Just wondering which mobile device should i target first for my application after a bit googling i found Android dev phone 1 and android developer phone 2 but does this device have or support Android 2.1 ? Or can i target some other device like motorola droid for my development and testing ? What would be the pros and cons in this situation?

I looked at internet, they said I should run "Android SDK and AVD manager", I runed it but get follow message: Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml, reason: No route to host: connect
I read this group's conversation that suggest to use http not https, I tried it but still can not run Available Packages.
What are the differences between building for target 2 (no gmaps add on) and target 3 (with gmaps addon).
Could any one has the ant scripts to bulids for these targets.
I see 1.5 SDK does these though custom ant tasks rather than 1.1 ant scripts (this was more clear and apperant on how it does the build)
I'm looking to get a device (phone, tablet, etc.) for developing Android applications. I know I can use the emulator to get me started, but I feel like that will only get me so far along. I'm looking for something reasonably priced, and I don't want a phone contract, data plan, etc. Anyone have any suggestions?

I would like to start doing some Android development, and would like a cheap device to deploy apps to, just for testing and demo purposes. Is it possible to deploy apps to, for instance, an Archos 28? I don't know much about Android development yet, and haven't found a good answer to this question elsewhere.

when I type % adb devices List of devices attached HT845GZ50600 offline
I am using: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)
Few things I tried:
1. I have changed the 50-android.rules file and reloaded the udev. [ as suggested by docs] 2. 51-android.rules ( if there was another 50 then this would have worked) and it worked for some users [ diff thread in the forum] .
2. I also killed adb server and restarted it.
3. It works on Windows, but I want to develop on Ubuntu ( and curious why it doesnt work).
Trying to set up my eclipse envirnment to actually be able to try some things out on android...
I've installed the sdk, put it in my path variable, installed the ADT, downloaded the "developer tools" from the eclpise menu..
But... Then I go to the command line, navigate to the tools folder of my sdk, and run "android create avd --target 2 --name mine"
and I get this "error":
Error: Target id is not valid. Use 'android.bat list targets' to get the target ids.
So, I of course happily run the 'android.bat list targets' and get the following message!
"Available Android Targets:"
That's it. There are no targets.... I open the AVD window in eclipse, there are no targets... I click "New" in that window, and a target is required, but the drop down is disabled because there are NO AVD TARGETS.
I'm really new at this. I'm following the book "Android" by O'Reilly press a little outdated, I'm using Pulsar for Mobile Java Developers. Build id: 20090920-1017 I go to File, New Project, Android, Android Project. I enter "Hello World" for Project Name. Then I get "An SDK Target must be specified." There is a check box but it says "no target specified". How do I get this resolved and how do I get to the command line?

I'm trying to create an AVD, but I don't have any target ID's available. If I enter "android list targets" at the command prompt in the tools directory, I get an empty list.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhile trying to create a new Android Project., Get a error - An SDK Target must be specified. The documentation states that - "Under Target, select an Android target to be used as the project's Build Target. The Build Target specifies which Android platform you'd like your application built against." However in my case The Build Target section of the open dialog does not contain any text field or select dropdown, so I am not able to specify anything.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe want to build a smartphone app which uses geolocation, etc. and target the most important smartphones. Which OS would you support for a b2c application? I found a german statistic here: http://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/150842/umfrage/prognostizierte-marktanteile-der-smartphone-betriebssysteme-in-2013/ which forecasts the smartphone usage for 2013. To summarize it lists the following OS, ordered by priority:
Symbian, Android, Blackberry (RIM), Windows Mobile, iPhone
Would you agree with this priority or should we start with the classical: iPhone/Android combo?
my goal is to target with a keyevent a specific application running either in foreground or background from a background service. I tried many solutions, but have not yet managed to do it. The few solutions tried (all from a background running service): With a broadcast, I tried to target the first application (for example the phone app) that would manage the key event
KeyEvent lKey1Up = new KeyEvent(KeyEvent.ACTION_UP,KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENDCALL);
KeyEvent lKey1Dwn = new KeyEvent(KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN,KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENDCALL);
Intent lKey1UpIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON);
Intent lKey1DwnIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON);
lKey1UpIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_KEY_EVENT, lKey1Up);
lKey1DwnIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_KEY_EVENT, lKey1Dwn );
sendOrderedBroadcast(lKey1UpIntent, null);
sendOrderedBroadcast(lKey1DwnIntent, null);
=> Nothing happens with my foreground phone app when the broadcast is performed while I am in a phone call state (OFFHOOK). Indeed, I was nearly sure this would not work since I have no way to specificely target the phone app.............
I want to set in project properties build target 2.2 (api level 8) In the manifest.xml <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="4"/> is declared. Did anybody tried, if any user (with min. Android 1.5) see application in the market? Could some other problems occur because of different SDK for building and in manifest?!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have developed two separate applications 1) android 2.1 that takes user input / registers , shared pref and stuff and 2) Google Maps GPS on target Google APIs 7. Now, I would like to embed the second project in first . That is, after the user registers it will bring up Maps and suggestions and stuff. How can I use both the targets (Apis ) together in a single App?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP to launch an activity in my app. It has one feature I don't want though - it restarts the target intent, instead of just resuming it. Example history stack, with activity D making the call to B with that flag:
A B C D
new stack
A B
But 'B' gets relaunched, its onCreate() method is called. Since B is already in the history stack, is there a way I can use this flag, but have it *not* recreate B, just onResume() it again? The reordering flags are kind of what I need too, but they won't pop C and D, just reshuffle the stack so B comes to the top, but I want C and D to go away.
From the Android SDK and AVD Manager it is possible to add an extra Add-on Site URL.
I'd like to have some starting point or documentation about developing and distributing add-ons so I can distribute an SDK for my own target device.
I am not able to select build target when i create new project in android eclipse on mac system.
I have installed eclipse-java-cocoa 32 bit version and ADT-0.96 version. This was a fresh installation and i also installed AVD and SDK Manager and have created 2 avd's.
I tried creating bash profile. Even then i am not able to select build target,,the targets are not visible at all. I have attached image to show how it looks in eclipse.
i recently installed eclipse 3.5.2, sdk platform andoid 1.6, api 4 revision 4 and google APIs by google inc. i also set the path for sdk. but everytime i tried clicking the new android project, the build target and project doesn't show up. the only thing that appears is the 'Project Name', 'the location', and the working set.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm configuring a new machine for Android development and moving my current project over. I did a fresh install of all the Android tools and SDKs, and under "build targets", the Google APIs' target supports Android 2.2. Of course I need 1.5 as the base build target. My project doesn't build when I select that because the Google Maps stuff from maps.jar isn't there. In fact, after I did my full install I can't find maps.jar anywhere on my new machine. Is this jar file still required for Google Maps integration, or is it history? I'm using Eclipse 3.5. I guess I'd presume there would be a "google apis" for Android 1.5 build target. I'm thinking my install must be hosed; but maybe it's my understanding.. :)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an application that I developed using the Android 1.1 SDK that I am trying to port to Android 1.5. In my application, I record a sound through the microphone and then do various things with it, including playing it back using a MediaPlayer object. My code works fine when I use the 1.1 target, but when I use a 1.5 target I get this error when setting up the player:
Command PLAYER_SET_DATA_SOURCE completed with an error or info PVMFErrNotSupported error (1, -4) Couldn't setup MediaPlayer java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0x1 at android.media.MediaPlayer.prepare(Native Method) at org.byu.chum.AudioUtils.AudioRecording.stopRecording (AudioRecording.java:92) at org.byu.chum.SoundRecorder.Recorder$StopListener.onClick (Recorder.java:198)...
It seems like Android isn't liking the format of my media, but I don't know why, since I just recorded that very format on the Android device. Here's the code that is throwing the error:
player = new MediaPlayer();
try { player.setDataSource(recordFile.toString());
player.prepare(); } catch (IOException e) { Log.e("playRecording", "Couldn't setup MediaPlayer", e); }
