 I can't speak with any authority, obviously, and I wouldn't consider a
 donation a fee (that's for the lawyers to decide), but given the reason
 you posted and your comment, I would expect this to be the problem. Pushing
 the update probably triggered a review (possibly random?) and Lord Google™
 was not pleased that you are getting dollar bills yo without making your
 contribution to them.

 You should probably switch that out with IAP.

 Good luck.

Only one activity use the MAIN and LAUNCHER intents in the manifest, however
several use the DEFAULT intend, could this cause the problem?

 I don't think you would have any trouble with Proguard unless you are

 activities that want to handle MAIN and LAUNCHER intents without
 sorting that out properly.

[android-developers] Re: Strange behavior after signing build with release keystore

2011-07-29 Thread Donal Rafferty

EDIT: More info:

The application currently works like this:

Main activity is launched which then calls the login activity, login
activity then moves to my app core activity.

I have also discovered that it appears to be on the first run after install
that I have the issue, if I run the app, force close it and then run it
again it then runs perfectly without any issue.

So it seems to be something really strange?

 return to my application it returns to the last position (Activity)
 the application was in.

 However when I release sign a build and deploy it on the device it has
 different behavior,after going through the login screen when I press

 appears.

 Code is identical in both builds, only difference is one is signed
 with the default debug keystore while the other is signed with my own
 release keystore.

 Has anyone come across this? Its really confusing!

Everything is identical apart from that, if I try to run an unsigned apk

flag?

On Fri, Jul 29, 2011 at 9:23 PM, Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com wrote:

 I doubt it's due to the signature.

 However, Eclipse launches applications slightly differently from how the
 launcher does it.

 The launcher's intent is like this:

 Intent intent = new Intent(context, activity.class);
 intent .addFlags(Intent.FLAG_**ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
 intent .addFlags(Intent.FLAG_**ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED)**;
 intent .setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN)**;
 intent .addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_**LAUNCHER);

 While Eclipse, I believe, omits FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_**NEEDED.

Re: [android-developers] Google removed 10 mallware apps - I'm affected. Please help

2011-06-14 Thread Donal Rafferty

I'm assuming your using some sort of code hacks to get the LED to work on
some devices? Maybe some expose some potential security leaks to malware?
Maybe your doing something that Google don't approve of? Some applications
on the market aren't actually malware but use security loops to do what they
want to do, last I read Google were removing these, maybe your app falls
under that category?

On Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 9:57 AM, n.a devuni...@gmail.com wrote:

Hello Guys and Google,
I'm the developer of the most popular flashlight application on the
Android Market - Tiny Flashlight + LED (over 6.5 million downloads,
top 50 in the overall applications ranking).

Today I found that Google have deleted my developer account without
any notice and removed Tiny Flashlight from the market. I saw the news
that Google removed 10 malware apps from the Android Market (

http://phandroid.com/2011/06/14/google-removes-10-new-malware-apps-from-the-android-market/
) and decided to write you.

Seems like I've been affected by this and I hope this will be resolved
soon, because I have invested a lot in Tiny Flashlight. For the one
year since Tiny Flashlight has been released, I've managed to create
one of the best android applications on the market. Although a
flashlight application seems easy to create, it's actually quite hard
on android, because the different hardware vendors have different
camera drivers and this requires a lot of workarounds just to start
the camera led / flash. This takes a lot of time and investment. In
the last 4 months alone I had to buy over 20 different android
devices, spend huge amounts of time finding a way to start the led on
these devices and making the whole process trouble-free for the user.
I've also gone a step further. Tiny Flashlight is one of the few
applications, which supports all android versions on the market - 1.5,
1.6, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 3.0, and 3.1. It's the only flashlight
application, which still works on Motorola Quench / i1 / Backflip (all
Android 1.5).

Tiny Flashlight has become my primary source of income and the
investment I've made is huge. Every single line of code has been
written by me (except the Admob, Millennial Media, and Flurry SDKs,
but I think they are respectable companies and would never allow any
malware in their distributed SDKs).

I just can not afford to make the tiniest mistake with Tiny
Flashlight, because it's one of the top applications on the market and
I have over 4 million active users and I've invested my life into
this.

I’m angry that Google never contacted me. They just deleted the whole
account. I hope that they will fix it soon, before I lose my users and
ranking position.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Eclipse wont regenerate files since downloading the 2.3 SDK

2011-03-15 Thread Donal Rafferty

Bit of an update on this, I'm still stuck on it and have noticed some
curious issues.

My project was started back in 1.5 SDK so my resources only had the one
drawables folder so I created the three -mdpi,-ldpi, -hdpi folders and put
my drawables in -mdpi.

I was hoping this would be it but it wasn't R.java still wont regenerate.

Is there anything I need in my manifest for the new folders or anything that
needs to be changed like that for the new project setup?

Also I've noticed if I create a new project and copy over just my Resources
and build the R.java file generates fine and I can then copy it back into my
proper project and it works by just matching up the package.
However if I create a new project and add the resources and then also my
source files then R.java wont generate and neither will any of my .aidl
files.

Which seems really strange to me, has anyone got any ideas taking into
account the new info as to what could be happening?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Eclipse wont regenerate files since downloading the 2.3 SDK

2011-03-10 Thread Donal Rafferty

Ok, I've tried everything and this is eating up far too much development
time, Is there anyone with a proper solution to this? I have SDK 2.3 and the
latest ADT on 3 different machines now and R.java wont rengenrate on any of
them so someone else has to have the exact same problem and a solution?

If not is there a way to go back to the 2.2 SDK and previous ADT?

 Have you tried using the 'android' -- Fix this application from the

 Also, I had R.Id.buttonX returning a TextEdit for awhile... I solved
 that by deleting the elements from the UI file and then saving and re-
 adding...

 I'm assuming you've cleaned, closed and reopened eclipse and all the
 usual suspects.

 When I use the folowing to turn the Loudspeaker on it works fine:

 audioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(true);

 But when I try the opposite to turn it off:

 audioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(false);

 The Loudspeaker stays on and audio is played via that instead of the
 ear piece on the device.

 The above works on the Nexus One and HTC Hero, just got a Samsung

2010-10-22 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks letlite,

However I want to be able to display the numeric keypad without having it
input to an EditText so I cant use addTextChangedListener(TextWatcher)

So I want the user to be able to click a button on my UI, the keypad pops up
in numeric form and then I want to be able to listen to what they press on

[android-developers] Re: Display a numeric keypad on activity without an input area

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)

 This displays the alphabetic keyboard.

 But I want to display the numeric keyboard.

 Please note I know that using setInputType() works when used with an
 Edittext or a TextView but I want to be able to display the keyboard
 without an input area such as an EditText and simply listen to the key
 presses on the keyboard.

 Can anyone confirm whether this is possible and if so how can it be
 achieved?

Re: [android-developers] Unusual Android Error

2010-10-12 Thread Donal Rafferty

Hi Mark,

There are two things I do in onCreate that may be the cause.

Firstly I retrive some data from a Content Provider as follows:

 ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
Cursor c = null;
try{
c = cr.query(MySettings.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
}
catch(RuntimeException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
   try{
if (c.moveToFirst())
  {
do {
  // Extract the details
checkVersion = c.getString(MySettings.VERSION_COL);
  verified = c.getInt(MySettings.VERIFIED_COL);
} while(c.moveToNext());
  }
c.close();
   }
   catch(RuntimeException e){
   e.printStackTrace();
   }


And then I instanstiate an Object that creates 4 files as follows:

file = new File(FILE_PATH);
testFile = new File(TEST_PATH);
cipherFile = new File(CIPHER_PATH);
decipherFile = new File(DECIPHER_PATH);

I will try to find out if either one is causing the issue, thanks.

 I am trying to to download and decrypt an encrypted XML file.

 I have implemented the download part and have tested with an
 unencrypted file and it works fine.

 However I now need to be able to download an XML file that has been
 encrypted using AES and the key 

 So I am only concerned with decryption as the encryption on the XML
 file is already done.

 Here is my code so far:

[android-developers] Re: How to decrypt an XML file?

2010-09-24 Thread Donal Rafferty

Another update:

I have changed the code to test encryption first and then decryption so the
code is now as follows:

[CODE]Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance(AES/CFB8/NoPadding);

ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(new
FileOutputStream(keyFile));
oos.writeObject(skeySpec);

c.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, skeySpec);
CipherOutputStream cos = new CipherOutputStream(new
FileOutputStream(testFile), c);
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(cos));
pw.println(Stand and unfold yourself);
pw.close();
oos.writeObject(c.getIV());
oos.close();

c.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, skeySpec, new IvParameterSpec(toByte(bytes)));
CipherInputStream cis = new CipherInputStream(new FileInputStream(testFile),
c);
Log.d(, br.readLine());[/CODE]

This log now prints out the following:

[CODE]DEBUG/(13642): ï¿½lï¿½Å¤ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½Õ*(ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ yourself[/CODE]

So it looks like its decoding the last part of it but not the rest?

Any ideas?

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

Thanks for that! Excellent code.

But I have a problem!

When I try to do the following:

 private MyService service=null;

 private ServiceConnection svcConn=new ServiceConnection() {
 public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
 IBinder binder) {
 service=(MyService)binder;

 try {
 service.getRingTone();
 }

 //goBlooey(t);
 }
 }

 public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName className) {
 service=null;
 }
 };


bindService(new Intent(this, MyService.class), svcConn,
BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

I get an uncaught exception error on this line:

service=(MyService)binder;

09-13 10:06:53.566: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18791): Uncaught handler: thread

So it doesn't like the cast from binder to Service?

How can I fix that do you know? What am I missing from the example?

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Donal Rafferty

Monday morning coding! :)

I return my aidl definition in my service's onBind:

@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
Log.d(XXX, Status: onBind Called);
return myServiceStub;
}

IBinder myServiceStub = new IMyService.Stub(){

 //aidl methods

};

And use this to call methods from my Activity, so I would need to be able to
import android.media.Ringtone in my aidl definition but I cant.

So I'm still stuck with it not working :(

  Donal,

 No, a service is a service, and a binder is a binder.

 The binder you get in the callback is the binder returned by the service's
 onBind.

 This example:


 http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html

 has a binder implementation that returns a reference to its service, so you
 can do this

 public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className,
  IBinder binder) {

 LocalService.LocalBinder binder = (LocalService.LocalBinder) binder;
 *LocalService service = binder.getService();*
 }

 This example has one flaw: it leaks a service reference (since LocalBinder
 is a non-static inner class of LocalService). Using a static inner or a
 top-level class for LocalBinder, fixes that (AFAIK).

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Donal Rafferty

I have managed to implement the Task in my Service now but the original
problem still remains.

I dont cancel the Task at all in my service, I simply play the ringtone in
the postExecute method of the Asynctask if a flag is true, if its not I
dont.

But I get the same issue, after a couple of runs the AsyncTask simply stops
getting to the doInBackground method, only the postExecute method is run.

Its very strange and really annoying me now.

Is there any reason why an AsyncTask would behave like this without cancel
being used?

Re: [android-developers] Re: AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-13 Thread Donal Rafferty

Kostya,

I do create a new Task as follows everytime:

new SelectRingtoneTask().execute();

But I had to use Looper.prepare(); to get it to work in my Service, this
could be causing an issue?

Is there a proper way to use a AsyncTask in a Service without needing to
call Looper.prepare();?

2010/9/13 Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com

 It sort of seems like you reuse the same task over and over.

 What happens if you create a new task each time you need to perform the
 asynchronous operation?

Re: [android-developers] AsyncTask doesn't run sometimes despite state returning RUNNING?

2010-09-10 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks for that Shawn, but I'm looking for a solution that doesn't involve
external libraries.

On Fri, Sep 10, 2010 at 10:45 AM, Shawn Brown big.coffee.lo...@gmail.comwrote:

Has anybody got any idea why this would be happening?

Well... from
http://brainflush.wordpress.com/2009/11/16/introducing-droid-fu-for-android-betteractivity-betterservice-and-betterasynctask/

So the basic idea is: launch an AsyncTask making your service call,
show a nifty progress dialog while the task thread is running, and
have the task’s result be posted back to your activity once it
completes. Cool, but what if the user decides to rotate the screen
while your task is running? Or a phone call comes in, interrupting
your app, and Android decides to kill it? Both these actions will
effectively terminateyour activity, and recreate it when resuming
(yes, a screen rotation kills your activity, very clever, isn’t it?).
Unfortunately, any AsyncTask that was still running now holds a stale
reference to your activity, because the restarted activity will be an
entirely different object in memory (and it will go through
onCreate(), as if the activity had started for the first time). I’m
not entirely sure whether AsyncTask will actually post back the data
to the old activity object (if it was a weak reference, it may already
have been garbage collected), but in any case, your “new” activity
will never see it, because it’s a different instance.

Now, one could argue: well, just do all the work again, like, re-send
the request or whatever job was running. Yes, you could do that. But
that’s wasteful and, really, makes you feel stupid, no? Plus, if the
user triggers a web service request, then flips the screen, decides
that this wasn’t helpful, and flips it back, then your request is
being sent 3 times in parallel. Is that what you want? Probably not.

BetterAsyncTask to the Rescue

Thanks to Droid-Fu, there’s a solution to this: BetterAsyncTask! (I’m
a lazy person, and I couldn’t come up with a better name). It behaves
exactly like AsyncTask (in fact, it is an AsyncTask), but it does some
extra work for you: first and foremost, it keeps track of the active
instance of the context that launched it, and if that instance should
change, it will post the data back to the new instance. In other
words, you can dispatch your task, flip the screen back and forth
mentally, and BetterAsyncTask will still post the task’s result back
to whatever activity instance is alive at the time it finishes. In
other words, the task is only ever run once, regardless whether the
context in which it was launched died while it was running or not.

Excellent idea Federico, However my AsyncTask fetches a RingTone object
(com.android.RingTone) and I have no way of passing this object from my
Service to my Activity?

You could probably move the async task to a service, and broadcast all
your stuff when you finish.
If your activity listens for the broadcast, it won't matter if the
activity itself started the service, or if it was started by another
activity (of the same kind).

Is that possible?

I have a bind between my Service and the Activity at the minute but when I

One way I would try is to bind your activity to the service and give

You can provide your ringtone object as argument of the callback.

So the basic idea is: launch an AsyncTask making your service call,
show a nifty progress dialog while the task thread is running, and
have the task’s result be posted back to your activity once it
completes. Cool, but what if the user decides to rotate the screen
while your task is running? Or a phone call comes in, interrupting
your app, and Android decides to kill it? Both these actions will
effectively terminateyour activity, and recreate it when resuming
(yes, a screen rotation kills your activity, very clever, isn’t
it?).
Unfortunately, any AsyncTask that was still running now holds a
stale
reference to your activity, because the restarted activity will be
an
entirely different object in memory (and it will go through
onCreate(), as if the activity had started for the first time). I’m

As in the following piece of code...? :

I do that but I think I do require the aidl to be able to call methods from
the service?

 In any case, I meant binding the activity to the service using
 bindService method without passing from the aidl.
 In this way you will get direct access to the methods of the service
 directly from the activity. In this way, I suppose you can pass the
 service an interface to get called when your asynctask finished its
 job.

 Try to google for service binding examples.

 Hope this helps (and I hope I am not saying bullshit as well :-) )

Re: [android-developers] How to code ContactsContract so that it runs in 2.2 and doesn't crash 1.5?

2010-07-28 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks Kostya,

I have grasped that now and have it working in one part of my application.

I have another problem now though.

I have this in code:

Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId
(Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI, contactId);

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, contactUri);
startActivity(intent);

This launchs the contacts application and displays the contact according to
the ID supplied, this works in all Android versions except 2.2 (API level 8)
and I cant find the equivalant code for 2.2.

I have tried ContactsContract.PhoneLookup, ContactsContract.Contact,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds but none of them seem to let me launch the
contacts application and dispaly a contacts info according to a supplied ID.

Can anyone help with this?

 Hi,

 Even though you're not referencing this nested member on the execution
 path, the Java VM still tries to resolve all external references made by
 your code. This is done when your code is first loaded into memory for
 execution, before it is run. At this point, the external reference fails
 (since you are on Android 1.5), and your code is not able to load and

 The solution is to use Java Reflection feature to not make any compile-time

 they exist. This way, there are no compile-time references to stuff that
 only exists in later API levels, and your code can gracefully fall back to

 The key is what references your code makes at compile time, and, as a

 http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/ALT/Reflection/

 That is the general solution.

 However, in this particular case, you could duplicate the URI string from

 ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI

 to some string constant in your code. Just like this:

 class YourClass {

 private static final String ANDROID_1_X_CONTACTS_URI = People.CONTENT_URI;

 private static final String ANDROID_2_X_CONTACTS_URI = content://put
 correct value here;
 }

 Then use the appropriate constant (one of the two) based on API level just
 like you're trying to do now.

[android-developers] Notification Error - contentIntent

I have a service running that updates a notification in the notification bar
when it recieves a message saying it has to be changed.

However I get the following error sometimes when the notification is to be

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: contentIntent required

Here is my code:

Variable setup

---

int icon = R.drawable.notification;
CharSequence tickerText = Test;
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();
PendingIntent contentIntent;

Notification notification = new Notification(icon, tickerText, when);

NotificationManager mNotificationManager;

---

NotificationManager Creation

---

String ns = Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE;
mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(ns);

---

Notification Creation

---


Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, TestsApp.class);
contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
notificationIntent, 0);
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR;
notification.icon = R.drawable.notification3;
notification.setLatestEventInfo(this, Registering, Test,
contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(1, notification);

---

Update of Notification

---

notification.icon = R.drawable.notification2;
notification.setLatestEventInfo(getApplicationContext(),
Registered, Test, contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(1, notification);

---

So something is happening my contentIntent somewhere along the line, would
that be correct?

It is declared at the top of my Service class as a member variable and is
not used anywhere else in the code apart from shown above, so where could it
be getting reset to null?

Re: [android-developers] A clear, concise tutorial on PreferenceActivity Preferences?

2010-06-01 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks Mark.

To access my preferences outside my PreferenceActivity in another Activity
or a Service can I use PreferenceManager.
getDefaultSharedPreferences() also?

In your code here:

http://github.com/commonsguy/cw-android/blob/master/Prefs/Dialogs/src/com/commonsware/android/prefdialogs/DialogsDemo.java

I see SharedPreferences prefs=PreferenceManager is used, is that correct?
Should I use it like that to retrieve my preferences eslewhere in my
application?

  I have my preferences saved in preferences.xml as follows:
 
  PreferenceScreen xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/

  PreferenceCategory android:title=Wifi Settings
 
  EditTextPreference
  android:key=edittext_block_attach_err

  I then have a preference activity as follows:
 
  public class WlanSettings extends PreferenceActivity {
 
  SharedPreferences prefs;
 
 
  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 
  addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences);
  prefs = this.getSharedPreferences(CiceroWlanSettings,
  Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
 
 
  }
 
  This display's the EditTextPreference fine but how do I then set up a
  default preference to be displayed in the dialog box that pops up with
  an EditTextPreference?

 android:defaultValue in the XML.

  And How do I save changes that occur in my preference activity to my
  preferences?

 It happens automatically.

 I don't know what that prefs=this.getSharedPreferences() line is for.
 It's not needed, and it's probably reading the wrong file, anyway. Use
 PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences() for work with the file
 that will be used by the PreferenceActivity.

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to update a Widget dynamically (Not waiting 30 min for onUpdate to be called)?

2010-05-31 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks all for the help.

This is just a learning project for myself and wont be released on the
Android market. So I am aware that it may not be the best approach but it is
something to learn from.

I have implemented the widget with the following code:

public class WlanWidget extends AppWidgetProvider{

RemoteViews remoteViews;
AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager;
ComponentName thisWidget;
WifiManager wifiManager;

public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager,
int[] appWidgetIds) {
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new WlanTimer(context,
appWidgetManager), 1, 1000);

}


private class WlanTimer extends TimerTask{

RemoteViews remoteViews;
AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager;
ComponentName thisWidget;

public WlanTimer(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager) {

this.appWidgetManager = appWidgetManager;
remoteViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(),
R.layout.widget);
thisWidget = new ComponentName(context, WlanWidget.class);
wifiManager =
(WifiManager)context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);


}

@Override
public void run() {

remoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.widget_textview,
wifiManager.getConnectionInfo().getSSID());
if((GlobalData.MIN_RSSI_LEVEL -
(Math.abs(wifiManager.getConnectionInfo().getRssi())*2) = 100)){
remoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.widget_percentage,
(GlobalData.MIN_RSSI_LEVEL -
(Math.abs(wifiManager.getConnectionInfo().getRssi())*2)+%));
}
else
{
remoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.widget_percentage,
100%);
}
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(thisWidget, remoteViews);
}

}

}

This appears to work fine but it then seems to make the
android.process.acore crash, it also crashes theandroid.process.acore if I
try to long press on the widget.

I get the following messages in logcat then:

[android-developers] Re: Does Observer not work in a Android Service?

2010-05-31 Thread Donal Rafferty

Never mind! Monday Morning coding mistake, sorry!

On Mon, May 31, 2010 at 11:44 AM, draf...@gmail.com draf...@gmail.comwrote:

 I am using the Observer pattern in my Android application to notify a
 running service that some data has changed:

 Here is the code outside the Service: (WifiConnectionManager)

 ---

//Observables
@Override
public void NotifyQCLevelChange(QCLevel newQoSLevel) {
setChanged();
notifyObservers( newQoSLevel );
}


@Override
public void NotifyQCPercentageChange(int percentage) {
setChanged();
notifyObservers( percentage );
}

 ---

 Where the observables get updated within an Observer update method:
 (WifiConnectionManager)

 ---

@Override
public void update(Observable arg0, Object arg) {
if( !iActive )
return;

if( arg0 instanceof WifiMonitor ){
Log.d(WifiConnectionManager, update from
 WiFiMonitor ss=: +
 arg.toString());
if(
 iConnectionState.equals(ConnectionState.IPACTIVE) )
{
int qcPercentage =
 Integer.parseInt(arg.toString());
Log.d(GetActiveQCLevel, GetActiveQCLevel
 called);
QCLevel aConnectionQCLevel =
 GetActiveQCLevel(qcPercentage);


if(
 !aConnectionQCLevel.equals(iConnectionQCLevel) )
{
iConnectionQCLevel =
 aConnectionQCLevel;

  NotifyQCLevelChange(iConnectionQCLevel);
Log.d(NotifyQCLevelChange,
 NotifyQCLevelChange);
}

NotifyQCPercentageChange(qcPercentage);
Log.d(NotifyQCPercentageChange,
 NotifyQCPercentageChange);
}
}

 ---

 And finally the Observer in my service: (WifiService)

 ---

@Override
public void update(Observable observable, Object data) {

if( observable instanceof WifiConnectionManager  data
 instanceof
 QCLevel){

Log.d(WifiConnectionManager, instanceof
 QCLevel);

}
else if( observable instanceof WifiConnectionManager  data
 instanceof Integer){

Log.d(WifiConnectionManager, instanceof
 Integer);

}
else if( observable instanceof WifiConnectionManager){

Log.d(WifiConnectionManager, instanceof
 WifiConnectionManager);

}

 ---

 From the log I can see that Log.d(GetActiveQCLevel,
 GetActiveQCLevel called); 
 Log.d(NotifyQCPercentageChange, NotifyQCPercentageChange); get
 called but nothing in the update method of the Observer in my service
 (WifiService) gets called.

 Can anyone see where the problem is or is there a restriction I am not
 aware of?

**UPDATED CODE:**

---

sendOrderedBroadcast(i, null, domainBroadcast, null, Activity.RESULT_OK,
null, null);

---

class DomainBroadcast extends BroadcastReceiver{

@Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();

Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
int testQCLevel = b.getInt(com.testnetworks.QCLEVEL);
switch(testQCLevel){
case 1:
Log.d(QCLevel , QCLevel = UNAVAILABLE);

 If so what do I use as the resultReceiver* parameter? (3rd parameter)

 And then how to I recieve data back from the Broadcast?

 I have done a quick google and not come up with any examples, any help

 *resultReceiver - Your own BroadcastReceiver to treat as the final

Re: [android-developers] How to scan Access Points and select strongest signal?

2010-05-26 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks again Kostya,

One final thing (well final for now, I'll probably run into more problems
after testing)

I was wondering what method you chose to convert the RSSI to a percentage?

I have been reading up on it and found the formula that uses RSSI_MAX value
but I'm unsure of the max RSSI value of the Wifi adapters.

Another way I thought about doing it is using the calculateSignal method and
converting to a percentage that way.

Can you provide any guidance on the matter?

2010/5/18 Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com

  Donal,

 It's in scanResult.capabilites, and it's a pretty self-explanatory string.

 describeCapabilities is inhertied from Parcelable and has to do with
 persistence.

 18.05.2010 12:48, Donal Rafferty пишет:

 Very good tutorial there, thanks.

 One thing missing though is how you decide whether a scan result is an open
 netowrk or one using WEP or WPA/WPA2?

 Do you have to use scanResult.describeContents() or scanResult.capabilities
 in some way to determine which type of network to add?



 2010/5/18 Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com

 Donald,

 Yes, obviously it's possible - Android's built-it UI for connection
 management does it somehow :)

 In my program, I do it like this:

 Donald,

 Yes, your algorithm is correct. Only add network from the scan list to
 the known list if not already there.

 As for scanning on the move, take a look at wake locks.

Very good tutorial there, thanks.

One thing missing though is how you decide whether a scan result is an open
netowrk or one using WEP or WPA/WPA2?

Do you have to use scanResult.describeContents() or scanResult.capabilities
in some way to determine which type of network to add?

 Yes, obviously it's possible - Android's built-it UI for connection

Re: [android-developers] How to scan Access Points and select strongest signal?

2010-05-14 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks for that Kostya

I have come across a bit of a problem though.

After a scan there are 11 AP's found and all 11 show up in the list in the
Wifi settings on the device.

But when I use 
getConfiguredNetworkshttp://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiManager.html#getConfiguredNetworks()
it only returns 4 configured networks.

This happens despite the 11 AP's showing up in the settings after a scan.

So the majority of the time when I compared the AP with the best signal's
SSID with the SSID's in the Configured Network list the majority of the time
no matching SSID is found.

In that case I try to add a new network but this ends up creating duplicates
of the AP in the settings list.

 Hi,

 1. Regarding duplicates. Android maintains a list of known networks - for
 each, it stores the SSID, encryption configuration, along with the password,
 if necessary. Each known network also has a unique numeric ID.

 You can only connect to networks on this known list, because, as you
 correctly figured out, connecting to a network is done by its id.

 However, it's not necessary to add the network to this list if it's already
 been added (by Android or by your application).

 You can get the list of known networks from the WifiManager:


 http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiManager.html#getConfiguredNetworks
 ()

 You can match these networks to your live scan results using their SSIDs.
 If the network is already in the known list, just use its numeric id. If
 not, you get the numeric ID back from addNetwork().

 2. Once you have the numeric ID, call enableNetwork(networkId, true) to
 connect. The second parameter means disconnect from others, not forget
 all other network as its name might seem to imply.

 access points, calculate which access point has the best signal and

 I have the scanning and calculation of the best signal working.

 But when it comes to attaching to the best access point I am having

 It appears that enableNetwork(netid, othersTrueFalse) is the only

   ScanResult scan =
 wifiManager.calculateBestAP(sResults);
   wifiManager.addNewAccessPoint(scan);
   }
   });
}};

t.schedule(scanTask, 3000, 3);
}

 ScanResult bestSignal = null;
for (ScanResult result : sResults) {

bestSignal = result;
}

String message = String.format(%s networks found. %s
 is the

sResults.size(), bestSignal.SSID,

Log.d(sResult, message);
return bestSignal;

 I think you are not matching the SSIDs of known and live networks
 correctly.

 The SSIDs in the known list are enclosed in double quotes:


 http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiConfiguration.html#SSID

 The SSIDs in the live scan result list are as is, without the quotes.

 Your code needs to take this into consideration when matching the networks
 between the two lists.

 BTW, feel free to download and try my WiFi management tool, I think it
 should make it easier to see what's going on. See the link in my signature

 The NDK has very little formal access to Android internals and certainly
 cannot rewrite them.

 Now, with firmware changes, it is at least theoretically possible.

Re: [android-developers] Making sure activity is alive to receive Intent?

2010-03-05 Thread Donal Rafferty

Thanks Sean, they are two additional methods I can look into now much
appreciated

 There are better ways of handling this. The purpose of an Intent is to

 retrieve the result of that action), not to continue a discussion with
 the activity throughout it's continued lifetime.

 There are a number of ways to do what you want, if both the calling
 and callee activities are in the same app (just a startActivity() type
 call), you could use shared preferences:


 http://www.androidcompetencycenter.com/2009/01/android-basics-managing-activity-states-part-ii/

 If the activities are in different apps, you should use a content
 provider to handle the IPC:


 http://developer.android.com/intl/de/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html

 Either approach will allow you to share the state data between your
 activities.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Loop audio from mic to earpiece?

2010-01-21 Thread Donal Rafferty

Really sorry to keep annoying you Micheal, head just doesn't seem to be
functioning properly today.

I currenlty have the AudiRecord buffer set up like this:

static final int bufferSize = 8;
final short[] buffer = new short[bufferSize];
short[] readBuffer = new short[bufferSize];

File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory
  ().getAbsolutePath() + /record.pcm);

OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(file);
 BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(os);
 DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(bos);

So that sets up to buffer to the file record.pcm and the AudioRecord.read()
methos is as follows:

 int bufferReadResult = audioRecord.read(readBuffer, 0,bufferSize);

for (int i = 0; i  bufferSize; i++)
buffer[i] = readBuffer[i];
for (int i = 0; i  bufferReadResult; i++)
  dos.writeShort(buffer[i]);

So it ends up reading to the file that way, so instead of the OutputStream
os being set
to a FileOutputStream do I set it to something else? and then add the
OutputStream to
a BufferedOutputStream and then that to DaraOutPutStream?

Or does buffer[i] hold exactly what I need and I just need to get whats in
buffer[i] to
the AudioTrack?

Thanks again and sorry to be so much hassle

 Hi Donal,

 Once you have constructed an AudioRecord instance you can call
 startRecording and then you can use the various read methods to pull
 the PCM data out.
 Likewise once you have constructed an AudioTrack and called play you
 can use one of the write methods to push the data you got from
 AudioRecord into the play buffer.

 Hi Donal,

 I have pulled together some of my code to form an example. I have no
 idea if this code would compile, but it should be pretty close and
 should serve as an example to get you going.



android.os.Process.setThreadPriority
 (android.os.Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_URGENT_AUDIO);

int buffersize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(11025,
 AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,
 AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);

AudioRecord arec = new
 AudioRecord(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC,
11025,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,
buffersize);

AudioTrack atrack = new
 AudioTrack(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,
11025,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,
ba.size(),
AudioTrack.MODE_STREAMING);

atrack.setPlaybackRate(11025);

byte[] buffer = new byte[buffersize];
arec.startRecording();
atrack.play();

while(isRecording) {
arec.read(buffer, 0, buffersize);
try {
atrack.write(buffer, 0, buffer.size());
} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();
}
}

arec.stop();
atrack.stop();

 This sets up an AudioRecord and an AudioTrack, tells the one to record
 and the other to play. You then have the while loop which reads the
 data out of the record and writes it to the play. This should
 reproduce the microphone audio as output for you (the code above will
 most likely put it out the speaker, play with the stream in the
 AudioTrack constructor for earpiece).

 You will need to run this code on a seperate thread and control the
 lifetime of the thread using the isRecording boolean.
 The first line elevates the thread to a higher priority, this may or
 may not be correct, so you should play with it and see.
 As for your delay, you may need to increase your buffer sizes to hold
 a few seconds worth of data and then just write the data to the
 AudioTrack later to create the delay.

 Oh and watch for feedback if the sound does come out of the speaker as
 it can be exponential if it's loud. You can always call:

setVolumeControlStream(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);

 from your activity and just make sure you pass the same stream as the
 one you pass to AudioTrack and your volume control will control the
 volume of that stream, enabling you to turn it down ;-)

 Hope that helps,
 Mike

 AudioRecord.read()
  methos is as follows:
 
   int bufferReadResult = audioRecord.read(readBuffer, 0,bufferSize);
 
  for (int i = 0; i  bufferSize; i++)
  buffer[i] = readBuffer[i];
  for (int i = 0; i  bufferReadResult; i++)
dos.writeShort(buffer[i]);
 
  So it ends up reading to the file that way, so instead of the
 OutputStream
  os being set
  to a FileOutputStream do I set it to something else? and then add the
  OutputStream to
  a BufferedOutputStream and then that to DaraOutPutStream?
 
  Or does buffer[i] hold exactly what I need and I just need to get whats
 in
  buffer[i] to
  the AudioTrack?
 
  Thanks again and sorry to be so much hassle

   Hi Donal,
 
   Once you have constructed an AudioRecord instance you can call
   startRecording and then you can use the various read methods to pull
   the PCM data out.
   Likewise once you have constructed an AudioTrack and called play you
   can use one of the write methods to push the data you got from
   AudioRecord into the play buffer

You might find the Heirachy viewer some use as well, you can find in in the
SDK package in the toold folder.

Also in his book Android wireless application development Shane Condor
describes how to draw a chessboard as well as working with bitmaps and other
bits and pieces you might find useful, its by no means comprehensive but I
imagine could be a good starting point.

2010-01-06 Thread Donal Rafferty

I done a bit on authenticating using Google web toolkit about a year ago, it
might be slightly different when doing it through Android but I'd imagine it
would be fairly similiar

you can read about how I authenticated with GWT on my website here -
http://www.riad-donal-rafferty.com/portfolioGWT.html

Be aware that this isn't the most secure way to authenticate.

Also the code isn't formated on the website, you may want to copy and paste
it into an editor

Hope it helps

Hi Kumar,

The idea is to show calls made over wi fi or 3G from another application in
the Call Log as if they were made over GSM.

You reckon looking at the source will be the only way?

Thanks,

Donal

 You need to re-read the documentations, or may be look at the source
 codes.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Adding, Editing, Deleting entries in Androids call log

2009-12-16 Thread Donal Rafferty

I have come across this in the source

ublic static Uri addCall(CallerInfo ci, Context context, String number,
 int presentation, int callType, long start, int duration) {
 final ContentResolver resolver = context.getContentResolver();

 // If this is a private number then set the number to Private,
 otherwise check
 // if the number field is empty and set the number to
 Unavailable
 if (presentation == Connection.PRESENTATION_RESTRICTED) {
 number = CallerInfo.PRIVATE_NUMBER;
 if (ci != null) ci.name = ;
 } else if (presentation == Connection.PRESENTATION_PAYPHONE) {
 number = CallerInfo.PAYPHONE_NUMBER;
 if (ci != null) ci.name = ;
 } else if (TextUtils.isEmpty(number)
 || presentation == Connection.PRESENTATION_UNKNOWN) {
 number = CallerInfo.UNKNOWN_NUMBER;
 if (ci != null) ci.name = ;
 }

 ContentValues values = new ContentValues(5);

 values.put(NUMBER, number);
 values.put(TYPE, Integer.valueOf(callType));
 values.put(DATE, Long.valueOf(start));
 values.put(DURATION, Long.valueOf(duration));
 values.put(NEW, Integer.valueOf(1));
 if (ci != null) {
 values.put(CACHED_NAME, ci.name);
 values.put(CACHED_NUMBER_TYPE, ci.numberType);
 values.put(CACHED_NUMBER_LABEL, ci.numberLabel);
 }

 if ((ci != null)  (ci.person_id  0)) {
 ContactsContract.Contacts.markAsContacted(resolver,
 ci.person_id);
 }

 Uri result = resolver.insert(CONTENT_URI, values);

 removeExpiredEntries(context);

 return result;
 }


Could I use this in some way and how do I go about it?

Thanks,

Donal
