HTC Incredible :: No Service And CityID Restarted?

Jun 25, 2010

This is where it gets weird. When I tried to call out from my DINC, it would start dialing, then simply stop and say "call ended". During this apparent outage, CityID (worst crapware ever!) reactivated itself after a month and a half of being done with my trial (got the DINC on 4/29). Even though my calls weren't going through, CityID was identifying the location of the numbers I was trying to call.

After a couple hours, service resumed, everything was fine and CityID stopped working again (thankfully). When I go to my call history, all the numbers that I tried to call during that time have the city and state information from CityID. All the numbers before and after do not? Weird! I thought after the two week trial it was supposed to go dormant? I hope it never reactivates again as it has never, not once, been correct regarding the location of the number calling.

Android :: Make Sure Service Is Restarted?

Aug 31, 2010

I have an Android application with a background running Service. When the Service crashes or gets killed by Android I can see that Android tries to restart it again. However the Service never actually restarts, I can see Android scheduling the restart but it new actually happens.

Android :: Prevent Service From Being Restarted By System?

Sep 10, 2010

From what I can tell -- if you return START_NOT_STICKY from Service.onStartCommand(...), the system should not restart a service if it crashes. However, I'm not seeing that behavior -- any ideas on what could be restarting the service?

Android :: OnStart() Not Called When Service Restarted After Being Killed?

Jul 25, 2009

I have a service that needs to hold a persistent TCP connection, think IM. I'm reluctant to use setForeground() - the service being down temporarily isn't that big a deal, and I am assume I can trust that I'll be run again once memory is available, correct? The problem here is this. The service was started via startService() before being killed. However, when it is restarted, only onCreate() is executed. This makes it hard to continue, because starting work onCreate() means I can't even bind to the service (to say query it's status) without it doing so. Is this a bug or per design? What is the status of the service after it is being restarted? Is it consider "started" by the system, i.e. waiting for a call to stopService()?

Android :: Crashed Service Restarted By System Doesn't Call OnStart

Mar 31, 2009

I have noticed that if my background service crashes the system will automatically restart the service after 5 seconds. This is great, but I have noticed that only the onCreate method gets called and not the onStart method. Does this mean the service is properly restarted or do I need to do something special in the onCreate method to make sure it is? I did have my initialisation logic in the onCreate method and my starting service logic in the onStart method but it looks like it will all have to be in the onCreate method.

Android :: Service Restarted With All Unfinished Intents That Returned Start Status START_REDELIVER_INTENT?

Nov 1, 2010

Suppose you have a download service that downloads files asynchronously. For each download intent received it will put the URL of the file to download and the start ID into a job queue and return START_REDELIVER_INTENT. A worker thread then processes that list and calls stopSelf with the start ID it just processed. My question is: If the service's process gets killed and the service restarted, will the service receive all the intents (with the URLs) it hasn't called stopSelf on before it was killed or does the service receive the last intent only? It seems the API docs are ambiguous on this.

The docs say

"if this service's process is killed while it is started [...], then it will be scheduled for a restart and the last delivered Intent re- delivered to it again [...]", indicating that only the last intent gets redelivered (which would be terrible in this use case), but they also say "The service will [...] be re-started if it is not finished processing all Intents sent to it (and any such pending events will be delivered at the point of restart)."

Motorola Droid X :: CityID Causing 2.2 Upgrade Problems

Sep 17, 2010

I removed CityID without making a backup after root(I know dumb), but I was able to find an .apk of it off the net to download but am still getting a assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/CityID.apk" error. I am assuming its file permission error, if so, what are the file permissions supposed to be and how do I change them? Or if there is a way I can goto a stock Droid X straight from the factory that would work as well. (I have tried doing the stock factory restore from the phone itself but it fails to re-install CityID).

HTC EVO 4G :: PAW Server + Https - Restarted Application

Oct 12, 2010

I just ran across the 'PAW Server' app and it's pretty neat so far. I don't want to use it with http though, so I enabled https and restarted the app. It doesn't work at all now. I enabled bluetooth so I could manually update the config file on the sdcard and restart the server in http mode. It instantly started working again. I've tried a couple of different ports but can't get the https mode to work at all. The docs say that it will be slower which is understandable, but since it's not working at all I have to assume that I'm doing something wrong and missing something obvious. Anyone else using the PAW Server app with https enabled?

HTC Droid Eris :: Phone Restarted Itself

May 10, 2010

I was on this very forum typing a reply using Uber Keyboard. I was using dolphin. All of a sudden the options screen for Uber Keyboard (BTW, I don't like it anymore. only got it for the speech to text feature) popped up and kindof self navigated to a deeper menu. I tried using the back button. This cause all of the buttons/keys to light up full brightness and then the screen went black, but the keys stayed lit. I tried pressing the end key but nothing happened. Then all of a sudden the the Android and Verizon splash logo's came up (very fast, not anywhere near as long as when you power on the phone). The phone came back to a normal state as it usually does from a power on and everything is fine.

Android :: Can Mediaplayer Be Restarted When Surfaceview Is Being Recreated

Nov 17, 2010

I have an activity (say activity A) which displays video using a mediaplayer, rendered in a surfaceview.
The use case is to pause the video, start another activity (say activity B), then come back to activity A.
Activity A is stopped but not destroyed when going to B, which is good.

The surface view (since not visibile) IS destroyed (as observed from the notification callbacks). When coming back to activity A, and restarting the mediaplayer using start(), the media player does play back the audio, but video is not seen. Errors like this one are output on Logcat:

CODE;......

Unfortunately, using the new instance of SurfaceHolder as provided by surfaceCreated() doesn't help (i.e. provides the same error).

I have read in various posts a solution would be to reset the mediaplayer and restart it completely, however it is not efficient, as the end user would have to wait for the whole player preparation cycle + seekTo last position within the stream.

As shown with the fact the audio plays back, it should be a matter of plumbing between the the video decoder and the new surfaceholder/view.

What should be the best solution (best = fastest) to resume video playback when resuming the activity?

HTC Desire :: Browser Showing Last Opened Page When Restarted?

May 15, 2010

This is my first ever smart phone and android phone so excuse me if this is a silly question! I've noticed that after closing the web browser (well hitting the home key as there is no obvious exit option) and then re-opening it, the browser shows the page I was last at which makes me wonder if it's still running in the background and consuming battery (same with the PDF viewer). Am I right in thinking this and if so how do I close it?

Android :: Getting Network Restarted After Phone Starts Sleeping

Apr 10, 2009

I have a long lived service, it wakes up (via the AlarmManager) at intervals and connects to a web server. If the phone goes to sleep and one of my polling intervals happens the phone wakes up enough to let me attempt to connect to the network but the ConnectionManager claims there is no network. Given the system log this is correct, it was torn down. Pushing "Menu" once is enough to get the network back up and then my service can connect. How do I get the network to reconstruct itself?

HTC Incredible :: Poor Incredible Sound Quality - Poor Verizon Customer Service

May 26, 2010

I (like hundreds of others) have had a call quality problem with the two Droid Incredibles I purchased for my wife and myself when they were released on April 30th. Verizon recognized that there was a problem and replaced both devices with ones manufactured about a month later (5/02) and the same issue with poor voice quality continued.

We love the device EXCEPT for the lack of ability to understand callers. So, I asked Verizon to extend our 30-day opt out to give them an opportunity to work out the issues with this device. I just received a call from Verizon customer service (which I could barely understand) and was told they would not extend the 30 day period and my option was to live with the poor sound quality or switch to another device. Verizon has no other devices that were interested in at this time so well be canceling these two lines (and one other) and returning to T-Mobile. T-Mobile may not have the best coverage, but they do have great customer service, unlike Verizon.

HTC Incredible :: No Data Service After Froyo

Aug 31, 2010

I updated to Froyo this morning.I noticed I wasn't getting any data service on my phone so I ran the *228 thing. Phone rebooted and problem was solved.Sort off.I turned the phone off at lunch 'cuz I wanted to see the awesome boot animation. When the phone turned back on, there was no data service. I've now found that if I do the *228 thing it fixes the problem, but only until I reboot again. I've gone into the wireless and network settings and Mobile Network is checked and stuck at turning on. Do I need to do a factory reset to fix this? I've got a back up with My Backup Pro so it's not a huge deal if I do.
