[android-beginners] Re: execSQL SQLiteException near "?"
In my experience on other SQL databases, you can't substitute a
parameter for a table name. You can only substitute values for
parameters that don't change the execution path of the query.

[android-beginners] How to save a WiFi connection?
Hi, I have written an app that programmatically scans for open WiFi networks and connects to the one that has been hard-coded in the app code. For e.g., I have a home network, SSID: Abhi and is secured as WPA-Personal with a Passkey. The passkey for the above network has been saved within the App, so when it looks for networks the first time and comes across the SSID 'Abhi', it connects with the passkey. However, the problem is, once I am done using the connection and switch WiFi off and back on again, I don't get connected automatically to 'Abhi' which would happen if I manually add the WiFi network going into settings and so on. Can someone help me figure this out? Thanks, Abhi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group. NEW!

[android-beginners] Re: google gdata Calender api problems with android
1. As written in
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener.html:
monthOfYear The month that was set (0-11) for compatibility with
Calendar.
2. Did you try to print startdate and enddate to be sure of their
values ? Your code is not complete, where did you declare mYear,
mMonth and mDay ?
3. I'm not sure but I suppose that getEntries gives the result from
the last application on top, like getExtras.
I have one question for you : what packages are you using ? I googled
for days looking how to get datas from gmail without success.
Thanks,

[android-beginners] Re: Why on Earth is it so hard to set up the development environment?
I think I understand your frustration I came from VisStudio and before that it was mostly embedded systems and UNIX. The android "environment" (somewhat like Java itself) tries to be a lot of things to a lot of people -- remember the "write once, run many" pronouncement of years gone by? You can even (so I've been told) can code in VS and then using the binary interface compile and build your Android pkg. Not for the faint of heart though. But let me make this suggestion. If you go to the Android SDK site, read the basic material regarding android development, read the simple HELLO world example(s) using Eclipse, then following that lead and download Eclipse, "attaching to" the SDK itself, and creating at least one target "DEVICE"; that is to say --- doing exactly as the docs suggest ... You Will Succeed. The bad news is that the Eclipse and Android SDK do not spoon feed you (as the VS comes close to doing) *but* it does make logical sense and you can create an app and run (and DEBUG) it on the Eclipse/Android- device-emulator. Perhaps if you are still having trouble you can re-view each step, and send in questions at each phase? It may seem quite a bit less daunting. You should also apply some critical thinking to each step your stuck at... e.g. I found that I had to change the PORT number from the DEFAULT when trying to DEBUG my first app. The Android Hello World doc indicated that the debugger would try to attach via PORT # x, but my Mac-version documentation for the (binary)debugger suggested a different PORT # y --- and viola' it finally connected! we're here to help. tob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] ListViews, Tabs & Back buttons!!
Hi all. I don't think I'll show code as I'd like to understand the correct method rather than get bogged down in syntax. I have three tabs which are going to hold three different RSS feeds. Focusing purely on the Tab 1, I'm loading a ListView of the required feed into that, this list has an onClickListener on it. I can successfully select a row and pass the required data to a ScrollView holding the specific feed item content if I set up the second tab to hold that ScrollView, but ideally I'd like the ScrollView to be loaded into Tab 1 in place of the ListView its coming from. Eveything I've tried results in an Emulator load error. I get the feeling its because I've declared the listview in main.xml and I'm then trying to load a ScrollView into it which isn't of the same type. So what do I do? Convert the xml node in main.xml somehow? This feels like it should be a bread and butter type operation but I can't work it out. One way that almost works is to club the ListView and ScrollView together in a ViewFlipper. I can then toggle between them but this feels incorrect and I can't see any way of controlling a flipper view sufficiently, especially how do I then implement a keydown listener to control the back button back to the listview. Any insight as to the correct approach much appreciated. Many thanks. Davdi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group. NEW!

[android-beginners] Creating DEMO and FULL versions
I have a couple of apps for which I have 2 different versions. Code executes conditionally based on R.string.isDemo. Everything works great until it's time to publish to the Market. The Market (understandably) requires different package names. So, here's what I started doing - I develop the FULL version in Eclipse and test it. When I'm done, I make a copy, import that into Eclipse and refactor it to change the package name. When I try to install to my dev phone, I get the following error: "Re-installation failed due to different application signatures." OK, so I understand what's going on here, but my question is this- if I publish this version to the Market, will it require users to uninstall and reinstall their copies? That's not exactly a seamless process and I don't want the users' databases to be deleted, either. I really don't want to maintain two versions by adding/testing the same code in two different projects. That is a formula for mistakes and oversights. Is there some other way? Maybe when I export the Signed App Package, everything will be fine? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group. NEW!

Thank you! I was able to deploy to my Droid phone using this method. One question though. I have a few apps that I deploy my Droid through eclipse, but this one recently stopped doing so. The other apps will still deploy to it when it is hooked up. Is there there a project setting I should look at? Dale On Feb 23, 12:27 pm, BobG wrote: > Close emulator. Open cmd window.

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Deactivate any calls to Log methods before publishing app
However, it would be a good programming practice to only leave logging on if you provide a way for users to get that information back to you if they have a problem... Otherwise it is just wasting cycles and battery and slows your app down a bit. Again though, the key word is SHOULD. -- There are only 10 types of people in the world...

Hi, I am using an application for android and having source code also. I am trying to extend that app and I am unable to understand how the app is running inside android. Is there any way to know which "method" or "function" is called and in what sequence(when the application is running..).?? ie.. for eg, if app has some 2 classes and each has 5 methods each , I want to kno which method is called, (I need to know the sequence) I tried trace view and dmtracedump, but these show info about the System functions rather than the user defined ones in app..

[android-beginners] Android alarm manager
Hi, i have a class which sets an alarm but i need to set a more of
these alarms .. instead of duplicating classes is there a way i can
just make a new instance of the class and set the alarm time? Each
alarm class will be triggered from a button in another class. Im
trying to avoid having alot of duplicate classes with different times
set for the alarms.
Heres my code.
public class Alarm extends Activity {
/* for logging - see my tutorial on debuggin Android apps for more
detail */
private static final String TAG = "SomeApp ";
protected Toast mToast;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
setAlarm();
}
public void setAlarm() {
try {
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 0);
cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 9);
cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 01);
cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
Intent intent= new Intent(Alarm.this, Alarm1.class);
PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this,
1234567, intent, 0);
PendingIntent sende2 = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this,
123123, intent, 0);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)
getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
am.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(),
sender); // to be alerted 30 seconds from now
am.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(),
sende2); // to be alerted 15 seconds from now
/* To show how alarms are cancelled we will create a
newIntent and a new PendingIntent with the
* same requestCode as the PendingIntent alarm we want to
cancel. In this case, it is 1234567.
* Note: The intent and PendingIntent have to be the same
as the ones used to create the alarms.
*/
Intent intent1= new Intent(Alarm.this, Alarm1.class);
PendingIntent sender1 = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this,
1234567, intent1, 0);
AlarmManager am1 = (AlarmManager)
getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
am1.cancel(sender1);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "ERROR IN CODE:"+e.toString());
}
}
};
b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// Intent i = new
Intent(getContext(),Alarm.class);
//Code below is from another class which is where im calling the alarm
application
// ctx.startActivity (i);// start the Alarm
class activity (class)public void onClick(View v) {
Alarm a = new Alarm ();
a.setAlarm();
b1.setText(prod);

There are lots of alternative tutorials. But they tend to be even more out of date than Google's. So the best course of action is to be persistent, live with the bugs you find in the online tutorials, finding workarounds by searching this group, Stack Overflow, and the open internet. There you will find corrections for at least many of the bugs in the tutorials.

[android-beginners] Re: Webview
You need to capture the Back keyevent...
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event){
if((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK)){
// put your code to recall page here
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
But you have to be careful because "Back" is also how the user expects
to leave the app (which is why your app is closing...you're at the
main activity it sounds like when the user hits back).

So I went and attempted to write the same program on a different computer. It worked fine.

Re: [android-beginners] help installing ADT eclipse Plugin
Hi, do you is using what kind of operational system? You can try to add http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo to the update list and do an update. This may install the pluggins that are missing.

[android-beginners] Re: Deactivate any calls to Log methods before publishing app
Hi, Justin- True to from, the official Android documentation on this property on http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html is not all that clear, but it seems to say just as you do: that it concerns using the debugger, NOT logging. But the OP had another closely related question still unanswered: is is really true that all logging using 'Log' must be turned off to put the application on the market? I can think of lots of uses for logging that even the user can turn on/off, yet the guidelines at http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/preparing.html really do seem to forbid using 'Log'.

[android-beginners] Re: Scrollbars Problem
He explicitly said he wanted horizontal scroll bars. Those are for horizontal scrolling; ScrollView supports only vertical. If the OP wants to scroll a TextView, he should look at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.styleable.html#TextView_scrollHorizontally.
