[android-developers] How do you guys deal with automated strikes against your developer account?

2016-10-21 Thread Ben McNelly




As you can see below, my app was rejected and my appeal was rejected 
because it contained a screenshot from a game (its a new/tips/updates app 
about gaming)


That   A)  is clearly fair use if a human took two seconds to look at it 
and in context of the app

AndB)  Isn't even from Ubisoft, the game developer, its from ANOTHER 
third party wiki/news site


This has got to be a bot right? How do you guys deal with this, I worked 
months on this app, the name, logo, assets are lovingly hand crafted by me, 
every line of code, and yet some of the test content I put in (was planning 
on doing an alpha, then beta) gets it banned and there is NOTHING I can do?


What are my options!?

[android-developers] APK Upload API giving 500's

2016-08-12 Thread ben

I'm using a python script to try to upload to our app in the Play Store. 
 The script I based my code on can be found here:
https://gist.github.com/mix3d/665f4ab329b4482297a2f425ebba402c

I've created External release builds and tried to upload with the following 
command:
./upload_apk_to_play.py -p com.picmonkey.picmonkey -a 
./Path/To/App-arm7External-release.apk -s ./Path/To/creds.json

I'm able to:
1) Create an edit
2) Upload an APK
3) Update the "alpha" track to point to the version of the apk

It fails when:
4) Commit

The 500 has an empty message, so I'm not sure what I need to do to get past 
this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] Trouble with JDK for Android Studio

2016-08-06 Thread Ben Andreasen

I am currently trying to set up my installation of Android Studio on my
Mac, and to get a handle with everything, I decided to get acquainted with
the IDE by creating a generic, bare-bones project, and looking through the
files. There's an xml file called activity_main.xml that I was trying to
view, which seems to be what allows the developer to create and view the
GUI, but my Android Studio gave me an error that wouldn't render the GUI on
Android Studio and said "Rendering Error: Android N requires the IDE to be
running with Java 8 or later". The error gave me this link:
https://developer.android.com/preview/setup-sdk.html#java8 , which I
followed and did everything accordingly to resolve this problem. I
downloaded Java 8, and configured it the way it outlined, but I'm still
getting said rendering errors. Has anyone else experienced this, and do you
know what I can do so that I can start rendering and playing around with my
GUI? Thanks!

[android-developers] 500 Errors for Refunding Google Play Purchases - Info Needed

2016-04-15 Thread Ben Serviss

Hi,

I'm working on a rails CRM app that supports an Android app that sells 
recurring subscriptions.

In the CRM app, we want to have the option to cancel or refund accounts. 
We're using the Google API Ruby Client to handle these calls 
(https://github.com/google/google-api-ruby-client).

We have implemented the cancel subscription and revoke subscription methods 
via the API and they both work fine, but when we try to send a request to 
the refund subscription endpoint, it always returns a 500 server error. 
There is no helpful description that comes with this error. 

This is what is returned every time:

Caught error Server error
Error - #

We can attempt retries when this fails, but it fails every time. We are 
sending over the same params that the other API methods require - package 
name, product id and purchase token. Is this a problem on Google's end? A 
problem with the API? Something else?

Thanks,
Ben

[android-developers] NFC intent on Android for Work

2016-01-18 Thread Ben Morris

 

I've created a very basic app that has an intent for external NDEF type as 
shown below.







The activity the above is nested in is the main activity for the app and is 
just a vanilla blank activity. 

All works fine on the standard user side however if I side load the app on 
to the Work Profile the intent never reaches the app and the "New tag 
collected" screen is shown. 

The Android documentation states that the Profile administrator can control 
which intents are sent across from the user to the work profile however I 
can find no such settings within the BlackBerry Enterprise Server 12 (our 
MDM) console or the Android for Work console.

Hi there.

I'm using google analytics in my android app.

I see that the dispatch works, and data is updated to server every 5 
minutes, but when I use this settings the gcm push notifications just 
stopped working at all.

The app can send push notifications to other phones , but don't receive any.

Can someone please help me???

[android-developers] How to sync folder with cloud?

2013-06-28 Thread Ben Lee

Hi,
We have a simple note app, it save each note as a single file.
It works locally, doesn't even require network permission.
I am thinking about allowing user to sync their files with their cloud
storage account, like Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, etc.
My first guess is this is a general requirement, so there must be some
working solution(An app, or a library) out there.
I spent several weeks to investigate. Here is what I found.
The nearest app is FolderSync. The user can create folder pair(pair of
local folder and remote folder), then FolderSync will handle all other work
to keep these two folders in sync. However, it don't have an api to allow
third party app(like our note app) to create a folder pair.
Regarding to libraries, some of the cloud provide library for Android.
Those libraries just do downloading/uploading, they don't do folder
syncing. One exception is DropBox, they provide a sync api. This is the
nearest library that I expect.
The reasons stopping me from using dropbox sync api to implement sync for
my app are:
1. I need to change my File related codes. But what I want is JUST a folder
that syncs. So why can't I just do normal File reading/writing and the
library do the work of syncing?
2. What about a user who don't use dropbox?
3. It cache the files in Internal Storage, which is often precious.

After finding out there isn't a ideal solution, I spent several days to
learn how to create one. It turns out to be a non-trivial task.
My target is to create a sync app that allow user and third party apps to
create folder pair, the sync app deals with all other things to make sure
the folder is synced.
It should be able to connect to different cloud providers.
It should be easy to use, both for the end user and for third party
developer.
It should work.

Before I start, I have some questions.
1. Did I missed anything? Is there a good solution out there?
2. If there isn't any solution, why? Is it because it's NOT a general
requirement, or because it's technically impossible?
3. Why companies like dropbox provide sync for Windows and Mac and Linux,
but NOT for Android? Is it technically impossible, or because no one need
to sync in Android?
4. If I create such an app, are you interested in using(invoke via intent)
it?

Thanks in advance!

[android-developers] Need someone capable of writing audio/physics based application

2013-04-02 Thread Ben Costerton

Hello,


I am in need of someone who is confident in writing an audio based 
application involving a lot of physics based variables. These will include 
time, intensity and EQ variables, as well as others, dependant on real-time 
user input.  
The application will be an audio/visual application revolving around 
existing audio/visual content.

Knowledge of head tracking technology will also be a plus as this will most 
likely make a large impact to the application in later prototypes.


I would like to discuss the application with anyone who is interested in 
developing a prototype application. 
Please don't hesitate to get in touch if this is of interest to you.


Thank you for reading,

Ben

I have a Android developer account associated with a checkout account. Is 
it possible to have revenue from a *single app* I release be split at an

I don't think it is but I'm not sure.
This would just be easier for me tax wise, since I don't have an LLC or

 works well). I init Loader in onActivityCreated() as suggested in 
 documentation (http://developer.android.com/guide/components/loaders.html) 
  and after orientation change framework calls twice 
 method LoaderCallbacks.OnLoadFinished but not in initLoader (probably 
 beacause Fragment is not in started state, but in docs there is information 
 that I should be prepared for this 
 (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/LoaderManager.html#initLoader(int,
  
 android.os.Bundle, android.app.LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacksD)  but it 
 never happens) . However if I call iniLoader in Fragment.onResume() 
 everything works as expected. The same issue is described here 
 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/android-developers/aA2vHYxSskU.
  
 It happens using support library as well. Anyone noticed this situation? I 
 wrote very simple application to test this issue, here is sample code:


 //Activity class

 package com.example;

 import android.app.Activity;
 import android.app.LoaderManager;
 import android.os.Bundle;

 public class MyActivity extends Activity
 {
 /**
  * Called when the activity is first created.
  */
 @Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
 {
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.main);

 LoaderManager.enableDebugLogging(true);
 if (savedInstanceState == null)
 {
 getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.container, 
 new TestFrag(), asdf).commit();
 }
 }
 }
 //Fragment class

 package com.example;

 import android.app.Fragment;
 import android.app.LoaderManager;
 import android.content.Loader;
 import android.os.Bundle;
 import android.util.Log;

 public class TestFrag extends Fragment
 {
 @Override
 public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState)
 {
 super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
 LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks c = new 
 LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks()
 {
 @Override
 public Loader onCreateLoader(int id, Bundle args)
 {
 return new LoaderObject(getActivity())
 {
 @Override
 protected void onStartLoading()
 {
 Log.d(TAG, onStartLoading  + this);
 deliverResult(new Object());
 }
 };
 }

 @Override
 public void onLoadFinished(Loader loader, Object data)
 {
  //THIS IS CALLED TWICE
 Log.d(TAG, onLoadFinished  + data);
 }

 @Override
 public void onLoaderReset(Loader loader)
 {
 }
 };
 getLoaderManager().initLoader(100, null, c);

 }

 }

Re: [android-developers] Wrapping horizontal list view?

2012-11-26 Thread Gal Ben-Haim

I'm facing the same problem as this old question.

I want to create an horizontal wrapping (and vertical scrolling) ListView, 
for example:

11 222 
44  66
7 888 9

where each numbers group is a list item.

I found this old answer suggesting using a Gallery widget, but it only 
allows to scroll horizontally.

how can I create such view ?

Re: [android-developers] Wrapping horizontal list view?

2012-11-26 Thread Gal Ben-Haim

I actually don't want to scroll horizontally at all.

I want items to be places from left to right, and warp to the next row when
there's not enough room for the next item. also, this should scroll
vertically.

[android-developers] Animate an icon that is moving through GeoPoints

2012-10-25 Thread shai ben shimol



i am developing an android application which is based on mapview. 

 

(a live real time bus timing application).

im using the overlay class for this purpose (inserting the icons etc'). i 
am recieving an array of GeoPoints, and i need to create an animation in 
which a certain icon is moving through the GeoPoints index route.

 

(in short - an icon that represents a bus which is moving on a certain road 
/ route)

how can this animation be achieved?

[android-developers] how to handle large Parcelable ArrayList in Android ?

2012-10-14 Thread Gal Ben-Haim



I'm developing an Android app that is a client to a JSON webservice API.

I have classes of resource objects (some are nested) and I pass results 
from an IntentService that access the webserive using the Parcelable interface 
for all the resource classes.

the webservice returns arrays or results that can be potentially large 
(because of the nesting, for example, a post object also contains comments 
array, each comment also contains a user object).

currently I'm either inserting the results into a SQlite database or 
displaying them in a ListView. (my relevant methods are accepting 
ArrayListresourceClass as arguments). (some data need to be persistent 
stored and some should not).

since I don't know what size of lists I can handle this way without 
reaching the memory limits, is this a good practice ?

is it a better idea to save the parsed JSON to a local file immediately and 
pass the file path to theResultReceiver, then either insert to database 
from that file or display the data ?

is there a better way to handle this ?

btw - I'm parsing the JSON as a stream with Gson's Reader so there 
shouldn't be memory issues at that stage.

  Here is how I've done it in one of my apps:
 
  @Override
   public void onBackPressed() {
  Toast.makeText(this, Back button disabled, press Reset,
 Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
   }


 This evades the question of whether you should disable the back button.

 To which the answer pretty much always is No.

 Assuming you don't want to piss off your users.

[android-developers] Re: Proper way to communicate service errors to activity

2012-09-23 Thread Gal Ben-Haim

you can use ResultReceiver, create one in your activity and pass it to the 
service then send messages from the Service to the Activity with 
receiver.send()

On Friday, September 21, 2012 5:57:35 PM UTC+3, Cool Frood wrote:

 Hi,

 I'm trying to implement a service that is started by an activity.  When 
 the service starts off, it spawns a worker thread that makes a socket 
 connection.  If the socket connection fails, I want to stop the service. 
  All this is working fine, but I don't have a good handle of how to 
 indicate to the activity that the service could not start successfully, and 
 has, therefore, turned itself off.

 One way to do this is to communicate via a listener that is attached into 
 the service in the onServiceConnected() connection callback.  The problem 
 with this approach is that, depending on when the worker thread notices the 
 error, the onServiceConnected() may or may not have been called, and 
 therefore the listener may or may not have been attached by the time the 
 worker thread decides to shut down the service.

 I was hoping that onServiceDisconnected() would be called, but that is 
 only called in case of an unexpected crash, and isn't really useful when 
 the service and activity exist in the same process.

 My question is, what is the best way to approach something like this?  It 
 seems silly to me that even though the activity and service exist in the 
 same process, the activity cannot figure out the state of the service that 
 easily.  I _can_ use a static state variable within the service, but that 
 still doesn't allow the activity to be notified of the event.

 Thanks!

I'm not sure if you've already considered this, but it could be that
they are not eligible to upgrade. Make sure that you haven't

would strand a large number of users at version 10 because of SDK

Hi Gabriel,

I would like to express I am facing the same issue as you stated below, have 
you 
fixed it yet?

I have found using a sample rate of 8192 works too, although I still get the 
same errors. at least 8192 goes into the buffersize exactly (and is power of 2).

Also I read your other article 
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.android.devel/85692 in which 
you 
said to loop to find the best solution for your device and look at the output 
(if 0 then good). could you clear up how you did this?

Please let me know if you have had any joy with this class.

Thanks for your time,

Ben

 The idea here is that the 2 TextViews (which each could have different

 just as you would expect in a ListView.

 I am getting the following Lint warning: This LinearLayout layout or
 its FrameLayout parent is useless.


I've got several similar layouts but the warning says (emphasis mine)
This LinearLayout or its FrameLayout parent *may* be useless.  I
found that all of the cases in my app where the warnings said that it
is useless were legitimate. Many of those may be useless cases
were situations where I used layout_gravity=center, like you. I
suppose there may be a more optimal layout, but in my case it isn't
worth the effort to find it.

[android-developers] Sudden rash of license check failures in LVL. Anyone else?

2011-11-01 Thread Ben H

i have an app in the android market that uses the LVL. it's bone stock
- not modified from the original source. yeah yeah, you're supposed to
alter it, but the LVL cracking apps out there are so good now that
it's pointless to try to fool them, IMO. not pointless, just not worth
the effort, IMO. i'm just trying to keep honest people honest.

anyway, over the past few days, i'm suddenly getting a rash of
complaints from users that the license check is failing in my app. one
user sent me some logcat output that included this:

11-01 12:15:46.192 I/LicenseChecker( 1102): Check timed out.

nothing has changed in my app. i'm wondering if there's something
wrong with the license servers. is anyone else experiencing this
problem?

 I had one user report a problem, but then again, in my app I don't
 fail the license check if unless it is not successful for long periods
 of time (days).

that's interesting. so that means that the license check was failing
for many days before your app finally notified the user?

 If yes How?

yes, you can. create an instance of org.apache.http.cookie.Cookie, and
add it to an instance of
org.apache.http.impl.client.BasicCookieStore.BasicCookieStore, then
add that to your BasicHttpContext. then it goes something like this:

AndroidHttpClient client = AndroidHttpClient.newInstance(USER_AGENT);

BasicHttpContext httpContext = new BasicHttpContext();
httpContext.setAttribute(ClientContext.COOKIE_STORE, mCookieStore);

HttpGet request = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse httpResponse = client.execute(request, httpContext);

[android-developers] ADT r14 - Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1

2011-10-21 Thread Ben H

since updating ADT to r14, i've been plagued by the bug described here

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=20398

and here

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7823312/problems-building-with-adt-r14

i was surprised that i couldn't find a thread about this bug in this
group. i'm hoping someone here has some insight. i've tried all the
solutions offered so far, and none of them work for me.

my comment from the bug report: i'm having this problem too. my app
only references one library - my LVL library. i have tried removing
the reference, cleaning .classpath, and .project, and removing
references to source folders. i've cleaned the project, opened and
closed it, and waved a dead chicken over my keyboard. nothing has
worked. please help!

[android-developers] Android repository missing platform packages? Help!

2011-10-21 Thread Ben H

i recently reinstalled the android sdk because of this infuriating
build bug in r14. when i open the android sdk manager, i do not see
any platform packages available. i installed r12 of the sdk tools, and
i see the r14 package available, but nothing else. where's all the
platform packages, docs, etc.? see this screenshot of the sdk manager:

http://i.imgur.com/uyBAE.png

if you look at the android repository.xml, it also only has the
platform tools packages.

http://dl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml

shouldn't it have everything, not just the tools packages? is there
another url that i need to add for the platform packages? thanks.

Hmm so does that mean that anything prior to r14 is unsupported? That

the build bug. None of the available fixes work for me. I'm completely

thanks for the workaround to use r12. i'll try it. an ftp site would be nice

[android-developers] setText for a TextView sometimes produces FC

2011-10-16 Thread Ben Lee

Hi,
Very rarely, my app crashes in setText.
Here is the detail:

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: index=4 length=4
 at android.text.AndroidBidi.directions(AndroidBidi.java:65)
 at android.text.StaticLayout.out(StaticLayout.java:680)
 at android.text.StaticLayout.generate(StaticLayout.java:380)
 at android.text.DynamicLayout.reflow(DynamicLayout.java:261)
 at android.text.DynamicLayout.init(DynamicLayout.java:150)
 at android.widget.TextView.makeNewLayout(TextView.java:5523)
 at android.widget.TextView.checkForRelayout(TextView.java:6022)
 at android.widget.TextView.setText(TextView.java:2826)
 at android.widget.TextView.setText(TextView.java:2691)
 at android.widget.TextView.setText(TextView.java:2666)
 at my.handrite.widget.NoteIndexItemView.setNote(NoteIndexItemView.java:100)

In my code, it looks like this:
99SpannableStringBuilder spannable_string = note.getSpannableString();
100   mTextView.setText(spannable_string);
This happens very rarely, I only get this issue from android market's issue
report, never happens when I debug.

I want to read the source code of android, but unfortunately,
AndroidBidi.java(in android 2.2, android 2.3) don't have row 65(as in the
issue report)--it don't have that much rows.
So I guess this may happened in Android 3.0+, which we don't have access to
the source code yet.

Is it possible to find the bug?
Thank you!

 In general, the latter, unless you have a good reason and know what you're
 doing.

Let android handle it should be your first choice.
But if creating a new activity is too expensive for your app, you may want
to handle the orientation yourself. Since your layout are the same, I guess
it won't be very complicate to handle orientation change by yourself.

My problem is not Case-insensitive.
I need to run a query on Hebrew column, but the query not return any
row.

Android SQLite can store Unicode but doesn't perform query in
different languages?
I read somwere that some SQLite3 version (SQLite JDBC Driver) have
full Unicode support (not by default).

I missed something or that a bug?

[android-developers] Re: LVL - Checking licence validity from a server

2011-10-01 Thread Ben

For anyone else having this problem, the issue was with the response
data.

Signed data comes in looking like this if it's a TEST EMAIL account:-
0|136040138|com.foo.bar|1|ANlOHQOShF3uJUwv3Ql+fbsgEG9FD35Hag==|
123456789012

if it is a genuine MARKET account
0|136040138|com.foo.bar|1|ANlOHQOShF3uJUwv3Ql+fbsgEG9FD35Hag==|
123456789012:GR=10VT=0987654321GT=1234567890

When the signed data is validated, the data after the ':' is stripped,
so trying to re-validate the data will fail in the case of the market
account, and pass in the case of the test email account.

Ben

[android-developers] Automatic device resident apps running in bkgrd

2011-09-05 Thread Ben Chen

I'm new to Android development, so please pardon if this question
seems too fundmental. I was wondering if it was possible to create an
application that once launched is always ON even when the phone is
not being used (unless of course the user manually terminates it or
the battery runs out) and will periodically awaken to send certain
information (e.g., location) via text. This will not be spyware, and
the user will be fully aware of this feature if they launch the
application. Is this doable?  Thanks.

[android-developers] Background Application Consistently On

2011-09-04 Thread Ben Chen

I'm not that familiar with Android development, just IOS so please
pardon if this is question seems too fundamental.

I'm oking to create an applicaiton that once launched will
consistently be on ... even when the individual is not actively
using the phone/app.  At various intervals, the application would send
infomation (e.g., location, texts, etc.).  Is this device resident
application that is always ON and automatically sends this information
without the user's manual intervention each time implementable in
Android?  Thanks.

Hi!

Took me a few days to look at your answer(holiday time^^) and it seems
that my solution with manipulating the textview in the onPostExecute
Method doesnt work stable(I dont get it), so I will try it as you

 I can help you with this bit --- you shouldn't try to manipulate the
 TextView directly in
 your doInBackground method.  The easiest thing to do for debugging status
 messages
 like these is to use Log.d and Log.e to put them in the log, and read them
 out with adb
 logcat (or the log pane in Eclipse, or whatever).  If you really do want to
 display them
 directly on the phone UI, the easiest thing to do is have your background
 code (that is,
 the doInBackground method) publishProgress(), and put the UI updates in an
 onProgressUpdate() method.

 (What's going on here is that the Android UI classes are not thread-safe;
 manipulating
 them off the activity's main thread will either get you exceptions like
 this, or something
 worse.  The AsyncTask machinery arranges to run onProgressUpdate on that
 thread, so
 UI manipulation there is safe.)

[android-developers] Socket-Bug in Android VM (Eclipse) ???

2011-08-16 Thread Ben

Hi!

I've encountered a really strange behaviour of the Android Development
VM

-Starting an AsyncTask as a private class from my Activity (works
perfectly)
-Then the programm comes to: (tv=textview)

try {
tv.append(before socket\n);
cs = new Socket(10.1.1.1, 23);
tv.append(after socket);
os = cs.getOutputStream();
pw = new PrintWriter(os, false);
br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(cs.getInputStream()));

} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
tv.append(unknown host);

} catch (IOException e) {
tv.append(IO Exception);
e.printStackTrace();

The really interesting thing is that I get the message before socket
but not the after socket, there are no errors or anything(it just
hangs there) and I have tested this whole thing in a native java
environment where it worked perfectly, is there some bug with sockets
in the Eclipse Android VM? (Or am I doing something wrong)

Thanks in advance for some hints!

[android-developers] Problem with Socket in AsyncTask

Hi!

I'm having weird problems with a socket connection in an AsyncTask:


public class diagnosis extends Activity {


TextView tv;


protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.diagnosis_test_gui);

//textview erzeugen
tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.dtg_tv);
tv.setMovementMethod(ScrollingMovementMethod.getInstance());


}

private class conmng extends AsyncTaskString, Void, Integer {
PrintWriter pw;
OutputStream os;
BufferedReader br;
@Override
protected Integer doInBackground(String... params) {
Socket cs = null;


try {
cs.setSoTimeout(500);
} catch (SocketException e) {
tv.append(Socket Timeout);
e.printStackTrace();
}
   

tv.append(trying to open socket\n);  


try {
tv.append(before socket\n);
cs = new Socket(10.0.0.4, 23);
tv.append(after socket);
os = cs.getOutputStream();
pw = new PrintWriter(os, false);
br = new BufferedReader(new 
InputStreamReader(cs.getInputStream()));

} catch (UnknownHostException uh) {
uh.printStackTrace();
tv.append(unknown host);

} catch (IOException io) {
tv.append(IO Exception);
io.printStackTrace();

} catch (SecurityException se) {
tv.append(Security Exception);

2011-08-16 Thread Ben

Thanks for the help!!! It works now(got rid of the timeout setting and
creating the socket elsewhere in the class. I also get the right
exceptions now, but I have no Idea why I wouldnt get them before(it
was an ip address, never a hostname and I never saw unusual traffic in
wireshark...), but well I dunno :D

 Your socket is null at this point, hence the NPE. Move this code
 somewhere after new Socket(...);

  tv.append(after socket); but just a second after that I get 08-13

 You are trying to append text to a TextVie from within doInBackground()
 which executes in a separate thread. Don't do this, modify the UI only
 in pre/postExecute().

  -If I try to connect to an address that is not existing(which is exactly
  the situation I want to simulate) I wont get any exception like unknown
  host or anything it just hangs and hangs and hangs withour any error or
  something till it kills my router with its trying(DDos anyone?) :D

 What address are you trying with? If it's a hostname it might be waiting
 for a DNS response. You probably need to change your router if it is
 that easy to kill :)

  The whole thing worked just fine in native java and I would greatly
  appreciate any help!

 Read up on the basics of Android a bit, apps are written in Java, but a
 lot of things are quite different compared to desktop/server side Java.

[android-developers] 16bit grayscale images and allowing window/level

2011-07-14 Thread Ben Litchfield

Assuming I had an image that has raw short data(grayscale), images are
approx 2000x3000 but can be scaled down for performance.  I would like
to display this image and to smoothly allow for window/leveling the
image.

Moving your finger up/down and left/right would change the window/
level/

Basically I would like to have my array of grayscale short pixel data
and a lookup table.  As the user moves their finger I would only
update the lookup table.  The display would use the pixel data and the
lookup table.

I see these classes but don't quite see how to hook them up with what
I'm trying to do.

ColorFilter
ColorMatrix
ColorMatrixColorFilter

Any hints?

[android-developers] How to deal with the paste widget in android 3.0?

2011-07-13 Thread Ben Lee

Hi,

This question is first asked in
stackoverflowhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/6648177/how-to-handle-the-paste-event-in-android-3-0honeycomb,
but still got no helpful answer. Then I realize maybe this is an advanced
question, I should post it here.

I have a customized EditText, which need to do customized paste.

I overrode onTextContextMenuItem(int id) to handle paste requested by
selecting context menu.

@Override
public boolean onTextContextMenuItem(int id) {
  switch(id){
  case android.R.id.paste:
doMyPaste();
return true;
  }
}

This works in Android before 3.0.
In 3.0, however, there is a small paste widget near the cursor widget if
it's long-pressed, or the cursor is tapped.
[image: enter image description here]
When user do paste from this widget, the onTextContextMenuItem(int id) won't
be invoked. As a result, I can't do the customized paste.
Do any one knows what that small paste widget is? Which method should I
override to do a my own paste?

Thank you!

[android-developers] replicating SmsManager.sendDataMessage on CDMA phones

2011-06-29 Thread Ben Fleischhacker

I'm having trouble with the sendDataMessage method in SmsManager
(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/
SmsManager.html).

Sending a data sms between 2 gsm emulator's appears to at least
partially work, but I get a NullPointerException when using the same
method on a verizon cdma phone.

I found this link to a bug report (http://code.google.com/p/android/
issues/detail?id=7319) for the same issue, but I'm wondering if
there's a way to work around this problem or something similar i can
use on CDMA phones

[android-developers] Re: EditText stops displaying characters as I'm typing?

2011-06-07 Thread Ben S

I actually looked at that in the Android repository as well...didn't
get too deep into it, just as far as you posted.

I can replicate the problem personally on a Galaxy S (Fascinate)
running 2.2.1, a Nexus One running 2.3.3, and the emulator running
2.1.  A couple of friends let me test on their Droid X running 2.2.1,
an Adam tablet running 2.2, a Nexus S running 2.3.3, and an original
Droid running the latest stock firmware (2.2? maybe).

All of those show the problem.  I even dropped my emulator down to 1.5
to see if I could replicate the issue and I could.

 The following extracts from IInputConnectionWrapper shed a little

 but,

 For some reason the Input Connection appears to be dropped.

 May I ask, on what OS/Device have you replicated this? I'm seeing this
 on a G-Slate running 3.0.1.

Sorry for the late reply...I've been on vacation.

Just before I left I found that any extraneous code I executed
within the OnKeyListener would cause the issue to reproduce (I also
tried several other callback methods such as onKey, etc. and those
produced the same result).

If there was any other code I executed (which there was in the
ellipsized portion I left out in the OP), the bug could be reproduced
quite frequently.  There was a bit of code in the portion I left out,
but simply calling a method to send the text through a socket or to
add that text to a listview adapter would produce the bug.

I.e:

if (sendText.length()  0) {
   v.setText();

   lvA.add(00:00pm, sendText); //This would cause the
edittext to stop functioning normally
}

I also tried using a handler as well, but found that it wouldn't get
rid of the issue.  The one thing I have done now to workaround the
issue was to remove my OnKeyListener.  Instead, what I ended up doing
was to add a Send button right next to my EditText, and in its
onClickListener I run all of the code I previously ran in my
OnKeyListener.  Also, I went ahead and set the EditText inputType as
textShortMessage (in xml: android:inputType=text|textAutoCorrect|
textShortMessage) so that the unused/unmapped enter key on the
keyboard would become a smiley key instead.

After doing this, I can't replicate the bug.  It doesn't solve the
underlying issue, but at least it's something.

[android-developers] Re: input/output ports

2011-06-03 Thread Ben

I can only answer number two.  The cost is zero to get the SDK and
write fully-functional applications for Android.  There is a one-time
$25 fee to become a developer and publish in the Android Market, and
you'll have to furnish your own hardware of course.  Eclipse and all
the Android software tools are free.

 which was made on the iphone.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dY7ZQM5eah8

 2.   Are there any ICDs or in circuit debuggers needed, or is it USB
 only?     I understand I can get the SDK from developer.android.com
 but are there other costs associated?

 3.  Ive been asked to potentially teach a college class, a few labs

 Anything i should know before getting started with this new concept?

[android-developers] Another Android Development Forum

2011-06-03 Thread Ben

I've been a member of linuxquestions.org for a few years, and they've
just spun off another forum for Android.  It covers all aspects
(hardware, apps, etc.) and includes a development forum as well.

I'm not trying to take away from what is here, but I'm all for
multiple sources.  There is a magnificent amount of quality
information here on the Google forum!

If you like to answer questions, try it out.  If it's half as
successful as linuxquestions.org, it may provide some good discussion
on development and other aspects of the platform and devices.

[android-developers] Spinner items missing selection radio button

2011-05-30 Thread Nadav Ben-Gal

Hey, i asked it at SO few days ago, no answer yet, hoped someone here
will have an idea...
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6146442/spinner-items-selection-
radio-missing)

When my items contains English and/or numeric signs, it shows the
radio selection near the item, but when it doesn't contains any
English and/or numeric signs (contains only Hebrew in my example) it
does not show the radio selection near the item.

For the adapters (array adapter) creation i used the layout
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item

And before setting the Spinner adapter I did

 
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);

The solution I found for now, is set the layout to
simple_dropdown_item_1line; this solves the problem by not showing
the radio button.

Any ideas on how to get the radio button visible always?


-
correction - it does not solve the problem, in _few_ of my spinner the
text is now whit (on a white background..)

Thanks,
Nadav

[android-developers] Re: Orientation

2011-05-30 Thread Ben

I believe you should save the state in the onStop() method and bring
it back in through the onResume() method.  The act of changing screen
orientation stops the activity and restarts it in the new
orientation.  onStop() and onResume() should handle it for you.

[android-developers] EditText stops displaying characters as I'm typing?

2011-05-13 Thread Ben S

Basically what happens is I will start typing on the keyboard (stock
and third party), and all of a sudden it stops showing characters I
type in the EditText, (sometimes) resets the caret to the beginning,
yet I know I'm still typing because the suggestions box shows the
characters as I type.  I've experienced the behavior on at least 5
different devices (running 2.2, 2.3) as well as the emulator (running
2.1) but can't seem to nail down a solution.

It is seemingly random; I'm not reading any error logs through DDMS
from the system, (the only thing I see being written :sometimes: is
WARN/IInputConnectionWrapper(991): endBatchEdit on inactive
InputConnection) so I'm a little baffled.

Here is what it looks like: http://i.stack.imgur.com/gsB49.png

Here is the XML layout of the EditText:

?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

ListView android:id=@android:id/list
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:layout_weight=1
android:transcriptMode=alwaysScroll/

EditText android:id=@+id/etMain
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:inputType=text|textAutoCorrect
android:imeOptions=actionSend
requestFocus /
/EditText
/LinearLayout


And here is my code from the Activity:

et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etMain);

et.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {
@Override
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, 
KeyEvent
event) {
if ((event != null  (event.getKeyCode() ==
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_SEND) {
String sendText = 
v.getText().toString();

if (sendText.length()  0) {
v.setText();



}
}
return true;
}

return false;
}
});


Appreciate any insights...let me know if you need anything else...

[android-developers] Trade my Android Open Accessory Developer Kit (ADK) trade for your new Sprint Nexus S 4G?

2011-05-11 Thread Ben

I have one of the first official ADK (Android Open Accessory Developer
Kit) Arduino kits distributed by Google during IO today and I'm
looking to trade it for the brand new Sprint Nexus S 4G phone.  I hope
it is not inappropriate to put this out to android-developers mailing
list.

I happened to be in the room at IO when they gave out the ADK kits to
those attending the session, however I'm not a hardware hacker and I
doubt I will make much use of it.  I am building Android apps however,
and I'd really like to experiment with NFC which is on the Sprint
Nexus S device.

I'm not into price-gouging and won't put this on eBay for the highest
bidder (others will, I'm sure). Instead I just want to trade it for a
device more suited to my development.  For reference, a link on the
official Google pages to purchase this kit points to a Japanese online
retailer who are selling these for 31,500円, ~US$390 (http://www.rt-
shop.sakura.ne.jp/rt-shop/index.php) although they are currently out
of stock.

Accounting for shipping, customs fees and the fact this is out of
stock I think this equates to a fair trade for the phone.

If you are interested please send me an email.  I will also be at Day
2 of Google IO if you are interested in trading in person.

Thanks,
Ben

 Not that I've seen from the Bluetooth API exposed to the user. I don't

   actually
 scan for the uuid using SDP, which requires a call to the API.

  When the device is in range, I am able to call
  BluetoothAdapter.getRemoteDevice and retrieve the friendly name. But
  when I am not in range, it seems this information is cached. I was
  thinking if I can use the friendly name as an indicator whether the
  device is within range (i.e If friendly name is not null, then it's
   in
  range). I am certain there is better way to do this. But it seems 
  the
  only way is to establishing a connection.

 I don't think there is a better way, at least with the current API.
   Unless
 by better way you mean a more elaborate synchronization mechanism or
 something like that. But yes, I think at least from the API exposed by
   the
 android system, you have to do polling.

 (I wanted to do what you described too, I think it's a common thing,
   but
 perhaps not the anticipated use of BT and / or the android API.)

[android-developers] Mounting and UnMounting SDCard

2011-02-11 Thread Nadav Ben-Gal

Hey,
After some searches (actually a lot :)) the only related solution i
found is to take the MountListener, MountService and their friends
(some other related class) and to add them to the project.
but when the code reaches to listenToSocket() function, it crashes on
socket.connect(address); (line 203) the reason is permission denied.
the apk contains the internet permission (which is the only somehow
related permission since we create a LocalSocket).
I also added a FactoryTest (app will run as root by manual)
permission. non of them helped.

from digging some more up, i saw that it connects to the VOLD (volume
demon) and send commands to him. i checked to see if VDC is exists
(thought it might by 2.3 breaking change or something like that...)
but its there.

the only thing i can think of is that i messed something up in the
Mount* files and I should call those functions via reflection but i
don't see how it will help me since it's crashing on permission
denied.

any ideas?
if anyone ever done it (or know what to do) It will help me a lot to
hear how and what I can do.

Thanks,
Nadav

I´ve been working on NFC with my Samsung 5230 mobile, and now I am

questions. I´ve been reading the group and the developers web page,

- Is it possible to read MIFARE DESFire tags using the standard API.
In order to do that I have always used the JSR 257 spec. but I don´t
know if it is possible to do something similar with the current
Android version.

- Suppose that I have a tag that is a sticker always affixed to the
mobile phone. Is it possible to read it always my application is
started?? In the mobile I used to work with it was a limitation since
once the sticker was detected the first time it could not detect it
anymore until I removed the sticker from the mobile NFC range and got
it close again. Would be possible using Android API to detect it
anytime I start the app without having to remove it??

- I am working on JavaCard too and I have developed an applet in order
to complete the authentication steps in a secure way. Is it possible
to access JavaCard applets in my SD card using Android API. Until that
moment I have used the JSR 177 (APDU Connection, ...) in order to do
that. The problem with others mobile is that to access the SD you have
to sign your midlet with a Verysign certificate, but I don´t want to

[android-developers] NFC P2P Mode

2011-01-21 Thread Ben Dodson

I was looking through the git repository history and found some code
relating to P2P mode in Android. I understand it's not ready for use
by users and typical Android developers, but I was hoping to play
around with it myself. I was wondering if anyone else was playing with
this or had some experience to share.

The feature I'm trying to re-enable is called MyTag, and there are
relevant commits in the Nfc and libnfc-nxp, linked below. I also wrote
my own custom BroadcastReceiver with the hope of setting the tag value
from userspace. I'm just hoping to put together some demos on top of
nfc, so security and long-term stability aren't important to me.

Relevant commits:

[android-developers] How to determine why app was restarted

2010-12-21 Thread Ben

Hi,

I am developing an application that loads data via the internet on
start up or when the user clicks a refresh button. What I don't want
to happen is for the application to reload the data when the
application is restarted due to the orientation of the android device
is changed.

Is there any way to determine why the application has been restarted?

Regards

Ben

Any information out there on this would be great.  Occasionally, songs
just fail.  But, even without failing I get 101 consecutive errors
from the MediaPlayer, starting with ext1=0 thru ext1=100, as well as
this III constructor business.  This makes finding real errors
in the log very very hard.

Bad Samsung.

I'm using a TabActivity to run two activity.
In the first activity I'm using GestureDetector.Fling for flipping
between views of the first Activity.
I have tested the first activity and it works well.
But when I have add it into the TabHost using TasSpec  setContent(new
Intent(this,MyFlipper.class).
The problem that i'm no longer able to catch the fling.

Thank you for your help.

[android-developers] Determining whether StageFright or OpenCore is in use?

2010-10-28 Thread Ben O

I have an app that needs some conditional code depending on whether
it's using the old-style OpenCore media platform or StageFright.  I
noticed trouble on rooted phones where StageFright is disabled, and on
the Droid X where it still seems to use OpenCore out of the box, so
keying strictly off whether the device is running 2.2 isn't helpful.

Is there any way to determine programmatically which media decoder is
in use on a given phone?

[android-developers] Determing end of Scroll View scroll

2010-09-22 Thread ben

Is there any way you to determine the pixel value where a scroll view
stops on a fling. It's easy enough to find when the user is scrolling
the view with a touch but I see no way to determine the end point of a
fling. The only solution I could come up with is to use a gesture
detector to catch a fling and then calculate where it would stop based
on the velocity, is that the best way?

I'm trying to create a view that will indicate to the user when there
is more to scroll to, and then have the indicator vanish when the
scroll view is at the beginning or end.

[android-developers] Re: Streaming MP3 Playback Problems on Android 2.2

2010-09-20 Thread Ben Pellow

I'm seeing this issue as well, and only with 2.2.  I've seen it with
the emulator, droid x, nexus one and moto droid.  It happens lot more
to me (10x+) with high bitrate streams than low ones (320 vs 120 kbps
mp3).  It seems intermittent and I can find nothing on the web posted
about it other than this thread.

It is a real problem with media apps running in 2.2.  The constant
-2147483648 always appears with this MediaPlayer error, and could
probably be tracked down in the source.  The problem is not with
eMusic or the stream.  I have seen the same issue with streams hosted
by other services.

On Sep 18, 12:51 pm, jdeslip jdes...@gmail.com wrote:
 Yes, it works fine on 2.1 and below.  This is almost certainly related
 to the problems the Pandora/Last.fm etc.. apps have on 2.2.  I just
 want to find out what the recommended tactic for developers with this
 problem is.  Is Google on verge of releasing an update 2.2?  Or is
 there an official workaround?

  If that were the problem, then why would it work under 1.5 and fail

   Have you considered that eMusic might be doing something on the server

Actually we do have the resources, and we do compete with them
directly. I would say were highly competitive with them. And anyone
who is a big player in the mobile market knows that being first to
market is a huge huge advantage. Look at the current android market, a
majority of the top apps on the market are the apps that were their
first, or things everyone is going to use such Maps.

 If they take users away from us then I don't see how our company
benefits from that at all.

Dianne,

I understand that the market can't be opened up to everyone all at
once. I can only begin to imagine what a nightmare that would be to
manage. I just don't understand why this can't be more open like the
c2dm start was. C2DM can't have everyone on the market using it at
once. But at least it was open for everyone to apply to get into the
beta.
