Android :: Suitable Minimum SDK Version For APK Files
Oct 7, 2009
We're seeking advice for our application in the Android Market, in relation to nominating a suitable minimum SDK version for the APK files published through the market. We understand that at this juncture there's no facility to provide associate multiple APK files (supporting different minimum SDK versions) within a single listing in the Market.
We have updated our existing application with new Android 1.6 API features and are keen to release it to the Market. However we're concerned about the general availability (and uptake) of version 1.6 firmware and seeking to ensure that we don't inadvertently release an updated APK should there be limited release of this firmware.
Can anyone provide an indication as to how widely the 1.6 firmware has been released? To that end, what are generally acceptable practices for supporting multiple SDK versions from within the market?

What do you usually use for your minimum sdk when compiling? Should I just compile it to 2.x since I think 1.x is already obsolete?

What I need is to perform some network operations in background inside a service. I want them to run in a service because, as pointed out in the "developing rest client application" talk from google io, I don't want to loose the result if the activity is brought in background. What sounds quite obvious is to use an Intent Service, and get the result as a broadcast. In this way I am sure the service will die and no consume any other resources when its done, but I need to convert the actions I want to perform to intents and back. Well, I was now wondering if it makes sense to bind to the service instead, at least for getting the result. And a more general question: is the bind mechanism suitable for one shot services, or it just make sense for persistent services? What happens if I call the startService method but the service is already active? Will it start another service, or will it call the onStartCommand of the same service? I am asking this because if I use "regular" non sticky service, it could happen that I need it to perform some action and I don't know if it is already active (and I don't want to have a queue of action waiting for onServiceConnected to be called.

I can see that I'm going to have to get an actual phone sooner than later, and for various reasons I'll need to get an "unlocked" version. As long as I'm laying out that many $$$, I might as well get one that I can use personally and shop some apps, etc.So would the Samsung Galaxy S be suitable for development work? I assume that a general unlocked version would have all the expected Android built-in apps and would not have restrictions on what apps can be installed and from what sources. Any comments on this device?(This also assumes that I can actually get one. The effects of that chip shortage that they've been talking about seems to be hitting the supply lines already.)

I'm looking to buy a slightly bigger card for my hero, especially since apps2sd has stolen some of the space on my card now. This is the card I was thinking of going with, Play.com (UK) - Mobile - Free Delivery But since I've never purchased anything like this before, just wanted to check this is the right thing. It's listed as 'Micro SDHC Plus', but I take it that's just marketing spiel for plain old Micro SD rather than a different type of card?

I currently have an official orange HTC Hero running on official 2.1. No problems, I actually like it a lot but browsing this sections of the forums, I've seen that people have taken advantage of rooting so. Are there any ROMs that you would pick over the official 2.1 that don't:
Eat battery life
Cause glitches(that are very noticeable)
And can:
be updated to directly from official 2.1
If you have any guides or info or links that are in English, I'd appreciate it if you could show them to me. But the most important thing is whether it's worth it.

What's the minimum memory needed to run a RAR decompression algorithm? I want to port a RAR decompression algorithm to mobiles (iPhone, Android and BlackBerry) and want to know if there's a bare minimum of memory needed before starting. I've heard that RAR decompression requires much more memory than ZIP decompression.

I have a TextView in a RelativeLayout which contains an integer number. The number will range between 1 and 99 - can anyone tell me how to size the TextView so that its width is always the width of the string "99" even if it only contains "1"?
I need this because the positions of the components to the right of this TextView depend on its width, so all are position depending on how many digits the TextView contains.
I don't mind if this is done in XML or code - I just want to avoid having to set the width of a TextView in pixels!

Is there a way i can set a minimum zoon level for my MapView?. I don't know if you've realized the map looks really ugly when zoom level is one. You see the whole world map replicated. I would like to avoid that zoom level no matter if user is zooming in through gestures or zoom controls. I've looked at different alternatives, but none seems to work. Does somebody have a good idea about this?

I'm not real savvy about the power situation for the Sprint Hero that I just bought. The OEM power source says that the input is standard 100-240V. The OEM output shows as 5V=1A. Now, I have other USB chargers (e.g., for my iPod). The input is the same (100-240V), but the output is:
Output: 5.0V=400mA. Can anyone tell me (a) whether this will HARM my Hero, and (b) whether this will effectively CHARGE my Hero? Also Connecting to my computer via the USB cable: does the charge take longer than if connected directly to a wall charger?

i have a Samsung galaxy s3 clone . it was bought from shop in china . dont know who actually made it .
i made its backup with mtkdroid root tools 2.3 but its corrupted.
i tried few roms and flashed it with wrong preloader and dsp_bl .. which gave me total brick .. no charging . no display. no detection by pc. after a lot of hit and trial i somehow unbricked it . now it has android 4.0.4 . but it has few problems.
1: Cameras are not working
2: Sim management is greyed out /disabled .. and no imei ..
3: No baseband ..
now since my own created backup is corrupt and this set is not branded so no real way of identifying it how can i find its factory rom ? from which information I can decide whether a ROM is compatible with my device?
all the details along with pics of my set are here ..
These were taken with stock ROM ..

I'm looking for a way to implement a minimum value in my SeekBar and also have the option to increment decimal numbers. For example, currently my SeekBar's minimum is set to 0, but I need it to start at the value 0.2. Also, I would like to have the functionality to be able to have the user select a number from 0.2 to 10.0 at a .1 precision so they can choose the numbers 5.6 or 7.1.
Here are the style attributes for my SeekBar:

I am trying to make an app for the Android that does RMD calculations. The program, however, keeps giving 0.0.
I think that my problem lies in this code:
CODE:......................
I tried using .equals(), but it complained that I was trying to dereference the long value. Also, I am aware that java.util.Date is deprecated, but I don't want to try the other classes. From my first Android app, I figured out the "==" does not work, but I am not sure what to do here.
I have verified that the input for a balance and the birthdate values were accepted, so that is how I limited it to this particular class.
