General :: Phone Not Allowed MM#6 And Doesn't Allow Any Calls

Jan 20, 2013

After using a CL purchased At&T Galaxy S3 for 14 days, the phone now says "Phone not allowed MM#6", and does not allow any calls.

I verified the IMEI number with T-Mobile and AT&T and the number is not Blacklisted / Reported Stolen (had to confirm this before I tried anything). AT&T even gave me an unlock code for the phone (no use, as the phone is already unlocked through UMTS/Debug Screen/......./Network Lock settings).I have also refreshed the IMEI data.

Android :: ScrollView With Buttons Inside / No Response Until Second Click On Any Button Inside

Oct 30, 2010

I've been a couple of days trying to solve this thing but I can'f figure it out.The problem is, simple activity, with simple layout, ScrollView -> LinearLayout -> and a lot of buttons inside the layout (within the scroll content). Everything works just fine but one tricky thing. When I click a button let's say at the top of the scroll content and inmediatelly I scroll down to the bottom of the content and I click other button there, nothing happens until I click a second time and all come to normal again.This can be reproduced anytime and it's code independent (i've tried more than 20 scenarios). I've not much experience in android yet but looks like the scroll listener stops the onclick listener or something like that.

Android :: ListView Inside LinearLayout Inside ScrollView

Jul 7, 2009

So I've been extremely frustrated by this for a long time now.I've posted before, but can't seem to find a good solution. My goal is to have something pretty much exactly like the installed application details page in the Android Market.I need a list of items displayed along with other content above the list, and would like the content above to scroll up along with the list (exactly like the application details does for the "My Review" and other descriptive info).Due to responses to my previous posts, I came to believe that it really wasn't possible to do this with a ListView.So rather than using a ListView, I refactored my code to use a simple LinearLayout and add individual View items to the list, thinking I could just set each View as clickable and add an OnClickListener to each View in the LinearLayout.That's not working at all though, and now I'm getting even more frustrated.If someone can help me get the OnClickListener working, then I think it'll work, but I do need a separator for the LinearLayout.How do I add a separator like the one used for ListView to my LinearLayout?

Android :: AppWidgetProvider - 1.5 SDK?

Apr 21, 2009

I have a general question. Is it possible to set the RemoteView of the widget to a WebView? My goal is to push real time updates to the WebView via the comet technique (HTTP long polling), similar to how Google Talk does it on the desktop browser I suppose. Do you think battery life would be significantly impacted with this approach?

Android :: AppWidgetProvider And BroadcastReceiver

Oct 2, 2009

I have an app widget that extends an AppWidgetProvider to create an application widget.

I would like the application widget to be idle until an activity in my app runs; actually when a service in my app is started.

Once that service is started, I need to "wake up" the application widget and communicate with it (i.e. tell it things to display).

So I see that AppWidgetProvider simply extends BroadcastReceiver -- so does that mean:

1. I need to call registerReceiver in my service and tell it to filter for certain kinds of events?

2. Can I even do #1, or will an AppWidgetProvider *only* accept ACTION_APPWIDGET_* intents?

3. If #2 is correct, how can I communicate or "wake up" / trigger the application widget?

4. Can I send events to my app widget using sendBroadcast( intent )?

Then, my app widget has some buttons on it, I need to send an intent back to the application (or service). I see you can do that with PendingIntents, but if i send the different intents it to the same Activity, it seems to re-use the first created pending intent.

Android :: Pass Value From AppWidgetProvider?

Nov 8, 2010

I would like to pass a value from the AppWidgetProvider to a service. How can I do that? This value is taken from the widget configuration. If this value changes (by going to the configuration again), how do I pass it back to the service? Is there another way to do this?

Android :: Model For AppWidgetProvider

Aug 2, 2010

I have a widget that shows some data fetched from the Internet. I may have multiple widgets visible on the screen, each displaying some data, partly the same as the other widgets. From time to time I re-fetch the data from the Internet and update the widget views. I've modeled this in an MVC style: I have a model which I can invoke a "re-fetch-data" on, and which the views listen on. My questions:

A) Is it wise to let my model be a singleton?
B) Can I rely on that all widgets are served by the same AppWidgetProvider? Or may some of my widgets get served by a different AppWidgetProvider instance? Or, more generally: Is there any guarantee that there will be only one instance of my AppWidgetProvider? If there is only one instance of my AppWidgetProvider, then I could use an instance variable here for the model, and pass either my AppWidgetProvider or the model around where needed. Perhaps a better option?

C) In the AppWidgetProviders onUpdate method, can I be sure that the same "context" object is passed as argument each invocation?

Android :: Updating AppWidgetProvider From Service

Jan 1, 2010

Here is my issue, I want to be able to update a specific AppWidgetProvider (home screen widget) from a custom service class. I have to build the remote view in the service because I'm also doing some networking in there, which takes some time. The problem is that I can't figure out how to update a specific widget (individual widgets can have different update intervals, using the alarm manager). If I wanted to do it from the onUpdate of the AppWidgetProvider I could just call appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, remoteView); Does anyone have any experience with this or any suggestions?

Android :: AppWidgetProvider And Screen Updating?

Nov 13, 2010

I am making a clock widget for the android home screen using AppWidgetProvider. I have it calling the TImerTask class that updates all my values using this code:

@Override
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds {
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new MyTime(context, appWidgetManager), 1, 1000);
}

In the TimerTasks run() I am setting a bunch of text views to the relevant values. My problem is that this seems to work fine, but it makes my home screen unresponsive, probably due to updating it every second. How do I fix this and still have it update the display at the correct time? (I only need to see minutes not seconds, but I want the minutes to change at the correct second.)

Android :: AppWidgetProvider - Convenience Functions

Oct 30, 2009

Android :: Start AlertDialog From AppWidgetProvider

@Override public void onEnabled(Context context) { super.onEnabled(context); Log.v(TAG,"onEnabledWidget"); AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context).setIcon( android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_info ).setTitle(R.string.app_name) .setMessage("This is testing") .setNeutralButton("Confirm", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { } }); alertNotSmc = builder.create(); alertNotSmc.show(); //runs when all of the first instance of the widget are placed //on the home screen .........

Android :: Add App Widget Through Created AppWidgetProvider?

Jul 14, 2010

I'm slighty puzzled about how android's AppWidget machinery works. I reimplemented the AppWidgetProvider's constructor like this:

public class MyProvider extends AppWidgetProvider {
public MyProvider() {
Log.d("TEST", "Creating...")
}
public void onUpdate(..., int[] appWidgetIds) {
// updating stuff here

From what I've read in the docs, I understood that AppWidgetProvider is instantiated once, when widget of that type is added for the first time. If another widget of the same type gets added, it will be managed by exactly that provider.But I just discovered that this is not the case. For each widget I add, android creates a new MyProvider (I see that from 'adb logcat' - it prints "Creating..." for each widget)!I don't understad why. Maybe I got something wrong? Or documentation isn't clear on something. What's the reason of having appWidgetIds passed to onUpdate and other methods if each provider is managing only ONE widget?

Android :: Accessing Elements Of Widget From AppWidgetProvider

Nov 23, 2009

I have built a widget that contains a button and an editable TextView (that behaves like an EditText) much like the native Google Search bar widget. How can I access the text that the user has typed into the TextView? In an Activity I would just use findViewById(), but of course I can't do that in the AppWidgetProvider. (I get the error message "The method findViewById(int) is undefined for the type Widget.") So I tried to solve it by using a million casts, like so: String str = (String) ((TextView)((Activity) context).findViewById(R.id.txt_input)).getText(); Unfortunately, with that line present my app crashes. What is the correct way to get references to those Widget elements? I've read all about RemoteViews and Widgets and looked for examples where somebody does this (which seems like it would be common, but I guess not) but I haven't turned up a solution. What am I missing?.....

Android :: ProgressBar Doesn't Allow Control Of Visibility In AppWidgetProvider

Aug 7, 2009

I was trying to set a progress bar to View.INVISIBLE or View.GONE, or View.VISIBLE inside an AppWidgetProvider. However, it doesn't seem to want to do it. Setting visibility works fine with TextView fields or ImageView fields or ImageButtons. However, ProgressBar doesn't seem to work. It doesn't make sense that just the progress bar type isn't supported for controlling visibility. Has anyone else seen this problem?

Android :: AppWidgetProvider Not Inform When Adding Widget Fails Due To Not Enough Space

Dec 30, 2009

My app has a 1*4 icon size widget. When a user tries to add a widget I provide with a configuration screen. and some data is collected - it is verified by the server - it is added to the local DB with appWidgetID as the key - all is good. when user hits save, if there is not enough space, he is given a polite toast - "No more room on this home screen". Now my problem is that the application is not informed of this. Application still assumes the widget was created and sits back and wait for the broadcast to update the widget after certain amount of time.

Can anyone tell me if i can find out via a broadcast or a call back or any method possible to determine if the widget was not successfully created, so that i can mark that record in my DB as deleted. Or better if i can know the space available beforehand via some magic ninja code. my whole application design is disturbed because of this problem.

General :: ADB Inside Android?

Oct 3, 2012

I'm wondering whether it would be possible to run ADB (Android Debug Bridge) inside an existing Android device. I saw this, but what I want is to be able to compile an ADB binary (plus any necessary libraries) for Android, put it on my sdcard, and run ADB commands from within a terminal emulator.

Secondly, I'm wondering whether, after installing ADB on one device (device #1), I could connect that device and another device (device #2) together, and use device #1 to perform ADB commands on device #2 (for example, rooting device #2 without needing a PC).
