[android-developers] Re: Getting Acquired: Selling Apps and Games to a Business/Investor

2012-03-29 Thread Mark Carter

  Does Google currently facilitate the transfer of acquired apps/games 
from one developer account to another? 

Earlier this month I emailed Google to transfer my paid app from my 
personal Google account to my Google Apps for Business account. I was 
expecting it to take days or weeks so thought there would be no harm 
emailing them just before bedtime. Woke up the next morning to find the app 
had been transferred in less than two hours and that it had been 
unpublished (presumably because there was some subtle change required by 
me to some pricing - can't remember exactly). So I lost almost half a 
day's - yeah, I like a good sleep - sales but not a big deal in the grand 
scheme of things.

Also, devs need to be aware of this:

 Some specific questions I have:

- Does Google currently facilitate the transfer of acquired apps/games 
from one developer account to another?
- If so, what are the requirements?
- If not, is this something Google may plan for the future?
- Does Google recommend any best practices for Android Developers so 
that they may one day sell their app with minimal complications? Perhaps 
creating a separate dev account for each account, or signing each app with 
a different key, or any other practices?
- Can a developer change the signing key of an app upon request or 
through any automated means?


 I'm guessing the process is rudimentary and relegated to the huge 
 companies buying big name apps like Draw Something, but curious to hear 
 your thoughts. I'm still hoping Google will implement some simpler 
 Developer features like Github-style organization/team management so 
 multiple developers can administer an application in the Market/Play.

 Thanks for your help!

  send them directly to a server
 This depends what type of interface you have at the server side.
 Without knowing the server side interface, no one can tell you how to
 communicate with it from an Android platform. First you need to
 clarify your server side architecture, a question which is not
 directly related to Android SDK. If the server you should send data is
 already there, contact the responsible people to find out its
 interface. If you should develop the server also, I guess you need to
 research the best practices for server side architectures to decide
 which one fits best your scenario.

 I had code that caught some undocumented intents on Android 2.2+, but 
 this code doesn't seem to work on ICS. What I'd like to do is detect 
 when a headset connects/disconnects and perform certain actions. 
 Currently I have the following Scala code:

private def initSCOV11() {
  bluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter

  val listener = new BluetoothProfile.ServiceListener {

def onServiceConnected(profile:Int, proxy:BluetoothProfile) {
  Log.d(spielcheck, Profile: +profile+, Proxy: +proxy)
  Log.d(spielcheck, proxy.getConnectedDevices.toString)
}

def onServiceDisconnected(profile:Int) {
  Log.d(spielcheck, Profile: +profile)
  if(profile == BluetoothProfile.HEADSET)
bluetoothHeadsetDisconnected()
}

  }

  Log.d(spielcheck, Value: 
 +bluetoothAdapter.getProfileProxy(service, listener, 
 BluetoothProfile.HEADSET))
}

 getProfileProxy returns true, and the onServiceConnected gets called. If 
 there are no headsets connected, the list is empty, but with my SCO 
 earpiece connected, I get its MAC address in the list. This seems odd to 
 me, since if no headsets are connected, I'd not expect this method to 
 get called at all.

 My assumption was that this code would trigger whenever a headset is 
 connected or disconnected from the device, but I've 
 activated/deactivated both SCO and A2DP headsets and the callbacks 
 aren't triggered. I must be misunderstanding what these callbacks do. 
 Instead of being called when individual devices connect/disconnect, they 
 must be called when the profiles are available to be queried or something.

 How do I set up code to run when a headset connects/disconnects?

The problem is that the last message received by the server is on
08:32:54 after that 10 messages are sended but not received (before
the broadcast received).

¿Is there any way to detect if the message has arrive to the server?
¿Other way to test connectivity or test the server? this is the way I
implement the socket:

sock = new Socket();
sock.bind(null);
InetSocketAddress isa = new
InetSocketAddress(serverIPAddress,serverPort);
sock.connect(isa, conectionTimeOut);
sock.setKeepAlive(true);
isR = new InputStreamReader(sock.getInputStream(), UTF8);
reader = new BufferedReader(isR);
out = new BufferedWriter(new
OutputStreamWriter(sock.getOutputStream(), UTF8));

Thank you so much

  Beyond ICS? I don't know what this means.

  And what do you mean by would be good to know?

  Should we, developers, and our users, moonlight as Android's test

 I think we dont have a CTS around this behavior. I will look at filing a

  Ideally, apps should not have to listen to any broadcasts to handle
  network switches and should get resets on an existing socket.

  Not ideally -- really -- apps are supposed to work on more than the 1.6%
  of devices with ICS.

  And beyond ICS - what portion of the market is that, at this time,
  exactly?

[android-developers] Re: Which on is best?

2012-03-29 Thread EhyehAsherEhyeh

ICS is is quite superior in terms of available features (in fact,
anything after 3.0 has a slew of improvements which you sorely miss
when developing for lower versions), however, ICS also has abysmal
adoption, with less than 2% of users, and 2.1-2.3.7 accounting for
~90% of users (2.1 ~7%, 2.2 ~25%, 2.3.3-2.3.7 ~60%, numbers quoted
from memory, you can check for updated numbers, but I believe they
will be close to these). So even though ICS would be a lot nicer to
the developer, if you wish to actually reach any kind of market
segment, you have to account for versions down to at least 2.2.3,
unfortunately.

 Maybe it's stupid to point you at that, because you've probably already 
 seen it?

 If nobody has a good answer for this (I suspect somebody does, though
 I don't know) it probably wouldn't too hard to dig through the system
 and see how it's happening (the blinking / solid thing).

 It looks like this isn't a standard intent.  It isn't documented, it
 looks like it's declared as GPS_FIX_CHANGE_ACTION, but using
 undocumented API features is a bad idea.

 P.s., off the top of my head, would it be possible to register a
 passive listener, and listen for locations from that?

[android-developers] Writing files in UTF-8

In my application users can export their data (or a subset of it) to a CSV 
file (to be used in Excel or any other spreadsheet app).
However some of my users are reporting that if they export some that 
contains non-western characters (like chinese or hebrew writings) the text 
is not correctly in the export.

When I try this myself I indeed see that the text is not correct. Here is 
the code that writes the content to the file (UTF-8 encoded).

Writer out = null;
try {
out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
new FileOutputStream(file), UTF-8
));
out.write(result.toString());
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, The encoding is not supported!, e);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, The file is not found, e);
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, Exception occurred during export..., e);
} finally {
if (out != null) {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, Could not close the writer, e);
}
}
}

Is there anything else that I can do to optimize my code to support those 
languages?

Kr,

Dirk Vranckaert

[android-developers] Re: Different sized images, arrangement and layout problem

2012-03-29 Thread EhyehAsherEhyeh

ScrollView can only hold one view, so put a LinearLayout in there
(orientation horizontal). Put three LinearLayouts in that
LinearLayout, use layout_weight to give them equal spacing (doesn't
matter what you set each weight to as long as they each get equal
weight and as long as those three are the only immediate children of
the wrapping LinearLayout.) The weights indicate how large a portion
of the free space each layout should get, after they've each been
allotted the width they request in layout_width, so set each of them
to width=0dp, which means all the space is free space and the
weights should distribute all available width. Once that's done you
have your three columns, so just set each imageview you add to them to
have width=fill_parent and an appropriate scaling type and you're
done.

sock = new Socket();
sock.bind(null);
InetSocketAddress isa = new
InetSocketAddress(serverIPAddress,serverPort);
sock.connect(isa, conectionTimeOut);
sock.setKeepAlive(true);
isR = new InputStreamReader(sock.getInputStream(),
UTF8);
reader = new BufferedReader(isR);
out = new BufferedWriter(new
OutputStreamWriter(sock.getOutputStream(), UTF8));


Thank you so much

  Beyond ICS? I don't know what this means.

  My flagship Galaxy Nexus still hasn't received 4.0.3.

  And what do you mean by would be good to know?

  Should we, developers, and our users, moonlight as Android's test
  department?

 I think we dont have a CTS around this behavior. I will look at filing a
 bug internally for this to ensure things remain sane going forward.

 Thanks









  Ideally, apps should not have to listen to any broadcasts to handle
  network switches and should get resets on an existing socket.

  Not ideally -- really -- apps are supposed to work on more than the 1.6%
  of devices with ICS.

  And beyond ICS - what portion of the market is that, at this time,
  exactly?

[android-developers] Detect SMS sending limitation

2012-03-29 Thread Jawwad Farooq

Hi All,

Is there still a limitation on sending SMS in Android 2.2+ versions?
In Android 2.2, an App can't send more than 100 messages in an hour.

And if this limitation is removed in later versions of Android, is
there any standard way to detect that if the phone can send more than
100 messages or not?


Regards,


Jawwad

[android-developers] Tool to dump available API at Android device

Android is a source opened OS, and Google release API at web-side. However, 
still has many function can't be implemented by public APIs. Many developer 
has to take risk to use undocumented API.

So I release a tool to dumping all classes (includes disclosed and 
undocumented) at Android device, to help developer to find out undocumented

No. You cannot reduce the size of a view beyond their minimum size. Using
wrap_content ensures that the DatePicker is just big enough to enclose its
contents.

DatePicker
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content

 the wrapping LinearLayout.) The weights indicate how large a portion
 of the free space each layout should get, after they've each been
 allotted the width they request in layout_width, so set each of them
 to width=0dp, which means all the space is free space and the
 weights should distribute all available width. Once that's done you

[android-developers] Android HID bluetooth profile

2012-03-29 Thread I-Sheng Lin

Hi Android developers,

I have done that the porting of HID profile onto Android 2.3 as the host.

My Android device(Gingerbread) now is able to connect to the Bluetooth
mouse/kb and it works really nice!

However, my question is that it seems very lack of information about to
make Android device as the client side.

For example, simulate the Android device can work as the KB/mouse and
connect it to the other Android device through Bluetooth.

I know that Cyanogenmod allows us to do it and yes, I have a sample code
and it works perfectly.

Unfortunately, when I install the code onto my generic Android 2.3, the
Bluetooth can be connected but drop right after being connected.

Does anyone know why this happened on Android 2.3?

Any clue will be highly appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Accessing a class function from another class

2012-03-29 Thread Matt Green

Hi Lew,

Yeah, my terminology was a bit off.

I've got a class, an instance of which is run at program start:

public class ServerPushActivity extends Activity {
ListView listView1;
LogItemAdapter logItemAdapter;
ArrayListLogRecord logs;

public void updateList(){

}
}

The updateList() function adds some items to the local ArrayList and
uses that to populate a ListView.

Then I have another Class which is triggered by the C2DM call:
public class C2DMMessageReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

}
}

What I need is some way of getting the C2DMMessageReceiver.onRecieve()
function to run the ServerPushActivity.updateList() function against
the instance of ServerPushActivity that is created when the program
starts.

I'm thinking I need to do something with Intents, or I could be coding
the thing completely the wrong way and I need to move my data store
out of a variable local to the main function. It's a problem with
doing a fair amount of coding in the past (C, VB, PHP, etc), but this
is my first Android app, so I'm not used to all the android specific
bits.

 The two most common mechanisms are polling and callbacks.

 A poller loops around, perhaps after a delay each cycle, usually in a

 state, or after a timeout, the poller returns.

 A callback implements an interface that the service knows about. The
 service calls the known method on the callback object.

 By the way, unless you are using 'static' methods, and not really even
 then, a class doesn't call another class. An instance calls methods on an
 instance.

  public interface FooListener

  public class FooClient implements FooListener, Runnable
  {
    private final transient Logger logger = getLogger(getClass());

    private final FooService service = obtainFooService();

[android-developers] Re: Different sized images, arrangement and layout problem

2012-03-29 Thread EhyehAsherEhyeh

I don't believe so, but I am not absolutely certain it's impossible.
As for keeping track of which layout to add to in my example, I'd just
use an array of LinearLayouts, which you find on Activity creation,
then keep an int to increment each time you add an image and use that
modulus 3 (or however many columns you want) to index the array:

linearLayoutArray[index%3].addView(...);
index++;

 In that case, I would have to add to one of the 3 linear layouts usings
 their id, no? I would also need to keep track of which linear layout I

 Can I have a gridView with different heights of images, fitting together
 perfectly?

[android-developers] Re: Writing files in UTF-8

Why are you using FileOutputStream AND OutputStreamWriter AND
BufferedWriter?

I need the OutputStreamWriter to specify the encoding, however that doesn't
seem to work...

What is the type of result? How did you put content in it?

The result is a CSV file, I just loop over some DB records and build a
string, then I write the string to the writer...

You are not checking the returnvalue of your write statement.

the Writer.write(..) method does not return anything... it's void...!

Please explain exactly what is wrong with it.

I thought I did, but anyway, I'll do it again:
Very simplistic explained: so in the application text (that the user
enters) is stored in a DB, I read the contents of the DB and construct a
string. Then I write the string in the writer (to the file)!
So when I do so for Dutch, German, English, Frensh,... (all western
languages) it works. However users started reporting that when inputting
Chinese or Hebrew characters the application works just fine but for the
export the content of the CSV file is unreadable. You can open the CSV file
in a text-editor or a spreadsheet editor but the characters that should be
Chinese or Hebrew are just unreadable characters.

So instead of seeing something like this:
這是一個測試
I see something like this:
â €å”€å”€å”€à €à €à €ç¼€ç¼€ç¼€ç¼€ç¼€ç¼€ç¼€Ì€Ì€Ì€Ì€Ì€Ì€

So it's a matter of encoding that is not correct. But I am encoding in
UTF-8 so I don't see the issue...

Re: [android-developers] How to get the TextView values in ListView

2012-03-29 Thread Mahabaleshwara Adiga

Hi,

If you want to access textview values from ListView, then you should use
this code:

public void onItemClick(AdapterView? arg0,View arg1,int position,long id)
{

TextView tv=(TextView) arg1.findViewById(R.id.videoId);
String value=tv.getText().toString();

}



Thanks  Regards,
 M.Adiga,
 eesha...@gmail.com




On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 10:20 PM, Justin Anderson magouyaw...@gmail.comwrote:

 String[] data;

   public void onItemClick(AdapterView? arg0, View arg1, int position,
  long id) {

   String temp=  data[position];
  TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.

 videoId);
tv.setText(temp);

  }

 This is not correct... He is not wanting to SET the text of the text
 view.  He is wanting to GET the text from the text view.  Also, you can't
 do findViewById in here because every list view row has the same id.  You
 are going to get the first one every time doing this.

 i want to extract the textview values of that corresponding row.

 No you don't... The textviews in a list view are intended for display
 purposes only.  They are intended to be a user display of the back-end data
 that you have, meaning your adapter

 How to get these values..???

 What you need to do is access the DATA in your adapter at the given
 position... So there are a couple ways to get this data...

 If you have a refrence to your adapter, you could do something like this:
 String value = (String)_adapter.getItem(position);
 Or, if you have direct access to your data structure, say, an array of
 strings, you could do something like this: String value =
 stringVals[position];

 Hope that helps...

[android-developers] populating a Spinner with various types of Listxxx class

2012-03-29 Thread Jim Graham


While working on my current app, I find myself needing to populate
a spinner (and a MultiSpinner, but that one's easy---feed it the
list directly) from data that's stored in various types of Lists
(ListString, ListInteger, ListCamera.Size, and probably
Listint[]).

So far, I've read all kinds of stuff about the ArrayList type, and
when I search for Listx I get ArrayListx[] instead.  I THOUGHT
I had the solution, using

   String[] foo = bar.toArray();

Eclipse threw an error, and required me to cast that to String[] as:

   String[] foo = (String[]) bar.toArray();

And this caused a force close, where the error stated that you can't
cast toArray() to String[].

I've gone through multiple searches through this list, Stack Overflow,
XDA, google, books and e-books on both Android and Java in general, and
have yet to find anything that works.  If I can just successfully (i.e.,
without a force close) get that Listx to x[] (where 'x' is String,
Integer, etc.), I could then feed that to the ArrayAdapter and feed
the Spinner.

Could someone help me out with that, please?  I'm sure that toArray()
is part of the answer, but I haven't found a working example, and my
(mis) understanding of it was clearly wrong.

Thanks,

Re: [android-developers] Re: Access Point Change detection

Yes -- have the server confirm each message (or a batch of messages) to 
the client.


The client would only removes from its queue those messages that have 
been confirmed.


Now you won't have dropped messages, but you may have some messages 
being sent twice - if the network disconnects at the wrong time and the 
client doesn't receive the confirmation for a message that was accepted 
by the server.


To avoid this last issue, assign each message a unique id and have the 
server ignore, but confirm, duplicates.


Not much to do with Android, of course - and I suspect Googling should 
give you a bunch of better ideas than the above :)

Sorry but you did not understand my question. You wrote

Are you shure you use an utf-8 capable editor?

That looks like what an editor that cannot handle utf-8 would display.

All this encoding is very interesting and I would like to help you.

Suggesting:
-make a small utf-8 file with those Chinese characters.
-put that file somewhere on the internet so we can download it.
-make an activity that just reads the file in a string and writes
the contents of that string to another file.
-compare the two files.

If you publish your activity code here (keep it as small as possible)
I will experiment with it.

Re: [android-developers] populating a Spinner with various types of Listxxx class

The issue is that you're trying to cast *the array* whereas you intent 
was probably to cast *each element of the array*.


You could try this:

for (Camera.Size size : cameraSizeList) {
stringArray.add(size.toString());
}

... etc

Or you could combine the arrays into one Object[] array. The adapter 
would then call toString on each Object inside the array.


https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/widget/ArrayAdapter.java#L389

But if you do that, you won't be able to refer to objects in the array 
and know their types (which may be useful), unless you used instanceof.


To keep type information, you could implement wrappers for your objects 
that have a common base class (or interface), overriding toString() for 
binding, and implementing other methods that would do stuff specific to 
your application logic.

[android-developers] Re: Writing files in UTF-8

Just a thougth: does the produced file have a BOM (Byte Order Mark)
as the first bytes?

If not you have to write them yourself.

[android-developers] Re: Writing files in UTF-8



 Ok. But then why also a BufferedWriter?  

 
The BufferedWriter is indeed obsolete but leaving it out doesn't change 
anything...

so of what type is result in result.toString()?  


Result is of type StringBuilder.

Do characters like ö, é come through ok?  


These do indeed come through correctly! 

Are you shure you use an utf-8 capable editor?  


Yes I'm sure :) I'm using Notepadd++ ;)

I attached the file as it is exported!

the produced file does not have a BOM (or at least I don't know :) )
How can I write 'them' myself?

Kr,

Dirk

Thank you for poiting out to me the Byte Order Mark.

I've added out.write('\ufeff'); to write the Byte Order Mark and you can 
see in the attachment the export now works fine! :)

This is my code now:

out = new OutputStreamWriter(
new FileOutputStream(file), UTF-8
);
out.write('\ufeff');
out.write(result.toString());
out.flush();

Re: [android-developers] populating a Spinner with various types of Listxxx class

2012-03-29 Thread Jim Graham

On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 03:37:19PM +0400, Kostya Vasilyev wrote:
 The issue is that you're trying to cast *the array* whereas you
 intent was probably to cast *each element of the array*.

I was just trying to directly convert the List (in this case,
ListString) to an array of strings (String[]).  I hadn't gotten
as far as the other settings types yet---just preparing for them
when I get to them.

The idea here is to use one spinner for all of the settings types.
That one spinner will be reloaded depending on the type of settings
the user is working with (selected from a ListView).  Having spinners
for ALL of the settings works fine on my tablet, but would have to be
so tiny on a phone it'd be impossible to use.  So, the user selects
one settings mode, the spinner is reloaded, and the user makes their
choice.  Then, ohItemClicked responds accordingly for the settings
type currently in effect.

A MultiSpinner (spinner with checkboxes instead of radiobuttons) will
handle options where more than one can apply.  But that one's easy---you
just load it directly from a List.

 You could try this:
 
 for (Camera.Size size : cameraSizeList) {
 stringArray.add(size.toString());
 }
 
 ... etc

I was hoping for a direct conversio for each List to each respective
array, but I'm starting to think that might not be ideal, after all.

 Or you could combine the arrays into one Object[] array. The adapter
 would then call toString on each Object inside the array.

Again, multiple arrays, not one.

 But if you do that, you won't be able to refer to objects in the
 array and know their types (which may be useful), unless you used
 instanceof.

I've already got that covered.  :-)   A simple switch() in onItemClicked
will determine which type of settings are in effect, and respond
accordingly.

 To keep type information, you could implement wrappers for your
 objects that have a common base class (or interface), overriding
 toString() for binding, and implementing other methods that would do
 stuff specific to your application logic.

I'm afraid that's far above my level at this point (let's put it this
way, I was debating on whether to post this in this list or the
android-for-beginners list).  I'm still not sure whether that list
would have been more appropriate (in other words, did I ask yet another
beginner-level question here, or was it more at an intermediate level?).

Either way, I can use the example you showed above, and I think that'll
work for me.

Thanks,

[android-developers] Wifi and phone sleep state

2012-03-29 Thread Put_tiMe

I have a situation where in I use AlarmManager to wake up once in a few 
minutes, and switch on/off wifi.
If I don't use the device for a while, then the wifi never connects to the 
preferred wifi network.
Is there anything happening with the wifi if the phone is in a sleep state?
 
And how exactly does the phone reach the sleep state?
 
In a sleep state, will the phone not connect to wifi?

The WiFi radio will power down. Use a WifiLock if you need WiFi. Bear
in mind that this increases power drain.

[android-developers] Re: release keys do not work

2012-03-29 Thread i b

When I recently switched to a new computer and created a new keystore
and various alias keystores, my release keys no longer work. The debug
key is OK (for debugging only)

For example, I gave their site this MD5 fingerprint:
C0:28:EE:1F:D7:59:C3:5F:4B:5F:4F:F4:40:8F:6B:78

and was given this:
 android:apiKey=0VhiLw2B2QaMVlZjc1cqpMVo5SK0z4Ctm3f5oAQ

which does not work

I have published numerous apps before and am fairly sure that I am now
signing them correctly for Export

I had the same problem a year or two ago. I believe that Google is not
registering my key

Last time, I wrote them about it, and a few days later the release key
began to work, odd as that sounds

This must be a rare problem, and perhaps due to my account
registration being confused 3 years ago (?)

Any suggestions, as I cannot update or publish new apps till I figure this out?

 this release key:

 Everything seems normal but this key does not work. Just inserting it
 where my debug key was before, causes the maps to come up blank.

 I don't understand how this could happen.

 Because of this key problem, I have had to unpublish my five apps as
 arecent download customer complained that the maps failed to work for
 them either.

 Now it seems to me that because I never had an uninstall or complaint
 from any other customer before, that all my apps must have been
 working OK till just a few days ago.

 I made no code changes yet my published apps ceased to work. I believe
 this unusual problem is not my fault but rather due to a flaw in the
 way the release key is generated or recognized by Google.

 This is a major problem for me and I need some assistance ASAP.

[android-developers] Re: mediascannerconnection.scanFile does not update album_art

2012-03-29 Thread androidmediadeveloper

Let me clarify the code, the post from last night was in sheer
exhaustion after having looked at it for hours on end.



Now, I have the mediascanner invoked from inside a thread to pick up
the new metadata and art that has been written to the file


Thread thread = new Thread()
{
@Override
public void run() {
ListString
mTrackUris = getListOfChangedFiles();

if
(mTrackUris != null  !mTrackUris.isEmpty()) {
 
final Iterator iter = mTrackUris.iterator();
 
SingleMediaScanner singleFileScanner = new
SingleMediaScanner(FetchResultDetailActivity.this,
mTrackUris.size());


while(iter.hasNext()) {

final String track = (String) iter.next();


if (track != null) {

if (Consts.DEBUG) {

Log.i(TAG, String.format(Kicking the mediascanner for
track: %s, track));

}


//
This clears off the entry out of the audio_meta, albums and album_art
tables. This is expected, so that is good

int
rowsUpdated =
getContentResolver().delete(MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
_data = ' + track + ', null);



singleFileScanner.setFilepath(track);

singleFileScanner.startScan();

}
}
 }

And, this is my mediascanner class

private class SingleMediaScanner implements
MediaScannerConnectionClient {

private MediaScannerConnection mMediaScanner;
private String mFilepath;
private int mNumFilesToScan;

public SingleMediaScanner(Context context, int numFilesToScan) {
mNumFilesToScan = numFilesToScan;
mMediaScanner = new MediaScannerConnection(context, this);
}

@Override
public void onMediaScannerConnected() {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.i(TAG, String.format(Scan starting for: 
%s, mFilepath));
}
mMediaScanner.scanFile(mFilepath, null);
}

@Override
public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.i(TAG, String.format(Scan finished for: 
%s, uri: %s, path,
uri.toString()));
}
mMediaScanner.disconnect();
if (--mNumFilesToScan == 0) {
h.sendEmptyMessageDelayed(SAVE_ART2, 10);

After the scanner runs, if I pull the database file from the phone out

 I am basically trying to update the album_art on a user's music
 collection. So, when a user is playing a track, he/she can make a get
 art request. I fetch art from an external source and then actually
 write the art and metadata to the mp3 file. All this is working great,
 the file is accurately written with the new art.

 My problem however is this, since the player uses the android
 medialibrary to display metadata and art (MedisStore.Audio.Media),

[android-developers] Activity Intent-Filter configuration

2012-03-29 Thread rk

Hi All,

My application is having an launcher activity with following intent-
filter
Action - android.intent.action.VIEW
Category  - android.intent.category.DEFAULT
Mime-type -image/jpeg

From 'Dual File Manger', When I try to open a file, which is not
having proper extension (name file.txy, NOT txt ) and as mime-type is
not known to Dual File Manger,  Resolver Activity is listing many
applications including my Application/Activity, none of these
application can open this file, as it is not standard file-extension.

When I checked logcat logs, I observed following line

I/ActivityManager(154): START {act=android.intent.action.VIEW
dat=file:///sdcard/folder/file.txy typ=*/* cmp=android/
com.android.internal.app.ResolverActivity} from pid

I would like to know why my App/Activity is listed, even-though its
not supporting */* mime-type ?
In this case, how Can I avoid my app listing in Resolver Activity ?

Thanks

Sure it is. */* is a wildcard. Anything matches.

Tell the authors of Dual File Manager to not use */* as a MIME type.

[android-developers] XML Parsing w/ DocumentBuilder

2012-03-29 Thread Bozzified

Hello everyone.

I am trying to get a hang of XML parsing and can't get this to show me the 
right elements as I'm fairly new to Android/Java dev. Would appreciate 
some guidance.

I've build a class that gets the custom xml url and needs to parse it and 
fill ArrayList with values. After trying several versions I can't wrap my 
head around parsing nodes and extracting element values.

This is what I have

  DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.*newInstance*();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = builder.parse(feedURL);

   // get xml document root element
Element root = doc.getDocumentElement();

   // get node list of all elements with tag name item
NodeList items = root.getElementsByTagName(item);

 ArrayListString[] photoSet = *new* ArrayListString[]();

*for* (*int* i = 0; i  items.getLength(); i++) {

Node itemNode = items.item(i);

NodeList itemChildNodes = itemNode.getChildNodes();

Node itemChildNode = itemChildNodes.item(2);

String value = itemChildNode.getNodeValue();

 Log.*d*(ITEM ELEMENT VALUE, Node value for item[+i+] 
- +value);

}

here's what the XML looks like:

gallery
item photoid509/photoid url
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/320622_10150298438271744_326149431743_8468654_1542995730_n.jpg

category/category dateupdated2012-01-24 23:31:58/dateupdated 
dateupdated2Wed Jan 25 07:31:58 GMT-0800 2012/dateupdated2

/item

item photoid508/photoid url
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/308152_10150298438346744_326149431743_8468655_312468158_n.jpg
/url titleFoster The People Philly/title description/description

dateupdated2Wed Jan 25 07:31:44 GMT-0800 2012/dateupdated2/item
/gallery

So now why I put itemChildNodes.item(2) is basically because I thought that 
would give me back 3rd subchild element of that node which is in this case 
title tag under item node

Would someone be kind enough to educate me on why this is not working and 
what's the best way to do this. The reason I'm not using SAX is because 
these XML files will be fairly small so I went with DocumentBuilder and 
also I wanted to learn both ways.


Many thanks good people.

 Hi Android developers,

 I have done that the porting of HID profile onto Android 2.3 as the host.

 However, my question is that it seems very lack of information about to
 make Android device as the client side.

 For example, simulate the Android device can work as the KB/mouse and
 connect it to the other Android device through Bluetooth.

 I know that Cyanogenmod allows us to do it and yes, I have a sample code
 and it works perfectly.

 Unfortunately, when I install the code onto my generic Android 2.3, the
 Bluetooth can be connected but drop right after being connected.

 Does anyone know why this happened on Android 2.3?

 Any clue will be highly appreciated.

[android-developers] How do I view Android application specific cache?

2012-03-29 Thread Karim Varela

 

Is there any way to dynamically view the application specific cache in 
Android? I'm saving images to the cache (/data/data/my_app_package/cache) 
and I'm 99% sure they're saving there, but not sure how long they're 
staying around.

When I look in the cache using the DDMS File Explorer within Eclipse, it's 
always empty. I've also tried examining the appropriate cache dir in ADB 
and again it's always empty.

Any suggestions?

Re: [android-developers] Stop listview from updating previous items and only update current items


 I had a problem with designing chat custom listview but when i update list
 when user send or receive message it update all previous rows with the name
 of new sender/receiver and seems like one person send/receive all messages!!


That code doesn't make a lot of sense...  We don't know what MarkChat is,
for one.  We don't really know how the flag works as well.

But I can tell you that you have a problem with your ViewHolder pattern.
Your title and body variables should be members of the ViewHolder class,
not member variables of your adapter class.  I don't know why you would
really need titleOdd and bodyOdd either...

Also, you have to remember that when a listview updates itself, it will
update every view that it is currently displaying on the screen, at the
very least.  There is nothing you can do to change that.  That means that
getView() will be called one time for each item currently on the screen

[android-developers] Re: Stop listview from updating previous items and only update current items

2012-03-29 Thread Nadeem Hasan

The MarkChat.Name.get() returns the same value for all your list items. 
That is causing the name to be the same for all items. It should return the 
name based on the position of the item in the adapter.

Also, as Justin noted, your ViewHolder usage seems to be incorrect. Try 
something like below:

*if* (convertView == null) {
h = new ViewHolder();
v = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.oddbubble, null);
h.title = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.BuddyTitle);
h.body = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.BuddyMessage);
v.setTag(h);
} *else* {
h = convertView.getTag();
}
h.body.setText(groupsMessage.get(position));
h.title.setText(MarkChat.Name.get(position));

No, it doesn't.  It implies (rather strongly) that I thought, based on

 Java doesn't let you cast across type hierarchies. Thus, you cannot cast

Nor did I try (nor WOULD I try to do something stupid like that).  Go

Camera.Size stuff---so far, only one, and that WAS a String[].  Where,
from THAT, do you get that I'm assuming I can just cast (and thus
magically translate) Camera.Size to String[]?  Answer: you don't.

There...see, I said it again.  I hadn't gotten being ListString and

   You could try this:

Yes...I know.  But the above assumes (or at least, appears to assume)
that I'm handing one huge list of settings to the spinner, whereas I'm
planning to reuse one spinner with multiple sets of data.  I haven't
tried that yet, and if it doesn't work, that'll be just another lesson
learned for me.  So I was just clarifying what I had in mind.

   But if you do that, you won't be able to refer to objects in the

Did I say ANYTHING about switching based on variable types?  No.  I was

that the spinner's current data set is White Balance settings.
Understand now?  :-)

Re: [android-developers] Re: Stop listview from updating previous items and only update current items


 The MarkChat.Name.get() returns the same value for all your list items.


That's what I thought at first as well... But I think this list view
represents a chat between two people... And so, depending on the item in
the list, the OP only wants to return one of two names... I may be wrong,
but that is what I inferred from these two lines:

title.setText(MarkChat.Name.get(0));
 titleOdd.setText(MarkChat.Name.get(1));

Yes, having GPS going on a lot will be bad for your battery..., you
have to live with it.

You can try getting the location from a passive provider, but that's
somewhat spotty, of course..., If you want to use GPS, you have to be
willing to pay the price..

2012-03-29 Thread Nadeem Hasan

Justin,

You are right. In that case, I think the culprit is the flag. It is 
supposed to be true for incoming and false for outgoing. But, it remains 
static while listview is building its items. I think this flag should be in 
the adapter along with message.

 No, it doesn't.  It implies (rather strongly) that I thought, based on

You might want to cool your attitude down a notch, there, buddy.
 

  Java doesn't let you cast across type hierarchies. Thus, you cannot cast 
  'Camera.Size' to 'String', nor can you cast 'Camera.Size[]' to 
 'String[]'.

 Nor did I try (nor WOULD I try to do something stupid like that).  Go
 back and READ my original post.  I said that I hadn't even GOTTEN to any
 Camera.Size stuff---so far, only one, and that WAS a String[].  Where,
 from THAT, do you get that I'm assuming I can just cast (and thus
 magically translate) Camera.Size to String[]?  Answer: you don't.


Since you provided woefully incomplete information. we have to guess. You 
shouldn't be shouting at me for that. You never said anyhthing about 
casting a 'String[]' because you didn't say what type 'bar' is. So get off 
your bloody high horse, bubba.

Since you didn't tell us at all yet, what is the type of 'bar'?
 

  You might find the Java tutorials informative.

 Again, read what I posted.  How many Java books did I go through?  I lost
 count.


Zero.

Or you wouldn't have made the mistake you did, Mr. Attitude.
 

   ListString) to an array of strings (String[]).  I hadn't gotten
   as far as the other settings types yet---just preparing for them
   when I get to them.

 There...see, I said it again.  I hadn't gotten being ListString and
 String[].  Read what you're replying to next time.  :-)


Boy, you love to be rude, don't you?

Do you think a smiley makes your comment less obnoxious?

I ask again, what was the type of 'bar'?

You cop all this attitude, bu you leave out the vital datum.
 

You could try this:

for (Camera.Size size : cameraSizeList) {
stringArray.add(size.toString());
}

   ... etcI was hoping for a direct conversio for each List to each
   respective array, but I'm starting to think that might not be ideal,
   after all.

 And just in case that was misunderstood, I was saying that I liked his
 idea, and that I thought it would work for me.

Or you could combine the arrays into one Object[] array. The adapter
would then call toString on each Object inside the array.
  
   Again, multiple arrays, not one.
  
  Again, he's just making suggestions. Again.

 Yes...I know.  But the above assumes (or at least, appears to assume)
 that I'm handing one huge list of settings to the spinner, whereas I'm
 planning to reuse one spinner with multiple sets of data.  I haven't
 tried that yet, and if it doesn't work, that'll be just another lesson
 learned for me.  So I was just clarifying what I had in mind.

But if you do that, you won't be able to refer to objects in the
array and know their types (which may be useful), unless you used
instanceof.
  
   I've already got that covered.  :-)   A simple switch() in 
 onItemClicked
   will determine which type of settings are in effect, and respond
   accordingly.
  
  Switching on types is an antipattern in O-O programming. Polymorphism, 
 will 
  do that switch for you.

 Did I say ANYTHING about switching based on variable types?  No.  I was


Yes, you said and quoted again, A simple switch() in onItemClicked will

What kind of type did you mean?
 

 saying that I would use the switch to take actions based on what the DATA
 was.  In other words, if spinner item #2 is Incandescent then I know
 that the spinner's current data set is White Balance settings.
 Understand now?  :-)


I understand that you are obnoxious. Smiley faces don't reduce your 
rudeness, Flame Boy.

 

   Either way, I can use the example you showed above, and I think that'll
   work for me.
  
  The wrapper approach is one way but I normally use the simple array-copy 
  technique. Why are you so afraid of that loop?

 You mean the loop that, in the quoted text that you just responded to, I
 I said I liked the loop idea, and implied that I would probably just use
 it?  H?  Read *what I wrote*.  If you're trying to read my MIND,
 instead, you're doing an absolutely miserable job of it.  Even my CATS
 do better than that (actually, they do really well at it).   :-)

[android-developers] item tag requires a 'drawable' attribute

2012-03-29 Thread Pinheiro

I have this simple XML in the drawable folder:

selector xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
item android:drawable=@drawable/dark_pressed
android:state_pressed=true /
item android:drawable=@drawable/dark_focused
android:state_focused=true
android:state_enabled=true
android:state_window_focused=true /
item android:drawable=@drawable/dark /
/selector

And I'm getting the error in Eclipse:
Binary XML file line #2: item tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or
child tag defining a drawable

Anyone knows what the problem is? I've tried to clean the project and
restarting Eclipse but nothing worked.

Thanks in advance!

These are fairly basic questions, and are all answered at the SDK website.

You then have to set an appropriate API level for your app, to make
sure you're not including things you don't want, etc..,

No aplogies needed - you were quite clear indeed.

In fact, I need to apologize for calling obj.toString() a typecast in my

Re: [android-developers] Re: Stop listview from updating previous items and only update current items

Note that there are two layouts being used here:

R.layout.evenbubble
R.layout.oddbubble

Without overriding getViewTypeCount / getItemViewType in the adapter and
returning the right item type...

.. the list view will mix up those two layouts when recycling, which would
appear as a list of send bubbles or a list of receive bubbles.

The view type presumably should be based on flag, which in turn, as was
already noted, presumably should depend on the item's position, and a data
structure lookup to determine if it's a send bubble or a receive bubble.
