Android :: Load Markers Dynamically For Current Position In Android Google Maps?
Aug 5, 2010I'm currently developing an app for Android which uses google map service. Because users will be able to see thousands of markers I would like to load only those which are currently within the map bounds (i.e. when user look at specific map tile). I know how to do it with javascript/html. However, Android doesn't seem to provide any similar methods such as containsLatLng(latlng) or getBounds (I only found getLatitudeSpan and getLongitudeSpan, but don't know how can I use them in order to achieve the similar effect). Can anyone give me some hint on that?

Android :: Scale Map Markers By Zoom Factor?
Aug 19, 2010I have lot of markers on my map. Zooming in each marker shows me a position. but zooming out the markers are overlapping each other and it is more difficult do determine the position of a marker.
Is there a way to scale the marker image depending on the zoom factor?
Android : Reading From XML / Need To Create Overlay Markers On Map
Jun 27, 2010On my app I will be reading in from an XML file thats formatted something like this
<database> <db1>
<db> <name>name here</name> <street>street here</street> <long> longitude here</long> <lat> latitude here </lat> </db>
<db> <name> new name here </name> <street> new street here </street> <long> new longitude here </long> <lat> new latitude here </latitude> </db>
</db1> </database>
With this information I need to create Overlay Markers on the map (using latitude and longitude) and when they're clicked on I need it to display the name with the address. Depending on the conditions of where the map is, the number of markers will be different so I need a dynamic model for reading in these markers.
If I were to use Document methods like getElementById(String name) then I couldn't call getElementById("name") because it would likely try to call just the first <name></name> or give an unintended result.
Android :: Load Only Markers That Would Be Displayed On Current Screen?

General :: Video Player - Track Seekbar Scrub Past Markers?
May 11, 2012I am currently working on a video player using the VideoView and I am controlling it with the MediaController.
The first thing I would like to do is to be able to place markers along the seekbar, such as 25% of the clip. I want to fire an event when this mark is hit or scrubbed past. Throwing an event when this marker is hit with the video playing regularly will be easy because I should be able to just use getCurrentPosition and checking to see if it is 25% of the total clip. The issue I am having is how to fire the event if the user scrubs past the 25% point.
The second thing I am trying to do is just show a visual marker along the seekbar that I can display a marker, lets say at the 25% point, 50% point, etc.
Android :: Custom Map Markers And Custom Backgrounds
Mar 1, 2010I am trying to get the images to have transparent backgrounds so the map is not blocked by a square marker with an image in it. What image editor and what settings should I use to get this to work?
I am trying to do some custom backgrounds for buttons and the same problem comes up: I get square corners and a background that does not scale with the buttons.
I think this all part of the same problem: I am not using the right tool with the right settings to create the images. I must be misinterpreting the documentation and examples that talk about a white border around the image and a black line along the top and left side for the expandable button background.
Here's a quick way to reproduce the problem:
Follow the directions to create the MapView program as described on:
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.html
For the icon I first used the image copied from the page:
Next I edited the picture in Microsoft Paint, and cut off the little guy's antennae. I'm not cruel and no real androids were harmed in that experiment. I surrounded the new picture with a pixel thick border of white, copied from the border that was around the rest of the image, and then copied the black that was there as well in the void areas of the image, outside the border.
I saved the image as myandroid.png and copied the file to the layout folder. Pointed the activity to the new pic and ran the program.
The image was displayed with a full square background and shadow, not the android shaped image and shadow that was there when the original image was used.
Custom Button background:
Follow the directions for the Relative Layout example at:
[url]
Next, I created an image to expand as a background for the button called backbutton.png. It too is surrounded by a white border and black filled on the corners, the top and one side per documentation I found in "Android Programming Tutorials" on page 298.
The background does not expand, nor do the corners round.
I wish I could show you screenies of what I have.
How do you create the images for the custom backgrounds and the images for the custom map markers and buttons? I need to know what image editor to use and the file attributes to set, so the images expand and display with the proper void spaces in them.
Android :: Google Support Number For Droid's Sent To Developers From Google?
Jun 23, 2010A few months ago Google sent top market developers a feww phone (Droid or Nexus).I was one of them and received a Droid.I just now called in to activate the Droid on my Verizon account and was told that it is not activated.They said that the ESN number is tied to a business account and currently active.Verizon said the only thing I can do is to contact Google, who sent me the phone, and work it out with them.The paperwork with the phone came with no numbers or email addresses.I have tried calling the Nexus support line, they could not direct me anywhere. I have tried emailing the automated robots that sent me emails about the phone.Is there anyone at Google that I can contact that would be able to help with this?

I'm not sure who the attorneys for Verizon are, but Google must have done some deft negotiations to be able to pull this off. They just shafted Motorala, Verizon - and us - in the butt. I'm pretty sure, post Christmas, Droid updates and fixes will become non-existent as Google focuses on their own offering. Google is indeed Microsoft with a crayola logo.

May 16, 2010I have searched around for an answer to these two issues, but haven't been able to find anything. After doing the manual upgrade to 2.1 OTA, most everything is fine. However, Google Voice and Google Listen are having issues. Google Voice is giving me a Force Close message every time I receive a text message in Hand cent SMS (to my non-GV number). I don't actually use GV on my voice all that often. Google Listen seems to have lost all trace of any of my pod casts, including new ones that have come in since the update. Every episode on every pod cast has, just under the title: "Error (sd card/com.goggle.android.apps.listen/downloads/e55bee71)" The string of letters and numbers on each one is different. I used Astor File Manager to look in this folder and each of those files is not there. Some of these folders were downloaded a month ago (I'm a little slow in getting to some pod casts) and some I have listened to already pre update but still getting the error now. Some that I have listened to are not giving the error. And any that were downloaded after the update are giving the error.

Is there an a Google Latitude application that I should have or do I access everything through Google Maps? When I go the www.google.com/latitude on my G1, it offers me the option of "launching" Latitude but it just takes me to Google Maps. From there, I cannot see the locations of my Google "friends" (who have agreed to show location), neither does my own location show up on the Latitude homepage on the web (I have settings turned to "detect my location automatically").
