In v1.5 of the SDK, the Maps/Streetview app is not installed in the emulator. I'm relying on launching an implicit intent which maps my addresses for me. Is there a way to test this in the emulator, i.e, do I need to install something extra? I'm presuming this is on the actual G1 phone with v1.5. Does anyone know? I'm also getting 100% failures in calls to getFromLocationName(). Is this related?

Launching a Streetview intent for a location doesn't guarantee that a Streetview exists for that location. If the Streetview doesn't exist, the user just sees a black screen that spins. Is there a way to programmatically check if it exists before launching the Streetview intent?

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Google Maps and Instagram, I restarted my device too. But it doesnt solve the problem.
I tried checking /system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar , I thought I lost this file but the file is there..
This is a rare problem and I only found 2 search results on Google about this problem, and both were found on XDA forum. One had his problem solved by placing this .jar file there. The other one tried placing the .jar file but no luck.
It's bothering me. Because I think it will affect other application that uses google maps. But I'm not sure. And I don't want to reinstall the whole ROM because I have partitioned my SD card, put many stuff in it, I dont want to start it all over just because of this small problem.
I am currently trying to use StreetView in my application, but I does not work. I use an AVD based on the Google API which has Maps (display a simple map works well). My activity extends MapActivity and tries to call streetview:
CODE:.............................
The problem is that I always catch an exception:
CODE:........................
I have enabled StreetView with .setStreetView(true) but it don't load, so I don't know if I have enable other things.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI ask because I began using My Tracks a couple of weeks ago...very cool. I logged onto Google Maps from my office and there were the "tracks" I had saved. I never took action to upload them, they were just there I suppose as a function of allowing Google to sync. BUT I created and saved a map on the PC expecting to be able to see it on my phone, but it didn't happen.

I've been trying to modify the native android applications downloaded from the android source repo at github. But I noticed that after creating Eclipse projects from some apps, like the Launcher, there are missing imports, variables that are not declared anywhere else, etc... After my initial research, I noticed that some of the libs that are native, are compiled at runtime and registered in the dalvik VM as java libs and by having done this the system finds these as already present libs, the same goes for the "phantom" variables. But I don't understand how does a developer open such a project in any java ide, and compile it. So what do Google developers use to work on android apps? I don't believe it's eclipse, since I am not sure you can make eclipse use runtime imports, and runtime variables. And I am almost certain that they do not write code in notepad.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI haven't been using the Facebook app since the version 1.3.2 battery issue, but I've noticed that recently it's been updated to 1.4.1. So I thought I'd give it another try, and they seem to have fixed the battery issue which is great, but I'm now missing notifications (i.e. when you tap the blue bar at the bottom you get a list of comments people have made either after your comments, or on your photos and things). For example, this morning I had 8 notifications on the app, but when I checked the mobile site there were two that hadn't pushed through to the facebook app. Anyone else get this? I have the feeling I'm missing a really simple setting somewhere.

I have several Google Calendars that I sync with my DROID Incredible running 2.1 update 1. One of my calendars recently quit showing up its data, although I have it selected on the phone AND all data displays fine on Google Calendars. I have tried reselecting some of the other calendars in case Android had a max number it would display. I have deselected and reselected the calendar on Google thinking that may refresh it but still no luck. Funny thing is, the calendar used to show up fine. Don't know when I lost it exactly. Any ideas?

If calendar apis are omitted then how can i find the events/meeting information stored in the calendar app of the phone.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run the "HelloTriangle" example, from The OpenGL ES 2.0 Programming Guide, in the Android emulator.I import egl.EGLConfig and opengles.GL10 from javax.microedition.khronos, but the ESContext type and definitions such as GL_COMPILE_STATUS and GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER can't be resolved.I reworked the triangle example somewhat for Android in that I'm using GLSurfaceView. I undertand that it is supposed to be used instead of OpenGLContext in the newer versions of the SDK.Am I using a "non-Android" approach to OpenGL ES? If so, what's the right one?
