Android :: Custom Changeable Handler When Service Finishes Downloading File

May 30, 2010

I have a Service that downloads a file from the internet. What I want is for the response (an InputStream in this case) to be handled by a custom handler that can be switched (like a strategy pattern) but I can't figure out how to do this. So basically the User of the API would be able to plug in different handlers for the response, some would parse XML, others might save files etc. I realise I could pass through the activity context and execute the method from this (given some interface) but I don't want to do this obviously, in case the Activity is closed in the meantime while the file is still downloaded.

UPDATE - I just had one idea it will work sort of but has problem if the DownloadRunnable gets changed between executions of the downloads.

The modified Runnable interface
interface DownloadRunnable {
void run(InputStream stream);
}

An enum

public enum ServiceHandler {.......................

Android :: Passing A Service Handler

Aug 9, 2009

I've read the android AIDL documentation and have a general idea of how RPC works between an Activity and a Service. However, for my application it seems overboard to implement such features: basically, I want to pass a Service a nice handler so its thread can pass data to my Activity. Currently I'm getting around this by using a static public member (a hack) but I would prefer just passing a Handler object in the Service's starting Intent. However since a Handler isn't serialize-able , I haven't found a way to pass it to the service without a simple static member hack. Any insight? Or, am I just going to have to suck it up and do a formal RPC to the service?

Android :: Custom Protocol Handler

Nov 11, 2009

i want to do the following thing - when a user navigates to a web page, I want to have a link in there that looks like this: <p><a href="myprotocol://blah=42">Click here for fun.</a></p> Then when the user clicks on that from the phone browser, I want it to launch my intent with that full url. In my AndroidManifest.xml file, I have the following info: <activity android:name="com.test.MyActivity" style="@style/ MyStyle"> <!-- custom protocol association --><intent-filter><action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"></action> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category><category android:name="android.intent. category. BROWSABLE"> </category><data android:scheme="myprotocol"/></intent-filter></activity>When I try this, when I click on the link on the web page from the phone browser, it says -- Web page not available The Web page at myprotocol://blah=42 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

Android :: Custom Protocol Handler For Urls In Webview

Nov 6, 2010

I am hoping to create my own protocol handler for urls in a webview. I have tried two approaches already. The first was to attempt something similar to the approach defined here to create a customer protocol handler. http://java.sun.com/developer /onlineTraining/ protocol handlers / This works in a command-line Java program if I correctly set the system property java.protocol.handler.pkgs, but it does not work in Android, probably because I cannot figure out where to define this system property. Defining the system property in the code does not work. I assume this is because it needs to be loaded when the application first starts. I have also attempted to use URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory. This works for creating URL objects within the code, but it does not seem to be associated with the WebView. Any ideas on how to get this working?

Android :: Activity Still Lagging When Run Stuff In Service And Handler.post Method / Do This Correctly?

Nov 18, 2010

I'm confused why is my activity still lagging, I use remote service that has few methods and each has its own work like download stuff, process data, compare stuff, etc... It will run in background and update data at selected intervals and notify user of changes over notify system.

The reason why remote service, because I will eventually add a widget, and service needs to stay running even if android kills the activity, so I unbind it on each onPause().
But as far I understand that part doesn't cause my issue.

But back to my problem... so my is Activity still lagging when I run stuff in service and handler.post method.

here is the code...

Also I wanted to add progressDialog to be updated in updateLayer(...) through Activity is a listener to this service, but thats not working well. Whats the best way to update progressDialog? Ever listener, handler, intent, or what?

So how do I do this correctly?

Android : Is There A File Picker Widget For Custom File Formats

Oct 27, 2010

I'm writing a bitmap editor. Each document consists of about 3 bitmap layers and documents are, at the moment, saved as a custom file with a .bme extension. These files can be converted to standard jpg/png files by rendering each bitmap on top of one bitmap and saving the latter. I need some way for the user to be able to select .bme files they've created already. Is there anything in Android that can make this easier for me? The only option I can see is to write an activity that creates a list view and write a list adapter that looks for .bme files on disk i.e. a copy of the standard "Media Gallery" app that works for my .bme files. The list adapter will either have to generate a thumbnail preview of the image to show to the user or I'll have to package such a preview in the .bme file when they're created. This is the only option I can think of. I thought I'd ask in case there is more Android friendly way of doing this. For example, can you add custom file support to the "Media Gallery" app?

Android :: Get The Size Of File Before Downloading?

I have to download a file and I'm using this code, which is basically an AsyncTask that is meant to update a progress bar. But, since I don't know what's the file size I've been having to use the spinner progress bar. So, how can I get the file size before start downloading it so that I can use a normal progress bar?

Android :: When A Page Really Finishes Loading?

Oct 13, 2010

I am quite new to Android yet, and I have an application that has a webview on it. I need to know when the webview finishes loading a page that has a random number of redirects (sometimes to the same page, and the order of the redirects also change), so I can remove the Splash Screen only when there is a fully loaded page. On the webviewclient the onPageStarted and onPageFinished functions are called once per each redirect, as is the onNewPicture (even though the screen is always blank during the redirects). So I can't be sure when it's called the last time (page actually loaded). I also tried using the onLoadResource to count the number of resources loaded (dangerous and unreliable approach, but I am getting desperate here), but this also failed, since after the page is cached, it is called only one or two times. That is one big puzzle I am unable to solve using what I know so far, can anyone please help me?

Android :: Open Apk File After Downloading For Auto Update?

Aug 25, 2010

I have an application that I'd like to add auto-update functionality (its not in the marketplace). I have all the code in place that would check to see if there is an update available and then i call something like this: Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW ,Uri.parse(Configuration.APK_URL)); c.startActivity(intent); which starts downloading the file, although is there a way that I can programatically tell it to "open" the file to begin the installation process without the user having to go to the downloads and clicking on it?

Android :: Best Practice For Downloading File - URLConnection - HttpClient - Intent

Mar 11, 2010

If an app needs to download some critical data (without the data it cannot function) of several MB, what is the best practice? The app would start, a prompt would be shown to confirm download, download would commence, and the user would be prevented from going further until the download successfully completes. I don't expect the download would take more than, say, 10 secs over wifi but, of course, would take much longer over 2G. Is a service absolutely essential for this? Maybe there is already some code out there that takes a URL, downloads it in a service, and broadcasts a configurable Intent when the download has completed?

Motorola Droid 2 : 2.3.20 OTA Update / Downloading A Custom Rooted Rom

Nov 10, 2010

I've scoured forums and seem to see only talk about people receiving the OTA, or using the About PhoneCheck for updates to get it, or downloading a custom rooted ROM with it.

I have a normal, unrooted D2 and I've not had an OTA, and every single time I try to do the check for updates, here is what happens:

Over wifi: The checking for updates spinning circle never stops.

Over 3g: Message Box: "Check for update was not available at this time. Try again later."

I've had this since result the 28th of October. Am I missing something?

Android :: Droid Market - Installation Never Finishes / Stop It?

Oct 19, 2010

I recently released an update to my application (about a week ago).

Since then, I've had two emails from users who report that, while updating the app through Market, the installation process gets "stuck" and never finishes. This is after the application has been downloaded. They can't abort the installation.

Did anyone here have similar reports recently?

Android :: Make SAX Parser Wait For File To Finish Downloading Before Parsing?

Sep 20, 2010

I am having a problem where my XML files are slow to load and don't finish downloading before they start to be parsed which throws an xml not well formatted exception from my parser showing that the file downloaded incompletely. The complete error from logcat is "ERROR/Error(323): errororg.apache.harmony.xml.ExpatParser$ParseException: At line 10, column 46: not well-formed (invalid token)" I know the xml file is correct because sometimes it will work and I can also pull it up in my browser and look at it.

What would be the best way to make the parser wait for the InputSource before continuing on and parsing the xml data? The code below is the code I use to get the file and parse it.

SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser();
XMLReader xr = sp.getXMLReader();
GradeHandler gradeHandler = new GradeHandler();
xr.setContentHandler(gradeHandler);
URL url = new URL("https://url/to/xml/file");
HttpsURLConnection ucon = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
ucon.setHostnameVerifier(new AllowAllHostnameVerifier());
xr.parse(new InputSource(new BufferedInputStream(ucon.getInputStream())));

HTC EVO 4G :: Data Time Out - Downloading File From Android Marketplace Surfing Web Watching Using GPS?

Jun 25, 2010

I have been having some major problems with my EVO regarding the data. If I use anything that is on the heavy side of bandwidth, like downloading a file from android marketplace, surfing the web, watching sprint tv, using the GPS, etc...the data will just time out for about 3 min at a time. For instance if I am downloading a 5mb app from android marketplace, it will maybe download a megabyte, then it will just stop downloading. If you look at the 3G symbol at the top, it will be white, but only the upstream indicator will be on. I can then open any other internet application on the phone, and nothing will work. It usually lasts for about 3 minutes at a time and happens fairly regularly. It will end up taking me 15-20 min to download a 5mb file from the marketplace. Same thing if I browse a bandwidth heavy site like digg.com. It will just time out after a while and it will just show the upstream indicator as solid and not do anything in any program.

This problem is not location dependent. I have this issue at my apartment, at work, at my friend's house, at the Sprint store...anywhere. I live in South Denver.

In chronological order, this is what I have done to troubleshoot/fix the problem:

First noticed problem
Turned off phone/Turned back on
Rooted and installed custom version of 2.1 w/ Sense
Removed battery (power cycle)
Talk to Sprint cust care. They sent signal over that reactivated the phone (2x)
Did factory reset on phone and formatted SD card
Swapped phone at Sprint store with new one

So even after swapping my EVO with a new EVO from the Sprint store and not fooling with the phone at all, I am still having the same exact issue.

I am absolutely at wit's end with this and I have no idea what to do at this point.

Update (6/25):

I have not been able to test with Wifi yet, but I just had one of my coworkers that has the same phone to replicate the issue on his phone. He is having the same exact problem as me, he just didnt realize it.

We set our phones next to each other and downloaded Space Buster 3D Lite off the Android Marketplace. Mine crapped out about 2mb in and so did his. He wasnt able to surf or do anything else on his phone for a few minutes just like mine.

I'm wondering if this a network problem in our area or if there is a problem with the phone.

Also, I downloaded a continuous ping program and did 3,000 pings with no packet loss, so it seems to only happen with heavy data usage ie. saturating your bandwidth.

I'm having a problem with unlocking my phone. Some of my friends tried to unlock the pattern but after 20 failures the phone blocked. Now I have to submit my google login so I can get back on it. The problem with that was that I was on vacation abroad so my 3G and wifi were both turned off. I've read about other problems like this and came to a point where I was trying to turn on my wifi with adb. I found that I could use the command "svc wifi enable" and I tried this several times, every time with the same result: I think the command starts but then gets killed before it finishes.
