View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to develop a game, so I need to know elapsed time at lots places in my game. For example, to measuring FPS. I see there is some example use "System.currentTimeMillis" to measure elapsed time. But I see the warning on document: http://developer.android.com/intl/zh-TW/reference/java/lang/System.ht... "This method shouldn't be used for measuring timeouts or other elapsed time measurements, as changing the system time can affect the results." So, if this method should not be used for measuring elapsed time, then what will be suitable?

Can Google MAPS do this? If not, is there an app in the market that can do this? I am hitting the road tomorrow for a road trip and that would come in handy!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have tried searching the database for this and googled it and I couldn't find anything.
I'm not very experienced in Android, however, I am trying to develop an application. Within the application I want to check if the current time falls between time ranges
pseudo code
[HIGH]if (currTime > 9am AND currTime < 7pm)
{
//do this
}
else if (curTime>7pm AND currTime <10pm)
[Code]...
How can I determine if the current time is between two other time objects?
For example: current: 15:23, startTime: 22:00, endTime: 06:00. So the current time is not between this two other times, but this "23:47" is.
*I don't care about the date, only the time
I tried to do it like this:
Code:
Time startTime = getStartTime();
Time endTime = getEndTime();
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
Time now = new Time(c.getTimeInMillis());
[Code]...
but it dosen't work well. their aren't any errors but it just dosen't work.
To be more precise the problem is that 15:35.after(22:00) return true... and I don't know why. I think that the problem is something with the dates but I don't know what
In my application I will be writing messages to a text file. When I am writing the messages I also want to include the time in it. How do i write in the current date and time? Must I use Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance()?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got the magic yesterday and so far I'm loving it. Just have a couple questions about texting. When I receive a text it usually tells me the time in eastern time though I'm pacific. However, my sent messages come up with the right time. This makes it so that threaded sms is kind of useless. Everything is all out of whack. Also, every once in a while it just won't even give me a time and there has been once or twice(after fiddling with it for a bit) that it gave me the right time but it just went back to the wrong time right after. Could this be a problem with the phone or is it rogers' fault? I'm assuming it's getting the time from the network and they have it wrong(meaning I can't fix it) but I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem.
Also, is there any way to make it vibrate when I receive a text? I feel dumb for asking this as it seems like it should be something really obvious but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
I've had the phone for a few days now, and today when I received an MMS (picturemail) from a friend, the timestamp was off by exactly 4 hours (I received at 8:32PM, but timestamp was 4:32PM), normally, not a big deal, but it throws off order in the messages because those it's my most recent message, it still shows in relation to messages I correctly received before 8:32PM but after 4:32PM. Anyone experience something similar, or have a solution?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am getting MMS (Pictures) from another Sprint user (both of us are on the east coast) who has a Touch Pro 2 running Windows 6.5 and every time I get an MMS message from him its back stamped 4 hours. So if he sends it at 8pm it gets time stamped at 4pm on my phone. When he sends me an SMS (text message) its is CORRECTLY time stamped at 8pm. This causes my threaded messaging to put his MMS all the way up in the thread. This is UNACCEPTABLE and either SPRINT or HTC should figure out what is going on with time stamps and there phone and software.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI live in the central time zone. This morning I woke up and my phone decided to adjust for daylight savings time by 2 hours instead of 1. I checked the time and date settings to find that the date settings were checked to "automatic". Somehow the phone decided I was in the Mountain time zone instead of central. why/how that would happen? If I uncheck the automatic, and manually change my time zone it works fine.

I'm just trying to find the way to get current time. But I don't want to use currentTimeMillis() method, because the current time on device may be wrong. Is there any way to make some request to the Internet to get right current time?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI need to get pure UTC time in application level. It should not be changed by user or location or anything else. When I try with System.currentTimeMillis() or getTime() of Date class, they always return value of local time. If user change date or time, the return value is also changed. I found handleEndOfInit method in android_modem.c (externalqemu elephony) and the method is like below. Probably, the variable "utc" is what I want.
1. Is the android_modem.c for emulator?? 2. If it is, I think there must be similar file for target. Where is it? 3. How can I get the "utc" value in my application?................

View 3 Replies View Relatedis there a way to use the System.currentTimeMillis(); to have convery that number into a basic output HH:MM in droid? I am using the sample code:
Toast.makeText(this,
String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis()),

That outputs the current time in MS since the epoch. There has got to be a better way to do this rather than convert that large number and display the current time right?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI bough the Doggcatcher app to try and get an itunes podcast to work, but it didn't. Today I realized I hadn't uninstalled it yet, so I went to the market to uninstall it. I bought it yesterday around 8:00pm. I tried refunding and uninstalling however I was told they were not able to refund me "At this time" and to try again later. I uninstalled it anyway and tried refunding it an hour later (now) and it says "Your purchase could not be refunded." I thought I had 24 hours, why can't I get a refund on it? It doesn't work for me and I have no use for it, however I have plenty of other use for the $7 I paid for it. Anyone know of a workaround? WHat happens if the 24 hour mark passes and it never allowed me to refund it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy calls to getFromLocationName() always fail the "first" time I start my app. I catch the IOException which has reason:
Unable to parse response from server
Then I make a second call and it succeeds. Once things are "awake" all future calls to getFromLocationName() succeed, it's just that first one, and there is a ton of latency.
I haven't run this on a device yet, just in the emulator. This seems like a network problem, but it is so reproducible I'm thinking I'm not initializing something properly. I'm using Android SDK 1.1.
