[android-developers] How to customize the lock screen?
I'm building a custom Home app. I want to change the lock screen to match my theme. Forexample changing the wallpaper. What I see in the lock screen now is the default wallpaper. I've tried searching this forum but can't find the solution. Yet I found some apps on the market that can do this.

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL texture corrupted when there's an interruption.
Hi. Thank you for your reply.
Actually I've done as you suggested. Here's my full onSurfaceCreated()
and my activity's onPause():
public void onSurfaceCreated(GL10 gl, EGLConfig config) {
frontTextureId = loadTexture(gl, frontTextureBitmap);
gl.glEnable(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D);
gl.glEnableClientState(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
gl.glEnableClientState(GL10.GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
gl.glShadeModel(GL10.GL_SMOOTH);
gl.glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.5f);
gl.glClearDepthf(1.0f);
gl.glEnable(GL10.GL_DEPTH_TEST);
gl.glDepthFunc(GL10.GL_LEQUAL);
gl.glHint(GL10.GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL10.GL_NICEST);
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
mySurfaceView.onPause();
}
While waiting for your answer I'll take a look at
TriangleRenderer.java again to see what is the difference between that
code and mine.
Thanks again.

[android-developers] OpenGL texture corrupted when there's an interruption.
I took the source from API demos (TriangleRenderer.java)
Here's the code on how textures are loaded in onSurfaceCreated():
/*
* Create our texture. This has to be done each time the
* surface is created.
*/
int[] textures = new int[1];
gl.glGenTextures(1, textures, 0);
mTextureID = textures[0];
gl.glBindTexture(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, mTextureID);
gl.glTexParameterf(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D,
GL10.GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER,
GL10.GL_NEAREST);
gl.glTexParameterf(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D,
GL10.GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER,
GL10.GL_LINEAR);
gl.glTexParameterf(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL10.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S,
GL10.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
gl.glTexParameterf(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL10.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T,
GL10.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
gl.glTexEnvf(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL10.GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE,
GL10.GL_REPLACE);
InputStream is = mContext.getResources()
.openRawResource(R.drawable.robot);
Bitmap bitmap;
try {
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch(IOException e) {
// Ignore.
}
}
GLUtils.texImage2D(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, bitmap, 0);
bitmap.recycle();
And here's how I mapped my texture:
/
public void onDrawFrame(GL10 gl) {
//Init
gl.glClear(GL10.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL10.GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.glMatrixMode(GL10.GL_MODELVIEW);
gl.glLoadIdentity();
//Draw Cube
gl.glPushMatrix();
gl.glTranslatef(0, 0, -2);
gl.glRotatef(azimuthZ, 0, 0, 1); //azimuthZ is
from the sensors
//texBuff and boxBuff are texture and box coordinates
gl.glTexCoordPointer(2, GL10.GL_FLOAT, 0, texBuff);
gl.glVertexPointer(3, GL10.GL_FLOAT, 0, boxBuff);
//top
gl.glDrawArrays(GL10.GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4);
//bottom
gl.glDrawArrays(GL10.GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 4, 4);
// followed by left, right, front and back
sides...
gl.glPopMatrix();
/
Problem:
1. The box is rendering normally.
2. I press 'Call' button, the Dialer app comes up.
3. I press 'Back' button. My box app comes up.
4. The texture became corrupted...
- This does not happen if I press back while in the box app, and re-
launch the box app.
- This also does not happen in the Textured Triangle in API demos.
I've no idea what did I do wrong. -_-
Thank you in advance.

[android-developers] OpenGL ES - How to get the current ModelView matrix?
There's a function that gets the current matrix in OpenGL.
But there's no such function in OpenGL ES.
So I take a look at the API Demo app bundled with the SDK and found
MatrixGrabber.java with the getCurrentModelView function.
But... when I try to use it in my project, I got an error at this
line:
public void getCurrentModelView(GL10 gl) {
getMatrix(gl, GL10.GL_MODELVIEW, mModelView);
}
private void getMatrix(GL10 gl, int mode, float[] mat) {
MatrixTrackingGL gl2 = (MatrixTrackingGL) gl; // error at
this line
gl2.glMatrixMode(mode);
gl2.getMatrix(mat, 0);
}
The error log was:
08-02 18:49:07.063: WARN/dalvikvm(1403): threadid=13: thread exiting

com.test.app.MyRenderer.onDrawFrame(MyRenderer.java:454)
Here's MyRenderer.java's onDrawFrame() code:
public void onDrawFrame(GL10 gl) {
//Init
gl.glClear(GL10.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL10.GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.glMatrixMode(GL10.GL_MODELVIEW);
gl.glLoadIdentity();
mGrabber.getCurrentModelView(gl);
What did I do wrong? This method runs fine in API Demo. It accept the
GL10 object like I did in my project.
Thank you in advance. =)

[android-developers] Orientation Sensor return false values. And getRotationMatrix() also doesn't work. Is my ADP1 broke?
Hi. I have 2 main questions:
Question 1. Orientation Sensor return false values. Or my dev phone 1
broke?
The 'pitch' value skip between 70 to 110.
Please take a look at the log:

my code does nothing but to print out the values:
//
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
int type = event.sensor.getType();
switch(type){
case Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION:
Log.d(onSensorChanged, Azimuth: + event.values[0] + , Pitch: +
event.values[1] + , Roll: + event.values[2]);
}
//
Question 2. How to get the getRotationMatrix() to work?
I read the SensorEvent docs and notice this:
Note: It is preferable to use getRotationMatrix() in conjunction with
remapCoordinateSystem() and getOrientation() to compute these values;
while it may be more expensive, it is usually more accurate.
So I think may be this can help me with my sensor problem in question
1.
So I tried using it and it always return false. (not successful and
nothing is filled in R[])
I made sure I give it correct set of parameters. (R[], I[],
valuesFromAccelSensor[], valuesFromMagneticSensor[])
I tried both 9 and 16 sizes arrays for both R and I. The method still
return false.
Thank you in advance! =)

[android-developers] How did they made those solve the math to dismiss the Alarm Clock type apps?
I saw few of them on the market. Actually I didn't download any of them yet.(I'm not in the country that can access paid app) But I'm just curious so allow me to ask those have access to these alarm clock apps. 1. User can just turn off the phone. How did the developer prevent user from turning-off the device? 2. If the user CAN turn off the device, how did the developer schedule the 'math' activity to start next time the device is turned on? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Modifying the built-in Alarm Clock. No way to return to the snooze/dismiss dialog.
(Please excuse my imperfect English) Hi. I'll get straight to the point. I downloaded the built-in Alarm Clock source and trying to modify it so that user need to play mini game in order to stop the alarm. What I did: 1. I removed the dismiss and snooze button. (so user will have no choice but to play mini-game to stop the alarm) 2. I also remove all dismiss() and snooze() from the dispatchKeyEvent () method. to ensure that the alarm won't stop even the user press back button and return to Home screen. 3. Now I plan to put my game in place of this alarm alert dialog(the one that come up when an alarm goes off) All I did is just for that - user will have no choice but to play mini-game to stop the alarm Problem: - alarm goes off. - I press 'back' button. The alert dialog(which soon will be my mini- game) disappear and return to Home screen. - Now I have no way to return to the dialog(my mini-game). And the alarm is still ringing... May I have some pointers? I've tried android:alwaysRetainTaskState=true but still no luck.

[android-developers] [repo/git/Ubuntu] Do I need to 'make' entire Android platform if I only want the Launcher?
Hi. My goal: - Re-build the (built-in)Launcher application and modify/re-skin it then publish as the new .apk. My current situation: 1. I installed Ubuntu on my machine and follow the instructions on this page: http://source.android.com/download 2. I successfully execute $ repo sync. Now the 2.1GB source is in my PC. My question: Allow me to ask before I continue to build the entire platform (which is said to take up to 6GB including the source). Q1. If I only need the Launcher then do I need to build the entire platform? Q2. I also read the page Using Eclipse for Android platform development here : http://source.android.com/using-eclipse and it said Important: You will still be using make to build the files you will actually run (in the emulator or on a device). You will be using Eclipse to edit files and verify that they compile, but when you want to run something you will need to make sure files are saved in Eclipse and run make in a shell. The Eclipse build is just for error checking. Does this also means I'll need to re-build the entire platform each time I make changes to the source? Thank you in advance. P.S. My apology if I sound stupid in your eyes. I actually am an artist and getting this far to install Ubuntu is already a miracle for me lol.

Hi. this is me: - My skill : 80% artist / 20% programming. - Now 6 months into Android development. - My goal is to use my art skills to customize the Launcher application. Current situation: (please forgive this long story) 1. I'm trying to build the Launcher application. 2. took the source from http://source.android.com/ using the Gitweb web interface. 3. downloaded the source snapshot, the one with the tag: master) 4. The project cannot be built. There are a lot of errors in the source code. I try to fix the source. // Now let me brief what I found. I shouldn't include ALL code here, right? *** 4.1 I removed a lot of code that I cannot fix. (eg. everything about the search widget, some wallpaper/notification-related code and many more) *** 4.2 I found these variables a lot: mScrollX, mScrollY, mLeft, mRight, mTop, mBottom. They are being used in the source files but the are NOT declared. So I declare them and try to give them value by calling getSrollX, getLeft, getTop, ... 5. Finally the project can be built and run on the G1 device. But it perform weird(as expected). the scrolling is not correct. Snapping to screen does not work correctly as well. 6. I tried so hard messing around 'Workspace.java' file. Finally things look a lot better now, better snapping and scrolling. 7. But trackball scrolling still produce weird behavior. There're screen orientation change bugs too. The 'docked' desktop shortcuts and widgets won't snap to screen. End of my story. I won't ask for a solution to each bugs. But since it took me 3 weeks now. I'd like to ask: Anyone succeed in building this Launcher app? Could you share your knowledge on how to do it? I'm just an artist who want to publish my art skill. It'd be a pleasure if anyone can point me to some error-free source code of this Launcher app. So I can focus on my art. I do hate asking for a solution like this. But I do believe I gave it enough (programming)effort as an artist. P.S. allow me to rant a bit: ... if the source code doesn't work then why do they give us in the first place? How can the public contribute back to google if we can not build the project? I don't get how this open-source/accept public contribution system work. Am I missing something?

[android-developers] Re: Spent 3 weeks building 'Launcher'(Home) application. Please help. T_T
Hi. Thank you for the fast reply. build the Android source tree from where I got Launcher's source ? I assume that can't be done in Windows, correct? according to this message from http://source.android.com/download : To build the Android source files, you will need to use Linux or Mac OS. Building under Windows is not currently supported. On Jul 28, 11:39 pm, Romain Guy romain...@google.com wrote: The source code works but cannot be compiled with the SDK. You need to build the Android source tree from where you got Launcher's source code and build Launcher in that tree. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] How to compare two (simple) images?
(please forgive my imperfect English.) Hi. I'll get straight to the point. Please note that I haven't code anything in this project just yet. This is only an idea. In human language, my goal is to: 1. Take a picture of a blank white A4 paper. 2. Verify (by code) that the picture is White. (this's why I include 'simple' in the topic) I mean, the program should be able to tell if the user just took the picture of white paper and not any other colors. For the code... I can guess that the actual process should be: 1. Use Camera API to take a picture. // this step should be easy 2. Convert it to Bitmap. // this step should also be easy 3. Verify that it is White. //*** now I need some help here. How can I do step 3? I look up the docs and found this is the Bitmap class: getPixels (int[] pixels, int offset, int stride, int x, int y, int width, int height) I can use this and compare the data pixel-by-pixel but it seems expensive. Could anyone recommend me a more proper way(if there is) to do this please?

[android-developers] How to get the list of built-in applications?
Hi. My apology for my imperfect English.
I'm trying to change the icons of the built-in applications.
I built the Launcher source obtained from the Android open source
project (ofcourse it doesn't work rightaway, need to make a lot of
modifications).
The list of built-in applications for Android 1.5 can be found in this
page:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.5.html
Now I can change these icons by comparing their name (eg. Alarm
Clock).
But this is a very bad solution. I don't know if it'll work with other
locales. Forexample, if the device is using Spanish locale, I don't
think the word Alarm Clock will work anymore.
So, topic.
Here's the code snippet found in LauncherModel.java where I can use my
own stupid method to alter the built-in apps icons.
//
for (int i = 0; i count !mStopped; i++) {
ResolveInfo info = apps.get(i);
ApplicationInfo application =
makeAndCacheApplicationInfo(manager,
appInfoCache, info);
// from here, this is what I don't want to do:
if(application.title.toString().equals(Alarm Clock));
application.icon = context.getResources
().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon_custom);
Thank you in advance.

[android-developers] - OpenGL - Question about gluProject().
Hi. My apology for my imperfect English. I'm new to OpenGL. Now I have 9 objects rotating / changing their color on the screen. Next, I'm trying to check if I touched them / which one of them just got touched. Or if I touched the empty spaces between them. I've read the document about http://developer.android.com/reference/android/opengl/GLU.html#gluProject%28float,%20float,%20float,%20float[],%20int,%20float[],%20int,%20int[],%20int,%20float[],%20int%29 but still have no idea about the required parameters or how/where to get them. I don't ask for the solution. But it'd be great if you can recommend me if I'm taking the right direction? Or please guide me to good places/resources where I can learn more about this.

[android-developers] Is it legal to customize and publish the built-in applications?
Like the Alarm Clock, Calculator, etc. I see that the source is available at : http://source.android.com/ For example, the alarm clock I'm going to modify will look exactly the same as the built-in one, but there'll be a lot more functions. Is it legal to extend the functionality of the Alarm Clock and publish it as paid application? I'm new to the open-souce stuff. I believe it's 99% doable but still want to ask just to make sure.

[android-developers] Is Idea protected by copyright?
If I publish a paid application with very good idea and concept. And realize later that someone already publish an app with this idea. What will happen? I understand that this may be difficult to answer. Perhaps I'm not posting this seeking for absolute answer, but for recommendations or a place where I can find more information and learn more about this kind of stuff.

[android-developers] Copyright question.
Hello. Is it ok if: 1. I took the source code of the built-in applications that come with the phone(like Alarm Clock, Dialler, etc.), extend it and publish as paid application. Well some of them will remain almost the same look. The user will know that I copied these apps from the built-in ones. But There will be many more functions added to the final apps, compared to the built- in ones. the source for built-int application can be found here: http://source.android.com/ or 2. I invented and publish(as paid app) some great app wtih great idea. For example, an alarm clock where user have to ... to stop the alarm, where ... is a very unique idea that make my app sell so well. But found out later that someone already published paid app using the same idea(which maybe on iPhone / JavaME or any other platform including Android itself). Question: Will I get into any copyright problem? I believe it's ok(especially in case No.1) but I still want to ask experts to make sure. Better safe than sorry, right? Please recommend a good place to find more information / learn more about how to avoid getting involved in this copyright/idea stealing stuff. If possible, please recommend a checklist of things to do before publishing your paid application. I do realize that Google have this list available in their Android Developer site. But that list said nothing about copyright stuff. My apology if it's stupid question. I'm quite new here.
