View 4 RepliesI'm writing an android application that collects cell signal strengths.I am having trouble getting the "current" cell signal strength, but I don't have any problem getting the "neighboring" cell signal strengths.To get the current cell signal strength, I created a PhoneStateListener and implemented the onSignalStrengthChanged callback.It works, but not very well.It seems like the signal strength hardly ever changes, and resolution jumps to only a few numbers.I would accept the answer that the resolution of the signal strength hardware is coarse, but when I use the TelephonyManager's getNeighboringCellInfo() method, it works much better.The signal strength readings from neighboring cells change frequently, and they have much better resolution.So, how can I get the current cell signal strength in the same way that I am getting the neighboring cell strengths?It seems odd to me that the functionality of the neighboring cells is better than the current cell.

It would be used for riding atvs on wooded trails. While riding in groups it become difficult to keep together as the trails split. We almost always have cellphone signal while we ride and would just like to upload our current gps location. Note: It would also be great if we could mark the trail on the map and share it with the group.

If anyone knows how, please let me know.

Battery used by cell radio?
Does this just mean I am in a bad cell zone? This is my reading at home and it is the top battery usage on the chart, followed by wifi at 24% (on because I am home), and phone idle at 23%.

I'm looking for something which can relay the approximate phone location (based on gps/wifi) and lock the phone. Also, being operate with a different sim card would be a plus.
I've just started creating some Android application and I successfully made application that locates user's latitude and longitude.
Well. The problem is that I am interested about the way how android does that with maps tools since my application starts a GPS and it takes like 10 minutes, before it finds a location indoors and maybe sometimes it doesn't even find a GPS indoors, but if I use Maps application that comes with phone it works fine indoors and outdoors it's same where I am.. the location I'm standing on is directly found without waiting any minutes. (I've changed a place and it's directly there without waiting)
Can it be done as easily as GPS locating?

I had uninstalled this app as it was completely messed up when I got my first android last week and went to go find it in the market place and it is no longer there...I tried using the barcode for the location in the marketplace to no avail and even tried clicking the link on the bottom of the webpage while using the browser that said "download facebook for your moment" which brings me to an error message that states "the requested item could not be found"
I found a couple posts on the facebook for android page with the same problem but there were no responses.
I want to be able to mess with my friends, is there any application out there for andriod that tracks cell phones by there numbers? Similar to the one for iphone? where you do not need to install anything on their phones and just punch in a number and track them. if so please post site or name of the app.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there an app that allows you to receive a fax sent to your cell#? Or even send by taking a photo and sending?
I know faxes are ancient now, but the business world can't seem to get past them. I generally scan and email, but some of our vendors still fax.
So my app works well in the emulator in various run configurations and on the device when the device is connected to WiFi. But when I switch off the WiFi on the device, the code that goes out to the network takes forever and then times out (i.e. doesn't return any data). Other people have reported this as well. I also notice that no data is going out or coming in when I look at the little up and down arrows on the 3G icon in the status bar on the G1. I am assuming that the Java code I am using should work for both types of connections, right? I mean, do I need to account for the fact that cell data network is very slow with high latencies i.e. pre-cache my data etc?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI believe Google is about to fumble the ball, so to speak. I sense a growing frustration with users with how various service providers are handling the updates to Android on their devices, such as Rogers in Canada. There doesn't seem to be any uniform system of rolling out Android updates to all the various devices people are using. I can understand if an older device is not functionally able to handle a new version because of hardware limitations but when a company doesn't offer an update to a phone that is capable of handling it, that will cause major problems for Google/Android. I haven't had my HTC Magic all that long but an unable to upgrade to Android 2.0 without rooting the phone which I'm not inclined to try. It's a TIM's version and so far I can find no information about the latest version of Android in the works for it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way I can get access to the following information from the cell. I know that it uses a Qualcomm MSM7201A chip. I know qualcomm unleashes a boat load of information such as: Pilots-Channels PN offset Neighbours Searches PN Codes Power Control-TX and RX Slot DRC Signal Noise Ratio Carrier to Noise Ratio Energy to Noise Ratio
So the question is can I get access to all this information and are there APIs from Android that I can use.
So far the closets I have come is in telephony/PhoneStateListener telephony/NeighboringCellInfo telephony/CellLocation telephony/TelephonyManager
Is there any API that will give me those 6 neighborhood cell ids on Android, or shall I try to send AT commands to the Android modem.
