LG Ally :: How To Read Available Memory Without Application?
Sep 26, 2010
I was curious how to read the available memory in the process manager screen. I don't know what the x+x in x also x in x means. I don't want to install an app that eats up memory to see how much memory is being used. I'm not trying to control how it uses memory but, I do like to see how much memory there is available after I install and run new apps and/or widgets so I can try and only use lighter apps when possible.

There is a new update being pushed over the air to the Ally, the update fixes root so do not update if you want to keep velocity and/or root access!!!

Anyone else have this problem? You read an email (or delete an email) from Aol. Ally syncs to check for new emails, and the emails you have read or deleted pop up again as new emails. Extremely frustrating and inconvenient, and was wondering if anyone else has this problem, and if there's a solution. Spoke to LG tech support and their solution was to delete the Aol IMAP account and add it again as a POP3 account, then select the 'Delete From Server' checkbox. (and they're supposedly working on a fix. this problem cropped up after i installed an update in August.) This solution seems to have solved that problem, but now it takes forever for Aol to sync with my Ally; and it drains the battery. I set up GMail to sync up with Aol, but it's not instantaneous. Sometimes i don't get new emails for 30 minutes or more. Not good for business. And the Aol mail mobile web page is slow.

I am coming from a BB phone so memory management was different. I was exploring the phone today and came across the Services running and saw that I had something like
Avail: 183MB+113MB in 23 Other 57MB in 4
I don't quite understand what this means with the plus and the "in" statement. Not too long afterwards, I checked and I was down to
Avail: 99MB+0B in __ Other 0B in __
Could someone explain to me the format of the available memory and secondly if I should be concerned that I was going down to 0 in the spots shown in the second example?

Hi. I am brand new to the android world. I just got an LG Ally. I am wondering how the memory works whenever you install an app. I have noticed that it goes onto the phone's internal memory. When i take a picture or video that gets saved onto the SD card. I dont have many apps and it seems like the internal memory is already starting to fill up. What happens when this happens? Will it rollover to the '" card or will i just get a "memory full" kind of message? I would rather have more memory for apps than for pics and videoany info is greatly appreciated.

I have downloaded a file from HttpConnection using the FileOutputStream in android and now its being written in phone's internal memory on path as I found it in File Explorer
/data/data/com.example.packagename/files/123.ics
Now, I want to open & read the file content from phone's internal memory to UI. I tried to do it by using the FileInputStream, I have given just filename with extension to open it but I am not sure how to mention the file path for file in internal memory, as it forces the application to close.

Is there any way that you can move files such as audio files to the internal memory without using a custom ROM? I'd like to transfer a notification alert sound from my SD card an put it on the phone itself.

I have the HTC incredible, and I would like for it to be able to read memory cards other than the micro sd. Specifically, I am interested in using Sony Pro Duos and transferring pictures from the pro duo card to my device. Assuming I acquired the proper usb cables and then hooked a card reader up to the device, would this work?

I have a very large image and I only want to display a section the size of the display (no scaling), and the section should just be the center of the image. Because the image is very large I cannot read the entire image into memory and then crop it. This is what I have so far but it will give OutOfMemory for large images. Also I don't think inSampleSize applies because I want to crop the image, not lower the resolution.
Uri data = getIntent().getData();
Input Stream is = getContentResolver().openInputStream(data);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is, null, null);
Any help would be great?

If it's possible how about removing every stop application that you can not download from the marketplace? If the application isn't downloadable by preference leave it, if it can be downloaded at a later time remove them. I have some applications like car home, clock, gmail, and google talk that I never use.

Has anyone removed any or all of the calendar apps without causing any problems to the phone. I'd like to ditch all of them if I could because I will never use them, but I'd at least like to get rid of the corporate calendar. Just want to make sure the calendar applications are not needed for normal phone functioning.

I've noticed lately that some app recommender programs seem to get data off the android market. I'm wondering how I could retrieve information, such as screen shots, description, developer, number of downloads, rating, etc...
I've done many searches and I haven't found any solutions. It would be nice to be able to use that info to be able to see a rating for an app inside an app chooser, for example. Or perhaps be able to track changes and rating over time and version history, etc...
Is there an API to access that information? Is there a way to parse the data from a website? Or is there a complicated hack involved?

Regardless of the launcher when I try to add a widget and the list is about to show up I get a force close from the Settings app. Im assuming that the Widgets list is part of the settings app but I don't know what I can do to fix it. I've tried:
1 - Using Clockwork to fix permissions.

I was wondering if anyone has ever tried this new stock music player. I found (here:MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service or Mirror:new stock music.rar in the .rar file I included 2 things;
1. A Program called system app backupper
2: Data file for System app Backupper.
In order to install the new music app you have to either push the music.apk file in the sysAppBackup folder included, or you can fallow these steps.
Warning: I am not responsible for any bricked or broken phones.
*requires root*
1. Download .rar file included in this post.
2. Unzip
3. Copy contents of the "new stock music" folder found in .rar to root of sd card so that the folder titled "sysAppBackup" and the file called com.bg.sab.apk is sitting in the root of your sd.
4. Install com.bg.sab.apk to phone. this will install system app backupper to phone.
5. Open the app you just installed. when open it will ask you if you want to be in "backup" or "restore" mode.
6. Choose "restore"
7. On the screen it will just say "music.apk" (unless you already use the app) click on that to check it.
8. Press the menu button, and than press restore.
9. Restart phone.
10. All done.
If phone goes into boot logo loop, reboot into recovery and than clear cache/dalvik cache and fix permissions! I did not make any of these app, nor know who did. I would give credit to the developers if I knew who they were.

I have an application that can read and write txt files to the phones sdcard. By using this code for reading files:
@Override protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) { super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id); mFileNameOpen = files.get(position);
String st = null; mVector.clear();
notepad.mNewEmpty = false; try { File f = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/ notepad/"+mFileNameOpen); FileInputStream fileIS = new FileInputStream(f);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fileIS));
do { st = in.readLine();
mVector.add(st);
}while(st!=null); in.close(); ...
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) e.printStackTrace();
and this to write them:
try { File root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
File fileCheck = new File(root, "/notepad/" + fileNameSave + saveExtension);
boolean exists = fileCheck.exists();
if (!exists) { if (root.canWrite()) { File textFile = new File(root, "/notepad/" + fileNameSave + saveExtension);
FileWriter textWriter = new FileWriter(textFile);
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(textWriter);
out.write(SAVEAS); out.close(); written = true;
} else { written = false; else { written = true; showMaybe = 1; showDialog(DIALOG_SAVE_EXISTS);
catch (IOException e) {Log.v(getString(R.string.app_name), e.getMessage());
This has been working fine on my Tattoo and all the emulators I've tried this on. But it does not seem to be working on moto droid. Is there something different to consider with moto droid? Or have I missed something in the manifest maybe?

Just spent 20 minutes searching for this to no avail, so sorry if answered elsewhere. I am rooted. I need a good battery app that will also read my extended battery. Maybe one that has two profiles, and accurately reads both. I'd also prefer percentages in all numbers, not just 10s, but not a deal breaker. Anything out there? The descriptions on the apps themselves are not very in-depth and don't want to keep installing and taking off.

I want to read a Open Office Document spreadsheet (.ods file) from my android application. I need to basically loop through the first two columns & store them in a SQLite database. I am able to do this by reading a regular text file stored in res/raw using the following code:
InputStream is = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.my_text_file);
But no clue how to do the same for an .ods file. I searched through SOF & found a reference to jOpenDocument . But they talk about libraries that are not part of the android SDK & I don't know what to do with these.

I'm developing an application to read signal strength of 3G, GSM, Wifi.
Is there any classes that provides us with the RSSI of 3G signal and GSM signal?
The WifiManager Class provides the RSSI for wifi, but I can't find any for 3G and GSM. If there is no classes provided, is it difficult to start from scratch?
