I've 20-25 items in my List, if i checked first check box, scroll down, then come up, my checked status lost (becomes unchecked), in cursor adaptor. If i use base adaptor problem is resolved but major issue with base adaptor is performance, if my list goes beyond the 100 items.

So when I currently use a broadcast receiver to listen for the state changes in Wifi, so when this recieves an intent I want to be able to send this info on to my service. Is this possible and if so the correct way to do it?

I am wanting to programmaticaly set the state of the enable flag for WiFi Hotspot Tethering in Froyo. Something like this:
boolean isEnabled = Settings.System.getInt(context.getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.SOME_WIFI_TETHER_FLAG, 0) == 1;
// toggle HOTSPOT mode
Settings.System.putInt(context.getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.SOME_WIFI_TETHER_FLAG_ON, isEnabled ? 0 : 1);
// Post an intent to reload
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.SOME_WIFI_TETHER_FLAG_CHANGED);
intent.putExtra("state", !isEnabled);
sendBroadcast(intent);
Is there a programmatic flag for turning off wifi hotspot mode in 2.2 from Settings.System class?
We have a very patchy wi-fi network here. The wi-fi router's pretty old and I tend to need to switch it off and on every couple of days. Is there an app I can use that will - perhaps in conjunction with Locale so it only runs when I'm in the office - periodically check if our wi-fi connection is up and running?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a compound UI component built up from a ViewGroup containing a number of TextView, ImageView etc. components. Many of these have StateListDrawables as their images/backgrounds. Is there any way of making them select from this drawable based on the state of the parent ViewGroup rather than the component itself? Ideally I want to be able to change the visual state of all children of the ViewGroup (text colour, image etc) based on the state of the ViewGroup, preferably without having to hook up complex logical code. This seems like a fairly common sort of requirement, so I was hoping it would be straightforward in Android - am I going to be disappointed?

I'm a little confused by what I'm seeing with regards to phone state transitions via the PhoneStateListener. When I receive a call, this is what happens: (call comes in) RINGING -> IDLE (I pick up) OFFHOOK (I hang up) IDLE It's that first transition from RINGING to IDLE without any interaction from me (not ending the call, not answering the call) that confuses me. Do I really have to implement an idle counter to know that an incoming call has really ended? Seems like the reported phone state represents some sort of phone state that isn't the obvious one.Is this a bug or am I just not in tune with the paradigm here?

When I use the program "mail" on my Eris and input my email and password it automatically uses an imap server. I notice that on the imap server I cannot use WiFi to check my email. When I use the Yahoo mail as a pop server it works perect on WiFi. I don't understand the difference. Which is better imap or pop?

It did when I first got the phone, but now if I turn on wifi and try to connect to it the phone doesn't even try and it just stays at a "disconnected" state. Any ideas why this is? I will be trying it on a different wifi connection later, but nothing has changed for my wifi connection so I am not sure why it just randomly stopped working.

It states that enabling this will "require more battery plus view of sky"
When checked, it states "deselect to conserve battery"
So, the question is, should this be enabled?
I imagine for some applications, knowing your precise location should be useful, especially if the turn-by-turn maps are installed and used.
I'm thinking to deselect this, and selecting it at times when I need it.
So, to check or not to check?

View 2 Replies View Relatedcan someone helpme out with how to save state of the app when the screen orientation is changed i read the development guide at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html#HandlingTheChange
But i dont know how to define the method collectMyLoadedData();
I have an app that runs in the background indefinitely provided there is work to be done. I want the app to go to sleep if there is no work to be done and the user is idle. The second part has me stumped. On Windows Mobile I was able to poll the power state to determine user idleness. On BlackBerry I was able to poll the device idle time. However, there does not appear to be a way to determine user idleness on Android.
Instead of polling for user idleness directly, I thought I might be able to use the on/off state of the screen. There are 2 intents ACTION_SCREEN_OFF and ACTION_SCREEN_ON and I was able to setup a listener for these (BroadcastReceiver). The problem is that I do not know how to determine the current state of the screen at the time I register the listener, therefore I have to wait until the next screen on/off change to know anything. The docs speak of some intents that are "sticky" and thus will allow the current state to be determined, but the screen events do not appear to have that property. What am I to do?
In general, I find the lack of support for polling system state properties (e.g. screen state, power state, signal strength) in Android to be annoying. It's cool that one can listen for changes in system state rather than constantly polling for them, but one still needs to know the current state of the property at the time the listener is registered.
I need to save some state when the user leaves my game during game play. Saving the state doesn't seem to be an issue, but I can't figure out how to restore it. The onCreate function isn't called when the Activity is resumed (only when it is first created), so I can't get my state back there. Logically, I would use onRestoreInstanceState, but it isn't being called.
CODE:..........
I see log output from onSaveInstanceState, onResume, onCreate, etc, but I never see a log message from onRestoreInstanceState and savedState is always null. Why isn't onRestoreInstanceState being called, and is there another way to get my state back?
My business partner and I have a small disagreement, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to resolve it. First, I should say I started out his way, and switched after reviewing a lot of applications. The background is this -- we have an app, with some controls which can be locked. A lock/unlock icon is put next to the lockable controls. You can long-click the icon, and it brings up a context menu with several items, including the item for the lock state.Currently, it brings up a "Locked [X]" or "Locked [ ]" item -- that is, a menu item with a checkbox that can be checked or unchecked, and the lock state is changed accordingly.He would like me to change it to reflect the action being taken. I.e. the menu item would say "Lock" if it is currently unlocked, and "Unlock" if it is currently locked.It would be acting as a toggle in either case; the only difference is how it is presented to the user.

I write this code in onCreate of the activity. The problem is when I switch activity using startActivity, and come back to the calling activity (using startActivity) then onCreate is called again. I see onPause, onStop called when I call other activity. Is there any way that I can save the application's state?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere is know problem in all the Android phones. Go to Bluetooth Settings->Turn ON bluetooth->Click on bluetooth discovery->Then timer will start in summary->Long press on Bluetooth device discovery-> observe Bluetooth ON/OFF title start to toggle with Bluetooth Discovery toggle. I analyzed the issue. Blueooth ON/OFF is CheckBoxPreference. Bluetooth Discovery is also CheckBoxPreference which has dependency on Bluetooth ON/OFF. When we click on Bluetooth discovery then On thread will run at every second to update summary in Bluetooth Discovery preference. When we change the Bluetooth discovery to OFF then thread will be removed/ killed. When i press the Bluetooth discovery for long time when its already in ON State then still the thread will be updating the summary (remaining time from 120 to 00) till i press it. When i leave the Thread will stop. As it has dependency on Bluetooth ON/OFF, its making to the title invisible. But it should not happen. Solution: When i touch the Device Discovery i should kill the update summary thread then i guess, that problem will be solved. But in prefence i dont have any listener to know the pressed state. I hope somebody can give me solution.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI understand how to save an application's state by using SharedPreferences, onSavedInstanceState() & onRestoreInstanceState(), etc as outlined in a similar post ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/151777/how-do-i-save-an-android-applications-state ), but how do I save the last activity?
To be more specific, my application starts up and goes to a login screen. Once a user logs in and navigates through several activities, lets say he or she leaves the app using the home button or in some other way. Next time the user starts the app, it will go back to the login screen and do a login again. Instead, I want the app to start up and go to the last activity that was on top of the stack when the user left the app in the previous session.
How is the last activity saved so that it can be restored on app startup?
Yes, I can get sensor update events with SensorEventListener. But this approach has 2 drwwbacks:
1) For some sensors I have to wait for the state to update. For example, temperature may update after a minute!
2) In some cases I can get incorrect readings. For example, the phone lies on a flat surface and does not move. I receive first orientation update event after listener registration. When only a part of the orientation vector changes, other parts may be 0. And it is no way to determine, is it a true 0 degree azimuth or just an incomplete vector. If I move the phone a little, the correct non-zero azimuth appears.
To solve this problems it's possible to create a separate thread that constantly monitors sensors. After some time it will certainly contain true values. But I think that it is an overhead for such simple task.
Is it any other way to get current sensor data?
