I am using a PreferenceActivity to let the user set some values. I am feeding it the xml file with the defined preferences.
I have set all the android:defaultValue="" for them.
When I start my application, I need the preferences, or if they are not set yet manually, I want the default values:
CODE:.................
However, when android:defaultValue="true" I still get false. So, it looks like the defaultValues set in the XML are not used anywhere but when initializing the preferences-screen.
I don't want to hardcode the default values in the getBoolean() method. So, is there a way get the default-values with only defining these in 1 place?
My android application has two kinds of preferences:
1) I have user preferences defined in res/xml/preferences.xml so that users can manage their preferences with a PreferenceActivity.
2) I'd like to define another file for global configuration preferences of my app.
What is the best way to manage my app config preferences? Should I create another XML file with config values or should I specify those config values in strings.xml? What is the best practice for managing config preferences?
I have a ListActivity and a MapActivity. I would like to launch either one of these activities on application startup that has been chosen by the user in a preferences window.
So far the only way I see to launch an activity on application startup is to specify it in the application manifest file using...code...
I am thinking I might have to start an activity that does nothing but looks at the user preferences and then launches either the ListActivity or MapActivity. Seems like a waste to have an activity do nothing but launch another activity. In my research I have not found any solution to this problem.
Will the data still be there after the user restarts his / her phone or changes SIM / battery?

Every method I have tried says that it cannot be accessed from a static method. So how do I access preferences from a static method?
I am attempting to add a simple preferences file in a new Android project (New -> Android XML File), but it doesn't appear to be working correctly.
There is no root element to choose from when I select the Preference type layout. If I press Finish, it doesn't do anything. See screenshot below.
My application is used on multiple platforms so it saves it preferences to a file (rather than to the standard Android SharedPreferences).
Is there any easy of reusing the PreferenceActivity to save preferences to a file or is it a case of creating a whole new activity to do the job? If the latter is the case is there a layout I can use that will make the activity look like the normal preferences screen? PreferenceActivity uses com.android.internal.R.layout.preference_list_content but this doesn't appear to be available to apps for reuse.
I have a Java-JNI-App which must run in 'system' user mode, but once switch to that, my App then cannot access /sdcard.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been struggling to get my application to consume user installed identity CA certs from a p12 file on an SD card. I can't seem to figure out how to access these certs once installed using the Secure Credential Storage (Location & Security > Install from SD card).
I've tried the approach recommended here by creating a TrustManagerFactory and passing it a null KeyStore but that seems to get me just the ssl related certificates.
Haven't found much in the way of documentation.
When emulator is running is safe mode, my application is not visible to user but On HTC-G1 run in safe mode , its visible to the user. How can I keep the app invisible on device also while its runing in safe mode.

Today I was showing my HTC Dream to a friend, how the lock screen works. I pressed the "forgot pattern" button, thinking I could go back or just enter my credentials. Since that moment, I haven't been able to access my phone at all. I can't go back to the pattern screen and I can't log in. It just says Invalid user name or password, no matter what I do. My e-mail is ryanrio...@gmail.com and I've tried ryanrio...@googlemail.com and just ryanriopel and none of it works. I know the password is correct, but I can't login. I tried this on both WiFi and Edge, and I've soft reset the phone several times now.

This doesn't seem like the right behavior. I've tried it with other views inside the FooView hierarchy and findViewById() always returns null.
For the life of me I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

How to restore access to the electronic user guide?
I can format the card from the phone. I can save pictures to the card from the camera app. The phone sees the card properly. When I plug in the pc usb cable I select "disk drive" but the drive doesn't show up on the computer. Sometimes I see the drive (Drive G) pop up for a split second then disappear. Sometimes it never appears. I always get the "choose a connection type" message and select disk drive. The notification bar shows "USB DEBUGGING." I have tried it with USB debugging off or on. I have also installed HTC SYnc but that didn't help (and doesn't connect). Computer says "USB device not recognized." It always worked fine with my MyTouch 3G. There is nothing amiss in device manager.
View 18 Replies View RelatedI have an EVO and a Hero on my account, can't access EPST on either one anymore. I have the MSL's for both, I type ##data# into the dialer, it brings up EPST, I choose edit and type in MSL. Always get a check password error on both phones. Used same procedure with MSL on Hero before 2.1 update, but not since. Used it to change cycle slot index to receive calls faster on my old Hero, went from 2.5-3.5 rings to 2 rings with a change to just 1 (default is 2, lowest is 0.) My EVO seems to be ringing on 1.5-2 rings, not too bad, but if it can get better I want to try it. Anyone else unable to access EPST with their MSL #? Anyone else able to with a different method? Both Best Buy and Sprint customer service have given me the same MSL #, and both have confirmed it is not the other 1 time use password (I forget that acronym)

View 6 Replies View RelatedI got my HTC Hero this morning - its my first smartphone and I am very impressed. I saw some fairly damning reviews online, but when I trialled it I was hooked. Superb device A+ so far, except for this little problem which I think is probably linked to my Laptop rather than the Hero... I have plugged it into my Laptop via USB. Vista found the drivers, installed all well and good. However, if I click on Removable Disk (F I get an error stating that there is no disk in the drive and please insert one. I've tried re-installing the drivers using the ones available online, and nothing. I've also installed HTC Sync which simply doesn't find the device despite being plugged in. The Hero reckons it is connected, complete with USB symbol and HTC sync symbol. So what have I done wrong? I've tried all the obvious ones - reinstalling drivers, different USB port, turning both off and on again (many times), uninstalling, reinstalling etc etc....

I am sure it has to do with a certificate (Equifax one).At work when I get it on the wifi it makes me install a certificate and it will be on exchange fine, actually thats how i set it up. But one cell data or anything else it won't sync.On 2.1 it synced fine.
