Config Changes Service And Dialog Box
Oct 2, 2013
I am trying to handle the config changes correctly when a service is running. So I thought I had achieved this as when testing this on my cheap LG E400 model (small screen) and turn the phone during the dialog (spinner style) showing, I have set up a onsavedinstancestate and in the onCreate look to see if this is !=null and then get the bundle variables to check where the app is with the service.
On the phone this all appears to work fine but when using my galaxy tab2 7.0 , the app actually does not crash during the screen rotation but the dialog box just stays on screen and nothing changes.
when I then look in logcat I have found that it reports a leak :
[HIGH]10-02 13:34:13.213: E/WindowManager(850): Activity co.uk.XXXXX.XXXX.Exportfile has leaked window com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$Decor View{4236a780 V.E..... R....... 0,0-580,163} that was originally added here
10-02 13:34:13.213: E/WindowManager(850): android.view.WindowLeaked: Activity co.uk.XXXXXX.XXXXXXXX.Exportfile has leaked window com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$Decor View{4236a780 V.E..... R....... 0,0-580,163} that was originally added here
[code]...

I like to do some long running initializing work in a remote service, and during that, a progress dialog shall be shown. So basicly, I invoke ProgressDialog.show, run a oneway method of the service with a callback to be invoked when it's finished, and in the callback dismiss the dialog. I expected the service method to work in it's own process while the activity shows the progress dialog. But what happens instead (according to debugger and logs) is: ProgressDialog.show and service method invocation return immediately, then the service method is processed, and finally the progress dialog is shown for a few milliseconds right before it's dismissed. Even a "not responding" error might occur during that. If I invoke the service method in an own thread, which (as it's to be expected) is finished long before the service method is done, everything works fine. But I don't get why this is necessary. Why does a remote service method block the Activity thread? This even happens if the service method only does a Handler.post and returns immediately.
Simplyfied code overview: Activity: public void onStart() { startService(...); bindService(...);}

I'm trying to implement an input method service that receives intents sent by a remote client, and in response to those sends an appropriate KeyEvent. Is there any way to send keys and control the device like using the hardware keys from an input method?

I have an application in which there will be a service continuously running in background and on certain conditions service should call an activity or pop-up a dialog. I think this is possible. The question is, in case device keyguard gets on say after 2 minutes of idle time then will the service continue running in background. And what will happen when the condition of opening pop-up or Activity is reached.

Awaiting my replacement for my Desire after first one returned due to faulty speaker. Hope to get my replacement in next 2 days.Meanwhile, as I use Microsoft Outlook 2007 on my PC to access my emails from my domain mail account (POP3) most of the time, I was previously unsure how best to configure/sync my emails on my Desire. From other recommendations on this forum, I reached the conclusion it was best to configure my GMail account to also pull in mail from my domain POP3 account, and then just check my mail via GMail on the Desire. However, when I get my new phone, I am now wondering what is the BEST way to actually configure GMail on the HTC Desire?
On the wizard that appears when you first start up the phone, it asks you to enter your email account settings. I could enter the settings for my GMail account there, and I assume it would then check/use my Gmail account via the Desire's own main email app.Is it better for any reason to just bypass the settings for the Desire's main mail app, and instead just configure and access my GMail via the Desire's own GMAil app? AND if choose the latter option, will the phone's email notification system still automatically alert me to new emails, or do I need to reconfigure something to make it do that?AND Will the phone's standard email/messages shortcut option automatically link to the GMail app, and if not, is there a way to force it to link to that?I'd appreciate recommendations for best way to proceed with this as it may save me setting it up one way and then deciding after some time that I'm better using a different method!

I need to save these configurations into a file, and in my app I could change these configurations. In other words, I need a file to take all my config data, and in my app, I could read/write this file as I want.
I've searched document and mailing list archive, and have not found the exact solution. 1. SharedPreferences could not solve : It could only do with simple key/value pairs, my configuration data is more complex . 2. file in /assets , /res/raw could not solve: It seems that the file in these position would be read only
I've found a way, it almost solved my problem, but still not. Our code could deal with the file in /data/data/package-name/files on the target file system, this is good to me, but how could I put my file in this directory after my app has been installed? My app need to read these configurations when it starts.
My question is how could I pack my data file into my apk package, and then my app could read/write this file when it is run.

I have a G1 phone and use it in mainland China. But I can't config it to work with browser and MMS at the same time. However with different APN, the browser and MMS can work seperately. For browser, I use following APN config code...
For MMS, I use following APN config code...
When above two APNs both exists, only browser can work. MMS doesn't work any more.
Does any google export know that how to config G1 to make both browser and MMS work? If it's a known issue, is there any roadmap to fix it?

Looking in the android sdk folders, I've found a file called values/config.xml. This seems to be somewhere that you can define values for later use in layouts and animations.
Given the config.xml:
<resources>
<string name="config_somePadding">50dip</string>
</resources>
How would I reference this to use as the layout_height in a layout xml file?
@string/config_somePadding is actually the only one I've found that doesn't throw an error in Eclipse (even though there isn't a config_somePadding in values/strings.xml), but it appears to just put an empty string.
In the sdk, they use an integer for animation duration. They reference it like this: android:duration="@android:integer/config_longAnimTime". Is there a way to use values that aren't integers in the layout_height attribute?

I have a phone where Im trying to configure ActiveSync. It all goes "smoothly" because the account can be configured. The problem is when I try to view email on the configured account. It says that security policies have to be updated but I dont know where to go. I tried to remove and add the account again but I never see the "Activate" prompt where Im supposed to accept the security policies. Therefore, I don't see the Email app as a device administrator as I do on all the other users I have configured their accounts for.

I'm doing performance tweaks for my new game and I seem to have come across something that isn't discussed much but I think is strange.
I have a static background bitmap loaded as RGB_565 and it draws lightning fast to the SurfaceView.
I then have all of the dynamic stuff, one of which is a full view width/height bitmap and all of these things need transparency so they are ARGB_8888. I thought that switching to ARGB_4444 for everything would speed up drawing because that's half the number of bytes to process but what I'm finding is that under no circumstances is 2D drawing any faster with ARGB_4444. All my tests are showing that it's actually twice as slow to draw an ARGB_4444 bitmap than a ARGB_8888 one on to the default RGB_565 surface!
Would any engineers care to enlighten me as to why this is? Is ARGB_8888 the fastest way to draw bitmaps with transparency?
My target platform is 1.0, btw. My friend just got a new phone and out of the box it was 1.0, not even 1.1, so I want to make sure this works as a first app on new phones. If there are 1.5-specific tweaks, I will incorporate them in a few months but for now it's gotta run well on 1.0.

I needed a tun.ko module for my kernel, so I tried compiling my own kernel.
The kernel did build OK, and also boots OK, the only problem is that I cannot load any modules.
It seemes, that the module tools (insmod, modprobe etc) looks for the modules in /lib/modules, and I have them in /system/lib/modules, so my wifi does not work, as I cannot load the module.
Where I can specify the kernel module load path in the .config file?
Example:
# cd /system/lib/modules
# ls -l
-rw-r--r-- root root 315403 2008-08-01 14:00 bcm4329.ko
-rw-r--r-- root root 211573 2008-08-01 14:00 tun.ko
# modprobe bcm4329.ko
[Code] .....

Google applications do it, and apparently it used to be part of the public API (via android.os.SystemProperties.) How are we supposed to enable/disable sync on the phone? Disabling/enabling roaming is easy, but I'm beating my head against the wall trying to find a non-hack method for disabling auto-sync (much less the granularity that would actually be nice.) Is this intentional by the framework team? Is it a whoopsie that is planned to be changed later?

I am having a problem about repeating Login dialog (an AlertDialog) and progress dialog, coordinating with http thread. I suppose repetitive Login dialog (if fail, continue) handling should be common and straightforward. I guess my approach must be wrong somewhere. I already spent 2 days on this and am desperate. So please help. User starts the app, the main activity starts.Show a login dialog (generated by the main thread, i.e. from on Create. The main thread then starts a wait_thread, which will wait for http to return data and check the data and decide what to do.After user input username/password and press login, a progress dialog starts.The progress dialog starts an http_thread to talk to the server and get replies. Once done, it will notify the waiting thread.If the user type in the right username password first time, the code works fine.But it always fail for 2nd time Login, i.e. When first login fail(wrong username/ password),the wait_thread will generate 2nd Login dialog to let user repeat the login process. But after user hit the login on this 2nd Login dialog, the system always crashes.

I have a really weird problem, which I am unable to debug so far. thing is. my app needs to download something to work. So in the beginning of the onCreate() method, I check if that something is already downloaded. If not, I pop a dialog up asking the user to download it.My dialog is shown and I am clicking, so aManager.install() is called. I am passing the context because that aManager.install() pops up a ProgressDialog to show downloading progress and spawns a new thread in which everything is downloaded. So obviously before creating my dialog I make a Handler to receive the response from that aManager.install(). And the response MAY vary, because for example the internet connection isn't available (Exception raised and catched and listener called with different code).Now, when that happens (Exception) I would like to call another dialog saying "something went wrong, would you like to retry?" so another call to showDialog(DIALOG_REINSTALL) (this time with another code).thing is the showDialog() gets called (I can verify this by logging) but the dialogs doesn't show up. Instead my application JUST HANGS Does someone have a clue why it's doing this? No exception raised, absolutely nothing from logcat, I can't tell WHERE it's hanging...just see that the method is called and the dialog should be displayed.

I have a service running in the background.I have a background thread that gets a reference to the service from the application's main activity. But when the background thread calls a method in the service to display a toast, I get the "Looper not initialized exception".Why,if I have a valid, bound reference to a Service, does this still happen?

I am trying to run the sample soft keyboard included in the SDK. I am using the debugger, and the literature says that to use a breakpoint while debugging a SERVICE, I need to include:
android.os.Debug.waitForDebugger();
So here is the portion of the code I modified:
CODE:...........
I have put a couple of breakpoints, at the statements indicated by the comments.
This is what happens: the debugger first stops at the breakpoint1, for a few seconds. But then the service restarts. For the life of me I can't figure out what makes the service to restart.

My service works exactly the way i want as long as i use start and stop and communicate using intents. However my activity needs to change the state of my service as well as retrieving state information.So i thought it would be nice to broadcast some kind of state_changed event from my service and use a binder interface to pull information from the service or change the services state based on user input.This works fine too. The only problem is that my service gets killed when i unbind it just as the documentation says.Is there any way to keep the service alive but still get an interface to control it directly. My activity offers the user a way to stop the service and the service kills itself anyway after it's work is done but i don't want the service to stop every time the activity is destroyed.
