[android-developers] Re: Power event
I do something like this
private static BroadcastReceiver batteryInfo = new BroadcastReceiver()
{
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if(Intent.ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED.equals(action)) {
int level = intent.getIntExtra(level, 0);
int scale = intent.getIntExtra(scale, 100);
int plugged = intent.getIntExtra(plugged, 0);
int batteryLevel = level * 100 / scale;
.
.
.
}
}
}
the value of 'plugged' indicates whether the phone is on charge or
not. Normally a 2 indicates that the phone is on charge.

Option 1. Get hold of the APK from the developer and install it on your emulator Option 2. If the app is unprotected, use a backup utility to copy the APK off your phone and onto your SD card, then copy it onto the emulator install. Option 3. Make (or google for) an AVD with the market app installed. ;) On Jan 20, 7:33 pm, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: I suppose that there is probably several approaches to dealing with the situation at hand but after some quick checks online about it, I had conflicting thoughts as to what people were really doing/using. If one were to start testing communications with the ContentProviders and ContentResolver classes on the Android phone, it would be helpful if a couple applications that we would like to interact with could be tested through the emulator against our code that we are writing.

Can we not download an application from the market onto the emulator and then test communicate with the application? The emulators do not have the Android Market.

[android-developers] Re: Accelerometer on Motorola Droid
Hi, As PhoenixofMT said, calibration from factory is poor, but sufficient for most games and the like. I had to write a similar calibration routine into my software before I managed to get any realistic figures from the accelerometer. The user is required to sit the device in the various orientations, then you need to scale the device provided accelerometer readings proportionally with your calibrated ranges. I also found that changes in temperature affects calibration, so I recommend the user to calibrate the device every time they use the application :( .

I've been wanting to find a way to calibrate the accelerometers on my droid since I installed the tricorder app. It bugs me that the X and Y axes are off by about .2 ms^-2 in both orientations. In my searches for such a calibration method, I came across this post. The reason the accelerometers never measure zero is that there is always at least one axis being pulled by gravity. If the device is lying flat, the Z axis is pointing at (roughly) the center of the earth and should measure acceleration due to gravity (9.8 ms^-2). The other axes should be near zero, but the shoddy factory calibration makes this difficult. The company I work for manufactures marine inertial navigation systems that use accelerometers, gyros and a 3- axis electronic compass and I get to calibrate them from time to time.The way I do this (using a built in program that I've had nothing to do with) is to set the box on each side and have the calibration program take 10 readings from the relevant accelerometer, (it also takes readings from the electronic compass to help with those measurements, in case you're also working on a compass program). What I assume, is that the calibration program sets the reading from each orientation of each axis at +/- 9.2ms^-2. It probably also compares the differences in magnitudes of the signals from each sensor to further sharpen the accuracy, since I do not set these things perfectly vertical for the calibration. As long as the device is held in the same orientation within the calibration box and the outside of the box is square, the calibration program can figure it out. As for using the accelerometers to measure speed changes, I've been thinking about that to. It would be cool to, perhaps, augment a GPS speedometer with the accelerometers. Maybe to provide higher resolution without taxing the GPS receivers? In any case, its pretty complicated, I'd have to dig out my physics textbook to find the formulas. Even then it would probably take me a while to wrap my head around a combination of three axes. Then there is filtering out noise from, say, the vibrations of a car Any way, I hope I've been of some help. Good luck, I look forward to trying out your app. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Accelerometer on Motorola Droid
Hi PhoenixofMT, I've looked into augmenting the accelerometer data with GPS info. The major hurdle is not the physics, it's the resolution of the GPS data provided, which is only timestamped to the nearest second! This makes it extremely difficult the calculate any sort of realistic figures without a lot of assumptions. The accelerometer though, after proper calibration, does provide figures that allow for pretty accurate calculation of acceleration/ speed/distance/power/torque...

[android-developers] Re: Samsung devices and 3D performance
Samsung hardware drivers for 3D, Power, Accelerometer and Camera (amongst others) are dismal. I recommend not to buy a samsung if you need decent functionality from any of this hardware.

I understand that the Galaxy was missing a software component, and that once a surrogate was added, the 3D performance was acceptable. Does anybody have the real low-down on this issue?

[android-developers] SensorManager.registerListener gives unexpected results
I'm registering a sensor listener with this line of code. mSensorManager.registerListener(this,mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor (Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER), SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST); The rate is set to SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST with the expectation that I would receive events roughly every 20-30ms. It turns out that I receive events only every 200-220ms (just now, my event code simply logcats the system time). No matter which rate I use, SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL, SENSOR_DELAY_UI, SENSOR_DELAY_GAME, or SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST, I get the same result?

[android-developers] Re: sounpool problem
I had issues with this too, converting all music to mp3 fixed it.
I think there are weird bugs in soundpool relating to sample rates
with wav files.

when i do playSound() with 1, 2, 3 sound [wav file] with looping
false, they play fine. but if i call playSound any of the 4 files with
looping true, it does not work.
4th one is an mp3 file which neither plays with looping true nor
looping false.
can i create another mediaplayer object as a member variable and use
it for only background music ?

Add you bug to the list over at androidforums.com, samsung seem to
have a dreadful android/galaxy support team.

You can only rate once per google account. On Nov 7, 2:44 am, Maps.Huge.Info (Maps API Guru) cor...@gmail.com wrote: If you create an emulator on your PC that has a market app, then download it, you can rate it as many times as you can create emulators with the market app. Of course, this would be a lot of trouble for a couple of ratings. It would be far more useful to spend your time making your app better so actual users rate it highly. -John Coryat -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] onTrackballEvent hogging CPU time.
Hi, First post here, so excuse my French. I'm writing a little game which has an activity thread, a gui/ surfaceview/handler thread and a 3rd logic thread (emulating a cpu core). I am finding that when I move the trackball, the logic thread slows down dramatically until I stop moving the trackball. I've tried overriding the onTrackballEvent (in the gui view), leaving it empty and returning true to indicate I've handled it but no good, still slows down the 3rd thread. (I'm using the trackball to trigger onKeyUp/ Down events) Any ideas on why this is happening? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
