I can not see my device on adb devices. I also got a Sony Xperia and I can not see it on the list either. I upgraded the phone software (the HTC) to 1.6 a few days ago. Maybe that is what caused the change, but I could not be sure.

I try to learn java for android devices. i have to create the update function. But still have one question: How?
in class root
public void update(){maindebug("update"); // This is my debug function}
public void run(){ while(isRunning){ // isRunning is a boolean variable
SystemClock.sleep(100);
update();}}
and inside onCreate run(); but it doesnt work.
All laptops should work, but what about other devices?
iPad - ok

Basically I'm wondering if it will tell me if I'm doing something that won't work on older versions of the OS.
I have an application in the Market called Coverage Mapper.
In my Market account, it's setup as follows: Free Copy Protection off Available in Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, United Kingdom, United States
The relevant parts of my manfiest can be found at http://pastebin.ca/1904517
Two people have told me they can't see it in the Market. One is using an unknown device on WIND Mobile (Canada). The other is using a Motorola DEXT (Android 1.5, GSM-based, has a GPS) on Bell (Canada).
Any idea why they can't see it? Would I be better off just opening it up to all countries?
I have a feeling like it might have to do with the uses-feature elements in my manifest, but even after reading all the documentation, I'm still not sure about it.
There is a variety of devices on the market, with different screen sizes, resolutions and pixel density.
What are some layout preferences or tips/tricks that are generally used to make sure the app looks the same across devices?
Has anyone seen that their applications built against Android 2.0 (minSdkVersion="5") are not showing up at all in the market for 2.2 devices? Does anyone know a workaround (aside from building for 2.2).

I bought a stereo bluetooth receiver from DealExtreme for $13 so I could use it in my car. It has a built in mic, so if calls come in, I can pick them up, but I drive a convertible, so it's too noisy in the car to use that.
I also have a jawbone bluetooth headset that I use in the car...it works great for phone calls in a noisy enviroment.
I just discovered that if I go to Settings:Wireless Controls:Bluetooth Settings and long press on the BCK-08 (the stereo bluetooth module), I can select options, and uncheck the 'phone audio'.
Now, I can use both at the same time...and the cool thing is that if a call comes in while listening to music, it mutes the music till I hang up, then starts it back up where it left off!
I know there isn't bluetooth API in 1.0 SDK, but I have a doubt. I need to know the visible bluetooth devices. That is, I only need do a scan of the bluetooth devices and save the diferent addresses. I don't need connect to them.
I have read here
http://groups.google.com/group/android-beginners/browse_thread/thread...
that API "only expose functionality to use/control headsets (audio profile)."
And now my question: It is possible do this functionality? Can I find which bluetooth devices are visible?
I'm looking to create a button in my app that essentially does the same thing as if a user went to "Settings"->"Wireless & Networks"- >"Bluetooth settings" and opted to connect (or disconnect) to a

We acquired a Samsung Moment today, and find that it's 3D performance is very poor compared to the HTC and Motorola devices. I've tried all the tricks I know (color depths, rendering options), but can't get much out of it. Rotating a single textured quad is jerky. I understand that the Galaxy was missing a software component, and that once a surrogate was added, the 3D performance was acceptable. Does anybody have the real low-down on this issue? Specifically: * Do others also find the Moment to be a poor 3D performer? * Is there any word about Samsung fixing this? * Am I missing something obvious?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to connect to connect to my T-Mobile G1 to test a simple android app I an creating. I cannot get it to show up in the list of connected android devices. Here are the details: - 32-bit Windows XP - I have enabled USB Debugging on my device - I am not prompted with the New Hardware Wizard when I plug my device in, it is merely seen as a new removable drive. It does not appear under any other categories in Device Manager, nor is there a new "Unknown Device" entry anywhere to be found - I have tried "Update Driver" and select the driver that Google provides for their official developer devices, but it says "this driver does not match your device" or something to that effect. Probably because it is expected a device type other than "Disk Drive" - I have tried uninstalling the device under "Disk Drives" and plugging it in again but it always gets reinstalled automatically as a "Disk Drive" - I have tried uninstalling the device, manually installing the Google driver from the INF file and plugging in the device and it is still only recognized as a "Disk Drive" - Most importantly, I get a blank device list when I run "adb devices" from the Android SDK tools directory before and after each step I tried After hours of scouring the web I get the distinct impression that a new device category should be popping up in Device Manager if the driver is installed correctly, but I have not been able to get the device to come up as anything other than a new "Disk Drive"

View 4 Replies View RelatedToday, I placed our new app onto the market store. It can be found by most mobile phones - unfortunately, it cannot be detected by one specific model which is used by one of our customers. It is the Vodafone 845, with a small screen (240x320p) and low density (120 dpi). It's running with Android 2.1, updated version (i.e. SDK 7), and has all the necessary hardware (GPS, cam, and internet access), but, however, doesn't detect the app in the market. I have already tried anyDensity="true". The app is free, not copy protected, and open to all countries. I have the following settings in the manifest:
xmlns:android="xxx"
package="xxx"
android:versionCode="10"
android:versionName="1">
<supports-screens
android:largeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true"
android:smallScreens="true".............
I'm building an application, and need to support both 1.5 (Magic and Hero) and 1.6 (Tattoo) devices.
As Android SDK is forward compatible, it seemed logical to build against Android 1.5 SDK, and expect application to work on Tattoo. While that's true, (I tested app, it works ok), I'm now having problems on Android Market. On Tattoo, Market search by default filters android apps that doesn't have explicit support for small screens defined in AndroidManifest. Problem is that attribute exists only on Android 1.6 SDK, so Building against Android 1.5 SDK is no an option anymore. How safe is to build App agains A1.6 (with minSdkVersion="3") and run it on 1.5 devices? Is there anything else I should take care of except just change target SDK?
Are there any USB functions for Android devices (all user devices, not rooted)? I'm curious because I might want to make an app that puts things through USB
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am a student at a technical university in Finland, and Im currently working on a thesis about how suitable Android platform is for multimedia devices other than smartphones or mobile handsets. Different manufacturers have been experimenting with Android for a while now, and have installed the platform onto new types of devices such as mobile internet devices (Archos 5), tablets (Vega), and even e-book readers (Barnes & Noble nook). Almost all of these manufacturers are also welcoming Android developers to create applications to go with their devices. Compared to the number of applications on Android Market, however, the manufacturers are still very much in the beginning stages with this. I�m hoping to have some idea about what Android developer communities are thinking about this invitation, and so decided to post a poll about it on a few Android forums. Are you interested in developing applications for these kinds of devices, with larger screens and different capabilities from an average mobile phone? If it�s not too much trouble, I�d also be interested in hearing a few words about why you think it would be a good or bad idea. How would it be different from developing for phones? What sort of problems or possibilities do you think would rise from it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm new here and I want to start things out by asking you guys about certain things Android is lacking. As many of you know, the OS is only a year old but is rapidly evolving. I don't own an Android device yet (I currently have the HTC HD2). I'm waiting for Android to grow considerably bigger so I won't have to worry about future upgrades. Android is an awesome OS and a lot of devices carrying the OS is very good, but I feel there are some things is still lacking. In your opinions, what are the things still lacking? I can only think of one (only because my brain is dried out from work): full flash support. I guess you can also add: more memory but this is more of a micro-SD card issue instead of Android.
