I am recently doing a graduate research on the accelerometer in mobile devices. Accelerometer is a MEMs device built in almost every smart phone nowadays. I am interested in finding what information does the hardware accelerometer report that the software knows the raw values X, Y, Z to detect the orientation in which the phone is held?

I am developing a game. In which the user controls movement using the accelerometer. Sounds effects can also be enabled. However when laying the phone flat down and playing the game without the accelerometer gives nice 0,0,0 values. However when play WITH SOUNDS on, i get a buch of weird values: while the phone is NOT moving.
This is really a big bug that makes life hard for Game Developers. I tried to take an avarge of the last 5 values from the sensor.. but this is not enough.. The harder the sounds plays: the higher the weird sensor values. When using the headphones: almost no weird values. Seems that sounds interferes with the accelerometer sensor.
I need an APP for REMOTE MONIOTRING (DROID X , 2.3.4)
Any apps out there that will allow me to access or listen to my phones microphone either via another cell phone or via the web?
Preferably an app that runs in stealth mode. Any additional features would just be a plus but aren't necessary.
The GMail-App on my Xoom and my Nexus S (both with Android 4.0.3) is driving me crazy. In former times I could easily report mails as no spam.
That doesn't work anymore. Instead I guess it should be possible to mark the mails and label them as "Inbox". But that doesn't work, either. With some luck, it works with 1 or 2 mails, but the rest stays in SPAM, even though at first they disappear from the spam-folder.
Isn't there a way to do that? Why is there no real option to mark the mails as no spam?
I have recently switched from AT&T to Verizon, is there any app for Galaxy Nexus (ICS) that will run in the background and watch the coverage and keep track it of it (preferably including GPS location) so I can check how well the service is in the areas where I mostly travel?

I have an original Nexus 7 running Android 4.3. I just learned about the "Take bug report" and "Power menu bug report" method to capture screen shots and logs. Unfortunately, they don't seem to work for me.
I'm logged on with my normal Google account. When I use either method, I get the "Take bug report" popup. When I tap on Report, the popup goes away and then nothing happens - no email - nothing. I've seen a couple of other reports of this happening.

I am a Mac user (photographer/ videographer). I also rely heavily on my iPod Touch when mobile (i can often find a wifi signal when i am out and about). I use iCal on the Touch and iCal on my Mac as well as the address book on both everyday and as a Mobile Me user, my two devices sync so everything is mirrored and up to date. I also HATE AT&T for their terrible signal strength and coverage and have been a loyal Verizon customer for many years and this is why I don't have an iPhone. Okay, all that being said, is there an easy way to still use everything I love and rely on with my Mac (the calender and address book, mainly) and easily sync all of my existing information and future info to an Android based device? How easy is it to use an Android device with a Mac? I don't want to have to manually re-enter my entire address book into a new device.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid user on a Nexus 4 and am a bit cautious about how much info I give Google.
I'm trying to figure out if the Google Play Music app tells Google what songs I'm listening to, or sends any other information to Google for that matter. If so, is there a way to turn that function off?
I know many people don't have an issue with letting Google know these kinds of things about them and that's fine. I'd just rather not. I didn't use Apple's genius recommendations on my iPhone either.
In my application, I want to collect the surrounding cell ID and LAC on my Android phone (to estimate the location).I use the telephonyManager.getNeighboringCellInfo() function which returns a list of NeighboringCellInfo.
If the phone has enabled the option "use only 2G networks" I receive the correct list but if this option is not enabled (connecting also on 3G networks), the NeighboringCellInfo has "-1" for cell ID and LAC for the whole list.
why 3G networks provides less information than 2G ? Is there some technical reason ? Can I still get the cell details on 3G ?
We've had some people develop and application for us. For now, our application uses static data that requires a manual update each time this data changes. Our plan in the future is to have this data updated automatically the instant this new data is available.
For now, is there a way like through some online cloud that I can link the application to? So, that way when I put the data online in this service thing, the application whenever it has a data connection or Wi-Fi pulls the new data?
For the future, what's the best way to set up this automated updates?
Where password information is located in the system? Like password information from the browser and other apps. Is it just the app data or is there extra information on the phone?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI love weather apps, but I've yet to find one that I really like that much. A lot of them are pretty good, some have this function or that function but none of them seem to have everything.
Anyway, years ago I used an app called PocketWeather on Windows Mobile and used a skin called Wonder Skin. It looked like this:
Notably it has humidity, pressure, forecast, current conditions (inc wind), temperature graph etc.. It had everything at a glance, I rarely needed to look into the app at all for this.
Most weather apps I can find today just have some current info, mostly seem to be clock widgets + some weather info.
Any weather widgets with more details on them? I don't really want to get into the complexities of making my own with something like UCCW but I'm pondering it.
So how safe is my confidential information such as google checkout acount etc. when I use Custom ROM? Any tips to keep me safe buying apps from google play if I use custom rom? HTC One V

I need to get system information from device, such as cpu frequencies, gpu vendor and other (like in Antutu and another benchmarks).

I am in process of developing an application and I was wondering if there is a way to capture users information automatically. I am drawing up a spec of application functions that I am going to have a dev team produce so I do not have app dev skillsets. That being said...
My idea was that if an user downloads an application, starts it, and the app is automatically populated with the users' phone number, name, etc any basic information automatically. Google pairs the phone with specific accounts that store such information so the data is there. I am looking for a less intrusive way and more user friendly way of creating accounts rather than direct social media login integration.
Is this something that is viable? or is it against data laws? or not possible?
the play store spits this error at me constantly. It happens when i download apps from the play store. It says "Error retrieving information from the server [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]". Just to clarify, things I've already tried: wiping data of play store and play service frameworks, wiping dalvik and cache, deleting my host file and readding my Google account. I've added another account and it downloaded apps flawllessly so it must be my main google account.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen using my sms app, I am looking for a way to display which phone number of my contact is used (mobile, work, home, ...)
The only thing showed is the contact name and his phone number.
With all the sms apps I've tried (stock, hangouts, hello sms, 8sms, evolvesms, chomp, handcent), I didn't find a way to display this information. I always have to do an extra action (clik on contact photo, or title bar) to check if the phone number concerned is 'work' or 'mobile'.
Any tip or a new app to show this info ?
Here's a snip that successfully reads off, to Eclipse LogCat, the height and width of the .PNG on the SD card:
import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log; import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory; import android.os.Environment;
//...
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/sample.png");
int width = bmp.getWidth(); int height = bmp.getHeight();
int[] pix = new int[width * height]; bmp.getPixels(pix, 0, width, 0, 0, width, height);
int R, G, B; for (int y = 0; y < height; y++){ for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) { int index = y * width + x;
R = (pix[index] >> 16) & 0xff; //bitwise shifting G = (pix[index] >> 8) & 0xff; B = pix[index] & 0xff;
// [This is where I'd put it. But I can't get a red line off the editor when I do anything.] } } Log.v(TAG, width + " " + height);
I can't for the life of me use Log.v() to report the value of R or G or B. Everything I'm doing draws a red line under v or something when I try. I've tried toString() and everything.
Isn't there a way I can get contact information I find on the web into my Android phone book without having to pull out my phone and typing it in by hand?
I thought there was a way, maybe I had to add something to my computer where I could type highlight the name, address and phone number, right click up a menu and have it all added to my phone book.
How do you instruct users to report a bug in Android? I'd like to get send detailed instructions to my users to get the most of their bug report. I know there are various apps that send bug reports from the device and I was wondering how other Android developers deal with this.
