i have a little frontend showing a list of items that it will retrieve from a service. I want that service to be started in a separate thread.so the UI is still responding to user interaction while waiting for that service to call a callback method. What is the best way to start the service in a detached thread?

I got stuck on the Tab Layout walkthrough and the only way I could resolve it was to put each Activity Class in a separate .java file.
I was wondering if all Activities need to be in separate .java files, or am I missing something.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an app that has two buttons one for email & one for SMS. Depending on the button pressed I want to email or else SMS a certain text. I have coded the email button and it is working fine. The problem is that the dialog box that pops-up gives an option of e-mail or Messaging the text. I want to separate out the two, so that when the user presses email, only the options of email is there, and when the user presses SMS, only the option of Messaging is there.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have read all about having separate processes for different Application components, and how to use them.I am curious, what are some appropriate use cases for when an application should actually use separate processes?It seems to me, the main advantage to using separate processes is to make the different portions of your app more easily killable by the OS.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to know how to run a listener on an isolated thread. Because I would like to use a LocationListener and make some calculations in the main thread. So the LocationListener would be "slow down", because of those calculations. Is it possible to have it run in a different thread? Or is it by default in a separate thread?
View 2 Replies View RelatedBeing interested in Android development and still in the experimentation phase - there's something I haven't been able to grasp. As far as I've been able to understand, the process lifecycle and application lifecycles are separate and as such, it would be possible for the application to still to exist, even if it's process has been killed. So I guess my question would be, in what scenario could this occur and how is the application accessible if the containing process has been killed?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI would like to define each tab's content in a different XML file so the visual editor in Eclipse can be used. That is, without all of the tabs being laid over each other. The visual editor doesn't even seem to work with the XML example provided here: [link text][1]
[1]: http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html "Here", It just has a Null pointer exception.
I have tried to define each tap in it's own file, for example. code...
And when adding the tab I use:
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab_in").setIndicator("Input").setContent(R.layout.input));
But this causes the application to crash on launch. Is there any way to do this?
I want to set a menu option icon for a drawable that is in another jar inside an xml file. code...
Instead of drawable/my_location have something like com.somelib.R.drawable.someDrawable.
I can set this in onCreateOptionsMenu but was just wondering if it could be done via the xml file.
I want to have TWO calendar apps on my devices (Samsung S4 and Samsung Galaxy Tablet) such that one syncs all my personal (Google) calendars and the other syncs my work (Outlook) calendar. It is not visually useful to sync in one calendar (use 7 personal calendars - 6 family members plus group family calendar). Is it possible to setup calendar views independently across two or more calendar apps?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs Android backwards compatible, in other words can an application developed in Android 1.6 run in Android 2.0? I just published a 2.0 application and discovered that I can't find it in the market using my G1 (Android 1.6) phone. But apparently others are downloading it. Should I downgrade the application to 1.6 or do I need to create separate applications for each Android version?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI need two activities run in different processes in the same application. Now I have made it work by specifying the different process name in "android:process". But I met a problem, from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-elemen..., we have only one superclass of Application will run before the activity starts(I have tested it, and each time a after new processes start, this Application(its superclass) will run before activity). But, my two activities have two different superclasses of Applications.
So, how to make Applications for different activities run for its corresponding activity? If there is no way to use different Application class for different activity, how can I make a flag for the common Application superclass to judge which process(by getting its name) is running? BTW, the two activities were on the separated development flow and I am trying to merge them.
I have an application that is performing HTTP Requests (specifically calling the FogBugz API) when the user clicks certain buttons. Right now, I am just creating a service when the application starts, and then calling different methods in that service to complete requests. However, when I do this, there is the usual hang in the UI thread. I have looked at AsyncTask, but am not sure it will do what I want to accomplish. Because I need to instantly parse the XML that the HTTP Request returns, I need to have a process that is able to return this data to the UI thread. Will ASyncTask be able to accomplish this, or is there some other way.

Doing some simple android networking. My problem is as stated above, i would like to change the UI from a separate thread.
What i would like to do is add "Client successfully connected" to the EditText i have. The connection to the server is handled by a separate thread, and that is why i would like to do this. Another reason is, i have a different thread always listening for to what the server says, and what ever the server does say i would like to show it in the EditText.
I always get the following error:
Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views
Ran into another problem. My code involves socket connections. It works just fine on the emulator. How ever it doesn't work on my phone. It was working a day or two ago, then just magically stopped. LogCat simply says permission denied.
