[android-developers] Development Platform Compatibility
Hi, I am getting a new OS, which OS is Android SDK/IDE development environment compatible with XP64, Vista64 or Windows7?

[android-developers] Re: GridView ImageView and performance
Hi Gesh, Thanks for the response. I'll certainly give the bitmap factory a go. I'm currently using the ImageAdapter from the Hello GridView sample. But loading the images from the web rather than using resources. The problem is immediate, in that the performance doesn't degrade after re- visits to the activity, but is instead directly proportional to the number of images I'm displaying. As well as trying the bitmap factory can I ask what you think is the best way to encourage garbage collection? Will nulling my objects be a big help. Once I have it optimized I'm going to release it for free... I think there's a big hole in androids picasa support.

[android-developers] Re: GridView ImageView and performance

[android-developers] Re: GridView ImageView and performance
Like it's been mentioned previously, make sure you are recycling the convertView passed to the getView() method. Also make sure that you are not drawing images that are scaled at drawing time.

[android-developers] Re: Support from Developers
I'm afraid I think you're wrong. The reason for this is that last week I listed an application on Market and it's been received pretty well (Mostly 4 or 5 stars, average at the moment is 4 after 29 ratings), but, the first one star rating came less than 4 hours after publishing the app from a developer of a competing product whose comments was [insert product name] is easier and open source. So I think you're overestimating the honesty and professionalism of some developers. There are two other 1 star ratings from people who had force close messages, which I see as a completely valid reason for giving a 1* (even though I can't for the life of me reproduce them and the app has several hundred users now who seem happy with the app, and no, it has never used copy protection). I try to follow the folowing rules when rating an app; 1* - Fundamental problem (i.e. crashes or needs permissions it shouldn't such as internet access for a non-net aware app). 2* - Works but very limited (i.e. missing fundamental feature such as date tracking on an accounting program) 3* - Works but is hard to use and/or missing some features I'd like to see (i.e. Has a complex UI ). 4* - Works but I find minor things I'd like to see in the first few minutes of use (e.g. touch screen keypad for a pin entry screen or minor UI pecularities). 5* - Works and it takes me a while to think of anything that I'd want to see for the first few minutes. Al. P.S. Yes, I also listed it on AndAppStore (of course), and if you want to see the Market comments they're at http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.funkyandroid.banking.android.expenses.demo (tip of the hat to saurik). Alexander wrote: I have been in discussion with a few devs not quite content with the ratings/feedback system currently in place on the Android Market, and had the following idea: If there was a Developer Only Market, things would be _much_ more civil, professional, and productive for all involved.

There would be a less people to present to, but the quality of user helpfulness would be more concentrated.

[android-developers] Matching SDK version to code? NPE Bug in WebView?
Hi, I wrote an app that, among other things, renders feed articles using WebView. Now I get error reports that seem to originate in WebView: -- NewsRob Version: 1.7.0/170 -- Android Version: sdk=2, release=1.1, inc=128600 -- Thread State: RUNNABLE -- Stacktrace: java.lang.NullPointerException at android.webkit.CacheManager$1.run(CacheManager.java:391) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:935) I've got another report with the same content, but a different incremental version of the sdk (126986). Probably one from the US and one from the UK. So now I would love to know why the code blows up and if there is anything I can do about it. And with the source files and line numbers I felt in good shape to so. If only I could match them to the public code repositories ;-( Finding the file was easy: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=core/java/android/webkit;h=a133d1c04dede353611f23bc37d04a9ff7316b8d;hb=HEAD But then history returns the following: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=history;f=core/java/android/webkit/CacheManager.java;h=d12940d04f41e3f4450da79738714a6a8c7739e6;hb=HEAD -- 2008-12-18 The Android Open...

[android-developers] Re: GridView ImageView and performance
I'm currently using the ImageAdapter from the Hello GridView sample. But loading the images from the web rather than using resources. I think you need a better understanding of how adapters work to solve your problem. The getView() method of your Adapter is inkoved every time an image in your grid becomes visible (yes, including when you scroll back and forth to previously visible images). So if you have just replaced that one line image.setImageResource(int) with image.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromStream()) it means you are re-downloading images every time they get scrolled into view. So you need to cache those downloaded images and while you are at it make sure you cache scaled thumbnail of the image, just as big as you need them to avoid the possible problem Romain suggested. Use Bitmap.createScaledBitmap() - it's worked great for me. Also be aware that the emulator is running on your PC using that same network speed. If you want to test for real network problems you might get on a real device try starting the emulator with limited network (or on your G1 disable wireless and 3G). I alwasy run my emulator with network speed and latency set to EDGE, or for some debugging purposes even GPRS or GSM. hope that helps you, gesh.

[android-developers] Re: Support from Developers
People should only be allowed to vote on an app, if they have used the app for a sufficient amount of time. Consumers tend to be people who want everything to work exactly as the whish it would. Though their reasoning is solid, it just doesn't work that way, even with cars, the car doesn't work as you would like it would, but it works the way you have learned it works. So when a person has used an app for 5 minutes and thinks it's limited, he posts a 1 star rating. This might be a correct rating, but using an app for 5 minutes does NOT give you a good idea of what the app is about and how it works. Now if that same user used it for an hour and still thinks it's not that good, well, then the 1star rating IS valid. Maybe market should prevent comments and ratings from consumers who only have had the application for less then an (or a couple of) hour (s).

[android-developers] Some questions about modding stuff in the source code
Hi all, I am not sure if this goes into the 'platform' or 'developers' forum, so I am posting in both. Forgive me for this, please... I am about to take on a project requiring adding some stuff into the OS itself (adding support for additional hardware features on a new Android based device). I need to add/change some stuff in the OS installed: 1. Adding pages to the SYSTEM preferences - to allow users to change configuration of the hardware I am adding. 2. Adding packages of software and libraries to the OS code - to add the modules needed to handle the additional hardware. 3. Changing some of the built-in modules/packages to allow the device to recognize and use the hardware I am adding. My questions - can all the 3 be done ? What do I need ? Do I need special certification ? Do I need specific tools ? Is there any documentation/samples to how I do this ? I am really excited about this project - it will certainly add a significant device to the Android arena.

Mark's answers are correct. A bit of extra precision: -use the android-platform group if you want to contribute your changes back to the main Android source for inclusion in future official releases. Use android-porting if you are working in a copy of the Android source and don't intend to contribute your changes back. -the majority of the new Android code (i.e. code that was written specifically for Android as opposed to being re-used from other open-source projects) is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0, which contains some language about copyright, patents and trademarks.

[android-developers] Re: Matching SDK version to code? NPE Bug in WebView?
Unfortunately neither the exact code for the 1.0 SDK nor for 1.1
(especially for 1.1) are available.
Versions 126986 and 128600 respectively match PLAT-RC33 (current
version for the T-Mobile G1 in the US) and TMI-RC9 (the European
equivalent).
Here's the relevant code in 1.1, which matches the following code in
1.0:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/webkit/CacheManager.java;h=f5a09b83b724a86a825e3328542a178388b71ae5;hb=release-1.0#l367
I'm not familiar with that specific code, though.
378: /**
379: * remove all cache files
380: *
381: * @return true if it succeeds
382: */
383: // only called from WebCore thread

I've got another report with the same content, but a different

one from the UK.
So now I would love to know why the code blows up and if there is
anything I can do about it. And with the source files and line numbers
I felt in good shape to so. If only I could match them to the public

Finding the file was easy:

None of these seem to simply match the version information returned

Furthermore none of these seem to match the line no from the

So, how to match stacktraces to code?

My fault for not explaining myself better. I want to still be able to collect accelerometer data while the display is off. I'm well aware of the fact that I can keep the display on, but if I want to, for instance, create a pedometer application that counts footsteps while in the user's pocket, then the last thing I want is to keep the display to be on the whole time.

Al Sutton wrote: I'm afraid I think you're wrong. The reason for this is that last week I listed an application on Market and it's been received pretty well (Mostly 4 or 5 stars, average at the moment is 4 after 29 ratings), but, the first one star rating came less than 4 hours after publishing the app from a developer of a competing product whose comments was [insert product name] is easier and open source. So I think you're overestimating the honesty and professionalism of some developers. Granted. Perhaps I was being somewhat idealistic.

There would be a less people to present to, but the quality of user helpfulness would be more concentrated. It could serve as a place to test release apps before jumping into the swarm that is the current Market, or a place to seek genuinely constructive feedback.

[android-developers] Re: Matching SDK version to code? NPE Bug in WebView?
JBQ,
thanks for the quick reply.
So in line 391 it looks like the NPE is a result of mBaseDir.list() in 390
returning null. But how can I know what happened around this code snippet
without having that code?
Is this missing correlation a growing pain or will it be the same with the
next release?
I don't really know how to find a solution/workaround for the NPE with this
information.
And somewhere you found the code from below. Are there any plans to
publish this codebase as a reference point?
Cheers,

[android-developers] Re: Matching SDK version to code? NPE Bug in WebView?
Both the lack of correlation between the released binaries and the
released source code and the lack of source code for 1.1 are artifacts
of the release process that was used for 1.0 and 1.1. Lessons were
learned and issues were fixed, and I expect that the situation for the
next release will be better than it was for 1.0 and 1.1.
I found the source code in question in Google's internal code
repository, since I have access to the source code that was used to
build the versions of Android 1.1 with which you are having problems,
but unfortunately that source code cannot be published.
If there's any way that you can reproduce the issue with a small piece
of code, that would help us diagnose the issue and (if it turns out to
be an issue in Android itself) would allow us to test it against the
current source code as well.

[android-developers] Re: class com.android.camera.UploadService does not exist?
Much appreciated. I'd like to ask you one more question if I could JBQ. I have built all kinds of things with Android now, from simple activities, to OpenGL applications, to out of process servers running in services with inter-process communication and callbacks, et cetera. All of this is great in Android and relatively simple in comparison to doing it in other platforms; however, just trying to build Camera.apk is proving problematic in that I'm probably just taking the wrong approach. Do you have any suggestions (which I'll not hold you to) for building Camera.apk because I, of course, end up needing to reference classes outside of both the SDK and the Camera.git source base (such as com.android.text.format.DateFormat which I found in the base.git repositiory) and not being an expert Eclipse/Java person I simply tried linking in the base framework source folders. That, of course, doesn't work. All of the base code references a different set of resources. Should I be building the base code as its own project, and linking that project to my Camera project's build path? Sorry if this is too far beneath your purview, but I'm struggling to do something I had hoped would be simple - just build Camera.apk without any changes... I've googled on this a bunch but found nothing but vagaries that make it sound like no ones actually doing this right now.

I want a status TextView to be displayed on the activity, and if the task happens to start executing while my activity is showing, the TextView should be updated so the user can be aware of what's going on. So basically, is there a way to start a scheduled background repeating task and be notified when it is executed? From what I saw in the sample applications, I understand I'm supposed to use AlarmManager and a Service but I'm not sure about the notification part. Thanks a lot for your help.

I'm not familiar at all with the camera code and the dependencies that you might find, so I can't give you any advice here, sorry. JBQ On Sun, Mar 15, 2009 at 9:31 AM, Hans hkess...@gmail.com wrote: Much appreciated. I'd like to ask you one more question if I could JBQ. I have built all kinds of things with Android now, from simple activities, to OpenGL applications, to out of process servers running in services with inter-process communication and callbacks, et cetera. All of this is great in Android and relatively simple in comparison to doing it in other platforms; however, just trying to build Camera.apk is proving problematic in that I'm probably just taking the wrong approach. Do you have any suggestions (which I'll not hold you to) for building Camera.apk because I, of course, end up needing to reference classes outside of both the SDK and the Camera.git source base (such as com.android.text.format.DateFormat which I found in the base.git repositiory) and not being an expert Eclipse/Java person I simply tried linking in the base framework source folders. That, of course, doesn't work. All of the base code references a different set of resources. Should I be building the base code as its own project, and linking that project to my Camera project's build path? Sorry if this is too far beneath your purview, but I'm struggling to do something I had hoped would be simple - just build Camera.apk without any changes...

[android-developers] Re: I must pay 25$ to distribute a FREEWARE on Android Market
I think it's a good policy. This has the side effect (intended or not) of providing a useful 'gate' to prevent thousands of crap/spam apps from being uploaded. Having people register and making them pay a trivial fee (I would content $25 is trivial) is a nice way to keep it to people who really have a legitimate app to upload vs. everyone uploading their first Hello World app because it's cool.

[android-developers] Re: Matching SDK version to code? NPE Bug in WebView?
JBQ,
good to hear that regarding the correlation there is hope for the future.
Regarding a reproducible test case: I tried to reproduce it by hand and
can do that. It seems to happen when the phone memory is low (in my test
2.8MB) and the cache is cleared by calling
webView.clearCache(true);.
I could try to write an isolated test case for that, but this test case will
not automatically run as the environment needs to be right, i.e. a low
memory scenario needs to be created.
Also I am pressed for time at the moment. If you believe that this bug will
get attention soon and be fixed as a result of me creating a reproducible
test case, I will do that for the sake of the greater good. But if this will
just be stored in a bug report and put onto the huge pile, I would rather
start working on the workaround I need. Ok with you?
Thanks again, for being helpful, on a Sunday.
Cheers,
Mariano

I found the source code in question in Google's internal code
repository, since I have access to the source code that was used to
build the versions of Android 1.1 with which you are having problems,
but unfortunately that source code cannot be published.
If there's any way that you can reproduce the issue with a small piece
of code, that would help us diagnose the issue and (if it turns out to
be an issue in Android itself) would allow us to test it against the

np, 1 advice though - when showing dialogs, put 2 extra end-of-line
chars (\n), otherwise the last line gets clipped on the device (don't
know whether it happens on the emulator)
This *is* surely a bug w/ the AlertDialog.

They are not process specific they all have the same content. e.g a Process with PID=xxx and a process with PID=yyy their snmp or tcp or etc. are all the same. Do you know any way to go around this ?

LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android android:orientation=vertical android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent TextView android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:text=hello---note this / /LinearLayout It works correctly, the text hello will be show on the screen. But when I defined the xml file like this: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

Did you define the string id hello in the strings.xml file? You may need define it in the 'other apk' 's strings.xml file, you can try.

Hi quill There are some questions for you maybe can help you solve this problem first, from your question, Did you setup the akp into android emulator？ if yes, please reboot it, and try it again. last time, we also had those problem when we setup new akp. at the beginning, we also could get some sources such as some wave files at raw, we reboot the emulator the program can get them.. so my suggest is you can try it first...and check it...if u debug or run under the emulator I hope that can give you some helps...good luck and best regards!

[android-developers] Re: How to dismiss the AlertDialog without buttons after clicking on any item in the Alert Dialog
If you don't want buttons then you probably don't want to use
AlertDialog because an AlertDialog has to have at least one button.
Instead, use the Dialog class that AlertDialog extends. A Dialog can
display any view hierarchy you want. You can then attach listeners to
one or more views in your hierarchy that will cancel the dialog. Here
is a really simple example:
// assuming the dialog is constructed within your activity
final Dialog d = new Dialog(this);
d.setTitle(My Dialog);
TextView t = new TextView(this);
t.setText(Click me to dismiss the dialog);
t.setClickable(true);
t.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
d.dismiss();
}
});
d.setContentView(t);
d.show();
Of course, you would want to define your view hierarchy in XML and use
setContentView(int) instead.
Take a look at the documentation for the Dialog class to see what
methods are available. In particular there is a method
setCanceledOnTouchOutside() which I guess is the opposite of what you
want, but is interesting nonetheless.
Hope this helps,
Greg

Under what circumstances would files be deleted without mounting and

[android-developers] Image Manipulation - getPixel on a PNG resource error - bug?
Hi all!
I am trying to perform a transformation on an image, specifically a PNG
although any lossless format supported by Android would suit me, when
running my test suite I keep getting errors that the new pixel values I'm
creating are slightly wrong.
To narrow the problem I ran my tests with a single pixel PNG image and got
some bizarre results. I started by opening the file with gimp and using the
pippet to grab the argb value (Not very scientific I know) the pixel has the
following properties;
Red: 250
Green: 114
Blue:142
Hex: 0xFA728E
Binary: 0b1010 01110010 10001110
To me this suggests the file is stored in 32 bit depth and not the RGB_565
later reported, do images in res/raw get reduced to 16 bit when packaged
with an application?
In my test case I check that the values agree in the preconditions
@SmallTest
public void testPreconditions() {
super.testPreconditions();
assertEquals(String.format(Get Pixel doesn't map to test data
%n%s%n%s%n,MiffedTest.getBitPattern(b.getPixel(0,0)),
MiffedTest.getBitPattern(*0xfffa728e*)),b.getPixel(0,0), 0xfffa728e);
}
I eventually get the following report;
Failure in testPreconditions:
junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Get Pixel doesn't map to test data
0111 01110001 10001100
1010 01110010 10001110
expected:-560756 but was:-363890
I decode the single pixel PNG using the following command;
b =
BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(),R.raw.test);
The config for b is RGB_565 , this worries me, I was using the format in the
hope that it was lossless but 16 bit colour is not a great sign, I feel like
the crux of this issue lies in the conversion from RGB_565 - ARGB_
which much take place in the getPixel method.
Does anyone know why these values are out? They're such minor amounts but
the issues grow the more work I do to an image.
How is the conversion from the RGB_565 format to the 32 bit integer returned
by getPixel done? Some low end bits seem to be set so it's not the method
I'm used to.
Is there any other way to get at the raw pixel data if the methods are
inaccurate?
Is there any way for me to store or convert a PNG in ARGB_ on the
platform? I just need to be able to get the exact 32 bit value of any pixel
from the image.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Gav

[android-developers] Re: Image Manipulation - getPixel on a PNG resource error - bug?
Going from 565 to ARGB is not what you want. Whenever an image
with no alpha channel is decoded, Android (currently) converts it to
565 because this is how it will be rendered on screen. Doing the
conversion at drawing time would be a waste of CPU.
What you need is to decode the image directly in ARGB . When you
call one of the BitmapFactory.decode*() methods, you can specify a set
of BitmapFactory.Options. Simply pass a set of options in which
inDither == false. This will tell BitmapFactory to not attempt to
dither the original 24 bits image to 16 bits.

[android-developers] How do I save the image from the Camera application, called using the Intent?
I've been trying to save image from the camera by calling the
android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE intent. and save using
com.android.providers.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.
I've been successful in getting the small picture by calling the
camera intent and getting the result data. I know it is going to be
fixed in the cupcake release (I'm currently using 1.1_rc1.. latest
stable according to the site). However, from what I saw in the Camera
application's source code, passing output in Extras with uri should
save my file to the disk and return RESULT_OK. I'm still getting the
data back as inline-data however. Is there a way to make the Camera
application save the image file to the disk using a given URI and
later use that elsewhere?
Since I am indeed sending a saveUri to the Camera class, what's going
wrong. And yes, the MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT=output and it is public
but is flagged by Eclipse. I checked the source codes for all and
googled.
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Button cameraButton = (Button) findViewById
(R.id.cameraButton);
cameraButton.setOnClickListener( new OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v ){
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(Images.Media.TITLE, title);
values.put(Images.Media.BUCKET_ID, test);
values.put(Images.Media.DESCRIPTION, test Image
taken);
values.put(Images.Media.MIME_TYPE, image/jpeg);
Uri imageUri = getContentResolver().insert
(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
Intent intent = new Intent
(android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(output,imageUri));
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}

Hi Romain,
Now i am trying with AnimationSet, but still i cant move further,
the code i am trying is,
private void createAnim(Canvas canvas) {
AnimationSet set = new AnimationSet(true);
set.setInterpolator(new AccelerateDecelerateInterpolator());
anim = new RotateAnimation(0, 360, canvas.getWidth() / 2, canvas
.getHeight() / 2);
anim.setDuration(5000);
set.addAnimation(anim);
anim2 = new TranslateAnimation(

set.addAnimation(anim2);
set.setRepeatMode(AnimationSet.REVERSE);
set.setRepeatCount(AnimationSet.INFINITE);
startAnimation(anim);
// startAnimation(anim2);
}
If there is any method like startAnimation(AnimationSet), then it will
be easy...
please guide me...
Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to create a arc movement(means both RotateAnimation and
TranslateAnimation required) for a bitmap. I can do either rotate or
translate movement, but i cant integrate both.
the code which i am trying for this is,

anim = new RotateAnimation(0, 180, canvas.getWidth() / 2,
canvas
.getHeight() / 2);
anim2 = new TranslateAnimation(

anim.setInterpolator(new

startAnimation(anim);

Please guide me in this..

[android-developers] Re: The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.
Random guess: you tried to add a child view in a ListView statically in your layout XML file? You can't. ListView childs must be added programmatically. And yes it would help if you told us a bit about what is your layout or what you are trying to achieve.

[android-developers] Re: class com.android.camera.UploadService does not exist?
Just to clarify: - is this Camera the one in the git android repository? - are you trying to build from the android repository using make or from the SDK? - what is your platform?

There have been several small issues (such as a resource file having values not compatible with the latest SDK), but this one seems a bit more of a problem ;)... Anyone successfully built the full (not commented out here and there) Camera application? Tips appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Out of memory exception on setting wallpaper
Hi , Thanks for the help . The problem is resolved . I had used a ContentResolver for listening to contacts updated and dint unregister them in the onDestroy() method . Now have included the code changes and it seems to work fine . Im still in a doubt if this was the real problem for the out of memory exception. Any comments are welcome . Thanks and Regards, Navin On Mar 12, 9:26 pm, Romain Guy romain...@google.com wrote: getWallpaper() is not leaking. The default Home app is using it and does not experience out of memory errors because of that. I am more than willing to fix any existing memory leak in the framework (and I did several times) or in the default apps (and I did several times) but developers should really stop assuming that out of memory errors are always caused by the framework. It is *very* easy for an application to leak or simply to use too much memory.

[android-developers] Capture / Trap for ActivityNotFoundException
I am playing with android.speech.action.RECOGNIZE_SPEECH and in the source it says to trap for ActivityNotFoundException. However, I am not sure how I can do this, the activity class doesn't support this event. I found it as part of android.content, but am not sure how to implement it.

[android-developers] How to enable Network Location provider.
Hi, Alex Thanks for your reply to my earlier mail, I am unable to get the location updates when i use Network location provider. From the older posts i understood that to use NW location provider we need to do the following. for GPS provider lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1l, 1f, TestGPS.this); for N/W location provider lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 1l, 1f, TestGPS.this); And in my Android manifest file i have included the permissions ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION( for N/W) and ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION (for GPS). But still the location is not updated. Regards Kumar. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
