The reason is that i flashed many custom roms on my phone and now I have some dead pixels on my camera and i can't send it back to Sony cause I already destroyed my warranty and I heard if I reset a custom binary download counter i will be able to restore my warranty?
I'm trying to unbundle a binary file (sound1.ogg) and store it on the sdcard.So it starts out as a raw resource (R.raw.sound1) and should end up as a copy named /sdcard/ mydir/sound1.ogg I wrote a method called something like copyResourceToFile() and did a copy via file descriptors / streams. But the target file just isn't right.If I do a buffered read, the target file ends up being WAY bigger - like 10x bigger.If I just do a byte-by-byte read for the size of the original file, the target file is the right size but is not the same file. Is there a simpler (well, correct/working) way to do this thing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought an android 2.3.6 phone which no one has tried to root( it seems). So I was wondering if I could root it by creating an update.zip file containing the su binary and the superuser apk and then installing it in the recovery mode. Will this work? I have failed with gingerbreak, unlockroot and z4root.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my Android app I want to have an input field with autocomplete. The number of items will be about 300000. The best solution seems to be to put the items into a file (on sdcard), one item per line, each line would have the same number of characters so that I can seek to specific line number. If the user enters something in the text field, I would binary search (via RandomAccessFile) the file and show suggestions.I want the autocomplete to be super fast (ideally under 100ms but I guess it's impossible), what optimizations I can do?
Update 1:
I will convert the users input to lowercase english characters (a-z) with spaces. So 'A/b' would be converted to 'a b' and then searched.
Uodate 2:
I now realized I need additional thing - to search for word-starting substrings.
so I'm trying to write in "Update-Binary" in a Zip File .
In The Zip The Update-Binary is Located : META-INF < COM < GOOGLE < ANDROID < (Here)
I'm trying to write and edit some things into the file , which I have tried with NotePad++ and Notepad and WordPad . None will work ... When I go to Flash I have a Error right away since The Update binary is the system to start the Flash it won't work .
I've tried looking around google, xda search tool, have read all pages (3 of them) in Xposed wiki. I've been trying to cheat in a game called Galaxy On Fire 2 HD (I have purchased it), I've found some tutorials how to do that on iOS by modifying some binary files (assetsdatainships.bin and items.bin), on android those files are in game apk, and I cannot modify them without breaking signature.
I found Xposed framework and I think it could be perfect for my purposes. Is there an easy way to replace those asset files by my own? I have very little programming skills though, but I'll try. I've found a short example in wiki, but I don't understand it. I've read wiki tutorial 2 times but still have only vague idea how all this works.

Can anyone explain what does this line mean in the code FileOutputStream f = new FileOutputStream(new File(root,"Video.mp4")); And what does it mean by the parameter root within the File().

Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong with this piece of code? Basically I want the app to download a .png file, display it to the user and also save it to the sd card for future reference. It seems to be all going fine until the while ((len = webstream.read(buffer)) > 0) part; as the debugger doesn't reach the breakpoint I've put in here, and I have a directory of empty .png files. I have the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission declared in my Manifest.......

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone have a good example of using a service to download a file?
I am not sure whether to use remote or local and even if I was sure, I need a basic example to start with.
Basically, I want to start the service with the url of the file to downland and when the download is done end the service.
Google's example of services is filled with junk so I am not sure what is needed and what is not.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement the functionality to resume a large file download, but have not found how to start downloading from a position that is not at the beginning of an InputStream.I am currently using the InputStream.skip() method to go to the position where I want to resume the download, but have found that this method actually reads all the data over the network and then throws it away.I would appreciate some help in learning the correct way to start reading from the resume offset of the internet file being downloaded, so that I can avoid wasting the phone network bandwidth, and also avoid the extra time delay caused by re-downloading all the data that was already previously downloaded.

I've some files stored in a SQL database. When a user visits a url with the given ID, the BLOB data is retrieved from the database to the webbrower However, the iPhone (Safari) can't download a *.txt and *.doc file. It says: "Safari can't download this file". A pdf can(!) be downloaded and viewed.On Android none of the files can be downloaded.Is this because the iPhone and Android just can't handle all files? Or am I doing something wrong in the Response.

In my app, I have to present a few numbers from a .csv file that's accessible from the web. Now, this .csv is quite big. I don't want to download and process the whole thing, there's no point. My numbers are always in the beginning of the file, in well specified positions - lets say position 5 to 10.
Could you give me some tips on how to implement this? I know how to download the whole thing, but don't know how to download only a part of it.
