Android : Can I Setup A Persistent / Regular Schedule In Droid?

Nov 23, 2010

How can I execute an action (maybe an Intent) on every specified time (e.g. Every day on 5AM)? It has to stay after device reboots, similar to how cron works.

I am not sure if I can use AlarmManager for this, or can I?

Jan 4, 2010

I have 2 gmail accounts. Unfortunately, one of them is for my calendar and contacts and the other is for my personal e-mail. As of now, my cal and contacts are syncing fine but I do not use the e-mail account that is associated with thier username. I have my other account (personal e-mail) set up sepeartely....along with a few other e-mail accounts(work and etc.).

I know this is confusing but i dont know how else to explian it.

Android :: Create Persistent Socket Connection On Droid?

Apr 29, 2010

First off, let me say that feel free to recommend me if long lived TCP persistent connections are the way to go or persistent HTTP connections are better.

I've also pre-read that instead of having a persistent connection, I can have a polling mechanism.

I'm just asking in the curious interest of how can I create a persistent connection from Android to a server?

Motorola Droid X : No Persistent Message Notification SMS - MMS / GMail

Jul 15, 2010

Unless I'm mistaken, it seems the X only ringtones or vibrates one time when an SMS, MMS or GMail is received. There does not seem to be a method to allow periodic ringtones, vibrations or LED blinks -- to indicate a message was received. So the only way to see if you have a message seems to be to wake the phone up. If true -- this would be a real bummer.

Android : What Does HTC Sense Change Over Regular Droid?

Jun 29, 2010

So I hear people saying that they hate sense, or they love sense. I've never had an android phone before (the last time I bought a phone was 2005). So I've had my incredible for awhile, and without a reference I'm not sure what sense added.

I know they have some sense only widgets, but beyond that, how is it different from plain jane android?

Motorola Droid :: Milestone Release Schedule?

Nov 8, 2009

I once had a HTC TyTN. It was basically ok at what it did, but it couldn't sync with my Linux systems reliably, so it lost much of its appeal. I eventually sold it and I'm now using a 15 euro phone that came with 10 euro prepaid. You know the kind. Basically, I needed any mobile phone and I would keep my contacts / schedule on paper until a better solution came along. </backstory> I've been meaning to complicate things again. Android now seems like a good solution, and the Droid/Milestone is the best there currently is. Problem is, I live in the Netherlands.

It's in Germany and in Italy now. But is there any more information - educated guesses even - on when it might arrive in the Netherlands? Or, I'm sure others are interested, elsewhere in Europe? I was hoping to get one this year. Should I hold my breath? I know there is the option to import the device from Germany or Italy. But as I understand it, three quarters of the appeal of Android in general, and the Droid in particular, is the wireless internet connectivity.

Motorola Droid 2 :: Email Notifications And Fetch Schedule

Oct 15, 2010

1. My work email is set up under a Corporate Sync header, not an email header. This seems to email that arrive to not show up on my notifications header or notify me the way I've got the other email accounts to notify (ring, vibrate, etc.). Is there a way to change this?

2. Can the fetch schedule be reduced to anything less than 15 minutes? That seems to be a very long time to wait for an email to arrive.

Android :: Persistent Data Even When App Uninstalled

Oct 2, 2009

My application needs to store some application specific data on the device that persist, even when the app is uninstalled. Using files or databases is not possible as they are deleted with the app when the app is uninstalled. Storing it on an SD-card is too fragile. It is my understanding Content Providers also are deleted with their parent app?

Android :: Persistent Field In Service

Aug 6, 2009

I need to retain a complex object in my service, so I can reliably come back to it (it holds updates). Initially I coded it just as a class filed in my Service implementation but I'm observing that the updates object is periodically reset to null which tells me that server class itself is recreated. Can someone recommend lightweight reliable strategy to save and recreate such updates object (I can make it serializable)

Android : Want To Maintain Persistent State Information?

Nov 9, 2010

This usually happens when the user hits "Home", does something else, then eventually wanders back into the app - it attempts to go back to where it was before, but the application Context has mysteriously lost all its previously-saved state information (in my case, a few integers and a few Strings). I know this is a very vague question, but are there any cases (other than the user using "back" to back completely out of the application) where the application Context gets completely destroyed even though the application is not terminated? Is there a better way to maintain persistent state information?

Android :: Implementing A Robust Persistent Undo/redo Feature

Oct 27, 2010

I'm writing a bitmap editor where I use the Command Pattern to represent actions that will transform the document. I keep all the commands executed so far in a list and, to implement undo, I restore the document to its initial state and then replay all but the last command.

I would like my undo/redo system to have the following feature: When the user closes the editor and returns, the document, including the available undo and redo commands, should be restored to the state it was in when the user left.

I'm implementing this for Android where your application can be given very little notice before it will be cleared from memory if e.g. the user gets a phone call. Also, some of my commands are e.g. a list of all the x,y co-ord the user painted on so these might take a few moments to save to disk.

My current idea is as follows:

When a new action is performed, the command object is added to a list S for commands that need to be saved to disk.

A background thread is used that will continually take commands from list S and save them to disk. The postfix of the filenames used will be numbered in sequence. For example, if the user filled the screen then drew 2 circles, the command files might be called FillCommand1.cmd, DrawCircleCommand2.cmd, DrawCircleCommand3.cmd.

Periodically, we save a "checkpoint" command whose purpose is to store the full document state so that, even if one of the .cmd files is corrupted, we can restore a recent version of the document.
When the user exits the app, the background thread attempts to finish up saving all the commands it can (but it might get killed).

On startup, we look for the most recent .cmd file that represents a checkpoint that we can load successfully. All the .cmd files we can load after this (i.e. some files might be corrupt) go in the redo command list, all the .cmd files we can load between the first checkpoint loaded and the oldest checkpoint we can load go in the undo list.


I want the undo limit to be about 20 or 30 commands back so I need extra logic for discarding commands, deleting .cmd files and I've got to worry about multi-threading behaviour. This system seems pretty complex and will need a lot of testing to make sure it doesn't go wrong.

Is there anything in Java or Android than can help make this easier? Am I reinventing the wheel anywhere? Maybe a database would be better?

Motorola Droid :: Works In Speaker Phone / Not Regular / Not Voice Search Etc

Jul 7, 2010

So heres a random problem that started happening recently I used to be able to reboot my phone and it would work fine again, now I'm SOL. So my mic doesn't work when I make/recieve calls unless I turn on speakerphone. No one can hear me unless its in speaker mode. If I do a voice search, voice record, etc, nothing happens. The only way I can talk on my phone is if I'm on speaker phone. I've rebooted, tried inserting headphones into the headset jack and removing, etc. I guess my final step is to factory reset and see if that fixes it. Are there any known solutions? I did NOT change any configuration. Oh, and I should throw out there, that once in a blue moon it DOES work on regular phone. This is totally random.

HTC Droid Eris :: Facebook In Browser (regular Version Not Mobile Site)

Dec 11, 2009

Is it possible to open the regular Facebook page in the browser? I am almost able to log in to it, but then it asks me for my birthday because I'm not browsing from a "familiar location". So I select my correct birth date from the drop-down menus, but the Login button stays grayed out for some reason and I can't go any further. Has anyone else had any success?My reason for wanting this is so I can access the actual Notifications page. The way I currently have it set up, I get an e-mail notification in Gmail. Then when I click the link in the e-mail for whatever update it's supposed to take me to, it just takes me to the homepage of Facebook Mobile. Then sometimes it won't even list the New Notifications link. This makes it very inconvenient if I want to go find where to reply to a comment or something. I have to know exactly where it is, which is difficult if it's not recent.
