Having some trouble getting handcent configured right. I want it to only show the notification in the top status bar and the dock. I do not want the popup window. Can someone tell me which settings to use? I have tried everything and cannot get it right.

Where should I store my Android application's configuration settings? Coming from the .NET world I was expecting something like .config. Do I create a file under res/values, and use that?

Since I automatically filter lots of email into subfolders, it's a pain to manually refresh each of them to see if I have new mail. Maybe I'm just missing a configuration setting.

For my android application I want to generate multiple binaries from common source code and resources. Also looking out for way for doing preprocessing of Java source code. This is something which is very much straight forward in Netbeans using Project configuration. Is there any equivalent way available in Eclipse to achieve this ? Are there any plugins for such things?
Had my DHD for a week now, but haven't been able to receive or send MMS messages. That seems to include messages containing settings from T-mobile too. Tried my SIM in my old C905 and could send MMS message fine. The support lady from T-mobile said that I've got to take it to the T-mobile shop as it could be a hardware problem.

When I go to settings - settings download - choose Tmobile it just says could not download settings. Retry? I've called already to Tmobile support and spent 2 hours with them and they just couldn't help me as they don't know this phone.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want a widget to toggle settings like WiFi, GPS, bluetooth etc all in one bar configuration as opposed to separate widgets. I saw one screen shot in this forum of a very clean, minimalistic bar where green = on, red = off (or something like that) for each setting, but I can't remember which post had that screen shot. I've searched and searched. Anyone remember seeing this? Or what search term should I use in the market to find this sort of widget with multiple settings on it?

View 10 Replies View RelatedJust downloaded Handcent and the settings that I want on it are not saving. For example I want vibrate only when phone is in vibrate mode. That is not working at all. I also disabled notifications in the notification bar and I'm still getting them. Don't know if being on a custom rom (omj) would affect any of this. Pretty annoying though and was wanting to know if anyone else is having this sort of problem. I also rebooted the phone and no dice still.

View 2 Replies View Relatedwhen the stock Messaging app wasn't cutting it, I installed Handcent.But it started flaking out on me, so I dumped it and went to the more-reliable chompSMS.I liked it a lot.But to be completely honest, I missed some of the features of Handcent. But reliability is Job 1, so I kept chompSMS for a few weeks.Then I heard that Handcent received a major update a few days ago, so I replaced chompSMS with Handcent. So far so good. I got all the features back, and I haven't had one single issue in days of texting. So if you're like me and you left Handcent for chompSMS, you may want to give the new version a spin.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a simple Android application that loads a page in a WebView, then most of the real work is done by the server-side scripts. Everything is working great, except that I currently have the page URL hard-coded in the Android application, sort of like this:
mWebView.loadUrl("https://www.my-application-url.com");
This was fine until this morning when I was asked to to make it so that the user is prompted to enter the URL the first time the application run, and the URL that is entered by the user is then saved and used automatically by the application from that point onward. I was also asked to make it so that the user can change the URL if they choose to do so. The reason I was asked to do this is so that users can install the server side of the application on their own servers and my Android application will be able to connect without me having to write a custom version for each user, with their URL hard-coded into the application.
I am unsure what is the best way to handle this in Android. It seems that I probably need to add some type of configuration interface to the application that is shown by default on the first run, then only when the Menu button is pressed on the following runs. From this configuration interface I guess I would then get the URL from the user and serialize it for future use. What is the best way to accomplish this?
I've only owned an Android for 6 days (Samsung Galaxy S i9000) and one of the first things I installed was Juice Defender, having used iPod Touch extensively, I know how heavy on battery things like WiFi can be. Anyway, JD makes the phone really really leggy. It can take a minute sometimes (literally, 45-65 seconds) for the JD screen to come up when launched. Similarly when waking from sleep it takes ages for the data connections to become active again. Have I misconfigured JD? Is it really this slow and creates this much lag? Does it just not like the (fairly new) i9000? I've just uninstalled it there right now (left Ultimate Juice on) and the phone is much snappier. It's like using it for the first time. Which, considering JD was installed in the first half hour of my owning the phone, it kind of is. What I really wanted was the WiFi on/off according to cell tower location data so I can have it go on and off when I leave the house. Guess it's no real biggie. Having limited background data (e.g. the 2 mins per 15) is handy too. Are there any other apps which have JD functions - even if more limited in scope - that I can try?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a widget with a configuration activity which calls the following method when its OK button is clicked:
CODE:..............
This is almost verbatim from the documentation. widget_id holds the widget ID that was dug up during the activity's onCreate().
When I place an instance of the widget on the home screen, I've verified that I get the expected sequence of events:
onReceive() gets an ACTION_APPWIDGET_ENABLED if it's the first one.
onUpdate() gets called (in which I detect that the widget isn't configured and draw something as a default action).
The configuration activity appears.
When I press OK, the ok() method above gets called.
The method gets all the way through to the finish() and the configuration activity goes away, but there's no call to onUpdate() or onReceive() after this point. (The widget itself has no updatePeriodMillis.) I end up with a widget on the screen that has the results of my default action but never gets updated.
If I set the widget up without a configuration activity, it gets updated when created and everything works as expected (just without the configured bits).
I am still learning bu find Android the cool platform for allot of useful applications. I have written a Service for doing GPS tracking and it consists of a Service and a Control activity to manage, monitor and configure the service. I am looking for the preferred way for the Control Activity to define settings for the Service, things like IP address and Update interval. I envision something like a Registry on windows where these settings can be shares and updated.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSmart-phones have built in ROM and RAM separately. Also a few phones has virtual memory support too. I would like to know what these memories are basically used for. I understand that RAM is available to user processes. But why do they have a big chunk of ROM? E.g. The wiki page for Droid Incredible says
512 MB DDR RAM
1 GB ROM (748 MB free to user) - what's this free to user?
plus 8 GB moviNAND - typically used for data storage

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe default way configuration changes (i.e., rotates) are handled is to destroy the activity & recreate it with a new one. What is the recommended way to handle these changes in an activity that binds / unbinds to a service (that is possibly heavy/slow to start)? When the activity gets destroyed, it unbinds & causes the service to be destroyed. When the new activity is created, it binds & recreates the service.
The only choices seem to be:
-- override onConfigurationChanged in the activity. Feels ok, but non - conformant.
-- explicitly start the service & only stop it when the last activity gets an onDestroy that's not due to a config change (i.e., there was no call to onRetainNonConfigurationInstance). Feels icky.
-- explicitly start the service & don't stop it until some amount of time after the last unbind. Ickier.
On a related note, what happens between activity switches within a process, where the first activity (A) starts the next activity (B) & then calls finish() -- is there a guarantee that B.onCreate is called before A.onDestroy? If not, and the activities share a service, the same issue of keeping the service alive during this window exists, but with only the icky workarounds.
I have developed an App that talks to a set of web services. Because the App is used in different environments and for different purposes, I would like to provide a way to automatically deploy a configuration alongside the App that contains the settings for the environment (url of the locally hosted web services for example) and App settings (such as a timer period for talking to the web services). It would be tedious to have a UI for this and have to do it on every device post installation. Things I have tried and why they didn't meet my requirements:
*Raw Resource: If I unzip the apk and change the settings file, it becomes invalid as I need to resign the apk.
*Reading straight from the apk with ZipFile/ZipEntry: Device complains upon installation that the config file is not signed.
*PreferencesActivity: Requires device side UI; It would be tedious to have a UI for this and have to do it on every device post installation.
Flipping between landscape and portrait is causing me a problem with dialogs that are active at the time of config change. The dialogs survive (which I think is good), but I have the problem that some of my dialogs contain dynamic content which would need to be refreshed in the dialog views. All that content disappears from the dialog views after the config change.
I thought it would be easier to do a dismissDialog() on restoration in onCreate(), letting the user press the button that shows the dialog. I successfully save and recover the dialog id, but when I attempt to dismissDialog(id) I get an IllegalArgumentException: no dialog with id 1 was ever shown via Activity$showDialog. Ok, so that doesn't work, and I still have that messed up dialog up on the screen that I want to get rid of. How can I do that? Are there any other reasonable alternatives?
