[android-developers] android.support.v4.view.BetterViewPager
I found the class BetterViewPager (under the support library) by coincidence when Android Studio prompts the class when I was about to use ViewPager in my XML. I'm looking for API documentation of the class, or perhaps other fellow developers can direct me to relevant resources that explain improvements of BetterViewPager over ViewPager.

[android-developers] Polytonic (Ancient) Greek / System Fonts / Diacritics
Hello, I hope that this is the correct place to ask for help, respectively i am asking for ideas regarding the developement of an app to solve following severe problem: The standard system font of Android does not support Polytonic Greek / Diacritics. As far as i understand the problem this is related to the lack of UTF-8 support of Android font. Since diacritics are of crucial importance to everyone concerned with ancient greek, *Android *devices are de facto *useless *for those. Obviously there are apps that alleviate the change of system fonts; unfortunately not compatible to some devices. Now, how should one approach that problem? More information on that Problemhttp://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=26037 (Google Code) I would like to emphasise that i am really suprised by the fact, that Android is not able to cope with ancient greek :-) There definitely is need for action! Let me assure: This problem is not only near my heart, but everyone's dealing with Classics.

[android-developers] Phonegap Email Problem - Android 4.0 ICS Bug
I apologize in advance if this has been asked before, but I absolutely
cannot find a solution. I have a simple Android app (using HTML/Javascript
and phonegap) which offers an email option that sends data from the app via
mailto (with parameters) and window.open. This worked fine until my users
started updating to 4.0.
var mailto_link = 'mailto:?subject=' + subject + 'body=' + body_message;
win = window.open(mailto_link, 'emailWindow');
Now that Android no longer supports this, I need to use webintents to send
the email. The current code using Phonegap 1.1.0 and webintents does not
work for me. I have tried several different versions of phonegap/cordova
including cordova 2.1.0. I have followed examples by Boris Smus...
var extras = {};
extras[WebIntent.EXTRA_SUBJECT] = subject;
extras[WebIntent.EXTRA_TEXT] = body_message;
extras[WebIntent.EXTRA_EMAIL] = 'some...@comcast.net';
window.plugins.webintent.startActivity({
action: WebIntent.ACTION_SEND,
type: 'text/plain',
extras: extras
},
function() {},
function() {
alert('Failed to send email via Android Intent');
}
);
The new code keeps throwing the error Failed to send email via Android
Intent. I have made sure my files are importing webintent.js as well as
phonegap/cordova.js
I need to get this working, so my question is - How can I get the details
on what is actually causing the error?
Also, I feel that my AndroidManifest.xml may be causing the issue so here
is a portion of my file where my intent filters are defined...
application android:icon=@drawable/icon
android:label=@string/app_name
activity android:name=com.android.SCAT2.SCAT2
android:label=@string/app_name
android:configChanges=orientation|keyboardHidden
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filter
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.SEND /
category android:name=android.intent.category.DEFAULT /
data android:mimeType=text/plain /
/intent-filter
/activity
/application
Any help is greatly appreciated and if I need to provide any additional
details, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

[android-developers] Connecting to USB-Serial Converter in Android
I am attempting to connect to a serial device from a Android tablet, via USB-Serial Converter. In order to interface with this particular serial device, a linux library must be used as an interface. This library takes an integer as an argument, and tries to connect to the device at the following location : /dev/ttySx, where x is the arguement. If 2 is provided to the library, it will look for the device at /dev/ttyS2. Very simple. When I connect the device to Ubuntu, there's is one simple extra step for this device to work with the USB-Serial convert. The converter is exposed at the location /dev/ttyUSB1. I just need to create a simple soft-link with the serial port pattern (etc ln -s /dev/ttyUSV1 /dev/ttyS99). It works perfectly. Now the problem arises for Android. The converter is seen at /dev/bus/usb/01/01. I never seen this convention in other project. The question is how can I direct the I/O from /dev/ttySX to /dev/bus/usb/01/01 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

A rather inelegant solution might be to handle onPageSelected(), and then put the previous page (you'd have to track it manually) back - but I doubt that would look very good. A possible alternative, though little better, might be to handle onTouch() and at the times when they are not allowed to swipe, do nothing and return true to 'eat' the event and prevent the system from acting on it - but that would stop *any* touch event on the pager (unless you could isolate the correct action, but that didn't seem to have anything useful either). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Clarification on orientation angles (azimuth, pitch, roll)?
Hi, I think need some clarification on these orientation angles. Say my android phone is lying flat on the table, with the top pointing exactly to magnetic north, which, as far as I have understood, corresponds to 0 degrees azimuth (clockwise rotation round Z axis pointing out of the screen), 0 degrees roll (rotation around Y axis pointing out of the top of the device) and 0 degrees pitch (counterclockwise rotation around X axis pointing out of the left side of the device). Now I want to change its orientation, so that it, after I have turned it, its orientation corresponds to A degrees azimuth, R degrees roll and P degrees of pitch. In /which order/ do I have to turn? I tried the order azimuth, pitch, roll and got some crazy results. I also saw there is another coordinate system with the z and x axis inversed (at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/SensorManager.html at getOrientation). Do I have to use this one? Please don't point me to the getRotationMatrix-methods, as I want to really understand what's going on (which I think is a little obscured here). In which order are the rotations performed to get this matrix? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Is it impossible to move and merge text on an image
I forgot to say i need to save the image with the added text, like merge into a new image. I guess that complicates things. Im investigating and can see that the Canvas class has the drawText method. drawText will write the text solid on the image. So i guess using Canvas is the way to go. @Miguel Morales thanks and sorry i forgot to say the text and image must be merged together and two ImageView cannot do that i think. @ThreKing Thanks for taking your time.

Well, simply do the saving when the user is finished moving the text or using the feature compose the image. The bitmap canvas supports basic things like drawing text. This doesn't complicate things. yea you right i think, after playing around with this sample for 30 min http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=11603 Can replace one of the balls with text. The question is how to input the text. once the text is Inputed it can be moved but howto let user input it.

That's quite interesting thanks TreKing. That is one approach but dont think it will work for me.

Google has Limitations in that C2DM about Google limits the number of messages a sender sends in aggregate. Also possible lagging. My initial naive thought was that all those 200 phones could have an app installed that make a connection to me PC server and keep that connection alive. I'm searching for a best way to do do this. What would you do? - Services are bad design and a user might think his battery get drained - Activity with AsyncTask is beautiful if android not killing the app Hmmm (not sure there).

I guess if you have a significantly large user base, but I'm assuming that's not the case, or is it? Im planing ahead, trying to learn what it takes to make and app like that Is some lagging or some delay in the delivery of these messages completely unacceptable? yes im playing with the ide since mail or sms is no instant What is so urgent about these messages that they *must* be received instantaneously? That is a powerful features for a mobile app Perhaps give the user a poll interval or an option for manually refreshing the data, if it makes sense for your app. no, that way the phone is never ready to receive . I would rethink what you're trying to accomplish and try to work within the restrictions imposed by mobile devices. your right ofcorce, im new to android but not to Java so the transition is a bit painful You can certainly keep your AsyncTask alive between orientation changes - but only as long as the user keeps your app in focus as the current Activity. Once you get put in the background you're subject to being killed. AsyncTask out the door, Services welcome in. There's really no such thing as keeping a connection alive. Your process can and will be killed at some point, if not by the system then explicitly by the user.

[android-developers] Re: Process and application lifecycles
The first paragraph of http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html#procthread indicates that anytime the FIRST component (activity, contentprovider, service, bcastrcvr) needs to run, a new Linux process is created for the app. If the process is killed, then the components have no place to run, so in my opinion it is not possible to retain the app when its underlying process has been killed. However, the next paragraph of the above document indicates that components of an app can be setup to run on more than one processes. So, theoretically it is possible to arrange an app with M+N components to run on two processes P and Q where P runs M components and Q runs the remaining N components. If P is killed, then the M components will get wiped out, but the other N components still run on the second process Q... nevertheless a process is needed to run these remaining N components.

[android-developers] Re: As application developers are we allowed to access system properties like ro.config.sync?
your user's experience with your application at any time by moving a setting you expected to be there to some other UI. i don't really see what the security issue is with starting background services. Really? You consider an application that obtains permission from the user to enable/disable phone settings such as auto-sync insecure, but a service that once installed by the user may be forgotten about and be running, years later, on their phone and they don't remember it at all, and it can basically do anything the user first gave it permission to do? Again, it seems like your saying Danger! Danger! You shouldn't be able to do X when you also argue that doing Y, Z, and the rest, are totally acceptable. I don't understand how taking away the ability to turn data roaming on/off from our own UIs and Activities makes the phone any more secure unless you plan to make everything impossible for applications to do without going through a Google Android activity. I would also like to close any holes for applications to send data over the network without explicitly requesting it, but am not sure what or when we might do that. That would certainly make things more secure, and I can think of cases where you could apply that, but in general, you'd be ruining the phone. The most attractive thing about Android is that you expect it to be flexible. BSD is a relatively secure computing environment and they don't restrict developers from changing settings. Seriously, you need to leave most of these things open to users to decide, ignoring the well established premise that users do crazy and dangerous things. Our goal should very much be to close holes as we find them, which you already see happening in Cupcake, not just give up and let applications do whatever they want. The problem is that you (and others) see holes where I (and others) do not. I certainly don't consider it a hole for applications, who use the settings write permission, to change settings. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that Vendors do not want to be tied to their system image updates as a deployment mechanism for new and/or updated applications. Where is this mysterious group who decides what's dangerous and what isn't, when it's all technically dangerous to begin with...? If you are coming at the position that security isn't useful because everything an application can do is dangerous, then I'm not sure what kind of useful discussion we can have. :} I don't have a problem with fixing things that need fixing, I'm just having a very hard time understanding how there are these terrifically dangerous areas such as the SDCARD that you seem to think are fine (as evidenced by your posts, barring a new permission set) but it's a security hole to allow users to allow applications to manage their phone settings. Anyway, the security engineers, core technical team, and engineers responsible for their area of the system makes these kinds of decisions. Is there a forum (in the classical sense) where requests and suggestions can be directed explicitly to this group?

Part of that notification is the ability to change some settings when they enter/leave roaming.

[android-developers] A simple question about a particular intent...
I'm stumped simply trying to find out information on the following intent: android.intent.action.SERVICE_STATE Now, looking at the naming schema used, it would suggest, since Android is 'sort of' Java that this would be something found in the intent class (since action is not a child class) and, while there are many intents listed there as constants, this intent is not one of them. Now, there are other intents, such as: android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE This is, shocker, found in the android.net.ConnectivityManager class. Now, that is still not syntactically matching between intent hierarchy and class hierarchy, but at least it's roughly nearby. The only way I found where SERVICE_STATE was defined was by downloading the Android Base source code and searching through it. Bingo, it shows up under internal\telephony\telephonyintents.java. What is going on with that? Shouldn't it be named something more like android.internal.telephony.SERVICE_STATE? Surely, this is an intent that is meant be used as it is the only intent I can find mention of anywhere (newsgroups, web, et cetera) that will notify you of switches in your service state. Are we not supposed to be aware of when a phone goes in/out of roaming (as an example)? If we are, why is this not documented? How do I find out what is bundled with intents like this (for example, how do I know if it is roaming that changed if I catch this in a broadcast receiver? My broadcast receiver won't have the previous state information, so how do I know what it is that has changed?

[android-developers] Photo Viewer Share menu -
I want to be able to handle the intent (which contains an image) which is generated when a user chooses my 'activity' from the Share menu but I want it to happen without displaying a UI after the user chooses my entry on the 'Share' acitivty chooser menu. Is it possible to create an Activity with no UI? Normally I'd use a receiver for this but the 'Share' button only enumerates activities for its chooser, not receivers. Worst case scenario I could have the activity display an acknowledgement and then immediately close but I'd rather have it handle the operation 'invisibly.' Suggestions for solving this?

On Mar 18, 11:16 pm, Dianne Hackborn hack...@android.com wrote: They use queryIntentActivities(), which only returns activities. In the package manager, the four component types are completely disjoint, and there is simply no call you can make that will give you a mix of them. Thanks for the info :). BTW, does this mean that services will tend to only get 'sticky' broadcast intents, intents intended explicitly for them from a given activity or service, and the occasional intent that isn't handle by any activity currently registered for it? Services are just completely different from receivers, which are different from activities. They don't receive any broadcasts at all. They certainly do when you register for them dynamically. Neither do activities. Ibidem Only receivers do. (One exception is that you can dynamically create a BroadcastReceiver and register it at runtime, but in that case it is not the component itself receiving the broadcast.) Presumably this difference only matters when the code in question is not yet running. In other words: - You launch activities with startActivity(). - You send to receivers with sendBroadcast(). - You bind to services with bindService() (and make them run with startService(), but semantically this is not the same at all as starting an activity; we probably should have found a different verb to use here). So - If I have a service that I want to run when certain things happen, just for an example I want it to run when someone clicks 'share' on the photo viewer menu. Presuming that service is not running, putting the proper intent filter in the service's manifest won't make a difference because services are never evaluated for intents, but a running service with a broadcast receiver inside of it would have its broadcast receiver evaluated, correct? I presume that if you want a service started up because of a standard broadcast message your service's package would also contain a broadcast receiver that would actually be what was triggered and it would in turn start the service, yes/no? So, to sum up, unless an intent is sent via broadcast, a running service has no approach to receive intents other than from binds and starts/stops, correct?

That makes it sound complicated. :) startActivity - Activity, startService - Service, sendBroadcast - BroadcastReceiver. Just don't think of Intent as a generic message system where all of them are routed through one common channel. Intent is a primitive data structure with standard semantics for declaring and matching a simple language, which is used in various places to build specific routing facilities. The problem is that this IS the message system for Android. I guess, as usual, a new mindset for solving problems is needed. I think the only thing I've found missing from the framework point of view is that PACkAGE_ADDED doesn't get sent to the newly installed package.

[android-developers] Re: class com.android.camera.UploadService does not exist?
Much appreciated. I'd like to ask you one more question if I could JBQ. I have built all kinds of things with Android now, from simple activities, to OpenGL applications, to out of process servers running in services with inter-process communication and callbacks, et cetera. All of this is great in Android and relatively simple in comparison to doing it in other platforms; however, just trying to build Camera.apk is proving problematic in that I'm probably just taking the wrong approach. Do you have any suggestions (which I'll not hold you to) for building Camera.apk because I, of course, end up needing to reference classes outside of both the SDK and the Camera.git source base (such as com.android.text.format.DateFormat which I found in the base.git repositiory) and not being an expert Eclipse/Java person I simply tried linking in the base framework source folders. That, of course, doesn't work. All of the base code references a different set of resources. Should I be building the base code as its own project, and linking that project to my Camera project's build path? Sorry if this is too far beneath your purview, but I'm struggling to do something I had hoped would be simple - just build Camera.apk without any changes... I've googled on this a bunch but found nothing but vagaries that make it sound like no ones actually doing this right now.

[android-developers] Re: Unable to start service Intent error in Client-Server project
I'm not trying to be argumentative for the sake of being argumentative Dianne, but if that was the case, how could the IPC calls to the remote process be resolved if they are only declared in the manifest for the service project which is in a different *.apk? This would mean that android was accidentally (presumably) bypassing the requirement to declare your exposed service interfaces in your manifest. BTW, I would presume that there is an implementation of the class in the local client's *.apk because otherwise the client would have to use late/explicit binding to the interfaces exposed by the service... This should be true anytime you write a client. The bone of contention appears to be one of two things. Either it should be impossible to start a remote service from a class name or some other local to the client reference, or the operating system should handle starting a remote service from a class name 'properly' so that the main service thread can callback into the client instead of just the service's thread pool being able to. In either case, it would be nice if the documentation about starting services recommended using a global service name for starting remote services, although I would certainly know less about Android if that were the case, lol... Is there a formal specification for the behavior of services in this regard? I certainly don't mean any of my comments to sound critical of Android, it really is fantastic (if given to renaming things that had perfectly valid names before :) ), and VERY easy to use. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Sincerest apologies, I was using the other line to trace behavior when it was created 'incorrect' (although the framework didn't complain.) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] TextView scrolling (in case anyone finds this useful)
This is rough and quick, but after a couple of minutes looking aroudn
I didn't find anything about asking Google to auto-scroll my TextView
(I'm sure there are several ways to do this), so I used this for now.
public void AdjustScroll( TextView in_oTextView )
{
/*
We know how big the control is, we know how big
a line is, we know how many lines there are,
so how much do we have to scroll to keep the latest
data in view?
*/
int l_nLineCount = in_oTextView.getLineCount();
int l_nViewHeight = in_oTextView.getHeight();
int l_nPixelsPerLine = in_oTextView.getLineHeight();
//The difference between view height and total text height
int l_nDifference = ( l_nLineCount * l_nPixelsPerLine ) -
l_nViewHeight;
if( l_nDifference 1 )
{
return;
}
in_oTextView.scrollTo( 0, l_nDifference );
}

[android-developers] Re: Unable to start service Intent error in Client-Server project
Here's the URL: http://www.plugin-factory.com/storage/workspace.zip There are two projects in it: (1)ServiceMonitor - a simple activity that has 3 buttons and a text view. One buttons starts and binds to the service, the other stops and unbinds from the service, the third is a query button that was used to test some functions of the service that were related to checking network status (but that's not important now and I erased that code to keep it clearer.) (2)TestService - an out of process service that exposes two interfaces (there are 3 AIDL files in the project, one for each interface, and another interface that exposes the callback mechanism to interested clients), the first interface allows you to register/ unregister for callbacks, the second is just a test interface to show you can expose multiple interfaces and on a service and bind to the ones you want. That's pretty much it. The ServiceMonitor project imports from the TestService in order to use the interfaces, and the TestService project manifest specifies a global service reference name of TEST_SERVICE and also denotes that the service runs in its own process. Hope this helps :). Hans --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] How to specify the port when programmatically listening for SMS messages?
I can get SMS messages by using the syntax below: IntentFilter l_oSMSIntentFilter = new IntentFilter ( android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED ); in_oContext.registerReceiver( this, l_oSMSIntentFilter ); But what I really need to do is listen on a particular port. It appears you can set it in the manifest like below, but this is a utility class so it doesn't have a manifest: data android:port=8192/ I'm looking at the IntentFilter documentation, but I'm not sure what to use... Does 'port' fall under Data Path? Is it a Category? Can you even add properties like that to a programmatically created IntentFilter (I presume you can)? Also, I am interested in reading the message (as part of a control scheme), will this trigger some sort of notification to the user to decide who/what gets to handle the SMS?

[android-developers] Re: Presumably there's no method to apply permissions to your code during runtime, correct?
Another solution would be to be able to associate a manifest with a class in some manner and importing/using that class would aggregate its manifest into your own. Potentially for only a subset of a current manifest's features... Hmmm... It just seems silly that if someone wants to use my Utility class that includes SMS read/write capabilities, they have to add: uses-permission android:name=android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS / to their project's manifest. Heck, a new version of a class can therefore break currently compiling code (although you can of course stipulate that the permissions requirements have changed, but again, that puts the onus on the person using your code when I'd rather do the work for them.)

[android-developers] RemoteCallbackList register called on one thread, broadcast initiated on another...
Hi everyone, I'm an experienced C++/Java dev who has been truly enjoying that past two days of getting neck deep into the Android SDK. I can foresee a lot of sleepless nights ahead :). Now, being arrogant due to experience (lol) I basically wrote a hello world Activity, got it to work and promptly decided to write an out of process service with accompanying client for project #2. Android is so well thought out (if not exactly documented although that's an 'over time' issue inmho) that I had basically implented everything but callbacks into the client before realizing (and feeling like a total idiot) that there's a very nice example called RemoteService (lol @ me - again...) Basically, this validated everything I'd been doing, although I did notice that because my client is in its own project and namespace and my service is in another project and namespace (but the same Eclipse workspace) that I had to have the service entry in my service's manifest AND my client's manifest (that one took me a while to figure out) in order to bind on the service. Anyhow, everything's great, I am starting to love on Android (figuratively) but I've run into BRITISH-NESSa bit of a sticky wicket, eh, wot?/BRITISH-NESS. When my client Activity binds on my service (which is running in its own process) and calls the equivalent of 'registerCallback', the interface is added perfectly to the RemoteCallbackList object and I can immediately (right on the next line of code) use the interface to send a notification to the client. Now, my problem is that when my main service thread tries to pull the interface out of the RemoteCallbackList via the broadcast methods, the RemoteCallbackList is always 'empty' - it returns 0 from beginBroadcast. After double checking ensure that I AM actually adding it to the list (because I've been a collossal idiot before) and that I am getting success back from 'register', I immediately think it's a threading issue, so: I add logging code to the service in key places to log what the thread id is repeatedly, and I think uh, I think I need to use a handler of some sort to make the call back in the thread that handled the registration and to double check I call beginBroadcast right after 'register' and find that it always returns back the correct number of callback interfaces. So it VERY much appears to be a threading issue (to me) so now I'm a bit stuck - I've written a handler so that my main service thread can request the correct thread to actually call 'beginBroadcast' and then thought 'how is it going to know what thread that is...?' and instead am now thinking I need to pass, via a handler or something, the incoming interface from the thread that runs when the client calls the equivalent of 'registerCallback' to my main service thread. What part of the proper paradigm am I missing? BTW, as an example of the thread IDs, my main service thread is #1, the runnable I use for tasks in the main service thread shows an ID of #1, the message handler I was thinking I could use, shows an ID of #1, but the thread ID I get in my code in the service that runs when the user registers their callback is #7. If I plan to notify clients when the service notices something it thinks they need to know, do I need to notify (somehow) the clients via the thread with ID #7 or do I need to pass the interface I get when the user registers their callback from thread #7 to thread #1 and call 'register' on the RemoteCallbackList from thread #1? Sorry for the verbosity but I figured more is better than less. Again, everything works great except this one little part. :) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Unable to start service Intent error in Client-Server project
When I built my client/service code I had two projects, one for the client (the Activity) and a different project for my Service. Now, I spent about 3 hours struggling until I realized that for some reason (probably because I was using an out of process service) I needed to not only declare my service in the service project's manifest BUT ALSO in the client project's manifest in exactly the same manner (without the interface portions so just something like service blah blah blah process:remote/), then bingo, my client stopped saying not found. If you're using a multi-project approach (as I presume anyone would if they plan to have a re-usable service), make sure you've got service/ declared in all your client application's manifests. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: RemoteCallbackList register called on one thread, broadcast initiated on another...
I'm sorry for not understanding, but it sounds like you're describing how to get thread pool requests executed in the main thread, but that's not the problem I'm describing (unless I've described it poorly [if so, sorry...]) My problem is that as client Activities pass my service their callback interfaces, the service's thread pool handles the interface code in my service and the thread pool's thread calls RemoteCallbackList.register. When my service wants to send a message to the registered client applications it tries to use the interfaces which are stored in the RemoteCallbackList object but (and here is the problem) there are no registered callbacks in the object. RemoteCallbackList.beginBroadcast() returns 0 all the time, no matter how many client's successfully bind to my service and register themselves for callbacks. Now, I put a simple bit of debug code to dump out how many clients are registered each time the Service interface code is called and the number there is exactly as I expect. When the first one connects, the Log.i output shows 1 client connected, when another Activity calls to register its callback with my service, the service code reports 2 clients connected, et cetera. So, my problem is that when the service's threadpool makes use of my service's RemoteCallbackList object, everything is as expected, there are several clients registered and their interfaces work, BUT, when my service's main thread wants to notify the clients of some even, and it tries to use the RemoteCallbackList object, it is empty when the thread pool thread reports that it is NOT empty. Thanks for looking at this for me. Once I get this licked, I plan to write up a very nice bit on how easy (I won't mention this part! LOL) getting into Android is and include my service work.

[android-developers] Re: Unable to start service Intent error in Client-Server project
It didn't work. I commented out the service declaration in my
Activity's manifest:
service android:name=com.android.TestService.TestService/
And modified my service's manifest to include 'exported' like this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
package=com.android.TestService
android:versionCode=1
android:versionName=1.0.0
application android:icon=@drawable/icon android:label=@string/
app_name
service android:name=.TestService android:exported=true
android:process=:remote
intent-filter
!-- These are the interfaces supported by the
service, which you
can bind to. --
action
android:name=com.android.TestService.ITestService1/
action
android:name=com.android.TestService.ITestService2/
/intent-filter
/service
/application
/manifest
And during runtime I got the old problem I had before adding the
service line to my client's manifest:
02-12 14:16:23.531: WARN/ActivityManager(50): Unable to start service
Intent { comp={com.android.servicemonitor/
com.android.TestService.TestService} }: not found
I'm sure I'm just doing something totally noobishly dumb, but my dumb
(lol) way I've got it working 99% of the way, now if I can just get
the main service thread to actually find the callbacks that I know are
in the RemoteCallbackList (but that's for another thread :)) - thanks
for putting up with me Dianne.

Um. This is the package your service is in:

And yet you are trying to start a service in the other package:

Intent {

That's what the error is, I'm simply calling start service like this:
if( null == startService( new Intent( this, TestService.class ) ) )
{
if( null != in_oOutput )
{
in_oOutput.append( \nstartService returned 'null' );

My client class has imported TestService via:
import com.android.TestService.*;
So, I'm wondering why, unless I declare the service in the client's
manifest as I explained before (and change absolutely nothing else)
does it work just fine, but without the service line in the client
manifest it is trying, for some reason, to find it in the wrong place.
When it works, the activity manager reports in the log:
02-12 15:08:43.541: INFO/ActivityManager(50): Start proc
com.android.servicemonitor:remote for service
com.android.servicemonitor/com.android.TestService.TestService:

So it would seem that com.android.servicemonitor/
com.android.TestService.TestService is perfectly fine.

[android-developers] Re: RemoteCallbackList register called on one thread, broadcast initiated on another...
The only thing different, as far as I can tell, between my approach, and the sample's is that the client and service are in the same project and share the same manifest, and in my service's manifest I don't use something like: action android:name=com.example.android.apis.app.REMOTE_SERVICE / So, in the sample, the clients use this 'name' for the service to start/bind to it. I use the class name as is used in other service examples. I wonder if, because the service is remote, it makes a difference using a specified name...

[android-developers] Re: Unable to start service Intent error in Client-Server project
It turns out that you can avoid using the service reference in your client manifest if you declare what I presume is a global name in your service's manifest and simply refer to this name in your client code. This is what I added to my service's manifest: action android:name=com.android.TestService.TEST_SERVICE / Then I could delete the service/ entry in my client's manifest. I still can't get my service to trigger callbacks on the service's main UI thread. Weirdly enough, I have found that the thread pool thread ID will differ, on occasion (of course) when a client calls in to register their callback, but each of the thread pool's thread can broadcast on the RemoteCallbackList's items while the main thread cannot...

[android-developers] Re: RemoteCallbackList register called on one thread, broadcast initiated on another...
Wow, weirdness... Starting the remote service, whose code is in another project than the client's, via a global name resolved the thread issue. So, to sum up: IF you keep your service code in its own project If you don't declare a name like this: action android:name=com.android.TestService.TEST_SERVICE / in your service's manifest you'll be unable to start the service without adding a service entry to your client's manifest (service/), which is a weird way to solve the problem but for some reason results in instantiating the process remotely (if designated as being a remote process.) You can bind on this service, you can call methods on this service, you can register a callback on this service (that's running in another process) BUT you can't receive callbacks from the service's main thread, only from its threadpool. LOL. Sigh. One unusual thing down, billions to go. Thanks for the pointers Dianne :).

[android-developers] Re: RemoteCallbackList register called on one thread, broadcast initiated on another...
Unless there are some serious bugs in the Log class (which I doubt) it wasn't running two instances of the service because I logged every aspect of the service and the client's life cycles and included thread IDs and process IDs when doing so. I did this for all the variations I used to try and solve the problem. There was only ever one instance of the server. This instance was running in its own process. The client was running in its own process. The client could start/stop the service just fine. The clients could bind the service just fine (for multiple interfaces as well.) The clients could register and unregister their callbacks just fine. The service could call the clients on their callback interfaces just fine IF the service's threadpool was making the calls. The service could NOT call the clients on their callback interfaces IF the service's main thread or message handler was making the calls. All of this was logged for analysis. As I posted in both threads, removing the service/ entry in the clients' manifests and simply adding a name action (in this case TEST_SERVICE) and changing the clients' methods for starting/ stopping the service to use an Intent created via the TEST_SERVICE allowed all the same abilities except you COULD call the clients' on their callback interfaces from the service's main thread and/or message handler. It is probably very easy to reproduce. Take the REMOTE_SERVICE name out of the Remote Service section of the manifest for the API samples and add a service/ entry for RemoteService in the sections of the manifest for the remote binding/controlling activities.
