Android : Trying To Get Basic Auth Working With WebView
Oct 13, 2009
I have a WebView in my layout which I want to display a web page in. However the webpage requires Basic Authentication.
If I try to access this web page in the normal android browser, I get prompted for a username and password which then gets remembered and works for the site in future.
I want to do the same thing in my application, but when I load the page into the webview it just comes straigt up with the Unauthorized message without prompting.
I guess the prompting for Authentication is written in code in the android browser. Does anyone know how to inject a username and password into the WebView?
I have done a search arond and found the setHttpAuthUsernamePassword (String host, String realm, String username, String password) Method, But can't seem to get it to work and I can't find anyone else who has either? Not sure if I am giving it the correct parameters as I'm a little confused by what is means as the Realm?
I assumed that if the site was myhost.dyndns.org then the hostname would be myhost and the realm would be dyndns.org? This didn't seem to work. I also tried connecting by IP Address but that makes the Realm setting even more confusing? Any ideas on how I can get this working?

I have a Web View. I'd like to show some page from my server, but I require some basic authentication. Is there a way I can specify basic auth credentials when calling Web View.load Data() somehow? I can do this on i phone with the equivalent web view class, thinking maybe same is possible with android?

Say, a WebView with an html that scrolls vertically. What would be the basic steps to make it scroll horizontally (screen by screen)? Can't grasp the idea.

I was and I am so excited with my phone. How can I be happy with my phone if some of the basic features are not working properly? I am very frustrated with my phone not because of the bugs but because it really affected my life.
1. Alarm issue, Motorola wants the user to be searching in the forums to find a solution to a core function? I got to work late by 1 hour the first time this occurred.
2. Yesterday suddenly when I unlocked my phone there was nothing on the home screens, and I have the stock home application. I was going right left, and nothing was there!
3. The music player suddenly starts playing. I was in a meeting and suddenly the music player starts playing! What should I say to the other people? There's a bug in my Milestone and Motorola is just too lame to fix it.

Currently in .../external/ppp/pppd/auth.c, function check_passwd, somebody write
{ #if 1 return UPAP_AUTHNAK; #else .....
This basically means PAP auth is not allowed on android. Is there any reason behind this? Can I savely change the #if 1 to #if 0?

I've been developing for Android for three months now, and for the first time I'm working with the new 1.5 SDK.
I'm facing a pretty basic problem with the WebView. I'm following the HelloWebView tutorial (here: http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-webview.html) and when I'm launching my Activity, the page opens on the browser and not in my app!
I tried everything, but I don't have a clue of the reason. Anyone faced the problem and knows how to solve it? Code...

I'm wondering how to use the GData APIs without requiring the user to type their username and password in my app. The user has to login to the phone, so it doesn't make much sense to me that apps would require them to type it in again. The phone's calendar and Gmail apps obviously don't prompt so how is it done?
I found some threads on this which indicate this isn't possible, but they are pretty old and I was wondering if there is any new information (i.e., given that we have a new SDK version 1.1).

I have an android app I want to connect to a Google App Engine based server. I can get the auth token from the AccountManager. It seems the next thing I am supposed to do is talk to an auth page to get a cookie. Following the awesome instructions here: http://blog.notdot.net/2010/05/Authenticating-against-App-Engine-from-an-Android-app
I think my url should be:
https://MYAPP.appspot.com/_ah/login?continue=http://localhost/&auth=CrAZYl000ngToken
but rather than a redirect, I get a 500 server error:
Error: Server Error
The server encountered an error and could not complete your request. If the problem persists, please report your problem and mention this error message and the query that caused it. What's up with that? What is the URL I am supposed to be going to? Or maybe I'm doing something else wrong?

I have created a webview with a transparent background. Code...
Here is the JavaInterface that should change the color of the background when the html form is submitted and all the checkboxes pass the test. Code...
This does not work however, and the returned document still has a transparent background. What am I doing wrong, it seems that browser.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE); does nothing?

I have a webview in my app that generally works fine for loading websites. But I cannot get www.gmail.com to work: when I open www.gmail.com I see the login page, try to login, afterwards the screen goes black and my app/process is killed. I don't see much in my logcat, just some strange debug information is being dumped as below. But generally https sites work fine, and even more complicated login procedures like opening stackoverflow.com, logging in via openid through https, back to stackoverflow, all work without a problem in my webview. Only gmail.com is giving me these problems.......

I have a WebView that displays a complex graph. My problem is that the webview will only scroll a few pixels instead of scroll horizontal all the way so I can view the entire graph. How can I make it so my WebView is able to be scrolled all the way to the right/left to view the entire webview content? I tried putting a ScrollView around my WebView but it did the same thing.

I am developing part of an Android application that needs to use a WebView to open a password protected site. I am using SharedPreferences to provide the username and password from when the user logs in the app for the first time. I've tested the credentials it's returning, so I know that those are correct. When I run this in the emulator, the site says that I'm unauthorized (even though I am). Here's the code...
So does anyone know why this wouldn't be authenticating me? Should the realm string that I put "" for actually be something?

I have a WebView in my Android App that is loading an HTML string using the loadDataWithBaseURL() method. The problem is that local anchor links (<a href="#link">...) are not working correctly. When the link is clicked, it becomes highlighted, but does not scroll to the corresponding anchor.
This also does not work if I use the WebView's loadUrl() method to load a page that contains anchor links. However, if I load the same URL in the browser, the anchor links do work.
Is there any special handling required to get these to work for a WebView?
I am using API v4 (1.6).
There isn't much to the code, here are the relevant parts of some test code I've been working with:

We already use Android API. But sometimes I want to know is it verified or not? by whom?(e.g. Android team in google) by which one? (e.g. Unit test or Basic Acceptance Test for API) Do android team have any test report? Because this is a platform for smartphone. For example, if there has any problem in Android API (e.g. Date and Time), it makes customer spend money and time more. But I can't find any report about verifying API test. If you have any information about it, please let me know :) Also if there has no information, how can I test some API to verify API.

I'm having great difficulty getting basic textures to work in an OpenGL ES app on my Droid (2.1-update1). I trying to render a simple textured quad - four vertices, two faces, with normals and texture coords. When rendered, the texture is garbled and full of static, similar to TV noise. The basic colors from the texture map are there, but obviously the texture isn't being read or applied correctly. My texture load sequence is simple : int[] textures = new int[1]; gl.glGenTextures(1, textures, 0); Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(cx.getResources(), R.drawable.img); gl.glBindTexture(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, textures[0]); GLUtils.texImage2D(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, bmp, 0);...

I am a complete novice to the field of Android applications. I want to build a basic Android application of an "website alert and post service".
Eg: Lets take FACEBOOK or TWITTER as the website.The application which I design should intimate me about the new posts or tweets of my friends. At the same time I must be able to post or tweet just by opening a text box in the application and writing in it. As soon as I write, the message should get posted or tweeted on the website.
I am not sure about the complexity of the above application but I feel this would reduce the trouble of opening a browser, typing the website name and then logging in by putting the username and password.

Line 5 corresponds to ImageView line. Do you have any idea why my program executes in all Android versions except 1.5?

I am new to android and last year i bought two books of android 1.5. But at that time i was busy in my project so was not able to work on android. Now i want to start android again. Should i go for those books or should i buy new editions. Is there any major change regarding basic learning? My question is purely related to change in version.

I routinely use my g1's browser to connect to a website that is protected with basic authentication (so you get the popup for username and password). Ever since updating to cupcake, my phone seems incapable or unwilling to correctly use / remember my passwords. It's driving me crazy, and I'm ready to chuck the thing out the window, or at least revert to the previous version. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
