Android :: How To Get Maps In Metric Units?
Jul 8, 2009
This may be in the wrong forum, but I can't figure out where else to post it.
The maps app (the one from google your phone comes with by default) only shows routes in feet and miles. Is there no way to get it in meters? I can't find any settings for this!

I'm working on a program which used the functions as title.
There's a problem that the tunctions above do not have their metrics on API website.
To avoid misunderstanding, here is an example about "metric" I metioned before.
Ex. size = pixel, pressure = kilogram(kg)
I have no idea about the metric at all.

I'm starting to design my object graph for an OpenGL ES 1.1 app on Android. What's advisable when it comes to actually drawing my triangles and controlling their size? Should I store all the vertices in units relative to each other and then multiply them by a value I pass during a draw(GL10 gl)? Would this approach have any impact when it comes time to do frustum culling?

I am experimenting with orientation sensor, register it like this: SesnorManager sensor_manager = (SensorManager)getSystemService (Context.SENSOR_SERVICE); Sensor sensor_orientation = sensor_manager.getSensorList (SensorManager.SENSOR_ORIENTATION).get(0); sensor_manager.register Listener(sensor_listener, sensor_orientation, SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_UI); and then read the orientation values in the sensor event listener: private final SensorEventListener sensor_listener = new SensorEventListener() { ... float sensor_data_x = event.values[SensorManager.DATA_X];}

How many storage units Android OS have? Including a possible microSD external Card.
Internal Storage, internal memory?! Whats the difference and location in file system folders?
When an app is installed from market where does it go?
In application manager, in most apps there is an option "Move to SD card"...
If I have an external micro SD Card and choose this apps option "Move to SD card" where the heck is suppose to going the app or some part of it? (Data? Apk? Cache?) It's not in external microSD Card! So what is "Move to SD Card".

I live in an area which is 9 feet above sea level, and when I call getAltitude I get back a value less than -10. Am I doing something wrong, is my device a failure, or is there some nifty scale that I don't know about?

My project has the run-of-the-mill HTTP calls to fetch XML files, parsing the XML files, and creating domain objects. Those objects are later used in the actions and services of the Android app, I'd like to isolate that code. I also want to write tests for it. What are some good ways of doing this? Creating an Android Library doesn't seem appropriate. The tests would have to be in a separate project. And there are no services or activities in the extracted HTTP and XML related code. So the test suite doesn't have to be an Android test suite, it could be regular JUnit tests.

1) I have not been able to find out in which units Location.distance Between receives the latitude and longitude. Is it degrees or micro degrees? Whats the unit for the distance returned? 2) In windows XP using Eclipse 3.3.2. Emulator does not send coordinates properly. Either it by hand or by loading a gpx file the location Listener is not invoked. This same code I have tried it in Ubuntu and works fine. Does someone know how can I solve this? In the office there is no linux installed and I can take my personal laptop.

this is just an issue with how the emulator is setup, but I'm not sure.
I'm (natively) calling this:
int maxt = 0;
glGetIntegerv(GL_MAX_TEXTURE_UNITS, &maxt);
__android_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_VERBOSE, "Native", "Max textures %d", maxt);
This only outputs 2... could it be possible that I'm going to be allowed only 2 textures? That seems impossible... GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE reports 4096 which is more than enough. I suppose you could lay everything out on a couple of 4096x 4096 images (seems a bit crazy) but anyway... Am I just running into one of things that will be different per phone processor?

I've got the hard-coded layout, consisting of buttons, and need to enlarge some of them. I found Button's method setWidth(int value), accepting width in pixels, but I need to set value in dp. So, how can I set dp value in program code?

in xml file we can define measuring units along with the values. If I want to set some property through code it only takes "int" value. What is the default unit for this int? px(pixels) or dp(density independent pixels) ?

I just played with a test unit in Atlanta at the South Cobb Radio Shack store. It was a sprint employee who is making the rounds to different stores and talk to customers. Freakin' sweet. I have to run to a b'day party, but it is beyond amazing. Not too heavy, fits in your pant pockets very well. Meow!

Does anyone know when display units will be available to try out in the Verizon stores? Will they not be there until the 4/29 release date? I'd really like to have the hands-on opportunity before I plunk down a couple of Benjamin's on this phone.

Ive noticed on the phones status page the battery life percent only goes down in tens. Eg 90%, 80%, 70%.. etc Is it possible to narrow it down to single units like 76%? Ive tried some apps on the market but they all see the battery at 70% but i'd like to know if this is the upper or lower half of 70%!

I need to import contacts and groups to 20 brand new phones, to begin with. (Stock, non-rooted Galaxy S4+, 4.2.2.). The phones will stay un-rooted.
-Avoid if possible using Gmail sync.
-Avoid if possible using Kies.
-Preferably use csv and/or vcf with groups (one group for each department).
-Preferably not being forced to connect every phone to a computer by usb cable. Fixable by download from web site on local wireless network.
What I've tried so far:Imported the original CSV:s, sorted them into groups, exported them as CSV to get the correct columns for android phones. So far so good.
Exported above mentioned CSV:s to VCF from a Google Contacts, sent it over to test phone by Pushbullet (for the test only, web site solution imminent), imported it in Contacts. Does not retain groups, shows as "Not assigned". It doesn't seem possible to create local groups? They can only be created with accounts such as gmail. (As I see it, this is my main problem now).
Tried Google Account sync: Problem not solved due to one single Google account, and one Google account on all phones are susceptible to contact deletion by fat fingers and people that are struck by bad luck while thinking. One Google account for each phone would do the trick, but probably not an accepted solution by our IT security "manager", even when using Google Auth.
Tried Kies Sync: Problem not solved due to USB connection, and still no local groups.
Tried Importing CSV file into Windows Contacts (which ****s up the columns, not all are matchable) and exporting as VCF. Problem not solved, no groups.

I can pair my X10 to my TomTom Go720 / TomTom Rider II and my Acer Aspire 5920G no worries, and can estabilish a connection that will last only 1 minute before being discconected and then forcing me to turn the X10 off and on again to establish another connection for 1 minute before the same thing happens, etc.
I have noticed that I can turn the Bluetooth connection off on the phone, but cannot start it again until the phone has been tunred off and on ... is this usual?
I have used the Sony Ericsson update software to confirm that my phone is fully updated and also I have the Google sync running for my email / calendar events.
All other aspects of the phone appear fine ... 3G connection working very well ... flash player issue (but for another day).

I ask because I began using My Tracks a couple of weeks ago...very cool. I logged onto Google Maps from my office and there were the "tracks" I had saved. I never took action to upload them, they were just there I suppose as a function of allowing Google to sync. BUT I created and saved a map on the PC expecting to be able to see it on my phone, but it didn't happen.

Just want to make sure I'm not missing something because I'm having trouble making this work for some reason. If I use a map, do I need to setup the LocationManager and GPS criteria and all?
I just need a map to paint on. I'm building an activity that displays location data collected and stored in SQLite...basically showing the user where they were (it's more complicated than that, but that is the essence). I can do this without needing to start up the whole GPS thing right?

I'm going to be visiting London in April. Presently I'm planning on buying a UK sim card for my MyTouch 3G to use while I'm there.
However, I think my biggest need for data will be for finding my way around London. Does Google Maps work over there (I've somehow gotten the impression that it doesn't), or is there another map app that works with the GPS?

I've got a new HTC Desire and I'm loving finally having GPS functionality on my phone and use a few apps regularly which are very useful. Can you recommend any other ones that make good use out of GPS and mapping functions. The ones I use are..
Google Maps - Needs no introduction. Just amazing. Google My Tracks - Another amazing one. Records your runs, bike rides, car journeys, etc. Plots them on a map and gives you things like average speed, top speed, altitude. This one has made me actually want to go out for a jog or bike ride.

I have several Android devices and each of them has different version of Google Maps: 3.0 in HTC G1, 3.1.1 in HTC Dream and 3.4 in Nexus one and Motorola Droid. When i use the following code: Intent myIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("geo:0,0? q=Starbucks"); I get different behavior on the devices: On the latest versions of Google Maps application I see a map the term centered around my current location with a reasonable zoom radius while in Google Maps 3.0 I see list of results and button to the map. Is there a way to get the same behavior on all devices? of course i prefer the behavior of the latest versions
