I have a ListView where I want to show the QuickContact (like in the default Contacts android app when you click on the photo of a contact).
It works fine on my Nexus One 2.2 or the emulator with avd 2.2, but doesn't work on my Samsung Galaxy S 2.1update1 or emulator 2.1.
On 2.1, I'm getting the error:

I'm having a problem where my app crashes on the Droid and seems to work fine on the G1. We have a G1 dev phone but do not have access to a Droid phone, so the issue is difficult to debug at this stage.
The app loads up the main screen okay, but once the user moves beyond the main screen, the app crashes. Moving beyond main screen initiates the following:
- GPS signal acquired - Accelerometer sensor listener active - Geomagnetic sensor listener active - Camera preview active
I have a suspicion that the issue may be related to the camera preview. With the G1, it didn't seem to matter how I set the camera preview size, so I just made it fit the size of the view.
Camera.Parameters parameters = mCamera.getParameters(); parameters.setPreviewSize(w, h); //where w, h are the width and height.
One possibility is that with the Droid having a larger screen resolution to the G1, it may be setting the preview size to something that is not supported. I plan on addressing this, but I have a few questions that I was hoping someone could shed some light on.
1. If the app attempts to set a preview size that is not supported, will it just be ignored or will the app crash?
2. If the preview size is smaller than the surface that is holding the preview, will the image be stretched to fill the surface?
3. Can anyone think of anything else that may be related specifically to the Droid that could be causing me problems?
Just installed the Amazon MP3 app, that I love. I have it on my 16gb microsd card I just pulled from my beloved G1. Installed and runs super fine!
Had to extract it (apk file) once from a different G1 rom, since it was not in the rom I installed- awhile back.
since the Desire supports USB tethering, this might be a bit stupid, but does it support the xbox by any chance since I was wondering if it could be used like an adapter to connect to XBOX LIVE
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have application that communicates with web server through REST. It works fine on a phone when connected via WiFi but does not work correctly when on 3G.
Not everything stops working. I'm still able to use some functionality but for some reason some calls to rest return "" (empty response) very quickly. Once again when I'm on WiFi everything works fine.
Just to clarify:
1. I have data plan :)
2. Server I'm connecting to is accessible from Internet
I have the Samsung Captivate, and I'm having a bit of an issue with my company's Exchange server. I don't want to sync it with my phone, I prefer to keep my work email separate, but I do occasionally need to use the Outlook Web Access portal on the server. When I'm on any WiFi connection, and I browse to my server's OWA, I get the login prompt, and I can successfully log in and do whatever I need to.
However, when on 3g, I get simply "Access Denied" without a login prompt at all. I've tried rebooting the phone, killing the browser process, clearing the caches in the browser, etc. None of that works. I administer this server myself, and it works with my wife's iphone just fine, as well as other android phones in the office.

View 10 Replies View RelatedRunning into REALLY interesting problems with OpenGL ES. Basically when I start my program in 1.5 or 1.6 emulator, it works just fine but on HTC Hero 1.5 it does not. The problem is that the vertices are not being rendered but the gl.glClear() command is working just fine. I followed in with the debugger and it does go into the rendering function and such but still not rendering the vertices...
Here is the code in PasteBin (easier to read: http://pastebin.com/m706686e6 )
And here is the same thing pasted here:

Also I got my projection set in 2D ortho projection to match screen coordinates so that's why scale to 50,50 to actually make a bit bigger. I've tried using glDrawElements and glDrawArrays and nothing on the actual phone but works perfectly fine on the actual emulator. Any ideas where I might be going wrong? Why is the actual phone not rendering the vertices like the emulator is?
I've two phones, the HTC Magic and since today also the Motorola
Milestone.
While the Magic works perfectly, I'm not able to access the Milestone

Notes
USB Debugging is enabled on both phones. After changing the udev rules I did a "service udev reload" and
"adb kill-server" -> didn't help. I even tried to restart the whole machine. Without success.
I don't understand the tethering could someone give me a example on how it works?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been experiencing a rather frustrating issue with the 3G connection on my Desire which seems to work intermittently at best. When on H or WiFi the connection is fast and I am very happy. However when 3G is connected it rarely works and I usually receive a message to say there is no connection at all! I am connected via Orange just in case this is network specific.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 3 accounts in my HTC Desire. Gmail (or should I call this Google?) - the automatically saved emails that GMAIL keeps when you write to a person.
Phone - which are the phone numbers saved in my phone and
Facebook - So when I go to people, I see that there's like 4 categories when I press MENU and VIEW: SIM(0) ; Google(296); Phone(731) and Facebook (460)
Ok, first weird thing is that even if I choose to View only my Phone contacts, on searches and when I write an SMS, the suggestions include their Gmail and Facebook entries too- which is quite confusing because the reason I hid them is I only want to send an SMS (yeah I know theres an option "Only contacts with phone number"). Is this really the case? Next weird thing is that: Since some of my Phone contacts are actually my Gmail and FB contacts as well, I linked them from the phone app (I clicked Link in the Menu and chose their respective contacts). Okay, so in the list, I see the name of my Phone contact and at the same time if I click on their names I see email and FB info as well (the FB profile pic shows! neat!).
However, I found out that when I try to click on Edit it still let me choose which contact I will edit, in this case: Google or Phone - I thought I linked you 2 already, so it follows that if I add an info, like, another number then it (the Phone app) should assign it to the name as a whole, right? Apparently, the Link command in Phone app only makes you "see" one name in the list- but in other processes still treats your contacts separately. Okay good- at least I know now. But When I try to Delete the contact in Phone it also deletes the Google contact but Facebook contact remains. Does it really treat them separately or as one- basically the problem is that users need to know how the Phone app actually does it's process of syncing. Or at least wouldn't it make sense, for the system to ASK you which account you would want to delete the same way it asked which one you wanted to edit (as my experience did above)? Something like "Do you wanna delete: Google, Phone or ALL?" (I know Facebook is a bit complicated so it's ok if Facebook contact editing and deletion is not totally synced for now).
Anyone know if the Gmail Notifier works on the Desire

Issue: Internet works, but wont browse
I am having a slight issue with my new lovely HTC desire. I love this phone, but there are a few annoyances that I'd love to iron out.
Mainly, browsing the Internet. All of my apps work fine, all of my widgets update correctly, Facebook works, the market place is open for business: everything appears fine. However, occasionally, when I open the browser (Google is my homepage) and after I have typed what I would like to search, I am unable to press 'enter'. The enter button on the keyboard does nothing. When pressing the little magnifying glass in the browser: nothing.
I have found a workaround by copying my text and pasting it into the search on the HTC Desire itself (with the bottom right hand button on the phone itself) and this searches the Internet no questions asked.
Am I the only one experiencing this problem? It usually happens when I try to show off to my friends that, like the Lawnmower Man, I have immediate access to the Internet to answer their questions. But I embarrassingly get stuck waiting for it to work, having to cut, paste... I am losing kudos here....
Anybody have any probs with the power button? Got caught in a torrential downpour this afternoon to find my wallet and phone somewhat damp after being in my soaking jeans.Power button no longer works so effectively once the screen saver kicks in I cant unlock it. Thankfully its still within warranty so will take it back to get a replacement.This is the 2nd phone I've had that has suffered this prob. My previous phone, a dreadful Sony Ericsson died a death.Avoiding the rain is somewhat unavoidable when you live in Scotland. MakingTaking a phonecall in the rain is sometimes a necessary evil. I really have to question the build quality of some of the modern phones. Do they even test the use of phones in the rain? It seems somewhat of a basic function, and to have such a major malfunction with such minimal exposure to rain is quite disappointing to say the least, especially when it never came into direct contact.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI purchased a HTC Desire a few days ago and I think it's great. However, there is one thing that bothers me. I've been quite slow at joining the smartphone community, primarily due to all the reports/stories of high phonebills relating to internet usage. So, having got my hands on the phone its self - I thought I'd play with it for a while and stick to using my home wifi connection for downloading apps and playing with map applications etc.
The phone came pre-installed with Android 2.2 and therefore has this wireless hotspot app built in. So, to see how it worked, I enabled the feature and connected to the phone from my laptop.
My first surprise was that it worked. My laptop was connected to the phone and web pages were loading up on it. Realising that my phone was already set up to connect to my wireless router for internet access though, I figured that it was probably sharing that connection with my laptop. Well, at least that's what I was hoping...
At this point I unplugged my home modem/router and tried again. Fully expecting my laptop to complain about the lack of internet connectivity, I was quite shocked to find that web pages were loading up on my laptop and there's now a '3G' logo (with flashing up/down arrows) showing on the top status bar of the phone.
From what I've said here, my only conclusion is that my phone is transferring data over the mobile phone network, but considering that I don't have a data plan, how can this be? If I disable the hotspot feature (with my home router switched off), my phone cannot access the internet, but if I enable the wireless hotspot feature of the phone and connect to it - my laptop can.
My SIM card is from Tchibo Germany (o2 network).
Just got back from my hols where I used my (stock) N1 camera a lot. Got some great pics but a few certainly highlighted just how important touch-to-focus is to me. Was quickly reading a review of the Desire and read it has touch-to-focus. Was just wondering if anyone who is actually running the modaco desire ROM on their N1 can confirm whether this works? I'd also be interested to know if I could just use the desire camera app on a rooted N1 with Cynanogen? I'm rather partial to the stock appearance and not massively inclined towards Sense UI.
