Android : Get Package Version Information To Display In An "About" Message
Apr 9, 2010
I have been struggling with getting the versionName for a running application from the PackageInfo Object type. I have constructed a Parcelable Interface with all of the fields associated with the PackageInfo Object type. The primary input for that interface method is a Parcel object.
I cannot seem to figure out how to correctly associate these Parcelable, Parcel, and PackageInfo objects.
Is there any sample code out there that I can look at? Doesn't seem like it should be that difficult but it seems to be stumping me.

I developed a Android-Homescreen-Widget and got a weird problem: The "Open"-Button in the Market grayed out because there is actually no Application to launch. So, many people complain because they don't realize that my package is a widget. They even give me a bad rating and I want to avoid that by giving the people a hint what they should do. A first-line-hint in the description (written in Uppercase) didn't help at all, so I'm searching for a better solution. Is it possible to display a message directly after the installation of a package in the android-market?

I think I am ready for some testers for a GPS Golf application. This will be my first Android application so I am looking for someone that is a little tech savvy (knows how to install 3rd party application etc..). The application right now is fairly simple, but it does display some GPS information.I currently don't have an Android device (working on it) so if you don't even golf and just want to help out a developer then that would be great to!I can send a link to the apk file from an email or a PM.Just post to this thread or send me an email at howfarami [at] gmail [dot] com.

I am facing one problem in message view. Bacically what I need to do is in message view I want to mark any telephone number or web address in different color. Can anyone please tell me where exactly the text is been written in Message View? On clicking this items it should launch appropriate event. If anyone touches a telephone number it should launch the dialer or if it is a valid email address then it should launch the Compose message event and so on.
Another question is whether to display message is Android uses the WebView?

I would like to have a Toast Message appear while my app is downloading information but even if I put it before my code it doesn't appear until after the download has completed. Putting my code in a separate thread causes many headaches but putting toast in a separate thread doesn't work either. Is there anyway I can have this Toast message come up before this or am I just going to have to work through the headaches?

I am trying to display a filtered version of the camera preview.
The code runs without errors but the device is showing the preview instead of the generated bitmap.
This is the code for my (very small) Activity: http://code.google.com/p/ruellia/source/browse/ruellia/src/br/com/ximp/ruellia/RuelliaActivity.java
I suspect the view layering and the surface holder type, but so far no luck... anyone?

For an example of what I'm looking for, hit the Home button while you're composing a message in the Gmail app. A little message will pop up at the bottom of the screen for a moment that says "Message saved as Draft."
I can't figure out how to display one of those messages myself, and I'm not sure what to call it so I can't do a search for it.

I looked for any information about onTap event processing for itemized overlays in this group. There is a lot of useful information but I could not find the answer to one question.
The tutorial by Mark Murphy on itemized overlays, http://androidguys.com/?p=1413
describes how to generate a Toast message whenever an onTap event occurs. In his case, the custom itemized overlay activity is included in the main activity. In my case, it is not. My custom itemized overlay activity is included in the application package as a public activity.
This means that the line Toast.makeText(NooYawk.this, items.get(i).getSnippet(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); will not work "as is".
I have had trouble in correctly identifying the context for the Toast. Attempts to use the main class' (the one calling the custom itemized overlay class) context have not worked. I would appreciate it if anyone could suggest how I could resolve this issue. Incorporating the custom itemized overlay class in the main class is not a desirable option.
Alternatively, I would appreciate any suggestions for generating a display of the title and/or snippet information for markers on a map.
The onTap event works fine (Log.i statements in the onTap method display the correct information for each marker tapped)

I am a Mac user (photographer/ videographer). I also rely heavily on my iPod Touch when mobile (i can often find a wifi signal when i am out and about). I use iCal on the Touch and iCal on my Mac as well as the address book on both everyday and as a Mobile Me user, my two devices sync so everything is mirrored and up to date. I also HATE AT&T for their terrible signal strength and coverage and have been a loyal Verizon customer for many years and this is why I don't have an iPhone. Okay, all that being said, is there an easy way to still use everything I love and rely on with my Mac (the calender and address book, mainly) and easily sync all of my existing information and future info to an Android based device? How easy is it to use an Android device with a Mac? I don't want to have to manually re-enter my entire address book into a new device.

i work on custom Application Manager and try to get the disk usage of installed package. So PackageManager.getpackageSizeInfo was removed from SDK on 0.9->1.0 update android.content.pm. PackageStats(String pkgName)(cacheSize, codeSize, dataSize) returns always "0" Size of phys. file (java.io.File) in "/data/app" seems wrong/not completely. Has anybody any solution to get the total disc space used by an installed package?

I have am in the UK and have a UK unbranded and stock SIMFREE SGS. I'm just tring to install Froyo but keep getting the message "The device's version cannot be updated."
I applied RyanZA's One Click Lag Fix a while ago which worked fine and more recently tried updating the registry hack a couple of weeks ago.
Currently the latest Kies xxxx100 says:
Current Version: PDA:JM2 / PHONE:JM1 / CSC:JM1
I never managed to complete the hack despite adjusting th PC's registry initially to the Scandi version.
My registry editor reads -
Product Code: GT-I9000HKDXEU
Software Revision: I9000XWJM2/I9000XEEJM1/I9000XXJM1/I9000XWJM2
HIDSWVER: I9000XWJM2/I9000XEEJM1/I9000XXJM1/I9000XWJM2
I believe I uninstalled all the OCLF tools and then uninstalled the OCLF program itself.
