we're looking for high quality developer tools which have been ported & tested for Android. the first is a code correctness tool that will scan our code looking for non-syntactical errors (e.g. thread synch errors, uninitialized vars...). basically a lint- like tool for Android. the second tool we want is a coding style "enforcer" that will fix, or at least report, code segments that do not adher to our stdrd coding styles (e.g. bracing policy, function header commenting etc) the third one is, well, a placeholder for whichever tool you people have found to be of high value in developing your own Android apps...

.1. This phone the first week started hanging up on people and is now doing it more often and i noticed while im on the phone before it hangs up on people it makes this weird clicking sound and cuts them off for like a second but only i can hear it , it does that a couple times then hangs up with no warning.
2. The past few days my Wi-fi and 4G will randomly turn themselves on i dont know why.
3. I plugged my phone into my laptop to sync my new music onto the laptop so ill always have it incase it doesnt save on the memory card because its done that before. but when i went to sync it none of my recently downloaded songs are showing up on Phone or SD card and i remember setting it to immediately save to SD card so i don't know whats wrong with it.
4. sometimes the phone will freeze or just reset itself with no warning either.

This is confirmed by Verizon, so take warning.I got my Incredible on Tues, used my BB charger on my phone because the Verizon store said it was ok since it was still a micro usb. My battery started dying after about a few hours. Tried every trick in the book and still died afte about 3 hrs.Went to the Verizon store and got it replace. They once again said it was ok to use the blackberry charger. So i let the new battery run down as the guy said and began to charge w/ my blackberry car charger for about 30 min. I noticed the orange charger light was not on. I unplugged the charger and the phone will not even turn on now. Verizon is overnighting me another Incredible.Listen to others if you want or take your chances, but the tech guy at Verizons main tech support center said to use only Htc chargers. **SO USE YOUR BB CHARGERS ON YOUR INCREDIBLE AT YOUR OWN RISK**

Is it just me that is still having problems with the swype pop up warning every time I turn the phone into landscape view, even when I'm just doing things like web browsing?.. I am using the beta version of the software (originally downloaded it from the swype site before it was pulled, but un-installed it due to problems getting it to work: I'm now using the same beta version that is knocking around: droid.swype.beta5612).

I installed the update for CauseWorld (a random little app where you collect "karma" points for "checking-in" to various real-world locations, and then you spend the points on various charitable causes). I used to leave the app running all the time, so I could easily check-in to a new place every few minutes, because loading the app from scratch is frustratingly slow (whereas having it running in the background makes it pop up instantly).
With the new update, if I left the app running in the background, it'd wake up my phone every few seconds, as it tried to update my location in the app. So as I left my phone sitting on my desk, I'd see the lock screen flash on, then off. Then on, off, on, off, etc. Pretty annoying. Last night I charged my phone, and as I went to bed, unplugged the charger, since it was fully charged. But apparently I forgot to shut down the CauseWorld app, because my alarms never went off this morning, and my phone was completely dead.
I plugged it into the charger, but the phone won't turn on, even after leaving it plugged in for 15 minutes.
The only thing that's changed about my phone in the last week is downloading the update for the CauseWorld app, so I'm blaming that, for lack of any other idea of what caused the problem.

Can anyone give me any input on how practical it is to play games on a phone with no hard buttons? Examples would be the HTC Eris and the potential Bravo/Passion. I kind of don't want the Droid because of the keyboard, the D-Pad seems necessary to play games with...

I know that there are loads around but without testing each one it is difficult and those I have tried don;t do what I want.Essentially I need to :
a. define as source folder on the SD card which contains the mp3 files and it should always default to that.
b. Play those files in order.
c. Remember if I stop half way through so that I can, later, continue from that point.
d. Have the usual controls ; Play, stop , next , last, and to be able to drag the time to advance within a single playback.

1. I'm looking for a contacts app that manages my address book a bit better. I've gotten a bit sick of the default ones on my nexus one and dell streak.
2. RSS reader. Newsrob seems to be misbehaving for me at the moment. All evening I read my feeds and mark stuff read. but when I come back to look at my google reader on a pc the next day everythings marked unread. Is there a better one out there?

I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.

I'm looking for a simple alarm. Say I want the alarm to sound of next Thursday at 8:00 (with a text note re what the alarm is for would be really nice) or every June 7th, and a regular 24 hour alarm. On my PC I use Chameleon Clock which I rely on for scheduling. I'd love to find something like that if it's out there.

The HTC People app always seems pretty laggy and can take up to a whole minute just to call someone, which it shouldn't since i could do that in 10-15 seconds on even a non-smart phone.So I would like some suggestions - what would people suggest I use for fast contacts?

I really like the built-in calendar app on my new HTC Desire. But there's 3 things that it can't do, and I really need them:
1. I need to be able to set up how the calendar calculates week numbers. I live in Demark and in Europe we don't calculate week numbers the sane way as they do in the US.
2. I need to be able to set up repeated appointments that repeat every second week, or every third day.
3. I really want to be able to set the default reminder time to 'Do NOT remind me'. The built-in calendar app lets me set the reminder value to 'No remind' when I create a new event, but it won't let me set the default value to 'No remind'.So basically I need a calendar app that works precisely like the built-in one, apart from the 3 things mentioned above

I have much experience with Java, and am quickly getting to grips with Android. But I have very little experience with graphics... most of my work has been logical, back end web development. The last time I did any proper screen drawing was in the good old days of Applets (years ago).
I can see that Android has a very complex graphical interface, but I don't know where to start. I've looked at some of the sample apps that come with the SDK, but it's slow progress.
For example, I'm trying to learn by developing a simple rolling ball. Currently I'm using onDraw(Canvas canvas), a paint object, and path.addCircle() to draw a circle, which I then update frequently. However the result is jerky, and slow - I want to see it flying around the screen! Clearly this isn't the right way to go about it.
So two questions I suppose: 1) What graphics tools would you recommend to implement my example? 2) Where can I learn more about the graphics capabilities of android?

I want to do the drawing in another thread to speed up the game(it is way to slow right now). I was told to do this but don't quite understand why that would speed things up. Is it GameView that should implement Runnable? Should I make the thread sleep when not drawing? where should I start the thread? package com.android.WWS;
import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Context; import android.graphics.*; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.SurfaceView; import android.view.KeyEvent; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnKeyListener; import java.lang.Runnable; import java.lang.Thread;...................

Can anyone recommend a good footy app, aimed specifically at the English premier league? I already have FotMob 4.0 but the interface is a little awkward in that there is not enough room to view the RSS feed, the menu part of the screen takes up too much real estate and there doesn't appear to be any way to get rid of it.

I can't seem to find any popular multipayers games. Armageddon Squadron's room is a ghost yards. It seems like polarbit has great games but no one plays them online. Can anyone suggest any other flying, shooting, racing games that people actually play. I am not interested in quest games or Wow types games. I know some games have the capability but no one uses it.
