Android :: PUSH Tech - SMS From Server To Mobile
Oct 13, 2009
problem: server (web server) wants to send data( or some information) to mobile client (android based phone). means simply notify to start work, then mobile start working on specific application. i would like to do a SMS from server to mobile, to start working. buts its not the best idea. as we can assign too an IP to android mobile phone in case of WiFi or USB connectivity. but phone will use GPRS or GSM, so there is no unique IP of Mobile so that we can access mobile phone using Socket Programing.

Last night and met a lady with a android phone. I asked if her android market was working? and the funny thing was on her non SE phone she had no problems downloiding any thing where as on my X10 I cant download a thing from the market, why is that?
Im trying not to be negitive so please forgive me if I sound that way.
When I call SE support line they are not very helpful with anything, It feels like they dont want to help you or they dont know how to help you.
Many times I call SE support only to turn around and call my provider to figure out a problem

We are designing a system with a PC base station and 100 Android mobiles communicating over WiFi. They will use XLM-RPC as the method of mobile to base station communication. However, sometimes the base station needs to broadcast a message to all mobiles. Should we use "http server push" for this, i.e., have the base station leave the connections open to all the mobiles? Is there a better way? Publish-subscribe is possible, but doesn't seem mature on Android yet.

I have recently written a socket server in PHP that will be handling communication between an Android phone application and my PHP webserver. Due to the fact that Android doesn't natively support push style notifications we are going to be using our webserver as the middleware layer to handle our 'pushes'. The socket server is stable, runs well, and seems to scale nicely. While I would eventually like to re-write this in C I don't have the skill necessary to do that right now so I am going to be staying in PHP for at least a short while. As of this moment our Android emulator is able to communicate through the server, get pushes, etc. so that part is all covered.
My concern is that, right now, anyone can open a socket to my server and will be given a client connection. While we won't be passing sensitive data back and forth I don't want to allow just anyone to connect over and receive broadcast information, eat up my resources, and clog my server in general. The question is, how do I secure a server like this? Let's assume that I am running on port 25,000--can I set up some sort of SSL layer on that port and expect devices like the Android to be able to communicate over that port without any special protocols or jumping through hoops? I have considered asking the connecting clients to authenticate their user against our user database before being given a client connection, but that would require the passing of credentials in plain text over the network which I am not about to do.
I am rather new to straight TCP communication from PHP and feel like I might just be missing something simple that allows for authentication on this level.
Additional information: If I am able to get a valid username and password securely I would be using MySQL to validate the user and then accept/reject their connection based on the results of the query.

Is there any build-in mechanism in Android, which could create a service or app that actually listens to some server from the out side.. something that will "Wake up" the phone and makes him receiving a message from an outside server (i am asking this coz most of the appz are working the way around, when the phone sending requests to an outside server to receive data)
is it possible any how?

I understand that HTC Sync will allow for syncing with an exchange server (not just desktop client software). Can anyone confirm that it supports push email and not just periodic checking?

I am planning to design and write an application which displays all possible restaurants/malls etc around the mobile device.For this, do I send the GPS info to the server and let server do the processing and return the list of all possible restaurants/malls or let the mobile device itself process, find and list that. Please advise. I don't want the mobile device to get any slower.

I'm considering how to identify server(s) to an app on a mobile device that utilises a wcf/web service.
(1) I anticipate all going well that I will need to migrate the server between hosts from time to time to handle load. I'd like to be able to do this without service disruption.
(2) I also anticipate that all going well I will want to improve scalability by seperating website hosting and wcf/web service hosting requiring an addressing change on the client. Until the app proves to get traction the server deployment will be shared on the same domain.
Rereleasing the client for this purpose at a glance seems complicated as you can't force updates on consumers and it's non trivial to distinguish between no data connection/server down and a server that's moved.I was thinking this would be a solved problem, so thought to bounce it off the community for better ideas.

About my android smartphone web server,I want to share my private files(contents) over the internet.I want to share the private files(contents) on my smartphone with far away friends over the internet.Normally I can upload them on the internet server and let my friends download them. But I don't want share them public. I can't believe the safety and also can't control the server.Most safe way for this demand is to save the files only on the phone and to let friends access to my phone directly. In other words, I don't need any outer server.So I've looked for a smartphone web server, at last I decided to use the iFMW; GoldenPack's mobile web server application.With the iFMW app, I have own internet URL for my Nexus One and now I can share my private files over the internet directly with special friends desired.
I want to share special files to special friends.I don't want everyone who can access into my phone to look at the same files.For example, I'll share my business files only to the relative officers, and also share my fun contents only to the family members like my wife and sons.So I make several sharing folders individual and put the contents separately. Therefore one group members would be able to access only their folder, because every folder has its own different internet URL and access passcode.iFMW app helps me like this fucking demand.

I run a small phpbb3 forum and have been racking my brains and Google for months trying to work something out.All these types of forums can play embedded videos, which usually have the bbcode tags (youtube)video(/youtube) and they play perfectly on a pc and on most new phones that support streaming media.I wanted though, to embed some of these mp3 player widgets to showcase a few playlists. The way I'm doing it at the moment is to put a section of HTML code containing the mp3 player widget directly into a post, which works fine on a pc. On a phone however, all thats visible is the HTML code.
Given that its not the phone, as it plays embedded streaming video from youtube, I'm presuming that theres a vital step that I'm missing somewhere to allow a phone to play an embedded widget containing streaming mp3s.
Apologies in advance for this not being a direct Android question, but if anyone can help,

Ok so this poll will determine which carrier has more issues with service, like towers down, crappy audio service,crappy devices provided through them,and just how many times do you actually end up calling for issues with your phone or carrier service issues? for example...If your att click on att on the poll and then on the thread type in about twice a month or maybe once in 2 to three month,whatever.

I'm looking at 3 different apps to develop for the Android, but I'm new to the platform (come over from Blackberry - yuck!).
Anyhow - I need to know if there is some way to push data to the phone from a server. I'd prefer to avoid using SMS to push (user charges), or constantly polling the server (lets see, every 5 seconds = 12 times a minute, 720 times an hour, over 17000 a day)

I just got my refurb of my palm pre and she was excited about the Evo and I said too bad Tampa has no 4g. She said the clearwire techs are working right now but the reason it was not announced is that their are some endangered birds nests in some of the towers preventing them from doing anything until they naturally leave. She said Wimax should be running in Tampa by the end of the summer.

I've looked at the tech specs of the Nexus One at the google store -Nexus One Phone - Feature overview & Technical specifications
I'm not that geeked up so, I'm wondering if it looks like the Nexus has anything on the Droid?
The 4 gb micro sd seemed pretty underwhelming to me. I know it's expandable to 32 but still...

I have the OTA update and have had several issues that through this forum I've tried to correct but it just keeps getting more frustrating every day. I was on vacation and was using it as an alarm only to find that if you don't turn off and on the alarm every day, it won't work (and I had it set to S-S). I miss calls all the time, all over town, going straight to voice mail. The dialer lags all the time (except when I accidentally hit the wrong number, then it works like a champ ). My voice mail programed pin hesitates every time, not like the lighting speed it used to run on 1.5; so much so I'm not sure it will go through sometimes. My email notifications stutter or doubles for the same email. The phone gets very warm when I haven't used it for several hours and within a good cell signal area so I know it shouldn't be working to get a signal.
With all that said, I really liked the phone on 1.5 and would kill to get it back to that but I don't see that as a viable solution.I stopped into one of the local stores and told the guy I wanted my phone to work like it used to.He said I needed to take it to one of the tech support shops and be prepared to leave it for several hours for it to be checked.So here is my question (finally).I want to take it to the shop in case it is a bad handset but I need to clear the phone of sensitive information first.I get all my work emails on my phone, many of them sensitive information, along with web site access to my company's internal system. I need to make sure that all that information is cleared from the phone before I take it in.

I talked with a VZW tech just a few minutes ago.I described her the silent bug problem on 2.1.She said she is a Droid user and her daughter has an Eris.She said she had frequent freezeup on her Droid and now she reccomends to do one reboot every day. She says she had not had a problem since she has been doing this.She made a mark on my file about my complain and recommended to try the once-a-day reboot for a week. If the problem persists, the store will issue a new phone.I will try this reboot thing each night, will see how it goes.I am a bit worried about the exchange they perhaps would give me a refurb, and what is the guarantie that I won't end up with the same problem.

I've got an old i.Tech Virtual Keyboard I'd like to use with my Galaxy S.I downloaded KeyPro from the Market and jumped through the hoops.However, after selecting my VKB as input method for a memo KeyPro crashed when I punched the first key. It subsequently crashed whenever I tried to use the keyboard, change any settings, and even when I tried to uninstall it (which eventually worked, thank God).Does anyone else have any experience with this?Have I been unlucky or is this just a spectacularly shoddy piece of programming?
