How can I detect if the G1 keyboard is hidden or open at application startup? My app always runs in landscape mode, but I can only find how to detect keyboard configuration *changes* (through onConfigurationChanged()). So how can I retrieve the current keyboard configuration (open or closed) at application startup?

I am trying to retrieve the Android OS Version (like 1.5 or 1.6 or 2.1) and I am using this code :
TelephonyManager mTelephonyMgr = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE); String softwareVer = mTelephonyMgr.getDeviceSoftwareVersion();
When I try this on a ADP2 (Google Ion with Android OS 1.6) it will return 02... Is there any table or something that relates such a return value to a specific OS ? Is there any other way to actually retrieve the OS version directly, as in returns directly 1.6?
I have created a Library Project which I import into another project. In that Library Project at some point I retrieve it's android:versionName To do that you need to supply the package name. The problem arises when that code is executed when the Library Project is included within another project, then it seems that that code throws an exception : 10-04 10:15:36.987: WARN/System.err(1407): getSoftwareVersion(), Caught Exception : android.content.pm.PackageManager$NameNotFoundException: mobilaria.android.LandenPlayerCodeBase.baseplayer Thats the package name of the package of the Project Library... it seems it cannot find it even though the same code that is executing that call is part of the Library itself... Does anyone have experienced something like this or has an idea on how to solve this? /edit : I posted this on stackoverflow as well and someone responded with : "As far as I know android library project manifest is ignored at the moment, manifest is not merged into end application when you reference a library. Hence you cant extract any data from the library's manifest." So my question now is : hhmmm ok, that would explain it I guess... But is there any official statement or anyone who knows this for sure ? For example someone who has already worked with a Library Project extensively before ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am adding a local database as a cache to a remote web service in my android application to answer queries. I used ArrayAdapters before for list views to display the results from the web service. Now with a database cache, the result could be either a Cursor(from database) or a List(from web), which means the adapter can be CursorAdapter or ArrayAdapter too. Creating two adapters for one query doesn't seem to be a good idea. So I am wondering what would be the best way to refactor my current code to add this database feature?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Android I get the version of the SDK easily (Build.VERSION.SDK) but I need to use LabeledIntent only if the platform is newer than 1.6 (>Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT) I suppose that Reflection is necessary (I have read this link but it is not clear for a class or to me). This is the code but it gives me an exception because in my Android 1.6, the compiler verifies if the package exists even if the condition is not applied:
Intent theIntent=....;
if(Integer.parseInt(Build.VERSION.SDK) > Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT)
{
try{
Intent intentChooser = Intent.createChooser(intent,"Choose between these programs");
Parcelable[] parcelable = new Parcelable[1];
parcelable[0] = new android.content.pm.LabeledIntent(theIntent, "", "Texto plano", 0);
intentChooser.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, parcelable);
activity.startActivity(intentChooser);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
activity.startActivity(theIntent);
}
} else
{
activity.startActivity(intentMedicamento);
}
I wrote an app that, among other things, renders feed articles using WebView. Now I get error reports that seem to originate in WebView:
-- NewsRob Version: 1.7.0/170 -- Android Version: sdk=2, release=1.1, inc=128600 -- Thread State: RUNNABLE -- Stacktrace: java.lang.NullPointerException at android.webkit.CacheManager$1.run(CacheManager.java:391) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:935)
I've got another report with the same content, but a different incremental version of the sdk (126986). Probably one from the US and one from the UK. So now I would love to know why the code blows up and if there is anything I can do about it. And with the source files and line numbers I felt in good shape to so. If only I could match them to the public code repositories ;-(............................
