I'm conceptualizing an app that would *ideally* service as dashboard admin of the users SD Card. Is it possible to create a utility app that would be act as a file browser/manager for all the media on an SD Card? does this app already exist? In the event this is possible. I'm interested in sourcing a freelance developer help that can make this happen.

I am using the ES File Explorer on my HTC One M8, but it doesn't allow me to copy pictures on my SD card. Root Explorer also not. Is it because of Kitkat? Are there any other file browsers that allow copying stuff to the SD card?
View 6 Replies View RelatedYesterday I tried to install a custom ROM on my device (HTC Evo 3D GSM Europe) for the first time and it took close to 12 hours to get it from ICS 4.0.4 to ICS 4.0.3 (when my intention was actually JB 4.2). Let's just say that forgot to backup his Shipped ROM, then installed JB, was incompatible with the boot loader, tried desperately to find a compatible shipped RUU that worked with the CID, spent countless hours searching in xda-developers and then finally settled for a custom ICS ROM until some time in the future.
Now on to my problem. Prior to my Factory Reset, I had moved all applications to the SD card. A simple look-over in the file system indicates all the data is still there, but reinstalling the applications and even moving them back to the SD card doesn't seem to give them access to the prior data (saved games, stored profiles, lists and anything else I might have done). It's as if the app has been installed for the first time.
Is there any way to "link" the data back to the apps (after yesterday's endeavor I ended up with a rooted phone, at least)?
This is my first Android device and my second SE phone.I have a question.
When i put application in the ''others'' folder of memory card,how do it access it on phone.
I want to add a big feature to an application i am developping, but as this feature interest few people and is quite independant from the main part, I would like to put that in a seperate "plugin" application.Does anyone knows any design patterns, snippets, "reference" examples about such design?In particular that separate plugin application should be able to access some tables in the main application DB. Is it possible to do that without broadcast receiver? - the main application uses a TabActivity: is it possible that a the tabactivity instanciates an Intent Activity that is part of the plugin? - does the plugin can access main application preferences (not sure this would be necessary, but better to anticipate the question!) is it possible from the plugin to access main applications ressources?At least the 2 first points are mandatory for me.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have developed an application and want to sign it. After signing the application when I try to Align the final package with zipalign. But there's no file called zipalign in tools directory. Can someone guide me regarding this?
Moreover, after signing the application when I try to install the application it gave me "com.satloc signatures do not match the previously installed version; ignoring!". To remove this error I tried -wipe_data. After doing this I again tried to load the application with adb install SatLoc.apk but it again gave me an error this time it
DDM dispatch reg wait timeout Can't dispatch DDM chunk 52454151: no handler defined Can't dispatch DDM chunk 48454c4f: no handler defined pkg: /data/local/tmp/SatLoc.apk Failure [-12]
What is this and how to remove this? I want to load the signed application in emulator. Is zipalign necessay for this purpose? If yes then from where can I get zipalign utility.
I have a little idea of the Utility Classes with a slight doubt on demand.
If I use a Utility class in my Application than to use that class in my main Activity do I have to create the object of that class or I can directly Import that class in my main activity?
In the nutshell, all I want to be clear about is that basically how can I use the utility class in my Main Activity?
I've got a common use-case wherein a user selects one item out of many (say, on a spinner or autocomplete list), then enters the data. For example, let's say the user selects a country. Ultimately, the data I want is the country code, not the country name; but the users will want to select based on name, not code. To put it another way, user's will select "United States", but I ultimately want that to translate into "US".
There are a lot of countries. Is there an easy way to setup a mapping in Android to hash from the name to the code? I've thought of a few solutions, none of them are quite satisfactory in my mind:
A database containing country/code, which I can query on. Setting up all countries as strings in strings.xml, then retrieving the resource by name. Creating a huge Map in code and using that. (This is the least satisfactory answer).
Find a lib which can provide url parsing/building functionality which can be used with Android platform. Character escaping is desired.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI juts want to know how can I access a certain data from my SD card. How can I browse SD card contents? For example, from my application, I want to open a pdf file from SD card, how am I going to do this? I tried to write this code but it doesn't seem to work.
Uri uri = Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/"); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, uri); startActivity(intent);
Can an Activity still have read/write access to an SD card after it has been mounted to USB storage (connecting USB and selecting Mount from the resulting notification screen). In other words, does mounting the SD card lock out system access until USB is disconnected. I need to create a live channel between an application and an external USB device and I'm running out of options.

I set up the USB driver on my Windows laptop and connected my Droid X to the USB port. Windows XP can see the Droid just fine in Windows Explorer as a removable USB device, but the DDMS utility shows no devices. Running "adb devices" in a DOS window lists no devices either. Yes, the java.exe location has been added to my PATH. Yes, the Droid is set to allow USB debugging. So why can't DDMS see my phone?

View 7 Replies View RelatedSometimes I need to provide a Context object to call specific functions, such as
Intent intent = new Intent(context, MyClass.class);
in order to start a service
context.startService(intent);
Or, provide a Context object to do a query
Cursor cursor = context.managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
If this is done in a UI class which extends Activity, that's fine.
However, If I want to create my own utility class (a singleton) that doesn't extend anything and call these functions, I don't have necessary Context object. Now my workaround is to pass an activity reference while initializing the utility class and have that reference to call those functions. I'm wondering what's the correct way to do that. It should not be reasonable to have every class to extends Context so that it can call those functions.

Following the big guide and I am at the nanroid backup stage in the recovery utility. I've got
Android system recovery utility
Use trackball to highlight, click to select.
Options:
Reboot system now [home+back]
Apply sdcard:update.zip [alt+s]
Wipe data/factory reset [alt+w]
Then at the bottom it says
E: Cant open /cache/recovery/command
Thats the full screen, nothing about backup/restore
It would work something like this
someUtility.replace ("Hello, my name is {1}. What is your {2}?", "Mark", "name");
