Re: [android-developers] simulate just onPause() without onStop()
onPause() is called whenever there is a change in current foreground Context. The outgoing Context gets onPause() and incoming context gets onResume(). Showing a dialog does not change the Context. Starting a new activity does. Starting a service is different since its always in the background. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: how to ship data into apk as internal storage
Have you read the following blog post? http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2012/03/android-apps-break-50mb-barrier.html You can use the expansion files to provide your data.

[android-developers] Re: Hidden fragments (and animations) after a rotation
I am not exactly sure if this is the cause of your problem but your
fragment creation code is flawed. When you use *setRetainInstance(true)* you
don't need to create the fragment every time the activity is created. Also,
I don't know why you check for saveInstance to be null. When the phone is
rotated you should just retrieve the existing fragment instance from the
FragmentManager. I use something like below in mu base Activity:
protected Fragment addFragment( Class? clss ) {
String tag = clss.getSimpleName();
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment f = fm.findFragmentByTag( tag );
if ( f == null ) {
f = Fragment.instantiate( this, clss.getName() );
}
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
ft.add( R.id.fragment_container, f, tag );
ft.commit();
return f;
}
And then in onCreate() of my Activity I simply call:
MyFragment f = addFragment( MyFragment.class );
This means that a Fragment instance is created the first time the Activity
is created but on any subsequent rotations, the existing Fragment instance
is retrieved from the FragmentManager is attached to the activity.
Your code creates a new Fragment instance every time the device is rotated,
which may lead to other issues like Fragment instances with no attached
Activity.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Write storage on Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7
That hasn't stopped many devices from making the removable storage their primary one. But if this is by design, I'd like to link to the design philosophy document. Maybe I can send that to the users. I can't find anything official, though. If the other devices are going to be unwriteable 90% of the time, I can't spend much more time on it. I find it hard to believe that devices exist that treat removable storage as primary. If your app/users need to create very large files, you need devices with huge amounts of internal storage or you need to work out an alternate mechanism such as cloud storage. Handheld portable devices are not general purpose computers (yet). You should not expect to use them as one. I do no subscribe to that philosophy. Compared to computers of not very many years ago, 2Gig or 8gig is already lots of space. If there is another card slot, users are going to put a 32gig SD card. In practice, it is not removed all that often. It is only natural that users expect apps to be able to use that space. Then they find out some can and some can't. At the same rate, the storage demand of a typical user has gone up. Today we have a need to store gigabytes of media files (music, pictures and videos) which did not exist many years ago so 8 gigs is not a lot of space anymore. Did we have 8 megapixel cameras in devices or ability to view HD videos a few years ago? I agree that it would be great to have ability to discover the removable storage in a sane and predictable manner but as I said, it looks like the platform wants to treat the removable storage as a transient readonly storage for media files. I understand by now that I don't have any say, but this idea of tight, arbitrary control of what content a user puts on their own storage volume seems more Apple like than Android like. Apple users don't, in general, have file access to their own volume, so Android *could* be very competitive in this area. But at present, we are frustrating users enough that they are crawling back to iOS. Funny you mention iOS in this context when you don't even have *any* removable storage in devices running iOS. So what is the reason the users are crawling back to iOS? What is it buying them? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Write storage on Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() returns the non-removable external memory location. But I see what you mean, on devices with only removable external memory, it could return that location. However, the point remains that the framework only considers one external storage as general purpose R/W storage. Let me make it clear, I am not against the ability for the API to return all the available external storage locations. I am merely pointing out the possible rationale behind the decisions in the system.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Write storage on Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7
Thanks. Very interesting indeed. I see that there is a long history with this. Anyway I see a direct contradiction is Dianne's responses: *The current CDD requires that the API return the directory of the primary external storage, that is the one you can count on always being there, that is the internal storage partition of such devices. * * * and this *...it makes perfect sense for the original device configurations where all media storage was on the external SD card. When manufacturers started putting that storage into the internal device, the name became unfortunate. * The CDD requires that external storage be non-removable and at the same time the API expected it to be removable? Looks like this thing was very poorly thought out from the beginning the Android team and made worse by device manufacturers. Also IMHO, the reference to StorageManager is a red herring.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Write storage on Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7
I think this behavior does make some sense. The non-removable external storage is what the platform expects the apps to use to read/write arbitrary files. So this location is made visible to the apps via the Environment API. The removable external storage is expected to be used to swap in/out media files by the users. As such, applications don't have direct access to it but the media scanner does and makes them available to users via the media player applications. The removable external storage by design is not made available to applications for general purpose storage simply because it's not expected to be present all the time and is explicitly intended for read-only media files. If your app/users need to create very large files, you need devices with huge amounts of internal storage or you need to work out an alternate mechanism such as cloud storage. Handheld portable devices are not general purpose computers (yet). You should not expect to use them as one. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Stop listview from updating previous items and only update current items
The MarkChat.Name.get() returns the same value for all your list items.
That is causing the name to be the same for all items. It should return the
name based on the position of the item in the adapter.
Also, as Justin noted, your ViewHolder usage seems to be incorrect. Try
something like below:
*if* (convertView == null) {
h = new ViewHolder();
v = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.oddbubble, null);
h.title = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.BuddyTitle);
h.body = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.BuddyMessage);
v.setTag(h);
} *else* {
h = convertView.getTag();
}
h.body.setText(groupsMessage.get(position));
h.title.setText(MarkChat.Name.get(position));

Justin, You are right. In that case, I think the culprit is the flag. It is supposed to be true for incoming and false for outgoing. But, it remains static while listview is building its items.

[android-developers] Re: Correct unit of Sensor.getPower() ?
JP, You ask a question and then insult the only person who tries to help with a very pointed (and correct) answer. The power in VA is meaningless in this context as the battery capacity is always given in terms of mAH. Please notice that voltage is missing here since it does not matter. What matters is how long a a battery can supply a given current at its rated voltage. 3800mAH means that it can supply 3800mA for 1 hour. Knowing this it makes sense now that the API is providing the current drain as a metric of power consumption. You can now calculate how much effect it will have on the battery life as a function of time. API providing you with wattage or VA figure would be completely useless.

[android-developers] Re: unable to resize a button at onCreate() method of new activity
You need to allow the gui thread to finish the layout and display the views before their metrics are set. Use Handler.postDelayed() to run your code. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: unable to resize a button at onCreate() method of new activity
That would be an option but judging by what he is trying to do I don't think he is at a stage where he can write his own custom layout classes at the moment :) You have to tailor the response according to the audience. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Agreed.

[android-developers] Re: ProgressDialog results in a FC
Are you calling this activity using startActivity(intent)? or are you explicitly calling the onCreate() from your GolfCaddie activity? If the latter then it will not work as you are bypassing a lot of activity setup logic that is needed. Using DBHelper.this as the context will not work as the context is not setup properly. Overall, DBHelper should not be an activity. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: ProgressDialog results in a FC
Another issue is that even if it was working, the progress dialog would never show up as you are blocking the GUI thread. You should use an AsyncTask and show the progress dialog in onPreExecute(), do all the db operations in doInBackground() and dismiss the dialog in onPostExecute(). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: ProgressDialog results in a FC
You must be passing the DBHelper.this as the Context parameter when it clearly would not be if DBHelper was not an Activity. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: ProgressDialog results in a FC
DBHelper should take the Context object as a parameter in the ctor. Use this passed context in the call to ProgressDialog.show(). When you instantiate the DBHelper object in GolfCaddie activity, pass this as the parameter in the ctor. Also make sure you call the DBHelper method to create the db in an AsyncTask as I explained earlier. The said AsyncTask should be in GolfCaddie Activity. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
