Android :: How To Pass Large Amount Of Data During StartActivityForResult

Nov 3, 2009

From one activity, I want to pass a lot of data (about 1MB of Strings).I tried sticking it in Intent.putExtra(ArrayList<String>), but if I put in too much data, I get "FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION".What's the easiest way? I don't want to publish a service, or use the file system. I really want a pipe that can write data from one end and read it from the other end. I can handle the case where the starter Activity dies while the "startee" activity is trying to read from the pipe.

Android :: SQLite Handle Large Amount Of Data?

Jun 26, 2010

I will be making a mobile application in Android. My application is like Google Map's Get Direction feature, but a lot more complex, so I need to store data about points in the map. So I'm worried that SQLite may not be able to handle these large amount of data(or considering the limited storage of the phone). I have no background in SQLite so please bear with me.

Android :: Approach To Cache Large Amount Of Textual And Audio Data / In Android Application

Jul 13, 2010

We are supposed to cache textual and audio data in our application until device is booted or maximum of two days, whichever happens earlier. To get a perspective on data to be cached, note that we are to store about 200 text headers containing around 10 fields, each of length 30 bytes and about 20 sound files each about a minute long.We are getting the textual data by parsing XMLs and then we keep them in ArrayLists. The sound files are directly written inside the app storage using File I/O (and not on SDcard or Apps Cache directory).This application is to be run on devices running Android 1.5 or later.I understand, and please correct me if I am wrong, that we can cache the files either on SDcard or inside the application or inside applications Cache directory.

Android :: Draw Path On MapView From Large Amount Of Longitude/latitude Points

Aug 2, 2010

I am writing a application that needs to draw a "route" comprised of lots of GPS points (long+lat). The points are close together and don't follow roads, simply drawing a line between each point is ideal.

The current implementation I have is very slow as I am looping over all the GPS coordinates and creating a new Point and overlayitem in an itemized overlay. This takes around 20 seconds for it to load all of these points and draw them to the mapview. Is there a way in which I can construct a series of lines or point from the GPS coordinates and draw them onto the mapview?

Example of current implementation:

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

Android :: Child TextView In ScrollView With Large Amount Of Text Pushes Other Views Off The Screen

May 6, 2009

I am trying to create an activity layout that has a top level vertical linear layout like so:

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

This works ok as long as the wordDefinition text isn't very long. But, when I set the text to something very long, it pushes the back button off the bottom of the screen. Why? Isn't the ScrollView supposed to scroll the text in the child TextView?

I've tried playing with weights (e.g., giving the top text view a weight of .2, the scroll view a weight of .7 and the button a weight of .1, but to no avail.

Android :: Sending / Receiving Data Using StartActivityForResult

Apr 21, 2009

Ok, I have 2 Activities I want to send data between activity A and B.My problem is that some random code of mine seems to be called between startActivityForResult() and onActivityResult()in Activity A.This doesn't make any sense because there is no code after startActivityForResult() is called.Shouldn't onActivityResult() be the first thing A does after B finishes?

Android : Creating App Database With Big Amount Of Data

Dec 23, 2009

The database of my application need to be filled with a lot of data, so during onCreate(), it's not only some create table sql instructions, there is a lot of inserts. The solution I chose is to store all this instructions in a sql file located in res/raw and which
is loaded with Resources.openRawResource(id).

It works well but I face to encoding issue, I have some accentuated caharacters in the sql file which appears bad in my application. This
my code to do this : Code...

The solution I found to avoid this is to load the sql instructions from a huge static final string instead of a file, and all accentuated characters appears well.

But Isn't there a more elegant way to load sql instructions than a big static final String attribute with all sql instructions?

HTC Desire :: Amount Of Data Useage

May 12, 2010

I have decided to go to a smartphone on 13th June when my present contract expires. My Query is, I am in the U.K. and if I look at contracts for the iphone they normally include unlimited Wifi and 1Gb of wireless data, whereas the Desire seems to come with only 500Mb of wireless.

I would much prefer to get a Desire, but I am concerned that I could be lumbering myself with excess charges if I go over the 500Mb limit.

I have never had a phone with an Internet connection before so I'm sure that there will be a lot of playing going on at least to start with.

Motorola Droid X :: Uses Same Amount Of Battery / Data Regardless Of Whether

Aug 2, 2010

I was wondering if the weather app that Moto has built in still uses the same amount of battery/data regardless of whether or not it is on the home screen. I took the widget off the home screen and stopped the weather process and it just comes back anyway. So the weather process is still running in the background. I'd like to use the weather widget, but don't want to deal with battery drain. Bad enough my phone has reset itself twice in the last 24 hours.

HTC Desire HD :: What Application Using Huge Amount Of Data? (Internet Usage)

Nov 25, 2010

So I've had my DHD for 3 days, done a little 3G browsing the usual stuff Facebook, emails etc., but nothing more as I used my home WiFi for the widget and app downloads. But today I got a text from Vodafone saying I was near my internet usage limit for the Month! Within 3 days!? I have a 750MB limit, which the chap in the shop assured me was enough to keep me happy as 'no one ever goes over that.'

I was happy with that even though my previous contract was unlimited internet as he said it would be ok. All I can think of is the email syncing, so turned that off. But what else could be causing me to go over the 750MB limit within 3 days? Surely thats a huge amount to be used?

Samsung Captivate :: Does Switching To 2G Lessen Amount Of Data Usage?

Sep 13, 2010

Maybe a rookie question, but here goes.I've seen a lot of posts about where to find an app/widget that allows you to switch between 3G and 2G. My question is: why would I want to do this? Does switching to 2G lessen the amount of data usage (which could be important, considering I'm on AT&T's 200 MB plan)? Or is there some other benefit/reason for doing this?Related: I have the SwitchPro widget, which has a 3G-2G switch available -- does this mean I am able to switch if I want to?

Android :: Large Data File / How To Deal With It?

Dec 10, 2009

My application needs to intensively manipulate (read-write) on some structured text data.The size of the data is significant 1Mb. And there is initial data available for the user to start with.My idea is to put this data as a file in the .apk. Then, on initial application launch to read this data and populate Android SQLite database with it. Then just work with this database. But after the database is populated the data file is no longer needed. And I'd like to remove it to free some memory. Alternate approach is to work with this data file instead of SQLite database. But I assume SQLite would work a magnitude faster then i/o on my data file..

If I include a datafile with the 800Kb data and import it into an SQLite database under the initial run of the applcation, I cannot delete the data file afterwards and my application will take up 800 Kb unnecessarily. Is there a better way to include/import my data....? (I want my application to not depend on being online after download - so the data should be downloaded with the application.

Android :: Pass Data Between Activities?

Oct 6, 2010

I'm developing an app which basically navigates through a xml-feed. When I parse the feed or let's say the list, then each (list)item becomes a model. All the models are wrapped up in an array list. Now, when the user clicks on a list item, the underlying model is going to be serialized and sent as IntentExtra to the next Activity (e.g. a deeper sub list). (Originally I asked here a different question. The solution was not related to Serializable and wouldn't help anybody. However MatteKarla gave an interesting input. Thats why I decided to rewrite this question.)

Android :: Pass Data Through New Activity?

Jun 29, 2010

In my Android app,I start a new activity with startActivityForResult(). I get the result in onActivityResult() perfectly. My problem is that there is a small bit of data that I know before I start the activity and I need that value to be available in onActivityResult(), too. I tried attaching it to my intent as an extra, but it wasn't attached to the intent that is available when the activity returns the result. I made it work by storing the data in a global variable, but I really don't like that approach. Is there a better, right way to pass data through an activity (instead of just to it)?

Android :: Inserting Large Volumes Of Data Into SQLite

Sep 2, 2009

I need to insert approximately one million rows of data (spread over 4 tables) - each row has one or two numeric fields, and two or three text fields (normally quite short). Single-column indexes on all the fields. After doing some tests on the emulator with a small test set, I extrapolated (assuming the last row will be inserted with a similar speed to the first row) my results to figure out that this would take about 15 hours (I have a Core 2 Duo running Vista). However, then I tried running the small test set on my Hero and I was surprised to see it run more than four times faster. I would guess it would take about 3 hours on the Hero. Alternatively, I could make the pre-populated database available as a download on the first run but this is likely to be a 120MB download. I have a few questions I'm hoping someone can help me with: 1. SQLite performance on the actual device being 4-5 times faster compared to the emulator - is this normal/expected? 2. Do the figures above generally sound fast/slow/normal (sorry this is so vague)? 3. From a user perspective - would it be best to provide a 120MB download or a 3 hour "first-time initialisation" step (plus 6MB download)?

Android :: Application Requiring Large Data Files

Jun 10, 2009

I am working on an android app that needs to act on a few data files totaling around 30MB. I put together a test and the emulator failed with OutOfDiskSpace. Debugging on a device failed with even a smaller data size. After reading through the google groups, it appears that the application size limit isn't stated anywhere and nobody from google has been forthcoming with specifics about this. Given that there are iPhone apps that are over 100MB in size, putting such a small limit on Android apps seems weird, except just for the fact that you have a relatively small amount of total available app storage space (< 100MB).What techniques do you use to deal with this limit? If you have an app that needs more than 10MB, do you put it on a web server and deal with downloading it the first time? If so, how do you handle access control so that only your app can get the data?

Android :: How To Pass Data To Another Droid Device/

May 24, 2010

I am working on an application and one feature that would make it really useful is the ability to share some information, but the other device may not be expecting the data to be sent.For example, if I am reading a really good book, and I realize that a friend may like it, I could use an application to send the data to him, so he could order the book from Amazon.But, since he isn't expecting the data, I would hate for the application to be polling a server every so often, as that will be needlessly draining the battery.Ideally it would be great if there was a way to make a phone call to the target device, send a data packet and end the call.If it could be done and prevent the phone from ringing, then it would be very useful to me.I am curious if there is some way to send data between devices without polling.

Android :: Best Approach To Show Big Amount Of "grid" Data In Droid?

Mar 15, 2010

I am building an application for Android (1.5) that, after quering a webservice, shows to the user a big amount of data that should be displayed in a "grid" or "table" style.

I must show a result of about 7 columns and 50 rows (for example a customer list with names, addresses, telephone number, sales amount last year and so).

Obviously, the 7 columns will not fix in the screen and I would like the user would be able to scroll up/down and LEFT/RIGHT (important because of the number of columns) to explore the grid results.

cell selection level is NOT necessary, as much I would need row selection level.

What is the best approach to get this interface element? Listview / GridView / TableLayout?
