Android :: Locked Up My Device?

Sep 11, 2009

I've been able to lock the screen twice with the current implementation of the app I'm writing (MediaDroid). It's very inconsistently (2 out of about 100 runs) and I'm not sure how to trigger it, so I'm assuming it's some sort of race condition or the number of threads I'm spawning.

The activity I'm working on loads a gallery of thumbnails from the sdcard. I believe I'm using most of the best practices described by Romain Guy from his Google I/O talk "Make your Android UI Fast and Efficient". I've implemented an image cache with SoftReferences wrapping my Bitmaps and created an Efficient Adapter for the gallery using the ViewHolder pattern.

What I am doing, which I question, is loading each image via a thread as it is retrieved from the ImageCache...I pass back a default image if the bitmap is null, then update the default image in the ImageViews with the Bitmap is loaded from the sdcard; I'm doing this by posting to a Handler in the Adapter from the thread that loads the image.

So as you can imagine a number of threads are created, about 25 at a time, as the user swipes through the image gallery. Once the user reaches the end of the gallery, the images are only reloaded if the garbage collector has collected them due to the SoftReference. I've been impressed by how well this worked....until the bug mysteriously started appearing. What has happened both times is, all the images in the gallery show the default images, then I get an ANR and with the force close or wait option, I hit force close and the ANR dialog shrinks (but doesn't go away) and the background goes black...then everything just freezes...here's the logs where I believe things start to lock up.

CODE:......

If I press on the screen I get nothing on the device, but in the logs I get

CODE:........

And I have to power down the device.

So if the number of threads is the problem I'm thinking of loading all the bitmaps when the app is first initiated, probably using the AsyncTask class. A question I have though about this is that the docs say that you can only call execute() once...what's happens if some of my Bitmaps are garbage collected?? Do I then call individual threads to reload? I've looked through some of the Google apps, Shelves and Photostream, but they don't seem to be using Bitmaps wrapped in SoftReferences.

Nexus :: WiFi Sleeps When Device Locked / Solution For This?

Jun 11, 2010

I want you guys to test the new email notifications when the device is connected through WiFi.

For this you've to set the WiFi sleep policy to never and the Background and Auto sync option needs to be checked.

Well, I don't get any notifications. I went an extra mile ahead and pinged the IP address and found that I get "request timed out" error when device is locked and when it is unlocked, the packets are received properly.

General :: Accessing External SDCard From PC (USB)

Jun 1, 2013

I'm running a custom ROM (4.2.2) on an HTC Vivid. When I connect to my PC via usb, Windows only sees the internal storage, not the external sd card, and there's no way to navigate to the System partition to access.

When I was running the stock HTC ICS, Windows would mount the external card as a separate drive. I know the file system hierarchy is different with JB. Is this why it only sees the internal storage now?

General :: Accessing SD Card Through Windows Applications

Mar 14, 2012

I need some way to access the SD card on my SGS2 GT-9100 from certain applications in windows. E.g., when I try browsing for a destination folder in the phone through these programs, my phone is not recognized at all.

The long story:The problem I am trying to overcome is copying of images from my computer to my phone without changing the creation date (for sorting purposes). When copying from my computer to my device this attribute changes an thus all images have the same date and there is no way of making any sense of which picture was taken when.

So my plan is to get access to the images on my device, after altering there dates, and use a program which will change the creation date from the modification date (which holds the original date taken of the pictures).

General :: How To Stop Google Music From Accessing Internet

May 15, 2013

I copied my music files from my PC to the phone, but now when I try and play the music in Play Music, its somehow accessing the internet, changing my tags, album art etc which I've spent years perfecting on my own. BTW none of this stuff is in the cloud or purchased from Google, they're all "real" MP3 files.

Is there a way to stop the app from doing this, or are there alternate apps?

I'd like to know how to access my Google Bookmarks via Chrome for my Android. In Chrome (Android), I made sure sync was enabled for my Google account and bookmarks is checked.

General :: Galaxy S4 - Accessing Microsoft Excel File?

Jun 15, 2013

I have a dropbox folder with a Microsoft Excel document stored in it. This excel file contains a list of web links on it.

My goal is to use my Galaxy S4 phone to open this file though dropbox and then click on the links and then have the web pages open up in my phone browser.

Currently, my Galaxy S4 phone does have the dropbox app on it. My phone is able to access the excel file in dropbox just fine by using the Polaris Office App. However, when I click on the links within the Excel file, it does not forward me to the web pages.

Is there some way for me to click on the links on this Excel file and then be forwarded to the corresponding web pages? Perhaps there is an App other than Polaris which is capable of doing this?

General :: Accessing Workplace Exchange Server Via Android

Jan 28, 2012

My workplace currently does not support the Android platform, and thus I cannot access the Microsoft Exchange server/Activesync from my phone.

Have any apps been developed that would possibly disguise my phone as an iPhone, or something similar, so I can receive e-mail via mobile? iOS is currently the only mobile platform they support, so that'd most likely be the easiest work-around.

I know someone who works in the data center, and he showed me the script they run every week to check if anything other than iPhones have accessed the server, which they then have the option to boot/wipe memory as needed.

General :: Send SMS When Locked

May 11, 2014

Any app that will allow reading AND replying to sms texts without first unlocking your phone? I mean a phone that is password/pin protected.

Ideally, I'd like a lock screen that allows access to all non-sensitive functionality: camera, sms, calls, maps. The list goes on. The only things that need to be password protected are settings, email (as this can be used to reset other passwords), browser (where you may have saved passwords/credit card details), play store (or anywhere you can make purchases).

Have tried a lot of replacement lock screens like GO locker & executive assistant,

General :: PUK Code Is Locked

Feb 7, 2013

I upgraded my Dad to a One X a few weeks ago. Today he tells me about some sim message and then he said he couldn't make calls anymore.

Sure enough the home screen says the PUK Code is locked. Att tries to tell me that i can happen due to a variety of things yet they can't explain what these variety of things are so I tell the cs person to send me to tech support.

In the mean time I pop the sim out, replace it and restart the phone. Looks like he's back in business.

General :: New Context Menu Doesn't Appear When Accessing SD Card From Computer

Sep 11, 2013

Basically, I'm unable to make a briefcase folder on my phone's SD card. I can make new folders, but I don't get the range of options that you would normally get when hovering your cursor over the "New" option (when opening the "New" context menu) when accessing my SD card via a usb cable plugged into the phone; I'm actually able to get the context menu when accessing the SD card by sticking it straight into the computer, but when it remains in my phone (and the phone's hooked up to the computer), I don't get the context menu.

Here's what I want:

Obviously, I can just use the SD card by plugging it directly into the computer, but it's inconvenient to take off the case, remove the back, etc. I'd rather just plug a USB cable directly into the phone. Why is my phone preventing me from getting that context menu when doing so though?

General :: Locked Out After Android 4.4.2 Upgrade

Jan 15, 2014

So it seems that I along with many others who have the Motorola Droid Mini, Ultra and Maxx on Verizon have been receiving our much anticipated 4.4.2 upgrade. As of about and hour ago I ran it on my Droid Maxx which is totally stock and has never been rooted and is pretty much brand new. As I typically do after and upgrade I started playing around with all the new features that came with 4.4.2, one of the being the ability to unlock you phone handsfree by speaking a pin code to it I decided to give it a try. So I hit up my settings and removed my trusty pattern lock, set my self up with a nice eight digit pin (stupid mistake #1), made it complicated as in not 12345678 (stupid mistake #2), didn't write it down (stupid mistake #4) and the proceeded to forget it in the amount of time it took me to lock my screen. Now I was under the understanding that I could bypass the lock screen with my g-mail account password, but I cant seem to find where, and to make matters worse I have failed the pin code 8 out of the allotted 10 times before the phone wipes itself.

I hardly doubt that Android 4.4.2 lost the ability to use your gmail account as a bypass in this situation did they? I know a lot of times people think that it is due to the phone not actually being signed in, but I have both received application updates from the play store and emails from my gmail account indicating the device is signed in.

General :: Install APK When Locked Out Of Phone?

Mar 10, 2013

I was trying out the Pattern Lock feature on my HTC Incredible S and got locked out after too many incorrect attempts. I can't use my email address and password to verify my account as my data and wifi are switched off.

To get around this problem, I've transferred to my microSD card the XtraSec apk that will allow me to remotely switch on wifi and data. However, I'm not sure how to trigger the installation of the apk when I can't get past the lock screen .Can I use fastboot to access the file explorer app (ES file explorer) or apk installer app to get the apk to install?

I haven't rooted the phone and it's running the latest version of Android. I'm not sure if I have USB debugging enabled. I'd like to avoid doing a reset if possible coz I haven't backed up the things that aren't on the sd card.
