HTC Incredible :: Lacking Support For Google Docs
Sep 8, 2010
Ok, so this is more of an Android thing than Inc, but the two things that I think are still sorely lacking are support for Google Docs, and some form of Google virtual drive (like DropBox). On the Docs front, I realize there's GDocs, but since Google Docs is a Google initiative, it'd be nice to have an official app. And on the storage front, it'd be great to have access to the same storage that I have with picasa, Gmail, and google docs, as a desktop accessible drive, with an android component.Anyone know of any solutions other than GDocs and DropBox to achieve these.

I am new Android user and very happy with HTC Desire. However, frustrated that common Office apps not able to edit e-mailed docs, or send edited docs. Have looked at Quick Office; Documents To Go; & Office Suite Pro. Anybody know of a suitable app - this seems like a significant limitation to me. Adam

I wonder if sometimes I don't get caught up in the hype of all the features and cool stuff and forget that first and foremost this is a phone and expect that part to be good, too. I'd love to hear opinions from those who already have received the Incredible as far as call quality and reception issues. Hoping to hear good news because I really want this! Yes, I will keep in mind that this review was only the opinion of the reviewer and it is actually nice to hear the bad with the good to help make an informed decision.

I am very impressed with Talk To Type's accuracy. It's great for chat and many informal things but seems to be missing some features that would have been very easy to implement.1. Automatic capitalization - no brainer - it should capitalize obvious proper names, the word "I" and the beginning of every sentence, or at least this should be an option. 2. Automatic punctuation - it should be an option to place a period at the end of each phrase (defined by when you stop speaking) and if the beginning word was "who", "what", "where", "when", "how", etc...it should be an option to automatically enter a question mark. I get that you can speak the name of the punctuation mark, but this option would make it more useful. 3. Numbers less than ten should be spelled out (e.g. "nine" instead of "9") It's so accurate compared to many that I've tried to use in the past, yet it doesn't have these super-basic and very easily implemented features. It makes it less useful for e-mail, especially corporate e-mail, where the mail needs to not resemble a high school text message.

I am attempting to integrate with Google Docs.(At the moment just trying to get a list of documents). I have issued the ClientLogin request and get an authorization token.I can tell the authorization key is working because if I do not pass that header, I get a 403 instead. Any reason why I would be getting a page not found? I am lost and not sure what else to try.I am not using the java client libraries since I am running on Android and want to keep it lightweight.

So maybe I'm asking a question already answered, but, is there an app for Google Documents? Here's why I'm asking, and why my question is specific to me:I play a lot of poker. I need to start tracking my sessions and keeping accurate records. Problem is, in my casino, I get NO service, eliminating the ability to get to and edit my documents at the table. I need an app that allows me to edit a document and sync it later once I have a signal.

Im using a Hero and was disappointed that I cant zoom in when viewing my presentation in Google Docs mobile using the default browser. When I pinch zoom or double tap, the control buttons on the slide enlarge but the slide stays the same size also, I found out that if I turned off javascript in the browser settings, I can zoom in the slide as usual but then the control buttons stop working.

I have successfully edited a spreadsheet in google docs. I thought it can't be done, but I was quite surprised that I was able to edit my xls files online with my Evo.I'm not sure if this was general knowledge. But I was quite happy to discover I can edit google docs via browser.

I am working on an Android app that uses the gdata-java-client to download documents for display only. So far I have an application that authenticates with the services and displays a list of user documents. When the user selects a document another query is made for the documents itself. A request for txt, html, rtf and doc files works well, however when I request a spreadsheet in either .csv or .xsl format the result is unexpected.

Is there any Android app that can automatically copy content from a news article website and paste it into a Google Docs document?I want to be able to archive news articles for future reference. Currently the best I can do is use Delicious but that only saves the URL (which could expire).

I've just downloaded the latest update for GooMemo. Great news - it now will sync with Google Documents!GooMemo - Android Notes application.The developer had originally planned that this would be part of a paid-for premium version, but very kindly he has released it for free.For those of us Palm refugees who miss having memos synced between handheld and desktop I think this is the only application that does it properly. I haven't played with it very much yet, but it seems to work very well. In Google Documents all your memos are put into a spreadsheet with a different sheet for each category and each memo on its own row. This is maybe not the prettiest of options, but it makes it all very transparent, and easy to export your notes in CSV form if you want to move them elsewhere. The only slight irritation I've had is that it won't remember my Gmail password and I have to rekey it each time I want to sync.

My documents show up in the goggle docs app, however when I click it to open the document is blank. This is the case for every document I have. I just checked on my home computer and it's still there, however why doesn't it appear on my phone? I even went to the Google doc website on my phone and every document was blank. I tried restoring w/ titanium and didn't have any luck with that. I tried opening the application and clearing data, however after reassigning my accounts I still had blank documents. The title of all 15 documents shows up, but it's all blank

I'm considering switching to an Android device after using Windows Mobile for years and years... the new Droid from Verizon really looks impressive and I'm not real high on some of the new Windows Mobile devices coming out.One of my needs though will be to read, edit, and save 2007 Office documents. However, I'd also like to have my documents auotsync'd with Google Docs. Is something like this possible?

I'd like to allow my Android app to upload a spreadsheet document to Google Docs. Using a simple Uri request:
Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://docs.google.com/DocAction?action=updoc&hl=en");
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(intent);
And this page appears as blank on a phone (must use code not compatible with phones).
I've looked into the Google Docs procedures for uploading from a Web Service. They require first authenticating the user and retrieving an AuthSub authorization to be used in a following POST request (including the AuthSub token) to actually upload the doc. This is easy from a Web Service that can guarantee a URL to return the AuthSub to, but how about on a mobile phone? Currently thinking that I'll use UrlConnection, use getHeader(String) to grab the AuthSub, then build the entire document dynamically like this:
POST /feeds/default/private/full HTTP/1.1
Host: docs.google.com
GData-Version: 3.0
Authorization: <your authorization header here>
Content-Length: 73612
Slug: test.xls
Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet1">
<Table ss:ExpandedColumnCount="4" ss:ExpandedRowCount="4" x:FullColumns="1" x:FullRows="1">
<Row>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">IN</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">OUT</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">TIME</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">SUBTOTAL</Data></Cell>
</Row>
<Row>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Value</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="Number">123</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Example</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Example</Data></Cell>
</Row>

A few months ago Google sent top market developers a feww phone (Droid or Nexus).I was one of them and received a Droid.I just now called in to activate the Droid on my Verizon account and was told that it is not activated.They said that the ESN number is tied to a business account and currently active.Verizon said the only thing I can do is to contact Google, who sent me the phone, and work it out with them.The paperwork with the phone came with no numbers or email addresses.I have tried calling the Nexus support line, they could not direct me anywhere. I have tried emailing the automated robots that sent me emails about the phone.Is there anyone at Google that I can contact that would be able to help with this?

I have noticed sports apps are lacking. ESPN, SI and Fox Sports all have apps but none of them are available on Android. I also saw a new one advertised tonight during the Lakers game called SportsNow, I checked their website and it is only for iphone. I do have Live scores installed and it is pretty good but I want more choices.

I'm new here and I want to start things out by asking you guys about certain things Android is lacking. As many of you know, the OS is only a year old but is rapidly evolving. I don't own an Android device yet (I currently have the HTC HD2). I'm waiting for Android to grow considerably bigger so I won't have to worry about future upgrades. Android is an awesome OS and a lot of devices carrying the OS is very good, but I feel there are some things is still lacking. In your opinions, what are the things still lacking? I can only think of one (only because my brain is dried out from work): full flash support. I guess you can also add: more memory but this is more of a micro-SD card issue instead of Android.
