I developer a android app. Today I get the HTC hero for testing. I installed the driver and can start the app on the device. The problem is that I need a network connection. I am connect via usb to my desktop computer. Can the device that is on usb connect use my i-net connection to send a request?

I am developing an application that use the GPS and the geolocalion. So, during the application launch, I have to be sure that the user has activated the network and GPS. If he didn't tested 2 solutions : Ask the user to activate them himself (so the application quit, and the user has to reload it) Redirect the user in the corresponding view in order to activate them ( via something like "android.provider.Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS " )
The second solution is better to my mind but can be very boring for the user if he has to activate the Network + the GPS + Nework localisation That's why I ask if it is not possible to activate all that automatically if it is not possible ? I think it is possible because it exists widget that let the user activate network, gps etc... but how can we do that in the application?
I can use any of my other ROMs without issue (Darch, Fresh, etc.) , but CM6 does not connect to the mobile network for some reason. And since ##3282# and ##786# do not work, I am stuck. How does one activate this thing?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAs you may have heard Android Device Manager has rolled out to 2.2 and above. To activate it, go to settings and then tap Device Administrators. There should be an option to activate Android Device Manager.
To track it and wipe the data follow the directions: Go to [URL]... log in and then click the settings gear under your account info. There should be an option for Android Device Manager.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have an android application that parses some HTML, downloads an image, and displays it. I'm using an AsyncTask to do the HTML parsing and image downloading, but that shouldn't be relevant. I never have a problem when I'm on WiFi on my phone, when I'm using the Eclipse debugger on my phone, or when I'm using the emulator. When I have my phone on the cell network (even with pretty good reception), the image sometimes fails to display. I'm having a hard time figuring out what is wrong, since the problem cannot be reproduced in the debugger. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
Update: I have narrowed it down to the image downloading function. This way my original code:.......................
I've been developing on the simulator, but now I have a real device.
adb can see the device (from adb devices), and I've installed Eclipse/ ADB.
I can't work out how to get debug to use the device instead of the simulator though.
I'm new to Android development, and am attempting to run a test application on my actual device. I followed the instructions at http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html (and related links), but the Android Debug Bridge (adb) doesn't recognize my connected device.
Some quick background info, I'm running WinXP, developing with Eclipse, with a Motorola Droid running Android 2.1 as my physical device.
An overview of the steps I've taken: Installed the Android SDK, downloading all necessary packages. Enabled USB Debugging on my device. Connected Device via USB, installing the driver from the SDK folder.
I'll stop here (though I continued to setup my application to be debug-able in Eclipse), because I at this point I noticed a problem.
Running "sdkoolsadb devices" at this point (at least, by my understanding), should list my device as connected. However, running this yields only: List of devices attached
My device recognizes that it's connected to a computer in debug mode, and my computer recognizes the device. However, I can't seem to get the sdk to recognize it. I'll leave out the steps I used to setup Eclipse for debugging on a device, as it doesn't seem relevant to the problem. I'll include them if requested.
I have a HTC Desire which i would like to debug and run my Android application on. But when i in Eclipse gets the Window where i can choose between devices my HTC Desire is listed with only questionmarks (???).
I have tried this:
Enabled USB Debugging on my device and enabled debugging in my application Manifest.xml file.
In Terminal i have do this:
1. Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules.
2. SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
3. sudo service udev restart

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have set up a "Debug Configuration" to debug my Android project. However to get it to debug on a device (HTC Desire) I have to set the Configuration's "Target" to "Manual", there seems to be no way to set in the Debug Configuration that it should go to a selected Device.
It does work, but each debug session I have to "Manually" choose the HTC device from the dialog. Can I set it to always to go the Device?
I'm trying to develop an android application that uses network connection. The server is up and running, but when i am trying to access it from the device that runs the android app (in debug mode-using eclipse) it outputs a message that 'cannot find the server' after a UnknownHostException occurs! I have tested the server with a java application and it works fine! What is the problem then with the device?

I need test my Android app on a Motorola Cliq but don't have one. Is there a testing service that will let me make a debug connection to that device so I can run some tests and find out where the code is failing. Video connections won't tell me that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI uploaded my application to Market and then downloaded it to my phone. Now I'm unable to use debug keystore which is used by default by Eclipse ADT Plugin (Re-installation failed due to different application signatures) and when I'm trying to setup own keystore in Eclipse->Windows->Android->Build->CustomDebugKeystore, I'm unable to enter password or accept keystore and type password later. Is there anything I can do or only way do debug app on device is to uninstall market version and deal with default debug keystore?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a completely broken screen/lcd/digitizer on my Samsung Galaxy S3, debug mode was not on. The phone works as it will still vibrate when turned on and the LED / Menu / Back buttons light up during a boot. USB connector works as well. The phone was not previously rooted.
I had most important data on the sd card and I've already wrote off any other data on the phone as I've since moved on to a GN2. I would like to make use of the S3 (not necessarily as a phone but a server, security camera, etc.). I've read several posts here about my options and looked at numerous google articles, all seem to require debug mode being on or assume/require the data/OS must remain as this is what the user is trying to recover. I do not care if all data is lost on the phone, I just want to make the device useful again.
Am I out of luck if debug mode was not enabled or can I flash through adb via some obscure mechanism? Also note that fastboot is not an option here as the S3 (samsung) does not have it enabled. I am unable to get into "Download Mode" as I cannot see info on the screen.
I have tried with zero success to get a USB debug connection from a WinXP dev box to a brand X Android 1.6 tablet. I believe I had everything configured correctly on the Android and installed correctly on the dev box, but when the two are connected with a USB cable NOTHING HAPPENS; i.e. Windows finds no new hardware much less a new USB device; therefore, I cannot then install the Android SDK USB drivers on Windows and do the debug thing with Eclipse.
Either the mfg of the Android tablet device has disabled USB debugging and just didn't remove the UI that appears to enable it -- or I've left out some crucial step(s). (The device manual is 100% Chinese and I'm 0% Chinese, so it's no help. The tablet is very nearly, but not, the model A84 7" touch screen 'laptop' at 'www.lezestar.com' in case this helps.)
On the tablet:
- 'Settings/Application/Development/USB Debugging' is enabled.
- Tried 'Settings/Application/Development/Allow mock locations' enabled and not.
- Has 500MB internal flash 'hard disk'
- Has installed 2G SD card
- Firmware: 1.6
- Kernel: 2.6.29-002360g4f8dbbb-dirty
- Build No: 1.7.3
On Dev box:
- Windows XP SP3
- Device Manager finds no 'new hardware' when XP<-->Android USB cable is connected.
- Neither USBDeview.exe (Nirsoft) nor USBView.exe (Microsoft) find any evidence of connection with the Android
- Eclipse Galileo (3.5.2) with Android SDK (for 1.6) and ADV Manager.
- USB Driver package, rev 3. downloaded using ADV Manager.
Other:
- USB ports on both Tablet and dev box successfully connect a USB mouse.
- Tablet and Windows XP have been rebooted often.
Is permanently disabling debugging something that Android manufacturors are allowed to do and therefore I'm trying something that can't be done?
If the mfg has 'disabled' debugging, is there a way to work around this; e.g. download a tool that can change Android OS configuration to reenable it?
I have a brand new Nexus One. I'm trying to follow the directions for installing the USB driver. When I plug in the device, it doesn't start the New Hardware Wizard, as the documentation suggests. I can run hdwwiz.exe to launch it and manually install the driver, but when I do, Device Manager says: "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Eris with Android v. 2.1 and a Belkin 54g router. The phone lists my home network in its list of of wifi networks. When I press the entry, an info box says that signal strength is good and security is open. (for the purpose of trying to have my phone connect). When I press "connect," it says "Obtaining IP address." Then after a couple of minutes, it says "Unsuccessful."
My phone has connected to other WiFi networks with no problem; indeed, it has done so automatically, with no effort on my part. My router assigns IP addresses via DHCP. It also broadcasts its SSID, which the phone recognizes.
We have multiple Android phones, including my Incredible, in our house on our wireless network. Is there a way to assign a name to each phone so that they are identified on the router like computers and other devices are? Currently the Android phones just show up as "unknown" device. The Wi-Fi is secured with 128-bit encryption, so I'm not concerned with the neighbors connecting, but it would be nice to be able to see which phones are on the network at any one time.
