In the Android app which is getting developed, i have multiple alarms.
I want to initiate, different actions on different alarms.
How can i differentiate or determine , exactly which alarm has been fired?

I created a widget that when clicked activates a PendingIntent.The problem is when I have more than one widget on the screen only the latest one will start the PendingIntent.I have read some about a unique request code, but not figured this out.Any ideas how I can have multiple widgets and the PendingIntents work for each?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am adding a menu option in my newest application that will allow users to view all of our other applicatiosn we've published to the market place. The problem we are having is we created a second more business like developer account, but want to let users also see all of our old apps. I know how to have the search point to one developer, i.e. pub:<developer name>, but does anyone know of a way to have it search multiple? So that when they click the button all the apps from the older developer we had along with the newer business developer we created?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo far and thanks to this website, I've been able to set up an alarm that will be set up and active, even if I turn of my phone. Now, I set up a alarm to show a reminder for event A and I need the application to setup another alarm to show another reminder for event B. I must be doing something wrong, because it only fires the reminder for event A. It seems that once set up, any other alarm is understood as the same one.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIf I send a text message to multiple recipients it sends as an MMS. I understand that this happens by design on some networks if you're sending a text to more than 10 people at once, but I was only sending the same text to 2 people. I'm with T-Mobile and I have unlimited texts as part of my contract, but MMS messages cost 20p each, so obviously I don't want this to happen. Can this be changed so the messages send as regular texts?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI looked around and couldn't seem to find the information I was seeking in one place but found it on various forums. I thought I would put it here in case others need it or are looking for it. I was trying to add custom mp3 tones to my alarm clock, gmail, sms, etc., but I couldn't get the phone to recognize anything. In the end this is what I did to make it work:
I plugged the phone into my PC using the "usb storage device" option upon connection. I created a folder in the root directory called Tones (probably anything will work as a name) and then created 3 folders inside called Ringtones, Notifications, and Alarms. Anything in those folders will show up only in that app.
In other words, if you want a custom Alarm, you will need an Alarms folder and an mp3 or two. If you have a custom ringtone, you will need to put it in the Ringtones folder and so on. I got a bunch from the Zedge website but I've made a few of my own such as Halo Chant among others.
This might be a dumb question but is there any way (or app) that would allow us to change the white envelope in the notification bar for email? I ask because I have 2 accounts, one Yahoo and another Exchange for work. I never know which email account gets a new email unless I expand the notification or enter the email app.
It would be great to be able to have a little "Y" icon (or something) for a Yahoo email and another icon for the exchange email. That way I can just ignore all the exchange email that comes in after work and only bother looking if it is a Yahoo email. Anything out there?
Any one know of a way to make a calendar event reminder repeat until the user cancels the reminder. Such that if I have a meeting and if I miss the first time that the notification goes off (I'm usually in vibrate only or I use very short very high frequency tones) I'd like the tone to repeat at regular intervals (say every 1 or 2 minutes) until I acknowledge that I'm heading to the meeting. Anyone have an idea for anything like that?
Blackberry didn't do this by default either and there was a WONDERFUL app called BerryBuzz that would allow you to customize notifications to the hilt. In other words different LED colors for each email account or for text messages (or whatever else you could think of) and you could not only have a different sound for them but when the repeating alarm went off you could also individually configure that alarm. Something like this would be really awesome if there was a similar app on Android.
One of the achievements is "No Doctors Here", to kill 15 apples in one round of classic mode. I've definitely done this at least twice (with counting), but OpenFeint doesnt reward me the achievement. Does Fruit Ninja differentiate between green and red apples?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIv'e had nothing but weird problems since day one of my DroidX. I just received a DX hoping it was Hardware issue's (even though I was convinced it was software related). Everyone kept telling me it was because I rooted my droid, but I disagree.
Come to find out it was Advanced Task Killer causing my problems. I had it set to "Auto Kill" and set the level to "Crazy" and set it to "When Screen Turns Off".
It was killing my alarms, Killing Txt, VM, missed call Notifications, and restarting my phone because it was killing an important process....
IDK if anyone has already posted something about this (I didnt see anything) so I figured i'd throw it out there. Im still currently using ATK but the Auto Kill is turned off. Sending New DX back to Verizon.
I need to correctly be able to differentiate between emulator instances. I know it's easily done with real devices. With real devices, you can use getDeviceId or getLine1Number from TelephonyManager. With emulators, all the instances have the same device id, same subscriber id, and same line1 number. Is there a way to differentiate them? Using NetworkInfo, I can call the toString method and I get my ip and the port on the computer. The problem with that is that the port is always different. I would like something more stable. Like when you use "adb devices" in command line. Emulator #1 is almost always "emulator-5556" and emulator#2 is almost always "emulator-5554". Is there a way to get the same info I get from "adb devices" in my code? If not, is it possible to use a command line parameter to force the emulator to use a certain phone number?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to know how many alarms can be set in one application? what is the length for every interval time that I can set?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for one where I can set many different alarms (including multiple alarms per day). I would also like quite a bit of customization (things like tone length, volume, snooze, etc). I don't mind paying, but I want to make sure I have the best before I fork over for it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn case this is useful for someone: When you are programming several AlarmManagers, you have to differ them using a setData parameter:
intent.setData((Uri.parse("custom://"+SystemClock.elapsedRealtime ()))); long firstAlarmMillis = getFirstTimeAlarm(mYear, mMonth, mDay, mHour, mMinute); intent.putExtra("timeInMillis", firstAlarmMillis); PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast (getApplicationContext(), 0, intent, 0); //Log.d("tiven", "despues de la alarma"+firstAlarmMillis); AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)getSystemService (ALARM_SERVICE); am.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, firstAlarmMillis, sender);
You have to set a parameter to differ intents, or else you won't be able to hable them in a broadcast receiver.
I am been stuck , while developing an alarm based application on android. Currently my alarm is firing correctly.But i have kept a toast, to notify the alarm. I want to use ringtone for alarm notification.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI think I may have found an issue within the My understanding is that to properly hold a device awake after an alarm is triggered you have to aquire a WakeLock in the onReceive() event, call a Service, then perform the work in the Service, releasing the lock within the Service when complete. http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/ browse_ thread /threa . http://www.mail-archive.com/android-developers@ googlegroups.com/msg66. This pattern can also be found in the CommonWare Advanced Android Development book. I tried this, but I found that the AlarmManager, when calling the BroadcastReceiver, runs on a separate PID than the IntentService when started from the BroadcastReceiver's onReceive() event. This makes the static variable on the lock manager. I tried this, and my logs indicate that the PID is definately not the same, and my understanding is that the DalikVM instances act like a standard JVM, whereby objects and variables are no shared between JVMs. Furthermore, since the WakeLock is not serializable, there is really no way to pass the reference to the lock via an "extra" in the Intent.Has anyone else seen this pattern work or fail? I have an example project (with compiled APK) if you'd like to test it yourself, where shall I post this? I have tested this on the emulator on versions 1.6 and 2.0.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am setting multiple alarms like this, with different values of id. Multiple calls to AlarmManager.setRepeating deliver the same Intent/PendingIntent extra values, but I supplied different ones.
AlarmManager alarms = (AlarmManager)context.getSystemService(
Context.ALARM_SERVICE); Intent i = new Intent(MyReceiver.ACTION_ALARM);
// "com.example.ALARM" i.putExtra(MyReceiver.EXTRA_ID, id);
// "com.example.ID", 2 PendingIntent p = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
alarms.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, nextMillis, 300000, p); // 5 mins
And receiving them like this:
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION_ALARM)) {
// It's time to sound/show an alarm
final long id = intent.getLongExtra(EXTRA_ID, -1);
The alarm is delivered to my receiver at the right times, but often with EXTRA_ID set to the wrong value: it's a value that I have used at some point, just not the one that I wanted delivered at that particular time.
I want to set two alarms through my application. I have two controls to set them. But when I set one alarm and then another, then the last alarm set works only and previous get cancelled. What is the way to keep their pending intents separate? How can I do this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedCode below creates an Alarm, so far everything is working fine. But i am a bit lost in the Documentaion how to cancel an Alarm. I need to cancel only special Alarm(s) depending on Intent#putExtra(IntentConstants.SELECTED_PRIMARY_KEY,_selectedID);
How can i archive this ?
CODE:.....................
My app schedules an alarm,with the alarm scheduled, what happens if I release a new version of my app, and the user upgrades the app? Will this alarm be removed? Or will it be left untouched, and fired as expected?
