Is there something like a an Android file explorer so that the application could be installed from an SD card on versions older than 2.2 if the signed .apk file was manually copied onto the SD card? (Kind of like installing from a web page.)

Could the photos be too large since the Nikon is 12mp camera? I wanted to load one as my wallpaper but it never loaded so I'm thinking perhaps I need to crop all these photos in Photoshop before loading it.I want to use the SD card to show family photos (in a slideshow mode) to friends, and studio photography work to potential clients.Also, I was using the standard photo icon to view the photos, is there something that works better?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am making an app for Android, in my Activity I need to load an array of about 10000 strings. Loading it from database was slow, so I decided to put it directly into one .java file (as a private field). I have about 20 of these classes containing string arrays and my question is, are all the classes loaded into memory after my application is started? If so the Activity in which I need these strings would be loaded quickly, but the application as a whole would have a slow start...
Is there other way, how to very quickly load an 10000 string array from a file?
UPDATE:
Why I need these strings? My Android app allows you to find "journeys" in Prague's public transit - you choose departure stop, arrival stop and it finds your journey (have a look here). My app has a suggestions feature - you enter leter "c" as your departure stop and a suggestions ListView appears with stops starting with "c". For these suggestions I need the strings. Fetching the suggestions from database is slow (about 400ms on G1).
I have a huge UI, in which I have about 300 to 500 rows of data (Horizontal Linear Layout), with each row containing 3 to 4 views. If I load all the UI at once, it takes a long time. How best I can display this UI?

I have an activity that loads and displays images from the SDCard. I create a new AVD, specify the desired image of the sd card (which has all my pictures already loaded), specify that AVD for deployment, and start the application. I noticed a strange behavior. At first, the images are not loaded; the getView method is never called, although the constructor of my adapter is called. If I close the application, and open the Gallery app that comes pre-installed, I see that the sd card folder has the correct number of images, and it 'displays' the first four. If I start my application again, those four images are displayed, and only those. If I go back to the Gallery application, open the sd card folder so that it loads all images, and restart my application, all images are successfully displayed. Any reason why this happens? I am using version 1.6, and (part of) my code is below: Code...

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an Android application that works off of a smaller database, around 300 entries. To view the database, I have created a custom view that contains individual rows of data. Then I query the database, and add each line to a newly created custom view.
The problem is that it takes a little white for all of this to be created/loaded, so when you open the application, it sits for a few seconds.
How can I load one line of data, then display it, then the next, append it, etc.?
I have an extended BaseAdapter in a ListActivity: private static class RequestAdapter extends BaseAdapter{ and some handlers and runnables defined in it
CODE:.......
In the getView function of the Adapter, I'm getting the view like this:

and the image is getting loaded this way:

Now, the problem I'm having is that if there are more items that need to display the same picture, not all of those pictures get displayed. When you scroll up and down the list maybe you end up filling all of them.
When I tried the commented out line (holder.avatar.setImageBitmap...) the app sometimes force closes with "only the thread that created the view can request...". But only sometimes.
My pictures and documents on my SD card are far more important than any text message or calendar entries I have on my phone. Just wondering if there's anyway to remotely wipe the SD card as well.

View 1 Replies View RelatedDue to overwhelming user complaints I have decided try allowing users of my Android application to move it to the SD card as per the official documentation. However, a core feature of my application requires a background service to be continuously running. When someone who has moved my app to their SD card mounts their SD card for whatever reason, my background service will be killed.
That's all okay by me, as long as I can restart the service at the first available opportunity. Unfortunately, despite the install-location guide claiming I can use the Broadcast Intent ACTION_EXTERNAL_APPLICATIONS_AVAILABLE to detect when the SD card is remounted locally, the documentation for that flag itself, this newsgroup discussion, and my own testing show that this broadcast is not delivered to the applications which become available. Only applications which have not been moved to the SD card get the Broadcast Intent. Is there any way to restart my background service without waiting for the user to open my app after the SD card is remounted?
Does anybody know how to transfer apps from internal memory to the sd card?
