setprop net.dns1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
from an android activity but i can't find a working way to do it. How can i execute this command from the application?
For example, is there any way to define a service to run as 'system' UID or GID?Or any way to add your app to the 'system' group?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn the documentation, I read that it is not possible for executing 2 Async Tasks. If execute is called again, it should throw an exception.
The following is given under the heading of "Threading Rules", and i quote:
"The task can be executed only once (an exception will be thrown if a second execution is attempted.)"
I wish to understand the meaning of this statement.
Does this mean, that if i try and execute the same task twice (concurrently) when the first execution of the task was still going on...an exception will be thrown ? Will i need to wait for the completion of the first task, before i spawn a second task ?
A possible use case:
The user wishes to download a set of files. He clicks on the download button by providing the URL. When the first download is still going on, he wishes to download another file and provides another URL. Both these user actions are serviced by a DownloadTask, that extends the AysncTask.
If i wish to change this default behavior, is there a configuration option?
I am devoloping an application of image editor. I always do it by using the resources in the drawable carpet. Now I changed it to use the resources in the SD card. I don't change the code of the image access but the program always produce an error if I intent to set the value of a pixel. The program works correctly if I try to read the pixel but if I try to modify it fails. I think this is a permissions error but I added the following: <uses-permission android:name="com.android.editorImagenes.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></ uses-permission> <uses-permission android:name="com.android.editorImagenes.permission.WRITE_OWNER_DATA"></ uses-permission> And everything remains exactly the same. I'm desperate. A thing happens is that if I try to do the scaling or rotating the image using a matrix postrotate, etc, the program works correctly and as of this moment I can use the SetPixel without causing error.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've a lot of initialization code in my main activity's onCreate(). When I launch my game, the screen goes black for a long time, then my game appears. I did logged some message at the start and end of onCreate() and found that onCreate() is executing its code while the screen is black. Sometimes the screen goes black for too long and phone shows a popup dialog prompting me to choose between Force close/Wait. Then when onCreate() is completed, my game appears. Choosing 'Wait' then dismiss the dialog.
I tried using progress dialog described in this article:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#ProgressDialog
But it doesn't work. The screen goes black for the same amount of time even after I use the progress dialog.
I would like to a WebView to run some JavaScript before loading the rest of the page. This JavaScript should run in the same context of the page, just as if extra <script> content were added before any other <script> content. This is not possible with add Java script Interface() since I want to set up some instance variables, before the page scripts are run, so that the page scripts can use them.

How would I force the current thread to wait until another has finished before continuing. In my program the user selects a MODE from an AlertDialog, I want to halt executing of the program before continuing as the mode holds important configuration for the gameplay.
new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
.setItems(R.array.game_modes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
switch (which) {
case 0:
setMode(TRAINING_MODE);
case 1:
setMode(QUIZ_MODE);
default:
setMode(TRAINING_MODE);
break; ............
//continue loading the rest of onCreate();
contineOnCreate(); } })
.create().show();
If this is impossible can anyone give a possible solution?
Trying to root my Hero for the first time. I am downloading the InstantRoot.apk.zip file, extracting it to InstantRoot.apk, which I then copy to the root folder of the phones sdcard.
When I try to execute it, using Astro, and choose "Open App Manager", it says "Could not open /sdcard/InstantRoot.apk as a APK file". What am I doing wrong? Is it maybe the unzipping that causes it?
I am trying to execute a {public void} method in Service, from scheduled TimerTask which is periodically executing.This TimerTask periodically checks a condition. If it's true, it calls method via {className}.{methodName};However, as Java requires, the method needs to be {pubic static} method, if I want to use {className} with {.dot}.The problem is this method is for notification using Toast(Android pop-up notification) and Status Bar.But for this to work, the method must not have {static} modifier and resides in Service class.So, basically, I want background Service to evaluate condition from scheduled TimerTask, and execute a method in Service class.Can anyone help me what's the right way to use Service, invoking a method when certain condition is satisfied while looping evaluation?
View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know whether there is an app that could automatically switch between 2G-3G? Or if anyone is working on such app. Idea would be that user could define which apps can activate 3G mode ie. browser, etc that require higher speed and after application quit's (for example with automated task killer) the phone would switch back to 2G. This would save battery without a hassle to switch manually. I know that there are widgets that takes you to switch option with few clicks, but still. Is there any technical issue that would prevent to make such app? I am not a programmer so take it easy.

I'm developing an application that will most likely be preinstalled on devices. It will be also available on Market. Is there a way to update those instances that are not downloaded through Market, since Market won't notify users about an update. I was thinking about, as suggested here, trying to contact my site periodically, and when update is available, download it. I'm wondering if there is a way to do this update automatically, so that user doesn't have to do anything (like running the package manually). Or, when my site shows update is available, to offer users an update through Market, even though it's not installed through Market. EDIT: This Market option would be preferable, because than users wouldn't have to check "allow install of non-Market sources".
