Android :: Android Application Running External Code - Application
Aug 12, 2010
This is my target:
I need an Android application which should be able to fetch data from the web (maybe an .apk or a .jar) and launch "something" from it.
If it's a "trivial" class there's no problem at all. This is my Loader
CODE:.............
The problem is that the code I want to execute looks very like an application, which should have a "simple" view and some interaction on it.
I'm not able to invoke the "onCreate" method of my downloaded class.
I guess I've three streets:
I look for a method which silently install the application and then runs it (is it possible?) I understand how to initialize a second "application" inside my own one (with its own R and all stuff) I write my master program to fetch data from the web and construct pages dinamically.

My application is a trial version apk. Once the period is completed, can I initiate another application to be installed/downloaded from the android market ( purchasing process) which is a paid application using the current running trail application.

I have a project that builds against Android v2.1 . I can run it fine on a phone running 1.5 but when I try to launch it with an emulator running 1.5, the emulator doesn't show up on the list of available AVDs. I have the <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3"/> tag in my manifest but it doesn't make a difference.

I would like to launch an app the user selects from within my application. However, I'm not sure how I'd go about doing this. I've tried this:
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Contacts.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT);
startActivity(intent);
But this seems to throw an error and force close my application. I also tried adding:
<action android:name="Contacts.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT"/>
in the AndroidManifest file, but to no avail.
A look at Logcat shows that it's an "IOexception - no such file or directory". A couple of questions arise from this. I read through the Android docs and noticed that the Contact.Intents class is deprecated. However, it's successor, ContactContracts is aimed at API level 5 whereas I'm targeting API level 3. Could this be the problem? Also, I've hardcoded this application into the code. Is there a way to retrieve the intents of any application the user selects so that they can be launched?

I want to create an application that would display more lines of short text. That is all I want the application to do. For example:
line number one
line number two
line number three
line number four
line number five
Like that. I would like also to set background color. How can I do that? I would like to accomplish that using an external HTML.
I use Eclipse and SDK to develop apps and I am a complete beginner in Java.

I'm working on a Application and I would like to start or call an external application from it by pressing for example a button...on my application.
The application I would like to call is an open source application.
I've read on the official android website it is possible to do it but haven't found any suggestion on how to do it.
MY APPROACH:
So trying on my own I've used an Intent Action and a button...like this
CODE:...............
RESULT:
When the button is pressed, A window appears which invites me to complete the Action I guess by choosing one of the Listed programs such as:
-Gstr
-Import Ics
-Market
-Music
-Mail (com.htc.android.mail) and so on...but not the API I was looking for...
When I choose Gstr(I guess is the application manager) then opens another window
Which shows a list of Installed Applications. From there I find the Application I was
Looking for and starts it (by long pressing on it's Icon...)
ISSUE:
I would like to start the external Application directly by clicking on a button on my application without passing through hundreds of others... Is there a way to achieve?

I have a question about where people expect me to store my application data. I have an application where the user will enter information via the keypad, and download information (including images) from a website. Where is the proper place to save this? Internal or External Storage?

I notice that my application continues to run in the background after I hit the home or back button. I tried calling the finish() method and it still says its running. On another note, how do I setup the keyListener to respond to the user hitting the back or home button. I tried implementing OnKeyListener and using findViewById(R.Layout.main).setOnKeyListener(this) to call finish().

I want the application to run in background. This application should run continuously and should never get killed. Will running application as Service solve this issue? The application should get started automatically on start up. I don't need any GUI for this application. The main issue is Service getting Killed. Does service get killed ? and in what conditions will that happen?

I'm wanting to run a script called toggle.sh on Android. Should I be able to run this code?
CODE:.............
At the moment I can run the command from the terminal and it works but when I try to run it from the application it fails (and I don't know why - there is no USB on my Android phone to plug in the debugger).
CODE:..............
The Emulators don't have this command to run - and they are running on Windows anyway. I can't think of anything else to add to this.

I was wondering if its possible to have an application run on startup of the phone and then run permanently in the background. Also I would then like it to monitor the call log, and detect any changes and run about 15, 20 lines of code each time there is a change.

This is sort of about task managers, and yet, not. I have an application I need to stay open (meebo) but Androids's task manager closes it sometimes. I have tried using task managers to keep enough memory free that Android won't kill Meebo, but it usually gets killed eventually anyway. Does anyone have an idea on how to keep it open? I am running 2.2.
