I've noticed lately that a lot lately that files I've downloaded to my Droid, mostly PDFs though it's happened to a spreadsheet or two, will be viewable at the time, but corrupted and unable to open when I reentered the apparently to view a given file at a later time. Is this something I'm missing, like not closing the file for example? Would that even make a difference?

I have an app that is working fine in 1.6 and up but crashing for apparently no reason in 1.5. The app suddenly quits with the following message...
CODE:............
This error happens when the app is 'idling' (ie not doing anything other than redrawing the screen). There is no state change and no user input. The error occurs after the same amount of elapsed time whatever I set the frame rate of the app to and occurs both on the emulator and device. Changing what I display on screen can stop the error but there appears to be no logic to this (in one instance not drawing a large image stops the error but elsewhere just drawing some text causes the app to crash in the same manner).
I am using SurfaceView for animations following the basic procedure in the Lunar Lander sample app.
After testing both stock 2.1 and 2.2 and different rom bakes, the conclusion is that the Incredible for some reason does not really have "true" apps2sd (as define by Android). It appears that regardless of if most of an app is moved to the sd or not, the total available app space is nowhere near even the 748mb on device and the ceiling is actually around 500mb when "low on space" errors begin popping up.
Key example is when apps are shifted to the sd, the low on space error still happened, regardless of cache and message spaces being clean. I tested this with stock as well.The app install space is not to be confused with data downloads that some apps automatically install to sd (games like Quake, Nova, etc), but the actuall apps2sd move process in the app manager.It does not matter where the weight of the apps is installed, since whether having 300mb apps on the device and 200mb apps on the card results in the same thing as 500mb of apps on the device and 0mb apps on the sd- low on space is the result.On the Incredible, apps2sd is really app displacement. As a result, it is better not to use apps2sd, since saves space on the microsd card and makes no difference to the amount of apps you can install. Also, there is no way to get anywhere near the 748mb, yet alone having that much on the device and part of apps on the microsd (total would be a more than 748mb).
The .6 update that is meant to fix the memory card problem pops up on my phone like twice a day. If I download it AND install it, it doesn't take. The same FOTA update is detected again the next day, and the next day, and the next. I don't have any memory card issues. But I'm wondering how to make my rooted phone accept FOTA updates. I'm a n00b. Is this just a limitation of rooted phones? I rooted using this method: How to Root Your HTC Evo 4G! | HTC Evo 4G Hacks! I used this file: Supersonic_1.32.651.1_rooted.zip
View 4 Replies View RelatedI keep running into a weird scenario with my Incredible (non-rooted, Android 2.1) where the notification sound changes to one of the other files on my SD card. I can't seem to make the notification sound stick.For example: this morning, I unmounted the SD card after syncing with Doubletwist on my PC and got into my car. When I turned on the car, the phone connected via Bluetooth to the stereo. Upon connection, the phone made a notification sound, but that sound had been changed from the default notification sound to one of my MP3s.

View 6 Replies View RelatedToday i have been having some fun today downloading and yes buying (!) apps from the mkt. well, i started getting a little instability - i couldn't get an IP from my wireless router --- i had d/l "wifi keep alive" and "wifi reconnect" and "wifi reassociation". so i went to the mkt intending to uninstall one by one until i restored my ability to DHCP to the router. selecting the "downloads" section of the mkt revealed only about two pages worth of apps. believe me - i have a LOT more apps than that! mostly all the apps that appear are purchased apps (one exception - gmail is there too) - but even then, not "all" of my purchased apps are there! in doing my due dilligence checking to see if anyone else had this problem and solved it, i found this thread and this thread - neither of which have anything to say to help me. ANY idea how to get my apps to show up in the mkt? the apps themselves ARE STILL ON MY hero, they just don't appear in the mkt)

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where I allow the user to email a number of documents from my app. The problem is that one request may result in the sending of 3 or 4 emails. Ideally I would like to get all the SEND info at the beginning and at a minimum populate all the fields so that all the user has to do is hit SEND for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc email. All is fine except that the email client seems to accept the email address only when typed in manually: Below is a snippet of my email routine:
private boolean emailInfo(File filename, String subject, String body) { Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, "Extra Title"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, "theem...@comcast.net"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "body"); sendIntent.setType("text/csv"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(filename)); sendIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION); //startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Select Mail Client"),101); startActivityForResult(sendIntent,101); return true; }
The email address that I pass via: sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, "theem...@comcast.net"); is always ignored and so it has to be manually entered on each email.
Today you can get "Documents to go" for $5.55 (Normally $29.95) but I am not really sure what I would gain over the included Quickoffice ap. I could be wrong but I believe quick office is read only while documents to go allows editing.Anyone else know the difference?
Ignoring price, what one is better functionality wise? Quickoffice came preinstalled on my Dinc, don't know if thats a gimped version or not.

The most of them don't support anything other than this new for me "epub" format. Now I can open the .docs, but would like to read them in a convenient way with the options and extras of an ebook reader software. I found something about online converter from .doc to epub, but would like to have my books accessible without pre-converting.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was going to hold out for DTG 3.0 but think that I really need this program. Also, I just read on DTG's site that the upgrade to 3.0 will be free. The unknown is when and if 3.0 will ever come out. Anyways, being not too familiar with DTG I have a few questions:
1.How do I get documents to and from my PC? Do I have to email back and forth? If I create a document on my PC and want to take it on the road to edit it how do I get it to my Droid Incredible for editing and then back to my desktop for printing, ect?
2.I use MS Office 2007 on my PC will this work with DTG?
3.What are some overall impressions of how this app actually works?
On my droid x quik office works great to automatically open word and pdf docs. The issue I am having is that once I have downloaded a document I have no way to save it and i can't find it later. I can't find the saved documents or the quick office application anywhere on my phone.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I've been thinking of purchasing a smart phone, although I know virtually nothing of their capabilities.
I was curious if it was possible to write documents/scripts and upload them onto my website straight from my phone.
I essentially want a phone that could best emulate my linux (text-editing and ftp. Even better it has a terminal/Command-line feature), or a phone useful for web-developers. Would the Android be able to do this?
I'm considering switching to an Android device after using Windows Mobile for years and years... the new Droid from Verizon really looks impressive and I'm not real high on some of the new Windows Mobile devices coming out.One of my needs though will be to read, edit, and save 2007 Office documents. However, I'd also like to have my documents auotsync'd with Google Docs. Is something like this possible?
