Android :: Handling Events From One Service For Multiple Activities

Jun 10, 2010

I have a class A which extends TabActivity and creates Activities B, C and D as tabs in its onCreate() function. Also, class A initializes another service handler class S which is responsible for establishing a connection to a service and implementing callback handlers for the service. Any of the Activities B, C and D should be able to receive events from the service and update accordingly. If I receive any event in class S from the the service then I want to call a function in Activity B which would be responsible to update the UI elements in Activity B based on the event received. You can assume that the user is in Activity B when the event arrives.

Can I call an activity function like the following in the stub handler for the callback in my class S -

CODE:................

Android :: Droid Background Service Stops Processing Broadcas Events / Solve It?

Nov 6, 2010

I've a problem with my android application.
I'm using a background service (with notification on the status bar) which performs an audio sample every hour. To perform this sample I generate a broadcast event every hour and when I capture the event the audio recording starts. During the day, when I'm using the phone, I've no problems. The strange behavior happens during night, when it seems like if the phone goes to an "idle" state: the broadcast events are no more processed. From the log file I understood that the events are generated and putted in a queue... and when I start using again the phone, all those events are raised in the same moment.
Do u have any idea about how to solve this problem? How can I force the phone to continue processing my events? do I have to set any variable of flag to avoid the phone going in this kind of "idle" state?

Android :: Showing Toasts In A Service From Worker Threads With Service Reference

Jun 24, 2009

I have a service running in the background.I have a background thread that gets a reference to the service from the application's main activity. But when the background thread calls a method in the service to display a toast, I get the "Looper not initialized exception".Why,if I have a valid, bound reference to a Service, does this still happen?

Android :: Service Auto Restarts On Breakpoint When Debugging A Service

Jul 22, 2010

I am trying to run the sample soft keyboard included in the SDK. I am using the debugger, and the literature says that to use a breakpoint while debugging a SERVICE, I need to include:

android.os.Debug.waitForDebugger();

So here is the portion of the code I modified:

CODE:...........

I have put a couple of breakpoints, at the statements indicated by the comments.

This is what happens: the debugger first stops at the breakpoint1, for a few seconds. But then the service restarts. For the life of me I can't figure out what makes the service to restart.

Android :: How To Get Interface On Service Without Destroying Service At Unbind?

Mar 1, 2009

My service works exactly the way i want as long as i use start and stop and communicate using intents. However my activity needs to change the state of my service as well as retrieving state information.So i thought it would be nice to broadcast some kind of state_changed event from my service and use a binder interface to pull information from the service or change the services state based on user input.This works fine too. The only problem is that my service gets killed when i unbind it just as the documentation says.Is there any way to keep the service alive but still get an interface to control it directly. My activity offers the user a way to stop the service and the service kills itself anyway after it's work is done but i don't want the service to stop every time the activity is destroyed.

Android :: Two Threads And 1 Service / Or Service Per Thread?

Nov 20, 2010

what I'm trying to do here is implement something like a peer-to-peer client. Being that, it will start a client thread and a server thread.I know Services themselves run in the main GUI thread, so I'll have to start a couple of independent threads (or Asynctasks?) for each server and client. The only thing I'm not so sure about is if I'll better have 1 Service starting 2 threads, or maybe 2 services, each one of them starting their own thread.

Android :: Tips On Making An Android Service / Which Polls Web Service Handle Bad Connectivity

Jul 16, 2010

I am developing an Android app which needs to poll a specific webpage in time intervals. I've got it to the point where it does indeed poll the page on a specific interval, and that interval is specified in a SharedPreference which can be changed by the user in the settings page of the app. But complications arise when network connectivity is flaky.For example, how do I ensure that the Service "wakes up" the network adapter and gives it ample time to connect before polling the page, in the case that the phone was sleeping to save power? This polling action can happen as little as once every 24 hours, so I don't want to miss one action just because the network was out (but turned on a few seconds, minutes, or even hours later).

Or there are times when the web service doesn't respond, or DNS doesn't respond, or what have you, and for any reason it doesn't get a response even though the phone is technically connected. What sort of rule do I put in place to make this retry later, so that I'm not retrying repeatedly when the user specifically turned off their internet but I'm retrying soon enough that if it was just a hiccup, the data can be received soon after the first try?Are there any examples for this type of situation? What is the logic to best handle this?

Android :: Android Remote Service Doesn't Call Service Methods

May 28, 2010

I'm developing a GPS tracking software on android. I need IPC to control the service from different activities. So I decide to develop a remote service with AIDL.This wasn't a big problem but now it's always running into the methods of the interface and not into those of my service class. Maybe someone could help me?If i now try to call a method from an activity for example start(trackId) nothing happens. The binding is OK. When debugging it always runs into the startTracking() in the generated ITrackingServiceRemote.java file and not into my TrackingService class. Where is the problem? I can't find anything wrong.

Android :: How Do I Duplicate Events?

Nov 13, 2009

Not the corp calendar, the regular one. I have a band I go listen to, and I want to enter their schedule in my calendar. Generally the same times and locations, so it would be cool if I could just copy an event to a new date and use all the stuff I already entered. Or make changes to any detail if I need to. This would also be useful for irregular meetings of any type. It is NOT a recurring event.

Android :: Add Calendar Events

Sep 15, 2010

I'm just getting up to speed in Android, and today in a project meeting someone said that Android has no native calendar app so users just use whatever calendar app they like.

Is this true, and if so how do I programmatically add an event to the user's calendar? Is there a common API they all share?

Android :: Update Calendar Events

Aug 16, 2010

I'm currently writing a class to access the android calendar, retrieving and inserting new events does already work but I'm having trouble to update existing events. With the the methods I already have I could check the ID of the calendar I want to work with, which is 5. I also could find out the ID of an event in that calendar which is 87. I'm trying to update that event with this code (well actually it is a bit different but I've shorten it a bit so it's not so much code to read for you)

Android :: Calendar Events Gone But Is Still Shared?

Oct 10, 2010

My wife and I both have Android phones (EVO and Samsung Transform) and have the Google Calendars shared. All of the sudden, her calendar is completely empty and can't see mine anymore.But on mine, I still see all of her events and see it listed as one of my Calendars both in Google Calendars and on my phone.Everything looks perfect on my end but everything is back to square one on hers.Any ideas how to restore her calendar or what may have caused it.I am afraid that just starting hers over is going to start duplicating events in mine.

Android :: Keep Facebook Events Out Of Calendar?

Nov 27, 2010

I had my Android phone set up at the store to synchronize with Facebook.The trouble is, any even anyone in my Facebook list enters shows up on my phone calendar. My phone is cluttered with other people's events in which I have no interest, to the extent that my ability to see what is on my calendar is impaired. This is true both with the native app and CalendarPad which I downloaded specifically to get around this, and also for events I have declined.Anyone know of a way to keep Facebook events off my Android calendars?

Android :: Seeing Combined Events From More Than One Calendar?

Jan 28, 2010

Does anyone know how to view events from more than one gmail calendar?Unfortunately, the Android Google apps (both gmail and calendar) DO NOT allow more than one account. What is up with that?? iPhone, Palm, and Blackberry all do this natively.Anyhow, I thought I was being clever by sharing my calendar between my personal gmail and my corporate gmail accounts. As a result, I can now see my work events on my personal calendar while in the browser. BUT.... from my Android, the shared events DO NOT appear! Why? Why? I downloaded a few other calendar apps from the Market but they all rely on the built in calendar... so none of them do any better.Is there a solution to this problem or is this another inherent Google fault?
