I have an mysql database with some sports results in it. I want to write an android application to display these data on mobile phones.
I´ve searched on the internet for this issue and i think it is not possible to have a direct connection between the mysql database and the android application. (Is this right?)
So my question is the following: How can i have access in the android application to the mysql database in order to display some of the data?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI can not access the external network because of DNS problem, below is my steps:
1. Setup DNS ./adb shell setprop net.dns1 xx.xx.xx.xx
I can successful access the internal network withou setting the http_proxy, such as my.mycomany.com
2. Setup proxy Setup the http_proxy environment variable on the host, and setup the dns server in Android.
Access the external network in browser, such as www.google.com. It report "Web page not available", the log of logcat say that: I/InetAddress( 187): Unknown host www.google.com, throwing UnknownHostException E/browser ( 187): onReceivedError code:-2 The URL could not be found.
Setting the http_proxy in "sqlite3 /data/data/ com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db" also does not work.
I guess it is the dns issue. But strange that the DNS can work for internal network, but can not work for external network.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
My question is I think quite simple but I don't think the answer will be...
I have quite a lot of content to have in my application to make it run properly, and I'm thinking of putting all of it in a database, and distribute it in an embedded database with the application in the market.
The only trouble is that I have no idea of how to do that.
I know that I can extract a file .db from Eclipse DDMS with the content of my database, and I suppose I need to put it in the asset folder of my application, but then how to make the application use it to regenerate the application database?
I am in need to write an application for Android devices that needs to access a large (~200MB) database.
What would be the best way to do this? Can I just stick the database in the assets folder? I have read of various limitations that apply to the entire application size and to individual resources within, especially on some devices... What are exactly these limits?
Is there any way to do this apart from a post-installation download from an external server?
I would like to ask you smart people if anyone has seen any documentation regarding web access to a database from within an Android application. I would like to create a (FREE) application where the users can share information (rants/complains) around the globe. Each user will be able to see a little globe in his phone with locations of other users and some specific information about them.
Architecturally, I am thinking "database in my GoDaddy host, exposing a web service", and the web service accessed from the Android application. But I see no documentation about accessing web services. I can also go XML, maybe, but I am not seeing what mechanisms exist in the Android for over-the-web XML access.
I have a feeling I am mis-understanding something big in the picture. Can someone point me to docs, or knows something about this topic? (the iPhone has a Lighter app where you can see people lighting around the globe. Mine is similar, but people would not be lighting, instead they will be "complaining/ranting").
I am working on a Android app and I have a dilemma. I have a list of Objects. I have to update each of these objects with a database. I have 2 methods:
Method 1:I can loop through the Objects. For each object I can connect to the server, update it, and then move on to the next Object, and so forth.
Method 2:I can store the Objects in a list, send the whole list to the server, update it on the server side, then return a list of updated objects.
My questions are:
Which method is faster?
Which method is easier on the phone's battery?
I understand that to access a SQL database from Android I need to create a web service that will run on the SQL server and will process requests from the Android application, what I need to know is how to create this web service and how to access it from Android.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am creating an android app that is basically a listing of information on Mushrooms. I get this information from an sqlite database. I have a global singleton with a services class inside it in which I use to access my db. Almost every activity accesses the db. Is it better to leave my db open all the time or open and close it as I need the data? If the best practice is to leave it open all the time, where do I need to make sure to close it and what is the worst case scenario if I left it open when the activity was destroyed?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have four tabs (reports, review reports, map and settings). I have an sqlite database populated with report information. I wish to have the database accessible throughout the application. The reports tab successfully adds data to the database however using the same methodology crashes the application. The Android debugger points to the line where the database is called again.
In the reports tab the following code is used to launch the database...
CODE:.................
In the onCreate() method of the Review Tab - Where I wish to review reports - I try to access to the database through the call calling the return report method
this.reportDatabase = new ReportDatabase(this);
However this fails to work. In the android debugger highlights that the problem belongs with the context being provided to it. I realise that the report database has already been accessed by the report tab and wonder if this is causing the issue. I am new to programming android, the application is designed to report on flamingos in Africa, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Following the suggestion of Seva Alekseyev I have adapted as follows...
I have adapted my ReportDatabase as...
