Android :: Stop Application Catch
May 25, 2010
I have five screen in my application. While in performing one action in fifth screen I encountered with Stop Application message. On which, I am getting 3 times "Stop Application" msg box, which covers 3 previous screen and comes back to the first screen. I understand I must have encountered with Error may be IndexOutOfBoundException which I have not addressed it in my code. I was wondering why it asks for extra 3 times "Stop Application" system message. It is fine to display an "Stop Application" system message if I encountered an error in any screen it should stop that particular screen and should come to the next screen on. How can I trap/catch such incidents not to occur in the consecutive screen. If the above description is not clear at any place please let me know that I be more clear to you.

Is it possible to write service that can catch any user's click on the touch screen and read text of the click no matter what application currently is active?
For example user click on browser or any other application and that service will know what word is written in the location of the screen.

I have an issue with identifying return to application after it was left using Home click. The main purpose of this is to define when do I have to display to user Type Password dialog. So, let's imaging such workflow, User works in application and decides to see what's the weather tomorrow. The User clicks Home button and is transfered to desktop. Now he goes back to My application. At this point we have to verify that our User is still the right one User by proposing him to type password. How can I identify this condition here? (returning after leaving by Home click)

I installed handcent and really really like it but how do I stop the default messaging app from popping up with alerts for new texts. It keeps popping up on the top bar whenever I get a text from anyone even after accessing that text in Handcent. It's not that big a deal but I need to go into my messaging app and view it to get rid of that notification. Is there a way to stop the notifications for the messaging app? Thank you.

I have an application with many forms implemented as separate activities. The form variables are dynamically built based on a database, and there are a ton of variables in the C++ side of the application (accessed via JNI). I don't see how saving out all of this data to persistent storage each time the onPause() or the onSaveInstanceState() of one of these many activities goes into the background is a smart use of processor time. And I don't see how even if I save the local variables for each activity during that time I'd be able to restore a single activity within the context of all the others.
I have set up a service that auto saves the files when I detect that the app has gone into the background. (I set a time stamp when onPause() is called in any activity and then clear the time stamp when onResume() is called on any other activity. If the time elapsed is more than a few seconds, I know I'm not the top activity any longer and the service saves the files).
What I'd like to do is continue on as normal unless the OS kills one of my activities. Since we don't always get notified of this, I thought it would be nice if there were a way to tell the OS that I'd rather you kill the whole app than just one activity.

I have a timer thread setup to play a loop using soundpool, but for some reason I cannot get _soundPool.stop(_playbackTimer); to stop the loop. even if I exit the application the loop keeps running. I have to physically power off the phone to get it to stop. am I missing something here? Does anyone have any experience with this? I have searched with no resolution. below is a snippet.
if(timeLeft>0 && timeLeft<20 && ticking == false){ _soundPool.play(_playbackTimer, 0.3f, 0.3f, 0, -1, 1); ticking=true; }
if(timeLeft==0 || timeLeft>20){ _soundPool.stop(_playbackTimer); ticking=false; }

I have an application that consist of several Activities. When the application starts, some alarms are scheduled using AlarmManager and some services are started:
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
a.setInexactRepeating(...)....
I would like to know any way to guarantee every service is stopped and every alarm is unscheduled when the user exits the application. The problem is that the user can leave the application from different Activities, and I don't like the idea of overriding the onDestroy method in every Activity. Is there any known Intent I can receive when the application ends? I've also found that an Android application can have a class that extends from Application, with a onTerminate method:
public class MyApplication extends Application {
@Override public void onTerminate() {
... } }
But the documentation is very clear: "never depend on this method being called; in many cases an unneeded application process will simply be killed by the kernel without executing any application code".

Is it possible to stop all started services when the user hits the Home Button? I use:
startService(new Intent(ClassName.this, ClassName2.class));
stopService(new Intent(ClassName.this, ClassName2.class));
This means I will have to somehow add the 'stopService()' for 7+ of my app classes
I've researched this topic and I think there's 'onTerminate' but still not sure how this should be implemented.

I'm developing an application on a hardware device that has a built-in hardware keyboard that does not slide out so is always visible (like a blackberry).But I don't know where to put this code to hide the soft keyboard in all places where it might possibly appear in my Activity. I have tried adding the code to Activity.onUserInteraction to no avail. It seems the keyboard appears after the onUserInteraction executes.

I was just wondering if there was any setting that would allow me to use the HTC Email Widget (with my G mail account) without receiving two copies of the same email (one through G mail, and one through HTC mail)? It's a little annoying having to delete double-copies of the same email each morning. I stopped using the HTC Email application completely, but there's no widget for G mail (which I prefer to the HTC application).

If it's possible how about removing every stop application that you can not download from the marketplace? If the application isn't downloadable by preference leave it, if it can be downloaded at a later time remove them. I have some applications like car home, clock, gmail, and google talk that I never use.

I will try to be as brief as possible... I have published a very simple android application it's name is "Vib-e-rator PRO". It's purpose is obvious, it can be used as a masssage vibrator or as an erotic stimulator...
My Problem is don't have an Android Phone to test my app in real time.
I have been recieving mixed comments from people. A few users say its working fine. But majority of them complained that the Phone would n quit vibrating even after the closing application.
Later i speculated that when ever the user switched off the vibrator and quit the app it would work as expected. If any user (most of em) directly closed the application ( either through the close option provided in the app itself or by pressing the END button in the phone ) without switching off the vibrator then it would not stop vibrating.
So i added myvib.Cancel() (myvib is the context for Phone Vibrator) in the exit block the close option provided in my app. For the other scenario, when it is closed by pressing the END button in phone, i have no idea how to solve it... So friends please advice me what is necessary to do... The comments i have been receiving from many users of my app is really embarassing....

I just installed a new sms app and love it, the problem is that I can't get the proprietary message application on the Hero to stop retrieving all messages. It doesn't help to have cool features like blacklist, if you can't use them because the original app just logs the threads anyway. How do you turn off or uninstall the original message program, I would prefer to just get rid of it and free up the space. Any ideas???

I'm writing an app dealing with JPEG pictures. The main Activity let the user slide between a set of pictures, but if these pictures are too large (imagine a set of pictures taken with a 12Mpix camera, not resized), the pre-loading of the second picture throws an OutOfMemoryException that leads to an immediate app VM shutdown whereas I surrounded my calls to BitmapFactory.decodeXXX() whit a try/ catch(Exception). So, the user gets an error message making him think the app is unstable, and the app didn't have any chance of telling him what really happened. How can I handle this a more "user friendly" way? Can I predict the memory size that will be necessary to load a compressed JPEG picture?

I was in my jeep the other day when I heard a ad for some song and a itagging...That got me thinking. Now before the fanboy name calling starts, this is not a comparison to iPhone. I have never owned one, nor shall I ever. I think for the android based phone to compete more with the whole iphone market, I think we need to develop our own brand of iTagging, our own brand of iPhone docks, and our own version of iTunes. I understand that the iPhone has been out for a long time and has had the media market to back it up. Heres the thing. There are way more versions of android based phones that there will be of iPhones. I know that there are a lot of variations of the phones, but its nothing adapters cant fix for the docks. as for the itagging, and the itunes apps, its nothing a dev cant handle. I am not a Dev, nor am I a manufacturer, but Im sure some of us can find a friend of a friend who knows this guy that lives down the street to help out our cause...

This would be some excellent support for the faithful Android developers. I have eight apps but live in Canada so I haven't been permitted to post them on the Market yet. Still I'm hoping Google might take this into account for Canadian developers who can't yet meet the sales criteria. I applied anyway and hope Google will respond so I can begin mobile testing.
