One could argue that you don't have time to reach for a phone in an
emergency, or you might not have a phone in an emergency, or your
phone might have a dead battery, or your phone does not have a mobile
data or WiFi signal, etc.

Conversely, not all emergencies are necessarily that time-critical for
the person with the phone.

Hence, the net value of being able to trigger your app via an external
mechanical means versus, say, a home screen app widget, is not that
great, IMHO.

> so it should fire on some hard key.
> so plz suggeat alternet solution

You can build your own phone, with your own dedicated hardware button
for emergencies, that will launch your own application via hooks from
your own firmware.

Or, take another approach that does not require the app to be manually
triggered in the emergency situation:

http://commonsware.com/blog/2010/05/24/application-concept-resqr.html

Or, focus on creating a home screen app widget as your trigger, with
something to ensure that it is not accidentally invoked by the user.

Or, write another app.

There is no broadcast Intent for HOME. HOME is used with startActivity().

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kristopher Micinski]

That doesn't make sense...

Every time the the user presses the home key you want to think you're
in "emergency mode?"

(By the way, you know that phones, at least in the US, do this already
when you dial 911, I believe..)

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kumar Bibek]

I am not sure about this, but I think it would work for you.

When you press the Home button, there would be an Intent fired system-wide.
So, you could write a receiver that tracks these particular kind of intent.

Now, in the receiver, you could monitor the frequency of these intents. IF
you could detect that the frequency is the same as you would want your app
to be triggered, you can very well start a service or activity, or whatever.

Re: [android-developers] override home key

There would always be a few things which you cannot do.

I don't understand how does this "No" affect the popularity of Android.

Their could be other ways to solve your problem, that is, if you could

In general, you should pretend like the "home" key doesn't exist.
Think of it as being a meta key, you don't use it to interact with
your app, the user uses it with their phone, and the platform dictates
how it behaves.

Typically people who want to do things they shouldn't lack a
fundamental understanding of the android way of doing things.  The
model is heavily sandboxed, you don't get full access to the entire
platform as you can on a windows machine, it just doesn't work like
that.  The *default* is to give you a restricted set of options, and
then you can request access to more options..

But in this case, you just shouldn't act like the home key is there..
In general being able to mess around with the home key would be
considered a violation.

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kumar Bibek]

You cannot override, but you can make your app as one of the home
applications. In that case, whenever you press the home key, you will get
an option to choose one of the many home applications, one of which could
be yours.

Few times ? No.

Because you did not write "gmail" or "webbrowser". You are attempting

You are welcome to extend Activity and override getSystemService() to
do whatever you want. Geocoder won't use it, because it does not use a
LocationManager directly. I'm also unclear why you think this is "the
Android way".

If you want to roll your own geocoding logic, ignore Geocoder and
LocationManager and just roll your own geocoding logic.

You cannot "run a service which will override the status bar".

You can, however, download the source code to Android, make changes to
it, and attempt to get it running on your own hardware. Visit

You can suppress the status bar in your own applications for Android
1.x and 2.x with a "Fullscreen" theme. You cannot "override the Status
bar" for the entire system, or for Android 3.0, except via custom
firmware.

And on second review of your code, I see you only do that if the key is not
the back key. Don't mind me.

The "super" method likely executes the default action for the given key
press.
The default action on the back key is to call finish() on the activity.

Re: [android-developers] override back button

[Dia]

Hello,

Does your Back Button exit the application in both cases? When
animation.state!=1 it should not do anything.  In the other case it should
exit.

>From documentation:

   - "If you handled the event, return true. If you want to allow the event
   to be handled by the next receiver, return false."

Hope this helps.

Re: [android-developers] @override question

[Scott Davies]

Hi,

As mentioned by Marcin and Kevin, this is to notify the compiler that you
are over-riding a method from it's base/parent/super class.  The @ syntax
is Java's (5.x and later, if I'm not mistaken), method of denoting meta
data markup attribute, similar to the [ ] syntax in C#.

If you're looking for more Java info, "Java for Android" (see:
http://www.amazon.com/Learn-Java-Android-Development-Friesen/dp/1430231564/
ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1298501972&sr=1-1), is quite good.  I have
no ties to the author, but I own a copy and have found it useful for
brushing up on Java language and syntax.  It's well written.

For Android specific stuff, you'll need to read up on the Android
platform.  Manning has some great books available.

Re: [android-developers] @override question

[Kevin Brooks]

"@override" tells the compiler that you are overriding a method from the
parent class.  This allows to customize the functionality of that method to
your own needs.  Some methods you are required to override by the design of
the parent class.

BaseExpandableListAdapter does not have icons - the expandable list view it
provides data for does.

Look for the child indicator and group indicator functions and XML
properties.

You shouldn't be drawing when the location changes. Try overriding the
drawMyLocation function, which will be called with a valid Canvas object
when it's time to draw.

Re: [android-developers] @Override tag error between dev environments

[Jason Proctor]

fabulous. always thought that was a bad situation in 1.5.

thanks


@Override can be used on interface methods in Java 1.6 but not in 1.5.
Just set your environment to use Java 1.6.

 The @Override tag gives a "must override a superclass method" (which

 myself having to always remove these override tags when compiling
 others' projects,

Re: [android-developers] @Override tag error between dev environments

[Jason Proctor]

the @Override is optional, it's just a check to see whether you are 
actually overriding something as opposed to just implementing a 
similar method :-)


what happens if you qualify that OnClickListener to 
View.OnClickListener? any difference?


btw fwiw and maybe i am old-fashioned, but i hardly ever use 
anonymous classes. makes it hard to find stuff by functionality, you 
have to find it by use. not very oop, IMHO.

Re: [android-developers] Override in call-screen - Security Bug or Feature?

[Disconnect]

Didn't the whitepages app come out in the very very first days of the
market with this capability? (I didn't use it much, at the time there
was no 3g in this area. Plus, submitting incoming phone #s to a 3rd
party service was really skeevy.)

As an aside, Dianne is a girl's name. :)
