I need to import a couple of jars that where compiled under the full implementation of java. I know that Android doesn't use all the packages that java has to offer. My question is: Is it possible to import them without creating errors? Is there a tool that can convert jars to android jars? if so, can some examples be provided.

I have some xml files with a custom format (based on the scxml specifications) that I want my program to read. I've already written the code to read it, but I'm running into problems actually reading the file itself. I want the file to be compiled with the apk, as it will not be changed at all during run time. So I put the file (test.xml) in the res/xml/ folder, and got the inputstream by using:
getResources().openRawResource(R.xml.test);
But when I read in this inputstream it is complete jibberish, which makes me suspect it is being read in binary, as openRawResource() is often used for binary files like images, if I am correct. What is the correct way to do this?
Is there any 1.5 image going around for the emulator? I would like to try my apps with onscreen keyboard. Maybe someone is actually making nightly builds but I can't find any.
PS: Not sure if it's appropriate to ask in this list.
I have an application which is based Android 1.5 but for enabling different screen types support I have to compile and package it with v1.6. When I install and run the resulted APK on my 1.5 emulator, everything works fine except that "Preferences" activity crashes every time I launch it!
When I revert back my API dependency to 1.5 and remove a few 1.6 specific config blocks from AndroidManifest.xml and compile/package it with 1.5, everything works just fine!
Below is the exception I get when it crashes:

I am writing an application and due to various reasons I had to build it using make (froyo code) and not SDK. When I run my app on emulator it works fine. I have an Android device and code to build image for the device. When I build my app with device code, it builds fine. How ever, when I run the application, I get
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
<package.class> in loader dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[.]
A source file in my code is actually doing
sourceClass = classLoader.loadClass(sourceName);
sourceName here is pointing to a class I actually build (I have classname.java file in my code under correct package directory and package name). Note that this app is running fine on emulator, but on a device it is failing.
I verified that the .class file exists in out/target/common/obj/APPS/ xxxApp_intermediates/classes.jar, classes-full-debug.jar, classes-full- names.jar
There are so many apps in the market and I don't trust all of them. Is there a way to remove some permissions of the already compiled APK? It doesn't matter if I cannot sign it anymore with the original certificate of the developer. And is there also a way to add an error-handler into the .apk-file, so that the errors of the requested permissions will also be suppressed?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow I can add headers to my native c file.
So here's the details.
I was able to setup my android project to call a native function from a .so file. And actually I need to add box2d to my project, but I when I include the header files, it won't make. So basically my problem is how do I tell the make file to include a whole folder with header and cpp files.
I tried adding the path directly to the include statement just for the sake of testing it. The error goes away, but new errors come out.

How do I remove strings from / obfuscate a compiled binary? The goal is to avoid having people read the names of the functions/methods inside.
It is a dynamic library (.so) compiled from C++ code for Android with the NDK tools (includes GCC)
I compile with -O3 and already use arm-eabi-strip -g mylib.so to remove debugging symbols, but when I do strings mylib.so all the names of the functions/methods are still readable.
I installed Titanium from appcelerator and built the "KitchenSink" example application.All works well, I'm just wondering where does the javascript code ends up in a built app.I grep-ed the Xcode project and also the result application as I found it in Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/KitchenSink.app, but I can't find any function names from .js files, not even string texts used within the application. Nearest information I found is an answer here : How Does Appcelerator Titanium Mobile Work? but I do not understand clearly how the process works.Is the javascript code being compiled into a binary code (what compiler is used then?), or is it just transformed in some special data-format and interpreted in a running application ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI spent a full day to get my Android SDK sources in my setup and compiled it successfully by doing the File System for x86 and also the SDK, everything was fine but when I tried to use it in my environment (Eclipse) and tried to compile my application (which is working fine on Froyo 2.2), I'm seeing some errors, which seems that I did not get the entire SDK with all the base packages included.
Steps to reproduce:
# repo sync to android sources. # make # make sdk # make Eclipse to point to the new SDK, generated at: .../out/host/ linux-x86/sdk/android-sdk_eng.david_linux-x86/ # generate a new AVD # launch it and run the application

I am trying, together with Lexmazter and Zasuk to compile codefireX, android 4.2.2 for Runnymede also known as Htc sensation xl.
Now i am so close on having everything working but for the last week i have used so much time to fix one error i keep having, when starting up the camera.
The repo i am using is this :
codefireX source
Runnymede device tree
Runnymede vendor files
Runnymede msm7x30-common files
Booting up looks fine in logcat, and it does load the camera.default.so from stock runnymede ICS rom and if i install a Tourch app or flashlight app, i can use the Flashlight from camera without errors. But if i starts the camera app, it camera stops working in same sec as i start it. No picture or anything.
The same kernel/boot.img is used in evervolv for runnymede, and it has working camera So the error should be somewhere in the rom.
Here is a part of a logcat with the camera error :
Code:
3718: E/memalloc( 107): /dev/pmem: Failed to map buffer size:4300800 offset:3072000 fd:53 Error: Invalid argument

I'm writing an app, that has a somewhat modular system. It has a core app, and some apps, that consist of a single Service, that implements the desired interface. I followed the guide to create the IPC communication. But now I need to get all the services, installed on the system, that my core app can work with. How do I do this? I mean, is there any way to mark my Service apps with some kind of a tag, and then filter results, presented by the PackageManager#getInstalledPackages() based on that tag value? What's the common practice of doing so?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to modify the native android applications downloaded from the android source repo at github. But I noticed that after creating Eclipse projects from some apps, like the Launcher, there are missing imports, variables that are not declared anywhere else, etc... After my initial research, I noticed that some of the libs that are native, are compiled at runtime and registered in the dalvik VM as java libs and by having done this the system finds these as already present libs, the same goes for the "phantom" variables. But I don't understand how does a developer open such a project in any java ide, and compile it. So what do Google developers use to work on android apps? I don't believe it's eclipse, since I am not sure you can make eclipse use runtime imports, and runtime variables. And I am almost certain that they do not write code in notepad.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have seen several applications that are free, but allow for add on packages to be installed. Gang Wars sells Respect Points Mafia sells Favors Dungeon Quest sells Gems The central game is a free app, but you purchase these add on apps for in-game benefit. Has anyone purchased one of these add on apps? What is the experience like? Do you have to leave the add on installed on your phone? How does this work technically? Do you think they set shared preferences? How would you handle the 24 hour uninstall rule? I am considering releasing a free game with 10 levels, but offering a full set of levels (say 25) as a separate paid app. I'm looking for the best way to accomplish this and thought the above might have some bearing.
