Android :: Regarding Device Level APIs

Apr 25, 2009

I could see there are many APIs available in Android. If I have to create some device driver do I need to use Java(Android) for that also. Or that will be in C?

Android :: Device Chooser Doesn't List Emulators With Older APIs Than Build Version

Nov 13, 2010

My application is built on 2.2, but it is backwards compatible down to 1.6. I've used reflection for the newer methods. When I try to run it on an emulator in Eclipse, it only lists my 2.2 AVDs. I need to test on 1.6 to ensure compatibility. I've tried building with Android 2.2 and with Google APIs 2.2 with no luck. (what's the difference, anyway?) I have set <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" targetSDK="8"/> in my manifest. I also tried targetSDK="4".

Android :: How To Get Current Battery Level Of Device?

Feb 18, 2009

Is there a way to get the current battery status of the device (battery level and if the battery is currently charging). The only way I found so far is by using a Broadcast receiver to "listen" for battery status changes. Is there a way to get the battery status using a direct API call? I my case, I would like to check if the battery has sufficient charge (or is being currently charged) before starting the download of some (potentially large) files.

General :: API Level Differences - App Works In Level 10 But Not In Level 7?

Jul 2, 2012

I'm having trouble developing an app, while it works in API level 10, it does not in API level 7. I wondery why and I've been looking for a site that summarizes the differences, or the new features from one API level to another and cannot find it.

09-04 04:24:21.485: E/AndroidRuntime(6834): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception
09-04 04:24:21.510: E/AndroidRuntime(6834): java.lang.VerifyError: [code]....

There seems to be a problem with an uncaught exception and reflection, although....why does it work on API level 10?

Android :: App Using 2.x APIs That Will Also Run On 1.x

Apr 12, 2010

I'm working on an Android app in which I would like to use multi-touch. However, I do not want to completely leave out those still running a 1.x OS phone. How do you program the app so that you can use the 2.x multi-touch APIs (or any other higher level API for that matter) and still allow it to gracefully degrade on 1.x systems. If you create a project in Eclipse for 1.x can you even still access the 2.x APIs?
Basically I want it to show up in the marketplace and work on all 1.6 and higher phones and just allow access to the higher level functionality if available.

Also, if anyone can point me to any data on the number of 1.x devices vs. 2.x devices in use.

Android :: How To Use StartMethodTracing APIs?

May 20, 2010

I have recently started working on an app which has both Java and native components. I am trying to generate trace information for both components using Debug.startMethodTracing("myapp") and Debug.startNativeTracing() alternately.

However, both are behaving unexpectedly.

When I use Debug.startMethodTracing("myapp"), I can see a file /sdcard/myapp.trace being created but it is always empty no matter how long I run my app. When I use Debug.startNativeTracing() and start the emulator with the -trace <tracename> switch, I see a message saying "Trace started", but when I try to run my app, the
emulator crashes.

Android :: Working With Apis/Libraries

Oct 2, 2009

I'm building an app where I want to architect the app layer separately from the service layer (not android services). So I'll create a service interface(the apis) and then create a class(es) that implement that service interface. Inside the android application layer, I want to code to just that service interface. I think this is similar to how the google maps apis works. the api interface and stubs are in the framework, then each device actually provides the implementation. I don't need to go that far, but I am wondering how I package this up. One, where would I put these interfaces, so I can code to them in the app layer (like Activities). Second, how do I tell Android where the implementing classes are? I'm guessing this is somewhere in the manifest? For now I think I would probably just build the service implementation with the application source code, if that's easier. Eventually I'd like to break that out and drop it in as a 3rd-party jar.

Android :: Driving Directions Using Google Map APIs

Feb 19, 2009

I am developing maps application which has to support driving directions and route search and creation. But there is no API support in Android for this.

So i want to use google map APIs instead of Android APIs, Are there any APIs available for driving directions in google. If yes, What are those APIs, How can i use those APIs with Http request/response.

I read some where that earlier googlenav package was there in Android SDK, but it is now removed. May I know the reason for removal of this package, or When can i expect it to come back with fixed version of googlenav in Android? Looking forward to your reply.

Android :: REST Vs JSON APIs / Differences Between Them?

Nov 10, 2010

Wondering what the differences between REST and JSON APIs are, how you interface with them, and how to go about parsing the results. My goal is to build a small application for my android phone to tell me when the next train will get to the subway station by my house, using the developer API provided by the transit agency.

I'm learning C++ in university, but hope to go about this in Java. I'm sorry if this is more of a discussion question rather than a black and white answer question, but I can't find any information elsewhere.

Android :: Sdks - Google Apis Build Target For 1.5?

Sep 22, 2010

I'm configuring a new machine for Android development and moving my current project over. I did a fresh install of all the Android tools and SDKs, and under "build targets", the Google APIs' target supports Android 2.2. Of course I need 1.5 as the base build target. My project doesn't build when I select that because the Google Maps stuff from maps.jar isn't there. In fact, after I did my full install I can't find maps.jar anywhere on my new machine. Is this jar file still required for Google Maps integration, or is it history? I'm using Eclipse 3.5. I guess I'd presume there would be a "google apis" for Android 1.5 build target. I'm thinking my install must be hosed; but maybe it's my understanding.. :)

Android :: Google Data APIs Client Libraries

Jun 13, 2009

Has anyone had success using Google Data APIs Client Libraries. I can't seem to successfully use the GData Java client libraries in an Android app. I notice that there used to be some GData access classes in the Wireless packages that have been removed. Should I be using some map data classes in the com.google.android.maps classes I'm not seeing? I started to go down the path of accessing data through raw http calls, but it's a beating.

Android :: Developers Be Liable For Charges For Using Google APIs?

Nov 1, 2009

I've been reading the Terms of Service for the Google APIs, both Maps and AJAX APIs. I have questions regarding future consequences of using these APIs in mobile apps that get distributed, hopefully, to many thousands or millions of devices.

Both say that the services must be available for free, so I'm assuming that means you cannot charge a fee for an Android app that uses these services, unless you arrange something special with Google. Which appears to be Google Maps API Premier, an advanced service that uses a page-view-counter-based calculation to determine charges, and is not cheap. Which pretty much says you'd need to charge a subscription fee if you're going to charge at all. If you don't charge now and suddenly get hit with a bill from Google, your free app must remain free (according to Android Terms) so you're out of luck? I suppose it might be possible to include a Terms of Service with the application that says the user assumes all responsibility for any charges related to use of the Google APIs, but that doesn't seem likely to succeed. I think it would be difficult to manage. I also suppose that you could ask Google to block requests that use your API key until you can get a new version out with a fee attached.

Google also says they could charge for the use of the API in the future. This is stated specifically in the AJAX APIs doc, and indirectly in the Maps doc (Google can change the terms at any time). Since the API key that is used when calling APIs belongs to the Android developer, that tells me we could potentially be on the hook for Google charges. The Terms say that we can decide to stop using the APIs. Which is fairly easy when you're running a web site, much different when your application is deployed to thousands or millions of devices. Especially if you've distributed the application for free, and with an expiration date as required of later than October 22, 2033.

I'm nervous now about using Google APIs in Android apps and wondered if anyone else has thought about this. Should Google APIs be avoided? At least until developers have some legal protection?
