I saw a few market apps that claim to block sms/calls. Reviews on all were mixed good & bad. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with any or had a suggestion for an app to stop this madness.
Also curious if anyone knows how they actually block. Basically I want to know if I just don't get a notification, or it just doesn't show in messaging app/handcent, or if it really gets blocked - as in not actually sent to me and does not charge me for a text.
If all they do is stop the notification I can just use settings profiles for that. But I'd really like to not have them be charged to me. I am on a 250/month plan and might risk going over at the rate they're being sent.
Hey guys, i am developing an application, and suddently, working with XML, designing a menu, appear this error and now, apparently everything is ok, but i can not run the application.
That was the message from Console: [2010-04-24 21:45:11 - DroidWallet] W/ResourceType( 3148): Bad XML block: header size 2370 or total size 0 is larger than data size 0
I want to block calls from few numbers, for that I want to write a app of my own. So what are the APIs which I should be using? Basically I want to get notified when a call comes, i want to compare numbers if it is what i want to block, i want to cut the call or mute it or if possible mute it and record it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have to process some events given by a broadcast receiver. As kindly suggested by Mark M. a week ago, I am trying to send the intent to an intentservice in order to pass the data to be processed to another thread.
Looking at the doc, I can read abot onHandleIntent: "Only one Intent is processed at a time, but the processing happens on a worker thread that runs independently from other application logic. So, if this code takes a long time, it will hold up other requests to the same IntentService, but it will not hold up anything else.
What does it mean? Will the intents be queued and then processed one by one, or does it mean that the startService will block if the intentService is busy processing a previous intent?
And more (this is just my curiosity): What is the point in having a onStartCommand method in IntentService if the Intents must be processed in "onHandleIntent"?
We need to block ALL numbers incoming and outgoing (calls and texts) from a cell phone (of a teenager) with the exception of a few numbers. All applications we have researched block only certain numbers where we need to allow only a few telephone numbers to text or call incoming or outgoing from this cell phone.

I know you can make them load on demand or, using Dolphin HQ, block some aspects of them using Ad block, but I was wondering if there was any way of blocking them outright. Please excuse me for not searching the forums very thoroughly before posting; the forum's search function isn't very mobile friendly.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've had my G1 for about a week and am still exploring all its possibilities. I've searched around on this forum and can't find anything regarding this. I have it set up to check my email once an hour to save on battery (not gmail, my Comcast account. I wasn't ready to sell my soul completely to Google just to use this phone!) I work on my computer all day and naturally read emails on the PC as they come in, and it's kind of annoying when 45 minutes later the G1 notifies me of an email that I've already read. Is there an app that will let you configure the phone to only retrieve unread emails? I've searched superficially in the phone but the menus seem pretty general and not able to do this.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSome of the sites I visit have what I believe to be flash overlays on them. They are usually things like "tell us about your experience on our site" or the like. Not really ads, but they often don't scale right and jump off the screen when I zoom in to dismiss them. Is there an app that can block these, without disabling flash? WebMD is an example of a site that does this, after you load a few of their pages. Theirs stays put, but is an example of the feature.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm having a lot of trouble trying to download gpx files on my htc desire. Several sites which hold these files seem to use something called index.php to get the download started and the phone simply says can't open this file. This seems pretty basic so am I missing something, did the developers deliberately not support this or is it just very hard to do on this sort of platform?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to add a transparent panel (relativelayout) with fill_parent in width and height.
I want to use this "glasspane" in order to block all buttons underneath. Unfortunately I cannot find the right setter / xml attribute for this.
These wont work:
.setEnabled(false); .setPressed(false); .setClickable(false); .setFocusable(false); .setSaveEnabled(false); .setSelected(false);
Maybe its better to understand if I tell you that I want to create my own dialog without extending the class Dialog.
A dialog also puts a transparent glasspane above all and absorbs all clicks underneath...
What is the efficient way of blocking on the socket for data after opening it.The method i used is to call read on input stream (this is a blocking call that waits till some data written to this socket).
//Socket creation
SocketForCommunication = new Socket();
InetSocketAddress sAddr = new InetSocketAddress("hostName", 8800);
SocketForCommunication.connect(sAddr,10000);
is = new DataInputStream(SocketForCommunication.getInputStream());
os = new DataOutputStream(SocketForCommunication.getOutputStream());
//Waiting on socket using read method for data
while(true)
{
int data = is.read();
if(data == HEADER_START)
{
processPackage(is);}}
Here problem is read can timeout.Is there a way to register a callback that gets called when data available to read on socket.?

The only logic I could see behind this is that a Hulu Plus app is coming to the Android market, but I haven't heard anything about that.What's your take on this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a ListView with an adapter attached. In the individual list items are placed views with widgets that continually update themselves within the list. Everything works well except for this case: Touch the list and start scrolling it just before the longTouch event would be thrown. Then lift your finger from the ListView. At this point the widget views in the ListView no longer receive onDraw events in response to the invalidate calls that continue to be made on the ListView. It is like the ListView starting blocking the invalidate calls during the scroll and forgot to re-allow them when the scrolling stopped. If I touch and scroll with out holding or scroll with a fling this does not happen. The ListView will start allowing the onDraw events back through if you touch anywhere in the list. Any ideas on how to help the ListView not block those onDraw calls?
