How to achieve this ? Give me sample code for this
I created the following method for retrieving stored settings from the database:
public String getEntry(long rowIndex){
String value = "";
Cursor c = db.query(DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_NAME, VALUE}, KEY_NAME + "=" + rowIndex, null, null, null, null);
int columnIndex = c.getColumnIndex(VALUE);
int rowsCount = c.getCount();
if(rowsCount > 0){
String value = c.getString(columnIndex);
}
return value;
}
On debugging I can see cursor c contains two columns and one row but when it comes to line
String value = c.getString(columnIndex);
it throws the CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException although columnIndex = 1 which should point to a valid entry. Does anyone know what could be wrong here?
For changing from portrait to landscape mode i have done some changes in manifest.xml and included some code in test.java file
In manifest.xml i have included <activity_name android:configChanges="orientation"/>
i entered some data in portrait mode. but when i rotate my mobile from portrait to landscape the control goes to onConfigurationChanged() method.
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) { super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig); setContentView(R.layout.screen1_landscape);
}
I want to call a USSD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USSD) command and have the reply returned as a String. I can make the device automatically dial the USSD - like so
// String encodedHash = Uri.encode("#"); String ussd = "*" + encodedHash + "105" + encodedHash; startActivityForResult(new Intent("android.intent.action.CALL", Uri.parse("tel:" + ussd)), 1); //
This calls the USSD and the result is displayed in an alert menu generated by the OS dialer. There's no way that I can see to intercept the USSD reply, prevent the dialer displaying it, and then use the result as a String. Essentially, all I really want to do is (pseudo code) // String ussdReply = call("*#105#"); // I've tried creating an "onActivityResult" but it never receives anything from the startActivityForResult. So, does anyone know how I can use the reply within an application?
I have an AppWidget which provides a summary of some data stored and controlled by my main Application. (In a similar way to a Calendar AppWidget showing the next event from the main Calendar application). I want to know the best practice for retrieving the data to update my widget. I have followed the example, and I have extended AppWidgetProvider and have a working widget, onto which I can update. I would expect to read the data from my main application and then update it via my AppWidgetProvider's onUpdate() routine.
Now, is the best practice here for my separate main application to provide the data via a ContentProvider? I assume so, as my Appwidget is not part of the same application. Is it possible to access a ContentProvider inside my onUpdate() routine? Before writing my main application content provider I started to test out retrieving some available data like Contacts information, and showing say a contact name in my widget, to show I can extract data from an existing ContentProvider. When accessing the Contacts contentprovider, the examples talk about:
1) Activity.managedQuery(), but my AppWidget is not an activity. 2) ContentResolver.query(), but I can't work out how to get a valid ContentResolver so I can access the Contacts. getContentResolver() does not appear to be defined for AppWidgetProviders. Am I approaching this the correct way?
I'm kinda new to android programming so please bear with me. I'm having some problems with retrieving records from the db. Basically, all I want to do is to store latitudes and longitudes which GPS positioning functions outputs and display them in a list using ListActivity on different tab later on. This is how the code for my DBAdapter helper class looks like:
public class DBAdapter
{
public static final String KEY_ROWID = "_id";
public static final String KEY_LATITUDE = "latitude";
public static final String KEY_LONGITUDE = "longitude";
private static final String TAG = "DBAdapter";....................

I am trying to use OData4J to retrieve a list of Users from the StackOverflow OData service (onto an Android 2.1 device), but it isn't working.
public static Enumerable<OEntity> getUserInfo() {
ODataConsumer c = ODataConsumer.create("https://odata.sqlazurelabs.com/OData.svc/v0.1/rp1uiewita/StackOverflow/");
return c.getEntities("Users").execute();
I think it is unable to retrieve data from the URL. Any ideas why this would be? Is there anything wrong with my code?
I am making an application that asks the user for userid, appends the userid to a static HTTP link to retrieve the user's daily schedule info file that has a .ical (calendar) extension. I need to read the data from file, format in new UI and representing some useful data on an Android device. My query is can I access a static HTTP link behind the scenes? And when I use the same link on desktop browser, it asks user to save the file — how can I do this on a mobile? Do I need to read the data and save it somewhere or I can save the .ical file and read from it?

I saw that google includes org.json classes in the API but haven't tested them yet.
How are your experiences? What library/API should I use and why?
I have the following issue; a couple of months ago i had a Desire z (happy HTC One owner now) but it fell and it broke. Or atleast the phone itself/ screen does nothing. However i can hook the phone up to my pc and its get recognized and i can browse the phone with the command prompt.
My phone broke while i was on a trip in Thailand and unfortunately the info (email adresses from new friends) that i typed into google keep that night had not been synced yet...
I would very much like to get this info off of my phone and read it or transfer it to my new phone or something (reading it on the pc has my preference as my HTC One is not rooted).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI think this is the right place to look for some tips and stuff for android programming ahah. So I am completely new at all this java/android programming. My friend gave me the challenge to parse some json data as a listview. I was succesfully able to display the content as a textview however not everything appeared. Only the last few line of text showed up. He told me that by putting it as a listview everything should go well. Now setting up a listview isn't the same thing as setting up a textview. So my question is with all the code that I have how can I display the content as a listview.

I am currently trying to send some data from and Android application to a php server (both are controlled by me). There is alot of data collected on a form in the app, this is written to the database. This all works.
In my main code, firstly I create a JSONObject (I have cut it down here for this example):
JSONObject j = new JSONObject();
j.put("engineer", "me");
j.put("date", "today");
j.put("fuel", "full");
j.put("car", "mine");
j.put("distance", "miles");
Next I pass the object over for sending, and receive the response:
String url = "http://www.server.com/thisfile.php";................

I'm looking for an embeddable webserver for an android project I am working on. ijetty is to big for me, I'm just trying to serve some static content don't need an entire servlet container. Something like http://java.sun.com /javase /6/docs/jre/api/net/httpserver/spec/com/sun would be useful, but probably still overkill for what I need.
