Jul 29, 2010

Is there any documentation on the filesystem used for Android? I'm talking about an explanation of the contents of /dev or /etc, and not YAFFS or whatever.

Android : Load Class From Internet Filesystem In Phone?

Aug 30, 2010

Is it posible to load a class from the internet in Android? My app would download a class with some data, save it on sdcard, and then load the class. I want this because loading data via classloader is much faster then from a file.

Samsung Captivate : Filesystem Access Options / Phone Connectivity

Aug 4, 2010

I'm a big fan of just having direct access to my devices (i.e., no sync, no "management" front end). So this isn't about local access from the device (using MyFiles or Astro), but from a PC in the same location (so not like 3G remote). So far I've explored these options: USB Connect phone, mount from notification menu, and there you go. Bluetooth Pair phone, use "send file" from PC BT app (running in system tray).

Files drop into a 'bluetooth' directory, ready to move/use. Android Web OS Very beta-esque right now, but runs as a service on the phone, then you can access the filesystem (and SMS, eventually other functions). You can copy up to the phone or download (basically via a simple web mechanism). Use across Another service on the phone, a basic FTP server accessible across WiFi.

Works pretty good so far, I created a 'network location' in Windows, then a shortcut on my desktop into my MP3 directory on /sd. So I just open that folder, copy over MP3s. Doesn't matter where the phone is currently sitting or connected. For the services type options, I'm going to check out something like Locale or Tasker, when I can trigger the service to fire up based on a rule (a specific WiFi network trigger would be outstanding).

Android :: How To Navigate Phone SDK Documentation Online For Multiple Releases?

Apr 18, 2009

Going forward will Android maintain the sites for multiple SDKs that might be in use. For example at this very moment there may development teams that are working on 1.0, 1.1 and possibly 1.5. If the main site carries documentation only for 1.1 (current release) will Android make an effort to make the documentation available online for both 1.1 and 1.5 simultaneously when 1.5 is released? Or the online docs only reflect the current release?

Connected Android Phone To PC Via USB - Getting Directory Contents

Dec 3, 2011

I connected my android phone to my PC via USB cable and created a folder and file at "F:/Android/mymusic/so_happy.mp3". What I am trying to with my program on the phone is to list the contents of "F:/Android/mymusic/" (however that is represented on the device, I think it is something like /mnt/sdcard/Android/mymusic/ but that is not working). So far I am not getting anywhere. A listing of my code is posted below. Basically what it does is checks the directory for file contents, stores it in an arraylist of strings, and then is added to a spinner. So far, files is always null and "song0" and "song1" just get added to the spinner. What I want is to see "so_happy.mp3" there instead.

Code:
public class AndroidSimpleMusicPlayerActivity extends Activity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

[Code] ......

Android :: SD Without FAT Filesystem

Sep 16, 2010

Is there a cogent reason why the SD card cannot be partitioned without a FAT32 filesystem? From all the benchmarks I've ever seen, EXT4 kills FAT32. However, when I tried using an SD card partitioned with only an EXT4 partition, vold (the volume management daemon) wasn't happy at all. can manually mount the volume from the shell, but that does no good as far as android recognizing that the partition has been mounted.I'd be willing to hack up the vold source code if it would be useful, but I just want to know if anyone has any thoughts or experience on the issue.

Android : Sd Card - Unsupported Filesystem / Unable To Format

Apr 9, 2010

Everytime I start my phone up it says the SD card is or has unsupported filesystem. When you click on it.. it asks to format... you click "format" and then the phone just freezes. If I receive a picture in a txt and I click on it, the phone freezes. When I plug my phone into the computer through the USB cable, mount, and try to format it through the computer it says windows is unable to complete the format. I've reset the phone to factory reset also, no luck.

Android : Show Pictures In WebView That Aren't In Filesystem

Aug 31, 2010

How can I show pictures in WebView without saving images into file system?

I have tried to implement my custom Content Provider, but method openFile returns ParcelFileDescriptor that points into filesystem (or socket). My pictures are in filesystem, but in encrypted form.

I have tried also URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory, but in android java it is useless (because custom streamHandler can be register in jvm that is not allowed). I also try html code "img src="data:image.gif;base64,R0lGODlhiAAkAMQAANOOk...", but in embedded chrome it's not working.

HTC Desire :: Phone Or Reader To View And Access Contents Of Sdcard?

Aug 6, 2010

I know there are already alot of apps to protect the phones and its contents BUT is there anything stopping a thief from simply taking out the sdcard and putting it in another phone or reader to view and access the contents of the sdcard? If you plan on storing personal info on the card, whether it'd be photos / files etc It would be really good to know that even if the sdcard is taken they still cannot access the info. I would've thought this is a pretty common request. something like trycrypt or storage crypt for the microsd card would be really good.

Android : Accessing Sdcard File System Through Dev Machine Filesystem?

May 9, 2009

Is it possible to access the filesystem of an sdcard image through something like Windows Explorer?

i.e. mount the sdcard as a drive or web folder or something. I have some xml files stored on my sdcard image which I frequently want to edit.

Ideally I would like to be able to edit these files directly using my fave xml editor (either through the filesystem or webdav).But is this possible?

If not, is the only alternative to pull the xml file from the sdcard to the dev machine filesystem, edit and the push it back?

Android : Database Vs Filesystem / Gallery App For Holding List View Of Pictures

Apr 13, 2010

I am new on android and building an application which uses webservice to collect user information in XML. I also get path for a small jpeg picture of each user. (Currently there are about 200 users) I am parsing the XML and storing the information in SQLiteDatabase. Pictures are stored as blob and able to retrieve them.

I display names of users on listview with images as well. But is this a good solution for storing pictures in SQLite Database ? or should consider storing it in file system ? Which is suitable in terms of performance , as well as memory and any other pro and cons on Android.

Also like to know which is best performing XML parser for Android ?

My purpose is only to parse xml files which I get through web services and sort out the data to store in storage. And lastly my memory goes off easily when I load all images to display in list view after making thumbnails of each (which is obvious).

Was wondering is there any library/framework/app available which dynamically loads images as and when required (when that list item is on display) something like Gallery program ?

HTC Desire : Need To Know My Partition - Filesystem / Left Space For App?

Sep 15, 2010

Im totally new to the smartphone/android topic and very happy that i managed to partition/debrand/root my Desire and flashed LeDroids Rom on it! ^^ ( im a windows XP user )But i have some questions about my partition and filesystem: I have a 4 GB SDCARD and a 512MB Partition on it for the apps. So i figured out there is a mnt folder that seems to be like an exact copy of my SDCARD folder.

How do i know what my partition is ?

And how do i know how much space is left there for Apps?

When i plug in my Phone via micro usb and browse my SD card i dont see a MNT folder. Does that mean the MNT folder is the main partition (3,5bg?) ? Because when i download a youtube video via jetVD (i was prompted to use a download folder on my SDCARD) it saves the videos under: mntsdcardmovies (also my player shows the path to that directory)but the movie files are also available under: sdcardmovies

Could somebody explain that. btw: i use the app SUFBS to browse the SDCARD on my Desire.

HTC Incredible : Filesystem Stock OS Basics / Which Source File Used?

Oct 29, 2010

I have a couple basic questions I'm hoping I can get answered before I start messing around with different ROMs/Radios/Kernels. Before I rooted, when I felt like things were getting cluttered or had an OCD attack, I would do a factory reset. How does that work?

What "source" files are used? Is the emmc directory the only directory not "cleaned" in a factory reset? Keep in mind I'm used to my workstation/laptop experience where I would format, then install a clean version of the OS from a CD/DVD and then I would install 3rd party apps and move my data back?

Any analogies would help my simple mind! One day I did a factory reset, the decided to root. Everything went perfect. I moved some bloatware to an apps.disabled directory, then did all my customizing again. Now I want to play with different ROMs. I do however want to hedge my bets in case I ever want to go back to where I am today. I've done a clockworkmod backup.

Does that essentially copy all the phone storage (except SD Card data) over to the SD Card? If not, what is left behind. Will a clockworkmod wipe erase ALL of the on board phone storage (except the SD Card data)?

Android :: Documentation Does Not Specify When An API Was Added

May 1, 2009

I noticed WebView seemed to have some new methods I didn't remember from before. Unfortunately I can't tell exactly which ones are new, without actually trying them and waiting for the SDK to catch the mistake.Could the docs please state in which API release a method, class, interface, enum etc was added? This is pretty fundamental to know when trying to figure out how to implement something.

Android :: Documentation - Especially In The Dev Guide Category

Oct 6, 2009

I have been using the Android documentation for a few days now, and it is quite good and easy to read. Apart from that I noticed that I missed something, and now I found out what it is: Examples and comments.

If you look at the PHP documentation (e.g. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php for the PHP substr() function) you will see many syntax-highlighted examples and comments by users.

Of course there are examples in the Android documentation, especially in the Dev Guide category - they just are not at the right place if one searches the reference for a specific method or functionality. What do you think about this?
