I have been a Iphone guy for a while but I am just sick to death of At&t's service. I was just wondering can you download these apps right to your phone or do you have to download to a computer 1st and can you download them to your Apple Laptop?

Why do apps always seem to ask for so many permissions when downloading, I wanted to download a news reader but it wanted access to calls too. Is this normal?

In that function I am doing processing or functionality of downloading, Now I want to show the progress bar in Notification Area Through service, but I can not able to do this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm facing problems downloading games and apps from the android market on my LG Eve (GW620). It says my item will be downloaded, but the bar does not show any percentage (it's remains grey) for a very long time. So far I only succeeded in downloading 3 apps but I still have to wait about 10 minutes. The rest took longer than 10 minutes so I just gave up.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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 {.......................
Trouble downloading android market applications - just starts download but never completes?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have only had my phone for a few days and i'm starting to have some problems with downloading apps. At first I had no problems I downloaded 8 or 9 of them and they installed fine. Then I was not able to download anymore. Each one I tried to download said "download failed and did not install. When I looked at my status bar it showed 10 or 12 apps that did not download. So I did a factory reset and cleared everything out and started again. The same thing happens I get 5 or 6 and then the rest give my error saying not downloaded and not installed. So again I did a factory reset and tried again and came across the same prob. I got a few and then no more. I do not have a data plan yet. So I'm just using the wifi in my house. The ones that did not download i left them over night thinking they might get done by morning but no luck.

View 20 Replies View RelatedI've been having problems downloading apps, and updating apps this past week. Uk T-mobile branded handset, updated to 2.2 a few weeks ago via T-mobile ota update. Also followed the noobs guide to force apps to AD, freeing up some extra ram. Just having issues updating programmes like
Opera Mini
Co pilot
Google Maps
And just tried to install..............
Did a factory reset about 2 hours ago. I have about 200 apps that I had downloaded before and they are all still saying "downloading" in the market. Not a single one has downloaded. I restarted the phone twice since, but they are all still downloading.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I just rooted. I am looking for the sweet apps that everyone talks about busybox, SetCPU, Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, WiFi and Wired Tether, etc. Do I have to sideload these, can I find them in the market? Do I need to download something special from the market?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been having 3G issues on my captivate for a while. I can browse the web just fine and email, text, mms all fine. But downloading apps or things that need continuous internet download (i.e. speed test) will start then stop very slowly. The 3G window in the status bar will then flash occasionally but primarily stay unlit. I've hoped that it would continue to download, but after leaving my phone with the screen off for over an hour with an app downloading (only 2mb) gone from 20kb downloaded to 50kb and my battery went from 80 to 30. This happens for every app I attempt to download over 3G (wifi is perfectly fine) no matter what the size. Any idea why it seems to put the download into the background. I'm currently running cognition mod v2.3b2. This has happened on all versions of cognition I've had. I'm pretty sure it happened while I had stock 2.1 also.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just got HTC Incredible, but am still using my blackberry storm and need to for another week or so - do not want to convert prior to the company moving to google mail. Anyhow, I managed to skip the activation and am playing with the phone on WiFi only - problem - I would love to play with some apps, but cannot figure how to get them to my phone! Googling it did not help me, and all I can see is what the apps are, not how to download them. Going into the "Market" app gives me "A server error occurred".
How the heck can I get some apps and play more with the phone prior to activating with Verizon. So far I am rather impressed with this device! Seems like the hardware/OS works very nice! Browsing, doing email some other things over WiFi is blazing fast, and in general the phone interface seems very nice and intuitive! Way better than by BB Storm! Sorry if the answers are out there - I just did not manage to find the right ones.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have to write an application which starts a service. There will be other applications which have to use the service. Is it possible to write an application that only starts service and finishes with the service running?? How can i communicate from the different applications to the service? Is it possible to expose an interface from the service so that application can pass data to the service?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the difference between 2 ways of interaction between applications on android:
1. implementing service in app #1 and using it in app #2.
2. handling intentions and posting answer intention.
Is it possible to make a service running in backgroud to be notified when an arbritary activity/application is started and ended by a user? I want to use it to log how often and for how long different applications are used in Android.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm getting a WIN DEATH message on shutdown from one of my live wallpapers. Since this occurs at shutdown the user doesn't really notice, it does however reset the lwp to the default paper upon the next restart.
Pertinent log message afaik follows.

As far as I can tell the lwp isn't being destroyed via Engine.onDestroy() on shutdown, I'm not entirely sure what else I need to take care of so that the system can destroy it cleanly at shutdown?
So I'd been wondering why my battery at work doesn't last that long. I knew signal strength was an issue, but then I opened up Spare Parts and checked battery usage. Normally ebuddy is only running when it does quick message checks and has a pretty short partial wake time. Out here where it keeps having to reconnect, the phone has a 100% running time, and ebuddy is always on! Fair warning to all my instant message addicts.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.
My Hero is going haywire. I was trying to download some apps from the market today and they don't want to start. So I rebooted my phone to see if it made any difference. Now when it starts up I get error messages that the com.android.phone and a few others are not working and have to force a close. I have no service either. All the installed apps and components are working but not phone itself. I am with Cellular South in Mississippi and my wife has a Hero also which is working normally so I know it's not a network issue.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI purchased an unlocked new Sony Xperia X10 from overseas because I was told it wasn't going to be released in the US. I had been waiting for the release since I had heard about the production of the phone and so I didn't care so much about the price. However, I recently went to an AT&T store and inadvertently saw my phone there and almost punched the first AT&T rep I saw for lying to me. I remained calm and asked if it was possible to get the AT&T software on my phone instead of the Telstra software applications that are non-functional and cannot be removed. They told me, "no, we dont do that, ask sony." Please, someone tell me I can somehow load the AT&T software to my phone, so I can use the applications that came with the phone, like MySync, Downloads, PlayNow, etc.. I spent so much money on this phone, and now it's available through AT&T for $150 with a 2 year contract; I wouldn't feel as terrible if mine could at least DO everything the AT&T one could.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI used to have a rooted HOX but didn't use a custom ROM. And now, I wanted to do the OTA for 4.2.2 and Sense 5 update, so I did the OTA without unrooting and keep root from onexroot.com, but its showing the red triangle of death. So I did unroot my HOX hoping this will make things better. Yeah, it did relock my fastboot and wipe data to factory settings but when I tried to do the OTA, the red triangle of death is still there.
