Im creating a mail application, where i need to start a service instance for every account, which will check for the new mails for that account. Now my problem is that i want to identify how my service i have created so far (by calling startService()). And also i want to stop a specific instance of service. I know that calling stopService() will stop all the instances of that service. Is there any work around to it.

In the implementation of my remote service's published API, is there a way to identify which client called a given method? For example, is there a way to obtain a unique ID or address of the caller? I already cache an AIDL callback reference to the client, but not sure how I can use this for identification.

I have checked some functions with logging (WeatherService is the class who extends Service):
CODE:........
It gives different hash codes even when I am sure that the same function is running twice (downloading):
CODE:............
I am binding a Activity to the service with:
CODE:.......................
And the service can run for minutes until it is completed, therefore the service can be binded to/created by many Activities.
I have a service running in background. I start it from an Activity, but i want to recovery an instance of that service from other activity (in the same app) in order to call one method.

I do not want to use bindService as I want to handle the service life time myself.
How can I get an instance to the service started if I do not use bindService? I want to be able to get a handler I've created in the service class to post messages from the activity.
Can anyone tell me the Android app that can identify your location and tell you what is around?

When I return to the ListView (via the back button), I want to update the ListView Item that I clicked originally by requesting the parameter values from the remote server.
I am currently doing this up updating the entire ListView by clearing it and rebuilding it.
How do I reference the ListView Item so that I can update the data for that item only?
I have a activity in that there are more than 5 list are there. Now when I select an item from that list then onListItemClick(ListView l,View v,int position,long id) method gets called. Now I want to identify on which list I have clicked.(Because I want to do different operation for different list item selected). How to identify that on which list user clicked?

How to identify a contact item in Android address book ?
I am developing an application to add, delete and update contacts on Android PDAs, I can't think up a good way to identify a contact item in the Contact(address book) taking the following issues into consideration:
1. different people can have the same name.
2. Though a record can be identified by its _ID (eg: Phones._ID), serveral rows may belong to one specific person.
I am going to teat all the information(name, display name, phone number .....) of one person as a whole. Do you have a good way to identify them ? Or, How could I find the connection among the properties of the same person?
know of an app that allows you to browse youtube but does not identify itself as mobile?? A lot of content is restricted for mobile users.
View 4 Replies View RelatedNot that it might matter, but I have a galaxy S4. Had it for awhile and pretty much run the standard apps I always have even on my old bionic without issues. In the last few weeks I started noticing a sort of pop up ad. It only shows a few times during the day and only right after I unlock my screen.
So far I have uninstalled the last few apps I put on and no luck. Even though these apps are ones I have used in the past with no issues. All my apps are from the google play store too.
I put Avast on it and it reports no viruses. I installed Lookout Ad Network Detector and it doesn't find anything.
This is a full screen ad, not in the notification panel. Most of the time it shows a Kindle Fire ad. I just hit the back button and it goes away.
I did visit winrar.com using firefox which might be a fake site for the real rarlabs.com which make winrar. Other than that I can't really think of anything I might have done to cause this.
I have gone through most of my apps looking at settings to see if any have options for ads and no luck.
I'm new to android phone. When I bought my phone, the mobile store gave me some apps including paid for a deal price from dealers. But I found some apps having a prefix in their file name which on googling I found they are piracy developers. But many of other apps provided by them are already free apps from google play. But some are paid apps, for example, AVG mobile antivirus pro. The file is doesn't have any prefix. Is there any way to find if its genuine or not?

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy Verizon Galaxy Nexus has been running very very slow lately. I'm running AOKP last stable JB build and the RAM bar at the 'recent apps' screen show "665MB used - 30MB Free" most of the times. Even if I 'Kill all apps" from that screen, Free memory doesn't go higher than 42MB ever. I did google search with different keywords but all of them are returning only 'task killer' apps, which I believe don't actually do much good. In theory, Android does memory management on its own and release required memory automatically when a new app needs it. But I'm guessing there's some rouge app in my device which is always reporting "hey, I'm using this memory" and not letting Android reclaim it.
So, I'm looking for an app that can identify which app is using how much of ram at any given time. And maybe how much of CPU time etc... so that I can identify which app is bringing my device to its knees.
Hopefully i'm not asking anything obvious here.Basically I worked out that my HTC cable which came with my handset charges a lot quicker than the ebay ones I bought. I did some testing and initially I thought the spare 1000mA adaptor I bought was at fault. I only got about 6% charge per 30 mins. But then I tried the same adaptor with my HTC cable, and it gave me 15% in 30 mins.So I want to buy a spare cable, but I don't know how to tell the difference. Anyone able to explain, or direct me to a cable?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI searched many forums but there seems to be no clear way to identify the screen type other than by eye. Clue #1: The box has no mention of AMOLED. Clue #2: P/N is 99HKZ009-00 Clue #3: Made in China Clue #4: Unbranded, unlocked phone bought from a US retailer. My plan is to root. According to what I've read so far, the method depends on the type of screen, SLCD or AMOLED. I need to know for sure, so as not to brick the phone.

Thus I called SE customer service and they suggested me to do the update via SE website. I downloaded the update and followed the instruction. Unplug the battery for at least 5 sec and put it back, then put plug in the USB cable to my laptop and connect it to the x10. But then it popped a msg ' cannot identify your phone, please disconnect and try again'. I tried it for 7 times and it still has the same message.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am planning to buy a factory unlocked milestone in India and use it on a gsm network .(vodafone India)
My question is that the how do know if its a factory unlocked milestone and not unlocked version from a european/canadian carrier( like a jailbroken iphone ).
Most dealers here sell it without a box so checking the box is not an option and most stores will not allow me to use it before buying .
So based on the external physical appearance how can i tell if its a factory unlocked milestone ?
Are there any physical differences between a droid and a milestone ?
How to find/identify the binary blob of GSM driver on this model, or where to put the unlock code.
