View 1 RepliesI have an application which uses the network as the location provider (rather than GPS eg.), however I can't seem to figure out how to send the emulator test coordinates. In DDMS I would usually send coordinates in the Emulator Control tab.Is there a place to simulate coordinates derived from the cell phone network provider?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to write a simple widget that toggles GPS and network location on and off. I've read that it's not possible to do that normally, but presumably on a rooted phone it must be doable. Does anyone know what the code would be? (I only need the code to toggle the location providers, I know how to make the widget.) It doesn't matter that this isn't a 'good' solution, I don't plan to distribute the widget. If it matters, this would be on an HTC Hero, still running v1.5.

Anyone know where I can find this section in Android 2.0?

What files can i change or check for errors ? i have replaced the network location apk in the system/app directory with one that worked on my old phone, should i run and install this apk ?
I'm trying to access location data in the emulator but always receive null values :( This is the code: final Location Manager location Manager = (Location Manager) getSystemService( Context.LOCATION_SERVICE ); if ( location Manager == null ) { return; }

Whats the unit for the distance returned? 2) In windows XP using Eclipse 3.3.2. Emulator does not send coordinates properly. Either it by hand or by loading a gpx file the location Listener is not invoked. This same code I have tried it in Ubuntu and works fine. Does someone know how can I solve this? In the office there is no linux installed and I can take my personal laptop.

Can any one guide me how to achieve this?
How do I set the location of the emulator to a test position?
My application needs to perform some activities in background (like interacting with the network and check the location and some other stuff), having or not the main activity visible. Which is the best way to achieve this? Should I write a service for each kind of job? Or just one service that performs everything? I am aware that I will need to launch threads / asynctasks in any case because the service runs on the same thread of the UI, but maybe having several services is a more clear and readable structure.

However I've got a problem .It seems that the location can't be send to two emulator in my computer at the same time. So, may any master-hand can tell me if it is possible for us to send mock location to two emulator in the same computer at the same time?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've read many postings about problems getting the Android emulator DNS to work properly in certain situations. I have a simple app that makes an HTTP connection to a server on the Internet. If I use an IP address using the latest version of the emulator it works fine. If I use the domain name it throws a java.net.UnknownHostException: Host is unresolved: exception. The identical code works fine on any actual device. Has anyone figured out how to fix this situation? I've spent days trying everything, from using proxy servers to setting up and running a DNS server on my development machine. This situation/experience is a shame, because the emulator seems like such an impressive and well thought out collection of tools for developing and testing apps. However, it is currently useless to me. Is there anyone who can help? A prior thread on the same issue-appears to be the same situation: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...

Any pointers or suggestions which part of the framework code need to take a look. This dialog is controlled by Networklocation.apk which is not open source.
View 3 Replies View RelatedBased on what I've been reading, leaving GPS on won't drain more battery. It's just merely allowing apps to use the GPS.That said, if you have GPS on and have apps that use GPS, you will drain more battery.I want to leave my GPS on for "Where's my Droid." My question is this: how do I make it so that apps (weather widget, etc.) only use network location and not GPS? Is there a way to block all apps except those I choose from using GPS ?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIt keeps telling me I'm in the town across the river. Maybe according to the network location I am in that town but when I go to maps and it uses GPS it realizes the proper city. The weather app often makes this mistake. I thought when I setup my device it may have asked if I want to use GPS or just network location for something but I can't find that setting anymore. Any ideas on how to get more accurate current location for the weather widget?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI use Android emulator to test my location based application. The cordinates are provided by geo fix command (for example: geo fix 2.31278 48.9533 10). But when the new location event is fired, the cordinates are not the same as those in the command: I got latitude = 48.95800053333334, longitude = 2.3033544999999997 (I use Location.getLatitude() and Location.getLongitude() methods). Does anyone have an idea of my trouble ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm doing a distributed system using Android for my research project.In order to test it, I have connected two emulator instances in the same host machine. However, I need to put these two instances in separate host machines and make them connect through the local network (Wi-fi).I have seen that the emulator runs behind a virtual router, so it seems that I would have to somehow configure such virtual router, in order to forward my requests.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've noticed very poor performance in the emulator (1.6 and 2.1) when trying to complete the forth statement below. It will take 5+ minutes running in the emulator. Interestingly, when I debug on my phone it's not nearly as bad at maybe a minute or so, but still not great. Running the app on my phone without debugging yields great performance (seconds). URL url = new URL(CommonProperties.BASE_SERVICE_URL + "param=1"); DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder(); Document dom = builder.parse(url.openConnection(). getInputStream()); is there something I can do to speed up network access while using the emulator? Has anyone noticed anything similar?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am developing an application for android based cell phone from emulator. The application i am developing requires ad hoc network. I do not own the phone or can't get it from anywhere else. So I want to create and establish ad hoc network in that emulator only. I am using standard ADK 2.2. I read somewhere that the information and settings of networks are read through a file called tiwlan.ini. Is this file available even for emulator? If it is, where is it located inside it? If its not, can i copy the file available on Internet and put it somewhere inside my emulator and change system path to read network information to that file's path? If even that is not possible, is there any solution available by which I can establish ad hoc network on emulator?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWith the stock Touchwiz software you can not access the normal Android Settings menu for Location and by default the "Network Location" function is disabled.I installed Open Home (which is a must for this phone imho) and now I can access the classic settings menu.I enabled Network Location then launched Google Maps. After a second or two it centered on a road in Bellevue, WA that is not too far from T-Mo headquarters, problem is I am on the East Coast of the US. I pulled the battery and reboot the phone.Upon reboot I opened Google Maps again and it quickly found my approx location correctly but then within a second or two it switched back to this phantom location in Washington state.Has anyone else experiences this? If so is this a glitch with my phone or a known issue with the TouchWiz/Android OS? I really need this functionality in order for the phone to be useful for me. Anyone know of a fix for this?
View 21 Replies View RelatedI am trying to test some udp networking between emulator and host and I have a problem with setup. I assigned address 10.0.2.14 to the host interface with 10.0.2.1 as gateway.. Can't ping 10.0.2.15 from my host, neither can i ping 10.0.2.14 from emulator. Ping from emulator to 10.0.2.2 works fine - I can capture that ICMP traffic on the loop back interface of my host, so ICMP works, but how can i create traffic from the host to emulator? Can someone point me how to make it work? Note: firewall on my host is disabled.

And I am sure the computer running the JVM is still online.Restarting the emulator seems to fix the issue but it's been a major PITA for me as it interrupts the work flow.I am using 2.1 SDK 7.
