i figure it might be an edit to the kernel source code, or something like that. i just don't know where to do that. I know it can be done tho, because i remember having some ROMs on the Epic 4G that had that junk disabled. guess i'll also see if some of those old devs. are still around.
I do not want a lot of these Apps that are Built into my Droid X including:

I have a thread of now, 2800 texts - every text to that person since i got the phone back in november. Now the Eris is very laggy, and deleting the other threads of texts helped, but everytime i try to delete this thread of 2800 (and counting) texts the program crashes and i have to force close it. I am using the OEM eris messages program.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are plannig to write a new music application from scratch. Also we want to uninstall the built-in music application to ensure only our application resides on the phone. adb ls /data/app command doesn't list built-in applications. So, I am unable to uninstall the built in music application without knowing its name. So, I am getting a feeling like built in applications uninstallation is handled in different way.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to build SDK in cygwin from Android 2.2-r1.1 source code, and now I am facing some problems as below:
1. The adb couldn't be built successfully, it seems it couldn't find the header files in /usr/include/w32api/ddk 2. The fastboot also couln't be built 3. After disable adb and fastboot from make_windows_sdk.sh, I counld get the sdk zip file 4. When using this sdk in Eclipse, I got an error "W/ResourceType( 2888): Unable to get buffer of resource asset file" which is related to resource.arsc in android.jar, after replacing that file, the sdk is find in Eclipse (also need to copy adb from downloaded sdk)
Anyone has tried to build sdk in cygwin as well? Would you pls share the methods to fix the problems above?
Has anyone built OpenAL for the Android, or found the shared library for it on the system? This seems like an obvious need for a game of any kind, yet there's no resources out there for it. It seems the Android java sound library can't do pitch changes from what I can tell, so there seems a need for OpenAL. I know OpenAL Soft can be built on top of ALSA, but I'm not sure if anyones done that, and I'm sure it would take me a month.
If there's a good guide somewhere on sound manipulation on the Android without OpenAL, that's fine too. It's just that OpenAL is sort of a standard for game makers and it would be nice to port my thousands of lines over to this system, which I sort of thought was the point of the NDK before I dugg into it and saw that there's almost no shared library access on the system.I hope I can actually port without becoming a java expert myself. Really disliking the NDK so far!

I want to be able to open a pdf file in my app using the android's built in pdf viewer app, but i dont know how to start other apps. I'm sure i have to call start activity, i just dont know how to identify the app im opening and how to pass the file to that specific app.I just learned that the pdf viewer i have on my phone is actually made by HTC and that Adobe just barely released their android pdf viewer (which is great). So the new question is this: how do i verify that the user has installed adobe's viewer, and then how do i open the file in that app from my app?

Is anything available for Android with similar functionality. Opening up a browser to read full articles is so clunky. I'd be willing to pay for one.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with installing an apk (which includes jni libs) on the simulator. The apk is built successfully, but running as Android Application from within eclipse and executing adb install -r path/to/ apk runs also successful, but the app doesn't show up on the app- screen in the simulator. The following is the logcat during the install of the app. I don't see much evidence that there is something wrong with the apk, so I don't know whats going on there. Can someone help me with this? Are there more debugging options for adb install?
View 4 Replies View RelatedFirst of all, sorry for my bad english. I'm new into Android application development, just experimenting with the emulator and the SDK. I have searched with some keywords on the developer group, but i didn't find what i need. I'm searching for classes which with i can do simple audio DSP on locally stored audio files. e.g. i like to do crossfade/overlap on MP3 files, and an overall automatic gain control/ equalization on the realtime mix . As i see i can use the AudioTrack class to send raw PCM data to the audio hardware, so i could implement the DSP in java, but i don't see any way to use the internal decoders to grab decoded PCM frames from encoded audio files (like MP3, OGG, AAC). I thought about using Java decoder implementations like JLayer to do the decoding but that's a very CPU intensive approach which is not good for e.g. a media player application which runs in the background. Is there any classes for using the platforms builtin decoders, or should i "port" some available decoders with NDK to my application?

View 8 Replies View RelatedHere is a couple screens from my EVO. When it warns you to plug in the phone it also has a button to check usage that is built into the phone. Wish somone could build an app directly to this. As the battery was draining (almost dead) I left this screen up (waiting for it to die) total of 13hrs and 20+ min. It does not use any battery to check this. Look at how long it has been unplugged. The BT, Sprint Nav and Beautiful widgets never get killed by my task killer because these are a must for my job. I am a Professional Driver of 21 years and these are needed.
