[android-developers] Re: Alarm Wake Lock and Services
Thanks, that clears things up. I guess I was somehow lucky that this worked for me, maybe the device wasn't going back to sleep quickly enough in my case. I'll implement the broadcast receiver and wakelock to ensure this always works.

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to use the dpad button to pause and play audio while the device is locked
Tell them "Android sux and doesn't support this." Note that the HTC app could of course do something like this because, it is HTC's phone, and they can hack it however they want. Heck they could modify the lock screen to look for the key press and poke their media player app. On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 7:32 PM, skyhigh wrote: > I am still getting requests from people to make my application pause > and resume audio playback when they press a button while the screen is > locked. > > One of the people requesting this feature assures me that the HTC > Sense UI media player is doing this, so there must be a way to do it. > > Is there some type of non-published API that they are using to get > this functionality? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Android Developers" group. > To post to this group, send email to android-developers@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > android-developers+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?hl=en > -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.

[android-developers] Video Playback freezes on 1.6 donut with opencore2
It looks like there is something wrong with the player (opencore), at
times, video playback will get stuck on one frame, and will stay there
for a long time.
If you look at the log, you can see that player started playing at
17:59:48, at that time it has already buffered 6 seconds of video.
Then at 17:59:53 the video and sound got stuck, while buffering kept
going on in the background
After 25 seconds (18:00:19) it resumed playing and buffer was already
at 36 seconds, and all this time the api report that it is playing,
meaning in the code, i don't know that video is stuck...
Any thoughts or suggestions? This started to happen in donut (1.6)
with the introduction of opencore2. I have never seen this problem in
with previous version of opencore (android versions <= 1.5)
Legend: the integers next to "current" and "buffer" are in seconds of
video. while "playerDriver buffering" are in percentages.

Okay, so I know that the parse() method takes an inputsource, and

Re: [android-developers] Alarm Wake Lock and Services
A wake lock is not currently held for services; you will need to wrap it with a broadcast receiver.

Re: [android-developers] Portrait vs landscape using sensor
You might want to use this:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/OrientationEventListener.html
If it doesn't exactly serve your needs, just copy the code into your own app
and tweak as desired:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/view/OrientationEventListener.java
For example there is a much more specialized version of this that the window
manager uses for rotating the screen:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/view/WindowOrientationListener.java

[android-developers] Alarm Wake Lock and Services
Hello, I have a question about alarms used with services with regards to wake locks. The documentation explains the behavior using BroadcastReceivers, a wakelock is held during onReceive(), but doesn't describe the behavior for alarms starting services with the RTC_WAKEUP flag. What is the behavior in this case? I have an app implementing this, an alarm is created with the RTC_WAKEUP flag that starts a service. The service onCreate() then starts a thread to do some network activity. It seems to work just fine but I just want to make sure that I don't need to explicity hold a wakelock myself. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] streaming issue with mediaplayer on android 2.0
I have an app that streams mp3's from a server, works fine on 1.5 and lower. But on the droid, for certain songs the mediaplayer buffers to like over 50% but onPrepared() is never called. These same songs work fine on 1.5 or on a 2.0 emulator but for some reason they just hang on the actual droid phone. No mediaplayer errors are thrown but if i call stop or reset it while it is hanging like this, it throws this, 12-18 19:14:05.230: ERROR/MediaPlayer(15718): stop called in state 4 12-18 19:14:05.230: ERROR/MediaPlayer(15718): error (-38, 0) 12-18 19:14:05.238: ERROR/PlayerDriver(987): Command (6) was cancelled it is only for certain files (yes they are all mp3s) and only on the droid.

[android-developers] Re: Portrait vs landscape using sensor
Hi Fabio,
This is for a camera app, and the activity is set to remain in
landscape mode all the time. So if I want to find out which way the
phone is oriented, I need to use the sensors, as the configuration
will always report that I'm in landscape mode,
Thanks

Sorry for this basic question. How do I run the unit tests for the samples? Most of the samples have a subdirectory called tests with some source in them. However, I haven't been able to If I create a New Android Test project, it wants to create it from scratch. If I try to give it the tests subdirectory, it tells me that "C:\android-sdk-windows \platforms\android-1.6\samples\LunarLander\tests overlaps the location of another project". What is the proper way to set this up. Also, are there some tutorials that walk through creating tests? I thought I had seen some, but couldn't find them just now. Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: How can i stop a thread in a Activity?
Calling interrupt() only works if your thread is interruptable and if your thread handles interruptions appropriately. Your thread only is interrupted if the thread is doing I/O or is in a wait-state (having called wait() on Object). If you want to have background threads that do one-shot jobs and then wait, use AsyncTask or the java.util.concurrent's ExecutorService . And, you'd better read up on concurrent programming a little :-) It can be tricky.

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL hardware requirements specification
Shaun, Most "effects" are things that you program so to enable/disable them, you have to do it in your own code. Most other primitive features like fog, lights and texture filtering are all controllable in GL, so you wouldn't need any additional configuration options for your GPU. I'm comfortable saying that all we need is a relative class of GPUs that basically indicates how much raw power they have. I'm trying to make my new game scale across all phones but I'm having a problem on the ones with software renderer. No matter how far I drop the res of my textures or how basic I make things, I can't get over 10 fps on it. That's where I'd like to draw the line and say that my game just can't be installed on it. I know I can never provide a good experience on it, and thus the basic class system.

[android-developers] Re: How to create a closed (circular) ListView
I did this by creating my own list-adapter (subclassed from BaseAdapter). I coded my own list-adapter in such a way that its getCount() method returns a HGE number. And if item 'x' is selected, then this item corresponds to adapter position='adapter.getCount()/2+x' And for my adapter's method getItem(int position), i look in my array that backs up the adapter and fetch the item on index: (position-getCount()/2) % myDataItems.length You need to do some more 'special' stuff to make it all work correctly, but you get the idea.

No it means call Class.forName(). Just get a Connection object as in
the examples in this thread and you can use JDBC with SQLite. This
is way JDBC always works

[android-developers] OpenGL Error 1281 loading textures on Droid in native resolution
Just started testing my games on the Droid in native res (any density enabled). I've been using (scaled density) compatibility mode up until now. Everything works except for the textures. OpenGL throws error 1281 (Invalid Value) when loading in that mode (480x854). Everything loads fine when I go back to compatibility (320x597). I'm trying to use GLUtils.texImage2D(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, level, bitmap, 0). That's it. I used a GLSurfaceView to configure GL so all settings should be standard/default. This is working on every device except the Droid and it even works on it when I don't have "any density" enabled. Is this a bug or am I actually doing something wrong? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] MobiForms Developer Tool Now Supports Google Android Smartphones
The latest version of the revolutionary mobile development tool MobiForms 5.0 now offers support for Google Android smartphones. MobiForms is the first rapid application development tool in the world specifically designed for Google Android. Up until now developing for Android required in depth professional programming skills with mandatory learning of Java, the Eclipse IDE (Integrated Development Environment) and the Google Android SDK (Software Development Kit). MobiForms replaces all of these tools with one simple, intuitive, drag and drop interface. No Java or XML programming is required. MobiForms now makes it possible for novice or experienced programmers alike to quickly create mobile business application for Android Google smartphones. MobiForms for Google Android supports JDBC database connectivity to a range industrial standard databases including Oracle and SQL Server. MobiForms also includes a free copy of the JDBC compliant HSQLDB database engine for off-line mobile database storage. MobiForms offers all the tools in one "box" for the creation and deployment of any type of mobile application - from surveys to field service, from signature capture to bar coding. One MobiForms application supports multiple device types including Tablet PC, Pocket PC, Windows CE, Windows Mobile, Symbian and now Google Android. One MobiForms licence includes an unlimited runtime licence for any number of mobile devices. MobiForms for Google Android can be downloaded from the MobiForms web site at: http://www.mobiforms.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Updating a pre-installed application
Sorry, I don't believe there is a way to do that. Market is not intended to deliver applications tied to a particular device; it is for applications that are developed for the regular platform. One possible trick you can use is to also require that the OEM include a shared library of yours, if you put a for this in your app's manifest, then (some day in the future) Market will only show the app for devices that have this library. (Market doesn't do this right now, but hopefully will soon.) Actually, if your app needs some functionality from the device that is not part of the platform, the proper way to do this is to put it in a shared library like this that the application uses (and the OEM implements). This may just be what you want to do anyway.

One more question about this. Our application is one that requires OEM integration to provide its full functionality and thus if someone downloaded it from the Market to a phone on which it is not normally pre-installed, it would not function properly for them. Is there a way to place the update on the marketplace such that it will only be available to phones on which it was originally preloaded? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: using soundPool but sound plays after a delay, sound is lagging
I have had similar issues using wav and mp3 files.
I haven't profiled the delays, but I did decide to pre-load all of the
settings that I could pre-load. Even retrieving all settings from the
context and storing them. Then, just call playSound. This doesn't
diagnose the problem, but it should reduce a little overhead.

[android-developers] Re: Program unique identifier
@Watcher That's why the ANDROID_ID is meant to be used I believe, it is phone even on phone-less devices. Though some phone-less devices redirect the getDeviceId() call to return the ANDROID_ID too. @Iphpc Watcher is correct, there is no unique program specific identifier outside of the package name. You could simply concatenate that with the ANDROID_ID though for program specific uniqueness. This would returned you a new value for each device that is running you app. You could even add a version to this to differentiate across versions since you package stays the same... -Tim Strazzere On Dec 18, 3:07 pm, Watcher wrote: > If your software is running on a phone-less tablet, chances are you > won't even get an instance of TelephonyManager so getDeviceId() won't > work > > Unique program identifer is the package identifier although anyone > could use the same id as yours... > > On Dec 18, 4:49 am, lphpc wrote: > > > Hi All, > > As known, we can get devcie unique ID using > > TelephonyManager#getDeviceId() .

[android-developers] Unable to start an activity, load the home screen, or show a notification during calls on Droid
Hi All, Has anyone been successful showing a notification, starting an activity, or loading the home screen *during* a call on the Droid? All three of these actions can be done with the emulator running 2.0, but will not run from the Droid. I don't receive any type of notification that these actions fail on the Droid. Although, every action works when a call is *not* active. Missed calls during a call *do* show up in the notification bar, so I am hoping there is a way. I understand that the notification bar can not be accessed by users during calls, but it would be nice if a notification could at least be delivered. I also understand the security and usability concerns of displaying a window or action during phone calls. Although, there are a lot of users who would like actionable functionality based on calls.

Re: [android-developers] Re: ClassLoader leaking memory?
Um, you are making this way too hard. You should load code with this: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#createPackageContext(java.lang.String, int) And please please note, there are major security and functional issues with loading code like this. If this isn't all code you have written that is only running in your own app, you really need to seriously rethink what you are doing. Security -- you are allowing someone else's code to run in your process, with your identity, with your permissions. They can do everything you can, as you, so any problems in their code are effectively -your- problem. Functionality -- the code is loading and running with your uid, so it can not request its own permissions, and can only read and write files under your data directory. if multiple applications load it, all of its data is isolated in each of those apps, and it ends up running with different permissions depending on the app. On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 12:12 PM, B++ wrote: > After some further analysis, I noticed that memory resources are > released if the loaded class belongs to the same apk as the app. The > problem seems to be apparent if a loaded class belongs to a different > apk.

[android-developers] Re: ClassLoader leaking memory?
After some further analysis, I noticed that memory resources are released if the loaded class belongs to the same apk as the app. The problem seems to be apparent if a loaded class belongs to a different apk. It looks like the resources about the class extraction are not getting released properly. fadden, I create a new class loader onCreate(), so that I will always ensure that a new apk is loaded everytime the app is launched. Ideally, I would like to clean these resources onDestroy, but supposedly, this should be handled by gc. By the way, the loaded apk represents a plugin (A simple class, and some plugin specific resources), and onCreate, I need to check if plugin has changed, but this is not possible without loading the class from the apk first :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: } catch (OutOfMemoryError E) {
As a followup this had no impact. Also it wasn't an OutOfMemoryError
when it it got bubbled up to my activity, it was an InflateException.
Catching the exception seemed to have no impact, it still crashed. I
tried this:
//not having much luck fixing our OutOfMemoryErrors, so lets see what
happens if we just catch and log it. Might be nicer to the user.
try {
setContentView(R.layout.arl_start);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
GlobalUtils.outOfMemoryCount++;
Log.e(getClass().getCanonicalName(),"GlobalUtils.outOfMemoryCount

e.printStackTrace();
finish();
} catch (InflateException e) {

[android-developers] Re: How to test if app is shown on Market for all screensizes
The problem of some Milestone devices not seeing copy protected apps is one we continue to work on addressing. We are working with the OEM to resolve the root cause. > You guys are funny. Android Market on HTC Tattoo does not show > applications that do not implicitly declare that they support its > screen. It definitely has nothing to do with CAMERA permission or > whatsoever This is false. As previously stated, *if* the app requires the android.permission.CAMERA manifest, it *must* state that it does not require autofocus in in order to show on Tattoo. This is because the camera permission, if granted, implies access to an autofocus camera. The request must be modified to not require autofocus with . Admittedly this is not as developer- friendly as it could be, its the result of a lack of foresight in our original design. A separate issue is that apps that do not explicitly support sdkVersion 4 or above will not be shown to Tattoo because it contains a "small" screen. "small" screen devices did not exist before Android 1.6 (sdkVersion 4) and apps may break when shrunk to fit the smaller screen. Apps declaring support for sdkVersion 4 or above will be assumed to support small screens, unless stated otherwise in the element.

[android-developers] Re: using soundPool but sound plays after a delay, sound is lagging
Can you quantify the lag? How much is it lagging? Lately I've been
seeing my footstep sounds, which are individually triggered right and
left steps, take 2-50ms to trigger for some reason. I'm not sure if
it has something to do with the way the OGG is encoded, but I feel
like it could. Perhaps the SoundPool author would like to chime in
and give us some hints?

[android-developers] Re: OpenGL hardware requirements specification
I'd really like to see a GPU Class enumeration starting with the software renderer. android:gpuClass="integer" class 0 = software renderer class 1 = MSM7200 series class 2 = PowerVR SGX series class 3 = Some faster, more powerful GPU etc... This way, we could specify that a game only works on class-2 and above hardware. It would make it MUCH easier for us to build high-quality games targeted at "gamer" phones. This in conjunction with a GL ES version would be perfect, however I believe there will be some overlap. My gut says that using the proposed class system, one would expect class 2 and above GPUs to support OpenGL ES 2.0. Perhaps in the future some class 5 GPUs will support 2.1 or 3.0 or whatever comes down the pipeline.

I don't have access to the domain name anymore. So for all developers trying to find out about their applications look elsewhere. Honestly, when the site was going on it wasn't much money anyways.

So if I understand this correctly, you're creating a new class loader
each time, and re-loading one or more classes in the new class
loader. So if you start this 10 times you'll have 10 copies of class
Foo, each from a different class loader.
Why not just load the class(es) once? What is it you're trying to
do? What APK are you opening?
The Dalvik VM doesn't presently unload classes. Given the nature of
Android applications, the feature is not likely to percolate to the
top of the "to do" list any time soon.

[android-developers] Portrait vs landscape using sensor
Hi,
I'm trying to detect landscape vs portrait orientation with the
following:
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
float pitch = event.values[2];
if (pitch <= 45 && pitch >= -45) {
// portrait
}
else if (pitch < -45) {
// landscape
}
else if (pitch > 45) {
// landscape
}
}
anyone have something more robust? It works pretty well, except if the
phone is in a landscape orientation, and the user starts to 'flatten'
it out, starts thinking it's in the portrait orientation again,
Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Upload multiple versions for single android application for different SDK levels 1.5, 1.6, 2.0
An Android developer has to develop the habit of untraining management that is used to J2ME. If you release multiple different APKs you technically can fork your codebase, into different packages, to target different firmware. But you don't want to compete with yourself for market listings, you don't want to fork your code, you don't want to have to maintain different branches. Mind you, I don't want to use reflection, it frightens me a bit, and it's annoyed me and made my app harder to debug every time I've used it. Eventually though we'll really want to use a feature not in 1.5. I'm curious, what happens if you release an application that requires Android 1.5 or higher on the market, and then you update it with a version that requires 1.6 or higher? Will 1.5 users simply no longer be able to download the application? What is their user experience? Thanks, -MK On Dec 18, 2:42 am, lk wrote: > hi TreKing > > Thanks for your reply.

Is it absolutely crucial that your users have the most recent update the second it's put out? If not, don't worry about this. Put your update out and let the users discover it on their own, either if the Market actually works and notifies them or if they go check for updates manually. Otherwise you'll have to suck it up and write some version checking code. This can't be that hard. Check a file on a web server, do a compare with the current version, notify the user with an alert that a new version is available and start the Market with your app when the user clicks the notification. Why even bother with the manifest? Because without a higher version number the Market won't know there's an update available. And you won't even be allowed to publish via the Market unless the version code is higher than what's already there. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 9:16 AM, stanlick wrote: > Wow!

How did you resolve it? I think we do need a list of ways one can cause this, how you figure out what caused it, and what to do to fix it.

[android-developers] PVMFErrResourceConfiguration error on preparing MediaPlayer
I have a very brief video that I would like to include as a raw
resource in my app. The video plays correctly when loaded from the SD
card in the ApiDemos MediaPlayerDemo_Video example. However, if I
attempt to load it as a raw resource, I get the following error after
calling MediaPlayer.prepare:
12-18 15:23:08.190: ERROR/PlayerDriver(554): Command PLAYER_PREPARE
completed with an error or info PVMFErrResourceConfiguration
12-18 15:23:08.190: ERROR/MediaPlayer(1242): error (1, -16)
The (simplified) code:
AssetFileDescriptor afd = this.getResources().openRawResourceFd
(R.raw.thevideo);
MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer();
try {
mp.setDataSource(afd.getFileDescriptor(), afd.getStartOffset(),
afd.getLength());
afd.close();
mp.prepare();
} catch (Exception e) {}
What can I be doing wrong?
Thank you in advance.

[android-developers] TTS TalkBack doesn't read AlertDialog titles or messages?
So I tried turning on TalkBack to see how well my application works with the feature and I was surprised to discover that TalkBack does not speak the title or text of an AlertDialog. It's only speaking the text from the buttons I add to the dialog. Am I doing something wrong when I define my AlertDialogs or is this intended behavior? Do I need to code specifically against the AccessibilityManager to have AlertDialog text (or any other non-focusable text) spoken by TalkBack? I'm currently using 1.5 (SDK 3) in my manifest's minSdkVersion. As I understand it, I'd have to bump the setting to 1.6 (SDK 4) if i want to use the AccessibilityManager. Am I mistaken?
