I'm currently writing an app in Android that works with the GPS, at the moment I'm able to work out whether the GPS is enabled, my problem is that I want to enable the GPS on app startup if it is disabled, how can I do this programmaticaly?

I was wondering if there is a way of enabling the GPS programmatically through an application without going to the menu Settings > Security & location > Enable GPS satellites. Please let me know if there is a way, I've seen this asked a million times in this group but there are never any replies.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to write a simple widget that toggles GPS and network location on and off. I've read that it's not possible to do that normally, but presumably on a rooted phone it must be doable. Does anyone know what the code would be? (I only need the code to toggle the location providers, I know how to make the widget.) It doesn't matter that this isn't a 'good' solution, I don't plan to distribute the widget. If it matters, this would be on an HTC Hero, still running v1.5.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs RTP streaming known to be working on Cupcake devices? I have not been able to start an RTP multimedia session with my G1 since Cupcake upgrade. It was working before the upgrade, e.g. by using the VideoView class and providing an RTSP URL. But the same test which was working before fails now. The RTSP OPTIONS and DESCRIBES exchanges are OK, and then there is a "PVMFFailure" in the Log, and a popup saying "Sorry, this Video can't be played".(Note: I removed a similar message that I sent yesterday because it contained broken links)

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe are developing some applications on cupcake which depend on packages not available in 1.1 version of SDK and will not build on it. Debugging and make are very slow on ubuntu open source. So, we are eagerly waiting for a windows SDK based on cupcake. Is there a timeframe defined for it by Google?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm migrating my app from 1.1 to 1.5. It works right but i get a problem thowing a new intent which used to open a Geo URI in google Maps. I think that it must be related with the fact of Gmaps not beign included as part of the core. Is there any way to solve it or change it if i want to keep the track of 1.1? This is the code: intent mapsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); mapsIntent set Data (Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=" + address + "&z=19"));startActivity(mapsIntent); This is the throwed exception.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a so called reliable resource who works in the T-mobile store, and so far he has been right about anything to do with G1. He predicted the OTA release, and that was right, but he has also said T- mobile will be releasing the cupcake to t-mobile customers in uk end of March. Of course all i/we can do is wait. if anyone has any information to back that claim it would be appreciated. I know there's loads of cupcake talk that has been going on for months. but i believe this is the real thing, else he wouldn't jeapordise these claims to get people to buy the G1 and then get hundreds of complaints if it didnt happen

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just been integrating the Skyhook Wireless technology into my Android application. This is the localization framework that gives a better localization by looking for wifi hotspots. As a result the position is better, at least indoors when it can find a hotspot. On the downside the library is around 300kb of size on the device. Now in Cupcake when I look at "Security & location" settings, there is an option named "Use wireless networks". This seems to be exactly the same as Skyhooks technology. However, I cant find any useful information about what kind of localization this is and weather it makes sense to drop the 300 kb library. Is Skyhook already integrated into Cupcake?

I tried the 'unofficial' cupcake SDK and found that the hardware HOME button doesn't bring me back to the home screen anymore. Is this a conscious UI decision? What's the reason behind it? Also, long-press on the HOME button doesn't bring up the task manager anymore. So, if I am in the browser, I have to all the way close all the pages before I can go back to home screen?
