Is it possible to view what requests are made to external sites/ servers by an app? Basically I'd kind of like to throw an application (I did not make) into a debugging type thing to see what requests (to where and what data) it makes. This is to kind of ensure a third party app does what it is saying, and isn't sending data elsewhere.

Is there a limit on the number of simultaneous http requests of the form:
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
I'm interested in any official limit as well as practical ones.
(In a previous life, you had to dig deep to discover that WinMo only allowed three WebRequests to be open at a time.)
Let's say I have a list of 20 files to download on a background thread.
Should I: Download them one at a time, blocking the thread (but not the UI thread) to wait for each one? Start 20 threads each downloading one of the files?
I expect the answer may be somewhere in between, where I create C threads and work on the queue of N files, where C is a number like 3 or 4.
I suspect some of you here have already done some experimentation and know the magic number. In addition, I suspect there may be more efficient ways of doing what I'm doing than creating a new DefaultHttpClient for each request.
How to collect URLs of all http/https requests made by the phone as well as well as the return status code and user agent from the headers.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIm using a web service, so I want to use an async thread for the HTTP authentication request and another thread later to make additional service requests while my main thread runs.Would like to see a good example of how to do this and how to show busy messages somehow in main app. How does the main app know when the thread finished? And what if my thread encounters exceptions, how do I deal with that?HTTP requests are sent later, use the same cookies setup up by the first auth request, so will the later requests pick up the same cookies and just work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm testing out a web page on the Android 2.0 and 2.2 emulators, and the jQuery.ajax() requests that the app makes have slightly different behaviors regarding HTTP Authentication Headers. The server I'm making requests to requires basic authentication, and the ajax requests in 2.2 send the proper auth header. In 2.0, I am debugging with Fiddler, and it seems that the requests do not include the auth header, and the server rejects the request with a 401.2 error. I don't think it matters, but the server is running IIS 7. One interesting thing I noticed while debugging the web requests is that Android 2.2 makes two requests for each resource, whether or not it's an XHR. One does not contain the Auth header, and the second one does. In 2.0, it seems to make 2 requests for everything but XHR's:
Here is the 2.2 header for the first XHR:
GET http://192.168.1.111/sonar/mobileweb/sonar/views/week/init.ejs HTTP/1.1

Has anyone experienced this behavior before? It is basically causing my app to not work at all in version 2.0. Version 2.1 seems to act the same as 2.0.
I'm trying to load https requests with a Webkit object but It shows only a blank page, with http requests I don't have problems, It shows the page correctly. I have look the source code of the browser, in http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Browser.git;a... but I don't understand how the browser process the https requests. I think that the class BrowserActivity process the http and https requests but I don't see how to do it. Somebody could explain how the browser process the https request? It uses a Webview object to show the response of the https requests?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe behavior of XMLHttpRequests in Android is very odd when doing cross domain requests. The browser should either fail with an error and not perform the request, or it should follow CORS (http:// www.w3.org/TR/access-control/) and start with an OPTIONS request to the remote domain. The Android browser (2.1 and 2.2) instead performs the request, which is received by the remote server (and this is the dangerous part both for data leaking and remote attacks), but the response is not set in the javascript (status of 0 and responseText null)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI wrote an android application to request a scan for available WiFi signals around, using the WifiManager, then dump the results to a file. The program works fine, but this weird bug occurs. Initially I was requesting a scan every 30 seconds, and everything worked fine. I then tried to request a scan every two seconds, I get this strange bug. Everything will work fine for a few minutes, then the time between two scan requests jumps from 2 seconds to 50 seconds for no reason.
Then, for four more scans, it will scan at 2-second intervals, then skip to a 50-second interval, and it continues to do this consistently. With larger time intervals this bug does not appear. Has anyone experienced this bug before? Is there a way to prevent it? Or does Android automatically cancel scan requests if they are too frequent?
Im looking for the concept of creating Java Server to handle Client requests and respond to it , i want to use Google App engine which does not allow Socket connections , so is the client & server in this case will communicate using Http requests? i'll be glad if someone could clarify the logic to me and provide a few lines of code.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an app making an https post on one thread while performing a file download on another thread. For some odd reason, I am getting a ClientProtocolException saying that "The server failed to respond with a valid HTTP response". The error goes away if everything is run on a separate thread. Oddly if I run the two server requests in serial, the error goes away. It seems there's a bug that happens when two requests are made at the same time.
Important note: The post occurs to a different server than the download so the servers themselves should not be causing the problem. The code is simple. Here's the file download code:.............
I have an application that is performing HTTP Requests (specifically calling the FogBugz API) when the user clicks certain buttons. Right now, I am just creating a service when the application starts, and then calling different methods in that service to complete requests. However, when I do this, there is the usual hang in the UI thread. I have looked at AsyncTask, but am not sure it will do what I want to accomplish. Because I need to instantly parse the XML that the HTTP Request returns, I need to have a process that is able to return this data to the UI thread. Will ASyncTask be able to accomplish this, or is there some other way.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there an easy way to inject a header into all HTTP request sent from the emulator, including HTTP requests made by my app and also by the built-in web browser? I need this ability to model the behavior of a carrier gateway. I tried running the emulator through Fiddler as a proxy because I know how to manipulate HTTP requests in Fiddler, but that that didn't work. The emulator was successfully able to make the first HTTP request, but choked on subsequent ones. Reading this list, it seems that getting the emulator to use a proxy is not is not that easy. If this is the only way to do what I need, then I'll certainly give it another shot and post details about any problems I encounter. I am just wondering if perhaps there is an easier way to inject a header.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am developing a microblogging platform in which I need to populate the page with Post (user defined class with fields) obtained from the Django server using HttpGet.In the client side(Android) I am using GSON to parse the responses from server to the type Post. So I require that server should send Post's one by one so as to add each of them to a list of Posts after parsing and then finally notifying the list adapter of changes in the data set after all Post's have been added.But the problem coming when intially loading the application, the page has to be populated with 10 latest Post's from the server. So I thought of a rather dirty way of sending 10 httpget requests to the server one after the other to the server. The code looks like this.I was thinking of executing it 10 times in a loop to get the 10 Post's I require. But in Django as far I know (correct me if I am wrong) there's no way to keep an index of the last sent Post to the client and so no way to send the 'next' Post on the next HttpGet request. So I am out of ideas.I feel there's a better way to do this efficiently.

I developed a game for Android called Jumping Bird, it writes the score obtained by the player in the database on my web server, but it does so synchronized. While it tries to write data in the database on the web, the entire game is stopped , and worse, when the server is slow, the request takes more than 5 or 10 seconds, an ANR(application not respond) error occurs and the OS tries to close the app.
I wonder how I can make that request asynchronous.There is any library that does it?

I am posting this thread to see what people would like to have as boot animations. I probably won't have time to make all of them, but I plan on trying to make a few of the top requests.
Also, if you have boot animations you have made, or links to someone else's boot animations that you like and think others would like here, please post those links! No sense in going through all that trouble for one that's already made!
*Important!*
When posting links to boot animations, PLEASE specify whether it is an animation that doesn't work with the Fascinate and you'd like us to try and make it work, OR if it has been CONFIRMED to work specifically with the Fascinate, just so people know.
I will be posting links to some more of my favorites soon, but for now, this is my current favorite. I did not make it, and when I find out who did, they are going to get a big, fat thank you from me! It's awesome, and battery friendly to boot. (no pun intended)
Fascinate Boot Animation Links (confirmed to work):
Windows 7 Boot Animation
Spinning Droid (thanks to Saps for link and Natems from MyDroidWorld for creating it)
Fascinate Shutdown Animation Links(confirmed to work):
Reverse Android Scribble Shutdown (thanks to Saps for reversing, testing it, and the link)
Links to more links:
Bootanimation.zip links on XDA (thanks jamesnmandy)
Please post the quickest link possible to the actual "bootanimation.zip" file, or whatever they've named it, and if possible, please credit the producer for his/her work. Keep in mind that some links might point to download files that require membership/registration in order to allow you to download it.

The advantage is that you don't need to recompile your entire project.
