View 1 RepliesI'm using eclipse to develop over android, i'm trying to connect to a .net webservice...when i'm calling a webmethod with no parameters it works fine... but when i come to pass a parameter to the webmethod things turn upside down... the parameter is passed as null (while debugging the webservice i discovered that) and i get a null from the webmethod in the client side code... i've been searching for a solution for a day now and all that i can interpreter is that people keep talking about encoding styles and such stuff.... i've tried it all but in vain. i'm using ksoap2 version 2.3 with the following code:

I try to save a unique image to each object but I get this error, how should the constructor look for it to work that way? The constructor Beer(String, int, int) is undefined
m_beer = new ArrayList<Beer>();
final Beer b1 = new Beer("Tuborg", 7, R.drawable.tuborg);
final Beer b2 = new Beer("Carlsberg", 7, R.drawable.carlsberg);
final Beer b3 = new Beer("Urquel", 9, R.drawable.urquel);
public class Beer { //Members private String name;
private int color; //1 = Very dark 10 = Very light private R.drawable icon;
//Methods public Beer(String name, int color, R.drawable icon) {
this.name = name; this.color = color; this.icon = icon;
} public String getName() { return name;
} public void setName(String name) { this.name = name;
} public int getColor() { return this.color;
} public void setColor(int color) { this.color = color;
} public R.drawable getIcon() { return icon;
} }
I want to pass a class reference to an activity, and then the activity will construct the view according to the content of the class.
How could I implement this function?
I'm building an android application, which has a list view, and in the list view, a click listener, containing an onItemClick method. So I have something like this:
public class myList extends ListActivity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
getListView().setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
/* Do something*/
}
}
}
Normally, this works fine. However, many times I find myself needing too preform an application using the outer class as a context. thusfar, I've used: parent.getContext(); to do this, but I would like to know, is that a bad idea? I can't really call: because it's not really a subclass, just an embedded one. So is there any better way, or is that considered cosure? Also, if it is the right way, what should I do if the embedded method doesn't have a parameter to get the outside class?
From the JavaDoc, the EXTRA_STREAM parameter when launching an intent needs to be an URI. How can I pass a Bitmap object which I get from launching a "android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE" intent? code...
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm testing some functions with Android, JNI and NDK. I have the following JAVA class:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class JNITest extends Activity {
private int contador;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */...........................
Surely, this can't be allowed, can it? What recourse do I have?

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe problem is the apps will launch twice or more when I apply the following steps: 1. launch the app A (1 time) 2. rotate the screen, (the app A will launch again, now the app A launch twice) 3. press return button (my expected result is that the app A will keep running, luckily, I can do that.) 4. launch the app A ( there will be one more app A running) So, in this case, there are 3 app A launching at the same time. But my expected result is just have one and only one app A launch.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe want to develop an application which should be the only one our users should use. So we need to PREVENT them using other applications. (Mainly to make the maintenance support possible - we plan to buy at about 1000 phones, so the maintenance is tough task!) Is there any way to restrict the users?
For instance, is ADW Launcher able to do such things? Or is it possible to achieve this by coding our specific replacement of Home Launcher? And what about using some ASE scripts?
I am a beginner to Android OS, please do not assume any specific knowledge in your possible answers.
I'm creating a mobile website that will include a page from which people can download relevant apps that we recommend. I've found instructions for creating the links to launch the Market but this assumes that you are the developer of the app in question and know the exact package name.
Is there any way to get the package name, other than just contacting the developers and asking?
Also, it turns out that those instructions don't really work for creating web hyperlinks. They only give you a URI to reference in a string of Java code in another Android app. Our site is in Drupal, so Java is not going to work.
For the iPhone, I found easy instructions for getting the URL/link style I need from the iTunes store, so I'm looking for info like that.

View 5 Replies View Relatedwhy there are contacts loaded on my "brand new" S4 I received via Cell C in South Africa yesterday?
It is concerning me that they have supplied me with a re-worked/repaired phone that someone else has used previously.
There are about 10 contacts that show up, all are linked to google, not on the phone memory or sim memory. Numbers from friends, to "moms".
UK, American and local SA numbers.
Leading up to my purchase of the new EVO I familiarized myself with some battery-life-saving tips. One of the tips was associated with reducing the number of Widgets on the Home Screen(s) that are pulling data in the background.
QUESTION: if one doesn't use widgets but uses App icons and Shortcuts does the addition of those NON-widget items cause the associated apps to launch by themselves in the background MORE THAN if they were NOT "short-cutted" onto the Home Screen pages??
I'm trying to determine how/what I'm doing that might cause apps to launch in the background when I don't really want them to. I'm using Advanced Task Killer to see what is running in the background and have NO CLUE why some stuff is turning on when they do. A recent LARGE list of running apps that I did NOT turn on coincidentally coincided with some Home Screen short-cut non-widget add-ons I recently placed.
Rom Manager asks me to choose a phone type but my model number doesn't appear. I chose the Boston and more and it is downloading some other app that it needs.Will this cause problems that my exact phone model wasn't listed?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was watching TV, and playing with my phone, and saw a commercial that mentioned how you can launch certain apps and do certain actions via voice commands. I had forgotten about that frankly, and have only used it to navigate before. So I tried to launch a song. No go.
So, after a very brief google search, I found this:
Just speak it: introducing Voice Actions for Android - Official Google Mobile Blog
I updated the voice search app (even though it didn't show up in market without the direct link), and tried again to launch a song. Again, no go.
Apparently it only works with online radio apps like Pandora. It doesn't work with the Music player that comes with the damn phone! I mean seriously, how stupid is it that you can't tell it to play a song from your SD card but you can call up a radio channel (and not actually get to hear that song)?
