to be a device-specific bug)

Thanks Guys. Its working now.
So the process goes like this:
1. In your manifest file, make a activity and a receiver. Mention your
receiver class name here.
2. Make a entry foruses-permission android:name =
android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS
3. To test on emulator, test by DDMS perspective view.
4. You application will receive SMS while its dead too. in
Onreceive(), read the SMS and do whatever you want. you can also start
your activity from here.
Thanks

Hi,
Please note that there is no longer any class called IntentReceiver.
It is now called BroadcastReceiver. Also, to get this to work, you
need to register the receiver in the AndroidManifest.xml like this:
receiver android:name=.RespToSMS
intent-filter
action
android:name=android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED /
/intent-filter
/receiver

Hi Sam,
I think you should create a service for that!!! You can use Intent for SMS
in following way
public class RespToSMS extends IntentReceiver {
/* package name for Intent */
static final String ACTION =
android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED;
public void onReceiveIntent(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION)) {
StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder();
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
if (bundle != null) {
SmsMessage[] messages =
Telephony.Sms.Intents.getMessagesFromIntent(intent);
for (int i = 0; ilt; messages.length; i++) {
SmsMessage message = messages[i];
buf.append(message.getDisplayMessageBody());
/* Check your SMS format and respond here... */
}
}
NotificationManager nm = (NotificationManager)
context.getSystemService(
Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
nm.notifyWithText(123, buf.toString(),
NotificationManager.LENGTH_LONG, null);
}
}
}

Hi,
I have a requirement to wake up my application upon receiving a
particular formatted SMS or App directed notification from server.
My application is in dead state. Whenever the device receives a event
may be a SMS in a particular format OR some notification(eg app

application.
Its possible in Windows Mobile and BREW.
Please let me know if its possible in Android and how.

.withValue(StructuredName.FAMILY_NAME, lastName)
.build());
contentResolver.applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, operations);
but after this query, the contact name is not updated.. (at least the
name did not change in the phone's addressbook)
i cant figure out why...what am i doing wrong? must be a simple thing i
am missing..
thanks in advance

I have some questions concerning importing contacts to the device, which is extremely slow. First of all, if you delete all your contacts, google sync will restore it very quickly. However, when my app is adding contacts to the device, it's very slow (a few contacts per second). Even if I add almost empty contacts (with name only), it is a time-consuming process. If I turn google sync off, importing 5000 contacts can take 1-2 hours (on HTC Magic). When google sync is on it can take up to 24hours. And this happens despite the fact, that application for the whole time is in the foreground, device is connected to charger and screen is on. I checked the logcat to make sure my app is adding the contacts the whole time, and it is. I tried different methods and different devices. The results differ of course, yet manually adding contacts is always significantly slower that google sync. Is there any way that I can speed up the process?

hey,
try this. maybe its a faster approach to go directly through the
ContentResolver instead of using createPersonInMyContactsGroup:
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
Uri uri;
String id;
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver ();
for (int i = 0; i 100; i++) {
values.clear();
values.put(People.NAME, Test + i);
uri = cr.insert(People.CONTENT_URI, values);
id = uri.getLastPathSegment();
People.addToMyContactsGroup(cr, Long.parseLong(id));
}

Even if we turn off sync on HTC Magic it takes a long time to simply
add empty contacts. Adding 5000 empty contacts (without any other
operations) would take 1500sec = 25min.

hi,
which SDK version are you using? 1.5? 1.6? 2.0? 2.1?
there were some changes to the contact api from 1.6 to 2.0...
and maybe give a short snippet of how you insert the contacts to the
database.
maybe you do some (wrong) very time-consuming database-queries or you
just missed something, because i have seen my code using the contact db
implementation run way faster.. even with vcard-parsing full blown
contacts...on the htc magic

Hi!
I have some questions concerning importing contacts to the device,
which is extremely slow.
First of all, if you delete all your contacts, google sync will
restore it very quickly. However, when my app is adding contacts to
the device, it's very slow (a few contacts per second). Even if I add
almost empty contacts (with name only), it is a time-consuming
process.
If I turn google sync off, importing 5000 contacts can take 1-2 hours
(on HTC Magic). When google sync is on it can take up to 24hours. And
this happens despite the fact, that application for the whole time is
in the foreground, device is connected to charger and screen is on. I
checked the logcat to make sure my app is adding the contacts the
whole time, and it is.
I tried different methods and different devices. The results differ of
course, yet manually adding contacts is always significantly slower
that google sync. Is there any way that I can speed up the process? So
that importing 5000 contacts will take less than an hour.

[android-developers] Update a contact's company title field in Android 1.6
hello, i am trying to update an addressbook contact's company title field in Android SDK 1.6. i am trying to update the company field like this: [...] values.put(Contacts.Organizations.COMPANY, organisation); values.put(Contacts.Organizations.TYPE, Contacts.Organizations.TYPE_WORK); cr.update(Uri.withAppendedPath(uri,String.valueOf(idCompany)), values, null,null); [...] when executing my code i get the following error: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Cannot update URL: content://contacts/people/13/organizations/6 the way i am trying to update the company field works for all other fields (address fields, phone numbers, email addresses etc..). the only field where this method does not work is on the company and the title field. any ideas? is it a known issue in android 1.6? if yes, is there a workaround? even trying to delete the entry and insert a new one instead doesnt work. this leads to the same exception when trying to delete the value. cheers timo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
