Android :: Checking Whether DB Exists

Aug 25, 2009

I would like to check whether there is any direct API available to check whether a particular Database exists or not ?

Currently, to initialize data for the first time (not repeatedly), we try of open the db and if it fails we know the database does not exists otherwise it is already created and initialized.

Is there any simple API available to check whether DB exists or not ?

Android :: Valid Network Exists

Dec 23, 2009

I am struggling to find a way to determine if a valid network is available to an app. specifically, if there's a problem making a network connection, i would like to be determine if it's on the client (app) side, or a problem with the remote server. i happen to be attempting a URL connection (using http client) and the wide and varied possible exceptions don't seem like a reliable method. for example, when the network is down on the phone, i received "unknown host exception", which doesn't really indicate the root cause ... it's possible to get that exception with a valid network connection also. at other times i get other exceptions, such as socket exception. is there a way to ask the phone if it's network ready? the other option i thought was to ping a known good server to see if it responds ... with an IP address. kind of a heavy weight option and not foolproof.

Android : Check And See Activity Exists?

May 20, 2010

Is there a way to check and see if an Activity exists on your device? If I have a youtube video link I want to specify it open in the YouTube PlayerActivity. However, I don't want to crash if for some reason they don't have it.

Is there a way to check and see if the activity exists? I don't think I can catch the runtime exception since startActivity() doesn't throw it.

Android :: SQL Efficiently Check - An Association Exists

Nov 5, 2010

I have a database of notes and lists, with three association tables.
Basically, lists are parents of notes and other lists, and notes can be parents of other notes in a outline like hierarchy.

I am using this query to return all notes within a list as well as the number of subnotes each note has.

CODE:...................

This query works just fine, but it's overkill. I don't need to return count(n2.note_id) as Num_Subnotes because I'm only using that value to check if the note has ANY SUBNOTES AT ALL. Essentially it's a boolean value where 0 is false and > 0 is true.

It seems to me that counting all those records is a waste of time when I could just return 1 after finding the first matching value.

Is there a more efficient way to check if count(n2.note_id)>0 in the above query?

Android :: To Mock Sqlite3 Cursor When No Db / Table Exists?

Sep 16, 2010

I am using a ContentProvider for caching results from a web-service query. It is an HTTP request and the response content is XML. Most of the data is cached, so I simply query the DB, if not found, request from webservice, insert in DB and requery the DB. Thus the response is always a Cursor from SQLiteDatabaseHelper.
I have one result set that is not stored in the DB and since it is 100% transient, but I would like to provide the appearance of it coming from the DB's Cursor. Is there an easy way to do this? For example, if I could project it onto the cursor with a cursor.setValue("string", objectValue) or some other existing implementation.
If not, I will either bypass the DB for this content result, or stuff it into a trivial table that is constantly reused.

Android :: Checking If New SMS Has Been Read

I am working on a simple app for the HTC EVO that blinks the alternate notification LED when a new text message is received. I have this part working great via a Broadcast Receiver but I need some way to turn the LED off when the user has read the message(s) using their default SMS app. I'm not sure if it is best to do this in the receiver or in a background service.

Android :: Checking How A Program Was Installed

Mar 20, 2009

Is there a way to programmatically without root check and see how a program was installed?

The only solution I've been able to find is using root - and tapping into a database that the Vending application uses;

CREATE TABLE assets10(_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, content_uri TEXT, s tate TEXT, download_pending_time INTEGER, download_start_time INTEGER, install_t ime INTEGER, uninstall_time INTEGER, size INTEGER, type TEXT, package_name TEXT, is_forward_locked TEXT, signature TEXT, refund_timeout INTEGER, version_code IN TEGER, server_string_id TEXT UNIQUE);

Most specifically I can check to this database using my package name and/or signature and see if it's ever been installed by the market. Then if it has you could check to see if it's been uninstalled.

As for background, I'm just messing around with ways to distinguish real users from pirated versions. I've noticed from an application I've posted that I only have approximately 100 downloads and 50% active, yet my server which is used by the application shows approximately 200ish unique users within the past few days.

Android :: Checking For Network Connectivity?

Oct 6, 2010

I have an IntentService which makes some web service calls. Before making these calls I check to make sure the device has network connectivity.

I am doing so like this:

CODE:.............

Unfortunately, when I'm debugging on my Android device, this returns false when I have both a network and a wireless connection.

Some interesting tidbits about connec.getNetworkInfo(0):

CODE:...................

Clearly this code is not sufficient (perhaps it would only return true if I sent some bit over the network and turned the radio on?). Moreover, since I'm not well versed in the ConnectivityManager, I'm assuming I should probably be scanning all networks (ie: getNetworkInfo(0 through N)).
