I'm trying to get my feet wet with Android development. I downloaded Eclipse, and setup the ADT. When I create a project from existing source, I choose the demo projects (API Demo) and compile + run. The simulator pops up but I can't seem to find the API Demo application. How can I get this up and running?

What is "window.demo.clickOnAndroid()"? I know that clickOnAndroid is a method in my Android application. But what is window and demo? My file is called demo.html. Is that it?
Just found this on the site. If you are new to android I would suggest playing around with it.

Suppose I wanted to design a cheap little app which lets you schedule fake phone calls to yourself, along similar lines as this app:
http://magictap.net/fakecalls/
I'd imagine using an AlarmManager would be suitable for this purpose, the question is how to generate a fake incoming call screen, complete with the slide to answer call option. My initial approach, the AlarmManager should launch a PendingIntent. However, I'm not sure where to go from here, in particular to get an Activity started which displays the fake call screen.
After a round of hassle (many thanks to sontaikle), finally i managed to do some screen capture from my Android but right now I am thinking about this. Is there any way I can do a REAL TIME phone simulation on my PC. Its alike TV output from phone to projector (Galaxy S can do that) but I have other Android which have no TV output function from the phone, so I wonder if I connect the phone to PC and get the real time screen output (few second lagging is ok for me as well) to PC than I can project it out via projector during discussion, presentation. I have tried this Emulator, too bad its doesn't project that on the phone on PC. How to install Android SDK and play with Android 2.0 in the emulator - Android and Me
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering where files that are created while running in a simulator are stored. I'm running the 1.5 simulator on Windows Vista. The real reason I want to find the files is because I am downloading an png file and trying to create a bitmap via:
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(iconFile.getAbsolutePath());
However, the bitmap is always null. I am able to create a bitmap successfully if I have the file as a resource.
I am using the default simulator, Can I make simulator identical to some common device I mean one identical to HTC, one identical to droid motorla, one of samsung, dell, acer,..etc Here identical I mean all the features that it provide.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI had thought that the "Lite" version of SlideIT was nagware -- that you could use it for free as long as you were willing to put up with occasional interrupts by a pop-up asking you to buy the full version. That turns out not to be the case: the "Lite" version is actually a "demo" version that stops working after a while (apparently a week, if I have my dates straight).
Apart from the fact that it's deceptive advertising to promote a time-limited demo as a "Lite" version, the full version is still not available for purchase in the market.
I am studying RemoteService example in Android's APISample. In the manifest file, it declares the service like this: My question is how can I specify the service to be 'auto-start', i.e. it gets start whenever the phone start?
<service android:name=".app.RemoteService" android:process=":remote" >
<intent-filter>
<!-- These are the interfaces supported by the service, which
you can bind to. -->
<action

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have created what I believe is a relatively useful color picker, derived and massively extended from the ColorPickDialog example in the API Demos. If anyone would like to try it out, it is available on the Market at Applications/Tools/UberColorPicker Demo". It didn't put it in the Demo section because it isn't a demo in the sense of being a free teaser of a nonfree product, if you see my meaning. If you like it, you can download the source from http://keithwiley.com/Downloads/AndroidUberColorPickerDemo.zip. Feel free to drop it -- ready-to-go and unmodified - into your own apps (I use it for setting text color preferences in Shead Spreet)...or to hack, extend, and change it however you see fit.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to perform live demos of an app I've been working at conferences. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to get a video feed of what's going on onscreen onto a big screen. We've hooked up the screen capture utility of DDMS and keep hitting refresh. Its not ideal. I'm aware that there are more automatic solutions that continuously cause a refresh, but these don't really provide video, and I'd also like an audio feed. I can frame grab within my app pro grammatically, but the Android SDK's video encoder only supports capturing video feed from the camera. Any ideas? What's the best way to live demo Android apps to large audiences?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis comes up because I am changing the model for my freed and paid apps. Besides all the other things I need to figure out to build this (I'm trying the library method), I'd like to transfer preferences smoothly from DEMO app to paid App. I'm sure that some of you are old hands at this and can give some advice. I've tried the Demo and License, where a license app will unlock the Demo app and make it full.
The Market users can't handle that. My customers didn't want to have two app icons once they installed the license. So I made it invisible. Now I have users that say they can't "open" the license after purchase. It states very clearly in the app description that they need to install the free version first, but I've discovered that not everyone reads that vast 325 character description before buying even some of the most expensive apps on the Market.
I've decided not to fight it. I do believe that customers will be more happy overall and there will be less refunds, if they do try the demo app first. It gives them 16 days to try instead of 24 hours to get a refund. But I'm not going to force that. So, I'll be going down the Demo and Full model route. Just as an aside, I really wish the market would support time limited trials. There is difference between real support and faking it as I have been.
What is the recommended way of creating a demo version for an application. Basically, the demo version will be fully functional, but will be limited to running it 25 times. My worry is that if the user uninstalls and reinstalls, the count will be reset. I thought about writing a data file to the SD Card with the count of executions (hoping that would persist after uninstall), but I do not want to add that permission if I can avoid it. Any suggestions on how to have some type of demo flag persist after an uninstall?
