View 3 Replies View Related have created a folder in SdCard using a code below:
if (Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(state)) {
// We can read and write the media
log.v("Storage","ablo to read and write");
//create Beatss folder
File direct = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/Beatss");
boolean success = true;
if (!direct.exists()) {
success = direct.mkdir();
}
I can see that this folder has been created through DDMS. When I connect phone via USB to computer and explore the sdCard i dont see this folder. However, as I mentioned I can see it via DDMS. What is wrong?
New to the Galaxy Note 3. While setting up the phone, I selected a wallpaper that I had downloaded into the Gallery and set it as the wallpaper for the LOCK screen. It worked with no issues.
I then wanted to create a folder to move the picture into and the Gallery gave me that option. I created a folder named PICTURE A and moved the pic that I was using as a wallpaper for the LOCK screen into it.
I went to look for the folder later and it's not there. It's still using the picture I designated for the LOCK screen, but the folder is nowhere to be found. I've looked using My Files, looked in the Storage section of Settings and thru all the apps and such. Nothing.
I assume when you create a playlist on the Droid X it creates an M3U file right? If so, where is it located?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUnless I am entirely missing something (which is certainly possible), I can't seem to easily create a playlist based on all music in a *folder* using the stock music player. I have to select each song one-by-one out of a list of all my songs on the phone, which is tedious and time-consuming. If I'm missing it, please let me know. In the meantime, I downloaded a very basic player called "Player." It does allow you to create playlists based on all music in a folder.
When you navigate to a music folder and select some or all of the music in the folder to play, "Player" creates a temporary playlist with all of the music selected. NOTE: A message pops up saying ONE song has been added to the playlist, but this is incorrect (unless you've only selected one to play). If you've chosen multiple or all of the songs in the folder to play, it actually creates the playlist with all the selected songs in it. Since the playlist created is a temporary playlist, so you must go into the "playlist" area to rename it to what you want. If you don't, then the next time you select a folder to play music from, it will likely overwrite the first temporary playlist with the new one.
It's actually very, very easy (much easier than scrolling through to select each song). The playlists created by "Player" automatically show up in the stock music player as well and can be played there. One negative to "Player" is that it appears to display the wrong album art. If that's a big deal, then simply revert to the stock player and run your playlists from there. I realize there are other music apps in the markets, so this wouldn't apply if you prefer one of those, obviously.
I'm searching for a app like desktop visualizer to link an image to a folder. Like Games or to a folder with all my cam stuff in it?
Is there something on the market?

For instance say I had a variable named dog that held the value of scruffy. Could I then create a variable named scruffy from that variable. In PHP it would be $$dog. That would make a variable with the name scruffy.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do an update to an app that was released under 1.0 about a year ago. When it was released, I used the package naming convention: "com.android.myApp". At the time, I thought this was the correct naming convention. In retrospect, this is not the case. The AndroidMarket does not accept new apps with "com.android" package names, so I am assuming the way I did it is frowned upon/disallowed. So my question is two-fold. #1: What is a correct method for selecting package names? I have started using a convention "com.myAppClass.appname". Where "myAppClass" is a arbitrary name that applies to a group of related apps and "appname" is the specific application (e.g. "com.mycategory.appDemo" and "com.mycategory.appFull"). Is this right? #2: What do I do about the app already released as a "com.android" package? My assumption is to recreate it using the above convention. What will the effect be on users who want to upgrade the application through the market or will the market even accept an upgrade version using a different package name?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIf you are developing Android application, you will encounter such a id naming in xml files of view and layouts :
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@+id/new_game"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_new_game"
android:title="@string/new_game" />
<item android:id="@+id/quit"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_quit"
android:title="@string/quit" />
</menu>
and I am really wondering why such naming is applied to ids. It is because of Linux? What kinda meaning this naming --@+id/...--has? When I am looking at android:icon attribute I can interpret that it means ic_new_game is located under drawable folder and @ means "located at" or I just assume that. But naming id attributes are kinda different because they also have + sign. Can somebody help me understand this convention?
Here http://source.android.com/submit-patches/code-style-guide#shortmethods it is stated that :
"Field Names
* Non-public, non-static field names start with m.
* Static field names start with s.
* Other fields start with a lower case letter.
* Public static final fields (constants) are ALL_CAPS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.
also states that : "The rules below are not guidelines or recommendations, but strict rules. You may not disregard the rules we list below except as approved on a need-to-use basis." I don't like the "m" convention before private or package fields in a class... I really find this uninspired. I mean, if we try to apply good designs, the low coupling of the classes implies having few public fields. actually, in my programs I usually have no public fields, even when I need some I use getters and seters. so, why should I be forced to have almost all my fields in the program with an "m" in front of them? wouldn't be easier to have the few public fields, if there are any, with some "g" in front or something? or just use setters and geters as beans suggest? this really makes my code harder to read. also, following these guidelines, local temp variables used in the methods have no restriction so they could easily be mistaken for public global fields (also without restriction). this also I find to be wrong, as it is a probable source of mistakes. I understand to have a way of differentiating from fields, but private/protected member fields are the most used in an application, they shouldn't be less "readable". what do you think? should I follow the guidelines?
I was wondering if there is an app that allows you to name your phone. For example lets say i named my Droid. Optimus Prime And then i could use voice protocol after saying my phone's name For example Optimus Prime please text autobots (contact group), "Autobots Transform and roll out!" After saying its name the phone would automatically know that Autobots is a contact group and that the message i want texted is "Autobots Assemble!" Is there an app like this already? If there isn't it would be a great idea for one.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt looks like the naming style for android attributes varies between underscore and camel case. Does the variation mean anything, or is it arbitrary? edit: examples would be layout_width and columnWidth.

View 3 Replies View RelatedCan anyone help with album covers? I have one album that shows up with its cover in the default music player. I assume that is because it is included in one of the tags information, I added covers to other albums tag info using windows media player and the advanced tagging option (method found in other forum for other lg phone) but the covers still don't show up when I put the albums back on my phone. Does anyone know which tag the music player is reading? There is also a folder (albumthumbs) that showed up on my sd card once I copied the album thats artwork does work to my phone, and in it is a file without an extension (this is obviously the cover for the one working album). Can I add jpgs to that folder or something and how does the album thumb naming convention work?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAre they that lazy that they cant even give any of there new phones a real name. they just take the name of an older phone and just add the letters "HD" or "Z" to it. and the Desire HD and Z dont even resemble the original Desire is any way at all. also same thing with the Mytouch HD, wich is just a Mytouch 3G slide with out a keyboard. speaking of the Mytouch 3G slide that is another crappy named phone, why couldnt it have been called just the Mytouch Slide instead? did they really need to have "3G" in the title when 99.9 percent of all other android phones have 3G support? and now the Evo 4G and Epic 4G, are they going to have to make EVERY single upcoming 4G android phone have "4G" in the name too? and another thing that pisses me off is the "DROID" name. what idiot at verizon decided it would be a good idea to just rename all of there major androids to have the word Droid in front of it? why couldnt the Droid Incredible and the Droid Eris just be called the HTC Incredible and Eris just like they were originally planned to? and HTC did not even make the original "Droid" phone, so HTC shouldnt even be naming there phone Droid in the first place, ONLY motorola should. what is next? are they going to release another phone for verizon and call it the "HTC DROID Incredible HD"?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm currently programming an application for the Android. Now what I found out is that you cannot place resource objects, say, an image in the drawable folder and name it like "myTestImage.jpg". This will give you a compiler error since camel case syntax is not allowed, so you'd have to rename it like "my_test_image.jpg".
But what about ids you define in the XML file. Say you have the following definition
<TextView android:id="@+id/myTextViewFirstname"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Firstname" />
This is a valid definition, compiles and works just fine on my Android emulator although - as you see - I'm specifying the id in camel case syntax. Now, the Android samples always use lower case and underscore. Is this just a naming convention to use lower case with underscore for the id's or may it cause problems on the real device?
