I've done a search but found nothing. It seems like when I have to force stop an application, it takes me 8-10 button presses to accomplish it (menu-settings-applications-manage applications-sort by size-sort az-find application-scroll down-force stop). It's just not easy. Especially if I'm driving or jogging. Is there a quick and simple way to force stop an application?

Really odd one this. It closes if I type a capital A. Nothing else. All other letters are fine.
The application Internet (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I have factory reset, uninstalled everything, still the same. If I clear the cookies, cache, etc, and remove my homepage of google.co.uk, it seems fine. The T-Mobile default homepage works fine if I type a capital A. If I set Google.co.uk, and type a capital A, it force closes.
Hmm....and after a bit of digging....it only seems to do it on Google Mobile sites. Classic Google.com and .co.uk are fine. Google force loses, as does .com/m.
Anyone have the same issue, or know whats causing this?
If I Force Stop an app (via Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Any App->Force Stop) will the app ever start up automatically again or is the only way to start it up again to have the user start it. I have an app that starts a service. The service registers an alarm I've defined, with the Alarm Manager and this is recieved as expected. In my manifest I've defined a TimerIntentReceiver, to receive that alarm I've defined. If I Force Stop the app then is it possible to have the Alarm Manager "wake" my app up via the TimerIntentReceiver I've defined. I'm not seeing this happen. Once I Force Stop my app it never runs again unless I manually start it. Is there anything I can listen for, apart from BOOT_COMPLETE, to start up my app? Or does the user always have to start all apps.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a service which runs in the background when the user starts using my app. I am using it to do some posts to our server. I always close my service by calling stopSelf as soon as the posts have been made or failed.
But I recently observed two times that my service did not stop. I saw that in the running services in settings on my device that it has been sitting there for over a few hours.
So I was trying to see if I can alternatively set a timer using which I can force the service to stop after a few minutes no matter what.
I just ran into a problem when trying to launch the phone's email app via a button in the options menu because as soon as I click the button in the emulator it causes a force close error.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've read about how task killers aren't necessarily good because of the way they FC apps, so I'm wondering, is it safe to go into my Running Apps list and Force Stop certain apps? I'm thinking of apps like Amazon MP3, Maps, Peep, Facebook, Fandango, etc. General things like that, nothing system-important.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm designing an HTML page for display in Android browsers. Consider this simple example page:
<html>
<head><title>Simple!</title>
</head>
<body>
<p><img src="http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png"></p>
</body>
</html>
It looks just fine on the standard HVGA phones (320x480), but on HDPI WVGA sizes (480x800 or 480x854) the built-in browser automatically scales the image up; it looks ugly.
I've read that I should be able to use this tag to force the browser to stop scaling my page:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=1.0; minimum-scale=1.0; user-scalable=0;" />
... but all that does is disable user scaling (the zoom buttons disappear); it doesn't actually prevent the browser from scaling my image. Adjusting the scale factors (setting them all to 2.0 or 0.5) has no effect at all.
How can I force the WVGA browser to stop scaling my images?
A few weeks ago I switched my EVO 4G to the standard Android 2.1 UI through the widely publicized "clear defaults" and "force stop", then pressing "Home" and selecting to default to the Android launcher. This worked very well. Unfortunately for me, I thought this was just going to be a test drive. I wanted to see how it compared to Sense UI, but now I can't figure out how to re-activate Sense. According to the description of the process for other Android phones with Sense, you are supposed to be able to turn Sense back on by doing essentially the same process. Select application "HTC Sense", and do "clear defaults" and "force stop" again. Then press the Home button, and select to default to Sense UI when asked.
This doesn't work on my EVO 4G. When I perform these steps, pressing the Home button has no effect. There is no popup asking which UI to use as default. The standard Android UI remains in effect. I've done a fair amount of google searching, but haven't seen any explanation how to do this so far. I'm hoping that it's possible without wiping the phone back to its initial state. Anyone know how to restore Sense? I'd like to experiment with it, at least until the day Froyo comes out for it.
On both 2.1 & 2.2 I have found that occasionally the browser progress bar will only get 90% before becoming getting stuck. You can try as many times as you like to view the page but it will always get stuck.The only way I have found to cure this is to force stop the internet app, then everything is fine again. Anyone else seen this or know how to stop it occurring?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThere are several ways to terminate an app or to "clear cache". What are the differences between them?
Here are some I have been using without deeper understanding:
- Long press middle button and swiping out one app
- App manager: Clear cache, clear data, force stop
- Restart phone
- Use task manager app to kill app in question
Has anyone been having this trouble lately? I've tried clearing out old messages and clearing the cache but yet it still force closes on almost every picture while resizing it.

View 8 Replies View RelatedFastest 2D frame rate possible with android NDK, my try included, better options available?
I used the NDK and OpenGL ES 2.0 to display a frame as a texture on a GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP. This was done on a HTC Desire, same hardware as Nexus One. I tried to load multiple GL_RGBA textures and switch between the textures, because the normal fill rate with a single texture was disappointingly low:
CODE:.........................
I think even 30.32 fps RGBA is still too slow.
So is this the way to go to achieve the fastest 2D frame rate (with same quality)?
Any suggestions to speed it up?
Here is the relevant code, it is based on the hello-gl2 NDK example:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working on an app that fetches localized data from the Web based on the user's long/lat. Currently I am querying the system for the best enabled provider [my criteria defines best basically as most precise--not sure if this is the best idea for my application, as at the point where I fetch data it really doesn't matter if the user is here or 3 miles from here.].. But anyhow, I'm curious as to what is most reliably the fastest Location provider? Network or GPS? My app hangs a bit "Acquiring your location" on my loading screen and I'd like to cut this wait time down as much as possible.
View 17 Replies View RelatedI have a file that contains about 200,000 long values that I want to read as fast as possible into a long[]. It's for an Android app; function calls are slow (so anything involving reading a long at a time with a "for" loop will be super slow) and I need loading to be fast. What can I use? Everything I look at seems to read only bytes fast.
I've used ByteBuffer and FileChannel from the NIO package before and this seems a really fast way to load arrays of values from files. However, I cannot work out how to use this to read data into a long[]. I've tried wrapping a long[] as a LongBuffer, but I cannot see any way I can feed data from a file into a LongBuffer.
Edit: Whatever method I use, I need to be able to use Arrays.binarySearch on the long[] array at the end.
hello, i have a gles based game that takes quite some time to load because of the huge amount of textures.

There are several apps that a user create various files from an Android (textual documents, audio recordings, photos, links) and store them on a website where they can be accessed later from a desktop computer.
I am looking for a way to do the reverse.
I do a lot of data gathering from my desktop computer. I copy large amounts of text and links and paste them into either a .txt or .rtf file.
What would be a simple method to send a .txt or .rft file from my desktop directly to my SD card AND create a shortcut link for it either on my Android desktop or in system folder somewhere that I can have a desktop shortcut to?
I realize the solution might seem obvious, but while I am using my Android to view Google docs, or Evernote, or Snaptic it is not apparent to me how I can simply pull the document from the web and store it on my phone for quick access.
I have tons of .txt and .rtf files that I would like to permantly store on my SD card, so whatever quick method you know of will be uber helpful.

For example, BufferedOutputStream seems as if it should make things faster but I'm unsure the buffer size should be set for. Specifically, I want to read/write byte arrays that are ~1Mb in size as quickly as I can.
