I found this code for Android timers.
CODE:.......
I need to understand one thing... the comments say that this method runs in the same thread as the Ui does it mean that this method will keep running even when the screen is turned off or the activity is pushed to the background for eg. in case of an incoming phone call ?

I have an android application which has a service running. After 20 mins from that service and other systems (such as GPS) starting I would like it to automaticly stop. I assume I need to use a Timer for that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere are few built in ways to invoke a timer using the Android stack, A good example is the Chronometer. (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/Chronometer.html) I would like to integrate piece of code (A thread)that implements timer using the Thread.sleep() method. I plan to have a Service tat invoke this thread and communicate with it. Are there any disadvantages of using the sleep() method over Chronometer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a TimerTask task calling a function onTimerComplete() in its run()
onTimerComplete() looks something like this:
CODE:...............
I make a Timer t and I schedule the TimerTask with t.schedule(task, 2000);
The problem is, when the timer is up and the task runs my onTimerComplete() but that function does not finish. It runs myFunc1() but never finishes it nor does it ever call myFunc2()
However, if I call onTimerComplete() directly, everything works.
I have had to program some applications that require large amounts of timed tasks to occur. However, I'm afraid to create so many timers because I haven't been able to figure out how they are handled by Java. Is there a problem with starting large quantities of scheduled tasks? If so, what is the better alternative?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need a time tracking app. There is a lot of time trackers on Google Play and I've tried a lot of them, but in every app I missed one important feature: parallel timers for different clients and jobs.
I need:
- to define my clients, to define my jobs I do for the clients, to define projects.
- to simply choose client, project and kind of job and then start the timer
- to simply start and stop MULTIPLE timers (start and stop one timer, while second timer is still running)
- to export all data in usable form (for billing my clients)
Example of what I mean:
- My job is phone support. I am sitting at home and answering phone calls. I am payed for hours, so I need to start timer and leave it running almost all day untouched (except of lunch time).
- Because I spent most of the time by waiting for calls, I simultaneously do other jobs. I write articles, compose music and do some other work for other clients. So I need to start and stop timers according to actual work - but the "phone support timer" has to be also running. When I am - for example - writing an article and someone calls me, I need to stop "writing article timer", pick up the phone and solve customer's problem. When I drop the phone, I need to start "writing article timer"... etc...
This kind of app with parallel timers I've used on my Psion PDA back in 1998, but I can't find similar app for Android phones.
I'm just wondering if the "X" being the latest Hi-End phone has some of these "Basic" features, and how to make them work.
My Oooold Moto Razr & old Blackberry Perl there were (1) different ring tones for text, alarm, incoming-ring, etc. You could also set different levels of volume for each.
(2) You could lock individual applications (password protected), like text, recent calls, phone book, etc.
(3) You could also set a timer for phone to SHUT Off, and Turn ON - and pick weekdays, or weekends, or each day.
I haven't been able to figure out these BASIC things on the X yet. Can I download any apps for this, incase Moto Droid forgot to include these basic features on their hi-end phone?
I've looked for this and I can't find it, so I hope I'm not being stupid . All I want to do is reset the call timers and packet data sent on a monthly basis on my HTC Desire so I can tweak my monthly usage if necessary and not exceed my quota. I can't find a call usage summary anywhere on the phone; all I can find is individual times etc per recipient called.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIn an effort to reduce duplication, I have my app's workspace split into 3 projects:
Main (A library project, where all of the common code lives)
Free (To make the free version)
Paid (To make the paid version)
Behavior in the free version and the paid version must differ sometimes. How can I "call into" the final projects from the library project? Here is some sample psuedo-code to illustrate my question: Code...
Could it be at all possible to code an app for the G1 that would allow you to say, slightly jerk the phone to the left or right, and that gesture would act as a phone shortcut? Since the phone is equipped with an accelerometer, it seems like it could be possible to have it behave a certain way, depending on certain movements. So say I wanted to start writing a SMS message. Without even having to touch the screen, or any of the buttons, I simply just jerk the phone slightly to the right (or any sort of gesture), and then up comes the compose SMS message menu.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm developing an application that must handle multitouch. Basically I want single touch for rotating ( this is no problem ). And multitouch for scrolling.
I have the basic code in, but I'm having problems when the shift from single to multitouch, and vice verca, occur. Basically the movement will jolt because the median position of the multitouch ( two fingers ) and the absolute position of the single finger are at a distance. So if I have two fingers on the screen, they make up a median position, and then lift one finger, it would be like a quick movement from that median position to the absolute single finger position. This will be the movement that I don't want.
This is my code:
CODE:........
The onTouchDown function of the camera just sets the first value of the touch move. That's why I also use it in the up movement to set a new begin value for the single touch movement when coming from a multitouch.

Is there a way that I can automatically update my world object without having to manually call it in the setSurfaceSize method but instead call it from My world class? My guess is that I can use some sort of callback, but I don't understand them!
/* Callback invoked when the surface dimensions change. */
public void setSurfaceSize(int width, int height) {
// synchronized to make sure these all change atomically
synchronized (mSurfaceHolder) {
