I write a service that should work with LocationClient (Google Play Services). I have an IntentService and an AlarmReceiver (to get location periodically). I have an exception that I cannot catch.
AlarmReceiver.java

I'm currently working on an XMPP app' on Android and I'm pondering about the best way to throw a different type of Exception than a RemoteException to my activity from my service.
As it seems impossible to throw another thing than a RemoteException using IPC (you can't declare to throw anything in your .aidl), I just see two solutions:
Create a listener for my activity to listen on my custom XMPP exception, which in fact will not be thrown but just sent as a usual object implementing the Parcelable protocol.
Catch my XMPPException and throw a RemoteException (with a content updated with my XMPPException) - But in that case, how could I know on my activity if it's an XMPP or a real RemoteException ? By tagging the name of the exception and parsing it on my activity ? It would be really gore.
I'm trying to call a RESTful web service from an Android application using the following method:
CODE:................
I can browse to address and see the xml results using the Android Emulator browser and from my machine. I have given my app the INTERNET permission.
I'm developing with eclipse.
I've seen it mentioned that I might need to configure a proxy but since the web service i'm calling is on port 80 this shouldn't matter should it? I can call the method with the browser.
I have two projects in Eclipse: service and UI client.
In onCreate in UI client I have:startService(new Intent(this, ExampleService.class));
But this fragment: ExampleService.class throws NoClassDefFoundError exception at runtime. I have installed ExampleService.apk, and ExampleUiClient.apk. Project compiles, and everything looks fine. What I am doing wrong?
Is it possible to start service from other apk?
My web service should be returning an integer, but every time i run the code i get the NullPointerException error. i think my url string may be the problem, but i've tried using my ip with no luck. Code...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am getting IllegalArgumentException: Service is not registered when i try to stop my service by initially calling unbindservice and then stopService.
Before calling unbindService i first check if my service is still bound by checking (mBoundService - obtained from the ServiceConnection) I also check if the service is not stopped and only then i call the unbindService But I still get the error. From the posts that I read only I found out that both these calls are asynchronous and that the service will only stop when nothing is bound to it.
When I call a Web Service, it returns me this exception: java.net.SocketException Permission denied. I dont know waht is the actual problem. I don't know how to solve this? home.java page:............

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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a galaxy s2 and after I installed costom roms I dont have any signal what so ever.
I tried with like 3 roms and the same result.
I tought it was a modem problem and I tried to install some modems and see if that works. But it didnt.
My Service State says Out of service and sometimes it says Radio off.
I'm confused about whether I need to run my service in a separate process. What are the advantages / disadvantages of each?For reference I'm trying to create an App that uses a service to play [streaming] audio in the background. So which one is better for my use case?
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhat I'm trying to do here is implement something like a peer-to-peer client. Being that, it will start a client thread and a server thread.I know Services themselves run in the main GUI thread, so I'll have to start a couple of independent threads (or Asynctasks?) for each server and client. The only thing I'm not so sure about is if I'll better have 1 Service starting 2 threads, or maybe 2 services, each one of them starting their own thread.

i have a question about Services in Android.I have a application with two Services A and B.Is it possible that Service A can stop Service B?I dont want to do it through a Activity, cause the Application will be in Background.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am developing an Android app which needs to poll a specific webpage in time intervals. I've got it to the point where it does indeed poll the page on a specific interval, and that interval is specified in a SharedPreference which can be changed by the user in the settings page of the app. But complications arise when network connectivity is flaky.For example, how do I ensure that the Service "wakes up" the network adapter and gives it ample time to connect before polling the page, in the case that the phone was sleeping to save power? This polling action can happen as little as once every 24 hours, so I don't want to miss one action just because the network was out (but turned on a few seconds, minutes, or even hours later).
Or there are times when the web service doesn't respond, or DNS doesn't respond, or what have you, and for any reason it doesn't get a response even though the phone is technically connected. What sort of rule do I put in place to make this retry later, so that I'm not retrying repeatedly when the user specifically turned off their internet but I'm retrying soon enough that if it was just a hiccup, the data can be received soon after the first try?Are there any examples for this type of situation? What is the logic to best handle this?
I have a problem with a strange out of memory exception that only occurs on some devices (mostly HTC Desire). It happens there every time a user starts a certain activity (no matter how - there are two paths to that activity) and i'm really puzzled as to why (i checked for leaks and couldn't find any)...
The error is either thrown when calling setContentView or shortly after.
This is the code block that throws the error:
CODE:.........
As i said - the error is usually thrown when calling setContentView or when calling getMonthTimeStamps()
getMonthTimeStamps is a helper function which creates a list of dates available in the internal database. It creates a couple of (small objects) and returns an ArrayList.
Here is the function:

I'm not claiming that my code is flawless or perfect, but i really don't understand why this error is thrown. The XML-layout doesn't contain any references to images and not very complicated (textview, spinner, tablelayout).

I read somewhere not to exception handle when developing in Android, is that true?
