How to start/bind a service from a test case. I tried using the ServiceTestCase and somehow I am getting the context as null and the test is not launching/starting the service.

Please show me how to bind to a Service from another Service on Android.
If you have an image to show how to do.
is it possible somehow to bind to private system services? What I want to do is listen to the activitymanagerservice and be notified when other activites are started. I tried implementing the IActivityController.aidl from the Sourcecode. It has methods like activityStarting and activityResuming but this didn't really work. (I used the idea from here: http://blog.codetastrophe.com/2008/12/accessing-hidden-system-service... , problem is there is no proper private field one could use at least c.getDeclaredFields() doesn't return anything useful from the activity manager)
Any ideas how I can get notified of things going on in the Activity Manager without having to do a getRunningTasks all the time? Because this is the only workaround I came up with but it slows down the phone.

i get an error message like 09-30 20:08:24.733: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(949): Caused by: android.content.ReceiverCallNotAllowedException: IntentReceiver components are not allowed to bind to services 09-30 20:08:24.733: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(949): at android.app.ReceiverRestrictedContext.bindService (ApplicationContext.java:136) so i guess you can't bind to a service in an AppWidgetProvider - although you can start the service just fine?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android development and am working on a small test project. I have a service, which communicates with an SQLite3 database, and two activities. A main activity which fetches database information via the service and displays it and a second activity which allows me to add data to the database via the service.
Currently, I have a singleton class which implements the ServiceConnection interface and I'm binding this to the service in the the main activity using the bindService function. Because it's a singleton, I can then use this service connection in both the main activity and second activity to work with the database and it all seems to work quite well.
However, I'm all the time aware that the service connection is bound to the main activity and I'm wondering if this is the wrong/bad way to do it? Would I be best off having two service connections, one in each activity, and binding each to the service?
I have coded this service, that computes stuff and i want other applications to be able to bind this service, i.e. i want to enable other programmers to communicate with this service. problem is, this has to work without these other programmers to get access to the source code. just the (installed) apk with the remote service is given (and of course a detailed description of the service' interface)...problem is, eclipse keeps braggin' about that the packages of the service are not available in source code...

I can start the MsfRpcd ( the metasploit daemon ) from a su shell an make it bind to the 127.0.0.1 address.
I can connect to the server using busybox netcat ( no Java though here ).
I can't connect to 127.0.0.1 from the android app! i got ECONNREFUSED.
After a bit of google i understood that JavaVM have a separate network and it filter out my connection to localhost/127.0.0.1.
how can i connect to a service bind to 127.0.0.1 on my phone from an android app?
I gave a quick look at iptables -L output, maybe i can make some hack there, but probably i will break the JavaVM network.
Binding on wifi ip is not an answer.
A new question about android and services. Currently I'm developing a App that should send images to a server. It should also be possible to send more images parallel. I made a service that creates for every image a new image. The activity can bind to that service and gather information about the progress. I want to show the current status for every image in a notification (and when the user clicks a notification, an activity with the progress for that image should be shown). But I get several problems with that approach. There are errors with binding, the notification pending event starts the activity completely new, so I lose information about currently sending images and so on. How I could design in a appropriate way.

But there is no documents about it.
Does anyone can tell me:
How to build cts? Is there a standard procedure? How to run cts? How to add customized test case?
Here, share my experience. After repo sync all source, you can't directly run "make" to build all source.
You will get some errors.
Now, I'am trying to first build android source without cts, and then build cts alone.
Also, here are some reference for run cts:

I do the following steps:
1.build android source without cts (move cts out of the $SDK_ROOT).
2.build cts (move cts back).

I am adding an android testcase for the UI. I have been following the tuto for the Spinner Test.Unfortunately I have a nullpointerexception on a object medtSalePercent.setText("10"); which has been initialised.
Code:
import jle.base.WorkActivity;
import android.test.ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

There is no exception on medtPriceValue.setText("50");.but there is one on the screen for medtSalePercent.setText("10");
When implementing an ActivityInstrumentationTestCase, how do you start the activity with a Bundle of saved state?

After following some instructions on Diego Torres blog I am able to test my classes using the regular Eclipse JUnit test-runner, however I also want to be able to run my unit tests from within the emulated android environment. For now this should make no real difference since the classes I am working on do very basic numerical or networking tasks, but obviously anything which involves the UI or Android API specific functions can only ever be tested on the emulator.
I set up a new run configuration of type AndroidJUnitTest wich uses the ndroid.test.InstrumentationTestRunner, however whenever I fire up the test I get the following error in the console:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wish to know how in java I should receive these parameters. I do know how to deliver parameters via adb shell am start command but I still have a problem to get them in java (android) code.
My class extends InstrumentationTestCase and not Activity class!
So I cannot perform: this.getIntent().
I anderstand that I need to create intent doing: Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.someAction);
Can you help me to find out what action should I use here.
I also read that there are secondary attributes: category, type, component, extras. I know that I also need to update the manifest file accordingly. Sorry for so many q/a.
I wrote a service and I registered BroadcastReceiver in it. In the onReceive () method of BroadcastReceiver catagory,I just wrote Intent.ACTION_TIME_TICK.equals(intent.getAction()) to receive the systenm time every minute and deal with everything that I should do in it every minute.But i found a problem that when the mobile phone screen was locked and was completely black,my service seems to be sleep and does not work,and when I light up the screen(it is still in locked condition),the system will automatically run my service.I do not know the reason,I guess if it is because my service is not the system-level service? When the mobile screen is black,Andraid system will hibernate the sevice which is not the system-level service,so if this,I should add my service to system service,but I know how to use android.permission.ADD_SYSTEM_SERVICE? If you can,please send me a example about how to add own service to system-level service.This problem has been troubled me for two weeks.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo by now most people are aware of the IQTest Hack. If not, it's a common hack. Usually you get it bc you clicked on a link you shouldn't have. Suddenly your contacts all start receiving a message from "you" I use eBuddy on my HTC Android. It is the ONLY way that I have logged into Yahoo IM in more than 5 years. I rarely even log on. And I have NEVER clicked on any link within that program (therefore within yahoo IM) And yet somehow, ALL of my contacts were contacted by "me" this morning with a similar conversation (only this jerk hacker said I'd give them $20 if they could beat me) So, what does that mean? I've already changed my yahoo password. But if I've never clicked on a link to give them access, how did they get in in the first place? Did they hack my phone? My Yahoo account? Or eBuddy? Secondly, I've been reading that when you are the victim of this hack, it's not just the messenger client that is affected, but your PC as well and that you should at least change your password AND run anti-Malware but this is my PHONE. Could a hacker have actually hacked into my cell phone? How can I tell? What do I do? I have TONS of private info stored on my phone so I'm stressing here.
