Hi there, I'm having some troubles with the light sensor on the Nexus One. AFAIK, the proper way to read the measures of a sensor is registering a SensorListener through the SensorManager and then wait for the readings on the onSensorChanged method. My main problem is that the light sensor don't

Hi, on a regular JVM you can generate a dump in the very moment the first OOM occurs (starting it with the -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError option), which is very useful. From your previous posts I have deduced that's impossible with Dalvik... am I right? are you considering this feature?
