Where can I buy an Android OS Phone for TMobile? I really want to start using android phones really bad. It can be online or offline.
Is it possible to get the extension of a raw resource in Android? How?

What is the best place to buy Evo off contract? Certain places like Wirefly don't sell off contract, others like Amazon apparently don't either. Places like Best buy and radio shack seem to have a higher off contract price ($549). Sprint's online store seems to be the most obvious choice, but then we get stuck with Tax (which for california is nearly 50$ dollars)
So, has anyone done their research and figured out what place will be best, and why?
So for clarification if I'm not satisfied with Sprint can I return my Evo and cancel my contract without any penalties since it's been less than 30 days? Or will I still have to pay the ETF?

There is no evidence of orange applications in the menu and my other vodafone sim works with it too! Is there anyway to work out whether this has the generic HTC unbranded rom or not?

View 15 Replies View RelatedI'm a bit hesitant to present this here already but today i put out the first architecturally frozen release of my game development library called libgdx. I go ahead and post the content of the description page of libgdx here so you get an idea what it is all about. A series of articles is currently in preparation at my blog at. I will continue extending the library in the near future and hope that some of consider joining the effort. Without further ado, here's a simple FAQ for libgdx. === What is libgdx? === Libgdx is my attempt at a cross-platform game development library written in Java with some JNI code for performance hungry code. It abstracts away the differences between writting an OpenGL application for the desktop via Jogl and doing the same for the Android platform.
This allows you to prototype and develop your application entirely on the desktop and only needing 6 lines of code to execute it on Android. Neat, so what does it offer? Libgdx offers modules for graphics via OpenGL ES, audio, input and file i/o. All modules abstract away system specifics so you can execute the same code on the desktop and Android. The graphics module offers full bindings to OpenGL ES 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0. On the desktop almost all of the OpenGL ES functionality is emulated.
I like both phones a lot. Each has something that it can do better than the other. Now I'm just kinda picking by the carrier. With Verizon, I will most likely have better coverage everywhere I go, which is important because my dad is a truck driver. I will be paying $180 for for 2 lines with 1500 mins, web on both phones, and unlimited texts I will be stuck on 3G, not 4g. i heard that verizon's 3G is still pretty fast though. With T-mobile I will prob have worse coverage everywhere I go. Paying for 3000 mins, unlimited texts, web on both phones, and will be getting DOUBLE the amount of minutes from Verizon AND 30 BUCKS CHEAPER. I will also have access to t-Mobile's "4g", which isn't too good, but will get better over time. So at first glance, it's obvious I should go with tmobile, but because my dad travels all over the place, I don't think he'll always have coverage compared to Verizon. I am located in North New Jersey and my dad usually goes to PA, NY, VA, ML, and CT. So which carrier is best for coverage in the North East?
View 18 Replies View RelatedI tried to construct SlidingDrawer widget programmatically, but had no luck. The JavaDoc says the constructor needs "AttributeSet attrs" parameter, which is "a specified set of attributes defined in XML".
I provided my own implementation of AttributeSet interface, with all the attributes mentioned in JavaDoc, but got a weird ClassCastException - it seems that it assumes the attrs parameter is of type TypedArray, which seems to be impossible to use as base class (constructor hidden). Is there a way to construct SlidingDrawer programmatically and what is the correct contract to use it ? It is no way clear from the documentation.
I have problem with adding a new file type to android(the file type is .comap).I need to run my application with this file from android browser and from file manager. I know that I need to write a special <intent-filter> for that,but I don't know how,because this format hasn't any special,registered MIME type.
View 15 Replies View RelatedWe am looking for a expert Android developer for Android application development. You must have documented experience in following areas:
- UI development - file handling - multimedia decoding - authentication
We already have our application running on other devices and can provide you with functioning models. We will provide you with a well documented API for you to interface to our servers. The UI will change a little compared to what we have now. You will have access to an experienced graphics designer for any necessary design changes.
We expect that you will sign an NDA and a contract with us. Compensation will be $20,000.00. Payment will occur as we launch the application. It will be based on a revenue share model where you will get 30% of the revenues up to a max of $20,000.00. We estimate you will reach the $20,000.00 mark within 2 months of application launch date. We are only looking for expert developers and you should be able to initiate the work within the next couple weeks. If succesful, we would be interested in extending additional work as the application evolves.
I need my app to run on all Android versions, but the Contacts API changed in 2.0. In SDK 1.6 and earlier I use android.provider.Contacts to query the contacts DB, but this does not work in 2.0 Instead, for 2.0 I use android.provider.ContactsContract. This presents a problem: when I have code for ContactsContract, my app will not build for 1.6 and earlier. Do I need to have two separate versions of my app (one for <= 1.6 and one for 2.0 and later) or is there a way to avoid doing this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm happily retrieving contact photos with the new Contacts Contract APIs and cursor.getBlob, but I'm having great trouble working out how to set a contact photo.
I believe I have the right URI (at least, it works for retrieving the photo), but it just won't work for updating or adding one.
Here's my best bet:
ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, bytes);
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath( ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, friendId ); uri = Uri.withAppendedPath( uri, ContactsContract.Contacts.Photo.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
// eg: content://com.android.contacts/contacts/6/photo
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.PHOTO, bytes.toByteArray()); values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.MIMETYPE, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE );
context.getContentResolver().insert(uri, values);
And here's my exception:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Unknown uri: content://com.android.contacts/contacts/6/photo at com.android.providers.contacts.LegacyApiSupport.update (LegacyApiSupport.java:914) at com.android.providers.contacts.ContactsProvider2.updateInTransaction (ContactsProvider2.java:2924) at com.android.providers.contacts.SQLiteContentProvider.update (SQLiteContentProvider.java:139) at com.android.providers.contacts.ContactsProvider2.update (ContactsProvider2.java:1923) at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.update (ContentProvider.java:180) at android.content.ContentProviderNative.onTransact (ContentProviderNative.java:195) at android.os.Binder.execTransact(Binder.java:287) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.run(Native Method).

View 9 Replies View RelatedThis is my first Android phone after owning WinMobile phones for the last 5 years or so. Experiencing a frustrating issue with dialing phone numbers from my address book or Exchange GAL that contain extensions - typically preceeded by an "X" or "ext" or "-". Android ignores these delimeters and simply appends the extension to the main number, which then gets interpreted as an international number and the first 3 digits are assumed to be the country code. This renders all phone numbers with extensions unusable. Since I don't have edit capabilities of my company's GAL I can't just go make changes.What character are people using to separate extensions from the main number?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am a business user that has been a Blackberry user.Recently moved the to Samsung Fascinate.Love a lot about it but noticed that the contacts that have phone numbers followed by an extension the Fascinate lumps all of these numbers together rather than dialing the 10 digits and asking me if I want to dial the extension. Thus the call does not even go through because the 16 or more digit number now is not recognized as a valid phone number.Does anyone have a work around with an app or a new release?

View 4 Replies View RelatedOn my N4, Kitkat I noticed problem with missed call.
I'm using exDialer and not stock one.
When I have missed call, I press icon in dashclock, but I'm always asked for "complete action with:" adn I have choice for exDialer or History (open stock dialer history).
I already cleared defaults on both apps, but problem persist.
So as I see, that extension can't remeber default app.
