Android :: Strange Behavior After Installing Anti-virus

Aug 28, 2010

Last night I downloaded antivirus free by droidSecurity inc.I ran a scan and it said I had something suspicious but would not allow me to view any details. Eh lame, I removed the app and jumped into bed.Today I was out driving around and got a warning my internal Phone memory was low. I took a look and it said 150 MB free.so I rebooted the phone and maybe I was being dumb because I thought you could cancel the SIM password and use the device as a PDA with no access to make phone calls.Anyhow I restored my clockwork recovery nandroid backup from a couple of days ago and now things seem better. Phone has 0.9 GB free.Are there any good applications to help manage the available memory on the phone?

Motorola Droid :: Strange Behavior Of Default Messaging App

Nov 29, 2009

I am having some problems with the default messaging app. Everything was fine until I downloaded Handcent. After playing around with Handcent, I decided to remove it. After I did, when I tried to send a picture with the default client, it would appear to send properly, but the person I was sending too would get a notification that the attached media was 'too large' or something similar, and not be able to view the picture Finally, I reinstalled Handcent and could send pictures from it just fine. I noticed that Handcent asks to resize pictures when sending where the default app does not. I could not find any settings for 'resize' in the default app. I figured I just had a bug with the default client, and continued to use Handcent with no problems. I would periodically check the default client, with the same results.Finally, after several days of using nothing BUT Handcent, I decided to give the default app another try, and now I find that it is working again with no problems, and in fact, the pictures I send with it that are apparently NOT resized look better on the phones I send them to than the ones I send with Handcent. Has anyone else had a problem like this, or know what could be going on?

Samsung Epic 4G :: Strange Erratic Screen Behavior

Sep 27, 2010

I activated an almost new Epic this weekend, and it has been amazing so far.I only noticed one strange erratic occurence - when I put the phone to standby, and went to look at it a little while later, the screen was already on.I clicked on home, and as soon as I did that, it would somehow activate the google search widget, and bring up the keyboard as if you pressed the search widget. I'd press home, and it would do the same thing again. It kept repeating it over and over no matter what I did.I finally powered the phone off, and then turned it back on.After that, there were no further issues. Anyone else had anything like this happen?

HTC Incredible :: Strange Behavior After Linking Sense Contacts With Facebook

Aug 10, 2010

I manually linked a few contacts in HTC Sense to their corresponding Facebook profile. Afterwards I see strange behavior including one or more of the following:The contact becomes unavailable to Google Gesture Search One or more single digit telephone numbers are added to the contact adding clutter. I learned I can delete these if I click Menu > Edit > choose Google > remove when clicking on the contact in the People app, I receive an error that the contact is not available I am running the stock Android 2.1 that shipped with my Incredible. This seems like a pretty substantial bug. Has anyone experienced and/or solved it?

Android :: Strange Activity Stack Behavior When Using Map Activity

Apr 23, 2010

I have the following activity structure in my application A simple "splash screen" activity is started when the application is fired up (let's call it "Splash"). This activity starts the main activity when the user presses a button (I will call it "Main"). Main can in turn start two activities from the menu. The first activity presents a simple form (let's call this one "Form"), the second is a MapActivity that presents a map (it is called "Map").
Main, Form, and Map are declared exactly the same in the manifest:
<activity android:name="fully qualified activity class"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation"
> <intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter> </activity> When Main is active and I start Form and press "back", Main comes up again. Pressing "back" again brings up "Splash". Nothing strange here.Now comes the strange part: when I am in Main, start Map, and press "back", Main comes up as expected. But pressing "back" again just restarts Main. A second press on "back" is needed to bring me back to Splash!So it seems that starting the Map activity somehow results in Main ending up on the activity stack twice while starting the Form activity does not! Both Form and Map are started like this: start Activity(new Intent(this, MyActivity.class)); I don not catch the back key in any activity.Any clues on what is going on or how to debug this?

It just stays on Installing.However, the FB app works fine on the phone itself.Is this a Market glitch? Is there anyway I can purge it from out of my downloads section?

I need to rotate an ImageView by a few degrees. I'm doing this by subclassing ImageView and overloading onDraw(). code...

The problem is that the image that results shows a bunch of jaggies.

How can I antialias an ImageView that I need to rotate in order to eliminate jaggies? Is there a better way to do this?

HTC Incredible : Virus On Device / Way To Fix

Jun 22, 2010

Is it possible to get a virus on this device? I got a text from a few friends saying that they got an email (which was send to everyone in my Google contacts) with a Spam link for some Russian website. I only check my email from my Mac Book Pro or my Incredible. The password is unique from any other account I have, and it was recently changed. I am 100% sure no one knows what it is. Now it has been changed, and my Google account (my primary account, the one that everything from the phone syncs with) has been disabled my Google. I'm trying to figure out how this happened so it doesn't happen again.

Android :: Anti-Task Killer To Keep Droid From Closing Processes?

Aug 23, 2010

I subscribe to the church of not using a task killer but what I really would like is an app that I can select programs I don't want android to kill.

An example of why I want this: theres 3 to 4 websites I view for the most part on my phone. I like to open my browser and get it all set up in tabs on Dolphin. However, if I don't use it for while, I re-open the browser to find it had been closed and I have to repeat.

I'd use this in conjunction with the app that monitors CPU use (forgot what it was) and gives a notification if an app rises over a customized threshold in case the app started getting too hungry.
