Android :: How To Phone SMS Limit Be Overridden?
Nov 2, 2009
We are developing an election monitoring application that relies on the SMS network to submit reports from independent election observers in the field. The application poses questions to the user, who answers them sequentially, and an SMS is sent each time a question is answered. We currently have around 120 questions (and therefore 120 SMS messages) that need to be sent in a fairly short period of time. However, the limit in the Android source is 100 SMS messages per hour (3600000 milliseconds). How can this limit be overridden, either on a per-application basis or in the Android source?

This question occured to me while programming a Android application, but it seems to be a general programming question more.
The situation is, I am extending (subclass-ing) an class from a library, and overriding a method. how do I know if I should invoke the method of super-class? and when? (in the beginning of the overridden method or in the end?)
For example, I am overriding the method "public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)" from class "Activity" in Android platform. And I saw someone write "return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu)" in the end of the method, in an example. But how do I know it should be done this way? and it is correct or not? what's the difference if I begin my method with "super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu)"?

I know that Android provides some useful methods to be overridden in order to define a menu:
CODE:..............................
I would like to have this menu shared by each Activity and ListActivity of my Android application. This is for having a standard menu in each (List) Activity that lets the user jump to every part of the application within a click.
Right now, the easiest way to achieve this is to copy-and-paste both methods in every (List) Activity of the application. I don't like this redundancy of code written.
Is sub-classing a reasonable choice? I've already seen that sub-classing one of my ListActivity does not work very well (threads that retrieve objects from a database are giving problems). Are there other ways to share a menu though Activities?

Under Settings -> Date and Time, whenever I set a Date to a future or past number, it gets overridden by the Network/WiFi. I've made sure that I've unchecked the Automatic option. Anyone have any ideas why this is?
When I turn off my Network(3G) and WiFi, I'm able to set the Date to whatever I want without it getting reset like 2 seconds later.

Is there a way to expand the VM limit in Android 2.0 on an actual device? Using java.lang.Runtime.maxMem() on a Droid reveals a limit of 24MB, and I've written some code that incrementally allocates memory until failure to verify that figure. You can set the VM size in the emulator, but I haven't yet found a way to do that for a connected phone. Is there some type of a properties file on the device itself that can be modified?

When I play music on my RAZR (JB 4.1.2) via Poweramp, its notification always overrides Power Toggles' one. I mean Poweramp stays on top and then comes PT being the second. The latter has specially designed "notification priority" feature which is set to 5/5, and it works perfectly until I start Poweramp. I have never faced such problem before as I used both applications and they did not interfere with each other.
So is there a way to raise PT's notification priority or drop the Poweramp's one instead? May be some "notification priority manager" or anything...
Tried Notification Toggles app which is similar to PT, but thing was the same, so it's Poweramp issue.

I'm developing a mapping app using Eclipse 3.5.I'm setting the minimum update period with the LocationManager's requestLocationUpdates method, via a configuration activity. When I set the property I see in Logcat that the system process sets the value OK.When I actually send a new location from the DDMS emulator control and the location changes on the map view, I see that the system process then sets the minimum time to zero.Below is a capture of the system's log messages. You can see that I'm setting the period to 32 seconds, then 16, then, after I've sent a simulated location change the system sets it to zero.The map responds to location changes to location changes instantly even if they are sent only a couple of seconds apart.

Family gathering yesterday. I took a 3 minute video on the full settings and tried to upload it to YouTube from the phone and every time I try and upload it, even after reboots, I get a message popping up telling me that the file must be under 1GB. It is only 130MB.

HTC Sensation 4g which I love--but for just 1 gig of internal software, some of which is obliterated by bloatware...I keep clearing the overall cache and uninstalling apps, and every time I look up---space is disappearing again. No matter how much I seem to clear, it gets used by something.
At this point there isn't a whole l_ot left I can clear. I've moved everything I can to the card. The apps left on the phone that I control (the HTC bloat ware can't be uninstalled) are coming down to ones I want to keep.My theory is that it is three things largely eating up space: Facebook, G+ and/or gmail's contacts.
Now, all 3 apps I like and use, but in any event I must have Gmail and contact; it is highly desirable to have FB, and I really can't uninstall FB or G+ anyway with the HTC sense configuration. When I clear the cache of G+ and FB, I usually recover quite a bit of space--and then it's gone again once I use it.
So, is there anyway to limit how much data Fb/COntacts/ G+ download to my phone?

I've recently gotten my Andriod phone (on Telus) and have been texting my friends.My phone cuts up text messages to 160 character messages and sends them all to my friends.However, when my friends receive them the 160 character message gets cut in to one 150 and one 10 character message, often splitting up words. So 4 160 character messages are received by their Blackberries (several models) or Samsung (Slyde?) phones as 4 150 character messages and 4 10 character messages.Is there an app that lets you sent 150 or even 140 character messages? Handcent doesn't help with all the split options it has.I tried them all, but it splits at 160 so it doesn't matter.Is there any way to split messages at a lower character count?(All my friends also use Telus (and Kobo which is Telus). Does Telus have a 150 limit? Or is it their phones?I receive messages from them just fine, but that's probably because their phones only send 140 or 150 character messages.)

Does the 1.5 SDK still have the 16mB application heap limit? Is there any way to change it? Do you think this limit will persist into the forseeable future?

I have an SQL which uses something like "LIMIT 100". If the cursor returns 100 rows, is there an efficient way of distinguishing between whether the LIMIT caused it or not? I suppose I could just call LIMIT 101 instead but I was hoping for a nicer way.

I am using a ScrollView as a child of an AbsoluteLayout to display a list of items inside this AbsoluteLayout. Because the ScrollView is embedded in the AbsoluteLayout's design, I want to restrict it's size to fit the assigned area. Is there any way to set the height of the ScrollView or of the RelativeLayout that is the child of my ScrollView? My layout.xml (with just the important tags):
<AbsoluteLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" /> <...some TextViews...>
<ScrollView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <...some TextViews that I want to be able to scroll, all with wrap_content...> </RelativeLayout> </ScrollView>
<...again, some TextViews in the main layout...> </AbsoluteLayout>
To make it clearer, I have uploaded two images of what I am trying to do: http://drop.io/v8qobow/asset/current-jpg http://drop.io/v8qobow/asset/goal-jpg

I am seeing an issue when using rtsp based URLs on a wap site. If the rstp link has one redirect, then it works and default video player plays the stream. If the rtsp link redirects to another rtsp server and that server redirects to the final destination, then it does not play. Is there a limit in the # of rtsp redirects?

Some of my customers are getting SQLiteFullException
The docs say that this means the SQLite database is full http://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/sqlite/SQLite... An exception that indicates that the SQLite database is full.
The exception text also opens the door for disk being full android.database.sqlite.SQLiteFullException: database or disk is full:
Question: Is there a limit to amount of space that a application or sqlite db can use on the internal disk ?

However, I wanted to find out if you can put a money limit onto the market, as my parents don't like the idea that I could spend all their money, and I am too young to own a credit card yet. I know that it uses Google checkout and searched Google but couldn't find anything worthwhile. finding a way to limit your spending or on info about buying off market, is there any confirmation emails that get sent etc etc.

I need fewer speeding tickets. I've tried voting in local elections but that doesn't seem to help. So I'm left to looking at applications that can help me keep my speed in check.
I really like this application for iPhone, but it doesn't seem to have an Android port. It seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. It has a database of speed limits and notifies you when your phone's GPS reports you have exceeded those limits. The database is user-updated so it should be fairly accurate and current. It also has a really classy GUI.
Is there anything currently in the Android market that can help me? I've tried Trapster, but it doesn't have the functions I'm looking for. It also was pretty annoying as it constantly went off for every potential copper hiding place.

I'm an Android game developer and I need to ask you a couple of questions about Android heap limit.
Does the 16 MB heap limitation also applies to OpenGL ES textures or SoundPool sound effects? Since they are managed by native code, is it correct to affirm that there is no problem in using more than 16 MB of RAM in app/game resources/assets? If it is possible right now, it is guarantee to be possible in the future?

I read this blog about how to use DDMS to track memory allocations. http://android developers.blogspot.com/2009/02/track-memory-allocatio. Using those instructions, I was able to get allocation stack traces. Unfortunately the stack traces only go 8 deep (at least when running against the simulator), and that's too little for me to know where in my code the allocations really originate. How can I raise the limit from 8 to something higher?

That there wasn't a limit to the size of an application that could be downloaded over the air (OTA) but I wonder if a limit, like that imposed by the Apple App Store (20MB) exists now that the Nexus one is running on AT&T's 3G network as of today.
