Android :: Modes Connectivity Device Identification & Device Inter Communication?

May 28, 2010

Can someone explain a couple of very simple concepts to me - I'm interested in mobile devices running android and how they are identified over networks. Some scenarios: Device is connected over WiFi - presumably the device has a standard IP address as with any host and can communicate with any other android host over TCP/IP (assuming it knows the participating device's IP? device is connected over bluetooth - how are devices identified in this case? device is connected over mobile operator's network - this is the one I'm interested in and confused by - is there anyway for two or more devices to discover each other and communicate via the mobile operator's network? How does a device communicate with a backend server in this scenario? In other words, how do apps and devices communicate when not connected to a WiFi network?

Android :: Device Orientation / Mapping Device Y To Screen Y

Oct 30, 2009

How do I map the device Y axis to the screen Y axis?I can't figure this out.I'm the developer of Tricorder, and I'm trying to make it so that the accelerometer and magnetometer indicators I draw always point in the right direction.On the G1 phone with the slider closed, all is well.But when I open the slider, I end up showing that gravity is pulling me to the left (if the phone is held with the display vertical).So, I know that the device, and hence sensor, Y axis is always in the direction of the earpiece; and the screen Y axis changes when I open the slider.And I know that I can use remapCoordinateSystem() to change the device axes to match the screen axes.But where do I find out what the device's orientation is?In other words, how do I compute the correct values for the X and Y parameters to remapCoordinateSystem()?

Configuration.orientation seems quite useless.Suppose it is set to LANDSCAPE.What does this mean?Does it mean a device which is "naturally" portrait (i.e. the sensor Y axis points to the narrow end), and which has been turned into landscape mode?If so, which way was it turned?Or does it mean a device which is naturally landscape?In other words, LANDSCAPE could mean that the screen axis is off from the sensor axis by +90, 0, OR -90 degrees.Not much help.So how do I do this?Obviously I want my app to work on all devices, not just the G1 phone.

Android :: How To Write App To Connect Device To Host USB GPS Device

Oct 29, 2010

I have a standalone GPS enabled data recorder in my car that can function as either a USB host or device. (Its a class 0x00h USB device). I currently connect to it via a WM 6.5 app running on my Palm Treo 750. I would like to port my WM 6.5 app to an Android phone. (I don't have a specific Android phone in mind, I would like it to be as generic as possible).Replicating the GUI is not that difficult, but I am having trouble getting started on the USB communication. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me towards an example, or the appropriate tutorial.

Android :: Device Chooser Device Not Showing Up

Feb 13, 2010

I'm using the android plugin for eclipse, and when I try to run my program using a real device through the android device chooser, my phone is not listed as a device. I have updated eclipse and all of the android packages, but it still isn't showing up. My phone is running 1.6, which is also the target version listed in the eclipse project.Also, the reason I decided to try testing on a real device is because the emulator doesn't seem to be working right anymore when I run my project. The emulator launches, but the program never does. Any ideas?(using windows 7/t-mobile mytouch 3g)

Android :: Detect The Usb Device

Dec 11, 2009

I have ported the Android to a x86 platform. And i want to detect the USB plug-in.But follow the information about the android.intent.action.MEDIA_MOUNTED in the SDK's DOC, i can't receive the event of the USB's plug-in. i have checked my code and it can receive the other event ( ps:intent action) .

Besides, in the CLI, i could mount the USB device to /sdcard but it couldn't mount automatically. have seen some source code about the mount and mountlistener and it should be effective. my SDK's version is 1.5.

Android :: Is There Way To Get / Set Generic Device Name?

Nov 4, 2010

Is there a way to get/set a generic device name ? My app will offer the user an option to use the same app on several devices and they will be aware of each other through server. 1) Is there anything in the APIs to allow me to fetch some kind of friendly device name (cannot be OS/model since user might have the same on both devices) ? 2) AFAICT the only option is to use Bluetooth name but how can I fetch my device name in code?(and it's a nag do explain the user to use bluetooth just to set the name of the device)

Android :: Need A Device That Can Have Synchronization With A PC

Apr 12, 2010

Have been following Android news for some time and finally I decide that this platform is the on to love.Now the hardest part is deciding. Right now I am torn between HTC Legend, the upcoming Galaxy S, or Xperia X10.What I need:
1. A device that can have synchronization with a PC and/or internet storage to store contacts
2. Multimedia player. Preferrable able to play MP4, MKV, or AVI files (with Divx and Xvic odecs). Can be native software or third parties.
3. 3.5mm audio out jacks
4. Shipped with handsfree accesories.
5. Can play good games.
6. Can read and edit office documents
7. Agenda software with alerts and such.
8. Loud speaker.
9. Camera must be there. I don't care how crappy, it's just need to be there.
10. Flash that can be used as torchlight. Not a must, but it's not to have (my Siemens S75 has one, and have been very very usable and durable!)

Android :: Can't Connect To SPP Device

Mar 18, 2010

I currently run android 1.5 on a HTC magic. I'm trying to communicate from my phone to a bluetooth device that supports SPP. I can't seem to be able to connect to the device. I have tryed two ways to connect: 1- via the official 2.0 API using the backport-android to make it work on android 1.5 2- via the unofficial bluetooth api 0.3 Both method give me an error around the same connection process. ith API 2.0, I can discover devices and pair with them. Then i create a socket which seems to work, but when I use the .connect() method, I get this error in CatLog: IOException Unable to start Service Discovery. This is related to doSdp() in public class BluetoothSocket.Searching the web, it seems this error is related to a wrong UUID ... but I am using the SPP UUID properly. So, I thought the problem could be backport android, so I tried with the unofficial API from Gerdavax ( http://code.google.com/p/android-bluetooth/To connect to a device with this API you first create a socket, then you connect using the .openSocket( port number) method. The weird thing is, if I try with a new port, it connects, if I try a second time, it wont work, unless I change the port. I get a similar related error of SDP. Code...
