Does anybody know what data structures are used to the store messages in an SMS client app, and whether there is an existing API for this.I was perhaps looking at implementing a link list for the purpose but if the work has already been done in an API then perhaps it would be unnecessary to commit time to the task that could be spent programming other parts.

For my CS bachelors I am doing a Senior project using android and google maps.My vision was to do a (relatively) simple Dijkstra shortest path using google maps road data. I was going to add elevation change along with 2D distance. I am doing well playing with maps in android but I am completely stumped trying to access google maps data in any sort of searchable form.How would I go about accessing the data for say intersections of roads (lat/long) in a particular area?There has to be a way to pull that data in some sort of tree form. It seems like it may be possible with kml?Any pointers would be awesome.I want my paths to follow roads but If i cant this is going to turn into an orienteering application fairly fast.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI fear the answer is no, but before I change the structure of all of my log messages: Is there any way to do this: $ adb logcat *:S com.myappname.*:V
Or in words: I want to silence every tag that goes to logcat except the ones that begin with com.myappname. Currently my classes print into the log with this.getClass().getName() as the tag - typing each tag out individually in the filter isn't an option, so is there anyway to use the wildcard? The above command doesn't work, because it just silences every class, including the ones I've explicitly told to be verbal. I've also tried:
$ adb logcat -s com.myappname.*:V $ adb logcat com.myappname.*:V *:S
to no avail. I have a feeling I might have to log in a more constant fashion. Or I might just use log4J.
I want to display a tree like data structure, for the Swing JTree is ideal. Is there any widget that provides that? Or any implementation of Swing for Android?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my application, I am going to create a few listviews that are dependent on the listview before it. For example,Then, depending on user choice, will go next screen, let's say, it contains a submenu of each type of school,that may be different or may be the same to other states.What I want to know, is how to populate these different lists dynamically as the user goes on? I don't know what the best of doing this is, and I seem to be looking in the all the wrong places because I keep getting stuck. Once all the data is added into whatever structure is used, it will be static. I basically just need help as to how to code information into some sort of hashtable or anything of the sort that can be easily referenced, and later when the Application is updated, be able to add more schools/states/submenus etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am developing an application which is communicating with the server. Tha application can perform log-in and get different parameters from server.
The application consists of a RESTful client (custom class for making requests), Communication Service (the service which runs in the background) and the main activity.
For now I created multiple broadcast messages and multiple broadcast receivers in the main activity so when the application performs login operation a receiver (loginBroadcastReceiver) in the main activity receives a message and when another parameter is received from the server different message is broadcasted and another receiver handles the message.
This way however the application performance is poor but I am not sure whether it is due to multiple broadcast receivers.
Does anyone know what is the best way to exchange data between service and main activity - is it better to create a single broadcast receiver and retrieve all parameters from message or is it better to initialize multiple broadcast receivers for multiple parameters?
I'm working on an application using the SMS apis for android. The receiving end is an embedded unit that only supports 7-bit encoded SMS and the string I'm sending consists only of symbols from this particular alphabet which makes you think that Android is going to send it encoded as 7 bit. But that is not the case.Therefore I'm searching for a way to specify what encoding to use. See below for what my code looks like today. The method gsm7BitPackedToString turns a byte-array to a 7-bit string, i.e. the string only consists of 7-bit compatible characters and is copied from the internal android api. Code...

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there already functionality similar to the push registry or wireless messaging API in J2ME implemented in Android? Or at least plans to do so?I have been looking at this issue for a while, because in a corporate environment it is essential to be able to push information out, or trigger actions via SMS or other connections.I have successfully sent an SMS between emulator instances, and successfully received an SMS by using a BroadcastReceiver on another emulator instance. I have also been able to use SmsManager. sendDataMessage to send a data message to a port on another emulator instance, but in this case the BroadcastReceiver is never triggered. This seems to be the closest the API's get to what I'm looking for.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a simple Workout Timer for Android. The user creates a WorkoutPlan containing info such as total duration, total rest time, etc, the app will display a timer that updates every second.
Pretty simple to begin with, but I'm trying to build the app as properly as possible, i.e. separation of concern, correct techniques, responsive UI, ensure the timer will be accurate, etc.
Here's a simplification of what I have so far:
WorkoutPlan, the user can load/save different workout plans to the timer
Code:
public class WorkoutPlan {
public long duration;
}
TimerThread, this class implements `Runnable`, it takes in a `WorkoutPlan` in the constructor, start/stop, shows elapsed time.
Code:
public class TimerThread implements Runnable {
public boolean running = false;
[Code]....
TimerView, the custom view that displays the elapsed time
Code:
public class TimerView extends View {
private final Paint mBg;
private final Paint mText;
private WorkoutPlan plan;
private TimerThread timer;
private Thread thread;
private Handler handler = new TimerHandler();
[Code]...
Finally, WorkoutTimer, the activity that starts it off
Code:
public class WorkoutTimer extends Activity {
private TimerView mTimer;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
[Code]....
A couple of questions:
Where's the best place to create the `WorkoutPlan` object? Currently it's done in `TimerView`. Should it be done in the `WorkoutTimer` activity instead? If yes, how do I pass the `WorkoutPlan` object to `TimerView`?
The app works fine the first time, but crashes when I go to the home screen then back to the app the second time. What's causing it to crash? Is it the theading?
Currently I'm using a `Handler` in a new `Thread`. Is this ok or would a `TimerTask` be better? Where's the best place to start the thread? Am I correct to put all the threading code in `TimerView`?
Am I correct to add synchronized to all the methods in `TimerThread`?

So I could have a report later and compare it to my phone bill.

My app is like a dashboard from which multiple different "sub-activities" can be started and done. I am wondering what is the best way to structure the app. One way is to have different layouts and load and unload them appropriately. The other is to start new activities using intents. At least this is what I have gathered from what I have read.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've found a few tutorials on how to send/receive text SMS messages, but none on how to send/receive data SMS messages. I have a very small amount of data I would like the users of my app to be able to share.
I am able to send, but my BroadcastReceiver doesn't ever get called. It seems this is a known issue (http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1576) but has anyone figured out how to do this yet?
I tried sending/receiving a text SMS and that works fine, the thing is, I need to specify a port so only my app can listen for the SMS.
My Android main application will consist in a main program, with a few pre-installed modules.Then I want to offer different modules later, best would be as separate files. Modules like: location, weather, agenda.How would you accomplish this?I want to keep in the database the modules that are installed/present. So I must put sometimes the modules into database, maybe by detecting if there are present at launch time. The main app will work based on these modules.How can I build these modules as separate files? They won't be an entry point in my application. So they must not be an application in the navigation menu.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently started programming in Android, and as a beginning project I am trying to build a logo quiz app. The idea: You see a splash screen after opening the app (play game - about). Play game takes you to a new activity called LevelSelector.java where you can choose the level you want to play. Clicking on a level takes you to another new Activity Level.java.I created a SQLite db with 20 questions in it which I install with a DBHelper.java class, every question also has a level column.
However, I get lost in my global structure. Since I work with different levels I don't want to make a new class for every level. I guess I lost the overview due to my lack of programming in android, but I figured the best way to learn it is (after I watched tutorials) to build an app myself..
