Android :: Droid Eclipse Resource Strings Error / Alter XML File (like Suggested In Tutorials)?
Sep 6, 2010When I make a new android project and I go to res/values/string.xml I get a screen to add android resources instead of a XML document. I keeps getting the error about : java.lang.NullPointerException.

Oct 3, 2010I'm sure this is simple, but I've got myself confused over it.I have an image resource, such as R.drawable.myimage, and I want to convert this into a URI.I tried:
Uri selectedImage = Uri.parse("android.resource://com.my.package/" + resourceId);
but this just returns a NullPointer. The resourceId needs to be dynamic (so I can pass any image to it), not just a hardcoded "myImage".Any help please?
Android :: Using Resource Values As Layout Attributes - Config.xml
Mar 28, 2010Looking in the android sdk folders, I've found a file called values/config.xml. This seems to be somewhere that you can define values for later use in layouts and animations.
Given the config.xml:
<resources>
<string name="config_somePadding">50dip</string>
</resources>
How would I reference this to use as the layout_height in a layout xml file?
@string/config_somePadding is actually the only one I've found that doesn't throw an error in Eclipse (even though there isn't a config_somePadding in values/strings.xml), but it appears to just put an empty string.
In the sdk, they use an integer for animation duration. They reference it like this: android:duration="@android:integer/config_longAnimTime". Is there a way to use values that aren't integers in the layout_height attribute?
Android :: String Resource ID Values Guaranteed To Be Consistent Over Different Projects
Jun 7, 2010I have some messages being passed back from my server through php. The problem is that the messages are in English and if the user is using another language they will still get the message in English.
So I had an idea that maybe instead of passing back the message I would instead pass the String resource Id from the android app, that way the app will get the correct string id for their language. I will use this in a number of apps so I just want to know if the string id is guaranteed to be the same across different android projects?

Android : Specifying LinearLayout Orientation In Resource "values"
Apr 20, 2010I have a linear layout where the orientation needs to be "horizontal" in portrait mode and "vertical" in landscape mode.
There are a few ways to do this, the most obvious of which being to specify two layouts: one in "layout" and one in "layout-land".
However, this will require a certain amount of duplicate XML. I know you can use <include> to minimize this, but at the very least the attributes of the LinearLayout tag will need to be duplicated and two extra XML files need to be created (one layout-land file and one include for the contents of that layout).
As an alternative I do this in the LinearLayout tag:
android:orientation="@string/custom_lang_orientation"
and then: values/strings.xml <string name="custom_lang_orientation">0</string>
values/strings-land.xml <string name="custom_lang_orientation">1</ string>
which is a hack. Its also a bit risky because of the assumption the integer values for horizontal/vertical will not change. However, I suppose this is extremely unlikely. Any thoughts?

Aug 3, 2010I have an XML resource file:
<resources> <section>
<category value="1" resourceId="@xml/categoryData1" />
<category value="2" resourceId="@xml/categoryData2" />
<category value="3" resourceId="@xml/categoryData3" />

Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?
Android :: Update / Alter Preferences Dynamicaly
May 1, 2010I have tried to find a way to update the Android Preferences dynamically. Under the /res/xml directory I have placed a XML file with CheckBoxPreference elements. During application usage some of the preferences CheckBoxPreference elements may vary in numbers. Sometimes there may be 10 items and at other times there may be 35. I have tried to place the XML file in the /assets diectory (where read and write is possible) and then tried to replace the R.xml.<XMLFileName> in the addPreferenceFromResource(R.xml.<XMLFileName>) with the Assets file - but that won't work.
Is it in anyway possible to write to, during runtime programmatically, the XML files placed in the /res directory - and if - how do we do that? Is it possible - programmatically - to create and delete the entries in the preferences - thereby omitting the XML file?
Android :: Alter MenuItem On The Options Menu?
Nov 16, 2010I have an Options Menu on my Activity with an MenuItem "Start". When this MenuItem is selected I would like to alter the Menu so it contains a MenuItem "Stop". And finally when "Stop" is selected, I would like to alter back to "Start". Here is parts of my code that isn't working. I have both "Start" and "Stop" listed in mymenu.xml I should probably remove "stop" when the menu is created:
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
private boolean isStarted = false;
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
menu.removeItem(R.id.stop);
inflater.inflate(R.menu.mymenu, menu);

Android :: ListActivity - Alter Data From SQLLite Before Putting Into Row
Dec 11, 2009@Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.my_list);
mDbHelper = new MyDbAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open();
fillData();
registerForContextMenu(getListView());....................
The date is actually stored as an int in the SQLLite database, and thus it displays as an integer. Does anyone know a way to create a date from the int so it doesn't display as 1216544611 (or whatever) but as "12/11/2009 11:32"?

Android :: Need Droid Apps That Alter Normal Phone Operations
Feb 19, 2010So i was wondering if its possible to for an application that i would write to be constantly running in the background and alter regular phone operations. For example this could be something like as soon as you receive a text from anyone you forward it automatically to another number. Is something like this at all possible? Just to be clear I don't want to solve that particular problem through some other means, just want to know if apps can accomplish that. Also if that is possible is it possible for an app that i write to alter more immediate and instant things, like an incoming call.

Jul 7, 2010I had my Desire for for a couple of months & love it but the mrs has just got a Wildfire & i have noticed when i text a message the TO box and the TAP TO COMPOSE boxes are about the same size with a big black box in between them that you cannot drag to alter size when the phone is held upright but on the Wildfire the TAP TO COMPOSE box is the is massive with a send & a attach button on the side when held upright. How do you alter this on the desire? When both phones are turned on the side the TAP TO COMPOSE box is big on both. Also the Wildfire has a torch app which uses the LED on the camera which is not on the Desire but the screen is so dull compared to my phone.

Apr 30, 2014Imagine a scenario where you have just system access on android , and you want to continually have it, so you use the su binary, with the correct permission and the setuid flag on, and the owner being system, you do:
Code:
chown 1000:1000 su2
chown 06755 su2
you have the ability to change the owner to system as you do when rooting, and you also set the appropriate permission as you do when rooting,
06775 being the permission code to all have execution permission, and the setuid flag on.
But when dealing with system permission that doesn't work. it only works with root.

Apr 6, 2010That's a lot of code... no time to read it over now.. but off the top of my head: look into either using a database, an Application class (that will run the whole time your app is alive), or adding extras to the Intent bundle before starting your subactivity. These are all methods to pass data around between activities.
