[android-developers] How to make sure an app is eligible to use REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS permission?
Our app is a location app that will run in background and report user’s locations to server so that his members can track them. In Android 6, because of the Automatic Battery Optimisation (Doze mode), our app couldn’t report user’s location to server because the Data Connection was disconnected. We found out that an app can actually make use of the permission REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS so that it can be whitelisted for battery optimisation without user’s interaction. However, we are not sure if we are allowed to use that permission because there’s no clear definition on what kind of app can use it, and in developer forum, we read some developers posting that their apps got removed from Play Store because Google thinks their app are not eligible to use the permission. We would like to seek your advise, that how can we make sure we are allowed to use this permission?

[android-developers] Can Android support NTFS-3G file system?
Dear all, I tried to make Android to support NTFS file system. First, I modified menuconfig in kernel, like File systems --- * FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems --- [*] NTFS write support So, I can mount the sdcard of NTFS but it can't be written. After google, I found NTFS-3G should support read/write NTFS. NTFS-3G can be compiler directly on linux distribution, like # ./configure # make # make install The last step will copy a lot of head files, scripts into relative folders. I want to put NTFS-3G to arm base Android. So I used arm-2009q3 toolchain to compiler source codes completely. Now I got a big problem. I can't type # make install command in Android system. Because the install process will create several new folders, like /usr/ local/include/ntfs-3g/bitmap.h In the Android system, these folders can't be created. How can I put NTFS-3G binary files into Android? Have anyone implement NTFS-3G on Android? Or give me some suggestions? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] WebView email support
Hi, Can anyone tell me if there was a change from 1.6 to 2.0 in the support for email in a WebView. In android 1.6 I used to be able to mouse click on a web page email link (WebView) and it would activate the email activity and take that email address and drop it into a email module. In android 2.0 it just returns Unsupported action - that action is not currently supported message. How can I change this so when I click on the email address, on a web page, it takes me to email with the address I clicked on placed in the to: box?

[android-developers] Re: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY]
I could be wrong here but I think there is something that should be pointed out about the added libraries situation. I also had this problem: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY] and the threads in this email assisted in solving the problem. The situation I want to point out is that when building a standard java application in eclipse we include the libraries necessary for the application to run. They in turn are added to the class path and/or added to the jar file as part of the application. It seems that the situation in android is slightly different. The added libraries are not added to the .apk file but included in the environment, i.e., in the AVD and the developer needs to construct/build it. My question: Does this mean that any and every application that needs a library like maps.jar file does not need to duplicate it in their environment? If one application specifies a need for the maps.jar, other application will have maps.jar available to them? Where are the specification for how libraries and resources are shared out of the sandbox? Thank you for any help, Lawrence On Sep 4, 9:21 am, Marco Schmitz netzprofi.ma...@googlemail.com wrote: maybe its just that simple: choose eclipse to export the library for you. it can be found there where you can add exernal jars and stuff... greetings darolla --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Hi Andrew,
Not only lack # symbole but also lack parameter type.
So need to modified it to be following:
* further and longer, when used with {...@link #setFinalX(int)} or
{...@link #setFinalY(int)}.
Following is the function definction of setFinalX in Scroller.java:
public void setFinalX(int newX) {
}

[android-developers] Re: android system make. error 45
This problem is caused by not only lack # symbol but alos lack the
parameter data type.
So Scroller.java, line 365 should be modified to be following:
---
* further and longer, when used with {...@link #setFinalX(int)} or
{...@link #setFinalY(int)
---
Following is setFinalX function definition in Scroller.java:
---
public void setFinalX(int newX) {
mFinalX = newX;
mDeltaX = mFinalX - mStartX;
mFinished = false;
}

Wow. This was frustrating. I was having the exact same problem. I
am a nube to the Java and eclipse stuff and on top of that I had to
get Ubuntu 9.04 for AMD 64 Dual Core running.
Anyway, the Error 45 is generated in the build/coreidroiddocs.mk make
file if javadocs command fails. The error generating line is:
|| (rm -rf $(PRIVATE_OUT_DIR) $(PRIVATE_SRC_LIST_FILE); exit 45)
This appears twice: once for droiddocs and once for javadocs - don't
ask me what the difference is. This file hides all the details from
us so debugging requires an expert. I removed the exit 45 and enabled
some extra output (like removing the -quiet option from the javadocs
command and removing the $(hide) . Eventually I got to an actual
error description - cannot resolve {...@link #setFinalX()} and { c...@link
setFinalY()} links in this comment segment in (android root)/

*/
As I said, I am a nube. I would not have expected a comment field to
generate errors. Apparently the javadocs command scours the code
files for specially formatted comment fields to automatically generate
documentation that someone finds useful. So even if the code
compiles, the special comment fields can crash the javadocs function.
I removed the @link phrased from this file, and viola the make file
could progress. Eventually I ran into more errors that I was unable
to debug, so far, but I was eventually able to complete the make
process.
While debugging, I was using make docs to isolate the problem. In
this mode, at least, several javadocs are generated, each getting a
new folder in (android root)/out/target/comman/docs and once
completed the empty file *-timestamp is created in the same
directory.
The offline-sdk-timestamp should be generated when the offline-sdk
documents have been successfully generated. The -offline-sdk-
timestamp is used to signal make that these documents have already
been generated. Since these documentation files should not be
essential (for now, at least) you should be able to get around the
problem by created the *-timestamp file with:
touch (android root)/out/target/common/docs/offline-sdk-timestamp
specifying the appropriate (android root) directory and the timestamp
file given in the error 45 decsription
This should let you finish the build, or a least progress beyound the
javadoc portion.

[android-developers] Re: TabHost and New Activities
Hi all,
same problem here..
I've been trying to debug this problem all day long and can't seem to
find the breakthrough. I'm using tabhosts to create tabs on the main
screen, then I try to put list inside the other tab.To achieve that,
I'm using setContent(Intent e ) methods.. hoping that the list will be
contained on the tab.
Here's my errorr I'm getting: Did you forget to call 'public void setup
(LocalActivityManager activityGroup)'?
But as you see on the codes below, I already call tabs.setup();
So here's the structure of my program:
public class myHome extends TabActivity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle home) {
super.onCreate(home);
// call the home screen
try {
setContentView(R.layout.home);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(ERROR0001, e.getMessage());
// TODO: handle exception
}
// do the actual work here...
// manage tab
try {
final TabHost tabs = (TabHost)
findViewById(R.id.tabhost);
tabs.setup();
TabSpec tab = tabs.newTabSpec(TabOne);
tab.setContent(R.id.home_scroll);
tab.setIndicator(TabOne);
tabs.addTab(tab);
// tabs.setup();
tab = tabs.newTabSpec(TabTwo);
// tab.setContent(R.id.home_scroll_events);
tab.setContent(new Intent(this, myList.class));
tab.setIndicator(TabTwo);
tabs.addTab(tab);
tabs.setCurrentTab(1);
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
Log.e(ERROR0002, e.getMessage());
}
}
It triggers the second exception (ERROR0002) when it reach
tabs.setCurrentTab(1)
Commenting out the setContent(Intent) method and use R.id, everything
works fine... minus the list I wanted...
Here is the error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Did you forget to call 'public void
setup(LocalActivityManager activityGroup)'?
I already add
activity android:name=.myList
android:label=@string/app_name
android:theme=@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar
/activity
on the android manifest file
Here's the content of myList.java
public class myList extends ListActivity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle home_list) {
super.onCreate(home_list);
setContentView(R.layout.two);
String[] items={lorem, ipsum, dolor, sit, amet,
consectetuer, adipiscing, elit, morbi,
vel,
ligula, vitae, arcu, aliquet, mollis,
etiam, vel, erat, placerat, ante,
porttitor, sodales, pellentesque,
augue};
this.setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapterString(this,
R.layout.row, R.id.label,
items));
}
}
where two.xml is simply like this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android
android:orientation=vertical
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent
TextView
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:text=Second tab
/
/LinearLayout
and here is row.xml
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content

/
TextView
android:id=@+id/information
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:textSize=20sp
android:text=life..
/
/LinearLayout
I must have missing something here...can anyone please help?
Thanks.
