Android :: SMS Broadcasts And Logs

May 16, 2009

I want to know whenever someone is called, calls, smsed or smses. I figured for the calls I'd use the phone state change to trigger when I should check the CallLog provider again. I couldn't see any direct way of getting broadcasts from the CallLog. Did I miss it?

For SMSes I'm having more trouble. I'd like to know whenever and SMS is sent or received. Being able to receive STATUS_ON_SIM_READ and STATUS_ON_SIM_SENT would be great, but from what I've read in the Sms Manager that would depend on the sending application. I can't seem to find any evidence of a default one that android places when it sends. I also couldn't find an sms log provider or anything similar.

Android :: Targeting Broadcasts To Specific Receiver

Jul 3, 2009

I am trying to get the intent "android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" sent only to the receiver "com.android.mms.transaction.MmsSystemEventReceiver" as this triggers the sms notification to be updated and removed if there is no longer any unread sms's. The issue I have is I need to make sure the broadcast is only sent to the class above. If it goes to other receivers the phone could end up in an unknown state or something strange. The code below does not seem to work.

Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setAction("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED");
intent.setClassName("com.android.mms", ".transaction.MmsSystemEventReceiver");
activity.sendBroadcast(intent);

This code does work but since it goes to all receivers I have noticed some errors starting to show up in logs etc.
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED");
activity.sendBroadcast(intent);

Android :: Cannot Receive Broadcasts For Outgoing Calls

Aug 10, 2009

I have started developing a tool, which should react on an outgoing call or sms and also to be started at boot time. The start at boot time does work properly, but I'm not able to receive the broadcasts for the outgoing calls.

Who can tell me, what is wrong with my code? For this, I added two receivers in my manifest and implemented the broadcast receivers:
manifest.xml: <receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".BootUpReceiver"
android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED">
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> </intent-filter> </receiver>
<receiver android:name=".TelephoneViewer" android:enabled="true" android:exported="true"
android:permission=""> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />
</intent-filter> </receiver>
TelephoneViewer.java: public class TelephoneViewer extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.d(this.getClass().getSimpleName(), "Telephoneviewer.onReceive()");
Toast.makeText(context,"TelephoneViewer.onReceive()", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); }

Android :: Broadcasts Receivers And Permissions In Two Applications?

Sep 15, 2010

I have two applications, one of which (B) implements a broadcast receiver. The application (A) which sends the broadcast, binds a permission to it which the receiver (B) shall possess. The problem is now: If I install the receiver (B) first and the sender (A) afterwards, the receiver will never receive the broadcast. I assume this happens because the installation of the receiver somewhere fails when it comes to the "uses permission" part of the manifest (because this permission is not yet registered/defined).

However, this issue should be resolved as soon as the sender (which defines the permission in the manifest) is installed, but unfortunately isn't. It does not even help to re-install the receiver. The only way to resolve the issue is to completely uninstall the receiver application and do a fresh install. Is this behaviour intended ("not a bug, a feature")?

Android :: Alarm Clock Broadcasts Any Intents?

Feb 11, 2009

Does the Alarm Clock broadcast any intents? I would like to be able to have my application automatically launch after a person's alarm clock goes off, and they press "dismiss" (rather than "sleep"). I assume that would require a receiver looking for a broadcast of some kind.

Android :: Cannot Receive Broadcasts For Package Intents

Oct 20, 2009

I am trying to register a Broadcast Receiver to receive broadcast events for the package events. Following is the code and my receiver in the manifest file. The log statment never happens, but I can clearly see the same broadcast firing for "HomeLoaders" (the Launcher) debug statements.

public class IntentListener extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.i("INTENT LISTNER:", intent.getAction()); } }

<receiver android:name="IntentListener" android:enabled="true" android:exported="true">
<intent-filter> <data android:scheme="package"></data>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED"></action>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED"></action>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_CHANGED"></action>
</intent-filter> </receiver>

Android :: How To Receive Broadcasts Of Ringer Mode Action?

Jul 19, 2010

I have the following broadcast receiver:
public class MyRingModeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Logger.iLog("In my Receiver"); } }

I then have a service that onCreate does the following:
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
filter.addAction("android.media.RINGER_MODE_CHANGED");
registerReceiver(new MyRingModeReceiver() , filter);

When I place a call to the emulator and use the volume keys to modify (silence) the ringer
nothing happens.

Android :: Doing Broadcasts With HTTP Server Push Over WiFi?

Apr 2, 2010

We are designing a system with a PC base station and 100 Android mobiles communicating over WiFi. They will use XLM-RPC as the method of mobile to base station communication. However, sometimes the base station needs to broadcast a message to all mobiles. Should we use "http server push" for this, i.e., have the base station leave the connections open to all the mobiles? Is there a better way? Publish-subscribe is possible, but doesn't seem mature on Android yet.

Android :: Broadcasts As Communication Path Between Views And Activity

Apr 15, 2009

I have custom view and once some action occur in it (say touch/key event) I'd like to call some code in my activity. My question is if broadcasts (intent filters/broadcast receivers) are good communication mechanism for such thing? If not, what is normal/android preferred way to do it?

Android :: Alarm Manager Broadcasts Canceled When Application Killed?

May 15, 2010

I have two BroadcastReceiver registered. When the app is closed they both fire at the appropriate times and do the appropriate things. If the app is closed then killed (say with an AppKiller), the receivers never receive their broadcasts, and nothing happens. Presumably the same thing happens if the parent app is killed due to low memory, so how do I ensure those broadcasts are fired/received. The API states that even if the app is killed it should fire, does anyone else have experience with this situation? If it helps my manifest is:

<!-- receivers for AlarmManager -->
<receiver android:exported="true" android:label="Shift roster updating calendar."
android:name="com.skooter.shiftroster.backend.service.UpdateCalendar" >
</receiver> <receiver android:exported="true" android:label="Shift roster checking alarm."
android:name="com.skooter.shiftroster.backend.service.SetWakeup" >
</receiver>
and nothing esoteric is going on in the AlarmManager/BroadcastReceivers

Android :: Can't Catch OutOfMemoryException?

Aug 19, 2009

I'm writing an app dealing with JPEG pictures. The main Activity let the user slide between a set of pictures, but if these pictures are too large (imagine a set of pictures taken with a 12Mpix camera, not resized), the pre-loading of the second picture throws an OutOfMemoryException that leads to an immediate app VM shutdown whereas I surrounded my calls to BitmapFactory.decodeXXX() whit a try/ catch(Exception). So, the user gets an error message making him think the app is unstable, and the app didn't have any chance of telling him what really happened. How can I handle this a more "user friendly" way? Can I predict the memory size that will be necessary to load a compressed JPEG picture?

Android :: Playing Catch Up

Jan 11, 2010

I was in my jeep the other day when I heard a ad for some song and a itagging...That got me thinking. Now before the fanboy name calling starts, this is not a comparison to iPhone. I have never owned one, nor shall I ever. I think for the android based phone to compete more with the whole iphone market, I think we need to develop our own brand of iTagging, our own brand of iPhone docks, and our own version of iTunes. I understand that the iPhone has been out for a long time and has had the media market to back it up. Heres the thing. There are way more versions of android based phones that there will be of iPhones. I know that there are a lot of variations of the phones, but its nothing adapters cant fix for the docks. as for the itagging, and the itunes apps, its nothing a dev cant handle. I am not a Dev, nor am I a manufacturer, but Im sure some of us can find a friend of a friend who knows this guy that lives down the street to help out our cause...

Android :: Catch 22 For Developers?

Mar 4, 2010

This would be some excellent support for the faithful Android developers. I have eight apps but live in Canada so I haven't been permitted to post them on the Market yet. Still I'm hoping Google might take this into account for Canadian developers who can't yet meet the sales criteria. I applied anyway and hope Google will respond so I can begin mobile testing.

Android :: Stop Application Catch

May 25, 2010

I have five screen in my application. While in performing one action in fifth screen I encountered with Stop Application message. On which, I am getting 3 times "Stop Application" msg box, which covers 3 previous screen and comes back to the first screen. I understand I must have encountered with Error may be IndexOutOfBoundException which I have not addressed it in my code. I was wondering why it asks for extra 3 times "Stop Application" system message. It is fine to display an "Stop Application" system message if I encountered an error in any screen it should stop that particular screen and should come to the next screen on. How can I trap/catch such incidents not to occur in the consecutive screen. If the above description is not clear at any place please let me know that I be more clear to you.

Android :: How To Catch Map Zoom In / Out Event

Jan 14, 2010

Does anybody know how to catch the map zoom in/out event for Android 1.5?Before Android 1.5, I can use ZoomControls which has a setOnZoomInClickListener(). In order to get zoom controls, I can write like this:ZoomControls mZoom = (ZoomControls) mMapView. getZoom Controls(); But, since 1.5, the mMapView.getZoomControls() is deprecated. Instead of this, the documentation suggests using mMapView.setBuiltInZoomControls.Since 1.6, I can use ZoomButtonsController, which has a set OnZoomListener(). In order to get zoom button controls, I can write like this:ZoomButtonsController mZoom = (ZoomButtonsController) mMapView.getZoomButtonsController().setOnZoomListener(this);So, how can I get map zoom in/out event without using mMapView.getZoomControls() for Android 1.5 ?
