Android :: Get A List Of Content Providers On A Device?
Jan 4, 2010Is there a way to programmatically list all available content providers on a device? No real use case, I just thought it might be neat to see what apps I have installed on my phone that have exposed content providers.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Switching Content Providers For Same Content URI
Aug 12, 2009This may seem like a stupid question but I need to be sure. I was wondering if it was possible to pro-grammatically change the Content Provider used when making a query given a Content URI. The reason being I need to know if it's possible to force the Calendar/Contacts applications to read from a different database via a different Content Provider temporarily while my application is running, so that I can reuse those applications to display my own data. Since the Content URI s are hard coded in each of these applications the only way it might be possible is if we could somehow temporarily change the Content Provider used for a given URI. I know this probably isn't possible, I just need to show it isn't. Could someone confirm this can't be done?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Conflicting Content Providers
Aug 26, 2010Everything is working fine, I can access the provider. The problem is that I want to create a demo version of my app and I want it to share the same content provider so when the user install the full version, the data is kept in sync. Also, it should be possible to install only the full or the demo version. Therefore, I have to include my content provider in both.Now, when I try to install both apps error message, obviously because both AndroidManifest declare the same content provider.Is there a way to tell in the Manifest that this content provider should be used only if it doesn't already exists ? Or another workaround ?A solution would be that the full version migrate the data from a demo content provider to the full version content provider, but I would rather avoid that.

Sep 21, 2010I have a doubt regarding content provider.My doubt is I create a app1 that creates Content Provider and in second application(app2) i am using app1's content provider methods(like insert, update etc). It's working fine but i want to set some permissions in app1, so that if any other app wants to use that provider it must have to get this permissions(<uses- permissions) then only it should be able to use providers.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Understanding Content Providers ?
Mar 1, 2010I am having trouble understanding content providers in Android. Do you use intents to call content providers as well as managed queries?
Also, an activity has an intent filter. The intent filter has a element which has a mimeType attribute. How does Android know which content provider this mimetype is referring to?
The tag in the manifest just lists an authority but not the full content_uri. Further, the content_uri is typically defined in an encapsulated class that seems to only consist of constants but no methods, so I don't see how that links over to the content provider class.
Android :: Content Providers / Database Initialisation
Feb 18, 2009I have a plethora of data which is currently stored in 1000 different very small text files, I want to store this data in an SQ Lite database as I feel that this will be more space efficient and hopefully time efficient as I presume a database query is faster than opening and parsing a text file (please stop me now if this isn't the case!). The data does not need to be available to other applications and will be used internally only. My first question is whether or not to create a content provider anyway, is there any benefit to this? My second question is where to initialize the database, is it possible to ship an application with a database included already populated? Do I have to populate it in the on Create method of the SQ Lite Open Helper subclass? If I have to include the 1000 text files and read, parse and insert the data at inst all time I have a feeling this would be slow. Is it possible for me to populate the database now, dump it to a single file and then bulk insert from the file in the on Create method?

Sep 2, 2010Just found out that I don't need content providers if I don't need to share data with other applications. But since the examples I've seen all use content providers, I'm not sure how to proceed without them and populate activities with data derived from accessing my application's database directly.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: How To Test Content Providers On Android?
Aug 1, 2009I am trying to test my DB using Provider Test Case2<T>. I can see the test DB being created. As such I suppose, the tested content provider should use the test DB. But as soon as I try any calls against the Mock Content Resolver (or the one created with new Resolver With Content Provider From Sql), I get an Unsupported Operation Exception. This is documented for the Mock Content Resolver as normal behavior. As such I am a bit unsure on the purpose of the Provider Test Case2. How do you test your content providers?

Android :: Updating Media List When Thread Complete
Feb 22, 2009I am developing an application on the Android Platform for my music service (axcid.org). Haven't spent a huge amount of time in Java but could use a bit of help with this code: http://pastebin.com/m5300a4e6
Bit of bad practice in there I know but I haven't spent a ton of time developing Java apps. Anyways the problem:
if (!this.listLoaded) { //holdup this needs it's own thread
//Url load and parse time. // Now we can start a thread for the search
Thread thread = new Thread(this); thread.start();
I need update media list to be called when:
public void run() { // search
String URL = this.getIntent().getExtras().getString("searchurl");
sm.LoadResults(URL+"?android=1"); listLoaded = true; }
is done. However calling it from the thread will crash Android. Did many google searches but found nothing. How can I call updateMediaList when the thread is complete? (from the UI thread)

Feb 6, 2010I am trying to write an application with a list of items read in from a file. This item list and the fields that go with each item are fed into a DB. The item names are presented to the user as an auto- completing list. Once the list item is selected, I would like to get the value from the list and use it to query the database and display all the detail information.
The problem I am having is trapping the event using onItemSelectedListener and onItemSelected.
Below is what I am trying.
CODE:..............
This doesn't compile, but it has the fewest syntax errors.
How to get an OnItemSelectedListener to work? and how I grab the value selected?

Feb 5, 2010I recently got the G1 and used my Gmail account online (via computer) to setup my contact list and then sync it to my G1. Now when I compose an SMS message, and begin typing the name of the person in my contact list, only some of the names that match will appear in the drop down auto-complete list but others that match don't show up at all. To compose SMS to them I have to use the Contacts>Scroll to contact>Select text to mobile method. Any ideas why some of the contacts do not show up in the auto-complete list when composing an SMS and typing in a partial name in the To field?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: ListActivity Design / Changing Content Of List Adapter
May 31, 2010I would like to write a rather simple content application which displays a list of textual items (along with a small pic).I have a standard menu in which each menu item represents a different category of textual items (news, sports, leisure etc.).Pressing a menu item will display a list of textual items of this category.Now, having a separate ListActivity for each category seems like an overkill (or does it?)
Naturally, it makes much more sense to use one ListActivity and replace the data of its adapter when each category is loaded.My concern is when "back" is pressed. The adapter is loaded with items of the current category and now I need to display list of the previous category (and enable clicking on list items too)
Since I have only one activity - I thought of backup and load mechanism in onPause() and onResume() functions as well as making some distinction whether these function are invoked as a result of a "new" event (menu item selected) or by a "back" press.This seems very cumbersome for such a trivial usage.Am I missing something here?

Android : Location Providers In Droid?
Aug 10, 2010My application requires current location of the user. For this I have implemented the code and I am able to get the current location. The code tries to get the best provider first and then fetches location information. The problem is that the current location is returned from NETWORK_PROVIDER if GPS_PROVIDER is disabled. If both NETWORK_PROVIDER and GPS_PROVIDER are enabled then the best provider will be GPS_PROVIDER and this takes too much time to get the current location.
So, is it alright if we set the location provider as NETWORK_PROVIDER only so that it will not matter whether GPS_PROVIDER is enabled or not.
Android : Get Location With Multiple Providers?
Feb 13, 2009I want my app to be able to retrieve a fine location, but also to be able to get it's location as quick as possible. What I'm trying to implement is something like the way it works in maps, i.e. it gets a coarse location via network and then refines that location using GPS.
If I set the criteria to ACCUARCY_FINE it automatically tries to use GPS to get the location. The problem is that if a user is indoors then this may take several minutes, if it finds it at all. Is there an easy way to tell the manager to use network provider and then GPS, or will I have to do this myself? If so what's the best way to go about this? Will I need to thread it in some way?
I'm sorry if these questions have been answered already. I've found various location examples but none that seem to do what I'm asking.

Motorola Droid : Consider Switching Providers For Android?
Oct 21, 2009I'm considering switching from T-mobile to verizon for this phone. I was this close to getting the motocliq but this device seems to be much better as long as the keyboard is functional since I'm not even a social networker. How many of you are considering switching carriers for this phone and do you think its worth it?
Is it true there's a 30 day buyer's remorse period on verizon so if I just get it and don't like it for whatever reason, I'm safe to remain with t-mobile and not be committed?
