Android : Handle Person Extensions In Droid 2.0?
Dec 3, 2009
I have as a lot a people troubles with the new ContactsContract class.
My problem is like in 1.5 and 1.6 devices, we can add a key to a contact with the Contacts.People.Extensions class. But now there is a problem with this content provider.. It's unknown by new devices. And it's the only provider who does not work. Does someone know why is it not working anymore ? And is there a new way to put some extensions for contacts ( with the ContactContract class maybe?

I'm totally new to developing apps for android and am just getting started in flash CS5. According to most tutorials that I can find on the web I need to install an extension from adobe.
see this tutorial
Creative Sweet TV - Publish to Android 2.2 from Adobe Flash CS5 | Adobe TV
However, when I go to adobe's site they say that the extension isn't available anymore and will be integrated with their new version of Flash!!!!
Adobe Flash Professional CS5 Extension for Adobe AIR 2.5 - Adobe Labs
I just bought a new Mac to run CS5 and can't believe that now it looks like I'll have to upgrade my software, at more expense, in order to do something that was possible only a short time ago!!

I just realized the lack of this feature (or incompatibility) when I tried to call someone and kept getting "your call cannot be completed" message from Verizon.
If Google is trying to target business users they need to get their act straight. The problem is not putting semi column or comma or upside down questionmark to dial extensions, but the issue is the compatibility.
Outlook and most contact management/e-mail systems use X as a divider between main number and extension.
It also makes sense "x" "eXtension". Anyway, I was able to sync all my contact beautifully, only to find out that I cannot call my clients, friends or the companies where I have to dial extensions. I don't remember all their extensions, and I cannot change hundreds of them one by one.
Any way to replace the default "x" for extension in Outlook 2010. Otherwise Android is useless for those calls.

My phone is running stock 4.2.1 and I am using the latest version of Dashclock from Google Play.
When I log into my phone using my PIN, the next time the Dashclock lock screen shows the widgets as small tiles beside the time, whereas I want them as big tiles.
The first screen is what it keeps defaulting to, even if I set it to the middle screen in the image below
To make them big, I drag down to expand the area, however, once I put in the PIN, the next time they are all small again.

Has anyone else noticed the person on the other end saying they are breaking up when using bluetooth in a car? My wife says all the time when I call her from the car I sound like I am breaking up and she has a hard time hearing me. Never had any issue with the old EnV, is this common for the Droid?

I know Android cannot handle PDFs natively. However, the Nexus One (and possibly other phones) come pre-Installed with QuickOffice Viewer. How would I determine whether the user has a PDF viewer installed?
Currently, the code to start the PDF download looks pretty simple:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
After the download, the user clicks on the downloaded file to invoke the viewer.
However, if there is no PDF viewer, Android reports "Cannot download. The content is not supported on the phone."
I want to determine if the user will get this message, and if so, direct them to PDF apps in the Android Market.

I have just gotten my first Android based device, the HTC Droid Incredible.
I am not new to the world of smartphones (I have owned a Blackberry and have worked on many other Blackberries), but I am new to the whole world of Android.
I really do like it so far, but I have a question...
How does Android handle data? What I mean by this question is this: Does Android use a store and forward approach to sending data (emails)? Or does it send it out and if it doesn't have a good connection, it will just fail out, never to try again?
And based on the fact that it uses data, I also assume that it will never lose it's data connection even though a cell phone tower might be buried under voice calls?
The reason I ask this is because during 9/11, many people's cell phones could not make or receive calls but those who had some of the first Blackberries were able to send and receive emails just fine due to the store and forward approach.
Also, another reason is that this device will be used in a SHTF type of situation due to it's capabilities and I want to make sure that it will work with data (sending emails), although I may not be able to make voice calls with it.

I have several contacts in my phone where I have multiple phone numbers but the location does not always match up with Google choices (MOBILE, WORK, HOME etc) Or in the case of a store like Costco, a different number for each department - Main, Pizza, Pharmacy etc. On my Palm I just used to put initials next to the number to remind me which was which, but that does not work on the Droid - it would not call the number with extra letters. Other than putting the information in my notes, has anyone found a work around? Ideally, I would like to change the words, WORK, HOME, MOBILE, etc to better reflect the ownership and location of that particular number. But that seems highly unlikely since it's connected to Google Contacts. Just wondering how others handle multiple numbers besides a totally different entry, or by adding the info in notes.

I have seen the new HTC Droid Eris commercial a few times and it seems to fudge the truth when using the HTC people widget. You can clearly see in the commercial someone clicking on a person from the HTC people widget. However, after they click the person it brings up the person's information, as opposed to performing the default action specified for the contact. From my tinkering with this widget, it seems that you cannot actually perform the action they show in the commercial.

So, I had the motorola droid. And sometimes I'd send a text message...and It would end up going to the wrong person. As in, for examply this morning a friend texted me something that was not suppose to go to me, but they typed the message to the person that it should have went to but it did not, is this just a motorola droid problem? because i have not had this problem with my new driod incredible.

I have experienced making a call where I can hear the other person on the line but they can't hear me. Also, why does ending a call take forever. Also the the voice dialer can't even recognize what I am saying it always gives me the wrong information in need. Is there a calibration for the voice dialer to train my voice?

I'm used to my contacts being under a contacts setting/button/tangible thing. I had my contacts transferred into Google Contacts, which now sync to my phone. Is there a special way to have contacts actually on your SD card? Or do i just need to keep google sync on. I tried turning it off for battery purposes, but then all my contacts went away. I've set up HTC People, but I still don't know how to like just view my contacts, or quickly add a new person. Sorry if this is very newb, I just waited a really long time to get a smart phone, and the only one I've gotten to use has been an iPhone since i deal with them at work everyday.

I'm thinking about using a ViewFlipper for an Wizard like Activity. But I see one problem with this approach. The back button. Will the back button go back to the last shown activity or will the the Viewflipper somehow catch the back button event and only change to the last shown activity?

I have an onKeyDown event which is only needed for handling the Up and Down hardware keys in my app. For these it returns true, as they are handled. For anything else it returns false which I understand means that the OS should handle them. However, when I press the Back button, my onKeyDown is called and returns false, but there is no other effect. I want/would expect the OS to finish the current Activity and resume the previous one.

I have numerous activites in my Android app., and most should contain the same, relatively complex set of UI widgets on the screen's top area (lets say that its a kind of toolbar that you can find on most screens).
Right now, every screen's layout contains the markup for this toolbar, along with its logic inside every Activity's source, so it's damn redundant. Could you recommend a more efficient / less redunant way to do this?

I'm working on an open source project for android and am wondering whether there are any best practices (or at least well-argued hints) on how to manage the private key for signing the APKs.
On the one hand, the key should be secured, on the other hand, at least the members of the core team should be able to create "official" releases.
My first suggestion was to just distribute the encrypted private key in the source repository and give out the passphrase to committers, but the trust (from the community to the individual) cannot be revoked.
Is there any other way to share the signing rights (e.g. by setting up a private CA and creating keys for each committer) among the members?

Suppose I have something like an alarm activity which launches the alarm through the lock screen, accomplished via
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TURN_SCREEN_ON);
Now, from here I could press the back button to kill the activity, but I also want a press of the lock button to silence the alarm. How would I go about creating a handler for presses of the lock screen button?
