Android NinePatch files seem to be standard .png files with extra information. Is there a spec for the format anywhere, as I'd like to be able to implement this on other platforms?
On the iPhone/iPod touch, settings could be kept in the Settings.app. Can you do this in Android? Or must you settings have to be in the actual appilcation?
Hi all I am new to android. I parsed the calendar file. I need to add events to Google calendar from my application. I am using eclipse ide. In eclipse how to use the Google calendar api? Any jar file is needed to use the calendar api?
I've got a string:
public://imageifarm/3600.jpg
How can I extract the
imageifarm/3600.jpg
Part out using android?
What I've tried so far:
URL drupalQuestionNodeImageURI = new URL("public://imageifarm/3600.jpg");
Log.d("TAG", drupalQuestionNodeImageURI.getPath());
but it throws this exception:
09-16 17:24:39.992: W/System.err(3763): java.net.MalformedURLException: Unknown protocol: public
How can I solve this?
I know I can use regular expressions but that seems to defeat the purpose of URL(URI) in this case.
I'm developing a native app for Android and I'm trying to use functions such as glIsEnabled which appear to be only available in OpenGL ES 1.1. Google's docs claim that NDK 1.6R1 supports OpenGL ES v1.1 but the function call fails with "unimplemented Open GL ES API" and if i do a glGetString(GL_VERSION) it returns "OpenGL ES 1.0 CM" as the version.
So if 1.1 is available, what do I have to link against to get it or what else do i need to change to get it?

Are there any good database abstraction layers/object relational mappers/ActiveRecord implementations/whatever they are called for Android? I'm aware that db4o is officially supported, but it has quite a large footprint and I'd rather use a more conventional database (SQLite).
I'm trying to build a voip application on a new android device, i use AudioRecorder to read the microphone but I'm getting no valid results, just white noise.
This happen only on this new device(other work well) and this is probably because this device has PTT ability.
Is there some workaround to avoid using AudioRecoder to receive streaming data from the microphone?
Thanks.

I have an android app that periodically, say once a week downloads content from a server in XML. The content is used by the app, different Acitivities use different parts of the content.
My question is a design one, should I save the data in SQlite or just keep it as an XML file, which one would be faster to read?
The app can only use one content piece at a time, which means subsequent XML content downloads replace the old one.
What are some things you wish you had known about Android when you first started out or before you published your first app on the market? I am nearing completion on my first and am starting to make sure I have crossed my proverbial Ts and dotted the Is

view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}

Android is an open source operating system that is modified by cell phone vendors (HTC, Motorola, etc.). Modifications include the user interface, drivers, and other proprietary extensions.
Traditionally, product lines have been a suite of products or services that share a core set of functionality and are modified for different domains and markets.
Does this still qualify as a product line?
Is there a way to change the sync settings of a Gmail account programmatically with an Android app? For instance, I'd like to enable/disable syncing of a Gmail account from my app, without the user having to do anything.
I took a look at AccountManager, but that doesn't seem to be the right place to look.
