Android : List Of Droids MIME Types?

Feb 12, 2009

I can't seem to find out how a MIME type is found. For instance, say I want my application to bring up Contacts. Where can I find the MIME type for that task? I currently have the following:

Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); intent.setType("*/*");

Intent newIntent = Intent.createChooser(intent, null); startActivityForResult( newIntent , SHOW_VERIFY_ACTIVITY );

And the wildcards work. But I would like to be more explicit. Like the following:

intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.item/contacts");

...but is not valid.

Android :: How To List Data Types Phone App Operates With?

In the scenario that I made up a user chooses an application and and I offer him/her the available pieces of data to operate on. I know that the possible data type for an application is specified in its manifest file and I suppose that this information is available, but I have some difficulty finding out what the data content type for application is?

Android : Type Of List To Store Multiple Data Types

Dec 15, 2009

So my problem is that I've written a function that takes two Doubles, two Int, and a Calendar object on Android (Java). I believe the class provided to allow it to run in a separate thread, AsyncTask, accepts only one type of Object (but allows multiple) as an argument so I figured I might be able to put it in a List or a Linked List or something. Is there such a type that allows multiple data types like that (Double, Double, Int, Int, Calendar), or would I have to create my own object class? I'm a novice programmer so less complicated is probably better, but I'm interested in the best solution as well. What the function does is take a location (double latitude, double longitude), a couple options as integers, and a Calendar Object. It takes the location, options, and date then returns a Time object of the sunrise (or sunset, depending on the options) for that location. and I understand it would probably be best to create a special object class and just pass that, or override the background thread class, but I'm pretty new to object-oriented programming so the less overhead the better (for now). (Update) After a lot of work, it ended up being easier making a data-type class and just using that. The right way turned out to be easier in the end. Who'd a thought.

Android :: Able To Install File Without Adding MIME Type In Web Server

Feb 12, 2009

I kept my .apk file in my "apache" webserver at "Document root" path. This is the only file at Document Root . I had removed index.html file at this location. If I keep the index.html file then other files where not displayed if I open the URL i.e http://<ip_address> using a web browser Now from my Google phone browser I'm able to download the apk file and and install it in Google phone. Note 1: I had not done any settings to add the MIME type "application/ vnd.android.package-archive" in apache web server. Note 2: I was connecting to my webserver through WiFi. But the same apk file I was not able to download from my Gmail (as attachment) and I got "unknown file type" error in this case. After reading few related topics, I came to know about the MIME type support required in webserver for android applications. Now I'm wondering how come file gets installed sucessfully from my apache webserver even without adding the MIME type "application/ vnd.android.package-archive". Any clues what's happening here?

Android :: HTTP Post Does Not Send File MIME Type

Aug 14, 2010

Trying to figure what's wrong with my codings. I followed a blog post from here. I managed to get the codes to actually upload the file to a PHP web service. However, for some reason although I've set explicitly the MIME type for the file, PHP shows that the MIME is just a blank string and therefore rejected.

Android :: Register Application For Files And Documented MIME - Type

Jan 28, 2010

I want to register my application for files of a certain popular and well-documented MIME-type. The problem is that Android does not seem to recognize this MIME-type. The following sample code demonstrates this:

package com.example.helloandroid;
import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log; import android.widget.TextView;

public class HelloAndroid extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); TextView tv = new TextView(this); tv.setText("Hello, Android"); setContentView(tv); String extn = android.webkit.MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl("/data/a.xyz"); String xyzMimeType = android.webkit.MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension (extn); Log.d ("HelloAndroid", "extn: " + extn + " | xyzMimeType: " + xyzMimeType); }

}

The I phone has better games i.e. Iron-man, you can easily download movies to it through I tunes, it has the big hitters in the comic industry DC and Marvel the list just goes on and on. Is it that the Droids technology is just inferior to the I phones?

Android : Remove Pre Installed Apps Or Features On The Droids

Aug 15, 2010

I'm up for a new phone to replace my hated BB Storm. I played with the DX and D2, ( still can't decide) in the store. What struck me was the amount of apps or widgets for things I'll never use cluttering the screens. Can these be removed or is this all linked to the OS? Is this what people are talking about in reference to installing ROMS? I understand that this is not yet possible on the Ds because of eFuse. I also understand it is being worked on.

Feb 7, 2012

I'm trying to set up a basic network connection using droids but I'm having problems.my server program:

Code:
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(8888);
while(!end){
//Server is waiting for client here, if needed[code]....

Motorola Droid X :: 2.2 Froyo Update Buggy For Preloaded Droids Or No?

Oct 16, 2010

I've been viewing this forum for months and I'm surprised that I haven't joined until now lol... I'm currently a tmobile customer and will be getting the X in November. I've read in a few places and from a few people in person that the 2.2 froyo update was a tad buggy in small ways after the update. My question here is... Are any of you who recently bought a droid x PRELOADED with 2.2 have any problems too? Are is it primarily those who came from 2.1? I am honestly hoping to find a droid x with 2.1 so I can hold out on the update until the kinks are fixed but I was just curious if there was a difference for those who updated and those who got there's preloaded.

Motorola Droid :: Droids Keyboard - Giving Double Letters - Replace

Oct 19, 2010

I've had my Droid since June of 2010 and up until a few days ago the keys have started to stick. Pretty much when I press down on them they stick for a split second and spring back up making a click noise each time I click on certain keys (Almost all of them). Not many of the keys are giving me double letters when I type due to this but some are. I called Verizon about it they want to troubleshoot the issue and I have no problem with doing that, I just will do it later at home since I am out now. So what do you guys think..? Should I replace it or keep using it some more see if the sticking stops? I really REALLY hate to replace my Droid seeing as it's new fresh out of the box and I've had no other problems with it.
