HTC EVO 4G :: 2.2 Just Killed My Hotspot

Aug 5, 2010

So have had my Evo since end of june using my hotspot 2 power up my laptops and ps3 no problems got 4g and hotspot going at the same time than I download 2.2 and every time i power up the hotspot the 4g drops out. I call sprint and dude tells me i was one of the lucky ones that got my hotspot for free? for the first month but now its gonna be 29.95 if i wanna use the hotspot? hello thats why i bought the fn thing? He said he would give me one more month for no charge but thats his final offer! I decline and ask him to give me the president so he can tell me why sprint is sticking it 2 me once again! Does the 2.2 software allow them to turn the hotspot one and off again at will? Until I figure this all out im leaving my other evo on 2.1.

Android :: Service Getting Killed?

Jun 29, 2010

I have a service in my app the creates an alarm and runs a check ever X minutes. I am new to android and I was wondering is there a way to prevent another app such as ATK (advanced task killer) from kill my service/alarms? It seems that if I normally close the app my alarms still work but when I go to ATK and stop the app the service dies as well. Maybe thats the point, but this service is rather important and most users would want it to run even if the app itself is no longer running. I assume that if the system kills it for whatever reason then their is nothing you can do about it. Could someone please inform me on this issue and a possible solution to do what I need?

HTC EVO 4G : FM Radio Stays On Even After Killed With Atk

Sep 11, 2010

It may be an android thing or an Evo thing. But I tried the fm radio app and since I wasn't getting any reception while wearing headphones, I decided to kill it, even though atk said it was killed the fm radio app still stayed on. Had to power down.

General :: Killed App Keeps Reappearing

Dec 27, 2012

I'm using Tasker to kill some apps. One of the apps has a persistent notification icon and it refuses to be killed (even with root). The notification icon is gone for a second but will always come right back. Using street I tried to find out if there was a watchdog process keeping the app alive, but I found none. Also it is not hooked to any events according to Auto-run manager. A force close under "app management" always works.

HTC EVO 4G :: Why Froyo Killed Battery Life

Aug 4, 2010

I noticed today that Froyo re-enabled "auto sign in" in Gtalk. I unchecked it, problem solved. If you're getting bad battery life after the update, make sure Gtalk is NOT auto signing you in. That's one of the biggest battery hogs. Just figured I'd post this to let everyone know a potential problem.

HTC Hero :: Apps Not Being Killed On 2.1-update

Aug 3, 2010

My message apps (native Message and Handcent app) keep on reappearing, even when I kill them.

I've used the Settings > Applications > Running services, also Advanced Task Killer (by ReChild) and Task Manager (by Futon Redemption), but after a few minutes they'll reappear again.

This has only happened after I updated my Hero from 1.5 to 2.1. (I'm on Orange).

This seems to be a reoccurring theme of apps not being killed off after updating to 2.1. Others have reported Amazon MP3 and Skype apps not being killed off and even not uninstalling.

My battery life seems to be draining away now since the 2.1 update, and I'm thinking this may be the message-app-not-sleeping problem, hence my attempts at killing off the native message app.

Does anyone have any ideas to kill these apps off?

Android :: Service Gets Killed - Due To Activity?

Jun 10, 2010

I have a service running in the background. It starts on device boot. Also, I have one activity (that appears in the task launcher) in which I have provided buttons to start and stop the service.

Now, I install the application on the phone and I start the service using this activity (and not on-device boot). As expected the service starts and starts doing its designated task. I no-longer need the activity. So it goes out of sight and may not be required for a long time now.

My question is, now, if the android platform kills this activity, will it kill my service too ? (This is because I see that after few hours, my service is not running anymore.). If this is true, then will the service continue running longer if the service was started on device boot.

General :: ADB Command Gets Killed Before It Finishes

Sep 9, 2013

I'm having a problem with unlocking my phone. Some of my friends tried to unlock the pattern but after 20 failures the phone blocked. Now I have to submit my google login so I can get back on it. The problem with that was that I was on vacation abroad so my 3G and wifi were both turned off. I've read about other problems like this and came to a point where I was trying to turn on my wifi with adb. I found that I could use the command "svc wifi enable" and I tried this several times, every time with the same result: I think the command starts but then gets killed before it finishes.

Android :: Framerate Killed By OnTouchEvent Spam

Apr 27, 2009

I've got a problem with a flood of touch events destroying my game's framerate while there is a touch active. Basically onTouchEvent is called (with getAction = ACTION_MOVE, x = 0 and y = 0) about a hundred times a second for as long as the finger is touching the screen. I've tried returning from onTouchEvent straight away, and even removing its implementation at all, but it doesn't help - the app slows to a crawl as soon as a finger is down. I asked on the IRC channel and Romain Guy advised me that they're aware of the problem but didn't have time to fix it for Cupcake, so I'm not expecting a full solution!

I created application with name Test, and has a class that extends broadcastreceiver that listen for PACKAGE_RESTARTED. I use Advanced Task Killer, and killed the Test application. But when I kill another application, for example gmail, the Test's broadcastreceiver got the intent (I logged it). Does it means that broadcastreceiver will never died?

Android :: Stop An Application If Any Of Activities Were Killed By OS

Sep 10, 2010

I have an application with many forms implemented as separate activities. The form variables are dynamically built based on a database, and there are a ton of variables in the C++ side of the application (accessed via JNI). I don't see how saving out all of this data to persistent storage each time the onPause() or the onSaveInstanceState() of one of these many activities goes into the background is a smart use of processor time. And I don't see how even if I save the local variables for each activity during that time I'd be able to restore a single activity within the context of all the others.

I have set up a service that auto saves the files when I detect that the app has gone into the background. (I set a time stamp when onPause() is called in any activity and then clear the time stamp when onResume() is called on any other activity. If the time elapsed is more than a few seconds, I know I'm not the top activity any longer and the service saves the files).

What I'd like to do is continue on as normal unless the OS kills one of my activities. Since we don't always get notified of this, I thought it would be nice if there were a way to tell the OS that I'd rather you kill the whole app than just one activity.

Samsung Fascinate :: Touchwiz Homescreen Got Killed

Oct 2, 2010

I originally rooted so I could remove the verizon bloat / crap. Then I realized I couldn't get OTA updates (and I'm not the type that wants to keep manually updating the ROM on my phone). So I did the "back to stock" flash that unroots the phone and grabbed the OTA update. Since then I've been using Launcher Pro just to hide the programs I don't like. Now, somewhere in this process, the touchwiz homescreen got killed. If I kill Launcher Pro, all I'm left with is a black screen with nothing on it. No TwLauncher dock, nothing. When the phone boots up initially, I'll have that black screen, then launcher pro and my wallpaper will appear over it as well. Any ideas how this happened? And could this hurt the operation of my phone?

Android :: Froyo - Killed Application Detection?

Jul 29, 2010

On Froyo, we found that some new "Task Manager" apps are now using the ActivityManager.killBackgroundProcesses() to kill apps. When this happens, Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_RESTARTED is no longer fired. How can I find out that my application has been killed? I tried to start a service, and I do see this message printed in logcat:

W/ActivityManager( 2426): Scheduling restart of crashed service com.example.android.apis/.app.RemoteService in 20000ms

However, the service is never restarted as advertised, if the app is killed using the killBackgroundProcesses API. (If I go into adb shell and kill the service process, the service will indeed be restarted ...) This looks like a bug anyway, because the notification created by the app is no longer removed like in eclair (the StatusBarService, and a bunch of other system services, depend on the Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_RESTARTED broadcast).

Android :: Avoid Background Thread Been Killed?

Mar 1, 2009

As is mentioned above,What i'm trying is to protect a sub- thread,and keep it going on as long as the App that starts it is still alive.In other words,If the system need more resources,Let it kill both the App main thread and the sub-thread started from it,Instead of just kill the sub-thread.Is there any way i can do this ?? And another question here,The android system seems to be "rude",As it killed my thread without telling me,even in the logs,Is this the case?

Android :: GPS Application Gets Killed On Screen Timeout

Apr 9, 2009

I can see on OMAP zoom2 platform, the moment screen timeout happens my application is getting terminated. I have a Google map based LBS application which is running on Zoom. I have implemented the interfaces given in gps.h to libhardware_legacy/gps.cpp .

GPS application talks to android framework and Framework talks to libhardware to get the GPS info. Now I can see that the moment screen timeout happens and the display goes off, my application killed. Actually from the framework the stop interface (hgps_stop() ) gets called on screen timeout.

I am wondring why this is happening, as I am not sending any stop request form my GPS application to the libhardware.

Is it something related to Android power manager, that android Power manager does not know about my application is running?

Android :: BroadcastReceiver To Restart Killed - Crashed App?

Sep 14, 2010

I have an application and I would like to be able to restart it on the event of an error or a crash/app shutdown. I am familiar with how to register BroadcastReceivers, use alarms, etc.

Is there any signal I could intercept that the app sends out when it shuts down? Or that the OS sends out when any app shuts down?

General :: Ringtone App Killed Personalized Tones

Sep 25, 2012

I installed and used the Big Bang ringtone maker and now have lost the ability to have personalized ringtones for my contacts. I only used the app to make 1 ringtone from an mp3 on my phone. I've now uninstalled the app, deleted the ringtone files it created and restarted, but still don't have personalized ringtones. The contact will say it's a different ringtone, but when she calls it's always the default. I've contacted the developer but haven't heard back. how I can get this to work again?

Jun 6, 2010

This is confirmed by Verizon, so take warning.I got my Incredible on Tues, used my BB charger on my phone because the Verizon store said it was ok since it was still a micro usb. My battery started dying after about a few hours. Tried every trick in the book and still died afte about 3 hrs.Went to the Verizon store and got it replace. They once again said it was ok to use the blackberry charger. So i let the new battery run down as the guy said and began to charge w/ my blackberry car charger for about 30 min. I noticed the orange charger light was not on. I unplugged the charger and the phone will not even turn on now. Verizon is overnighting me another Incredible.Listen to others if you want or take your chances, but the tech guy at Verizons main tech support center said to use only Htc chargers. **SO USE YOUR BB CHARGERS ON YOUR INCREDIBLE AT YOUR OWN RISK**

Android :: Registered Broadcast Receivers After Application Is Killed?

Mar 25, 2010

Currently my application is configured to always receive the CONNECTIVITY_CHANGED action to force an update if the previous update failed because there was no connectivity. What I don't like about this is that the broadcast receiver gets to be called too many times although it is not needed. I was thinking to register my broadcast receiver only if an update failed using the Context.registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver, IntentFilter filter) method. But I'm not so sure if this is a good idea. I'm concerned that if my application is evicted from memory the broadcast receiver will be unregistered or lost and my application will not be notified about the future CONNECTIVITY_CHANGED actions. The update is done in a short lived service. So if the update fails, the service will register the broadcast receiver just before it ends its execution time. Can somebody explain what happens to my broadcast receiver after the application is evicted from memory?

Android :: OnStart() Not Called When Service Restarted After Being Killed?

Jul 25, 2009

I have a service that needs to hold a persistent TCP connection, think IM. I'm reluctant to use setForeground() - the service being down temporarily isn't that big a deal, and I am assume I can trust that I'll be run again once memory is available, correct? The problem here is this. The service was started via startService() before being killed. However, when it is restarted, only onCreate() is executed. This makes it hard to continue, because starting work onCreate() means I can't even bind to the service (to say query it's status) without it doing so. Is this a bug or per design? What is the status of the service after it is being restarted? Is it consider "started" by the system, i.e. waiting for a call to stopService()?

Android :: Prevent App / Service From Being Killed From Task Manager?

May 7, 2010

It is very important that my service stay running until someone with a password stops the service from my UI screen. My app runs great but it is designed to be turned on/off by parents (with a password) on their kids phones. I have managed to make everything work but the problem I'm having is that if the kid uses a task manager to kill my service then my app is useless. I would be grateful to anyone who knows a way to either

1) monitor the service and start it back up automatically if its "killed"
or
2) prevent someone from being able to kill it except from the activity (administration screen) that launched the service. Or both?

Android :: Activity Being Killed - OnDestroy - On Orientation Change

Apr 5, 2010

I am working on a MVC implementation for Android (to be subsequently hosted on SF and/or GC).

It works like this:

Activity (View) <=> Application (Controller) <=> Data (Model) <=> Persistence (DB/Network etc)

The scenario is:

1. Activity launch (main/launcher)

2. Notifies Application about performing a data transaction

3. Upon receipt of data response, controller devices which Activity to launch (or update existing)

4. Application has overridden the method onConfigurationChange

Problem: When the orientation is changed, the Application is notified about onConfigurationChange but:

a) The "current" activity is Destroyed and recreated -- which is fine to some extent b) The new instance which is created is automatically => onCreate, onPause, onStop, onDestroy.... now that's catastrophic.
