Android :: Adding Contacts Using ContactsContract In Batch
Apr 21, 2010adding new contacts in address book and apply them in batch by using new ContactsContract API. I could not find a proper tutorial on this. I am able to add a single contact. But batch update fails with Unknown contacts being added. Currently I am looping through while loop while collecting info. of users to write, store it in the ArrayList and applying and ContentProviderResult[] result = getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, op_list); But only one contact is updated with name and other are updated as unknown contacts. Please help with a sample code which adds the fields like name,nickname,mobile,title,email,skype id,work-country etc.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: ContactsContract - Contact Missing Constants From API?
Sep 30, 2010I've been using the ContactsContract api for some time now and I've come across two "columns" listed in the API page for ContactsContract.Contacts that do not appear to actually be assessable.
CODE:.....
By my reading of the API these two values would seem to connect to the Structured Name (in DATA) used to construct the display name for the given contact. Having access to this directly from the contact table would be incredibly useful to me at the moment, but as far as I can tell they are not actually in the working api (I've tested against both 2.1 and 2.2).
The associated constants do not exist in the Contacts object, and attempting to access the fields directly (by using the lower case string versions I've seen in code dumps online) turns up with an sql error -- invalid column, as you might expect.
Has anyone had any better luck with accessing these? Are these actually in the API?
I did some more checking and here's some related values from RawContacts that are listed on the API but appear to not actually be in it: DISPLAY_NAME_ALTERNATIVE, DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY, DISPLAY_NAME_SOURCE, PHONETIC_NAME, PHONETIC_NAME_STYLE, SORT_KEY_ALTERNATIVE, and SORT_KEY_PRIMARY.
All of these appear to be features not yet in the API that are mistakenly not filtered out when the javadoc was released. If other folks are unable to access these features as well it might be worth filing a bug report over.

Android :: ContactsContract - RawContacts Two Entry Get Inserted For Single Contact
Jul 26, 2010Need some info on ContactsContract.RawContacts<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContr...> :
A row in the ContactsContract.RawContacts<[url] represents a set of data describing a person and associated with a single account (for example, one of the user's Gmail accounts).

In this class in compare function checking accountType which is getting null. Wanted to know with which raw contact this comparison is happening ? and Why it is getting crashed ?

Android :: Simple Animation With 2 Images
Dec 16, 2009I try to write an simple animation by using a handler.However whatever I try it does not function asynch which causes only the last image in the sequence being displayed.
CODE:...........
However it seems that all painting is done after the handler is completely done, meaning that the second image is shown and not the first.
I also tried the message handler implementation from the Snake sample but also here not with the expected result.
Can anyone give me an idea to show an image for a short definable period and switch back to the original image?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: How To Compare Two Simple Images?
Jul 21, 2009I'll get straight to the point. Please note that I haven't code anything in this project just yet. This is only an idea. In human language, my goal is to: 1. Take a picture of a blank white A4 paper. 2. Verify (by code) that the picture is "White". (this's why I include 'simple' in the topic) I mean, the program should be able to tell if the user just took the picture of "white" paper and not any other colors. For the code... I can guess that the actual process should be: 1. Use Camera API to take a picture. // this step should be easy 2. Convert it to Bitmap. // this step should also be easy 3. Verify that it is "White". //*** now I need some help here. How can I do step 3? I look up the docs and found this is the Bitmap class: getPixels (int[] pixels, int offset, int stride, int x, int y, int width, int height) I can use this and compare the data pixel-by-pixel but it seems expensive. Could anyone recommend me a more proper way(if there is) to do this please?

to sleep for 5 seconds. I have a program that continues scanning wifi until it finds a certain router then plays a tune once found. All works fine, but it scans in 1.6 EXTREMELY fast, where as on 2.0 it scans about once per second. I also made a stop button that does:

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Simple LinearLayout And Fill_parent?
Dec 24, 2009I'm sure I am missing something simple...
Background:
I am new to android and UI design, and I just wanted to play around with layouts. Right now I want to stack a checkbox on top of text label. I am using the following xml layout which works fine:
CODE:................
My Tests (just to get a feel for how things works):
Scenario 1) When I set the CheckBox's layout_height to "fill_parent", the CheckBox takes up the whole screen and is aligned center (i.e. - the TextView disappears).
Scenario 2) If I instead set the TextView's layout_height to "fill_parent", the CheckBox does NOT disappear. In fact, nothing disappears, and the layout looks the same as the above xml where everything is pushed to the top-left.
The Question (and comments): How come Scenario 1 works the way it works?
This behavior seems inconsistent to me. I thought that fill_parent is only supposed to let the element fill up whatever space is available in the parent. So to me, it seems that the TextView should get whatever space it needs (since it is wrap_content), but the CheckBox should take up the rest of the space (so the TextView would be forced to the bottom of the screen, but not invisible). In other words... Scenario 2 makes sense to me, but scenario 1 does not.
