I'm new to Android programming (and Eclipse IDE and Android emulator).I've got Hello World and some of Notepad working, but I'm still constantly getting quite a few DDMS console log messages (shown below) about not being able to bind locals for debugger.Is this a problem? Can I get rid of these messages somehow?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI published an application that stores data in a local database.
Now I have to publish an update to this application to fix some little bugs, but I am afraid that downloading and installing the update will delate the local database associated with the previous version.
I would like to know how the update system works. Will installing an update completely delete all the apk, files, databases associeted with the previous version?
If so, how can I avoid this in my code?
Is there any virtual machine to test Android? How can I debug the program for Android?

Im working on a widget, I'm using eclipse and windows vista 64 bit. I run the app in debug mode and I put a breakpoint on the context.startService line below but the app isn't stopping. My widget is displaying as expected, just showing my frame and some text saying loading.

When I am running the emulator my console gets spammed with messages like this, even when im not in debug mode. [2009-05-20 03:02:38 - ddms]Can't bind to local 8643 for debugger
Im programmign on Windows with Elcipse and a Motorola Droid. ADB will successfully download the code to the Droid and run it, but ive been unable to get debugging to work either remotely or with the emulator. (To be honest Im having multiple problems with the emulator and id rather just not have to use it.)
Does remote debugging work? If so, how would I get it working? If not, does emulator debugging work and how would I get that working?
Right now my "debugging" consists of setting the text of an onscreen text-view, but thats not a good long-term solution.
I'm trying to make an AppWidget, and for some reason the Eclipse debugger doesn't suspend on any of the breakpoints I set (but I know the code is executed because I see it working on the emulator). I don't have this problem with other 'regular' apps (non AppWidgets). Is this a known limitation, or is it just a problem on my installation?
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhenever I try to run debugger for my applications, it gets stuck on "Waiting for Debugger." It works fine on a ADP1 phone. Leaving it for a while ends up restarting the phone. I even reset the phone to factory mode and the problem persists.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was debugging away and moved my phone a bit and the debugger lost contact. I figured it was just a loose USB so I reseated the cable and attempted to restart the debugger. Now the debugger can't find my phone. I can manage the phone from DDMS without any problem so it's not a phone, cable, or driver issue. Something went wacko in the debugger setup. When I go to Run Configurations in Eclipse, the phone is simply not in the list of choices. Any ideas where I can look for what's wrong?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt seems like every step I take in the Android world I run into problems. Im soon up to 20 questions here on StackOverflow hehe =)
Usually, I have my HTC Hero connected to the computer via USB and I launch the application either in debug mode or in normal mode.
So, the last time I ran the app in normal mode. Then I disconnect the device (I want to try to have it "free", not connected to computer) and I start the app from the menu. When I do that I get a popup saying "Application xxx is waiting for the debugger to attach" and there it stops and eventually dies.
Why is it waiting for the debugger, when the last time I ran the app (while connected) I didnt run it as Debug?

It seems that DDMS does not accept that a debugger in another host connects to it (a scenario where host A has the Emulator and DDMS running, and host B has the debugger). It appears that DDMS is binding to the loopback address. Does anyone know if that is intentional ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how to get the debugger to launch on an ADP1?. It was recently flashed to 1.5. Dev platform is Eclipse on Windows XP with the SDK 1.5 USB driver installed (HTC Dream Composite Interface). Windows can see the device and adb can see the device with "adb devices" command. USB Debugging has been enabled on the device and the application manifest has android:debuggable="true" set in it. The LogCat windows is showing log output from the ADP1 too.
But when Selecting Run->Debug or Run->Run the avd is always launched. The instructions say that it should launch to the device or give a choice if the avd is running too.
Do anyone know what needs to be done to get the debugger to launch against the real device instead of the avd?
is it possible somehow to bind to private system services? What I want to do is listen to the activitymanagerservice and be notified when other activites are started. I tried implementing the IActivityController.aidl from the Sourcecode. It has methods like activityStarting and activityResuming but this didn't really work. (I used the idea from here: http://blog.codetastrophe.com/2008/12/accessing-hidden-system-service... , problem is there is no proper private field one could use at least c.getDeclaredFields() doesn't return anything useful from the activity manager)
Any ideas how I can get notified of things going on in the Activity Manager without having to do a getRunningTasks all the time? Because this is the only workaround I came up with but it slows down the phone.

i get an error message like 09-30 20:08:24.733: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(949): Caused by: android.content.ReceiverCallNotAllowedException: IntentReceiver components are not allowed to bind to services 09-30 20:08:24.733: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(949): at android.app.ReceiverRestrictedContext.bindService (ApplicationContext.java:136) so i guess you can't bind to a service in an AppWidgetProvider - although you can start the service just fine?

I already check 'RunningServiceInfo()' but I couldn't find.
Assuming I didn't start in debug mode, is there a way to make the eclipse debugger automatically start if my app throws an exception inside the emulator?
Alternatively, is there a way to get a more useful error message out of the emulator (something more useful than "Sorry, your app terminated unexpectedly").
Is possible to uninstall factory apps with root access.But, ADB have 'root' command that give root access to the terminal what you are in, so, in this case, factory apps can be uninstalled by androig debugger with root acces?
like:

View 3 Replies View RelatedTwo activities here, A and B. A is main, B is PreferenceActivity with two EditTextPreference.
I want to be able to access the preferences generated by B from activity A, and for that I need of course (I guess) getSharedPreferences on A. But in order to do that I need to supply the preference file for the activity that generated it. This is tedious (long names), erratic at best (depends on the activity that generated it), and finally it's a mess, because it's much better to keep everything under one xml file, with a name that is well known to all my activities. And besides, if I have 100 activities, how would I keep track of preference files anyway...
So the point is: how do I "bind" an EditTextPreference in a way that the changes are made to a given preference file, not the one automatically generated by Android?
I've literally spent 15+ hours trying to figure out this one bug (when I should be studying for finals). Any help is greatly appreciated. The bug appears on the dev1 phone running cupcake. It was not present before the upgrade. Basically, the problem is that when a activity with a webview and 2 threads is run, the service that runs after it will always crashes the process (but it works fine when the debugger is attached). The worst part is that it crashes at arbitrarily places in the service, so I can't isolate the error.
The details:
I have an activity with a WebView. The activity executes two threads, one after the other using the basic new Thread(new Runnable() {public void run()... Both threads use the same handler to report back results to the main activity. Flow works like this: when the activity starts, the first thread gets data to construct the URL that the webview will load (using DefaultHTTPClient). Then when the user navigates to a certain page, the second thread is again fired (using DefaultHTTPClient) to get some xml. This works fine.
The problem happens right afterwards. Once the activity with the webview finishes (it calls finish on itself), a service is started that has a thread that using DefaultHttpClient to downloaded some xml, process it, etc. The service crashes at arbitrary points with no error messages, simply displaying a memory dump, and kills the main process with it. When I attempt to debug the process, it runs just fine w/ no crashes. I've repeated this at least 30 times, with the same result. (no crash w/ debugger, crash when installing signed apk file to device and running it).
The program doesn't crash when the threads are removed from the activity with webview. So even if the webview activity runs (but all threads are removed), the service runs just fine regardless of the debugger.
Here is how my threads start (both of the ones in the activity with the webview, and the main thread in the service that is launched afterwards):

I'm new to Android development and am working on a small test project. I have a service, which communicates with an SQLite3 database, and two activities. A main activity which fetches database information via the service and displays it and a second activity which allows me to add data to the database via the service.
Currently, I have a singleton class which implements the ServiceConnection interface and I'm binding this to the service in the the main activity using the bindService function. Because it's a singleton, I can then use this service connection in both the main activity and second activity to work with the database and it all seems to work quite well.
However, I'm all the time aware that the service connection is bound to the main activity and I'm wondering if this is the wrong/bad way to do it? Would I be best off having two service connections, one in each activity, and binding each to the service?
I have coded this service, that computes stuff and i want other applications to be able to bind this service, i.e. i want to enable other programmers to communicate with this service. problem is, this has to work without these other programmers to get access to the source code. just the (installed) apk with the remote service is given (and of course a detailed description of the service' interface)...problem is, eclipse keeps braggin' about that the packages of the service are not available in source code...
