I've got an Android app developed, and I'm at the point of a phone app development where everything seems to be working well and you want to declare victory and ship, but you know there just have to be some memory and resource leaks in there; and there's only 16mb of heap on the Android and its apparently surprisingly easy to leak in an Android app.
I've been looking around and so far have only been able to dig up info on 'hprof' and 'traceview' and neither gets a lot of favorable reviews.
What tools or methods have you come across or developed and care to share maybe in an OS project?
I can't get Oauth to work with Twitter. I have tried the following (all result in the same 401 error):
CODE:.......................
I've tried my own implementation and copy/pasted the sample code from each of the sites, and nothing seems to work. I'm also 100% sure I also downloaded and included any dependencies (where needed).
Here's the interesting part. Using jTwitter and the oauth-signpost library, I can initiate a connection to Twitter, open a browser window for the user, have them log-in and generate a PIN for my app. When the app goes to post a status update however, (using the pin, and the stored access token and token secret), the 401 error pops up. All other things I've tried won't even let me open a browser window and ask the user to generate a PIN (they die with the 401 error on the request for the "request token").

I am trying to use the Wifimanager to calculate the Signal Level of the access points found during a scan.
I am using the following method:
WifiManager.calculateSignalLevel(int, int)
But it appears to always return the same int no matter what the RSSI level is.
Here is my code:.............
The logging outputs 1 for all the test cases for calculateQoS(int).
Am I missing something simple here? Why is the SignalLevel always 1?
I'm looking at how Android supports wifi portable hot spot functionality with a view to writing simple home screen widget that allows people to turn the phone's wifi hotspot on and off without digging into the device settings.
There was nothing obvious at developer.android.com so I dug through my copy of the Android source code and found that the WifiManager class (android.net.wifi.WifiManager) provides the basics to allow the state to be queried. So as well as 'getWifiState()' there is 'getWifiApState()' and a matching set of state constants.
However, in my bang-up-to-date Eclipse IDE, this class has none of the Ap methods or constants. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I have written a number of applications for blackberry and am just starting in Android. It seems to me that android has a lot more built in functions. I am starting by recreating some of my BB apps on Android and on one I take a few xml sites and parse them out. On blackberry I implemented this by creating a class that extended a thread. I would construct a new instance of this class with the parameters of my http request and it would call a function back in my main class, sending it the results. I am tempted to reuse my code, but am curious if android has something better built in. I have been looking at the handler class as well as possible using a service.
Bascially, I would like to start a new thread that will return a document of a specific url.
I have two applications A and B (in different packages,but it doesn't matter).Application B is an sms application that i have made and contains one activity.This activity has a method called sendSMS(String number,String text).I want to call this method from application A and send an SMS without opening the activity(the GUI) of application B but just send an SMS in the background by calling just the method of the activity.Any ideas?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I'm writing an Android app which uses a large c++ library. I have everything working so that the java app can call the c++ delegation methods, but I'm finding myself wishing I could log messages from c++ to the Android log. This is easy from java, but I'm at a loss as to how to call a java method from c++. My searches found methods for opening a jvm from c++, which is not at all what I want to do. Ideally, I'd like to pass a log method pointer to c++, which could then be used whenever I wanted. Of course, java doesn't support method pointers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a MapView where I would like to be able to tap the map to create a new item at that location if there is no item there, or display the info about the item if there is.
I tried overriding both the onTap(int) and onTap(GeoPoint, MapView) methods but apparently if the second method is overridden the first never gets called (commenting one or the other lets each one work as I expected).
I thought about just checking if an item was at the location, but there doesn't seem to be any handy methods available to do that (other than iterating through the list of items and checking each manually).
I know rule #1 of optimization is: don't do it! But I figured this was an easy question, and if I start using the faster method now I can save a lot of cpu time when I'm finished.Now, the answer to my question may be "there's no difference" and that's fine with me. I just want to know.

Need help closing/accessing my views in a simple app (included an img of my program layout) but I might have been too confusing. Basically, I have an app that has a main menu where the user can click a button to open a camera. The user then snaps a photo and it is displayed on a page. The user will then click another button that detects faces. If faces are detected, the user is sent to a final page that shows the cropped face, etc. I give the user the ability to return to the main menu or snap a new photo.
Let's say a new photo is snapped and the user does it a few more times. Now I have multiple saved instances of old snapped photos (presented on the layout). How do I kill the previous instance (the layout from before he decided to snap a new photo)? So when I try to close the app it doesn't go back to the previous instance (displayed layout of said snapped photo). I am so confused on this one thing.
I have an Java class with a static final method getAll:
CODE:..............
Now I want to hand in null as a value for the where statemant so that it will just be ignored later on in the code. Anyway in the testcase for this method I have: Vector<Category> categories = Category.getAll(context, null);
Which then in turn gives me a NoSuchMethodError. I don't know exactly why it does that. The only thing I could imagine is that the null I hand in would not match the signature of the above method. But how can I overcome this? I already thought of overloading. But this would just end in rewriting most of the code. At least when I do it, how I think.
This is the stack trace I get:

I'm trying to use the Point class from android.graphics, but it appears that all the methods are stubs.
For example, the line Point p = new Point(1, 1); causes java.lang.RuntimeException: Stub!.

What's the deal here? Surely they didn't ship a class that's 100% stubs.
The Canvas class does not take Shape as a parameter for any of its methods. There is no drawShape or clipShape, etc... So, I need to use Path instead. Does android sdk expose any way to convert Shape to Path or Path to shape? I haven't been able to find relationship any between the 2 classes...?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have some information stored as SharedPreferences. I need to access that information from outsite an Activity (in from a domain model class). So I created a static method in an Activity which I only use to get the shared preferences. This is giving me some problems, since apparently it is not possible to call the method "getSharedPreferences" from a static method. Here's the message eclipse is giving me:
Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method
getSharedPreferences(String, int) from the type ContextWrapper
I tried to work around this by using an Activity instance, like this:
public static SharedPreferences getSharedPreferences () {
Activity act = new Activity();
return act.getSharedPreferences("FILE", 0);
}
This code gives a null point exception. Is there a work-around? Am I going into an android-code-smell by trying to do this?
