Are the processes in android asynchronous? If they are asynchronous then how can we conclude when the activity or process is finished or completed its execution.

Sometimes the DDMS in the Eclipse not listing the process.
To do the debug in this condition,
1) Is their any way force the DDMS to list the process?
2) Any command to attach the process from the command line?
At a certain point in my program, when I'm completely done with my service, my activity executes unbindService() and stopService() -- yet the process persists. I can tell that it persists because I run "ps" in "adb -e shell":
CODE:.............
"adb logcat", I can show you the sequence of events:
ACTIVITY: context.unbindService(serviceConnection);
SERVICE: onUnbind();
ACTIVITY: stopService(serviceIntent); & returns true!
SERVICE: onDestroy();
First, my activity calls unbindService(serviceConnection). According to the documentation, unbindService() will "Disconnect from an application service. You will no longer receive calls as the service is restarted, and the service is now allowed to stop at any time." So that is fine, and it is happening.
Appropriately, we see the onUnbind() call happen on the service side. According to the documentation, onUnbind() is called when "all clients have disconnected from a particular interface published by the service." So this confirms the correct service connection is being passed, and that the service is responding accordingly.
Next, my activity calls stopService(serviceIntent), and returns true. According to the documentation, stopService() does the following: "If there is a service matching the given Intent that is already running, then it is stopped and true is returned; else false is returned." Again, this is happening and returning true.
In response, the service's onDestroy() method is called. According to the documentation, onDestroy() is "Called by the system to notify a Service that it is no longer used and is being removed. The service should clean up any resources it holds (threads, registered receivers, etc) at this point. Upon return, there will be no more calls in to this Service object and it is effectively dead."
At this point I expect the process to disappear from the process table. Yet it remains indefinitely. But why?
Also, the process is so persistent that I can bind to it again, and I see that it is the same exact process responding because the PID (process ID) is the same!
So, I decided to give Tridents ROM a try about 10-minutes ago.
I used ROM Manager, backed-up my old ROM, then downloaded Velocity 0.2.
Now, my phone will do nothing, it turns on and shows the red Droid eye, then when it's time to go to the home screen I get pop-up after pop-up saying that "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have no way of getting on my phone at all, what can I do?
I Just installed a new theme (Live Wire) for my Lithium Mod Rom. Don't know if there is a connection, but when I need to update an app, I get the message something like "process android media process stopped unexpectedly" and it will not allow the update. Everything else works well. I have turned it off for awhile, and have done a battery pull.

When I searched for this message it seemed to be related to people using Gmail, but I always get this message when I'm doing other things and not even touching my Gmail account.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a new phone, but I can not run it.
I get the following information: "Sorry! The process com.google.process.gaps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".
I've searched around the forums (here and SDX forums) and although it seems the few people that had this issue were able to solve it, my case seems a bit different.
It's different because of the people I've read solving the issue, it was a problem with something they changed / removed with gmail / gmail storage or talk / talk storage. And when they cleared the cache or re-installed the problem went away. Also, it seemed that the same people had a problem with downloading from the market...
Neither of the above apply to me, but yet I'm still getting this FC error all the time!
I was helping a friend with their CL14 Moment out of the box...and went from stock 1.5 CL14 to 2.1 DD03 w/Joey recovery to EclairDD10 and v5 root. I then did the streaming media fix, and then the private app (build.prop) fix (all previously done with my phone no problems). I did all of these update right in a row, and after my last re-boot the FC error (process com.google.process.gapps has stoped unexpectedly) started showing up and won't go away.
The only .apk / odex files I removed were the preloaded Sprint apps
Does anybody have any other ideas on how I can get this FC error to stop? I've tried clearing the cache / data for all the mail / talk apps, rebooted, cleared dalvik cache...
Keep getting this message "The process com.google.process.gapps has stooped working unexpectedly. Any thoughts on what this is and how to resolve?

I'd like to design a security application without having to modify the firmware, if possible (yes I know about "security through obscurity"...).
Can anyone tell me where can I see the active process and current process. I think we can see in the DDMS --> Devices.But when see the process list, when I launch a application it showing that applications process in the list. after finishing that application also it showing it process in the process list.So how can see only the current active prcocess (Foregroud,Background..etc). I want to see only the current process which running on the device/emulator.One more thing. when I hold on the Home button for long time, It is showing a list. What that list means. whether that list is For the forgrund running apps or active apps or that is a History.

I have a design problem with my Android components.
My activity is starting a service which is doing the work in the background. What I want is that the service informs the activity about state changes. How can I do this?
Normally I would add an observer but the activity has no reference to the service. Then I was thinking to take AIDL but this is more for inter-process communication.
How is it possible that the service informs the activity about state changes? Both are running in the same process. What can you recommend?
Is there any way to display all the process IDs to a user?
I think to display the current ID can use the following code:
int myProcessID = Process.myPid();
But how do I display all process IDs?
According to the docs in the Android developer's site, processes can be used to reduce overhead by running the code of multiple .apks in the same process. (see application model) What I'm wondering is HOW I can run multiple .apk in the same process.
Since an image from one of the Google I/O video shows that process can run one .apk or just part of one .apk, I'm little confused about processes.
I was wondering if there was some sort of app that modifies the on/off function slightly??
Basically the only button that lights up the screen from it being dormant is the on/off button at the top - the trouble is its also the only button that is needed to start the phone up from it being switched off!!
I recently went on a flight thinking my phone was off only to get to the end of a 7 hour flight to realise that it must have been nudged or something because the phone had been on constantly!!
Its also annoying at night when I turn it off then cant remember if I have turned it off and the only way to check is press the on/off button to check - which turns it on and I have to wait for the boot up to then switch it off again!
How do I get the Package Name if I am having the PID of the process. For example, if I want to output a list of currently running processes, I can get the PIDs but how do I get the names of the PIDs?

Should I sign both the application with the same certificate?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've noticed that the PNGs of my application with some gradients effects looked terribly bad at the device (a Samsung Galaxy) and at the emulator, and I've found the following note at the documentation (http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/2d- graphics.html):
Image resources placed in res/drawable/ may be automatically optimized with lossless image compression by the aapt tool. For example, a true-color PNG that does not require more than 256 colors may be converted to an 8-bit PNG with a color palette. This will result in an image of equal quality but which requires less memory. So be aware that the image binaries placed in this directory can change during the build. If you plan on reading an image as a bit stream in order to convert it to a bitmap, put your images in the res/raw/ folder instead, where they will not be optimized."
I've tried the res/raw suggestion, but it didn't worked.
I've tried to use the image as JPEG as a workaround, but I couldn't use 9-patch.
I've uploaded a comparison between the original png and the "optimized" png that is shown on the emulator or devices: [url]
One workaround would be put the images at /assets/ and manually load and set the image on the ImageViews, but it requires a lot of code changes.
I have developed an Android Widget, and it was working fine. I added some extra functionality and pushed an update through the Android Market. Now people are complaining that it doesn't work anymore.
The error I see in the logs is:

I cannot find anywhere what the process is bad error means. Restarting the phone (or emulator) makes the error go away, however, that is not what I want my users to do. explain what the cause of the error is.
