I have a Galaxy S5 with 4.4.2. I dont recall if this happened when I had my S4 but this is my issue. When I am in my car and connected to the cars bluetooth, whenever I want to speak to google to do a search or something it goes through the bluetooth of the car. This would be fine but sometimes it waits like 2-3 seconds until the bluetooth in car picks up and messes up my train of thought. I would like to make the voice search not use the bluetooth when connected.

Note: The built-in Search Manager custom suggestions functionality won't work for me because I need to customize the layout of the suggestions.
I am trying to automate some tasks using adb commands in java, but in order to confirm tasks are completed, I need some reply from the device to the PC controlling it. I thought about using the logcat, but since android is continuously writing on the log, there might be problems accessing it, and checking the correct message. Does anyone know about a (easy) way of messaging between android device and PC?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out a way to send touch events to the foreground activity. Essentially I want to write something that allows me to run it from the shell and just say "I touched this co-ordinate", so that I can automate some UI tasks for testing. Essentially what Monkey does, but application agnostic.
I think that android.view.MotionEvent holds the key, but I'm not sure how to run something without view so that I don't interfere with what is on the screen. Perhaps with a service, but I'm unclear how that would work.
We are currently working on an instrumentation test suite which runs on our build server, but while the tests pass on a dev machine using a normal Android emulator, the builds fail on the build server since there we only run a headless emulator with the -no-window flag.The failure occurs when trying to invoke the InstrumentationTestCase.sendKeys() method to programatically open the options menu.We also tried to let the instrumentation test app and the app under test share the same Linux user ID using android:sharedUserId and run in the same process (android:process -- we weren't sure if that was already the case), but still no luck. Does this mean it's currently impossible to run instrumentations which contain key events on a headless emulator, or are we missing something?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have finally - after days and days of agony - figured out that I need two forms of encryption for my Digital Signatures Project. The first will will be symmetric (AES) and will encrypt the license data and the second will be a asymmetric (RSA) an will encrypt the symmetric key. Can someone give me pointers on the best methods to use for Android.
For the public/private keys I am using: "RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding"(I head ECB is bad so what should I use?, what about the PKCS1Padding - shoudl I be using PKCS5Padding?)
For the symetric keys I will probably use: "AES/?/?" (What mode and padding should I use?)
The provider: "BC"
RSA Keysize: 1024 (I tried 2048 but it didn't work for some reason)
AES Keysize: ?
I've got a database. In its "tags" column, rows can have a combination of multiple values "A, B, C"--such that: row 1 has "A" row 2 has "A, C" row 3 has "B, A" and so on, in various permutations. I am trying to implement search using a managedQuery such that I can return a cursor that contains rows with one or more values in the query. For example, if the user enters "C, A" for a search, s/he should get all rows that have A, C, or A and C. I'm splitting the user query on the comma (",") character, and the final call is as follows (parameters replaced by actual values):
mActivity.managedQuery("content_uri", [id, title, tags], "title LIKE ? OR tags LIKE ?", [%A% OR %C%, %A% OR %C%], "title ASC")
Even though there are rows in the database that contain A, C, or A and C--the managedQuery returns nothing. Thankfully, if the query is for "A", or for "C", the appropriate rows with "A" or "C" or "A and C" are returned. It's just that a query with more than one search term returns nothing. What am I doing wrong here? My guess is that %A% OR %C% is incorrect logic, but why?
we are confused with designing interface file for android,we have made user interface with Absolute layout and used "dip" instead of "px" (for different screen size issue) ,but it looks like,Absolute layout has been depreciated,and developer.android, recommends not to use Absolute layout
So other option we have is to use
1.Linear layout
2.Frame layout
3.Table Layout
But we are unable to bring Combination of above layouts so,that we can make button/widgets to proper position we need
How do we make widgets to desired position of screen with above said layouts and making them compatible with different screen sizes we have in android devices
would like to get a generic answer about same,
Tools used are: DrawDroid
I have written a TestSuite to find out how to calculate the rotation angles from the data you get in SensorEventListener.onSensorChanged(). I really hope you can complete my solution to help people who will have the same problems like me. Here is the code, i think you will understand it after reading it. Feel free to change it, the main idea was to implement several methods to send the orientation angles to the opengl view or any other target which would need it. method 1 to 4 are working, they are directly sending the rotationMatrix to the OpenGl view. method 6 works now too, but i have no explanation why the rotation has to be done y x z.. all other methods are not working or buggy and i hope someone knows to get them working. i think the best method would be method 5 if it would work, because it would be the easiest to understand but i'm not sure how efficient it is. the complete code isn't optimized so i recommend to not use it as it is in your project. Code...

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen implementing search in my application, I'm including some search context info depending on the activity where search is invoked. In one of those, I'd like to implement type-to-search as well, but the standard method of adding search context info doesn't work in that case... the onSearchRequested() method in the activity is never called. Is there any way to include search context info in a type-to-search invocation, or am I stuck with only the Search key and menu option?
