View 14 RepliesIs it possible to change prompt text that says "place the barcode inside the viewfinder..." when launching Barcode scanner (zxing) via intent (Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN")) ?
I want to have prompt in my language, how should i do that?
When I start the standard radio app, it keeps scanning. in the same time it starts sending text messages that could not send previosly. during al that it also calls a contact for a second. and then calls again and again and again. it all stops when i stop the radio.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some reference data in a text file (~5MB) that I want to use with might android application.The file is of the format:
1|a|This is line 1a
1|b|This is line 1b
2|a|This is line 2a
2|b|This is line 2b
2|c|This is line 2c
What I want to know is the most efficient way (less memory, fast, size etc.) to use this file within my application.
a.) Should I save the file as a raw resource and open and read the whole file whenever I need a certain line.
b.) Should I convert the file to XML and use XPath to query the file when ever I need to look up a value
<!--sample XML -->
<data>
<line number="1">
<entry name="a">This is line 1 a</entry>
</line>
</data>
c.) Should I just copy & paste the whole file as a static string array in the application and use that.
[EDIT] I will also need to search this file and jump to arbitrary keywords e.g. "line 1a".

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a text widget that can access a text file that is located on my phone or dropbox and display the contents of the file. It should always update itself as soon as there is a change in the text file. Does an app like this exist and where can I find it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a question concerning threads, handlers, loopers, etc. in android: In my application i have to take pictures from the camera preview (not pictures from the camera but rather just a preview frame) every time when the camera gets autofocus. So i want to implement some kind of "scanner". The app continues requesting autofocus and preview frames until the app detects a valid barcode in the picture. To achieve a continuous scanning process the app schould repeatedly request autofocus of the camera. At the moment when the camera got autofocus the next autofocus request should be fired immediately. Do you have any tips for implementig this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been looking at books scanning apps - you know, the ones that let you scan the barcodes on books you own and then identify the book and enter it into a database to help in keeping track and to avoid purchasing duplicates. Ideally, this information should be sortable using various keys. The bizarre thing is that after trying two or three, I haven't yet found one that will sort by author's last name! Honestly, who would want to sort by author's first name? (Is whatever is wrong with the People app catching or something? )

I'm using PDF Viewer and every time I want to open a PDF file, it spends a while scanning the phone for PDFs - time-consuming when I have a collection of several hundred on it.
Alright, so I'm trying to write a program for Android for a project for school, I figured out how to use Intents to scan, but once I find a product, how do I get that info into my app? For example, say I'm getting info from upcdatabase.com, I would just add the barcode number to the end of the url, but then how to I draw that data in? The same with Google search, how would I draw the data and the image of the item into the app?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am creating an application for the android, and would like it to be able to read a text file via anonymous FTP. I've tried URLConnection, but it doesn't seam to be working. After some Google searching it appears that URLConnection doesn't always work with some FTP servers. All of the java FTP connection libraries I've found require you to download the file to a local location before reading it. However I would like to have the same functionality as URLConnection in that I can just use the following similar code...

I am on my 3rd Evo and this one was perfect except that the 4g doesn't work, it simply keeps scanning. My previous two evos worked instantaneous. I was on the phone with a technician for an hour and still no luck. Anyone else experience this issue?
I've done everything from factory reset, updating profile, turning off phone, etc. Anyone in chicago 4g working fine?
I would be an intermediate level Java programmer (more of a hobbyist). I want to create an app for android that counts stats during a football game. This is roughly the functionality:
1.User presses buttons representing each type of stat e.g. #1 for score, #2 for lost possession of ball etc. (ideally it would be on a touchscreen phone and the user could use a stylus to touch buttons on the screen -by the way, would I have to program differently for a touchscreen? or is that a hardware thing?)
2. Each time a number is pressed, it's written to a text file on the phone or into a database (sqllite or whatever).
3. The text file can then be sent in a message to another android enabled phone.
Is it possible to test the existence of this text file on the android emulator? Is all this possible without being an advance Java programmer? Any guidance would be welcome and I realize this is a broad definition of the program.
where I can find more information about how to parse a text file in Java and extracting a particular String or reg ex out of It.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy program contains a file with the name "size.text", which contains just a word "15". If a user choose a value from a spinner,say 17, then the chosen value should be stored in the file and replace "15". I have added the permission to the program <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></uses-permission> But somehow i can not make the chosen value be written to the file. Here is my code...
