKeeDUWLSSZHf4YW91SU8yShBo8KOaeS1A20mQn_WEAqwzC9vQhFk8uM_tTq_B_THXXX]}

I have used the key for browser apps as the collapse key

Has anyone got any idea why I might be getting a 401?

Damien

Not sure what you are trying to benchmark, but if it is network based, you 
should look at FABAN written by some bright people at Sun a few years ago.

Re: [android-developers] How to 'delete' allocated class by 'new'??

[Damien Cooke]

Hi Build Account,

Java, the language that Android is programmed in, is garbage collected.  So all 
you need to do is let the run time know you are finished with the object you 
created.

for example:

//create the object
String language = new String(Java);

//use the Object
Log.i(TEST, Language used is: +language);

//destroy the object
language = null;

regards
Damien

Drezden,
Thanks for your assistance.  It is greatly appreciated.

 I have an app in the market right now that uses a custom designed tab
 bar at the bottom of the screen and a relative layout at the top that
 acts as an iframe, so this is very doable.  In my app I used the
 LocalActivityManager to load the requested activity and then extract
 it's main layout, like this:
 
 [code]
 
 LocalActivityManager manager = getLocalActivityManager();
 
 Intent preloader = new Intent(com.pkg.Foo);
 View childView = manager.startActivity(preloader.getAction(),
 preloader.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP)).getDecorView();
 
 frame.removeAllViews();
 frame.addView(childView);
 
 [/code]
 
 Each of the buttons in the tab bar calls to a loading function with
 the requested Activity name and options like ViewFlipper index or
 other startup options.  After you add the childView to the frame, you
 can also do something like this to animate in the view.
 
 [code]
 
 childView.startAnimation(slideLeftAnimation);
 
 [/code]
 
 The only problem with this approach is that LocalActivityManager has
 been deprecated as if this month in favor of Fragments and the
 FragmentManager.  So you might want to look into both options and see
 what works best for your users and app needs.  If you look at the
 demos over at android.com there is a tab example using Fragments.

Hi! I am starting to work with Android and SQLite and I have some

problem is that I am not really sure of how to do it with the maximum
performance.

I don't want to download the whole database because it would be too
big, I've thought of placing an xml file in the server with the
registers that have changed and the new values to download it and
parse it on the phone generating SQL queries to update, delete or
insert.

Another approach woul be updating the app but I think this would be
slower as it would download the whole database.


Any ideas?

[android-developers] Cursor.getString() truncating Strings issue update

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,
I have an app that stores it's local data in a database,  The database has a 
TEXT field called description that on some rows is truncated on retrieval. I 
have checked the database by running it app in the emulator and grabbing the 
database and checking the contents.  So I know the data is there.  I retrieve 
it using:


public Cursor getAdditiveByRowID(long rowId) throws SQLException 
{
Cursor mCursor =
db.query(true, Additives.DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {
Additives.KEY_ROWID, 
Additives.KEY_IDENTIFIER,
Additives.KEY_NAME,
Additives.KEY_TYPE,
Additives.KEY_DESCRIPTION,
Additives.KEY_ACKNOWLEDGEMENT,
Additives.KEY_WARNING
}, 
Additives.KEY_ROWID + = + rowId, 
null,
null, 
null, 
null, 
null);
if (mCursor != null) {
mCursor.moveToFirst();
}

return mCursor;
}



When I use it the code looks like this:

if (cursor.moveToPosition(position))
{   

Log.i(TAG,contents from cursor = 
+cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));

..

record.setDescription(cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));
..
}

I checked the output and it appears to be truncating the output at various 
stages (one it is 1980 chars before truncating and another it is 257 chars) 
with some rows only.  I checked for bad chars but as I thought, it was fine 
(the same database is used in my iPhone app with no problems) So it must be 
something I am doing.  But I can not see where as it is wrong as soon as it 
comes from the database.  Any assistance or advice to debug this would be more 
than helpful.

I have also checked the length (Thanks Frank) incase logcat is truncating the 
strings and found this is not the issue.  It reports the length that is 
printed.  I am stumped.  I assume that others have extracted large strings from 
sqlite under android as I have some rows which are larger than the ones being 
truncated that return all the data as they should.

Regards
Damien

[android-developers] Cursor.getString() truncating Strings issue

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,
I have an app that stores it's local data in a database,  The database has a 
TEXT field called description that on some rows is truncated on retrieval. I 
have checked the database by running it app in the emulator and grabbing the 
database and checking the contents.  So I know the data is there.  I retrieve 
it using:


public Cursor getAdditiveByRowID(long rowId) throws SQLException 
{
Cursor mCursor =
db.query(true, Additives.DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {
Additives.KEY_ROWID, 
Additives.KEY_IDENTIFIER,
Additives.KEY_NAME,
Additives.KEY_TYPE,
Additives.KEY_DESCRIPTION,
Additives.KEY_ACKNOWLEDGEMENT,
Additives.KEY_WARNING
}, 
Additives.KEY_ROWID + = + rowId, 
null,
null, 
null, 
null, 
null);
if (mCursor != null) {
mCursor.moveToFirst();
}

return mCursor;
}



When I use it the code looks like this:

if (cursor.moveToPosition(position))
{   

Log.i(TAG,contents from cursor = 
+cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));

..

record.setDescription(cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));
..
}

I checked the output and it appears to be truncating the output at various 
stages (one it is 1980 chars before truncating and another it is 257 chars) 
with some rows only.  I checked for bad chars but as I thought it was fine (the 
same database is used in my iPhone app with no problems) So it must be 
something I am doing.  But I can not see where as it is wrong as soon as it 
comes from the database.  Any assistance or advice to debug this would be more 
than helpful.

[android-developers] Developing for Galaxy Tab

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,
I am interested in providing graphic images for an application I have written 
for Android 2.1.  My issue is I can use the screen size to specify the galaxy 
in 2.2 but what do I do in 2.1.  Stretching seems like a dumb idea to me, if 
you have a high resolution device you don't want to stretch the assets to make 
it look warped or fuzzy.  Can I use the large screen folder in 2.1 or will it 
just laugh at me?

I am really keen to provide assets for each supported device size.

Any help would be appreciated.

Damien

[android-developers] Notification assistance.

[Damien Cooke]

Hi All,
I am crossing from iOS to Android development and am after a small amount of 
help with a concept.  In ios I can post notifications that can be listed for by 
other objects.  These are not seen by the user, they are totally internal to 
the application.  Is this type of systemic messaging available or do I need to 
more closely couple my classes?  or even completely rethink my design?

Thanks and sorry for the dumb question
Damien
