[android-developers] Multiple Applications aggregating common data
Hello, I have a design question and I was wondering if you could give me some advice on best practices. I want to build a series of games, who share the same framework. They are supposed to store scores and statistics about different users in their own databases. The games are different Android applications but the user should be able to access a Statistics activity from each of them. This Statistics activity should be the same on all games and should tell the user what her score is and be able to show statistics across all games (applications) installed. Given that each game would store its own database of user statistics, the question that arises is where to aggregate the statistics and where to store this aggregate data. While the computation of the aggregate statistics could be done in each of the applications (through Content Providers), the problem that I can't find a decent answer to is: where do I store the data? If I store the aggregate data in a database of one of the applications (let's say the first game that the user installs), then what happens when the user decides to stick with game number 2 and uninstall the first one? Then the aggregate data gets deleted. Another option would be to store the aggregate data on an online server and then the applications would only have to talk to each other to calculate this data before sending it to the server. Making the applications talk only to the server and not each other is another option but it's rather more inefficient to do all the aggregation of the data on the server. My question here would be: is there a way to store the aggregate data in a database on the device that is independent from the applications? A database that would exist as long as at least one game is installed but would be deleted when the last game is uninstalled. Does anyone have any experience with such an architecture?

The Context / AttributeSet constructor is used when a view is inflated from
XML.
For creating a view {subclass} from code, you can make any constructor that
makes sense - it should be passed a Context, most likely won't have an
AttributeSet (since that comes from XML), and can have any other parameters
as necessary.

[android-developers] how to get blocked until the target activity returns.
With some research on the issue , I perceive that this question has sth to do with the mode singletask in the acitivity , I wanna guide user to enable wifi using the snippet below : Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN); // Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setFlags(flags) ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(com.android.settings, com.android.settings.WirelessSettings); intent.setComponent(componentName); startActivityForResult(intent , WIFI_SETTING_ACTIVITY_RETURN ) ; I thought that the initiating Activity should be blocked in the onActivityResult unless the WIFISetting activity exits. After some navigation on this topic , it should be caused by singletask . As you know , WIFI activity has to be launched as Singletask mode . So , would you like to shed some lights of the way of making the execution blocked in OnActivityResult unless WIFISettings activity exits.

[android-developers] AsyncTask not working
I am editing the android game LunarLander.
I have made a java library which has a class named Calls to track
which contains various event functions which make web service calls.
I want to make a background to call some of these functions(which
works fine when run individually)
inside the above game. For example, I call newGame in the function
doStart()
i.e. whenever a new game starts.
For this background call I used a class extends AsyncTask -
private class ng extends AsyncTaskVoid,Void,Void {
protected Void doInBackground(Void... sample){
Calls Game = new Calls();
Game.calls_init(URL, authcode); //works fine
Game.newGame(gameId, gameName); // the game stops
unexpectedly
return null;
}
}
all the above variables are well defined.
I wrote this class inside the class LunarThread extends Thread.
And called it inside doStart() like this -
new ng().execute();
when i run the game in AVD its works fine for 2-3 secs then its stops
unexpectedly.
I want UI to run smoothly independent of these background calls but
that is not happening.
Why isn't the AsyncTask working? Is there any other method.

[android-developers] Quick Question about Cameras on Androids
I am about to undertake a project where I might need to be able to activate, and take a picture with the Camera on an Android Tablet and/ or Phone. Ideally I would like this to be a 100% Browser based application with no code actually residing on the Android at all. This is an in house application, and is an interface into a much larger system. For now at least I have the luxury of controlling the devices, and the Tablet I have for development is the Motorola Xoom with Android 3.1. I also have an HTC Evo Shift, but phone compatibility isn't necessary in this project... Is this even possible, and if so can someone please refer me to some sample code/projects? This will be my first Tablet/Android app, but far from my first application. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

If the answer is 'no', then follow Kostya's suggestion, killing the thread in either onPause() or onStop(). If the answer is 'yes', then things get more complicated: I suggest putting the timer thread in a Service, not an Activity, sending a message to the UI Thread when it fires. Then that Thread will display only when it is in the foreground. But then you will probably want special logic to handle stale messages when the UI Thread executes onResume(). After all, sendMessageAtTime() and sendMessageDelayed enqueue the message at that time: they make no guarantees about when the Handler Thread will finally actually - process- the message. If the Thread has all activities paused, then that will be delayed until the right Activity gets an onResume() callback.

Besides: if it is a timer thread, shouldn't you really mean that it bring your activity back to view after the timer expires? It would make sense to cancel that timer when Home is pressed. And you can do that in onPause() or in onStop(). In fact, you should probably do that in onStop() no matter how you get there This would also simplify your code, since it is by design that the platform does not TELL you how you got to onStop(): it certainly does not tell you that it got there via a Home key. Also as has been pointed out many times now, overriding the expected result of the Home key is a really, REALLY bad idea. It is a good thing that the platform makes this difficult. It should not be done at all. Now I realize that some customers insist on this 'feature', even though it is such a bad idea. In which case, I pity you, but keep on slogging ahead.

[android-developers] How to use new languages with text_to_speech library?
Good morning, I have read about text_to_speech library ( http://developer.android.com/reference/android/speech/tts/TextToSpeech.html) and about Locale class (http://developer.android.com/reference/java/ util/Locale.html). It says that You can create a Locale for languages and countries that don't exist, and you can create instances for combinations that don't exist (such as de_US for German as spoken in the US). My question is: how can I use this library with languages such as Basque? Is it supported by this library? Thank you very much in advance.

[android-developers] Intent resolved to different process when running Unit Test
I have a small application that uses two activities. Both the activities
inherit from MapActivity and display a map (com.google.android.maps).
Since the Android Google Map documentation says:
Only one MapActivity is supported per process. Multiple MapActivities
running simultaneously are likely to interfere in unexpected and undesired
ways.
I modified my manifest to run the two activities in two different processes
(I have removed some lines to make it short):
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=com.example.myapp
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
/
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION /
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET /
application
android:icon=@drawable/icon
android:label=@string/app_name
android:theme=@android:style/Theme.Light
uses-library android:name=com.google.android.maps /
activity
android:name=.Activity1
android:process=.Activity1
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filterUnit
/activity
activity
android:name=.Activity2
android:process=.Activity2
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category android:name=android.intent.category.DEFAULT /
/intent-filter
/activity
/application
uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=8 /
/manifest
Now the application runs fine but I have problems when I what to run Unit
Tests on both the Activities.
For example:
package com.example.myapp;
public class Activity1Test extends
ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2Activity1 {
Activity1 mActivity;
public Activity1Test() {
super(com.example.myapp.Activity1, Activity1.class);
}
@Override
protected void setUp() throws Exception {
super.setUp();
setActivityInitialTouchMode(false);
setActivityIntent(new Intent());
mActivity = getActivity();//An exception is thrown at this
line
}
}
When I call the getActivity() method an exception is thrown:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Intent in process com.example.myapp resolved to
different process .Activity1: Intent { flg=0x1000
cmp=com.example.myapp/.Activity1 }
at android.app.Instrumentation.startActivitySync(Instrumentation.java:377)
at
android.test.InstrumentationTestCase.launchActivityWithIntent(InstrumentationTestCase.java:119)
at
android.test.ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2.getActivity(ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2.java:100)
at com.example.myapp.Activity1Test.setUp(Activity1Test.java:28)
at android.test.AndroidTestRunner.runTest(AndroidTestRunner.java:169)

at
android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner.onStart(InstrumentationTestRunner.java:520)
at
android.app.Instrumentation$InstrumentationThread.run(Instrumentation.java:1447)
Is there a way to make the Unit Test to attach to the correct process?

[android-developers] Emulator shows lock screen rather than my app screen for the first time. MENU button has to be clicked.
Hi, I'm new to Android development. I apologize if my question is too simple to be posted to this group, but I have not found a satisfactory answer through Google search. Start Eclipse. Create/open any simple HelloWorld Android project. Run the app. This will bring up the emulator. After a few minutes, the lock screen appears, instead of the expected HelloWorld default Activity screen. And I have to click MENU button to have my app's screen show up. To me this is an extra step, or a little bit frustrating, or confusing. Note that this does not happen in subsequent runs of my app, which is good. This is my development environment: Ubuntu 2.6.32 32-bit; Eclipse SDK 3.5.2; Android 2.3.3. Is this (showing the lock screen rather than my app screen for the first time) by design?

[android-developers] Re: Nexus S,how to exchange ndef data via p2p.
Hallo Tommy,
1. i send the ndef data by the enableForegroundNdefPush(this,
mMessage)function in onResume,but how can i known that the mMessage is
send over,can i got the notification or Intent?
You don't. Even if another device's NPP server picks up the NDEF
message from the NPP client, The NDEF push protocol provides no means
of acknowledgement that the message was actually received and
processed.
2. As i know,in p2p module there have two parts,the initiator
and the target.I think int the question one activity called
enableForegroundNdefPush(this, mMessage) , it's initiator ,am is think
right?
No. The NPP happens on a higher layer of abstraction than the NFC-DEP.
(The NFC-DEP is the NFC peer-to-peer data exchange protocol that knows
initiators and targets.) The NPP sits on top of the LLCP and the
LLCP sits on top of NFC-DEP. LLCP removes the restricition that the
initiator always starts a connection. In fact both, initiators and
targets, are equal on the LLCP layer. Both can listen on sockets and
create new sockets.
For NPP, the NPP server creates a listening LLCP socket and waits for
pushed NDEF messages. The NPP client is invoked by the foreground NDEF
push and sends NDEF messages to NPP servers.
3. If in question tow i'm right,the target(another Nexus S
phone,or a nfc reader in my desktop) received the ndef data
mMessage,and send a response to initiator,how can i got the ndef
response.
The NPP is one-way. You can't send a response to a received NDEF
message.
4. In target terminal such as another Nexus s phone,how can i get
the p2p inittiator pushed ndef data.
Ndef myTag=Ndef.get(tag);
myTag.connect();
if (myTag.isConnected())
{
myTag.getNdefMessage();
}
On the receiving device, the NDEF data should be delivered in an
NDEF_DISCOVERED intent (or through the respective foreground
dispatch).
br,
Michael

[android-developers] Acer iconia is losing connection
Hi I have the newest eclipse Android SDK -release 11- installed on Windows Vista. I updated the SDK and chose Android 3.0.1. I connected an Android 3.01 Acer Iconia Tab A500. Installed the original Acer USB driver. The Iconia shows up in Windows and I can connect to the Iconia's file system. When I start Eclipse the Iconia is shown in the DDMS device list. Then, after a short while, or when making screenshots of the Iconia screens in Eclipse / DDMS no devices are shown any more in the list. Some results: adb devices gives this error: * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 * ADB server didn't ACK * failed to start daemon * error: cannot connect to daemon System: Vista SR2 64 bit Eclipse (Helios) ADT release 11 All updated through ADT manager path's were set to ADB and the android SDK Client: Acer Iconia Tab A500 Android 3.01 Debugging over USB is enabled on the Iconia Problem: When I wait long enough, ca. 5 minutes, or when I was making screenshots, the connection was lost. Forums suggest that USB driver problems could be the possible cause Logs I have made copies of the session-messages This message appears in the DDMS Hierarchy viewer: The Acer Iconia somehow drops the connection: De externe host heeft een verbinding verbroken In plain English: The external host has disconnected a connection. This would strongly suggest that a process in the Acer Iconia Tab A 500 is at vault. Another -remote- possibility is that the Acer Iconia device driver is not suitable for 64 bit Windows Vista systems. This original device driver was downloaded from Acer Support, but the description does not indicate whether the driver is suitable for either 32 bit or 64 bit Windows.

[android-developers] How to progmatically send DTMF dones over the uplink with internal telephony API in-call
I'm working on a project that requires my app to be able to send DTMF tones on the voice's uplink frequency during an active call. My 2 conditions are: - We don't use a customized Android platform - We don't need to root the phone I've spent several days doing my homework and am aware that in-call DTMF sending is not supported by the current SDK/standard APIs. However, by using the relevant classes in com.android.internal.telephony I am hoping to mimick how the native Phone app does this. I followed this site on how to use internal APIs for standard 3rd party apps: https://devmaze.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/using-com-android-internal-part-1-introduction/ I've also setup myself up with the Android OS dev environment and am able to run the Phone app in debug mode on an emulator to figure its inner workings. I tried various ways on a stock standard emulator but the errors I got were: 1) After trying to install a renamed app based on Phone.apk's source using the sharedUserId of android.uid.phone, I got: Installation error: INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE No doubt due to the fact I don't have the system cert to sign it. 2) After trying to write a custom app based on the relevant DTMF tone sending code from Phone.apk's source, I get the following error at setting up the PhoneFactory; java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: not allowed to send broadcast android.provider.Telephony.SPN_STRINGS_UPDATED. No doubt due to the fact my app doesn't have the right permissions - AndroidManifest.xml is setup with the same permissions as Phone.apk. I'm at a loss as to what else I could try. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Simon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Take a picture in every hour
Hi all, I am developing an app which need the user to choose a time period and my app will use the camera to take picture in every given time period (say, every hour). User should not be involved into these actions (taking pictures) --- for example, the user could simply put the phone on a dock pointing to somewhere and do other things. During this time, my app will periodically take picture, analyse them, take some actions and store some information. I read the dev. docs. about the camera. If I use takePicture(), then it seems that user have to be involved when the app need to take a picture. Like pop up some window asking user to press some button, etc. Is there any way to meet my requirement? BTW, I need to start a service in background to take the pictures.

[android-developers] Create shortcuts one the home screen
I have a heap of doubt. What i'd like to do is: 1) i'm inside an activity, there are 2 buttons. If i click the first one a shortcut is created in my home screen. The shortcut open an html page that has been previously downloaded, so i want it to use the default browser but i don't want to use internet cause i already have the page on the sd.. 2)The second button create another shortcut that starts an activity froma another application. And i want to pass to the activity some extra argumets (As strings for example)... I found some link and some similar questions like http://codinggeek.org/2011/01/02/android-how-to-add-home-screen-shortcuts-to-your-app/ and Android: Is there a programming way to create a web shortcut on home screen They seem to be the answer to my question but someone told me that this code is not gonna work on all devices and that is deprecated...This technique is not recommended. This is an internal implementation, not part of the Android SDK. It will not work on all home screen implementations. It may not work on all past versions of Android. It may not work in future versions of Android, as Google is not obligated to maintain internal undocumented interfaces. Please do not use this i already asked this on stackoverflow and this is teh answer i got http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6337431/android-create-shortcuts-on-the-home-screen This user says The correct way is to listen for a shortcut request from the home screen-- with an intent filter like so in your manifest... But i' a beginner and i can't actually see the difference from the code example i provided and the last one.both use intents and the cose is pretty the same, the only difference is in the manifest part. The first example only set up a permission the second one aintent filter...but what actually means to listen for a shortcut request from the home screen..i mean it's my application that is asking the home screen to add a shortcut not the oppsite..tnx -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] How to develop an app which controls external objects through USB?
Hi there, I have a question about how I can approach an art project. I am a programmer - but really have just experience in the software world, but thinking about a project that interfaces with hardware. So it would be me building an app on Android: - Interfacing this app with a physical device through USB (or any connectivity that is simple to code up such as bluetooth) - Then ideally the app would be able to control the physical device (now this could be a wheel, a set of levers, some kind of physical controllable device) I mean I am just hoping for some kick starters in the right direction here. Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is Android the wrong platform for this? If not, what is the type of hardware that I should be looking for, and what kind of interfacing? and are there any sample code projects, or APIs that I should be looking for? Any help, in any direction would be so gratefully received Regards Shoop -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

(beacause the demo activity class we have created is not capable of loading the saved state) Yeah, we normaly don't set any saved instance state, but android framework made such a way that, we should be calling that.

[android-developers] Emulator shows the lock screen rather than my app's screen for the first time. MENU key has to be clicked.
Hi, I'm relatively new to Android development. The issue above has been observed by several of my colleagues. I have not found a satisfactory solution through search engines. To reproduce it: Start Eclipse. Create/open any simple HelloWorld Android project that has a simple UI. Run the app. This will bring up the emulator. After a few minutes, the lock screen appears on the emulator, rather than the expected HelloWorld default Activity screen. And I have to click MENU key to have my app's screen show up. To me this is an extra step, or a little bit frustrating, or confusing. Note that this does not happen in subsequent runs of my app, which is good. This is my development environment: Ubuntu 2.6.32 32-bit; Eclipse SDK 3.5.2; Android 2.3.3. Is this (showing the lock screen rather than my app's screen for the first time) by design? How can I skip this extra step? Thanks in advance, - Jonathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Porting existing junit test cases to Android
Hi, I have a set cross platform libraries(C++) which work on Windows, Mac and Android. For testing the libraries on Windows/Mac I have generated Java wrappers using Swig, and created test cases using JUnit4. My libraries dont have any UI component, everything is api calls. Now for test development on Android, I would like the same test cases to run on Android, but it seems that all the testcasses on android should derive from ActivityInstrumentationTestCase class. Now since my test cases never interact with UI and everything is just api calls so I dont need instrumentation. So my question is: Can I just run my existing test cases on Android without deriving from ActivityInstrumentationTestCase as they dont interact with any UI. I can derive my tst cases from ActivityInstrumentationTestCase but that would lead to lot of duplicate code, I understand that Android doesn't have JUnit 4 on it.

Remember, you signed a contract with Google when you placed your app on the market. Google can enforce any provision of that contract at any time and you have no recourse if you violated it.

[android-developers] Re: Need a NFC compatible Desktop NFC-Reader
Hallo Ferit, i'm working on some simple NFC-Applications and i want to realize a simple scenario, where the Nexus S sends some Text / URI / SmartPoster to a desktop NFC-Reader. Have a look at nfcpy ( https://launchpad.net/nfcpy ) and which readers it supports. For the moment, nfcpy is the only known LLCP implementation for desktops that also supports the NPP. - Is it possible to set the nexus s as a passive nfc tag? So the usb nfc reader thinks that it is reading a simple tag / sticker. Possibly you could abuse the secure element/card emulation to do this, but you would need to modify the phone's firmware to get the required access. Therefore, it is best to stick with peer-to-peer mode for exchange of NDEF messages between NFC devices. Also note that card emulation is intended for secure applications -- that require the high security standards of a (contactless) smartcard -- and *not* for emulating NFC tags with NDEF data. I'm using a usb hid(human interface device) reader which outputs some cryptic ID's if a passive tag(sticker) is scanned but if i want to write a tag with the nexus s nothing happens. There is no new intent started at the ddms. You can't access the Nexus S as if it were a *NFC tag*. (Don't confuse _NFC tag_ with _card emulation_, see note above.) br, Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Perhaps one of your competitors reported you for stealing from them and Google acted on it. I have no idea. Is there anything stopping you from creating a new account, paying the $25 again and republishing your app? It's not ideal, but since you have a free app, it's not like you have to migrate the users. If your app is good, and I believe it was, your rank would rise fairly quickly. This is a workaround. I hope that Google will change their internal policy and start warning the developers before deleting applications and accounts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Google removed 10 mallware apps - I'm affected. Please help
That's a fair enough assessment of what went wrong. But its really not a justification to someone with an excruciatingly penetrating app (I mean seriously, he's sending ioctls to drivers to support really old platforms) for just banning the developer account. I understand you might not be in the capacity to give an official, legal opinion on the matter so I take your comment with a grain of salt, but still... the lack of due process for misdemeanors is ridiculous. Keyword spamming? If anyone in their right minds that was trying to push an otherwise legit app in a market of (in his case, probably) hundreds of competitors, I'd hope there was some sort of recourse for small, indie developers to pay contrition and move on without having to rebrand their apps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Google removed 10 mallware apps - I'm affected. Please help
To be clear: I'm not justifying anything and I don't know more about Market than you guys do. I actually probably know less since I haven't published an app in a couple of years. I was only commenting on the discussion about whether that particular app was using too many keywords. I do not know whether this is an actual issue, whether this was the reason for the takedown, etc. Android is a big project, as much as I'd like to know everything there is to know about it, I'm not an expert in every area :) On Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 11:27 PM, Chris crehb...@gmail.com wrote: That's a fair enough assessment of what went wrong.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Reading PayWave (ISO14443-B format) track information using Android 2.3.3 NFC API
Hallo Shekhar, if the card supports ISO 14443-4 (which every EMV card should do) you can access this card with APDU commands through ISO-DEP. (* Except for some cards that seem to require a higher magnetic field strength than the Nexus S provides.) Using APUD commands you can then access whatever information the EMV standards allow you to access. br, Michael On 14.06.2011 08:37 Shekhar wrote: Hi Michael, I have a doubt.You mean to say that if the EMV card supports ISO 14443 standard then we can be able to read the payment details of the credit cards using APDU commands? Thanks, Shekhar On Apr 25, 5:09 pm, Michael Roland mi.rol...@gmail.com wrote: Hallo lal, I'm trying to Read Track data for Payment cards (PayWave, PayPass). As per my understanding they follow ISO 14443 B. With new NFC API, byte[] b1 = myTag.getHiLayerResponse(); //b1 is not null, but length == 0 [...] result = myTag.transceive(b1); It will certainly not help if you send the bytes retrieved from getHiLayerResponse() back to the card. Especially if you say they are zero length anyways. These payment cards implement theEMVstandards. Application-to- application communication is done on the level of APDUs. Therefore, it should not matter if this card is ISO 14443 Type A or Type B. What matters is that IsoDep (= ISO 14443-4) is supported. Through the IsoDep interface you directly transmit APDU commands. Have a look at the ISO/IEC 7816-4 standard on how APDU command-response pairs are formatted. Regarding theEMVprotocol the specifications are available from EMVCo's website:http://www.emvco.com/ br, Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: SoundPool and DualCore (Samsung Galaxy S2) : Random Crashes ingame
I ruled out following things: * Mediaplayer still works (for Background Loops) * Increasing the MaxStream doesn't solve the Problem * Switching refering Context to the most actuall doesn't solve the Problem * Commenting out the AudioManager (vor current Volumes) doesn't solve the Problem So even if I use the SoundManager in the most simple way possible the game crashes randomly after 30sec-5 min Only by switching of FX Sounds completely the game runs smooth. I'm using OGG Files with a very low sample Rate, all around 5-15 kb size, but i don't think that's the problem here. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
