Android :: Suggestions From Network Resource Into Quick Search Box
Nov 24, 2010
I'm building the search in an application and need to have a way of putting the suggestions which I get from my server as a JSON-array into the list of suggestions which is displayed below the Quick Search Box. Is there an easy way to have the quick search box read such resources? Currently I am trying to use a ContentProvider, but the interface methods clearly indicate one is supposed to be querying a database to get the suggestions. I guess using a ContentProvider is the correct way if you are searching the data which is stored inside the application. I am not so sure however, that it is the right way if you need to query a network resource.
It makes no sense for me to save the suggestions I get from the network to a local database, as the suggestions and their hit rate will vary from time to time. Anyone had this issue? Or can point me in the direction of a similar question? I could not find questions here on stack that mentioned network suggestions.

I'm trying to implement both recent suggestions and custom suggesions in global search in the same application. They both use the same path in the provider so it doesn't seem like it is possible to return different results for them. For example just recent searches for suggestions and real search results in the Quick Search Box.

I cannot seem to dictate the behavior of the onClick function.When a suggestion is clicked, it fires off the intent immediately. Is there a way for it to instead of firing off the intent immediately,simply copy and paste the suggestion as part of the search string?Eg. when typing in J,o,h the suggestion "John" comes up. When I click "John" can it copy that text into the search bar instead of immediately processing the search with John?I'm assuming theres a simple configuration which I cant seem to find.I dont want to go extensively into catching the fired of intent and re-processing etc

Recently within the past couple weeks my google search suggestions stopped appearing on my HTC hero. After I press the search key on the phone I start typing into the search box an no green boxes with search suggestions appear. I don't know what happened and I am kinda disappointed about it. I have reset my phone numerous times and still no luck. Also when I am typing texts and emails it does give me word suggesting like for spelling etc.

I have implemented an activity that retrieves data from a web service and display it in the AutoCompleteTextView. This has been working quite well.I'm interested in displaying a spinning animation while the data is being retrieved (The same effect like the Quick Search Box) I try to figure out how the QSB is doing it (10x Open Source!) but couldn't find any place where the spinner image is being put/set/drawn onto the EditText control.

Just wanted to let you all know about my new app. It's called Searchify, it's free, and it hooks in to the Quick Search Box (on Android 1.6 or higher) to let you do all sorts of things. Searching lets you perform translations, calculations, unit conversions, wikipedia searches, calendar entry and more just by typing in searches. Some of the things you can do with it: Unit converter: type a quantity (e.g. "10 pints" or "5 oz") into the search box to see a list of conversions. Calendar entry: Type an event in text (e.g. "tue 3pm meeting" or "tomorrow 3pm - thursday 5am event @ John's") to add it to your calendar. Translator: Type "translate" then a word or phrase in any language to see translations into languages of your choice.

I've been trying to make my app implement the built in quick search, similar to how it is done in ApiDemos' "app/search/invoke search". I have tried everything from trying to follow different examples, to copying the code exactly as it is in ApiDemos. All I've found for the former have been concerned with older versions of the SDK, and simply not worked. As for the stuff that I can actually run and see working in ApiDemos, I've tried copying the following
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchInvoke.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchQueryResults.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchSuggestionSampleProvider.java
res/layout/search_invoke.xml res/layout/search_query_results.xml
res/values/arrays.xml res/values/strings.xml res/xml/searchable.xml
And everything under "Search Samples" in AndroidManifest.xml
This copying gets me a view that looks exactly like the one I'm facing when running ApiDemos, but when I click the search button, in the quick search box, Android always just opens up a browser window, with Google search results for the given query. I simply cannot find the critical component in ApiDemos that tells android that I want to use my own custom code for handling the search request. Both documentation and other online resources seem very lacking when it comes to this.

I have an XML resource file:
<resources> <section>
<category value="1" resourceId="@xml/categoryData1" />
<category value="2" resourceId="@xml/categoryData2" />
<category value="3" resourceId="@xml/categoryData3" />
</section> </resources>
Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?

1. Is there native RTP support on android? 2. Is there a media player for playing incoming rtp streams, or for that matter streaming rtp audio video from the device? 3. I have a sip stack that runs on android. I wish to develop an application on top of it. Before that, i wish to know, what should be an ideal application footprint that can run on android. If there are any best practices wiki pages...kindly point me to them. 4. I wish to provision some parameters on a java smart card. Is there a way (api) provision on android so that i can read from that card on application bootstrapping? 5. Is it possible for an android application to register for callbacks, in case the mobile device goes out of radio coverage?

I have been looking at the ConnectivityManager class documented at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/ConnectivityManage... .
I would like to know if an Android application can open a network connection (socket) on a specified network interface [on a device supporting multiple network interface types WiFi, Cellular, WiMax etc] ? I am looking for the capability for an application to open a socket on a given type of network for example over WiFi network or over 3G Cellular Data network.
If this is possible in Android, how would I code this requirement within the API Framework ? The ConnectivityManager enables an application to learn about available network connections and currently categorises them as either TYPE_WIFI or TYPE_MOBILE.
There is a member function in the ConnectivityManager class called requestRouteToHost(int,int) [url] which "Ensure that a network route exists to deliver traffic to the specified host via the specified network interface. An attempt to add a route that already exists is ignored, but treated as successful." Sounds like this would install an IP routing table entry to reach a given host via a specified network interface type (WiFi or Mobile). After calling this would it be sufficient for an application to open a socket and connect to the desired destination address ?
Or perhaps the application needs to bind() a socket to a local address of a network interface of the desired type (WiFi or Mobile) Or by setting a socket-level socket option of SO_DONTROUTE ?
