Android :: Droid Phone Vibration Doesn't Stop Using Cancel Method / Way To Do
Jul 10, 2010
I wrote some code that mute the phone whenever an incoming call is received.
When the phone in vibrate mode I use the following code to stop the phone vibration:
Vibrator vib = (Vibrator) context.getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
vib.cancel();
While it worked on my Nexus One with android 2.1, it seems that it doesn't stop the vibration on an HTC Desire handset with android 2.1.
Have someone encountered this issue?

I just purchased Touchdown by Nitrodesk (incredible app) and was curious how to get the Droid to stop syncing my emails, etc. through their own method? Please be specific with step-by-step instructions of how to disable my corporate account. I only want to have emails going into the "email" folder that are from my personal email moving forward.

As far as I can tell, AsyncTask's cancel method doesn't work as advertised. I can't tell whether this is a bug, or me not understanding AsyncTask's cancel() method. I'm asking here instead of StackOverflow because I suspect it's a bug.
I understand from past discussions here that cancel() isn't meant to actually kill a thread (though the description of the mayInterruptIfRunning flag sure implies it is). But I'm also checking for isCancelled() (which is returning false), and trying to use the onCancelled callback (which isn't getting called), to no avail.
My situation is that I have a (short-running, one small network call) AsyncTask that begins in my Activity's onCreate. If the user backs out of the screen before it finishes though, I need to either cancel the AsyncTask entirely, or at least make sure its onPostExecute doesn't do any meaningful work.
In my activity's onDestroy handler, I call cancel() on the task, and then inside the task I have an onCancelled handler that sets a boolean. In my onPostExecute handler, I check isCancelled(), and I also check to see whether the boolean has been set from onCancelled, and neither are.
I'm using the debugger, and the order of operations is:
1) onDestroy(), calls task.cancel() 2) task's onPostExecute runs, isCancelled() returns false, so I have no conditional to stop the flow and that's it. onCancelled never runs.
What am I doing wrong here? I can't find any way to tell my task not to run its work in onPostExecute.

Hours later and almost out of power (started out with 75%), I turned the phone off. The email I received had 29 attachments and was 1.9 MB in size, and it loaded fairly quickly. But when I tried to forward it, I gave up after letting it grind away for a few hours. Couldn't figure out how to cancel an out going email, so I turned the phone off, and back on again. That stopped it from forwarding and placed it in the out box. I guess upload speeds with 3G really do suck. I can't wait for 4G. Turning the phone on and off did not stop it from trying to forward. Need help trying to figure out how to stop an outgoing email.

Android doesn't seem to recognize when I am on the phone. While on a call, it still vibrates when I get a text or e-mail. It is loud and annoying. When not on vibrate, it still plays the message received tone, and it is loud too. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

I have unlocked HTC Desire updated to froyo. The problem is when i used the dialpad to call, the phone vibrates. I have switched off the vibrate in text settings and also un-checked the haptic feedback but still it vibrates. Is there any method of switching it off or not?

How do I turn off the vibration notification while I am on a call? If I am on a phone call, and I get a text or email, the phone vibrates. I want this feature of course while I am NOT on a call, but while on a call people on the other end of the call have described it as a duck being murdered. I have tested it myself and cant disagree with them.

I keep my phone near my head on my bed, since I use it as an alarm clock. Unfortunately the Vibrant is vibrating at the end of the charge cycle, which is distracting when I'm trying to fall asleep!
I can't find a setting to turn this off. I have haptic feedback turned off. I keep the phone in vibrate mode (ringer volume = vibrate).

Okay when user presses log out button what's supposed to happen is:
Code:
stopService(myIntent);
unbindService(mConnection);
mIsBound = false;
I need to shut down the service on background.Except the service restarts itself over and over again! Even if I kill the program from task manager the service restarts itself. Other programs aren't using the service. when I uninstalled the program the foreground program information popped up indicating it was STILL there(albeit this I solved by rebooting phone).
When user says he's finished with the program 'least he can expect is for the program to stay down rather than keep eating battery by acquiring GPS signal and sending them to server. The program is not intended to be "once you log in you need to Uninstall me and reboot phone to get rid of me!" type of program!

I recently updated my S3 to run Jelly Bean 4.3, and now when I receive a text it both vibrates and plays the notification sound rather than just the notification sound as it used to. I can't seem to find a way to turn this off?

I don't know what I did, but it seems that my data synch is on non-stop. Maybe I never noticed before but in the notification bar, I see the recycle arrow icon just to the left of 3G and I can't seem to turn it off and my battery is running out faster than normal and the phone is very hot. I have used the Power Widget to power cycle (turn on/off) the data sync to no avail...

I am trying to call my service class's stopService() method from my activity. But I don't know how to access stopservice method from my activity class. I have the below code but its not working. This is HomeScreen class:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
enablecheck = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.enablecheck);
enablecheck.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener(){
@Override
public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(enablecheck.isChecked()){
startService(new Intent(HomeScreen.this, AutoService.class));
} else {
stopService(new Intent(HomeScreen.this, AutoService.class));
} } });
}
This is Service Class:
public class AutoService extends Service {
private static final String TAG = "AutoService";
private Timer timer;
private TimerTask task;
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
} @Override
public void onCreate() {
Toast.makeText(this, "Auto Service Created", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d(TAG, "onCreate");
int delay = 5000; // delay for 5 sec.
int period = 5000; // repeat every sec.
timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task = new TimerTask(){
public void run() {
System.out.println("done");
} }, delay, period);
}
@Override
public boolean stopService(Intent name) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
timer.cancel();
task.cancel();
return super.stopService(name);
} }

In Android when I am adding a view object like ImageView to FrameLayout view and then immediately trying to call layout() method to repositioned the added view object it is not working. But when I call the layout method alone after some new event e.g. touch event then layout() seems to work. This also happens when bringToFront() and layout() is used together, layout() does not seems to work together with other method. Is there any reason why is this like this? Also instead of adding view object in the middle of the screen can it be ADDED at some specific location in FrameLayout?

Just wondering if there is anyway to set my phone in such a way that my ring tone will turn off when I open the phone (either unlock/ do anything to the phone). As it is right now my ring tone (a full mp3 song imported from my pc) will play until I drag down my notification bar. I'm using tone picker and handcent sms if it makes any difference.
Also, is there a way to edit the the keyboard input sound when typing with the stock keyboard?

I updated my phone to 2.1 via the OTA update. Noticed that the really annoying vibration for home, menu, back, and search is finally gone!
But allowing you to turn off all vibration would be just too uncool. So HTC invented yet another !@#$ vibration when the phone connects after you press dial.
Is there a way to turn this off? I looked everywhere but can't find any option to do this.

I turned off the haptic feedback and then later, i realized the 4 menu buttons stopped working too. Then I realized vibrate doesn't work at all! And i also tried a hard reset too. Im guessing its a hardware fault?

When user press log off button following 2 lines should happen:
stopService(myIntent);
unbindService(mConnection);
myIntent is same intent that was used to start service(desperate attempt to get this working). mConnection is basically straight from android's development center.
I have verified that service's onDestroy gets called. There it sets boolean variable true to make Runnable stop it's course(which among itself starts up gps tracking if certain requirements happen), calls the locationManager's removeCallbacks and finally calls super.onDestroy function.
I thought this was supposed to be enough to stop the service from running and acquiring GPS positions(and likely sends them to server too) but the GPS acquiring symbol is STILL blinking. I presume this is not just graphical error by the phone but that it still is searching(and wasting battery).
What have I done incorrectly? What else I need to do to get the service stop when I want? Service dying off when android decides off yet staying up when I'm trying to get it closed.

I'm using a datepicker in Android to let the user to choose the date. I want it to do one thing if the user picks a date and sets it (I have that working fine) and then to clear a certain text field if the user pushes the cancel button on the datepicker (open up the datepicker but then cancel out of it).
The way I've been trying is by making a code...
to attach the listener.
My problem is that the listener works if the user pushes the back button, but not if they push the cancel button. I tried using a dismiss listener, and that works, except for the fact that it goes off even whether I set or cancel the datepicker!
What do I need to do so something goes off if and only if I push the cancel button on my datepicker?

I placed my DINC order Monday and was completely content until my coworker just walked in w/ his Droid X this morning. My biggest qualm beforehand was the size, but now that I hold it in my hands it's not so bad.I've never had an Android device but everyone tells me HTC Sense will blow me away. I need you all to convince me that the X will blow me away (if you do I'll swing by after work and cancel the DINC order and grab a Droid X). I'm not worried about specs and stuff, just user interface. What can I expect to get with the X?

I'm really trying to get the most out of the locale app but whenever I try to make a situation that uses contacts, I get a message that says I don't have any contacts on my phone and that I need to add some. I have plenty of contacts but the app doesn't see them. Anyone have any suggestions or experiencing the same problems?
