Android :: Server Socket Error
May 19, 2010
I am attempting to open a ServerSocket on my Android device to receive network connections, but do not seem to recieve network traffic from them. Running netstat -an on the device shows it is listening on 0.0.0.0:1234, but my connections to telnet to <public ip of Android device>:1234 do not appear (and do not receive a SYN,ACK in response). How can I write an application which will open an accessible server socket? Is this possible? I am thinking that either the ISP (mobile carrier) may be blocking this incoming connection attempts or the Android OS is blocking them (host firewall)?

I am playing around a bit with peer-to-peer communication with android devices.I have written a basic program that creates a listening ServerSocket on each phone using the application. Using the application you can also connect to other devices that is listening, by connecting to the remote ServerSocket. Nothing strange about that.My problem is that it seems that the listening port is not open for connection on different devices. I can connect to my HTC Desire, works like a charm. But connecting to a HTC Hero I get timeout, same if I try to connect to the emulator. But connection FROM the emulator to the Desire and FROM the Hero to the Desire works like a charm. Whats up with this? No security apps is installed and both devices(and the emulator) is running 2.1.

I am writing an Android app that should exchange data to a server over Bluetooth, with the server side on a PC running Ubuntu, using the bluez library, in C (or C++).
My Android app fails (IOException) when I try to connect to my server socket on the PC.
Here is essentially what I in the java code (in Android, full eclipse project here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2968234/ThinBTClient.zip)
CODE:...........
This throws IOException after a timeout of 10seconds or so.
On the server side (in Ubuntu 8.10), I basically set up a Bluetooth server socket, along the lines described in the example bluez/sdp-register.c
Down below is my C++ program. To compile it do
g++ -I/usr/include/glib-2.0/ -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -o bt_server bt_server.cpp -lbluetooth
I can do the reverse succesfully, i.e. create a server socket in Android and connect from Linux, however this is not what I want to do!
I think either the problem has to do with my config of Ubuntu.
CODE:................

Using appbrain on my PC seems to work fine when I'm not logged in. When I do log in and try to click on an app I get this error message:
"Error: Server Error The server encountered an error and could not complete your request. If the problem persists, please report your problem and mention this error message and the query that caused it."
Anyone else have this issue when using Appbrain on their pc?
Well, It looks like I solved the problem. I just deleted my account and created it again and it's fixed (for now).

I have been trying to setup a Droid to Droid 3G connection. I can confirm that all works great in wifi mode. The Droid can make connection requests (Http, Telnet, raw sockets) in 3G, but I cannot get the Droid to accept a socket connection in 3G mode. I was told by Verizon that a special license may be needed to accept socket connection requests and they would send me some information. So far none has been received. If anyone knows how to program the Droid to accept socket connection requests over 3G, please respond. Also if anyone knows why this not allowed please respond.

So I have an android application that needs to connect to a socket server. That's simple enough if the socket server was running on my development machine. However the socket server is running on a server not only not on my own machine, but on a different subnet. How would I connect my emulator to the socket server? I understand how the port forwarding works to connect to the local machine, but I'm sort of confused on how I can redirect it across a subnet from my dev machine.

I have a simple client-server app on android. the android service communicates with the server via tcp sockets. the service sends a simple String to server which works. the server processes the string and sends back an object to the android service. the object implements the serializable interface. the object "leaves" the server successfully but at the point where the android service receives the object (socket.readObject()

I'm working on an Android app that requires both client and server certificate authentication. I have an SSLClient class that I created that works beautifully on regular desktop Java SE 6. I've moved it into my Android project and I'm getting the following error: "KeyStore JKS implementation not found".I've looked online a bit and it looks like there's a possibility that Java Keystores are not supported on Android (awesome!) but I have a feeling there's more to it than that because none of the sample code I've found resembles what I'm trying to do at all. Everything I found talks about using an http client rather than raw SSL sockets. I need SSL sockets for this application.

I was developing an app which need to open serversocket.
But, when i open one on poet 80, this throw a BindException :/ iven with the INTERNET permission. Open on other port work (ex: 8080).
Does this mean android not allow me to use this socket?

I am doing a project where I have too develop an application that listens for incoming events by a service. The device that has to listen too events is an Android phone with Android SDK 1.5 on it. Currently the services that call events only implement communication trough UDP or TCP sockets. I can solve my problem by setting up a ServerSocket, but i doubt that's the most power efficient way. This application will be running most of the time, with Wi-Fi on, and I'd like too reach an long battery duration. I've been looking for options on the internet for my question for a while but i couldn't get a real answer.What is the most efficient way too listen to incoming events? Should I make an ServerSocket? or what are my options?Are there any other implementations that are more power efficient?

I noticed that if the Android phone is listening on a ServerSocket on the 3G network, and is then put to sleep with the power button, it no longer listens for incoming connections. The incoming TCP connection does not wake up the phone. Is this there a way to enable waking up a sleeping phone on incoming Server Socket connections, the way that incoming data on a regular Socket does?

I am trying to setup at ServerSocket on my Android phone, and send a char or int or anything from my computer. The code on the phone creates a ServerSocket and then blocks whilst waiting for a connection(plus some more bits if the socket is created. But I'm not getting this point, so left that out!)Basically, the phone is getting to accept, and the computer is not connecting. The xx.xx.xx.xx is the public IP of the phone I obtain programatically (and it matches up with checking on whatismyip.com).I have set the INTERNET permission on the phone. I have also been able to do this in reverse (ServerSocket on pc, client on phone).

i am trying to get an android app to send tcp data to a server on my network. The server was written in c#. When i use the code below to transmit data, the server only receives a whole series of.
Socket socket = new Socket(host, port);
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(), true);
pw.print("test");
socket.close();

I have recently written a socket server in PHP that will be handling communication between an Android phone application and my PHP webserver. Due to the fact that Android doesn't natively support push style notifications we are going to be using our webserver as the middleware layer to handle our 'pushes'. The socket server is stable, runs well, and seems to scale nicely. While I would eventually like to re-write this in C I don't have the skill necessary to do that right now so I am going to be staying in PHP for at least a short while. As of this moment our Android emulator is able to communicate through the server, get pushes, etc. so that part is all covered.
My concern is that, right now, anyone can open a socket to my server and will be given a client connection. While we won't be passing sensitive data back and forth I don't want to allow just anyone to connect over and receive broadcast information, eat up my resources, and clog my server in general. The question is, how do I secure a server like this? Let's assume that I am running on port 25,000--can I set up some sort of SSL layer on that port and expect devices like the Android to be able to communicate over that port without any special protocols or jumping through hoops? I have considered asking the connecting clients to authenticate their user against our user database before being given a client connection, but that would require the passing of credentials in plain text over the network which I am not about to do.
I am rather new to straight TCP communication from PHP and feel like I might just be missing something simple that allows for authentication on this level.
Additional information: If I am able to get a valid username and password securely I would be using MySQL to validate the user and then accept/reject their connection based on the results of the query.

We have a simple client server architecture between our mobile device and our server both written in Java. An extremely simple ServerSocket and Socket implementation. However one problem is that when the client terminates abruptly (without closing the socket properly) the server does not know that it is disconnected. Furthermore, the server can continue to write to this socket without getting any exceptions. Why? According to documentation Java sockets should throw exceptions if you try to write to a socket that is not reachable on the other end!

Essentially Im trying to get many many java clients connect to a socket on my ColdFusion server (Using the Socket Gateway). However before i even start to code this, Im a little confused about sockets and their performance. First of all, are sockets meant for many(1000+) clients connecting to one socket (say port 2202) on one server? How is the performance if all there waiting for is basically a ping, or something such that when these clients receive this "ping" they can go get some new data.

I'm a developper based in the US that recently released a pay-for app in the market called "AmBu". Googlecheckout is the merchant account I am using (the only one approved by the market it seems).
Two customers were able to purchase my app from a foreign country (Europe).
However, when I'm trying to buy my own application from the US (using my G1 phone) using a valid debit or credit card number, I consistantly get a "server error" during the purchase process. I suspect I'm not the only one and I'm losing customers.
What is the right structure at google to help resolve this ? In the market blogs, I've seen few posts of people facing the same issue but nothing to help resolve this was detailed.

I have an updated apk - tested successfully on various devices and simulator instances - with the following manifest:
CODE:..............
When I post to Android Marketplace as an upgrade to my existing 1.0 app, I get the aforementioned ambiguous message: "The server could not process your apk. Try again."
I just tried to upload the same file again. Now I get a new message:
The new apk's versionCode (2) in AndroidManifest.xml must be higher than the old apk's versionCode (2). The server could not process your apk. Try again.
So Marketplace did get my upgraded apk after all? (The very first accepted apk's versionCode was 1, so this update was of course bumped to 2.) Confused ...
Bumping it up to 3 and trying again. Surprise surprise, I get the original "could not process" error all over again. Going in circles.
If I exit and re-enter the Marketplace page, now it shows that the app has been uploaded! Except there's no app icon. Curiouser and curiouser ... and this is all happening with a cache-cleared (standards-friendly) browser to boot.

Every time I go to purchase an app from the market. I fill in all my info in google checkout (name, credit card, address, etc.) when I hit the save button it gives me an error message that says it can't connect to the server.
I live in the US, I have 5 bars of service and 3G, even wifi going. I have tried it everyday for the past week and I keep getting the same error when I try to save.

I found a problem with the Market yesterday:
Upload a new APK version 134 After the upload finishes, cancels the upload Upload a new APK (different than the last uploaded file, but still version 134) Publish
10 minutes later I found my app was missing from the Market. I went to Developer Console and it asked me to agree to new license agreements, so I did. At this point, my app's status is again visible from the Market. I felt satisfied and went to sleep.
Next morning I got a flood of e-mails saying that my app shows "Download Error" in Market, and no one is able to install or update. I tried myself and say "404" error in logcat. Apparently the APK has been lost by Google server.
I uploaded a new version (just rebuilt and bumped version to 135), and I verified that the app can be downloaded again.
I guess the moral of this story is to always verify that you app can be downloaded after uploading ....

I want to use HttpPost over https/ssl. I get 'Not trusted server certificate' error. I've found a lot of posts, seems that many people have similar problems and I've found two suggestions: 1) Change server's certificate. Current certificate is self-signed as localhost.localdomain. Unfortunetly it's not my server and I cannot change the certificate. 2) Use HttpsUrlConnection instead of HttpClient. But I cannot use it because sometimes (when response's code is 401 or 403) I got IOException during getting response code or reading inputstream.
So I've found 3rd solution - use httpclient, when system throws excetpion 'not trusted server certificate' than display warning, inform user that certificate is not trusted and ask if he wants to add this one to the keystore (webbrowser works this way). But I've no idea how to get certificate from the server and add to keystore.
