Android :: Google Account Application - Excel Spreadsheet
Jan 1, 2010
i'm probably going to be getting a droid at the end of january (staying on verizon cause they're the only carrier with 3g in my area). Just got a couple questions i'd like to ask. 1. how integrated can your google account be on a droid? i'd like to at least be able to view my google docs, for example, and i'd actually be a little disappointed if i couldn't edit them from the phone aswell. 2. i know that you can view word files from the phone. can you view excel spreadsheets? also, is there an app i can download to edit office files too? 3. how will my work email play with my droid? i just got hired on and i haven't even visited my email so i don't know if its exchange or what. Again, i'm definately staying with verizon so my choices are just the droid and the droid eris for right now.

I send my plant inventory spreadsheet to my gmail account each morning. It has six tabs (pages) of info on it.
I can't find the tabs when I view it on my hero. I've scrolled up/down/left /right to all edges and the tabs don't appear.

I'd like to allow my Android app to upload a spreadsheet document to Google Docs. Using a simple Uri request:
Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://docs.google.com/DocAction?action=updoc&hl=en");
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(intent);
And this page appears as blank on a phone (must use code not compatible with phones).
I've looked into the Google Docs procedures for uploading from a Web Service. They require first authenticating the user and retrieving an AuthSub authorization to be used in a following POST request (including the AuthSub token) to actually upload the doc. This is easy from a Web Service that can guarantee a URL to return the AuthSub to, but how about on a mobile phone? Currently thinking that I'll use UrlConnection, use getHeader(String) to grab the AuthSub, then build the entire document dynamically like this:
POST /feeds/default/private/full HTTP/1.1
Host: docs.google.com
GData-Version: 3.0
Authorization: <your authorization header here>
Content-Length: 73612
Slug: test.xls
Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet1">
<Table ss:ExpandedColumnCount="4" ss:ExpandedRowCount="4" x:FullColumns="1" x:FullRows="1">
<Row>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">IN</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">OUT</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">TIME</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">SUBTOTAL</Data></Cell>
</Row>
<Row>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Value</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="Number">123</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Example</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Example</Data></Cell>
</Row>
</Table>
</Worksheet>

Droid X - Configured with a Google Apps Premiere, working great. Attempting to add a personal GMail account. Go to the GMail app, select add account, fill in the metrics and then...... "Needs to communicate" message for ~ 3 minutes, then bombs out with - "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server". 3G is fine, on a wifi connection that is fine, web browser works fine..... Google Apps account works fine.

I want to read a Open Office Document spreadsheet (.ods file) from my android application. I need to basically loop through the first two columns & store them in a SQLite database. I am able to do this by reading a regular text file stored in res/raw using the following code:
InputStream is = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.my_text_file);
But no clue how to do the same for an .ods file. I searched through SOF & found a reference to jOpenDocument . But they talk about libraries that are not part of the android SDK & I don't know what to do with these.

I'm trying to implement some basic functionality for Google Spreadsheets,using the protocol specification with requests.The reason i'm doing this because it is for Android, and gdata-java library doesn't really work and the alpha android one doesn't really cut it.I managed to implement authentication, and get for lists, and delete, but for editing updating a row i can't really wrap my mind around it.For example i want to change the contents of a cell here is the specification for the protocol From my understanding of it, i have to send some sort of atom or xml formatted request to the edit URL. I never sent such type of requests. I also found this, which gives a clue on how it should be done (also an unanswered question on a forum), but didn't really managed it.Here is my authentication function if you need it, so you don't implement it again, if you want to try and code it.
/*** Logs in to the Google service using the ClientLogin HttpRequest API and returns an authentication token */ private String getAuthToken() {HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(CLIENT_LOGIN_ADDRESS);
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("accountType", "GOOGLE"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Email", "username@gmail.com"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Passwd", "password"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("service", "wise"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("source", SERVICE_NAME));
try {httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));This currently gives a 400 Bad request.Also I'm trying to achieve this using Apache HttpClient. Does anyone have any idea on how this might be achieved implemented how what request i should send?

Google spreadsheets allow hyperlinks to be placed within cells, such as explained here: How to Make a Hyperlink Work in Google Spreadsheets | eHow.com
This works fine with my pc, where clicking cell offers prompt to click to go to hyperlinked page.
When same document is viewed via my Nexus 7 tablet, I can see the kyperlink text in the cell, but it does not respond to single tap, or touching and holding etc.to activate the link.
I believe this is a commonly used feature and anticipate it's a feature that google should if anything be better at than excel to encourage the migration to cloud computing.
Upon googling for info, I can't find other's having problem and I did find a website with known issues with google spreadsheets ( only ahandful listed) but no mention of the above problem.
So, is there a non-obvious way to activate the link or is it a problem or known bug?

So the one factor that will decide if I will buy the Droid or not, is if I can use my Google Apps standard addition gmail address, ie hikingfan@your-group.com, with the native gmail and google calendar applications on the Droid. Does anyone know if this is possible and whether it works well or not? Are there any other limitations to using a Google Apps account on the Droid, like access to the marketplace? Thank you so very much, I desperately want to use the Droid for my work phone but I want to make sure that I can actually do work on it.

I'm anxiously awaiting my new incredible and am curious about the setup. I have a Google Apps Premier account (paid version) that allows me to use my company email address through google servers. Since my login for this account is not a gmail address with the phone recognize it for setup purposes? I do have a standard gmail account as well but all of my mail goes thorugh the apps service. Has anyone tried it with a google apps login?

I have two gmail accounts, each with their own Google Voice account. Account 1 is my primary account, and I have even ported my phone number to this account. I'm using this account on my phone (nexus 5), and have 0 issues with this account. All texts, voicemails, etc come through with no issues. Account 2 is largely not used. I would like to use account 2 on my nexus 7, for texts, and maybe making calls if I don't want to give out my real number to someone.
My issue is when I'm logged in to account 2 on my nexus 7, I'm getting text notifications for account 1 on my nexus 7. But if I were to open Google Voice on the nexus 7, once GV refreshes, the texts disappear. It doesn't happen the other way around. If I get a text/vm to account 2, it does not notify my phone, which is logged in to account 1.
I've checked the settings in both GV accounts, and neither account is linked to the other, or to send copies of texts/vm notifications to the other. How do I stop notifications from GV account 1 to stop displaying on account 2? I have cleared cache, data, uninstalled the app. The only thing i have not done, is a reset of the nexus 7.
I was initially logged in to account 1 on my nexus 7, but I would have thought removing the app from the device would have essentially erased all traces of the account 1 on the nexus 7. I even signed out of hangouts, to make sure Google was not treating this like my phone, and sending it both places.

Is it possible to use a google account for features such as google contacts and latitude? I know this is not possible for Android market, but would it be possible for other google products? I saw it is possible on this Android 2.0 review: Android 2.0 Review: Almost Human Did they remove this feature from the 2.1 that Hero uses, or can't I just find it?

I use Google hosted apps with my own domain for e-mail, calendar, chat, etc. and I use the e-mail address from that with my main Google account as well. So, both my Google account and hosted apps account use the same address. I had no problem setting up my account on my phone when I got it Friday, but I've been running into a few issues. First off, every time I try to buy an app in the Market, it asks me to set up a Google account to associate it with, even though I already have. Also, when I try to use Google Listen, it asks the same thing. Is there a way around this, or will I have to create a separate Google/GMail account?

I want to set up a table layout that scrolls like a spreadsheet. The top row of column headings should scroll horizontally but be pinned when scrolling vertically. The left-most column of row labels should scroll vertically but be pinned when scrolling horizontally. The number of rows and columns is not known in advance. Does anyone know of an example of this? Are there settings in TableLayout that can turn on this scroll behavior? Is there, perhaps, a more advanced widget than TableLayout that can produce this type of scrolling? Are there some tricks I can do with a ScrollView to get this behavior?

Is it possible to build a spreadsheet-like grid? I would like to select single cells, or one row at a time,like a database viewer.
Or would it need to be implemented at the framework level?
I'm thinking of a UI equivalent of something like this AJAX control, which may be opened in the WebView: http://www.hisdigital.com/misc/flexigrid/.

I have 6 gmail accounts set up in the Gmail app. Never had a problem adding accounts until now. When I try to add another account, it seems to try setting up the account, and then returns the following error: "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server." I have tried multiple times and always get the same error. Data is always turned on and I have a good signal.

Im currently trying to combine android and google apps engine for a real neat application, not unlike http://3banana.com/. However I want to enable the user to login to his google account without opening the browser. I have made some attempts to just simulate the http-posts done, but to no avail. Are there any nice way of doing this google account login in android code? For example, to make my own loginscreen, and then send user/pass to the google apps server and get an aknowledgement if the login information was correct.

I was trying to buy the paid app Better Keyboard. It then sent me to a screen telling me to add a google account. I already linked a Google Account to the phone when I first set the phone up, so I just tried typing that into the 'sign in' option, and it looks like it's doing something for a good 3 minutes, saying "Your phone needs to communicate with Google servers to set up your account. This may take up to five minutes." Now, I would be fine with it taking 5 minutes, except it brings up a page saying "Cannot establish a reliable data connection to the server: This could be a temporary problem or your phone may not be provisions for data services (it is, because you're required to have a data plan to activate a smartphone on Verizon)." I have a 3G signal and I'm connected to a wi-fi network as well, although I've tried it not connected to wi-fi, and still no dice.

I have written a SyncAdapter that takes a "com.google" account and performs a sync with an appengine web service. Testing this with the dev tools sync tester (on the emulator), this sync appears to work just fine.
The problem is, it's not syncing by default. And going to the account in "accounts & sync" shows my google account to be blank - as if there's no sync services available.
I suspect that in order to get my sync shown in the "accounts & sync" menu, I'd need to implement my own AccountAuthenticator that would do exactly the same thing as what I presume google's AccountAuthenticator must already do. This is not an exciting job, and it seems very unnecessary. So:
Is there a way to add an entry to the "accounts & sync" menu that uses my SyncAdapter but relies on a google account? or to add a sub-menu to google accounts that enables sync of my appengine service? if not,is there a way I can re-use google's AccountAuthenticator from within an AccountAuthenticator I write?

I need an email app that Works preferably for my G1 phone. I need it for university and my job, however I can not for the life of me, after a week of trying to get the email app that came on the phone to work it will not work. I took the phone to the IT department if my university after I followed their instructions online for setting the email account up on the phone and every time I got to outgoing server settings the app force closed. The IT guy couldn't get it to work either.
I tried it a few times at home before it just sat for an hour trying to do something or other before my phone crashed and it turned itself off. I had a panic attack and thought I had broken it but alas my phone loves me too much to do that to me. So are there any other apps out there that are worth while for IMAP email (I do know its IMAP no idea what IMAP is =) that I can use with my G1 that I wont have to kill to get it to work?

Is there a corporate developer account that would give us access to more of them? Or do we need to create multiple accounts, one for each phone?

This is driving me insane. When I setup my Hero I had to setup a gmail account, even though I have a Google Account. I setup a gmail account to get the phone setup. I now want to make my gmail account something that makes a little more sense to me. I am not using my gmail account but apparently it shows on Google Latitude to my friends, etc. My question is how does one unlink a gmail account and add a new one? When I go to my Google Accounts to delete gmail it says it will take about 2 days. I wait 2 days and nothing happens. If I attempt to add Gmail back to my Google Account is hows my old address and will not allow me to create a new one. Is it not possible to change the linked gmail address to your google account??

I want to get the email address of the Google account tied to the phone (the one the user enters upon setup). I need it to uniquely identify the user of my app - however I do not want their password as it would, understandably, scare most users away from using the app. So I need a way of getting the email address without having to include permissions that suggest I am accessing account info etc...

I have been researching "remove second google account" on my incredible and nothing but factory format. Is this only way to delete/remove second google account from my phone? I'm using google Apps Standard Edition which is using my own domain name. Everything is ok till I add second gmail account like xxxx@gmail.com. I would like to remove it but, it said "This accont is required by some applicatins. you can only delete it by resetting the phone to factory defaults" Try kill all programs and try to remove it but, it didn't work. Call verizon and spoke with them two hours. they transfer me here and there and no solution but do a factory format.
