Communicate To WiFi Enabled Arduino Board With Static IP - Socket Connection
Feb 3, 2012
So Im writing an application to communicate to a Wi-Fi enabled Arduino board with a static IP...
This is what Im trying to do...
1.) Enter Ip and Host
2.) Connect
3.) Simply send either a "0" or "1" to the arduino board
There are two activities at the moment, one to enter the IP and port of the Board (which is set from the board itself) and one to send data to the board. When i comment out the connection methods in the Communicator class the app swithches activities without any issues, but when i un-comment them and attempt to connect, the app immediately closes after i attempt to connect.
Code:
package car.test.namespace;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
[Code]...
Code:
package car.test.namespace;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Communication {
[Code]...
Code:
package car.test.namespace;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
[Code]..
Also, im not even seeing the "Connection Failed" message, the app is just shutting down,.

Since the 2.2 update if I leave Wifi enabled and leave the connection area, 3G does not turn back on and I'm left with no data connection at all. Only way I can fix it is to restart the phone.

Does Android keep the connection between the server/socket when it moves from EDGE to WIFI and vice versa?

I am developing an application which incorporates socket programming. I need to refer to the socket object created in the starting application when connected to a server in any other activity in that application .
Can I define a class in an acitivity and define a socket as a static field in that class and refer to that socket object from any other activity in that application?

I'm working on application that uses a socket connection.I've implemented 2 different Threads for the read() and the write() methods so they are not being blocked by the read.Everything is working well on the WiFi connection but when I switch to GSM connection the connection becomes unstable without any exception being thrown. It means that there are freezes.the write and read seems to work but no data is actually being piped.

I wondered if there could be a specific reason why a server socket could refused a client request connection , the server running on one android device the other on the emulator?

I would like to know what is the recommendation for socket connection management in Android?In our App we would like to be connected to a TCP/IP server when our app is in the foreground or paused. So, create a connection to a TCP/ IP server when the App starts basically, On Create of the launcher activity. However, we do not want to create a new connection and close connection every time an activity is created, paused, destroyed or orientation changed. So, we save the connection object in the App class and the activities will reuse the same connection.Question is when do I close it? I would like to close the socket when the App is "paused", "stopped" or "destroyed". The problem is these messages are not sent in the App context. How can I figure out if the App is in foreground or not? Even the "Terminated" event for an App is not guaranteed to be delivered. So, in that case how do I know when to disconnect?

I'm creating an application that uses an android to send and receive data via bluetooth. but I'm having problems when creating the socket. He gets caught in that line mmSocket btserver.accept = (); And I can not pair with any device.I have another doubt, I can make that communication with an android and a symbian?

I have been trying to setup a Droid to Droid 3G connection. I can confirm that all works great in wifi mode. The Droid can make connection requests (Http, Telnet, raw sockets) in 3G, but I cannot get the Droid to accept a socket connection in 3G mode. I was told by Verizon that a special license may be needed to accept socket connection requests and they would send me some information. So far none has been received. If anyone knows how to program the Droid to accept socket connection requests over 3G, please respond. Also if anyone knows why this not allowed please respond.

I am working on an app that uses a Socket to connect to a controller over TCP. The protocol library was written in Java and I am implementing it in android via a Service. where the Connection class is a Thread that handles the communications with the controller. It's where the Socket lives.I'm using the Preferences mechanism to store the IP and Port. If I feed the Socket the correct IP and Port, the Connection Service works beautifully. However, I am trying to simulate a user entering the wrong information and having the connection fail. The ultimate goal is to present a dialog and offer the ability to "reconnect" or "update settings". However, when I enter a wrong Port number, the application simply hangs.I was under the impression that Threads executed concurrently so I've tried moving the call to start the Connection Service to a Thread, but it still hangs the application.

I'd like to know whether there is a way to connect to a TCP server (socket server) in an computer using his name (e.g.: my computer has a host name: MyComputer; then I must connect with it using his name).
It can be done using NBNS protocol (NetBios Name Service), but always I try to connect using his name, the Tablet uses DNS protocol instead of NBNS, as I might expct.

I am developing an app which has one service running in the background even if the application is closed. This service basically listens to the server via socket connection. It is an app's requirement to keep one consistent connection open. but this drains battery liek anything. I know socket is costly affair in the sense of battery life. Do anybody know any other way to keep communication channel open? or any optimization in using socket?

First off, let me say that feel free to recommend me if long lived TCP persistent connections are the way to go or persistent HTTP connections are better.
I've also pre-read that instead of having a persistent connection, I can have a polling mechanism.
I'm just asking in the curious interest of how can I create a persistent connection from Android to a server?

I assume that when I do a read on the inputstream, it blocks until it gets more data to read.
I also assume that when the connection is closed, the read throws an IOException.
The problem is that sometimes when I change the connection from carrier to WiFi or from WiFi to carrier, the read just gets stuck and never throws the IOException.
The SDK is 1.5 and the phone a HTC Hero.
This behavior is quite ugly for me because I need to stay always connected.
Does someone else have ever seen this problem ? Is it a bug or am I the bug?

I'm trying to set up a basic network connection using droids but I'm having problems.my server program:
Code:
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(8888);
while(!end){
//Server is waiting for client here, if needed[code]....
the server runs until it reaches ss.accept() like it should but the client still can't connect. The client usually times out and nothing happens
I'm running both these programs using eclipse on my computer. I set the premissions in the manifest for both programs to let them use the internet and I have the port forwarding .

I am playing around a bit with peer-to-peer communication with android devices.I have written a basic program that creates a listening ServerSocket on each phone using the application. Using the application you can also connect to other devices that is listening, by connecting to the remote ServerSocket. Nothing strange about that.My problem is that it seems that the listening port is not open for connection on different devices. I can connect to my HTC Desire, works like a charm. But connecting to a HTC Hero I get timeout, same if I try to connect to the emulator. But connection FROM the emulator to the Desire and FROM the Hero to the Desire works like a charm. Whats up with this? No security apps is installed and both devices(and the emulator) is running 2.1.

Several posts have "confirmed" that the Incredible has WiFi N. Maybe it is capable of WiFi N, but N is certainly not enabled. See attached picture of Airport Utility at my house, which is a WiFi N router. You can see that one device is connected at 802.11a/n with a rate of 270 mpbs. You can see that another device is connected at 802.11b/g with a rate of 54 mpbs. That device is my HTC Incredible. I've tried it with two different WiFi N networks, and the incredible never connects at anything other than WiFi G, and it never has a rate higher than 54 mbps. Does anybody still care to argue that the Incredible has WiFi N enabled? Has anybody else experienced anything different?

This seems like a common issue developers have yet I couldn't find anything on it (searched through the archives in this mailing list and Google searches). Maybe I just fail at research, but anyway.. My app requires a network connection. If it is disabled I'd like to notify users that it is required and then possibly open the network settings box so they can enable it.

My main question before I buy a G1 is does Android have a Wifi enabled VOIP program (like Skype)? Also, can I link it directly to a PC and throw any data I want inside it (linux programs). Oh one more thing, can it compile C code?

Is Wi-Fi Direct Software or Hardware feature. Is there any possible way to connect to a Wi-Fi Direct device from a device with only Wi-Fi support without using Superbeam or other apps that use Wifi hotspot feature.
In Wi-Fi Direct specification, it is written that "Only one of the Wi-Fi devices needs to be compliant with Wi-Fi Direct to establish a peer-to-peer connection that transfers data directly between each other with greatly reduced setup."

I think this problem arose after I purchased 'Extended Controls'. I turn off wifi (doesn't matter if I use extended controls or not) and the APN Control turns itself on, really quite annoying! Is there any way to fix this? Edit - Forgot to mention, this seems to be intermittent as well :/....

I am always conscious of battery lately, this is actually kind of annoying. Its extra work to get the GPS enabled when trying to use google maps. Why can't it just auto enable when one touch? I don't enable all these features (except refresh for push email) bc I'm so paranoid about this darn battery.... Plus, I'm always killing apps. Just want to know what you guys keep running and how your batteries are fairing.

I'm experiencing some strange phenomenon on my HTC Magic. I have disabled my 3G, so I only use 2G networks.
But on random times, not very often, I suddenly get a message, saying I have new unread Gmail email. When I look at my Gmail inbox, my inbox is totally up to date! I think this is very strange, because I had 3G and WIFI disabled when I retreived these mails. Can Gmail email be retreived via the 2G network? As far as I know, email can not be retrieved via GPRS or other 2G network.
