Is there any sample code or documentation on writing a driver for a USB device connected to the phone? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Regards Dave

Does anyone submit source code into Android code? Is there limitation to someone that sumbit? How to do this procedure? (I would like to submit device driver into Android kernel source code)
If you look at the Android documentation about how to implement a List View and populate it you will notice that they only teach you how to do it in Java extending ListActivity instead of the normal Activity, but how would the same code (layout and populate the list) using XML layout files and extending Activity?
I'm asking this because I want to implement a RelativeLayout and add more elements to the screen where the ListView is with more flexibility than using .inflate() and addHeaderView()/addFooterView().
On the documentation page "Developing on a Device" http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html there may be two errors in the section "Setting up a Device for Development."
First: To run (not debug) an app on a device, you do not need to set the "debuggable" attribute in the manifest. The documentation implies this is a requirement. It may be a good idea, but, when stepping an absolute beginner through the process of running their first app, this is an unnecessary detour.
Second: The instructions for turning on USB debugging don't mention the Settings activity: "On the device, go to the home screen, press MENU, select Applications > Development, then enable USB debugging."
The first error is more of a quibble, but the second seems to be actual misinformation that may puzzle a beginner, wondering why there isn't an "Applications" item on the Home app menu. In most cases this should go "Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging," and the menu key is not involved.
Can anyone tell me how to setup vold.conf for USB. I can't find any documentation on it. I want vold to mount a hotplugged USB storage device and broadcast notifications (intents) when it is plugged and unplugged.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to have two projects, one that contains production code and one that contains test code. This shouldn't necessarily be an Android-specific question, but I'm want to write some unit tests for some non-platform-specific Android code on the host PC.
I created a new Java project so I can run the unit tests on the PC and only include the non-platform-specific classes from the Android project. Both projects are opened in the same Eclipse workspace. I assume I need to somehow include these Android-project sources explicitly in the new project where I'll run the Junit tests, but I can't figure out how to do this.
Was just wondering if anyone had any code samples about writing and retrieving data from a website? I am currently creating an application which populates its textviews by accessing information from an online source.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to modify the Android device driver for calibre (an e-book management program) so that it identifies devices by only vendor id and product id, and excludes BCD.
The driver is a fairly simply python plugin, and is currently set up to use all three numbers, but apparently, when Android devices use custom Android builds (ie CyanogenMod for the Nexus One), it changes the BCD so calibre stops recognizing it.
The current code looks like this, with a simple list of vendor id's, that then have allowed product id's and BCD's with them:
CODE:..........
The line I'm specifically trying to change is:
CODE:............
Which is, the line for identifying a Nexus One. My N1, running CyanogenMod 5.0.5, has the BCD 0x226, and rather than just adding it to the list, I'd prefer to eliminate the BCD from the recognition process, so that any device with vendor id 0x18d1 and product id 0x4e11 or 0x4e12 would be recognized. The custom Android rom doesn't change enough for the specifics to matter.
The syntax seems to require the BCD in brackets.
How can I edit this so that it matches anything in that field?
I've already installed the drivers and adb,but adb shell shows no device.The 2nd LG USB Modem installed as an Android Phone.I'm using winXP,SP2 PRO, these are my steps.enable USB Debugging mode,dial 3845....and enable root permission,restart my phone,connect my phone to PC,install the drivers.win+R TO open CMD window,cd to the sdk tools directory,adb shell,shows device not found in my device manager,there's an android phone class,under it is an android Adb.

Windows 7 x64 detects a device called "Android" when you connect the tablet and says no driver found.

No matter how many times I reinstall the device drivers, they all install correctly besides the Android ADB Device driver.

When I plug my Droid into the PC, I get a mass storage device that installs OK most of the time, and an "unknown device".. Even when I mount the SD from the phone, I still see no Drive in my computer The unknown device never installs. I have tried almost every suggestion i have seen.. reboot pc..reinstall MML, reboot phone.. no luck

The google SDK driver doesn't yet work with the Incredible, and though it can be hacked - this download might be easier for some.

When integrating AdMob ads into your application it is recommended to use test mode. In test mode test, ads are always returned. Test mode is enabled on a per-device basis. To enable test mode for a device, first request an ad, then look in LogCat for a line like the following:
To get test ads on the emulator use AdManager.setTestDevices...Once you have the device ID you can enable test mode by calling AdManager.setTestDevices:

Is there a way to check if our code is running in the emulator vs a real device? I'm using a Map View which requires a signing key. I'm using the signature of the eclipse debug key when running on the emulator, but this won't work when I build a release version. I think I need to have a check to see if I'm running on a real device, and set it to the real release key at that time.
