I have a Verizon Droid incredible which is rooted and running android 2.2. I keep getting an OTA update request from verizon which I keep dismissing but it comes back like 10 times a day. It's really annoying so I tried to just run the update and it freezes. Then I'm back to the annoying update message. How do I make it go away for good?

I'm having an issue with a config activity for a widget. According to the dev docs, if I specify a configuration activity than the onUpdate method of the AppWidgetProvider doesn't get called until after you request an update once you've completed the configuration activity. For me its happening in reverse, the onUpdate method of the AppWidgetProvider gets called first, followed by the configuration activity. Then the onUpdate method is never called after completion of the config activity even though I request it explicitly. I tried with level 4 and level 7 API, same result. Here is some of the source:
Manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.chris.android.swidget"

<activity android:name=".SWidgetConfigure">

</intent-filter> </activity>
<receiver android:name=".SWidgetProvider" android:label="@string/ widget_name">
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/swidget_info"/> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
</intent-filter> </receiver>
<service android:name=".service.PUpdateService" />
</application> <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
</manifest>
swidget_info.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <appwidget-provider

android:updatePeriodMillis="86400000"
android:initialLayout="@layout/swidget_layout"
android:configure="com.chris.android.swidget.SWidgetConfigure" >
</appwidget-provider>
I can include source of the onUpdate method from the AppWidgetProvider activity and the onCreate method of the configuration activity if necessary, but they are both being called find its just the order they show up on the emulator is wrong.
I registered a PendingIntent to requestLocationUpdates(provider, minTime, minDistance, PendingIntent). But when my broadcast receiver receives this intend, how do I remove this request with removeUpdates(PendingIntent)? The receiver doesn't hold a reference to the original PendingIntent.

I'm based in the uk and use t mobile as my network provider, contacted them but informed me i'd have to go through sony ericsson itself, spoke to somebody on work experience by the sounds of things, couldn't be bothered to help me, the best advice I actually received was to turn off phone, remove battery, restart phone, try to download the software update of the settings menu, did this but had the connect to your pc and try this message, the guy just said thats all that can be done to resolve this.
this Android code worked fine before, but i'm having problems for some reason. here is the request i'm trying to make: https://www.google.com/reader/api/0/token. i'm getting 400:Bad Request as a response, and i'm not sure why. isn't this the correct URL for requesting a token? the auth token is being passed as a header in all requests now, and i can request feed list, and it works just fine, so there's nothing wrong with the auth code. what gives? in addition, i can request a token in a normal browser, like Chrome, and get a token as a response body. so the request itself is not the problem. i just can't figure out what is wrong with my requests in code...

I don't know where I am going wrong with the request. I am using AsyncTask to send the request to the server. The request also uses a token which I receive when I login to the webpage. All this is clear in the code below. This is part of the process in the doInBackground() function of the Asynctask:
BufferedReader in = null;
JSONObject token = Login.getToken(); // Token received after login, used in the cookie
try {
r = token.get("session_token").toString();
} catch (JSONException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

I own a Xiaomi MI2S, running MIUI-3.8.16 @ Android version 4.1.1.JRO03L with Baseband version CEFWMAZM-2.0.128 017.
From my phone provider (Tele2) i have to dial a 1 (one) before my PIN-code when traveling abroad.
The code is accepted, I can be called and i can send and receive SMS messages.
However i cannot make phone-calls...
The error (?) is "DIAL request modified to SS request" and (very short) "not connected"

View 5 Replies View RelatedI already use easytether for internet access on the go, what i need is an app that will allow me to tether my phone and dial a specific number of my choosing. I run a termninal program on my pc that connects to a remote terminal via land line that uses typical rs-232 communications, but easytether or pdanet do not allow dialing of specific numbers. I use a LG VX8360 with the drivers (LG CDMA USB mondem driver) and this gives me the option in my terminal program on my PC to select the LG phone and as modem and the terminal then dials which ever phone number i choose.

Any one able to make and app like this? I believ essentially the phone needs to be displayed in the phone modem options under control panel to ensure that it will be available to the terminal application. The terminal app is Procomm Plus.
I'm looking for an app, but don't know if it exists. Basically what I want is an app that I can but a little disclaimer blurb, or something similar on and then have my customer sign it, all on the phone without the need for paper. If this could also be a part of a data base to keep track of customer info, that would be better.
View 2 Replies View RelatedTry a game I've released on an Evo? A user has reported that the controls are the wrong way round on the device. Like most arrogant developers :) I initially thought "dumb user error", but I suppose it *might* draw with the Y axis reversed.
The game is Pocket Racing Lite. Touching the left side of the screen should turn the car anti-clockwise, and the right side - clockwise.
The things that sometimes a brute force shake would be most helpful for and that I would pay money to have my phone do:
1. Shake to full brightness. When it's too bright to see the screen, it's a PITA to try to get the brightness turned up.
2. Shake to current phone call. Occasionally, I exit the phone app and it's frustrating not to be able to hop back over there quickly.
3. Shake to unlock. It's annoying to always be swiping when I just want to quickly check something on my phone. A quick shake would be much easier as an option.
I'm having this error every time i try to log in into any site:
Page is not available error code 400 bad request
The browser opens up pages flawlessly except for the log in part. I purged the cache, cookies and everything but still no luck.
It's on 3G connection. Haven't tested it on a wifi yet.
It seems that the HTTPS sites are causing the problem. Can't log in into Facebook through the browser, neither into www.google.com.

View 7 Replies View RelatedWith 2.2 we got the market feature to update all which will just update all of the apps that have outstanding updates in the market.
What I cannot figure out is how to stop one particular app from updating, specifically I do not want to update the Facebook app since there are many reviews saying it is a big battery drainer and I do not use the app anyway.
Also, anytime I download a new app from the market, it automatically starts the download of the Facebook update, so I have to cancel it or if I don't catch it in time I have to uninstall the update. For both instances it just appears in my update queue again and I have the same problem next time.
So basic question is: Is there any way to select an app to not automatically update with the update all feature, or can we turn off the update all feature?
The download process will start on its own then the handset will reset good luck.
