Android :: Displaying Real Time Information During The Execution Of An Activity
Apr 6, 2009
I want to display the status of the activity execution on the screen using the TextView while activity is executing. I am appending the String messages at different stages of execution in the TextView, which is defined in the Layout main.xml (e.g. TextView.append("Server started..").
For e.g. I am running socket communication application in which my android application is the server and it is receiving the messages from the local desktop. So in this application I want to show "Server started.." message when socket server on android started , then a messge "waiting for message.." and then "message receivied.." when message received by android server.All 3 steps are the part of a single activity.
But in my case, I am getting all 3 messages at a time after activity execution completed. Is there any API available, using which I can show the status during the execution also.

What is the easiest to time execution in Android?
I have looked around a bit and I found TimingLogger on the Android SDK, and instructions here. It looks very convenient. But I can't get it work. This is my code:
CODE:................
It's is supposed to dump the times in in LogCat. But I can't see nothing.. I What am I doing wrong? Eclipse doesn't show any varnings. I guess it has something with verbose ouput, but I have set LogCat to show Verbose.

I am using Eclipse for Android development and Latest version of Android SDK (Running XP, 2Gb Ram)
1. when run clicked, previously executed emulator appears first then emulator default screen appears, only last current actual output appears
2. when clicked to close takes too much time (2 mns) for the emulator to disapper
3. in short execution time exceeds development/coding time in the testing process
is anyway to reduce such execution time

I need test my Android app on a Motorola Cliq but don't have one. Is there a testing service that will let me make a debug connection to that device so I can run some tests and find out where the code is failing. Video connections won't tell me that.

I have a ImageView acting as a top banner on top of a webview. The image of this banner is created in execution time dependending on the resolution of the device. The height of the banner is always the same for each resolution. The only thing that changes is the width, which changes according to the orientation. But, since the width changes and the height doesn't, I end up having sort of 2 images with different proportion. And this is way the scale down/up won't work out for me.
Another problem is that everytime the user rotates the screen, the banner image is created again but Android seems not to update the image and thus I have a banner missing part of it.
I thought about having a real big image that will fit for both landscape and portrait orientation. But this seems not to be a good idea since Android keeps resizing the image everytime so it will fit on the space of the ImageView.
I'm running out of ideas here. Can someone suggest something?

In my application when a user clicks on a button I want to open the contacts application and display a particular contacts information. At the minute I have this:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, People.CONTENT_URI);
startActivity(intent);
This displays the contact application with all the contacts displayed. But how do I get it to display just one contact according to the contacts name or number?
This Code works: (answer)
Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(People.CONTENT_URI, 23);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, contactUri);
startActivity(intent);

After a round of hassle (many thanks to sontaikle), finally i managed to do some screen capture from my Android but right now I am thinking about this. Is there any way I can do a REAL TIME phone simulation on my PC. Its alike TV output from phone to projector (Galaxy S can do that) but I have other Android which have no TV output function from the phone, so I wonder if I connect the phone to PC and get the real time screen output (few second lagging is ok for me as well) to PC than I can project it out via projector during discussion, presentation. I have tried this Emulator, too bad its doesn't project that on the phone on PC. How to install Android SDK and play with Android 2.0 in the emulator - Android and Me

I need to load an audio resource and play it, but I also need to be able to modify some parameters (like the volume, or the playback rate) while the audio is being played. For example, I might want to play a 10 seconds audio stream, and change the volume only after 3 seconds. Is there a way to do it? I've been experimenting a little with AudioTrack without results.

I'm trying to figure out how to write an app that can decode audio morse code on the fly. I found this document which explains how to record audio from the microphone in Android. What I'd like to know is whether it's possible to access the raw input from the microphone or whether it has to be written/read to a file.

I am currently trying to braodcast real time voice from Android using RTP to other Android phones connected over Wifi Ad-hoc network. I have few questions in this regard,
1. How to control and set the RTP on Android? 2. Which Codec are supported by Android for voice communication? and how to incorporate them?
We are able to record a voice from microphone and store it on SD card for a playback. The next step would be to link the outstream of real time voice with RTP also incorporating Codec

I was wondering why Android keeps lagging a bit. I mean, quadcore should be fast enough to stop that from happening right? So I started Googling.
I got this article: [URL] .....
Basically it says this: Android's UI rendering thread does not work in real-time (the priority is not set at that), unlike iOS'. It's just about the one thing that's still better about iOS in my opinion.
How to make this thread render in real-time?

I know you can apply Permissions for Applications on it's manifest.xml file. What I want to know is, can those Permissions be adjusted by the Applications on the fly?Here's my reason: say I have an application that is allowed to do "x", "y", and "z" (SMS, sockets, etc) Permissions. Now lets say I have a logical "user" that connects to this Application, and I want that user to only be able to do "x" and "y", but not "z" Permissions. It would be nice to have the Android Framework handle that instead of having a bunch of "if's" in the App code.

I developed and published a game about two months ago. Since then, I've received several negative comments about input lag in the game. Before releasing the game, I already took several measures to hopefully prevent lag from occurring: 1) Game is almost entirely written in native code 2) After initialization, my process never invokes the GC during gameplay (no GC executions from my process show up in the log) 3) Average FPS is generally > 30 fps 4) I tested the game on both a Motorola Milestone and an HTC Magic and I don't experience any noticeable input lag (except perhaps when the GC is executed by other processes) My guess is that the lag that users are experiencing is a result of the GC being invoked by another process. Has anyone been able to address this issue? Specifically, have any game developers been able to achieve a completely lag-free game and thus avoid negative ratings that drag down your app? The only other suspicious thing I've noticed is the following lines showing up in my log any time a SoundPool clip is played: D/AudioHard wareMot ( 1054): AudioMgr:AudioStreamOutMot::standby called D/AudioHardwareMot( 1054): AudioMgr:Output 0xb538 entering standby D/AudioHardwareMot( 1054): AudioMgr:Closing stereo device D/AudioHardwareMot( 1054): AudioMgr:Output 0xb538 exiting standby

I need to make a video as a DEMO for one application I have developed. I know that there are some experimental applications that use DDMS and achieve a framerate of 5-6 fps. This framerate is completely insufficient for my purposes since the application has smooth animations that i would like to show. Is there anyone that has found a way to do a real time screen capture on android? Should I settle for a capture of the emulator or a real video done with a real camera?

i need to know about the LocationListener() working in the real time. Does it expect the user(device) to move in order to update the current location details or it automatically updates when ever the gps is enabled? Another query is regarding the getLastKnownLocation(). When is that last known location will be lost and thus returns null... (in realtime).

I would like to know if somebody knows a library to changing the playback rate of a track in real time. My idea is to load a track and change its playback rate to half or double. Firstly, I tried with MusicPlayer but is was not possible at all and then I tried with SoundPool. The problem is that with SoundPool I cant change the rate once the track is loaded. Here is the code I am using (proof of concept): Code...

I first have to say that I'm biased, 'cus I like to write music apps (like music generation apps). However, this affects games as well. It's somewhat disappointing how OpenGL has made it into the NDK now but there isn't any NDK methods to get to sound to have faster access. Over the weekend I did some more testing and if you make a "drum" app, for example, and play the sound using either SoundPool or AudioTrack, you will get about a 100ms delay buffer, which is clearly audible (gap).
I made a test app where when you touch the screen, upon the DOWN event, it would play a short sound (like a drum sound). It clearly was not real time responsive or even close - you could hear the delay. I'd be interested to know if anyone who has made a game has any trouble with sounds? It seems like they aren't going to really trigger real time enough if you use SoundPool, for example. Am I completely wrong? Seems like your game is going to perform an action, play a sound, but the sound will have latency which I would think would throw off the game a bit..................

I am looking to see if anyone knows of an app in the market that would be able to give me real time traffic updates on traffic jams, construction, accident ahead and perhaps offer an alternate route to bypass it. Can Google MAPS do this? If not, is there an app in the market that can do this? I am hitting the road tomorrow for a road trip and that would come in handy!

Now I write one app and have some problem - I need to show real-time outgoing call duration. But I do not know when I should start timer. I must start when get answer from other side. I tried TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_OFFHOOK -- but it's state is when I press call-button..
OFFHOOK is the state when call is placed.
So we should be notified when the call is received. How can we get that?
When I should start count outgoing time?
