  • Design patter for extending Android's activities?

    - by Carl
    While programming on Android, I end up writing a parent activity which is extended by several others. A bit like ListActivity. My parent activity extends Activity. if I intend to use a Map or a List, I can't use my parent activity as superclass - the child activity can only extend one activity obviously. As such I end up writing my parent activities with the same logic for Activity, ListActivity, MapActivity and so forth. What am I looking for is some sort of trait functionality/design pattern which would help in this case. Any suggestions?

  • How can an Android Service know that its not bound to any Activities

    - by tunneling
    I have an Android Service that I would like to keep running even after the last Activity has been popped off the stack, or the User has chosen to do something else. Essentially the Service is listening for changes on a remote server, and I would like to generate a Notification if and only if an Activity from the app isn't running(or visible). In other words, I don't want the Notifications to occur while the User is directly interacting with the app. In the case where the User is directly interacting with the app, the Service will notify the Activity and update appropriate UI elements based on the changes. I plan to implement this through the Observer pattern. How can the Service know if none of apps Activities are bound to it? Thanks, J

  • Building Outline Data in Google Maps (Android)

    - by scotty.hoag
    I'm working on an Android project that focuses on knowing how close you are to buildings. I wanted to know if there is some way to extract the geographic information about the outlines of buildings out of the Google Maps API. Thanks. EDIT: The functionality I'm looking for is similar to what's going on in this app. (Click the link near the top of the page that says "View Live Sample".) http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/javascript/gmaps/help/google_start.htm#topics/samples/identify_features.html

  • [Android] Text inserted in the edittext is overwritten

    - by Paul
    Hello.. I'm a beginner and am making a calculator (fairly easy), but it's happening the following problem: When Cline in "1" button for example, he enters this number in the EditText, but if you click again the number is overwritten instead of the inserted his side as desired. How do the numbers were placed side by side without overwriting those already there? Note: The layout of buttons and etc. I did in. XML, so I'm not using the keyboard native Android. Thanks!

  • Android – multiple custom versions of the same app

    - by Ulrich Scheller
    Whats the best way to deploy several customized versions of a Android application? Currently I have a script to exchange the resource folder for getting a customized version of my app. It works great, but all custom versions still have the same package name in the AndroidManifest.xml. Therefore it is not possible to install two customized versions of the app at the same time. This is one solution for this problem, but that has to be done by hand Can you think of a more easy solution, or how this could be built into a skript? (btw: it is not for a porn/spam/whatever app, not even a paid one)

  • Android card based game, need help to start

    - by user331296
    Hello, I'm just setting out in android development. I want to make a kind of card based game. I'm just looking for suggestions really on how I might start it. I know I have to make the menu layout and view, then use an Intent from that to get to the main game view. My sticking points are: -There's going to be a deck of cards. It's going to be a set number so I was thinking I could just have each card defined as a button in the layout. I don't know if that is the right way to do it though. -Storage of card details. I'm thinking of using an xml file to store these. Thanks in advance.

  • Disable Bluetooth discoverable mode on Android

    - by Venator85
    Hi, I found in the Android documentation how to turn Bluetooth discoverability mode on: Intent discoverableIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE); discoverableIntent.putExtra(BluetoothAdapter.EXTRA_DISCOVERABLE_DURATION, 300); startActivity(discoverableIntent); This will make the device discoverable for 300 seconds (documentation). My question is: how to turn discoverability OFF before this timeout occurs? I'd like to replicate the corresponding setting in Settings|Wireless and networks|Bluetooth settings applet, that allows discoverability to be turned on and off with a click. Any help? Thanks ;)

  • Android game goes blank after pressing home and restarting

    - by sirconnorstack
    I am making an Android game with an Activity called Game, a SurfaceView called GameView and a Thread called GameThread. The Game's onCreate(), I make a new GameView, which makes a new GameThread, where all the game logic and canvas drawing is carried out. However, I'm having some lifecycle difficulties. When I press back and restart it, it works fine, but when I press home and restart it, all I see is a blank screen. Here are the GameView's onSurfaceCreated() and onSurfaceDestroyed(): @Override public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) { mThread.mRunning = true; mThread.mWidth = getWidth(); if(mThread.mWidth > 550) mThread.mWidth = 550; mThread.mHeight = getHeight(); try { mThread.start(); } catch(IllegalThreadStateException e) { } } @Override public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) { // Wait for the secondary thread to end before finishing boolean retry = true; mThread.mRunning = false; while (retry) { try { mThread.join(); retry = false; } catch (InterruptedException e) { } } }

  • Dealing with Android devices without MENU key

    - by hgpc
    I'm told by some users that my Android app is not usable because their device does not have a MENU key. What's the best way to deal with these devices? Is it possible to detect if the device lack a MENU key and show a menu button only in this case? And most importantly, how do you test this in the simulator? Thanks. Edit: Apparently the problem was that the users didn't know that the Menu key was called the Menu key.

  • Running ARM assembly code in Android

    - by Robert Joseph Dacunto
    I've been following the guide posted here, trying to get this Hello, World program to run on my Samsung Galaxy S3. It's rooted already, and I successfully pushed the "hello" file onto the sdcard. Now when I enter the shell as the superuser (# instead of $), and try to run the file, I get "cannot execute - permission denied". I used chmod 755 hello to see if that would fix it, still nothing. Is there something I'm missing? This is my first time fiddling around with Android, just got the phone, and wanted to see if I could get this to work. Very new to it all. Thanks!

  • Can't add libraries to Eclipse Android project

    - by neuromancer
    I'm trying to get the Hackbook for Android project to work in Eclipse. One of the things I need to do is remove that invalid reference and include that project I made. I did this before, but then I started over and now it doesn't work. Here is where I add the project. If I click "Apply" and then "OK" everything seems to be fine, but it isn't, because when I go back to this screen, none of the changes I made are there. Why isn't it saving my changes? How am I supposed to do this?

  • opengl es transparent fog in android

    - by Sponge
    I was wondering why the fog i use in opengl es on my android phone isn't transparent when i set the colors alpha to 0. I set the background to transparent and it works fine and the Color class or the toFloatBuffer() method are working fine for my meshes but when i set the fog color to transparent then this fact is ignored. here is the basic code i use for fog in the onSurfaceCreated() method of my renderer: gl.glFogf(GL10.GL_FOG_MODE, GL10.GL_LINEAR); gl.glFogf(GL10.GL_FOG_START, 4.0f); gl.glFogf(GL10.GL_FOG_END, 10.0f); gl.glFogfv(GL10.GL_FOG_COLOR, new Color(0,0,0,0).toFloatBuffer()); gl.glEnable(GL10.GL_FOG);

  • Clicking Elements in Android Doesn't Display the Correct Values

    - by Devin
    I apologize if this code looks a bit like a mess (considering the length); I figured I'd just include everything that goes on in my program at the moment. I'm attempting to create a fairly simple Tic Tac Toe app for Android. I've set up my UI nicely so far so that there are a "grid" of TextViews. As a sort of "debug" right now, I have it so that when one clicks on a TextView, it should display the value of buttonId in a message box. Right now, it displays the correct assigned value for the first element I click, but no matter what I click afterwards, it always just displays the first value buttonID had. I attempted to debug it but couldn't exactly find a point where it would pull the old value (to the best of my knowledge, it reassigned the value). There's a good possibility I'm missing something small, because this is my first Android project (of any note). Can someone help get different values of buttonId to appear or point out the error in my logic? The code: package com.TicTacToe.app; import com.TicTacToe.app.R; //Other import statements public class TicTacToe extends Activity { public String player = "X"; public int ALERT_ID; public int buttonId; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); //Sets up instances of UI elements final TextView playerText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.CurrentPlayerDisp); final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.SetPlayer); final TextView location1 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location1); final TextView location2 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location2); final TextView location3 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location3); final TextView location4 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location4); final TextView location5 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location5); final TextView location6 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location6); final TextView location7 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location7); final TextView location8 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location8); final TextView location9 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.location9); playerText.setText(player); //Handlers for events button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { // Perform action on click if (player.equals("X")){ player = "O"; playerText.setText(player); } else if(player.equals("O")){ player = "X"; playerText.setText(player); } //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 0; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 1; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 2; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location3.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 3; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location4.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 4; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location5.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 5; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location6.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 6; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location7.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 7; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location8.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 8; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); location9.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { //Sets up the dialog buttonId = 9; ALERT_ID = 0; onCreateDialog(ALERT_ID); showDialog(ALERT_ID); } }); } protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id){ String msgString = "You are on spot " + buttonId; AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this); builder.setMessage(msgString) .setCancelable(false) .setNeutralButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { dialog.cancel(); } }); AlertDialog alert = builder.create(); return alert; } }

  • Thread help with Android game

    - by Ciph3rzer0
    I need some help dealing with three Threads in Android One thread is the main thread, the other is the GLThread, and the other is a WorkerThread I created to update the game state. The problem I have is they all need to access the same LinkedList of game objects. Both the GLThread and my WorkerThread only read from the LinkedList, so no problem there, but occasionally I have the main thread adding in another game object to the list. How can I manage this? I tried using synchronized in front of the functions involved but it really slows down the application. For some reason, just catching the errors and not rendering or updating the game state that frame, causes it to start lagging permanently. Anyone have any great ideas?

  • android: getting rid of "warning: unmappable character for encoding ascii"

    - by Lo'oris
    I'm compiling using android tools without eclipse. I compile launching "ant debug" from command line. I have found many many instructions around the web about how to remove with annoying warning, but I haven't been able to make any of them work. I've tried -D option, I've tried randomly tweaking build.* files, I've tried exporting an environment variable... nothing. I guess some of these methods just don't work, and some others would work but I've been doing them incorrectly. Anything is possible and I can't stand it any more: any advice on how to do it?

  • Crossplatform development for iPhone & Android

    - by LeonixSolutions
    As far as I can see there doesn't seem to any mature environment for crossplatform development for iPhone & Android slate (but feel free to correct me). I don't know Ipad, I must admit. Any reason why plain Java wouldn't cut it? (maybe underlying things like database (I am not too concerned with hardware)) I am thinking to try to make everything browser based, although that won't get around the d/b & h/w issues, unless there is JS framework that does so. Any advice?

  • Android Round Button and Spinner inside Activity Group

    - by vaishali
    I have a Spinner and 2 buttons in an Activity Group. I want to apply rounded corner to the buttons. I have created shape xml resource file for round button in Android. I have assigned this resource file as background to the button while creating the button in Layout. But the change is not reflected after executing the application. I have set the ContentView for that screen as : setContentView(LayoutInflater.from(getParent()).inflate(R.layout.textmessage,null)); This has to be done to make spinner work in an Activity Group. How can I make the Button as round corner in an Activity Group having Spinner? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

  • Android app using 2.x APIs that will also run on 1.x

    - by Adam Haile
    I'm working on an Android app in which I would like to use multi-touch. However, I do not want to completely leave out those still running a 1.x OS phone. How do you program the app so that you can use the 2.x multi-touch APIs (or any other higher level API for that matter) and still allow it to gracefully degrade on 1.x systems. If you create a project in Eclipse for 1.x can you even still access the 2.x APIs? Basically I want it to show up in the marketplace and work on all 1.6 and higher phones and just allow access to the higher level functionality if available. Also, if anyone can point me to any data on the number of 1.x devices vs. 2.x devices in use, it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Android/ORMLite Insert Row with ID

    - by Joe M
    I'm currently using ORMLite to work with a SQLite database on Android. As part of this I am downloading a bunch of data from a backend server and I'd like to have this data added to the SQLite database in the exact same format it is on the backend server (ie the IDs are the same, etc). So, my question to you is if I populate my database entry object (we'll call it Equipment), including Equipment's generatedId/primary key field via setId(), and I then run a DAO.create() with that Equipment entry will that ID be saved correctly? I tried it this way and it seems to me that this was not the case. If that is the case I will try again and look for other problems, but with the first few passes over the code I was not able to find one. So essentially, if I call DAO.create() on a database object with an ID set will that ID be sent to the database and if it is not, how can I insert a row with a primary key value already filled out? Thanks!

  • Sending a Java object from my Android phone to my Computer

    - by TehGoose
    Hi, I was wondering what the simplest program for sending an object from my Andriod phone to my computer wirelessly (via LAN) would be. I have created Java RMI programs with a server and multiple clients, so I have a grasp of the concept. However with android I'm just not sure where to start. What I am aiming to do is send some sort of information (could simply be text) to my computer and my computer will do an action. I have the GUI interface's and the actions to be carried out all worked out, just the sending of some sort of information is getting me. Could anyone help me out?

  • Android - Opening phone deletes app state

    - by Tom G
    Hey everyone, I'm writing an android application that maintains a lot of "state" data...some of it I can save in the form of onSaveInstanceState but some of it is just to complex to save in memory. My problem is that sliding the phone open destroys/recreates the app, and I lose all my application state in the process. The same thing happens with the "back" button, but I overloaded that function on my way. Is there any way to overload the phone opening to prevent it from happening? Thanks in advance.

  • Get the co-ordinates of a touch event on Android

    - by Joe
    Hi, I'm new to Android, I've followed the hello world tutorial through and have a basic idea of what's going on. I'm particularly interested in the touch screen of my T-Mobile Pulse so just to get me started I want to be able to write the co-ordinates of a tocuh event on the screen, so say the user touched the co-ordinate 5,2 - a textview on the screen would display that. At present I have a simple program that just loads an xml file which contains the textview I intend to write the co-ordinates in. Thank you in advance, I did Google for help and searched stackoverflow but everything I found either went way over my head or wasn't suitable for this. Cheers.

  • Android Contact Picker

    - by user1066398
    I was wondering: Is it possible to customize the Android Contact Picker so that it can also allow adding a new contact as a menu option in the default contact list? At the moment, if I invoke the contact picker from my activity, it only displays the default contact list. I would also like the user to be able to create a new contact if it did not exist already. I have searched this quite a lot but do not find appropriate API to do this. There is nothing in ContactContract as far as I can see.

  • Android Loading & Playing Sound Based on String

    - by Chance
    I'm currently working on a simple Android app, and right now I am trying to get it to load in and play sounds. The problem I am faced with is that I want the sound it uses to be based on a string (With the same name as the sound file). The reason for this is simplicity in both the code and adding on to it. Now unfortunately I can't just slap a string in place of referencing the actual sound, but is there some way for me to compare a string to the entire raw folder to find the matching sound, or some other alternative short of defining every sound manually? Thank you for your time.
