I'm assuming you'll see this, but I'm just extremely curious.
It's a pain since I really can't find the answer for my questions anywhere else, and this seems to be the best place to ask as there are actual Google developers here.

I already had about 4 messages deleted from this forum. They were serious questions that i had and some moderator is simply deleting them. Now i'm unable to get help to my issues. I have an important project that must be delivered in Feb 1st and this attitude of the moderators is delaying the project.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am new to this group. I had posted a question yesterday in this group. It didn't appear. I thought I made a mistake; so I posted it today and it didn't appear either. I realized now that this group has something called moderators before it reaches the posting. Am I missing something or did anything wrong? My question was a simple application question and didn't have any bad language in it. Could some please let me know if the question was rejected? If so what is reason so that I can correct it.

View 7 Replies View RelatedWhere on this forum do I post general Android questions? Question and issues pertaining to programs, apps, features, use of Android across all phones that are not specifically (or necessarily) related to the HTC Hero. This is because I would like to address the question to all Android users using any phone.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to create such application that would show a question to user and possible 3 (or n) answers and user should pick correct answer (some kind of learning quiz). I'm not sure about the storage for those data - questions and possible answers. What would be most natural way for Android. I know that I can either use property files or tables in sqlite database. There will be about 500 items (1 question, 3 answers, 1 correct answer ). Any ideas?
View 11 Replies View RelatedAfter I updated to the 2.1 I get the following options when I connect my phone to my computer via USB:
Charge Only
--Charge phone over USB
HTC Sync
--sync contacts and calendar
Disk Drive
--Mount as Disk Drive
Internet Sharing
--Share phone's mobile network with PC
When I click on Internet Sharing I get the following message:
Data Call Failure
"Error Code 67 .Registration failure.

However I have no way of adding that information. Is this a service you have to pay for (extra) in your Sprint Bill? Or is it a bug in the 2.1 update.
I just have a couple of questions:
1. What is the risk of bricking my device really? Has anyone here ever had a problem with it before?
2. Does rooting absolutely void your warranty no matter what?
3. If it does void your warranty, can they turn you down if your phone breaks for something unrelated to rooting? For example if I root my phone now, and then 4 months later I drop it and it breaks will they fix it?
4. How do they know if you rooted your phone? If I brick it accidentally is there any way for them to know that it was rooted if I don't tell them? I mean it could have just as easily been a manufacturing error, they wouldn't know until they've restored it to it's original state.
Anyone know if there is a game available like "20 questions" for the iphone? You think of an object and the game asks you a series of questions trying to guess what you are thinking. I just played 4 rounds with a fellow at work and its pretty accurate. Anything like that for the hero?

I'd like to be able to write code where I could pull the host, port, etc. out of a properties file and not have to write fake Schemes and other things like that in order to do the development work. In other words, the live site will have a cert. The dev site will have a self-signed cert or a CA cert. Either way, I need the code to seamlessly work with both kinds of certs if possible. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Some of the apps I have seen can accept touch and keyboard requests that the same time but I cannot figure out how they are doing it. This is what happens in my app. Please shed some light on why this happens. If I touch the screen the keyboard is no longer responsive until I ackmoved the TrBall which takes me out of touchmode. I have used apps that seamlessly go from touch and keyboard without the need of moving the trackball.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a button that launches the google maps app on my device via an intent. I want to be able to pass it a php page that generates a KML file.
I have done this on a website before using the googlemaps api in JS - but it doesn't seem to work on Android.
My php file is as follows;
CODE:..............
Launching with:

It launches maps, finds the file - but won't display it 'because it contains errors'.
Is this just not possible, or are there other ways to construct the intent that might work?
I have been trying to setup a Droid to Droid 3G connection. I can confirm that all works great in wifi mode. The Droid can make connection requests (Http, Telnet, raw sockets) in 3G, but I cannot get the Droid to accept a socket connection in 3G mode. I am using the java.net.ServerSocket class. If anyone knows how to program the Droid to accept socket connection requests over 3G, please respond. Also, if anyone knows why this is not allowed please respond.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup at ServerSocket on my Android phone, and send a char or int or anything from my computer. The code on the phone creates a ServerSocket and then blocks whilst waiting for a connection(plus some more bits if the socket is created. But I'm not getting this point, so left that out!)Basically, the phone is getting to accept, and the computer is not connecting. The xx.xx.xx.xx is the public IP of the phone I obtain programatically (and it matches up with checking on whatismyip.com).I have set the INTERNET permission on the phone. I have also been able to do this in reverse (ServerSocket on pc, client on phone).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get googlemaps to accept a local KML file.
final Intent myIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=file://" + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/locate.kml"));
startActivity(myIntent);
The file is on the SD card, and is a valid KML file. Google Maps loads up, but says it cannot find the file.
final Intent myIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=http://www.website.com/locate.kml"));
startActivity(myIntent);
Works fine. geo: 0,0? q= seems to be very under documented, how to use it to refer to a local file?
I'm trying to implement my own phone call handling UI. What I want to do is, if a call comes in, the incoming telephone number and a picture are displayed, and, if I press a button, the incoming call will be accepted/answered.
Sadly, the code does not work. At first, an exception is thrown if I press my answer button:
ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent {act=android.intent.action.ANSWER
Then I added an entry in the AndroidManifest.xml: I run the app again, there is no exception anymore. However, I doubt the incoming call is not really accepted. Because if the press the Android's screen answer button (green button), the incoming call is accepted and a green in call icon is also displayed on the upper left corner of the emulator screen, while my app doesn't.
I also read the Phone app's source code in android source. There is method such as acceptCall() in the Phone class. But these codes seem difficult for me to use, because there are many imports declaration in the code, such as :
import com.android.internal.telephony.Call;
import com.android.internal.telephony.CallStateException;
import com.android.internal.telephony.CallerInfo;
import com.android.internal.telephony.CallerInfoAsyncQuery;
import com.android.internal.telephony.Connection;
import com.android.internal.telephony.MmiCode;
import com.android.internal.telephony.Phone;
And, if I add these imports in my code, there will be too many errors, such as : "The import com.android.internal.telephony cannot be resolved" What is the right and simple way for my problem?

I have a TextWatcher set on an EditText that changes the input type after a user types a number followed by a space. If the user types two numbers the input type switches and accepts the next character, but if the user types only one number and presses space the input type still changes but it won't accept the first character the user tries to input. I've tested this on Froyo and 1.6, it only happens on Froyo, 1.6 works like it should.

It is very sporatic but happens quite frequently. Sometimes i will see an incoming call, hear the ringer, then when i click "Accept" it appears to be connected, but i hear dead silence. Then about 10 seconds later the call is ended. It may happen a few times in a row, and it also may not happen. I never have any issues dialing out though. I know the people calling me, and sometimes it is people who don't call regularly. They wouldn't play games like prank call me.
