Re: [android-developers] Any suggestions for Ad platform in addition to AdMob
I suggest you take a look at: https://github.com/mopub/mopub-android-sdk/wiki/Getting-Started and https://github.com/mopub/mopub-android-sdk/wiki/Banner-Integration I'd probably stay away from low paying networks beside the ones stated before.

Re: [android-developers] Any suggestions for Ad platform in addition to AdMob
Nathan, I think you may have to do less work if you use Burstly or Mopub as your mediation platform and demote admob to a second class citizen. The require less SDK integrations. You are right, the rich media ad units are the ones that will give you the most bang per impression. I'm not as familiar with Mopub, but i know burstly can deliver rich media ad units from many 3rd party networks into their SDKs. I *believe* they built their system where it takes into account the permissions available and delivers the appropriate ads. At the very least you could just have the INTERNET permission to be able to load most ad units. Doing s2s integrations would take some serious time and resources. It boils down to having your own server and support MRAIDv2 in your application. Mopub has open source MRAID compliant SDKs that you can drop into your application. This will take down bloat and give you full control but it'll take a long time to develop. A prepackaged solution like Burstly might be your best choice. In which case you could use something like Chartboost (static images, high cpm) and supplement it with admob or something. The highest paid networks, though, will have you install an SDK simply because of the complexities of the ad unit. There are a few choices and it depends on your scenario.

I am just getting started in the advertising space. 1. Test and experiment 2. Watch out for SDK bloat. Don't ship your app with a gazillion SDKs. Unfortunately, these appear to be in direct conflict. Is mediation supposed to solve this? Well, if I look at this chart. https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/mediation-networks It appears, if I'm not mistaken, that ALL of the networks mentioned require both an SDK and an adapter component. And the four that were listed by Miguel as the top four, weren't even on this list, which either means they can't be mediated or I get to write my own adapters. So no chance of trying out 20 ad networks without integrating 20 SDKs and 20 adapters. Any one of the SDKs or adapters could have some stupid bug and bring the whole app down. In the meantime, my APK is of abnormal size. If I look at MoPub, it advertises Server to server integration, which might mean you need less SDKs. IT does have some footnotes. Note that in some cases, rich media and interstitial formats are only available through native SDK integrations. I don't know if, in practice, this works out to less SDKS. If it does, that is a desirable goal. And do most SDKs require the awful READ_PHONE_STATE permission?

Also if you develop your application the common way, i.e. in Java with Android SDK, it will run on a sandbox within the system, on the Dalvik VM, so your chances to execute native code are even less (though I think you can use JNI for the task), and to be honest I do not know how to do that and what issues you may found (may be you need even a rooted device).

Re: [android-developers] Re: Rendering off UI thread causes ANR on Samsung Note
Well, try adding a sleep first and then check your results again. You can then rule out the CPU consumption there and then. Otherwise, it indeed may be a bug. Perhaps that implementation creates a lock or something and lets the UI thread from continuing. That is the root of the issue, that the UI thread is not able to delegate events and maybe stuck waiting for a lock or executing code.

Given that the ANR occurs so quickly, and doesn't occur on other devices, I don't think the CPU usage is the cause.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Canvas performance for games
I second the OpenGL route. It's pretty much the only thing that'll give you the performance you want.

Further in the book he will have the OpenGL implementation of the same. There is also the excellent graphic library by the same, libgdx which you might also consider using. Another place to look is the replica island source - a fully implemented 2d game, and also look for the sprite method test which compares different methods of drawing sprites. You can indeed choose to only render parts of the screen that you consider dirty, which can also help with your performance, but likely you should be able to get the performance you want with just openGL, a texture atlas and drawing it all at once. On Sunday, April 29, 2012 12:00:45 PM UTC-4, realh wrote: I'm new to Android and Java, learning by porting a game I wrote years ago http://bombz.sourceforge.net**. Based on the book Beginning Android Games by Mario Zechner, I'm using the technique of creating a fixed size android.graphics.Bitmap (640x480) in RGB_565 format, rendering the game tile by tile to its canvas with drawBitmap(bmp, srcRect, dstRect, 0), then blitting the 640x480 bitmap to a SurfaceView's canvas, also using drawBitmap(). AIUI drawBitmap() will scale if necessary, but I've only tested with 1:1 scaling on an 800x480 device, leaving a gap on the side. All the above is done in a separate thread, using a SurfaceHolder. It's too slow, even without the debugger attached. The test device is a ZTE Blade. The original ran at 50fps and looked nice and smooth. I'll probably run the Android version a bit slower to compensate for controller difficulties, but I'd like to keep the same amount of movement per frame. I could halve the framerate and double the movement per frame, but I think I'd struggle to reach even 20fps, and dropping the rate further would make it unpleasantly jerky. I've added some basic profiling and got some average times: Game logic: 1ms, fine, but still a lot to be implemented Rendering the game tile by tile: 46ms, too slow Blit: 8ms, not too bad but would need improving to allow time for all the other stuff The core of the stage that's too slow consists of rendering tiles. Each tile is 32x32 pixels and the game world is made up of 20x15 of them. There's one source pixmap, also RGB_565, containing all the tiles, and the correct 32x32 portion for each tile is obtained by the srcRect. I don't think I could significantly improve the logic of the loop that does the tile rendering, but I could change the paradigm so that I only render the tiles that have changed between frames. However, the draw the whole world on each frame technique is nice and simple and used to work even back in the days of Acorn computers with 100MHz ARMs, and I want to progress to writing 4 way scrolling games, where the whole screen has to be updated every frame. And even in this one I sometimes have to update a whole load of tiles at once when there's a big explosion chain. So I think it's just too slow to use Canvases and Bitmaps this way.

Re: [android-developers] Re: splash screen
Well, to be honest you don't really need a splash screen.
What is taking so long is that you are loading the images in the same
thread as the UI thread.
This makes it hang while you load your bitmaps. I'm surprised you're not
getting an application not responding alert.
What I do in my game is load bitmaps in a background thread.
Simply show a progress dialog while the background thread loads the
bitmaps. Then tell the UI thread that all the resources are ready to go.
Something like:
void onCreate() {
Handler callbackHandler = new Handler() {
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
//all resources have been loaded...
}
}
class MyThread extends Thread {
Handler handler;
MyThread(Handler cbHandler) {
handler = cbHandler;
}
@Override
public void run() {
//load all the images here...
handler.sendEmptyMessage();//let the UI thread know we're
done.
}
}
//show progress dialog here...
new MyThread(callbackHandler).start();

Re: [android-developers] Re: Suspended app
Haha, nothing in this world is fair. Come on now, you just got unlucky that you got caught. Next time try creating something more original and stop trying to leech off other companies.

If my app is getting pulled then why aren't the hundreds of others. Equality is all I'm talking about. How many unofficial guides are relased every year in the USA and not pulled? What if the application was about aviary birds that get upset over things and they used angry and birds int he title? Would they not be allowed to use it? There is a free app, angry birds walkthrough, 2 of them infact, neither has been pulled. Nor have the other 50+ walkthrough apps for angry birds, all using angry birds in their title. It would be a fair argument is no other app could have angry birds in the title, but this isn't the case. If you go look at my app on appbrain you'll see that I copied NOTHING from the angry birds app, don't accuse me of copyright infringement when it didn't happen. if you search angry birds you'll see hundreds of results, its a moot point that my app has angry birds in the title when so many others are using it as well. The reason of pointing out what other people are doing is simply that their apps are not suspended and mine is. If mine was suspended then why are their still up? If there is a speed trap and they are pulling over people who are causing infractions and an infraction is anything above the speed limit then why would someone doing 1mph over the limit get pulled over while others who are going 20 miles over the speed limit are not?

You will note that there are a total of 6 keywords and none of them are the names of popular apps used as a cheap ploy to bottom feed off their search hits. My keywords did include angry birds, but that being used as a keyword is completely related to my app. Your title also included Angry Birds, and your icon includes their copyrighted image. The only other infraction I see is one that hundreds of other developers did, they used artwork from the app. Officer, why are you arresting just *me*? I was just looting with the rest of the mob.

So let's say you're a photographer. You take a picture and post it in your online resume. It becomes famous. Someone takes that picture, copies it, and posts it elsewhere. I take that copy of the picture, forget where I got it, and then bundle it with my own work, to help it sell and thus profit from it, without your permission. But it's OK because I forgot where I got your clearly identifiable image from? Dude ... come on ... you can't be serious ... Has ANYONE had any success at contacting google, disputing the alleged infractions and getting their app reposted? There was a recent thread of someone getting banned due to DMCA notice and they got it resolved. They never heard from Google though. In your case, it seems pretty obvious that you'll not get re-instated. Yes, I can retool the artowrk, I already did that and I re-released it Wow. That's priceless. I had the best placement possible, int he top 4 most viewed and downloaded next to angry birds, angry birds seasons and angry birds rio - all before I added the keywords, which even google themselves do.

Re: [android-developers] Re: how do i know if i am on road between two points in android
This is really easy if you use your own server. Simply store lat/long values for the points you'd like. To get points near another point construct a lat/long perimeter around it. Basically, like a rectangle you'll have a start x,y lat/long pair and an end lat/long pair. You can then query your database to pull points within that perimeter. I suck at math so I used: http://search.cpan.org/~asp/Geo-Calc-0.04/lib/Geo/Calc.pm Some APIs may offer something like this. FYI, as other have pointed out.

Re: [android-developers] pausing games: dealing with Handler Messages timers
Why are you using timers? That seems needlessly complicated. Use a game loop that keeps a constant frame rate. Maintain state in your sprite objects, use the game loop to update this state. Then on a separate draw loop draw the sprite according to its state. Then you dont have to worry about weird sync issues. On Fri, Dec 2, 2011 at 5:45 AM, John Goche johngoch...@googlemail.comwrote: Hello, I have an android game which uses timers to update the screen sprites. When the user wishes to pause the screen I have to know which timers are pending and how long is missing before their expiration time. So this means I have to maintain separate data structures for each Handler to keep track of: A. when the timer is set (timerSetTime) with System.nanoTime() and B. how long before it expires (timerExpirationLength) so that when the user pauses the game screen I cancel all timers and then when the user unpauses for each paused timer I compute unpauseTime = System.nanoTime() and then reset each timer to timerExpirationLength - unpauseTime + timerSetTime and then when each timer expires unload the corresponding (timerSetTime and timerExpirationLength) data structure entry in the Handler subclass. OK, I have described my solution to the problem. The android Handler system does not seem to provide a custom solution to this problem so I had to implement my own code. If anyone has a better solution to the problem of dealing with game state timers when the game is paused (so that they are saved as part of the game state) I'd like to hear your alternative solutions.

Re: [android-developers] pausing games: dealing with Handler Messages timers
Well, having neat code is pretty useless in a game is you are going have
sync issues.
Furthermore, it's standard to have a game loop and a draw loop.
Plus, you are adding the overhead of using message queues. Also, if you
are launching or using a thread for each sprite the game is going to slow
down significantly from all the overhead.

Re: [android-developers] Re: About Phone GAP
It's ok for what it is. But, it's just all the layers of abstraction in HTML/JS that make it really slow. I doubt they will gain much more speed on mobile devices, perhaps by using hardware acceleartion. In either case, it's slow and it looks and feels like crap. But it's perfect for simple apps, users just want things that work. Although they prefer things that work well.

This is a terrible question.
What the hell do you mean: but it is not

Post a better description and a log.
Also, make sure you spend more than a minute typing up your question and
try really hard to use proper English.

It depends on the license of the artwork I believe. If you're going to purchase art, it's always good to retain the copyright so that you can use it as you wish.

Re: [android-developers] Bad performance in communication over TCP-Socket
That seems overly complicated, what are you trying to do?
I *think* your bottle neck is that you're reading 1 byte at a time.
You need to read more, if you simply expand your buffer your code may
work.
The way I've done is is to have a separate thread that's strictly for
TCP communication. There is no reason to have delays in your code
unless you're trying to throttle it, and even then it's just better to
do it inside a read loop in a separate thread.
So, after reading some bytes in this thread, I simply send these using
a Handler/Message object.
However, at this points the bytes are indeed copied if I'm correct.
If you want to avoid that overhead, you can just use a lock around
your data buffer.

Hi,
in my application I need to send and receive data bytewise over TCP.
At the beginning of development I tried to implement that
functionality as resource-efficient as possible.
So I finally decided to use messages (android.os.Message) to
cyclically initiate reading bytes from socket.
After establishing the connection I assign Input- and OutputStream and
order Android to execute the runnable readFromSocket after 100ms:
OutputStream out = null;
InputStream in = null;
Handler readInputHandler;
Socket gateway = new Socket();
gateway.connect(new InetSocketAddress(address, port), 2);
if (gateway.isConnected()) {
in = gateway.getInputStream();
out = gateway.getOutputStream();
readInputHandler.postDelayed(readFromSocket, 100);
}
The runnable reads one byte after another and passes it to a parser
that tries to assemble the single bytes to an instruction (on success,
I send it encapsulated in a Message to a Controller-Object). Finally
the runnable orders its own execution after another 100ms.
private Runnable readFromSocket = new Runnable() {
byte[] input = new byte[1];
@Override
public void run() {
try {
while (in.available() 0) {
in.read(input);
parser.parse(input[0]);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Initiate reading after 100 ms
readInputHandler.postDelayed(this, 100);
}
};
After testing my app on two different devices (Sony Ericsson Xperia
neo and Acer Iconia Tab) I currently hesitate whether my
implementation is the best solution...
When sending many bytes to the Xperia neo, seconds elapse between
sending and receiving/processing those data.
In comparison, on the Iconia Tab there arent't such big delays but the
performance also isn't very good.
How would you implement that functionality?
Thanks in advance.

Re: [android-developers] Re: How do I report a bug to htc?
You need to use a Lock such as: http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/locks/ReentrantLock.html This sounds like a race conditions, as others have pointed out. These are usually the hardest to narrow down. Static variables are not a good idea in general unless you know exactly what you're doing. Try adding a lock around your static object, like: private static Object mMyProtectedVar; private final Lock mLock = new ReentrantLock(); Then before touching the variable, ALWAYS use the lock like so: mLock.lock(); mMyProtectedVar.something = something; mLock.unlock(); Java provides some keywords for making variables and methods thread safe, although I find a lock to be really clear as to its intended purpose.

About your second question, Try enabling anti-alias on your paint object On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 1:56 PM, Nathan critter...@crittermap.com wrote: Hi, I'm using DrawtextOnPath. My first question is what does hOffset really mean? It says the distance along the path to add to the text's starting position. Is this Euclidean distance in pixels or what? There is no Canvas.measurePath() command that I can tell, so I have estimated the total length of the path by summing the length of its line segments. lengthsquared+=(x-lastx)*(x-lastx) + (y-lasty)*(y-lasty); totallength = Math.sqrt(lengthsquared) I think, using my excellent math skills, that I should then be able to divide totallength by canvas.measureText() to get a number of times I should repeat the text along the path, evenly spaced. But I am find that the totallength in most cases is smaller than it should be.

The other problem is that it doesn't look so great. It does look okay in APIDemos where you know both the size of the text and have control over the path. But when you are data driven and you are using the Path to draw a, well, path, as in walking path and trying to stretch a label on it, it tends to look like graffiti rather easily. When going around a convex curve or corner, it stretches letters as if there were an ink spill. When going around a concave curve, words overlap like a broken typewriter.

Also, and correct me if I'm wrong. AsyncTask uses an internal threadpool to balance background requests.

Also, you do get slightly better performance because with AsyncTask the threads are already running. If you implement your own thread you have the overhead of starting the thread.

with some function, which are called depending on the incoming data:
allServerActions.put(
ami.serverId,
new IntIntFunction() {
public int function(int i1, int i2) {
Message msg = Message.obtain(hRefresh, 1,
i1, i2);
hRefresh.sendMessage(msg);
return 0;
} // end function
} // end new

Where IntIntFunction is:

Is there any other way to implement an activity whose interface is updated
by data coming from a socket?
thanks

Re: [android-developers] Dialog dismiss()
The problem is that you are attempting to update the UI in a foreign thread.
This line: progressDialog.dismiss();
You seem to be using a handler, so just change it to:
handler.postRunnable(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
progressDialog.dismiss();
});
Don't ever touch the UI outside of the UI thread.
To handle rotation, save a static instance of your activity in your
onCreate() method and remove it on onDestroy();
So, something like:
static MyActivity mStaticSelf = null;
onCreate() {
mStaticSelf = this;
}
Then change your handler code to:
@Override
public void run() {
mStaticSelf.progressDialog.dismiss();
});

I *think* because dismiss is asynchronous - calling dismiss just puts the

Actually, don't use a ProgressDialog, use Activity.showDialog()

Re: [android-developers] Dialog dismiss()
dismiss() can be called from any thread: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Dialog.html#dismiss() It just queues the dialog up for cleanup - or something along those lines. Hmm, I see. I would argue it shouldn't be thread safe, since it violates the don't touch the UI rule. But yeah, I highly recommend using showDialog/removeDialog and don't bother holding an instance of the progress dialog yourself. This, along with the static activity should work ok if you want a quick fix. Or, you'll have to use saveinstance to save status of your app and handle it accordingly in onCreate(). This is why Greg's code path is not in the stacktrace. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

That's pretty much what I suggested. Anyway, parsing html with java is really easy. Take a look at WebHarvest, and libraries like xlst and xpath.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Combining Canvas with OpenGL

Is this just a vague worry or is there something, in particular, that is running to slowly? The answer to your question is that it is always the onDraw method that gets called, when you need to redraw the view. I'd guess that you will set up an animation thread to redraw the view. That thread will, probably, update the position of the 2nd image but not the first, and then request a repaint. That will generate a call to onDraw. You can make onDraw as clever is is necessary. If your scene is expensive to compute and only the 2nd image moves, you might be able to cache the first as a bitMap.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Updating UI from second thread
Yeah you should redesign your app. Or, come up with some sort of buffer solution. Depends on how often your check function runs, and how critical it is to the UI interaction. Maybe setup event listeners for every checkbox so that it keeps track of an internal structure what needs to be checked, and what doesn't. Then tell your calculation thread to calculate what needs to be checked. After the calculation is done, the thread tells the ui what to check. This *might* work. Where you avoid the thread/queue overhead and manipulate the UI in batches. (and really, you should only be manipulating what's visible on the screen.)

The application behaves exactly like I would run the above code in the UI thread - everything freezes. A possible solution is sleeping for some miliseconds after each checkbox so the Runnable can be executed and the UI will have time to process the events... but it's more like a hack.

Re: [android-developers] need thread on UI / lifecycle Gotchas
Well, if you use findViewById() in a thread, that's plain out wrong.
The function you posted seems wrong in that it first makes a UI call
in that thread context.
Then it attempts to use a queue to post a runnable to so that
setText() runs in the UI thread.
It's redundant if it's already in the UI thread, and broken if it's in
another thread.

But I still get told that I am in violation.

Re: [android-developers] Re: onDraw() causing flicker when drawing new images
Perhaps you can try adding a synchronized lock that protects your data array. Lock it before going into onDraw() and unlock it when finished, and do the same when calculating your array data. Do you have a separate thread that calculates positions?

At one point I was just replacing images with new ones in a grid, but the images didn't all draw at the same time. I think that that may have had something to do with modifying the array that it was using to determine what to draw but I couldn't get it resolved even when pausing the drawing. Now I have images that drop down and new ones fall in (think slot machine reels) but the images will occasionally flicker with what the new image is going to be before the old images fall out. Basically I guess I'm asking what is a good way to either pause the onDraw command while I can edit my arrays and get them all in place or what is a good way to sync my array modifications to not take place during an onDraw cycle? Or is onDraw just bad at drawing images simultaneously and I should be using OpenGL or something? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] I can't show random images in the ImageView
Add some logging so that you can see what n is.
Then find out why it's not generating a random number.

Nice day!
I tried to show random images in my application in an ImageView. I
tried this code:
public class r extends Activity{
ImageView secret;

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.r);
TextView txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt);
secret = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.secret);
Runnable r1 = new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int imageArr[] = new int[3];
imageArr[0] = R.drawable.r1_mirror;
imageArr[1] = R.drawable.s1_mirror;
imageArr[2] = R.drawable.p2_mirror;
int n = (int) Math.random()*3;
secret.setImageResource(imageArr[n]);
}
};
secret.postDelayed(r1, 5000);
}
}
But it only show the r1_mirror image, everytime, when I start my
application in the emulator. What I made bad? I thought that it will
working, but.
Thanks for any helps

Re: [android-developers] Re: Android -- the forgotten real fragmentation
That's odd, I just tried it and indeed it only works for 3.7.x version. Looking up the error brought up this page: http://www.sqlite.org/draft/wal.html Particularly the part of backwards compatibility. Seems that something happened with that file, or it was in the middle of an operation or something. So, I would say it's a bug. I don't think there are any other compile options for sqlite lite to make the file format be different.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Android -- the forgotten real fragmentation
It's still possible despite that, read the link I posted. If the file was in some sort of unfinished operation where the write ahead log it will change the file format. The file would still be readable by 3.7 by not by anything below. Read the file to determine its version. Or send it over to the sqlite people as this appears not to be the expected behavior. Also, how is this database populated? Via java code or through the sqlite command line?

Yeah, that's right. That makes sense. I was going to try to read the bytes in and display the version but I'm too tired. But seems like that's the culprit of the issue.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Android -- the forgotten real fragmentation
Ok, so this is weird. It seems that WAL mode is being activated from the java code. I just opened the bad database file in 3.7x and ran the command: PRAGMA journal_mode=DELETE to disable WAL. I was then able to open the database file in the 3.6x version. On Wed, Aug 3, 2011 at 11:56 PM, Miguel Morales therevolti...@gmail.com wrote: Yeah, that's right. That makes sense.
