I'm just using the build in email app for my hotmail, gmail, work mail etc. However It keeps bringing up old messages that I leave in my inbox. How can I get it to not keep displaying these? Or better yet is there a killer app out there that does email/contacts better? I hate having to use the whole gmail thing.

If i can do the following with regards to the email accounts on my desire:
1) have the exchange email client update the folders i've got setup (i have rules on my work account sending items to various folders depending on subject/sender etc and they don't seem to update automatically.
2) using the gmail app it doesn't seem to update automatically (or even on a schedule as i cant find one for it).
I want is to automatically compose an e-mail with a subject line, recipient address and an image attachment, and an e-mail app should then pop up with this automatically composed message, to let the user decide whether to send, edit or discard the message.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have done many of reverse engineering for other electronics in the past, Since Im new to android I was wondering before even wasting my time if is possible to port, or built a rom from sources or a phone thatis NOT External SD built in to a phone that it have the external sd built in.
Making it short can I try to reverse engineer the android code from a Nexus 5 (no ext_sd) to other device that have ext_sd built in?
If is possible where should I be looking to start trying making some development on this as I haven't done nothing close quite.
I am running cts test cases on eclair . I've done with : . build/envsetup.sh; lunch 1; make cts
That compiled my all cts test cases. Apk's for that all have been installed in $(ANDROID_BUILD_TOP)/out/target/product/generic/data/app :
few of these are : CtsDatabaseTestCases.apk , ApiDemos.apk etc.
Now I start my emulator :: ./emulator &
I "adb push " to all apk's to my emulator .
Now my query is how to run these apk's on device /emulator ?
Can anyone point me to a good example where a AsyncTask queries a local SQLite database and then updates the UI successfully. I have a database which I query using doInBackground... create a new custom SimpleCursorAdapter (overriding onViewBind), return the adapter (SimpleCursorAdapter), then in postExecute() create ListView adapter which is set to the the SimpleCursorAdapter, that was returned, then I set the listview adapter using SetAdapter(adapter);...
For some reason I throw an exception on fillWindow.java:200....
I start a long-running SQL SELECT query and, before it finishes, wish to make a short-running SQL SELECT query. Both queries are on the same tables. The whole database can be considered read-only. My initial tests show that the short-running query only actually starts when the long-running query has finished.

Is there a specific service generating these queries?

but I am facing some doubts and confusions about is, since I am totally new to Mobile App Development:-
I am listing my queries here-
1.) I wish to put various items in a single element of a ListView. Like one image in the left, so many TextViews in a single element, and more things. Is it possible?
2.) I wish to give my text different colors, different sizes, and different fonts. how to do this?
3.) I wish to insert or delete elements from a List in ListView. How to do that?
4.) I wish to change the background color of my list. how to do this?
There is a user input then on submit pass the search keywords to the db server and return the results (the db server has to be external by the way). Could i pass the search query to server side (php) and get the php script to execute the queries and return the scripts output?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHas anyone other than me needed to make consecutive queries to a sqlitedatabase? My application works sometimes but other times (about 98% of the time), the app will crash. What I'm doing is using the sqlitedatabase.query(..) to return a cursor which I parse, I make multiple successive queries to the database and parse different recordsets/cursors.
My question would be does a sqlitedatabase need to recover or clean up after a .query is issued?
I am using sqlite db in my app. i am able to create db and table and execute queries. But I wanted to know where is the sqlitedb created, so that I can check them from commandine. where doed that android store ? I searched, could not find anything on that name in my pc, does android encrypt the name of the db file ?
View 11 Replies View RelatedA couple of questions. First thing I was wondering is where to log bugs in the docs. The ContentProvider query() docs are missing selectionArgs in the example code. It also uses the deprecated addId instead of ContentUris.withAppendedId().
With regards to the selection options - how exactly can these handle? I've seen a couple of places where a something + "='" + somevalue "'" is used, but I'm specifically wondering if it can handle IN clauses or if there's some form of or statement I can use to check for a variety of values in a particular column rather than just the one.
Last question is about the Contacts PERSON_ID and how long-lived that is. It is guaranteed to never change (though may be removed obviously). Well not truly guaranteed but will only cycle after it runs out of unused integers. Or may they change value as contacts are removed?
have an activity handling search (ACTIVITY_1), which works perfectly when I use the search (via SEARCH button on the phone) within/from this activity. However, when I use search from another activity (ACTIVITY_2..x) by implementing onNewIntent and forward the query string to my Search_Activity.class (ACTIVITY_1) it always pauses ACTIVITY_2 first and then goes to onCreate() of ACTIVITY_2..................

1- I have Desire with Froyo. So, technically whenever I install an app, I should be given an option to install it on SD card. But so far, haven't seen it yet, consequently today I got a message that phone memory is running low. So, please help me out.
2- Secondly, last night due to some reason I opened navigation first time and there came two pop-ups asking me for some settings. I ticked them and then a satellite logo appeared on top bar. Does it consume a lot of battery?
3- So far I have set many applications on automatic updates but I have observed that I have to always update them manually. They don't get updated automatically.
Well I bought my Galaxy here in India yesterday, and you all and this forum has been a major source of info to make up my mind.
Well I've bee browsing this forum trying to understand all that I need to know for the past two days before I could muster the courage to ask a couple of questions.
1) My Galaxy is on Firmware II3, is it worth upgrading to IK5 ?
2) When I upgrade, does everything, contact, apps etc, get wiped of from the device or do they remain as they are ?
3) Is there a way I can take a complete backup of my contacts, apps etc and restore them after a firmware update ?
My phone has not been rooted yet and I plan to use ODIN for updating the firmware.
My wife has been playing with her new phone and needs some help with contact management.1, How can she keep the telephone contacts separated from her facebook contacts. Currently when she presses the phone button from her home page it seems to show all contacts. However when she goes to HTC People it is set to only show phone contacts not facebook contacts. 2, When you have facebook contacts how do you delete them? Do you have to remove them as a friend?I've changed my phone number on my facebook profile but it still shows on my wife's desire as my old number. She's tried removing me as a friend and re-adding me and it's still wrong.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI went through many threads regarding XT530. links are URL>....the first thread is said to be root XT530 (2.3.5 based) but the title goes for XT316(2.3.4). So i am a bit worried if thats alright or i got wrongly redirected over there. Moreover, the links for the files weren't working, so i need links for the files needed (like Google GMS pack).
the second thread says it will root the current android version, but i need to ask if that would install Google GMS services automatically or i need to download that pack externally.

We are plannig to write a new music application from scratch. Also we want to uninstall the built-in music application to ensure only our application resides on the phone. adb ls /data/app command doesn't list built-in applications. So, I am unable to uninstall the built in music application without knowing its name. So, I am getting a feeling like built in applications uninstallation is handled in different way.

After disable adb and fastboot from make_windows_sdk.sh, I counld get the sdk zip file 4.

Anyone has tried to build sdk in cygwin as well? Would you pls share the methods to fix the problems above?
Has anyone built OpenAL for the Android, or found the shared library for it on the system? This seems like an obvious need for a game of any kind, yet there's no resources out there for it. It seems the Android java sound library can't do pitch changes from what I can tell, so there seems a need for OpenAL. I know OpenAL Soft can be built on top of ALSA, but I'm not sure if anyones done that, and I'm sure it would take me a month.
If there's a good guide somewhere on sound manipulation on the Android without OpenAL, that's fine too. It's just that OpenAL is sort of a standard for game makers and it would be nice to port my thousands of lines over to this system, which I sort of thought was the point of the NDK before I dugg into it and saw that there's almost no shared library access on the system.I hope I can actually port without becoming a java expert myself. Really disliking the NDK so far!

I want to be able to open a pdf file in my app using the android's built in pdf viewer app, but i dont know how to start other apps. I'm sure i have to call start activity, i just dont know how to identify the app im opening and how to pass the file to that specific app.I just learned that the pdf viewer i have on my phone is actually made by HTC and that Adobe just barely released their android pdf viewer (which is great). So the new question is this: how do i verify that the user has installed adobe's viewer, and then how do i open the file in that app from my app?
