Android :: Updating Widget In Emulator
May 4, 2010
I have a simple widget that sets up its appearance during the initial update.
This involves using RemoteViews:
updateViews.setImageViewResource(R.id..., R.drawable....);
updateViews.setViewVisibility(R.id..., View.....);
The widget's onUpdate method is the usual stuff:
for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) { int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i];
RemoteViews updateViews = buildUpdate(context);
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, updateViews);
}

2.1 OEM on Droid Incredible. It still says the temp from yesterday afternoon and stuck on the same news story. Tried re-adding widget and still nothing. Refresh does nothing. Also reinstalled yesterday because I was having the same problem and nothing. It's a great little widget, but if it doesn't update it's pointless for me. Had the same problem with the ESPN scorecenter widget. Would never load data correctly or wouldn't update. Made sure I'm not closing the widget in my task killer and still won't update.

I have recently purchased the HTC Desire and i'm new to the Android operating system. The standard clock/weather widget that comes pre installed on the phone does not have my local town in its database (Lincoln(UK)). is there any way of updating it or is there a suitable replacement app that has a clock/weather widget?

I don't know if any of you use this already, but this is the most useful calendar app I've ever used. I can see this easily adapting to an Android widget, and think it would be very useful to many.
iCalViewer home page | Mac iCal calendar events and to do's on your desktop
It uses a timeline in order to see upcoming events. The vertical line is "now", and events in your calendar move across the screen towards the line the closer the events come to happening.
I already use this on my Mac, and would freaking LOVE it if someone stepped up to make something similar for Android.

I've been running the Facebook widget from LPP and it stopped updating last week. I've rebooted the phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the widget, no luck. Any thoughts?

Even though I specifically set FB to do not update nor notify, I still notice that in the widgets comments are updated. What am I doing wrong? or What is wrong with FB? I'm using Android 2.1 with latest FB version.

I installed the latest version of Astrid, added two tasks, then added the Astrid widget on one of the screens on my phone. I went back and added more tasks, but they don't show up in the widget. Is this a bug, how do I get Astrid to always show the latest list of tasks?

I am currently trying to create a cuckoo clock widget in which I am facing problem with updating the pendulum sound each second. My pendulum has to keep on ticking each second with sound effects integrated. I am doing update every second and I am able to play the sound using
mPlay = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.chime); mPlay.start();
But after about 30 seconds, the sound stops playing giving the log error as follows:
E/AudioTrack( 2106): AudioFlinger could not create track, status: -12 E/AudioSink( 2106): Unable to create audio track E/VorbisPlayer( 2106): mAudioSink open failed
Then again the same sound starts playing after a pause of about 20 seconds instead of getting played each second. It continues in this fashion of playing the sound file for some seconds, then to the pause state and then again playing from start. This problem doesn't come into picture when I'm trying to update the sound on hourly basis for my hourly chime because in that case only once every hour this sound is played, same is the case for updation every minute. This problem arises only for updating the sound each second. What is the reason behind this delay?

Over the past couple days, it seems like my Weather Channel app hasn't been working properly. When I move to the home screen that has the widget, it will be displaying the wrong temperature and picture (i.e. it might be showing "partly sunny" when it's night time). It just shows the temperature for the last time I opened the app.So, I click on the widget to open the app, and it brings me to one of the screens and it just says "N/A", while a green circle rotates in the upper-right corner. After a few seconds, it finally updates and shows me the current temperature/forecast (whichever screen I was in last).I've never had these problems before, up until the past few days. Usually I would just move over to my other home screen, look at the temp, and move back. It would always be [somewhat] updated by itself (usually every 30-60 minutes it seemed). Now it doesn't update until I actually open the app.Any ideas or suggestions? Or is anyone else having this problem? I am using the Droid Eris. I restarted the phone yesterday, still doing the same thing.

What way is most efficient for updating an widget that will be a clock(Timer/Alarm), but for a clock to really works, like a clock it would be needed to update at least twice in a minute (30 sec period or less).
But that can't be effective? Have looked at some of the "threads/topics" here at StackOverFlow but haven't found any information regarding effectiveness.
(Don't own an android device yet, so I can't really test battery draining and cpu)

I have a very funny problem with my DHD news widget. It won't update. I have tried to force it to update, removed all my subscriptions and re-added them, cleared the cache and stored data. All with various cycles of turning the phone on and off. No luck. It is now a blank widget and when I try to add RSS feeds it won't list any and effectively nothing happens when I tap the widget.

My calendar widget - the third one that shows the only today's date and any upcoming events - is not updating! It will show the correct event for that day/time, but not the correct date. It will show the date you added the widget and never update....Am I missing a setting to get this to update?

After the phone has been in hibernation mode for a while, when I bring it back up, my weather, and sometimes location is not updated. This just started happening a few days ago, and the only thing I can think of is that an app I installed in the last few days may be conflicting with it. I have read some posts from people with similar problems that can't get it to work at all. Mine will display the correct weather conditions and location if I hit the refresh button. I have had the phone almost a month, and up until a few days ago, it did everything automatically. I have not removed any components or applications.

I have 3 RSS feeds attached to my news app. I have set the app to update every 2 hours. When I have the news widget up, it does not update at all. I have the click on the little update button. What can I do? I have powered off and on my phone etc. Is this common?

So I have had my Evo rooted for a few weeks and the only weird thing going on is that the click widget isn't updating. I have gone to settings, turn it on, but once I return to the main page, it unchecks.

The widget is ThreeBarClock - UCCW by RyanMKelly. [URL] ....
When device is in sleep and I switch it back on, the widget is still 'stuck' behind time and doesn't get updated for a few seconds. Anything I am doing wrong? I am using Nova Prime launcher. I first noticed the problem when I hid the notification bar via Nova settings. I had since enabled the notification bar but the problem still persists.

My Timescape widget is not updating and still shows an SMS I received almost a week ago as the most recent message with caption "2 hours ago". I have changed my facebook updates to "Update automatically = never" and not included in the main spline, but have SMS and emails regularly appearing which is what I want to see in the widget. Anyone else got similar issue, or even better anyone 'had' similar issue and found a fix they'd like to share? At the moment it's a big waste of screen space.

Title says it all really, the widget worked fine until yesterday, it hasn't been updating at all automatically, and when I try to update manually, it just loads no tweets and the time at the bottom changes to present, as if it actually done something but it doesn't.

I am having a problem with the HTC Weather Widget not updating when I unlock my phone. I click on the widget and bring up the settings and check the "Update Automatically" I get a "Data Warning"- This may result in additional charges from your wireless provider. Enable automatic download of weather data? and I click yes. Yet it wont save and it keeps coming unchecked after I exit the widget. I even tried hitting now and I tried a soft reset.

I'd like to get a home screen terminal widget if that's possible. Literally just a text box on the home screen that I can run shell commands with.With that said:
1. Is there such an app in existence already?
2. Would there be any software/hardware limitations that would prevent me from developing one? I don't want to start trying to develop it and then find out that it was impossible from the start.

Anyone having trouble with widgets stop updating? Like my clock/calendar/weather/news/pretty much any widget i have stops updating after an hour. So i look at my clock widget two hours later and it is an hour behind. Happens to ALL my widgets.Even the quick turn on/off wifi,bt,gps and such. They just stop updating/showing animation.I have ADW launcher installed. I am wondering if it is that. I do not really want to remove it as i hate the stock 3 button interface at the bottom (why do i need a contacts and phone, just use the phone to look thru contacts, wasted space IMO) and am quite keen on keeping the 5 button.Any ideas? If i power off the phone and turn it back on it's fine again for about an hour. SOmetimes randomly thru the day it will start updating and working fine again then randomly stop again.

I created a sqlite database to store playlists for a media player I am developing because of extended feature (rather than using the Content Provider). It works perfectly on the 1.6 emulator but FCs on anything higher than 2.0... what has changed that I need to know about as far as opening databases in SDK 2.0+? Here is the logcat.
CODE:.............
Here is the dbhelper class

why can't stackoverflow just use tags like a normal syntax highlighter.

Finally strace gave me this:
CODE:................
And several other attempts to call "link" that also fail (sshfs does not support hard links).
Is it possible to change the emulator's behavior to create lock files somewhere in /tmp (using some hash of image path as lock file name)? I am OK to try this myself: which repositories from https://android.git.kernel.org/ are necessary to rebuild the emulator alone, and where in the sources is the code responsible for image locks?

I need to run several emulator instances to test my application. When i try to run instances using emulator -data <path> option, the emulator crashes.
I got a MS Visual Studio window informing that emulator throws a "unhandled win32 exception".
The exception message in the debugger (MS Visual Studio 2008) is: "Unhandled exception at 0x77c4706c in emulator.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x03216848"
The emulator runs normally without "-data" option.

Is there a way to reload an Android application in the emulator without closing the emulator, saving any code changes, and running the emulator again? If I make even a simple change to the layout, it takes about 30 seconds by time I run it in Eclipse and Android "boots", and I can unlock the emulator to run the application. Is there any way to shorten this time when making changes, or is it something I just have to deal with?
