Uhmthe root of the error is at that line 87 of your BTD...Activity.
What's at that line?

is it: SetBluetoothDevice pairedDevices = mBtAdapter.getBondedDevices(); ?
ant it might be that mBtAdapter is null (by reading the docs it says that
BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter() returns null when bluetooth is not
supported -
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothAdapter.html#getDefaultAdapter()
 ).
Maybe you are using the emulator to run this? (AFAIK the emulator doesn't
support bluetooth)

so, just add a if (mBtAdapter != null) { ... rest of your code .. }

At this point it might be useful if you manage to create a very small

   I will...thanks.
 
  And there it is...99% sure that's the issue.

 And I was wrong...no change.  :-(

 In the manifest, between the application and activity tags, I added
   android:allowTaskReparenting=true
 and
   android:launcherMode=singleTop  (as opposed to the default, standard)

 I added the reparenting one first, tested it...force close.  Then I
 re-read what you wrote above, and changed launchmode from standard (it
 wasn't specified, thus was the default) to singleTop.  Still force
 closes on exit given the very specific sequence of events I listed
 earlier.

 So, I'm back to being confused again.  :-(

 Here's a question:  can I assume that installing from the Market, and
 using Open from there, pause, resume via icon, and exit will result
 in the same force close as side-loading does?  Or am I most likely
 chasing a ghost...a non-issue that only affects it when side-loaded?
 I'm inclined to believe that if I'm seeing it, someone else will, too.

Re: [android-developers] Re: camera app FC/no FC dep. on startup method

So, I played a bit with this Snapshot project. First of all, I'm using the
Motorola Xoom with ICS (4.0.3).
I tried following your steps (side load, press home, start from app drawer,
press back) and indeed I got the crash. What's really odd is that in this
scenario when you press 'back' it doesn't call surfaceDestroyed(), but
instead it calls surfaceCreated(), which doesn't really make sense.

Anyway, I tried adding a different launchMode to the Snapshot
activityandit worked! I used 'singleTop'.

activity android:name=.SnapShot

android:label=@string/app_name

android:launchMode=singleTop

intent-filter

action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /

category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /

/intent-filter

/activity

Maybe it's a Honeycomb thing? I uploaded here the test apk which works for
me (again, on ICS): http://www.mediafire.com/?eylmq4aomurc9do

Let me know if it works also for you..


Ciao,
Yuvi

 This is the book example I've been working from:

   http://www.jstrack.org/snapshot.zip

 (it's small, and I'd post it here, but I don't know if the list handles
 attachments).  It force closes the same way, only after one specific
 sequence of events (again, side-load, run from installer's
 Open/Uninstall, pause via Home button, resume via icon).  Again, it
 ONLY does this when you resume via the icon---resuming via Honeycomb's
 active apps listing works fine.  The strange thing is that in all cases
 except the force-close case, pausing the app closes the camera and the
 preview, and then restarts them on resume, where the force-close sequence
 has them NOT being stopped, and just picked back up on resume (and then,
 of course, force close on exit).

 Thanks,

Re: [android-developers] Re: camera app FC/no FC dep. on startup method

No problem :)

Unfortunately I don't really know what's happening..it seems like the
Installer launches apps in some 'strange' way, while the app drawer uses a
different way and...dunno something odd happens :S
(lol not really useful! eheh)

If someone could explain that it would be great.

 Funny...I tried that yesterday.  I must have made a typo or something.
 Anyways, I downloaded the new apk, and it worked.  I don't understand
 why, or how, but it worked.

 Now if I can just find out why, after a reboot this morning, my camera
 now has a lot of red noise (this started happening a while back...it
 changes with reboots...Acer wants me to do a factory reset---their
 mickeysoft-ish answer to everything).

 Anyways, THANKS!  Now I can comfortably get back to work on this beastie.

Re: [android-developers] Issue with OnClick

If you use a Dialog (e.g. AlertDialog) then you need to use
DialogInterface.OnClickListener (
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/DialogInterface.OnClickListener.html
).
If you use a View then it's View.OnClickListener (
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.OnClickListener.html
 ).

Check also your imports and look if you see some odd/wrong ones. (sometimes
it happens that you import the wrong class...it happened a lot to me with
the various LayoutParams classes).

Hey,

if you want to send simple data between two apps (on the same device) you

Re: [android-developers] Re: camera app FC/no FC dep. on startup method

Hey,

I'm not sure as to what is going wrong exactly...but you might want to
check the launchMode of your activity/ies.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#lmode


I remember I had a similar issue in the past (not with the camera though)
when I launched an app from the Market (where it shows the 'Open' and
'Uninstall' buttons), then pressed home, and started that same app from the
app drawer.

Hope it helps somehow.

 No change.  Keep in mind, this happens when exiting from the app.
 AND, it *ONLY* happens if the app is run from the install Open
 option, AND if the user pauses the app via the Home button, AND
 if the user then returns to the app via the app icon (as opposed
 to the Honeycomb active apps listing).  Any other combination
 doesn't force close on exit (i.e., exits normally, as shown both
 by a normal exit and by logcat showing a clean exit).

 I'm completely and utterly confused about a number of things here:

 1) Why would the app only FC on exit with the above combination?
   Why not FC when opened via the app icon and resumed via the icon?
   Why not FC when opened either way and resumed either way (HC
   active apps display or app icon)?

 2) Why is the app behaving differently when paused/restarted with
   the above combination (i.e., in all other cases, the camera is
   closed on pause, and re-opened on resume); in that one case above,
   the camera is not closed on pause, and is simply accessed again
   when the app resumes.

 Maybe there's some mysterious difference between these variables that
 I don't know about, but it's driving me nuts.  I'm just about ready
 to scrap the existing code and start over.  But, as one friend/developer
 has suggested, it could even be a bug in the firmware on my A500who
 knows?  I don't, that's for sure.  :-(

Re: [android-developers] Avoiding FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION error when updating lots of widget bitmaps

I think I found the problem...and it looks like it's an Android bug.
Drawable.createFromStream() doesn't take as parameter a Resources object,
and later it calls Drawable.createFromResourceStream() passing 'null' as
the Resources parameter.
From my understanding the resources are then used to ensure that the
drawable will set its target density correctly, but by being 'null' some
default density is used.

 Hi Dianne,

 thanks for your reply. The problem is that I'm using
 RemoteViews.setImageViewUri(), so I don't have a bitmap object to set the
 density.
 The Uri I'm using is content://... which reaches my ContentProvider at
 the method openFile(Uri,String).

 I looked at the Android source code and I see that ImageView.setImageUri()
 uses resolveUri(), and for the content scheme it
 calls 
 Drawable.createFromStream(mContext.getContentResolver().openInputStream(mUri),
  null);
 which calls my openFile() method, which I implemented like this:
 public ParcelFileDescriptor openFile(Uri uri, String mode) throws
 FileNotFoundException {
 File file = new File(getContext().getFilesDir(), MyFile.png);

 return ParcelFileDescriptor.open(file,
 ParcelFileDescriptor.MODE_READ_ONLY);
 }

 I don't see where I can change the density to use. :(


 Thanks,
 Yuvi

 Hi,

 sorry to resurrect this post...but I got into a similar problem. And as
 the OP did, I'm using RemoteViews.setImageViewUri() to set my image on the
 appwidget. However I noticed that my image is being scaled according to the
 screen density.

 So, for example, on an XHDPI screen, if I have a bitmap which is 100x100
 and I set it using setImageViewBitmap() I get the image to look as 100x100.
 However, if I store that bitmap into a png on disk, and then use
 setImageViewUri() my bitmap is displayed as 50x50.

 Do you know if there is a way to change this behavior? (i.e. if my image
 is 100x100 I'd like it to remain 100x100 also after it is decoded).
 Maybe there is a way to force some density on the ImageView itself?

 My only workaround (which sucks..) is to scale-up the bitmap before
 storing on disk so that when it is being decoded I get back my original
 size. But in this way I use more memory to save the image and I also loose
 image quality..:(

 I hope someone can help me!
 Thanks,
 Yuvi

Re: [android-developers] Intent choosing

As Mark suggests it's always good to leave the user a choice.

However if you really want to start that player you can add to the intent
its package name, so that the filtering is limited to that package.

intent.setPackage(com.mobo...);


Hope it helps,

Re: [android-developers] To make a separate tablet HD version or an Universal one?

2012-02-20 Thread YuviDroid

Considering 1.5 users are 0.6% of the total Android devices (according to
http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/platform-versions.html) I
would abandon 1.5 support :)

Otherwise you could considering creating a separate app, since the Market
allows multiple apk uploads for different targets. However I believe it
would be a pain to maintain future updates, unless you use somehow the
Library setup for this.


Cheers,

Re: [android-developers] Avoiding FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION error when updating lots of widget bitmaps

2012-02-18 Thread YuviDroid

Hi Dianne,

thanks for your reply. The problem is that I'm using
RemoteViews.setImageViewUri(), so I don't have a bitmap object to set the
density.
The Uri I'm using is content://... which reaches my ContentProvider at
the method openFile(Uri,String).

I looked at the Android source code and I see that ImageView.setImageUri()
uses resolveUri(), and for the content scheme it
calls 
Drawable.createFromStream(mContext.getContentResolver().openInputStream(mUri),
null);
which calls my openFile() method, which I implemented like this:
public ParcelFileDescriptor openFile(Uri uri, String mode) throws
FileNotFoundException {
File file = new File(getContext().getFilesDir(), MyFile.png);

return ParcelFileDescriptor.open(file,
ParcelFileDescriptor.MODE_READ_ONLY);
}

I don't see where I can change the density to use. :(


Thanks,
Yuvi

 Hi,

 sorry to resurrect this post...but I got into a similar problem. And as
 the OP did, I'm using RemoteViews.setImageViewUri() to set my image on the

 screen density.

 So, for example, on an XHDPI screen, if I have a bitmap which is 100x100
 and I set it using setImageViewBitmap() I get the image to look as 100x100.
 However, if I store that bitmap into a png on disk, and then use
 setImageViewUri() my bitmap is displayed as 50x50.

 Do you know if there is a way to change this behavior? (i.e. if my image
 is 100x100 I'd like it to remain 100x100 also after it is decoded).
 Maybe there is a way to force some density on the ImageView itself?

 My only workaround (which sucks..) is to scale-up the bitmap before
 storing on disk so that when it is being decoded I get back my original
 size. But in this way I use more memory to save the image and I also loose
 image quality..:(

 I hope someone can help me!

 As expected, I was missing something obvious: my linear_layout_entry

 So the first one was filling the parent and leaving no room for the rest

Re: [android-developers] Re: AutoScroll ListView at specified intervals without user intervention

Ok, now it's clearer :)

The two links I gave you should help with auto-scroll part.
With the time intervals you might use a Timer (
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html), or make use
of the AlarmManager (
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html).
I'm not sure though if any of these will be precise enough, so that you
remain perfectly in sync with the audio being played. Maybe there are some
classes/methods that allow to do that better directly in the MediaPlayer
(or SoundPool).


Ciao,
Yuvi

Re: [android-developers] Dynamically populating LinearLayout in an AppWidget

Hey,

 Folks,

 I'm getting my feet wet on app widgets so I'm probably missing something
 obvious, but I've hit a snag that's got me stumped.
 Basically, I cannot seem to dynamically add more than one instance of the
 same layout to a LinearLayout living in a RemoteViews object. Only the *
 first* item gets added.
 Has anyone seen anything like that?

 Here's more detail to clarify: I've got something like this in an
 IntentService that creates a list of objects to display.


 // Create remote view for main widget layout
 RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
 R.layout.widget_layout);

 // list is some list of objects populated in the IntentService
 for (int i = 0; i  list.size(); i++)
 {
 // Create remote view for the object to add to linear layout
 RemoteViews v = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
 R.layout.linear_layout_entry);

 // ... Set Text on text views in v for the current object

 // Add new view to the linear layout in the widget
 views.addView(R.id.ll_widget, v);
 }

 AppWidgetManager man = AppWidgetManager.getInstance(this);
 man.updateAppWidget(widgetID, views);


 Now, this works as expected for the first item in the list. However, all
 others seem to be getting ignored - my widget only shows the first entry in
 the list even though there is plenty of room.
 I've stepped through the loop and it's definitely getting populated and I
 can see that the main views RemoteViews object has multiple nested
 views that should be my dynamic views, but they just don't appear.

 If I manually add instances of the layout (the one I'm inflating) to the
 linear layout via the designer, they show up.
 If I dynamically add instances of *different* layouts to the LinearLayout
 one after the other, they show up.
 If I dynamically add instances of *the same layout* to the LinearLayout,
 then only the first shows up.

 So apparently I can only add one instance of a given layout to a
 LinearLayout for a widget? That does not seem right at all ...

 I've gone though the docs and samples and searched this list,
 StackOverflow, and b.android.com and not found anything about this.
 There are no warnings or errors in the LogCat. I've tried on my 2.3.3
 device and various emulators and no dice.

 I can hack this up and manually add a bunch of the layouts and not use the
 ones I don't need, but I really feel like this should work.
 Anyone else seen this while working on widgets and have a clue what I'm
 doing wrong?

 Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] SlidingDrawer - Setting height moves the view up

2012-01-24 Thread YuviDroid

Are you setting fill_parent to the SlidingDrawer or RelativeLayout (in

Anyway, since you are using a RelativeLayout you can try setting on the
SlidingDrawer android:layout_alignParentBottom=true. (maybe though you'll
need to set the RelativeLayout height to fill_parent).

Re: [android-developers] how to select listview from multiple listviews in main.xml (on Android 2.3.3)

2011-12-25 Thread YuviDroid

Hi,

I believe you are using a ListActivity, which by default looks for a
ListView with id @android:id/list. To use custom ids change that
ListActivity to a normal Activity.

 hi all,
 I'm using FrameLayout and have defined two LinearLayouts embedded inside
 the FrameLayout. Now for each LinearLayout I've a listview . The problem
 I'm facing is picking the two listviews separately from my Java side code.
 The default listivew in XML uses the standard defined ID as 
 *android:id=@id/android:list
 *and I'm not able to pick the right one. So I decided to give custom ids
 to each of the list view like this in Layout1:
   ListView
 android:id=@+id/list1
 android:layout_width=fill_parent
 android:layout_height=fill_parent /

 and the following in Layout2

   ListView
 android:id=@+id/list2
 android:layout_width=fill_parent
 android:layout_height=fill_parent /

 and this is what I'm trying to use to pick the listviews separately,

   ListView listView1 = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list1);
   ListView listView2 = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list2);

 With the above code in pace, I'm not getting any compilation errors. But
 during run time I'm getting errors with this message:
 *  java.lang.RuntimeException: Your content must have a ListView
 whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.list'*

 Are we not allowed to use custom IDs for listviews? If custom IDs are not
 allowed, then what is the best way to handle the above problem? Would
 appreciate if someone could point me to the right direction.

 BTW, I'm actually trying to define two layouts each with its own listview
 and then I'm trying to animate between two UI screens each using one layout
 and the default behavior gives only one of the listivew as picked by
 getListView() which happens to be the 1st one, so my 2nd UI page is not
 showing any listview.


 Thanks,
 KK

 ICS can't loop audio seamlessly with more than one core, when using
 MediaPlayer-setLooping(true).  This is a major bug that is causing
 problems for my applications.  I have a sample project below
 demonstrating the issue.

 I have included a link to a very simple eclipse project that you can
 use to test for the setLooping bug.  This bug doesn’t seamlessly loop
 an audio file.  It plays a simple sine wave that can be used to easily
 detect if your device is displaying the bug.  I have also provided the
 direct like to the apk file as well.

 I feel this bug is an important bug to get fixed.  Although this is a
 simple example, it has real world problems including:

 *Looped music playback
 *Sound machine type applications
 *Game sample loops


 I feel this bug hurts the Android platform and encourages the
 ‘fragmentation’ fault argument.  Some devices/firmware don’t present
 the bug while others do.  For example, almost every recent Motorola
 device has the bug, but most HTC devices don’t.  The Xoom shipped
 without the bug, but a firmware update introduced the bug (I don’t
 know which version introduced it).

 I have an application, SleepyTime, which used to be available on all
 devices but now isn’t available on many devices on the Android Market
 because the bug is present on those devices.  This creates a bad user
 experience for the user because:

 *A user on phone A can get the app, but a user on phone B may not be
 able to.
 *A user with phone X paid for the app, then upgrades to phone Z, which
 can’t get the app because this device has the bug, and now doesn’t
 understand why they can’t download the application they paid for.

 To anyone experiencing this bug, please run this application on any
 device you have access to and report the Android version, kernel,
 device name, and weather the bug is present.  We need to give the
 engineers as much information as possible if we want this to get
 resolved.  Please get as many people as possible to start this bug to
 give it more visibility.

Re: [android-developers] Android Market - Why does my first App say it is only available to 18 devices?

The problem is with  android:minSdkVersion=14 .
API 14 is Ice Cream Sandwich...which is not available to many devices right
now (actually officially I only know 2..Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S).

You can lower the minSdkVersion to 3 or 4 (Android 1.5 or 1.6), but make
sure you are not using any APIs that are ICS only..otherwise...VerifyError

[android-developers] TextView ellipsize marquee on Ice Cream Sandwich

2011-12-20 Thread YuviDroid

Hey there,

I found something strange about ellipsize=marquee on my Galaxy Nexus...or
better...it doesn't work. Instead of seeing nice fading edges at the end of
the word (when the word doesn't fit the view of course), you get the normal
dots (...).
After some digging through the ICS source code I found, in the
ViewConfiguration class, this (which enables/disables the fading edge for
marquee):

mFadingMarqueeEnabled =
res.getBoolean(com.android.internal.R.bool.config_ui_enableFadingMarquee);

For some reason on the Galaxy Nexus (Android 4.0.1) this is actually
false. Do you have any idea on why is that?
I also tried with Android 4.0.3 on the Nexus S, with the same results.

As a test, I tried using Reflection to force the value
of mFadingMarqueeEnabled to true. And while it does work in my own
Activities, in doesn't work on AppWidgets (and that's where I'm actually
using this).

Do you know if it's actually possible somehow to change the boolean value
of com.android.internal.R.bool.config_ui_enableFadingMarquee? (I believe
not... :( )

On the emulator (tested both with Android 4.0 and 4.0.3) this is actually
set to true.


If you have an ICS device could you check if fading edges work for you? (a
quick way to check this is to place on your homescreen an app with a long
name - e.g. News  Weather - and see if it shows .. at the end of the
name, or if it fades nicely).


Thank you,
Cheers,
Yuvi

[android-developers] Someone has the Galaxy Nexus? :)

Hey everyone,

while I'm waiting for the Galaxy Nexus to be available here in Switzerland
I was wondering if somebody who already has it he's willing to quickly test
my app to see how it works there?
(especially with respect to the high screen resolution screen and the
'menu' key not being present). Btw is the Galaxy Nexus a hdpi or xhdpi
device?

I already tested on the emulator (well...kind of...) and on my Nexus S with
ICS 4.0.1...but I'm really curious to test it on the real thing :)

Re: [android-developers] Re: Setting Alpha for an imageView in a homescreen widget

Since Android 2.2 the method setAlpha() of ImageViews has become
@RemoteViewable (or something like that, I don't remember that annotation).
So you can simply call RemoteViews.setInt (viewId, setAlpha, value).

I haven't tried it myself, but I believe it should work..

 If your dynamically created images aren't too complex, you might
 also use something similar to the XML shape drawables. Opposed to 9-

 them with setImageViewResource. Maybe it works likewise if you create

Re: [android-developers] app2sd - not working

2011-01-05 Thread YuviDroid

Just a guess:
the problem might be here: uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=4 /

you should probably also specify the targetSdkVersion to be = 8.

Again, it's just a guess ;)

Re: [android-developers] Re: app2sd - not working

2011-01-05 Thread YuviDroid

I was talking about targetSdkVersion, not minSdkVersion.
The entry in the manifest should look like this: uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion=4 android:targetSdkVersion=8 /

Btw on your test phone can you install your app on sdcard?

 I followed this tutorial:

 Doesn't it filter the app so only people with version 8 or greater can
 download my app?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Getting a test version of an .apk to a end user

2011-01-04 Thread YuviDroid


 Note: because you will have the tester install out-of-band from the
 Market, the tester will need to uninstall the App first.


But if you sign the apk with the same key that has been used to upload the
app on Market the user should be able to update the app without uninstalling
it. (at least I tried that with my own apps and it worked fine..)

Usually I send the apk by email, and tell the user to use a file manager to
install it. Then if he doesn't have 'Unkown
sources' checked he will just get a warning when trying to install and if I
remember correctly there should be also a popup with instructions on
how/where to enable it.

 Then there was a flaw in the original firmware that has since been

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to get Icon of user defined default application

2010-12-17 Thread YuviDroid

How are you going to let the user choose what action to take when this
super button is pressed?
Probably you will show some list of apps that the user will manually select,
right? If that's the case then once the app is selected you know exactly the
application and you can get its icon, etc...

Ok this is what I want to do:

I have a button in my app, lets call it a super button. I let the user
define the action of this button. The user can select options such as:
send SMS, send an Email, open a browser, etc...

I would like the icon of this button to be the icon of the users
preferred application for that function. This is simple to do when a
user has actually selected a default application. I can iterate
through the list of preferred apps and check each one to see if it
matches the action of the super button.

However, if the user only has the stock SMS or email client installed
then the application will not show up in the preferred application
list. I can get a list of installed packages and applications with
their associated icons, however, what I am trying to figure out is
this:

how can I take the list of installed applications and figure out which
one, of the many installed, is the sms application. I've tried to use
the dataScheme identifier but I am unable to get that information
using the methods provided by
getPackageManager().getInstalledPackages() or
getPackageManager().getInstallApplications

Does this help clarify my problem?

The rest is controlled by the user - sharing by SMS, email, instant

been
invented yet. Your application will be ready for any of them.

If this requirement comes from a pointy-haired boss, explain the Android
way and hopefully they'll understand.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Reducing 1 star ratings for IM; strategies

2010-12-16 Thread YuviDroid

What I was thinking of trying was to create a little app that has an icon
so the user would have something to click on. from there I could tell them
what they need to know.

Probably with this solution you would get comments like Shouldn't appear in
the app drawer!!...1-star.
I got comments like those with a clock-widget, where the main Activity just
showed instructions... at the end I made that activity category
android:name=android.intent.category.INFO /, in this way it didn't appear
in the app-drawer but users could press the Open button through the Market
and get the instructions.
Maybe you could try something like that.

That's just for HTC widgets on the HTC homescreen...and unfortunately they
don't expose any API for us devs, so we cannot make scrollable widgets that
would work on the Sense homescreen or stock launcher.

However, you can create scrollable widgets for 3rd-party launchers (like
LauncherPro, ADW, Home++, etc.) that support those. Take a look here:

Please any suggestion will be welcome.

So...if you have 2 items in your listview and you delete one...and call your

Probably you just have to empty the list before re-adding the items that are
in the db.

Can't you just refresh the listview instead of creating a new Activity?
If you instead really want to create a new one, before calling
startActivity() call finish(), so that pressing back will skip that old
list activity.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Free version to Paid version

2010-12-07 Thread YuviDroid

To maintain two versions of the app, I personally simply use a static
boolean RELEASE_DEMO, that I set to true when releasing the demo one.
It's just a little pain that you have to rename the packages, and eventually
some code if it references the package in some hard-coded way. But at least
I don't have two completely separate applications in which case I would have
to keep copying/pasting every fix/modification/feature/etc...

If you combine that with TreKing's idea of a button in the settings,
and you have a pretty good chance that the user will know they have
the option.

I must say, I'm happy that the users will have a chance to try it free

Re: [android-developers] Sending custom intents from application to service

In your AndroidManifest.xml, under your receiver, you should also create an
intent-filter with your custom action. Then create an Intent using the
constructor Intent (String action) (by passing your custom action), and
send the broadcast.

I found here a simple example which might help:

 I have now spent many days trying to simply pass a custom intent using
 BroadcastReceiver. I can't find a single example on the net of doing
 this between two different applications. In desperation I post my best
 guess as to what should work, although I have tried many permutations.
 Stepping through with the debugger and I find the sendBroadcast is
 executed but nothing is ever received.

 Any help on where I am wrong, or to some code that I can use as an
 example, may stop me going crazy:

 My sender has the following on a button click:

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClassName(pack.name,
 pack.name.rtestactivity);
sendBroadcast(intent);

 My receiver has the following manifest:

 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
  package=pack.name
  android:versionCode=1
  android:versionName=1.0
application android:icon=@drawable/icon android:label=@string/
 app_name
  activity android:name=.rtestactivity
  android:label=@string/app_name
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category
 android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filter
/activity
receiver android:name=rtestactivity$AlarmReceiver/receiver
 /application

 /manifest

 and the following Java:

 package pack.name;
 import android.app.Activity;
 import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
 import android.content.Context;
 import android.content.Intent;
 import android.os.Bundle;
 import android.view.View;
 import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
 import android.widget.Button;
 import android.widget.Toast;

 public class rtestactivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
// set up a button to show mysemaphore value
final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button01);
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(rtestactivity.this, mysemaphore,
 Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
  }
  });

}

public static String mysemaphore =not received;

public static class AlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
 @Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent){
{
mysemaphore = Received;
}

   }
 }
 }

 Always the same. Whatever I do, the receiver is not called - the
 debugger steps through the sendintent, but nothing seems to happen.

 I write in desperation.

 Thankyou for any help you can provide.

 Your reply gives me hope :)

 But can you provide me with more information on how to do it ?

 I have a gradient alpha png.
 I just use it in imageView inside an XML resource.
 I don't set the dither option (although have tried both true and false
 options with same result)
 And I get the bands.

 Do I need to draw the image by hand, and which API must I use in that
 case ?

  cpu cycles and speed up image decoding where it normally will not have

  When you are doing compositing though it does make a difference, and
  you need to be specific as to how you want the image decoded.
 
  Like I said before, you need to manually define your options to ensure
  it uses ARGB_ when decoding the image, disable dithering and
  scaling.
 
  Do this and you will no longer have banding.

Re: [android-developers] Setting Widget Icon Image on Widget Load

2010-10-21 Thread YuviDroid

I'm not sure what's wrong with your code and I'm kind of guessing
here...but:

- onEnabled() is only called when the FIRST widget is created. So, if you
try to add a second widget to the homescreen this method will not be called.
Also, maybe, when onEnabled() is called the widget actually does not exist
yet? So your updateAppWidget() is probably doing nothing.

- try moving this piece of code to the onUpdate() method of your widget
provider (which is called whenever the widget requires an update).

- are you setting other RemoteViews objects in your onReceive() method?

Re: [android-developers] App without Launcher Icon

2010-10-13 Thread YuviDroid

If you just remove your main activity from the Manifest (or better, remove
the intent-filter) your app will simply not appear in the Launchers app
drawer.

So, remove this:
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filter

Hope it helps,

This is probably obvious to the rest of you, but. . .

What is the proper way to do that?

If I don't have an application tag at all, that works, but I don't
think that is the proper way, since provider and receiver are also
inside application.

I've tried this after first run,

//Remove this app from the Launcher
pkgMgr.setComponentEnabledSetting(
new ComponentName(PACKAGE_NAME,
PACKAGE_NAME + .LicenseActivity),

PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_DISABLED,
PackageManager.DONT_KILL_APP);

But the user experience is *unacceptable*. Instead of being removed,
the icon sticks around and says 'Application not installed' until they
reboot their phone, or, more likely, go for the refund.

Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Sound loop - with pause in between

2010-09-27 Thread YuviDroid

You could create an array with the stuff you want to play (probably holding
your various R.raw.x). Then keep a reference to the current playing file
(e.g. an index to the array), and when the onCompletion() method is called
switch to the next file, play it, and update the global reference.

By looking at the API I couldn't find a handy method to change the data
source to resource id (like the one in the create(Context context, int
resId) method). So, maybe you'll have to keep creating new MediaPlayer
instances. (if you do so, remember to call release() after a file has
finished playing).

The View gets updated only after your method is done executing. So, when you
call setImageResource() the view is not immediately updated. You should use
a separate thread for your for loop, and I can think of 2 options right now:

1. Use a Thread and a Handler to update the UI (
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/faq/commontasks.html#threading)

2. Use an AsyncTask (
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html)

Hope it helps,

 some sounds (audio_up.mp3, audio_l.mp3 and so on). I want go through
 all the strings in the array and play sounds accordingly with pause in
 between (let's say 1 second).

 for (int a = 0; a  string_Array_String.length; a++) {
MediaPlayer mp = null;
if
 (string_Array_String[a].equals(UPL)) {
mp =
 MediaPlayer.create(Game.this, R.raw.audio_upl);
} else if
 (string_Array_String[a].equals(UP)) {
mp =
 MediaPlayer.create(Game.this, R.raw.audio_up);
}

try {
mp.prepare();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch
 block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch
 block
e.printStackTrace();
}

mp.start();
 }

 This is OK but loop is faster than sound fields so I get overlaping -
 not good.

 I tried to put

try
{
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
catch(InterruptedException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}

 on the end of the loop but only first and second audio file are OK,
 the rest are cut too soon.

 Solution?

Re: [android-developers] My Application is not showing in Android Market.

2010-09-25 Thread YuviDroid

The HTC Wildfire is a QVGA phone, so you need to declare in your manifest
that your app supports such screens.
You'll need to add the supports-screens tag, see here for more details:

Re: [android-developers] Re: Using Eclipse - can it get faster?

I hope you have 2 Ghz cpu, and not Mhz :P hehe

Anyway, to the OP, if you have a large project then the Build
Automatically feature of Eclipse might be quite frustrating sometimes
(since every time you save a file, the project is compiled). You might try
disabling it (by selecting Project -- Build Automatically). Then you
can build your project manually.

Hope it helps,
Yuvi

important.

Hi all. I'm sure like many of you, I use Eclipse for my development.

The problem with it is, I find it incredibly memory hungry... it often
takes ages to load up, when I save a file it hangs for a while (saying
Building workspace in the bottom right hand corner), and is just
generally slow.

I wondered if anyone had any tips for streamlining it for Android. I
don't use it for anything else (if necessary, I will install a
separate instance for general Java stuff) so I can't help thinking
there are lots of modules and stuff I could get rid of which may help
it run more smoothly.

Anyone have some tips on this?

Re: [android-developers] refresh menu icon image

You can find that image in the android sdk folder, under
./platforms/android-XX/data/res/drawable-hdpi (or just drawable). Then look
for ic_menu_refresh.png.

In general you should use instead android.R.drawable.XX, but in this
case it seems that the refresh icon is not made public.

Re: [android-developers] refresh menu icon image

Ah ok, I didn't know that. I though it was a good idea so that with newer
versions of Android your images were automatically upgraded. Thanks for
the info!

 Actually, Google has advised against this.

 OEMs can, and do, change these images. The result may clash with the
 rest of your images. If you want the image to remain consistent, you
 need to copy it into your own app.

Re: [android-developers] setImageViewResource not working

Ciao Simone,

probably it's stupid to ask this, but just to be sure: have you called
updateAppWidget() after setting the RemoteViews object? Like this:

appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, remoteViews);

 I have a simple widget (whose entire layout is just an ImageView) that

 So, i did this:

RemoteViews remoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
 R.layout.main);
remoteViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.imgView, R.drawable.image1);

...

return START_STICKY;

 and

 public void onDestroy(){
RemoteViews remoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
 R.layout.main);
remoteViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.imgView, R.drawable.off);

 But it doesn't work.  onStartCommand and onDestroy are called, but the
 image doesn't change.
 What gives?
