What is the easiest to time execution in Android?
I have looked around a bit and I found TimingLogger on the Android SDK, and instructions here. It looks very convenient. But I can't get it work. This is my code:
CODE:................
It's is supposed to dump the times in in LogCat. But I can't see nothing.. I What am I doing wrong? Eclipse doesn't show any varnings. I guess it has something with verbose ouput, but I have set LogCat to show Verbose.
I am using Eclipse for Android development and Latest version of Android SDK (Running XP, 2Gb Ram)
1. when run clicked, previously executed emulator appears first then emulator default screen appears, only last current actual output appears
2. when clicked to close takes too much time (2 mns) for the emulator to disapper
3. in short execution time exceeds development/coding time in the testing process
is anyway to reduce such execution time
How to disable the menu item in android in execution time. Example: Button Next and Back. When is in the last record, the Next menu is disable.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to display the status of the activity execution on the screen using the TextView while activity is executing. I am appending the String messages at different stages of execution in the TextView, which is defined in the Layout main.xml (e.g. TextView.append("Server started..").
For e.g. I am running socket communication application in which my android application is the server and it is receiving the messages from the local desktop. So in this application I want to show "Server started.." message when socket server on android started , then a messge "waiting for message.." and then "message receivied.." when message received by android server.All 3 steps are the part of a single activity.
But in my case, I am getting all 3 messages at a time after activity execution completed. Is there any API available, using which I can show the status during the execution also.
I have a ImageView acting as a top banner on top of a webview. The image of this banner is created in execution time dependending on the resolution of the device. The height of the banner is always the same for each resolution. The only thing that changes is the width, which changes according to the orientation. But, since the width changes and the height doesn't, I end up having sort of 2 images with different proportion. And this is way the scale down/up won't work out for me.
Another problem is that everytime the user rotates the screen, the banner image is created again but Android seems not to update the image and thus I have a banner missing part of it.
I thought about having a real big image that will fit for both landscape and portrait orientation. But this seems not to be a good idea since Android keeps resizing the image everytime so it will fit on the space of the ImageView.
I'm running out of ideas here. Can someone suggest something?
When we are reading a xml file in android. At the execution time it is taking so much time for executing. Is there any way to reduce the time taking for execution?

I've had my phone for exactly 1 week, and after reading all the horror stories of people experiencing the random shut offs, I thought I was lucky up until now. I love this phone a lot despite the obvious GPS issues. Does anyone have any idea on what may be causing this? Hardware or Software issue?I would hate to exchange it for another with AT&T since I've become so attached to it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application has a MapView which shows a collection of items in a satellite view. I use the MapController's zoomToSpan() method to initialize the zoom level of MapView. I later discovered that the MapView was showing a blank white screen with grey X's (zoom'd too far, zoom out once and everything looks as expected) for the use case when the collection of item's locations were very close to each other.
So, I modified the code from this:

I'm currently working on an app for the android os that requires to fetch data from a remote server from time to time. as this "update" should be carried out even when the actual frontend app is not running, i implemented a remote service that is started on system boot. now i need to schedule a timer to start the update. is the "Timer"-class the right one for this job? and if "yes": what is the difference between a "normal" Timer() and one started as a "daemon" by Timer(true)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI saw on Internet some services that give you the possibility to test an Android app on the web: for example, Manymo launches an emulator on a remote server and give you the possibility to interact with it. AppSurfer let you test your Android app in an emulator-like environment. Pieceable Viewer is similar to AppSurfer but for iOS.
According to you, how these services are implemented?
Maybe there are some emulators running on a remote server on which run a vnc server, but looking at AppSurfer or PieceableViewer they looks too responsive for this implementation.
i read kubuntu 11.10 finally has integrated phone capabilities and is going to be heavily geared towards mobile devices URL....and development of Android execution environment for the android os that allows you tu run .apk in linux if so i think this would be full of win for kubuntu with it being the first linux distro with integrated phone capabilities and if the AEE was available that would just be the coolest phone ever
View 2 Replies View RelatedOccasionally I see thread execution hiccups on my Motorola Droid (currently running 2.1 but I saw it with 2.0.1, too). Normally my dummy thread (full tilt, foreground, not doing *anything* else) runs in about 5-6mS. However, I see a second hump around 13-14mS and stragglers anywhere out to 80mS (typically around 35mS, though). What is going on? Why is this scheduling so non-deterministically? What is the solution? I could deal with a couple mS slower if it would get rid of those stragglers that exist the whole way out to 50-80mS..................
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an android app that repeatedly collects fingerprints from the wifi-networks that are around (for scientific reasons, not to invade anybodies privacy). Anyways, imagine I have a function that does this work and it's called scanWifi(). I initally wanted to start it like this:
ExecutorService mExecutor = Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor();
mExecutor.scheduleAtFixedRate(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
scanWifi();
}
}, 0, interval, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
Sadly, this only works reliably when the phone is plugged in. If it's plugged out and lays there for a while, it doesn't run my scanWifi() function every minute. Sometimes there are gaps of several minutes between single calls to scanWifi(). I also tried doing the same thing using a Timer/TimerTask with similarly poor results. The only thing that seems to work more or less reliable until now is to post it to a handler and call it repeatedly, like this:
Handler h = new Handler();
Runnable r = new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
if (!mIsStopped) {
scanWifi();
h.postDelayed(this, mInterval);
}
}
};
h.post(r);
Why is that the case? Is the CPU sleeping and thus misses the scheduled execution? I hold a partial wakelock in my app.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am about to develop a web application for smart phones. This app uses some JavaScript code. While testing it on Android devices (Hero, Desire) I noticed that all JavaScript timers immediately stop when the page is moved or zoomed. They never continue. Let's say you have a site which displays web camera images with 5 fps. As soon as you move this page (I mean scroll with finger) the web camera image will never be loaded again. So you can't center or zoom the image at all without stopping the stream. This behaviour is 100% reproducible on all Android devices I tested (1.5, 2.1). It does not appear on an iPhone which continues execution after moving stopped fine.

I just downloaded the Kies software and when i go to sync my contacts with outlook i get this error: Execution privileges prevent you from accessing outlook. Please try again with administrator privileges.
I have no contacts on my phone right now. I deleted them all because i had up to 5 of the same contacts due to At&t sync, face book,and gmail all syncing at the same time. The software looks very good very similar to the BB software i'm just not sure if its outlook, my pc privileges, or something else blocking it. I am admin on my laptop.
Can anybody tell me if it is possible to execute programs using ARM assembly language in the simulators?

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy calls to getFromLocationName() always fail the "first" time I start my app. I catch the IOException which has reason:
Unable to parse response from server
Then I make a second call and it succeeds. Once things are "awake" all future calls to getFromLocationName() succeed, it's just that first one, and there is a ton of latency.
I haven't run this on a device yet, just in the emulator. This seems like a network problem, but it is so reproducible I'm thinking I'm not initializing something properly. I'm using Android SDK 1.1.
