I've looked at getRelativeTimeSpanString() but 1) it calculates from now & 2) it appends a prefix/suffix.
Is there an easier way to do this, other than creating a custom datediff method and chopping all of that together with conditions myself?

I am a student in the process a building an Android app that can post a GPS track into a Rails application. I would like to do things the "Rails" way and take advantage of the REST. My rails application basically has 3 models at this point: users, tracks, and points. A user has_many tracks and a track has_many points. A track also has a total distance. Points have a latitude and longitude. I have successfully been able to create an empty track with:
curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' -d '<track><distance>100</distance></track>' http://localhost:3000/users/1/tracks
That is pretty cool. I am really impressed that rails do this. Just to see what would happen I tried the following:
curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/xml -d '<track><distance>100</distance><points><point><lat>3</lat><lng>2</lng></point></points></track>' http://localhost:3000/users/1/tracks
Fail! The server spits back:
Processing TracksController#create (for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-04-14 00:03:25) [POST]
Parameters: {"track"=>{"points"=>{"point"=>{"lng"=>"2", "lat"=>"3"}}, "distance"=>"100"}, "user_id"=>"1"} User Load (0.6ms) SELECT * FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."id" = 1) ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch (Point(#-620976268) expected, got Array(#-607740138)): app/controllers/tracks_controller.rb:47:in 'create'
It seems my tracks_controller doesn't like or understand what it's getting from the params object in my tracks_controller.rb:
def create @track = @user.tracks.build(params[:track])
My xml might be wrong, but at least Rails seems to be expecting a Point from it. Is there anyway I can fix TracksController.create so that it will be able to parse xml of a track with nested multiple points? Or is there another way I should be doing this entirely?

I'm new to the forums and so far am loving the vast amount of stuff I'm learning from this site and what this phone can really do! I just received my bill from Verizon for May and compared it to my April bill. I went from using 52MB of data on my Omnia to 545MB of data on my Incredible! I'm so thankful for the unlimited data
What was your data usage before and after you got your Incredible?

I am trying to post data to the Blob Store on google's app engine, this code runs without throwing any exceptions, but on the blobstore end there is no log on the post request at all. The server side stuff works when i post using a form (albeit with mime data). I have allowed my android app to use internet. This is a stab in the dark but if any of you folks might have had an issue like this before perhaps the problem i am having might ring a bell

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a server application listening on port 5001 on an anroid dev phone. The client application running on my laptop tries to send data to the server application.
The client can successfully connect and send data to the server machine when the phone has wifi enabled. The command to do this is - iperf -c <ip address of wifi interface>
But when I enable the 3G connection and try to send data then it fails. iperf -c <ip address of the 3G interface>
I cannot even ping the <ip address of the 3G interface>. Is there any port blocking enforced in case of external 3G network connection. Can anyone please tell me how can I send data to the server application on 3G network. Is there any specific port on which the server application should be listening??
I have a broadcast receiver the looks at SMS, when it receives an SMS that is destined for my application it needs to send some data to an activity or start the activity if it is not running. How do I find out if the activity is running and send data to it if it is? I know I can use StartActivity and stuff the intent with the data I want to send to it but if I start the activity that is already running, another instance of it will be created (wont it?).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a Android gps application using locationmanager with locationlistener and I'm only testing with the emulator. This is my problem. - When sending only $GPGGA nmea sentences to emulator by telnet, everything works fine. - When sending only $GPRMC nmea sentences to emulator by telnet, the first location is recognized by locationmanager, the gps provider goes into status 2, next $GPRMC sentence is not recognized.
This happens not only with my application, the Google Maps application and also others show the same behavior: they get only the first $GPRMC location. When sending a $GPGGA sentence after the $GPRMC, the locationlistener gets control and location is shown.
Is there already functionality similar to the push registry or wireless messaging API in J2ME implemented in Android? Or at least plans to do so?I have been looking at this issue for a while, because in a corporate environment it is essential to be able to push information out, or trigger actions via SMS or other connections.I have successfully sent an SMS between emulator instances, and successfully received an SMS by using a BroadcastReceiver on another emulator instance. I have also been able to use SmsManager. sendDataMessage to send a data message to a port on another emulator instance, but in this case the BroadcastReceiver is never triggered. This seems to be the closest the API's get to what I'm looking for.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am little confused with the use of intents used for sending data to activity from service. In my application I have to have startactivity from the service and have to pass data ,so that activity can utilize the data while launching.For this i have written the following code Intent intent = new Intent(Service.this,Activity.class); intent.putExtra("data", data); intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); context.start Activity(); I assume that the data is passed to the activity and can be parsed on the oncreate function of the activity.Now the service running in the background has to pass data to the activity continously for UI updates.For this I have written the following codeIntent intent = new Intent(Service.this, Activity.class); intent.putExtra("Data", data); intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA); sendBroadcast(intent,null); (Do I need to broadcast the intent???) In activity I have done following things:- Implemented broadcast reciever:private BroadcastReceiver mBroadcastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { if (Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA.equals(intent.getAction())) { Bundle extra = intent.getExtras(); float Data[] = extra.getFloatArray("Data"); update(Data);

Is there a way to identify these apps?
I have a main class activity that does the task of sending control to other activities on click of a button. I am also starting a thread in the main class. This thread basically sets up a connection with the server and is active throughout the lifetime of the application.I have two functions in the thread class, send and receive data from server.Therefore, when the other activities need to send/receive data from server, they use those particular functions.First of all please let me know if what I am trying to do is fine as per the architecture of the operating system. If its fine, when I try to run the code, the app crashes and i see a NullPointerException and a RuntimeException in the DDMS log.Could some one please help me out in this or suggest a better way to implement the concept.Also, please be assured that, the other functionality of the code works perfectly fine.

My app has (say) MainActivity from which I want to launch a second activity, SecondActivity, within the same app, whilst I pass an integer parameter to SecondActivity. Now my problem is : how do I receive the Intent when SecondActivity gets started and recover the value of the integer parameter ? Which member function of.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am a bit new to Android. What I need to do is send data back and forth between an activity and a service locally. The information sent is sensitive and must not be able to be picked up by other apps. This excludes using broadcast and the onBind() function if I understand things correctly? So the activity needs to send some string parameters to the service. Also it somehow needs to tell the service which activity started it so the service can reply to the correct class since many different activities will use this service.
Once the service has fetched the information via a http request it is suppose to send that data (just a long string which will later be parsed) back to the activity that started it. How do I go about doing this? Using static variables/functions is not an option since again many actives will be using this service. Sure it would be possible to use a static array to hold the classes but that just seems ugly. It's only possible to send simple variables (not objects) via the intent? There must be a better way to do this.
