Android :: Reflection For A Field Going Wrong
Jun 1, 2010
I have been trying to use reflection for a specifiec Field in the android.os.build class, the MANUFACTURER field...
I have tried by using this code :.............
I am gettign the following errors :
code:..........
And when debugging I noticed that InvocationtargetException is continuesly thrown, so I am guessing I haven't been implementing the whole Reflection principle correctly...
Any idea where things are going wrong or otherwise on how to implement Refelction for a single Field correctly ?

I currently have an app on the market that supports Android 1.5 (SDK level 3) and up. It also takes advantage of several features that are only present in Android 2.0 (SDK level 5) and up. I do this using Reflection.
I read a post on the Android Developer Blog that talks about how to support these new features while using no Reflection, which would be amazing. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/07/how-to-have-your-cupcake-and-eat-it-too.html <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="5" />
I have tested this out and while it works there is one huge downfall. Currently if I try to add a SDK level 5 class, but I don't know that it's a SDK level 5 class, there is no worries. Eclipse isnt going to find the class and I'm not going to be able to add it.
Using Google's recommended method does allow me to add the classes and gives me no notification that this code is targeted just to SDK level 5 users. This opens up too big of a possibility of adding in code that would break some users without knowing.
Does anyone know of any plugins, options, etc that would warn me at the places I have targeted SDK level 5 to keep this from happening?

Does dalvik have any limitation it puts on classfiles, mainly size related? In groovy we have a huge class thats need to be able to be reflected upon, but it silently fails. IE theres no error during build(dex) or load time but calls to the reflective methods throws a no such method exception. This file is above 13000 lines of code and contains a vast number of methods so size limitations seems probable, or are there any other ways reflection can fail for a normal java class? Oh, and cutting the file down in size made it work but is not optimal since it contains all of groovy's utility methods.

I'm writing an android app that requires binding a JSON object into a domain entity with the keys from the JSON as instance variables. Since there are several domain entities, each with different instance variables that the JSON needs to bind to in the app, i'd like to write a method such as ths following: Loop through all the instance variables from the domain if a key exists in the JSON with the name of the instance variable, take the value for this key from the JSON and set the Domain's instance variable with this key name equal to this value. The reason i'm interested in the doing the binding from the class to the JSON is because if the JSON changes for some reason, I don't want it to break the app when the instance variable doesn't exist in the app's domain for a specific JSON key. Code...

My point is to be able to call a 2.1 API if it exists, while the application should be able to run in 1.5
Specifically, I am making a GPS application which would like to call android.location.LocationManager.addNmeaListener if available. My problem is that this call takes as parameter an abstract class (GpsStatus.NmeaListener) which I cannot pass directly to Class.GetMethod (or my application won't work in 1.5). What I am currently trying is a) to create a wrapper class for GpsStatus.NmeaListener:......................

I work at a small company that fields autonomous android devices which programmatically connect to bluetooth telemetry devices. These devices require pins, so we need to automatically create a pairing in order to connect to the bluetooth devices. We DO have root access.
Since the new Bluetooth Stack in Android 4.2, I have been unable to use this common AIDL bluetooth reflection method in our private utility app:
Code:
public IBluetooth getIBluetooth() {
IBluetooth ibt = null;
try {
Class c2 = Class.forName("android.os.ServiceManager");
Method m2 = c2.getDeclaredMethod("getService",String.class);
IBinder b = (IBinder) m2.invoke(null, "bluetooth");
[code]...
The issue about this strategy no longer working is documented here. I previously used the setPin method as well as the createBond method from this Interface, and now I cannot.
Is there anyway to manually create a bluetooth pair profile under Android 4.2? Is there a database file where the profiles are stored that we can use root and sqlite3 to access?

I've been going over the android sdk for the past year to find out if there is a way to change the network type(2g/3g/4g), in phones with root access.However I couldn't find any way to do this.Asking around,someone told me that I could do this using reflection,by calling a method on a phone instance.Looking through the source code,I did find a setPrefferedNetworkType(); method in the Phone Interface,inside the internal telephony package.Is there anyway I can use this to solve my problem.I can't seem to find a way to get an instance of a class that implements the interface.Or is there any other way to do it entirely?

I have noticed a rash of EMF "detectors" currently available for the iPhone 3GS only.
Does the Milestone/Droid series phones have the capability to detect EMF and if so does anyone know of a current app or one in development that will do this? I've searched the app store without finding a clear result.

I have an EditText field and a button. My aim is to let user enter text info to the EditText or click the button to launch a dialog to select some checkbox and radio button which it will perform some computation and return a value to display at the EditText field.
I can't seems to get the value to display at the EditText field after the dialog dismiss. I did try a toast to display the value and it is ok. I *think* the view was not refresh to display the text in the EditText field.

Is it possible to use AdapterView with text fields in android?
My query returns a set of values and for each I want to place that within a textfield, so that the user may edit the value.
Also, I want to click a button to create a new empty field, so that I may insert a new entry.
If you know of good example, then please let me know!
I would prefer to use XML to define ui and I found this informations:
"In this case we create a new id called text1. The + after the @ in the id string indicates that the id should be automatically created as a resource if it does not already exist, so we are defining text1 on the fly and then using it." Source http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/notepad/notepad-ex1.html
Will this + allow me to autocreate as many fields as needed? Is there a way I can generically specify the layout in XML and then create fields adhoc based on db response?

I have build a sort of split view for one of my android applications. I have made an activity which is a container of a listview and a framelayout. I use the listview for a menu and in my framelayout, I load views of different activities. I have read the source code of the TabHost for building this system.
Activities that I load in my framelayout could contain a webview.
The system work pretty well but I have a big issue. When I click on a field in a webview, the soft keyboard doesn't appear and typing on the physical keyboard has no affect.
I have made many many researches and I found nothing.

When I look at all the views in HierarchyViewer, why there are multiple views's 'hasFocus' is true? I am under the assumption that only 1 view can have focus at a time. If so, why there are multiple view's hasFocus be true?

I need to retain a complex object in my service, so I can reliably come back to it (it holds updates). Initially I coded it just as a class filed in my Service implementation but I'm observing that the updates object is periodically reset to null which tells me that server class itself is recreated. Can someone recommend lightweight reliable strategy to save and recreate such updates object (I can make it serializable)

In my app I am displaying a table where the individual cells are editable text fields (i.e. EditText objects). I am currently struggling calculating appropriate widths for these.
If I set the width to be as many "Ems" as the displayed text has characters, my fields are much to wide by about a factor of 2 and the table looks ugly and wastes lots of precious screen space. Setting the width in "Ems" is essentially like assuming the worst case, i.e. the width of a string under the assumption that it contains only the broadest characters in a font, usually 'M' (hence the name of the method), 'm', 'W', or '_'). But on average strings contain narrower characters and so most of these fields are half empty and much too wide for their actual content. I am thus desperately seeking a way to calculate a better fitting width, not that worst case width.
The "normal" way to do this in Java (in AWT or Swing at least) is to asks a widget's current Font (actually a Font's FontMetrics), to calculate and return the width that will be necessary to display a given string in pixels. But how does one obtain a TextView's Font? I haven't found any method to obtain a (Text)View's font and/or calculate a more appropriate width given the actual content of a cell's text string. How does one do that in Android?

Does anyone know if there is standard way to get error reports from android applications running on other people's android devices? E.g. I release an android app and it goes out there. I'd love for any error to trigger an apology screen that invited the user to input a description of what happened, and then have that data along with program state and stack trace sent back to me.

I'm working on an application that will randomly point an arrow in a direction, and have that arrow maintain it's direction if the device is moved. All I want to do it get the magnetic field readings as degrees and I can do it from there. The problem I'm having is getting the magnetic field readings. I can't find any tutorials on it and the API demo on google's dev site uses deprecated code (figures, google's sample code is never n00b friendly).
At this point I've got this together but I don't know what I'm missing, all the examples I can find are using SensorListener which has onSensorChanged(int sensor, float[] values) but SensorEventListener does not support "float[] values"

New to Android, I have some code when the user changes a preference I update the Summary field in the UI preference to be the value they entered. However, when the preference activity is created I'd like to set the Summary fields to be the values in the corresponding preferences.
Please advise. Thanks.
public class MyPreferenceActivity extends PreferenceActivity implements OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener { protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preference);
SharedPreferences sp = getPreferenceScreen().getSharedPreferences();
sp.registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this);
} public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences sharedPreferences, String key) { Preference pref = findPreference(key); if (pref instanceof EditTextPreference) { EditTextPreference etp = (EditTextPreference) pref; pref.setSummary(etp.getText());
} } }
