This is odd. I need to make my code pretty, so the first thing I want to do is to change the all the strings 'com.appspot.lbtdl' to 'com.faberfedor.tagyourworld'. I change every string in all the directories using the Perl 'pie' technique. Then I put the code into a new directory, create a new Eclipse project and run it. Code...

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to be able to easily create different "flavors" on an app, each with a unique package name so that they can coexist on the same device. Is there a simple way this can be done, which doesn't require manually updating all the imports and other references to the package name each time I change it?

I was wondering, is there a way to change a program's name? Like for example. I've got a game on my HTC Desire "Labyrinth Lite". But what I would like to do is change it's name to just "Labyrinth". Is there any possible way to do it with the device or is their an app on the android market that I can use this for?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI downloaded Astro because I'm suppose to be able to change the names of my pictures with it but when I open the program I can find all sorts of files, but I can't find a folder for my gallery or my library where the pictures are suppose to be. I think they should be there anyway.
Once I found a place to type a "name" & search but that did not find those file folders either. I thought I might search the "Name" of a photo I have on the phone but now I can't even find where to type in the name/date & time again.
I've created an Android application which has a certain package name that I've been using personally for months now. I'm about to release it on the market, and I have to change the package name. This cannot be avoided.
My issue is that the application has an SQLite database attached to it that I want to keep, but I know if I change the package name, it'll install as a separate application and I'll have to restart my database, which would take a very long time.
Is there a good way to change a package name while maintaining the SQLite database? Or at least moving the database easily? This will just be for my own phone since it hasn't been released to the public yet.
I created a folder on one of the screens, but the default name for it is Folders. How can I change that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been working on an android application for a few months and now need to change the package name. So I went into AndroidManifest.xml and changed the package name, but all it did was create errors.
So my question is:How do you change the package name of an application in Eclipse?
how can I change package name of com.android.settings to something else..I have edited the manifest file but after recompiling it gives me a bunch of errors...i want to install two Settings.apk 1st id original Stock Settings.apk and another GB Settings.apk which I obtained from source system.img but both have some errors and when I try to open something it gives me FC's Something works and something doesn't So if i have installed both the apk i can redirect bu editing apk files so i will not have any errors or FC's

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to override an Android View class to tweak the functionality just slightly. But I need to modify a field that does not have a setter method. I've placed the subclass in a package called android.widget. Why can't I access any of the package-private member fields? I notice that the compiler says they "cannot be resolved," rather than not being accessible. Does this have something to do with how Android.jar is built?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I am trying to do - I am continuously getting a stream of lat/lng positions, I want to move a overlay item dynamically on the map based on the lat/lng in the stream. I am displaying the location of moving object dynamically on the map
I am putting my whole code in a while(true) loop and trying to read the stream every 5 seconds and refresh the overlays on the map. But overlay items are not shown until the function (either oncreate, or any onclickeventhandler etc) is completed. For example, test code, I am adding a single test overlay item when ever the user clicks on a button. If I put a wait(2000000) "after" I add overlays and invalidate the map, the overlay is not displayed until the time has elapsed and the function is completed.
In my app I am drawing bus routes on top of a MapView. The routes have anywhere between a dozen and a few hundred GPS coordinates that describe the route that the bus takes. The problem I'm having is that once I draw out all these lines panning/zooming the MapView is incredibly slow (even clicking the 'Back' button takes a minute to happen). I'm not sure how relevant it is, but I put in some debug code then checked the logcat output and the MapView is repeatedly calling the draw() method of the Overlay whether anything has changed or not. This is happening several times a second and is causing a massive amount of garbage collection to happen (2-3 MB every second).
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy problem is my MapView becoming very laggy and so non-responsive at times, that Android thinks its hit deadlock and tries to close it.
I am adding 60 overlays to the map view and i originally thought that the icon size may be causing the problem by using up all the memory. When i decreased the overlay icon size, it did improve things, though it is still to slow to be usable. Has anyone experienced anything similar and have a workaround? There may be a better way of doing it other then extending the Hello MapView example.
I have the following code to add an Overlay
myMapView.getOverlays().add(sites);
myMapView.invalidate();
I also have the following remove code where sites is a global variable.code...
Sometimes I am left with duplicates so would like a way to remove all overlays from a map, is this possible?
i have a problem with my mapView. my app reads "some" gps points out of a file and i want to draw a route (drawing lines between the gps point). If my file contains many gps points, my app works really slow. i think its working slow, because i draw all overlays. now i want to check, whether a point is visible in my mapView or not. so i have to get the mapCenter and Lat/lon span (getLatitudeSpan,..) !? how and where must i save my points and how can i check all my points (after my mapCenter has changed for example). Shall I save my points in a list (in my Overlay class??) and iterate through every list item and check, wheter its visible or not?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been reading the (shoddy) documentation for the Google Maps API (MapActivity et al), and I think I have roughly worked out how it works. It seems that if you want to add a marker overlay you can use ItemizedOverlay easily, but you have to add all your markers at once. There doesn't seem to be any way to remove them.
What I want to do is query markers from an online database as the user pans around (in the same way the actual map tiles are fetched). Is there a simple way to do this?
As far as I can tell I need to subclass Overlay and implement the draw method, but where is the best place to put the code that fetches new markers when the map is panned? There doesn't seem to be an onMapChanged() method anywhere. My best guess is MapController.onKey() but that seems wrong.
I'm seeing a bug with overlays on MapView with the Nexus One. Pinch and zoom multitouch gestures don't scale my overlays until the user releases the gesture, at which point the overlay redraws itself. In contrast, the My Location overlay in Google Maps WILL scale during the gesture. Is there a way to fix this in my app, or is this a MapView bug?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI followed the instructions from the google hellomapview tutorial. I get a working mapview etc. But the two items that are added to the map are not shown. It seems they are there somewhere because tapping at the specified location shows the message that was added to the items.
Here is my source code. It should be very close to the google tutorial source code.

I want to do the following and am kind of stuck on these for a few days:
1) I was trying to draw poly lines ( I have encoded polylines, but have managed to decoded those) that move when I move the map(the only solution that I found was for Geopoints to be transformed into screen co-ordinateswhich wont move if I move the map !)
2) I have used helloItemizedOverlay to add about 150 markers and it gets very very slow.any idea what to do ? I was thinking about threads(handler)
3) I was looking for some sort of a timer function that executes a given function, say, every 1 minute or so.
4) I was also looking for ways to clear the Google map from all the markers/lines etc
I have a map in my android application that shows many markers (~20-50). But the app performs very poor when i try to scroll/zoom (in Google Android Maps i did a sample search for pizza and there were also some 20-50 results found and i didn't notice any particular performance problems when zooming/scrolling through the map).
onCreate() {
....
drawable = this.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.marker1);
itemizedOverlay = new MyItemizedOverlay(drawable,mapView);
...
callWebServiceToRetrieveData();
createMarkers();
}..............................
I have a ImageView and draw some things on that view. Now I want to have the position of the click in the onClickListener. Although I think that's not really possible (storing the position in the onTouchListener is not working), I want to ask, if there is any other way to accomplish that? The goal is to have a image with some overlays, that should be clickable. I thought about AbsolutLayout, but that is depracated, so what now?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe Android the MapView Overlay class mentions two draw methods. One regular, and one for animated overlays.
I have tried to find more information on how to animate overlays and use this second method, but it all keeps coming back to the same forum postings. Can anyone explain how you specify to the MapView that a certain Overlay should be animated? How do you specify the manner in which it animates?
If it's relevant, I'm currently trying to draw pins in the map that update in realtime with streaming GPS locations for objects. I get new data every two seconds and need to tween the locations by having the pins move in a simple straight line between coordinates.
I've got a game, a custom View class draws my gameboard. I'm thinking of drawing some elements on a separate layer above the gameboard. I could do this in the View's canvas code, but since they won't change frequently, was thinking of introducing a frame layout to display this top layer.I'm not sure which route to take, the only reason I wouldn't do the FrameLayout is because I'm not sure if it has an impact on battery life. Everytime onDraw() is called, the system probably has to do an alpha composition of the two layers. Is that more battery consuming than drawing the elements from that layer myself in my canvas on every frame? Hard to answer since I'm not sure how complex the drawing will be yet, any general opinions?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen an overlay is put on a MapView, the shadow suggest that its at an angle and not flat on the map.
I have been creating scaled bitmaps to overlay on a mapview, but i am either geting the scale wrong or the overlay is being painted at a slight angle, sitting up a bit, rather then being flat to the map.
Does anyone know if this is true? and if so, is there a way to stop it painting at an angle or do you know the angle so i can compensate for it when creating the bitmapped overlay?
