I'am trying to use a large DB file. It's as big as >8MB. I built it using sqlite3 in Mac OS X, inserted UTF-8 encoded strings (for I am using Korean), added android_meta table with ko_KR as locale, as instructed above.
However, When I debug, it keeps showing IOException at
CODE:..............
I suspect it's caused by trying to read a big file. If not, I have no clue why.
I tested the same code using much smaller text file, and it worked fine.
Can anyone help me out on this? I've searched many places, but no place gave me the clear answer, or good solution. Good meaning efficient or easy.
I will try use BufferedInput(Output)Stream, but if the simpler one cannot work, I don't think this will work either.
Can anyone explain the fundamental limits in file input/output in Android, and the right way around it, possibly?

View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery time I flash a new ROM on my phone, whether it was my old Galaxy S2 or my current Galaxy S4, Google Play recognizes that it is the same device as before and installs all the apps I previously installed on the phone.
My android stick computer (Minix Neo X5) does not behave this way. Every time I flash a new ROM, regardless of whether it is an official ROM from the developer (Minix) or a custom ROM with CWM, Google Play does not recognize that it is the same device as before and I have to go through the arduous process of installing all previous apps.
Is there a file or folder that I could backup on my stick computer and restore after flashing that will let Google Play recognize it properly? build.prop?

I dont how to handle this problem, and i want to know that when we execute that code means where the file will be created.
What's the best way to create a temporary file in Android? Can [File.createTempFile][1] be used? The documentation is very vague about it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if there's any sort of temporary mute app. I'm oftentimes in meetings or on a phone call on speaker phone in my office, and my cell phone starts making all sorts of notification noises, so I'll turn the sound off. Problem is, I forget to turn the sound back on. I'd love an app that lets me tell it to go into silent mode, but come out in, say, 15 minutes. Does it exist?

The error from LogCat: E/PackageInstallationReceiver( 244): Remove /data/local/tmp/my.package.apk Fail! W/System.err( 244): java.io.IOException: Error running exec().
I used adb shell to see whats inside this tmp folder. And there was no such apk. So I renamed another, but the error stays which means, that he never really tries to delete this apk, right? The same code runs fine on the emulator and my Nexus One.
For an example of what I'm looking for, hit the Home button while you're composing a message in the Gmail app. A little message will pop up at the bottom of the screen for a moment that says "Message saved as Draft."
I can't figure out how to display one of those messages myself, and I'm not sure what to call it so I can't do a search for it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am writing a content provider to access data in a zip file. The plan is to extract data as needed to temporary files since the API Requires a file descriptor (as opposed to an input stream). The question is where can an Android app write files - we can assume these are small and regularly purged. I do not believe the /sdcard is required.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently trying to create a buffer for my application which needs to be big!I mean at least 1MB but most likely to be 4MB.Now definitely bad idea to actually allocate this much on a byte array in memory.So the options are put all the data in a file. So question is where do I place this temp file?
Option 1: Store to sdcard. Might be slow and not such a good idea for continuous read/writes?
Option 2: Store to in the apps cache.I read somewhere this is fast for read/ writes. But also read before issues cleaning up the cache after use? I guess I should as if I be able to create a file in cache and discard it when I don't need it? Any tips/look outs from using this methods would be greatly appreciated!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI run Android SDK and AVD Manager in Vista and have problems installing components. The installer downloads components successfully, but at the end of the installation it hangs for about minute and then asks to disable AV software. If I choose 'No', the installer stops with error message like: "Filed to rename directory '...' to '...' ". Thus, I have to unpack downloaded components and place them to proper folders manually. I have no AV software.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a programmatically generated image that I want to send as an attachment via the ACTION_SEND and EXTRA_STREAM method. But how do i do this? My first attempt (writing to my context.getCacheDir() based file path) appeared to work in the Gmail preview (no image preview, but attached file name and icon was visible), but the attachment never arrived on the recipient side. I guess this has something to do with permissions on the generated file, but how to avoid this? Do I need to set more permissive settings on these generated files (so that the Gmail activity can access)? Is that even possible for the app's cache folder?
Is there another file location that would be more suitable to write my files to? I considered the downloads folder, but think it would be an awkward location for something that only needs to exist until it has been emailed. I have even tried encoding my image purely in a data:image/png;base64,ABCD... style URI. This, too, showed up in Gmail preview (attachment icon, but no file name), but did not result in a recipient-side attachment. Has anyone been able to attach a one-shot generated image to an email intent by any means? What options may I have overlooked?
I'm having temporary screen freezes when I want to take out my HTC HD2 with tytung's ICS version. When I press the buttonss they light up but the screen stays black. I can still receive phone calls and connect it to a PC, where the PC recognizes the phone. Sometimes after 20-30 minutes the wakes up like normal when I press a button.

I am trying to play a video in android emulator I have the video in my assets folder as well as the raw folder.But after doing some research still i cant play video in my emulator.i am working on android 2.1 My video format is mp4 so i don't think that should be a problem.Could anyone just give me an example code so that i can understand a bit more?The problem is that the VideoView that I need to display the Video will take only a URI or a File path to point to the Video.If I save the video in the raw or assets folder I can only get an input stream or a file descriptor and it seems nothing of that can be used to initialize the VideoView.
