Android :: Preferences - How To Load The Default Values When User Hasnt Used Preferences-screen

Apr 22, 2010

I am using a PreferenceActivity to let the user set some values. I am feeding it the xml file with the defined preferences.

I have set all the android:defaultValue="" for them.

When I start my application, I need the preferences, or if they are not set yet manually, I want the default values:

CODE:.................

However, when android:defaultValue="true" I still get false. So, it looks like the defaultValues set in the XML are not used anywhere but when initializing the preferences-screen.

I don't want to hardcode the default values in the getBoolean() method. So, is there a way get the default-values with only defining these in 1 place?

Android : Save Preferences Other Than Shared Preferences?

Mar 19, 2010

My application is used on multiple platforms so it saves it preferences to a file (rather than to the standard Android SharedPreferences).

Is there any easy of reusing the PreferenceActivity to save preferences to a file or is it a case of creating a whole new activity to do the job? If the latter is the case is there a layout I can use that will make the activity look like the normal preferences screen? PreferenceActivity uses com.android.internal.R.layout.preference_list_content but this doesn't appear to be available to apps for reuse.

Android :: User Preferences File Vs App Preferences File

Jun 23, 2010

My android application has two kinds of preferences:

1) I have user preferences defined in res/xml/preferences.xml so that users can manage their preferences with a PreferenceActivity.

2) I'd like to define another file for global configuration preferences of my app.

What is the best way to manage my app config preferences? Should I create another XML file with config values or should I specify those config values in strings.xml? What is the best practice for managing config preferences?

Android :: Embedded Hardware Devices?

Sep 1, 2009

I'm playing around with an idea in the back of my head, was wondering if there were any Android devices that had touchscreen and wifi - no other requirements necessary. The GiiNii Movit Mini is as close to what I'm looking for as I can find. Are there hardware vendors that make custom Android products such as this? Inexpensive, ARM or MIPS, run Android, touchscreen, wifi, that's it.

Android :: Getting WAP Embedded Video And Iphone?

Jun 14, 2010

Recently a client asked me to make their site "work on smart phones", which normally wouldn't be too much of an issue... However it's a video site, and I have absolutely no idea where to even begin. Right off the bat I'm not even going to consider allowing the site to even function in anything other than Android (Maybe even 2.0+) and iPhone, maybe Blackberry and WinMo. But beyond that... What do I do? I'm looking at using the tag, however I'm unsure what, if any, codecs which phone uses. Is HTML5 even adopted in their browsers yet?

Could someone please point me in the right direction? Am I going about this the right way, using the tag? Or is there some magical html element both iPhone and Android (And BB and WMo) that lets them run video in their native video players (Like on youtube).

Android :: Cheap Embedded Phone - M2M Device?

May 4, 2010

I'm playing around with some ideas and was wondering if anyone knew of an Android-based device that was basically a cell-phone with no screen.

Here's the requirements I'm looking for: - Support GSM - Single SIM slot or eSIM (3G preferred but not required) - Support GPS - Support BlueTooth - Optionally have an accelerometer - No display (this is an embedded device) - Would be willing to provide my own packaging (raw boards would be ok) I've debated taking the guts out of old G1s for this project. But if there is a specific device that meets my needs all the better. If there's any Manufacturers out there that have Android phone "guts" available, let me know too.

Android :: Engadget App - Play The Embedded Videos?

Oct 21, 2010

I love using the Engadget app on my Desire to keep up with daily news, but no matter what I try I cannot watch the embedded videos within the stories.....

The ones that link to YouTube are fine as you can choose the browser or the YouTube app.

But their native videos don't play for me. I currently get the choice of viewing through double twist or streaming media player, both of which say "Sorry, this video cannot be played".

Anyone any idea what format these endgadget videos are in? And how I can get the engadget app to choose a player capable of playing them?

Android :: Embedded Webview Crashes On Dialog

Aug 18, 2009

I have an application that uses the webview to load webpages so user can download media off them, but i get a crash when any sort of popup tries to show (eg from a select box or save password dialog) - the error is that for some reason the webview doesnt provide the new dialog with the application context (even though it as passed to the webview component when it was created).

Is there some method to use to supply the application context to dialogs launched from the webview?

Android :: Which Window-toolkit To Use For Embedded Linux

Sep 4, 2009

I am using embedded-linux for device which has Arch ARMv5 Speed 266MHZ, vfpu and 32bit bus, 32MB 133 Mhz DDR Ram. can you tell me which windowing system should I use,

1).QT for embedded linux
2). Android.
3). Other!

Well, I am using microwindows for last one year and not satisfied with it as it does not have BSP (Binary Space Partitionin) in its windowing system , No shared memory support for bitmaps. I think Microwindows is just optimized for memory-size not for speed.

Android :: Search Engine App In Perst 4.0 Embedded Database?

Jan 26, 2009

Looking for a way to integrate full-text search and fast, lightweight data management with your Android applications? The new Perst 4.0 open source, object-oriented embedded database system brings native full-text search capability to Android and builds on this feature to provide a sample search engine application for contact data residing on mobile phones.

To provide search, the database stores an inverse index of keywords, with parsing and stemming of indexed text performed either by user- defined code or by Perst's default simple parser and stemmer. The feature supports logical operators and calculates relevance of search results to a query. The new sample application, ContactsIndex, stores and indexes contact information, and could be extended to provide search capabilities for PDF, word processing, HTML and other stored files. The example applications are included with complete source code in the Perst 4.0 for Java distribution..............

I have an ActivityGroup with an embedded TabActivity and another simple Activity.

The TabActivity has three tabs, each one with a ListActivity.

When I try to start a search from a list (calling onSearchRequested()), I get a WindowManager$BadTokenException.

I've tried requesting focus in the list, but the same error occurred.

Android :: Static Data Structures On Embedded Devices

May 2, 2010

I've started working on some Android applications and have a question regarding how people normally deal with situations where you have a static data set and have an application where that data is needed in memory as one of the standard java collections or as an array.

In my current specific issue i have a spreadsheet with some pre-calculated data. It consists of ~100 rows and 3 columns. 1 Column is a string, 1 column is a float, 1 column is an integer. I need access to this data as an array in java.

It seems like i could:

1) Encode in XML - This would be cpu intensive to decode in my experience.

2) build into SQLite database - seems like a lot of overhead for static access to data i only need array style access to in ram.

3) Build into binary blob and read in. (never done this in java, i miss void *)

4) Build a python script to take the CSV version of my data and spit out a java function that adds the values to my desired structure with hard coded values.

5) Store a string array via androids resource mechanism and compute the other 2 columns on application load. In my case the computation would require a lot of calls to Math.log, Math.pow and Math.floor which i'd rather not have to do for load time and battery usage reasons.

I mostly work in low power embedded applications in C and as such #4 is what i'm used to doing in these situations.

It just seems like it should be far easier to gain access to static data structures in java/android.

Perhaps I'm just being too battery usage conscious and in my single case i imagine the answer is that it doesn't matter much, but if every application took that stance it could begin to matter.

General :: Build Android Against Embedded Glibc Instead Of Bionic?

Nov 17, 2013

I was wondering if it is possible to build/compile the Android OS against embedded glibc instead of bionic?

Has it been done?

What would some forseeable problems be, as in, would much Android code need to be modified to utilize glibc properly , and would existing proprietary firmware bug out if glibc was inplace instead of bionic?

General :: Airplay Android Embedded Video In Webpage

Jul 30, 2013

I have just moved across from an iPad to the nexus 7. Firstly I love the nexus 7, but there is one thing I just can't get it to do, that is to stream an embedded video to a dlna server or xbmc or boxes box or apple TV. Now I know there are a lot of apps out there to stream like airplay on the iPad, and I have bubbleupnp working really well at streaming from either videos on my nexus or even from my NAS through the nexus to the TV. But I watch a lot of series online and sometimes want to watch them on the TV rather than on the 7 inch screen. Now my iPad showed the airplay icon and boom onto thetv via xbmc, but if I try the same on my android, I can't! Any apps that would do this? The closest I have come is twonky beam but even that can't see the embedded video as the iPad could?

Android :: Change Backround Of View Embedded In ListView Item

Oct 22, 2009

I have a ListView backed by customized ArrayAdapter where each item has 2 LinearLayouts - one I call head, and the other one - body. The body is hidden (gone) until user clicks on the row at which time it slides out. The second click (on the head) will hide the body. However if user clicks on the body it brings another activity. All of this works just fine, here comes the problem.When user presses on body I want a visual indication of the action just the same way as regular list item will flicker an orange background when pressed. I'm not getting this by default since (my theory) the onPress event is intercepted by body's view and not processed by the list item.The first thing I tried was to execute body.setBackground('#ff00ff') (never mind the color) in onPress event. That didn't work since (I suspect) there's no repainting after the call. Then I dig a little bit more and decided to use <selector/>-based background. I defined body_background.xml in drawable folder and assigned that to the body's background property.

There I noticed that background will only change if the even is processed by the list. For example if I set <item android:state_selected="true" android:drawable="@drawable/selected"/> then when I press on the head - the background of both elements (head and body) will change, however when I press on body - nothing. So to summarize my question.how do I change background of the child element in the list item if I assign custom onClick handler to it?

Android :: Pass In Object Java Class Embedded In As Parameter

Apr 19, 2010

I'm building an android application, which has a list view, and in the list view, a click listener, containing an onItemClick method. So I have something like this:

public class myList extends ListActivity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
getListView().setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
/* Do something*/
}
}
}

Normally, this works fine. However, many times I find myself needing too preform an application using the outer class as a context. thusfar, I've used: parent.getContext(); to do this, but I would like to know, is that a bad idea? I can't really call: because it's not really a subclass, just an embedded one. So is there any better way, or is that considered cosure? Also, if it is the right way, what should I do if the embedded method doesn't have a parameter to get the outside class?

Android :: RTL Support - Digits Embedded In A Right To Left Sentence - Hebrew

Apr 6, 2010

My application displays Hebrew text which comes from a Web Service. When a sentence contains digits (in the middle of it), the digits appear in a mirror view: 29 appears as 92, 21:45 appears as 54:12 and 2,000 appears as 000,2.

Also, when a sentence starts with digits or English characters, they get thrown to the end of the sentence messing it all up... Is RTL support in Android still immature?
