[android-beginners] Re: startActivity() crash...
Roman, Ok, so I did a little more tinkering around with this and found the following: I can use PackageManager.getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageName) and I get a valid Intent to launch the activity. However, no matter what flags I set (I have tried with both setFlags and addFlags methods) this causes a another instance of the application to be created when I call startActivity(intent). If I use the baseIntent as described in an earlier post for a workaround everything works fine and I do not have this problem. Is there a way, using the intent instance returned from PackageManager.getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageName) that I can just bring the current activity to the foreground? I have tried adding and setting the FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT flag without luck...

Actually, if you look at the very first post I made about this, I am using the topActivity object to modify the newly created intent... Am I not supposed to use taskInfo.topActivity.getClassName()? That is what I assume you mean when you mention activity name because I cannot find anything in the topActivity object that references an activity name.

[android-beginners] ADC2 [tools] Mezzofanti - Augmented reality through text recognition
Hi all, we are happy to share with you the release of Mezzofanti, an application that allows reality augmentation (as seen in camera mode) with information about any text in view. The augmentation is done through an internal text-recognition engine. The application at a glance: 1. Select a text of interest (ex: menu at a restaurant, tourist information sign, etc), and take a photo. The internal-OCR engine will start text-recognition. 2. Use Mezzofanti to translate the text (or parts of it) to any one of over forty languages, or to google it on the web, find more information in the dictionary or on Wikipedia. Technologies: - the internal-OCR engine is a modified version of Tesseract 2.03, currently developed by Google under Apache License v2.0. - The engine is particularly optimized for 5 languages (English, German, Spanish, Italian, and French), but it works fairly well with any other language that uses the Latin alphabet. - the interface between the OCR engine (C++) and Java is done in JNI - the main core is programmed in Java - the translation engine is based on Google-translate License information: - all Mezzofanti code is available for free under the Apache License v2.0 and it is posted at google code. On our website http://www.itwizard.ro you can also find: - a tutorial about Mezzofanti's features and internal architecture - all the Mezzofanti code, and a tutorial on how to install run it from your own SDK - how to interface the Tesseract OCR with your own code, JNI/NDK how- to - many other tutorials and examples for Android We encourage dialog, so please leave us some feedback. We're particularly interested in collaboration opportunities on new and exciting projects for mobile platforms.

[android-beginners] handling location error conditions
i'm trying to write my app to be robust about error conditions that might occur with regards to location. this i what i understand so far. can someone verify? 1. if no location provider is found (LocationManager.getBestProvider() returns null), i should ... ? not sure here. exit the app? ask them to enable something and exit the app? would this ever occur? 2. if there's no last known location, i should pause the app, modally, and wait for a location update to arrive? ? thanks. --
[android-beginners] Re: rssi of multiple wifi networks
I am only aware of getting the signal level after a successful scan with class ScanResult. You could convert the signal level back to a RSSI value. Based on the documentation the class WifiInfo can be used for connections which are already setup or in the progress of being setup. You might be able to initiate a connection and try to get the RSSI with getRSSI also if you are not able to get connected. I did not try this yet and for sure it would not be the fastest way. -- Roman Baumgaertner Sr. SW Engineer-OSDC ·T· · ·Mobile· stick together The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc.

[android-beginners] Efficiency of requestLocationUpdates() and how to save these gps data
Hello, i'm developing a small gps application. I want to track some gps data. So I use the requestLocationUpdates - function. Now a quote from the android development reference: The frequency of notification or new locations may be controlled using the minTime and minDistance parameters. If minTime is greater than 0, the LocationManager could potentially rest for minTime milliseconds between location updates to conserve power. If minDistance is greater than 0, a location will only be broadcast if the device moves by minDistance meters. To obtain notifications as frequently as possible, set both parameters to 0. My question is, how much battery power will be lost, if a user wants to track for example 100 km and i set the parameters to 0? My second question is, how I can save the gps data efficiently?? If the user wants to track a 100km tour, I will have 100.000 gps data (if the device broadcast a change of location every 1m). So I think, I have to choose the parameter values of the requestLocationUpdates - function greater than 0. Has anyone experience and can give me a value which gives good results (if I drive with a bike (10-15km/h) or if i walk (5km/h)? And how can I save a specific point during the minTime and minDist (for example if there is a landmark)?

problem. When I compare the code, I can't see what I'm doing wrong with the

someone please help? Thanks!

[android-beginners] Re: handling location error conditions
Hi, i have similar problems, so if hope that somebody can help us. 2. if there's no last known location, i should pause the app, modally, and wait for a location update to arrive? What will be, if you have only the last location and you stop the app and return to it later and than you want to start a tracking; the error can be get great. Therefore, I have found a source code (not tested yet, but it looks fine). A new question is, what can I done, if I get periodic updates with the requestLocationUpdates(.., minTime, minDist,...) and now the user want to get the current location at a specific point unperiodic (minDist = 100m and the user wants to save the point only 50m away from the last point for example) Thanks, Stefan --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] Re: Why does using People._COUNT cause IllegalArgumentException to be thrown?
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
My code is working now, but I don't know why. I already had the
appropriate permissions as suggested by you. Your suggestion to add
more contacts can't help, since the Uri 'myperson' is not used later
in the code where the exception occurs. So, I'm clueless about why it
didn't work last week.
Thanks, anyway.

Hi.
I tried with your code, it works.
Kindly check two things.
1. You should over 23 contacts, because you write Uri myPerson =
ContentUris.withAppendedId( People.CONTENT_URI, 23 );
2. You should write permission code in AndroidManifest.xml like below.
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.READ_CONTACTS /
application android:icon=@drawable/icon
android:label=@string/app_name
activity android:name=.ContentProviderExamples
android:label=@string/app_name

Have a good day!!
2009/8/26PankajGodbole panka...@gmail.com
Hello,
I am learning about Content Providers, and tried the example from the
official Android tutorial on the topic. Please see the code below:
package com.example.devguide;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ContentUris;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Contacts.People;
import android.util.Log;
public class ContentProviderExamples extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
/* Use the ContentUris method to produce the base URI
* for the contact with _ID == 23. */
Uri myPerson = ContentUris.withAppendedId( People.CONTENT_URI, 23 );
/* Alternatively, use the Uri method to produce the base URI. */
myPerson = Uri.withAppendedPath( People.CONTENT_URI, 23 );
/* Query this particular record. */
Cursor c = managedQuery( myPerson, null, null, null, null );
/* Form an array specifying which columns to return. */
String[] projection = new String[] { People._ID,
//People._COUNT, //throws
IllegalArgumentException
People.NAME,
People.NUMBER };
Log.i( CPE, projection[] = + projection );
/* Get the base URI for the People table in the Contacts content
provider. */
Uri contacts = People.CONTENT_URI;
/* Construct the query. */
Cursor managedCursor = managedQuery( contacts,
projection,
null,
null,
People.NAME + ASC );
showColumnData( managedCursor );
Log.i( CPE, End of current code );
}
private void showColumnData( Cursor c ) {
if ( c.moveToFirst() ) {
String name;
String phoneNumber;
String imagePath;
int nameColumn = c.getColumnIndex( People.NAME );
int phoneColumn = c.getColumnIndex( People.NUMBER );
do {
/* Obtain the field values. */
name = c.getString( nameColumn );
phoneNumber = c.getString( phoneColumn );
Log.d( CPE, name = + name + , phone = + phoneNumber
);
} while ( c.moveToNext() );
}
}
}
However, the example given did not work, because calling managedQuery with
the array projection as one of the arguments resulted in a
IllegalArgumentException (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException). Android says
that the column _count which is the value of the element People._COUNT in
array projection is invalid. Can anyone explain to me the reason for this
exception, even though the names of all the columns are as per the API
specification?
Please see the output of LogCat below:
08-26 12:06:20.330: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1112): java.lang.RuntimeException:
Unable to start activity
ComponentInfo{com.example.devguide/com.example.devguide.ContentProviderExamples}:
