Android :: Application For Network Type Icon In Status Bar
Apr 10, 2009
In 1.5, I find an icon in status bar to indicate current network type (2G or 3G). Would you please tell me which app sets this icon in status bar? I'd like to go through the source code.

i know you can put notifications in the status bar, but i dont want to do that, i want to put an ICON when my application is running, also in background (home key pressed or something like that) i mean that is not a notification icon, it's just an icon showing that my application is OK, like battery icon, or hour icon..., or alarm icon i can't find any information about how to do this

I need some advices about the Android OS and application.i wonder if the Android OS is able to push network connecting status to applications.(I found applications can get a network connecting status from android OS. But I can't find reverse cases.)However, I am thinking android OS may push network connecting status to applications.when application is installed on android os, is it possible to register something for monitoring phone's network status on android os.Because I want my application can receive phone's network status from android os.(not by asking directly to android os.) It means: when phone's network status changes, does android os automatically informs phone's network status to application?I'm sorry my English writing is bad TT;

I have been looking at the ConnectivityManager class documented at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/ConnectivityManage... .
I would like to know if an Android application can open a network connection (socket) on a specified network interface [on a device supporting multiple network interface types WiFi, Cellular, WiMax etc] ? I am looking for the capability for an application to open a socket on a given type of network for example over WiFi network or over 3G Cellular Data network.
If this is possible in Android, how would I code this requirement within the API Framework ? The ConnectivityManager enables an application to learn about available network connections and currently categorises them as either TYPE_WIFI or TYPE_MOBILE.
There is a member function in the ConnectivityManager class called requestRouteToHost(int,int) [url] which "Ensure that a network route exists to deliver traffic to the specified host via the specified network interface. An attempt to add a route that already exists is ignored, but treated as successful." Sounds like this would install an IP routing table entry to reach a given host via a specified network interface type (WiFi or Mobile). After calling this would it be sufficient for an application to open a socket and connect to the desired destination address ?
Or perhaps the application needs to bind() a socket to a local address of a network interface of the desired type (WiFi or Mobile) Or by setting a socket-level socket option of SO_DONTROUTE ?

I seem to be seeing an issue with the data network access on the EVO. When it happens none of my applications get internet aceess and my mobile network status says "turning on". The only way I've found to fix it is to pull the battery. Any one else seeing this? If so is there a better fix than pulling the battery?

How do you detect the network connection type on Android?
Is it through ConnectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo().getType(), and the answer is limited to Wifi and mobile?

Is there a way to have one status bar icon, but multiple entries in the notification pull down? I need to generate a few notifications that each trigger a different action when clicked, but I don't want to fill the status bar with useless icons in the process. Being able to create a notification without an icon at all would work too.

I want to place an icon in the status bar when my service is started. I know how to send notifications to the status bar, but what I want is to show only an icon at the right, like the WIFI icon when WIFI is on, the antenna icon when "GoogleMaps" is on, etc. My service will send notifications to the status bar when needed, but also I want the user to know that the service is running placing an icon at the right. Is that possible?

I wanted to create a notification without the icon in the status bar (the state that is not expanded). I tried the custom expanded view and set the icon for this view only. But it did not work. When I give 0 as icon to the constructor, the icon disappears but notification also does not appear in the expanded view.
Notification notification = new Notification(0, "", 0); I tried a lot of combinations but didn't come out with a solution. By the way, I know it is working because I saw this feature in some apps. Thanks.

Notification and NotificationManager are used to create icons to be placed on the top-left position of the screen. A Notification also need to have an entry on the status bar pull-down.
However, icons on the right side such as the battery, signal strength, wireless indicators do not need any entry on the status bar.
How do I make such icons without any entry in the status bar pull-down?

I am not receiving voicemail notifications. I am not using GV, just the Sprint service. I am not getting the little cassette looking icon or any other indicator that I have voicemail. Have not received any visual voicemails either. I do get the missed call notification. If I call my voicemail there are messages waiting.
Did some digging on the forum and found other voicemail issues, but not this one, at least with my word combos. I unchecked and checked the notification option under voicemail to see if this would jump start it.

I am writing an app that connects to a telnet server via wifi. I have a service that manages the socket connection. It all works fine, but when the phone sleeps it disconnects the wifi radio, which causes the socket connection to break (and throws a SocketException). I feel like I should be able to set up a a broadcast receiver whose onResume() method is called when the wifi network connection is lost, and that would allow me to gracefully shut down the socket, and re-open it if the network is immediately re-connected. But I can't find anything like that in the doc or via searching.

Android developers can check this code to check the network status on wifi and 3g mobile
You need the following permission to get status view source print? 1 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses- permission> 2 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"></uses- permission>

I would like to have the cell network type displayed while I am connected to WiFi in the status bar signal cluster. Currently, once you connect to WiFi, the LTE, H, E, etc, go away; I'd like them to stay.
I can move the WiFi icon over to make room for the type icon (LTE, H, E, etc) just by deleting "android:layout_marginRight="-6.0dip"" at the end of the "id/wifi_combo" line in res/layout/signal_cluster_view.xml in SystemUI.apk.
Where is the function that turns off that cell type icon when WiFi is connected in SystemUI.apk? I know the system can detect the type of network whilst WiFi is connected, it's just a matter for forcing that icon to stay displayed.
I am trying this on Cyanogenmod 11.

Does anyone know if Sprint has a website to view the status of network issues? My Evo has no data now in Boulder CO and I was wondering if it is my phone or the Sprint network.

I have placed an icon on the status bar. I would like to run a method of another class whenever the user selects that icon. I've seen similar functionality used in volume icons that sit on the status bar that allow a user to raise or lower the volume when the icon is clicked. However, these icons are on the right side of the status bar, and from what I've seen, I'm not allowed to put an icon there. I don't know if that kind of functionality is available to left side icons. So basically, I'm looking for how to run a function when a status bar icon is clicked. I don't want to open an activity, I just want to run a function.

You know what I'm talking about: for example when you get multiple new emails the notification icon in the status bar is augmented with a little red circle that contains number of unread mails. Twitroid has the same icon. Any idea how it's done? I don't think (or so I hope) there are 10000 similar icons. Is this red circle generated and overlaid the notification icon?

Whenever I type online whether its attempting to compose a myspace response or a general response on a message board like this, I experience annoying lag. I'm sure I'm not the only one, at least I hope I'm not, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't like that in the beginning. My question is, is this a network type thing? Or is it a memory/space type thing. I'm 90% on the wifi, and I would hope its a network thing because the lag online is becoming really annoying.
