If I have my app fetching content from my server, what mechanism should I use on my server to ensure that its my app making the request? Is there any way that I can sign the request to using my app's signature to show its come from my app and not from a stolen version or copycat?

this Android code worked fine before, but i'm having problems for some reason. here is the request i'm trying to make: https://www.google.com/reader/api/0/token. i'm getting 400:Bad Request as a response, and i'm not sure why. isn't this the correct URL for requesting a token? the auth token is being passed as a header in all requests now, and i can request feed list, and it works just fine, so there's nothing wrong with the auth code. what gives? in addition, i can request a token in a normal browser, like Chrome, and get a token as a response body. so the request itself is not the problem. i just can't figure out what is wrong with my requests in code...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am developing an Android app for a website. I'm trying to get some information from the website by sending a cookie using a HttpGet request. I don't know where I am going wrong with the request. I am using AsyncTask to send the request to the server. The request also uses a token which I receive when I login to the webpage. All this is clear in the code below. This is part of the process in the doInBackground() function of the Asynctask:
BufferedReader in = null;
JSONObject token = Login.getToken(); // Token received after login, used in the cookie
try {
r = token.get("session_token").toString();
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();

I own a Xiaomi MI2S, running MIUI-3.8.16 @ Android version 4.1.1.JRO03L with Baseband version CEFWMAZM-2.0.128 017.
From my phone provider (Tele2) i have to dial a 1 (one) before my PIN-code when traveling abroad.
The code is accepted, I can be called and i can send and receive SMS messages.
However i cannot make phone-calls...
The error (?) is "DIAL request modified to SS request" and (very short) "not connected"
Per the current implementation in Sensor Manager, the SensorThread is polling data per below code, final int sensor = sensors_data_poll(values, status, timestamp); it then checks the sensor type if it is registered and processes the data further. For an application which has registered for only one sensor, still to get that particular sensor data, SensorThread has to execute for atleast N-1 loop most of the time. Can anybody provide the insight as to, why SensorThread is waiting to check the sensor type to be returned by the HAL instead of sending sensor information which is currently registered by that application. Wouldn't that increase the performance?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to know about the 'service discovery' mechanisms supported by android - particularly, Printer Discovery. Does android provide such a discovery option? example: support for snmp broadcast? I tried out an application "PrinterShare" link:

I'm wondering how vector drawing in Android with the Shape class may resemble another vector drawing standard. Since Shape is a Drawable, and Drawables are usually defined as XML, it sounds a lot like the vector drawing commands in SVG. My question is this: Has anybody created an XSLT transformation, or other mechanism, for converting an SVG drawing description into Android Shapes?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat 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.

1) I want to ensure I am using a current 'fixed' location and not a previously stored one, so I am trying to avoid using getLastKnownLocation, but cannot seem to figure out the alternate to this?
2) What is the best way to display a "please wait" message or something along those lines while the GPS service is attempting to get a fix (and ideally periodically allow the user to cancel out)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a service that will monitor location changes daily. What I know so far that to start a service at boot, I have to follow the linked tutorial. This way I can get the service started at boot, but to save battery I need it only between 9am-9pm.

How can I ensure a service is started at 9am and stopped 9pm every day?
My application opens in Activity A1. None of the views in A1 are focused at startup, until I use the arrow keys to navigate through the views. A button press in A1 launches activity A2. When A2 opens, the first Button in A2 is focused by default. I do not want this happen. What I want is when A2 opens, none of the buttons are focused until arrow keys are used to naviagte through them(just like it is in A1).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI open an Activity which has a number of elements... some TextViews, some Buttons, and an EditText. For some reason, when the activity starts, the EditText is focused by default, which causes the keypad to appear hiding the screen. I only want this EditText to be in focus if the user clicks into it. How can I ensure that this View isn't in focus when the activity starts? I've tried calling requestFocus() on one of the buttons, but it hasn't changed anything. Ideally, I don't want anything in focus at all.
View 7 Replies View Relatedi have a problem with double values i need to store in an android homed sqlite database. since these double values represent gps values (lat & lng), i really NEED an absolute precision down to the 9th number after the comma.when reading lng from this table into some (java) double variable, i get a value like "0.999956837" - this renders the values pretty useless to me.is there a way to enforce the precision i need other than storing the values as "text" fields (what would make expensive casts neccessary) or storing them as integers (meaning i need to multiply/divide at each write/read-op)?
View 2 Replies View Relatedi am using android.opengl.GLSurfaceView in my game, which is working well expect under one condition: Starting the game a second time after leaving it by pushing the home button, causes the game to flicker, because the rendering thread from the previous instance is still running and firing OpenGL commands. Now the question is, how can i ensure that only one instance of GLSurfaceView/GLSurfaceView.Renderer gets created?
To solve/workaround the problem i've tried to set the following properties in the manifest file to to ensure the activity gets shut down if it gets inactive.
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:multiprocess="false"
android:noHistory="true">
But without success, the activity/rendering thread still keeps running. Do you know of any certain way to exit the rendering thread/free GLSurfaceView?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello all. I like to cut and splice my video files together to make one movie. I usually do this with Windows movie maker. That program doesn't recognize the .3gp format that the video files are in when I take them off the phone. So, I convert them to .avi. Is there a program that will ensure that the 720p quality is maintained through the conversion to .avi, or is there another format I should be converting them into? I can't remember the program I use now, but it doesn't look like it is staying in 720p quality. After making the complete video on windows movie maker I get an option to export the video in 720p, but if the input video is not 720p, the final output cannot be 720p right?
