I just upgraded from my old Droid X to a LG Spectrum.
Now whenever I connect it to USB, for some reason it won't show up in DDMS or Eclipse. I downloaded the USB driver from LG, and tried every kind of USB mode on the device. And yes I have USB debugging on.

I accepted that it was bug in Helios but I now find that I'm now getting the same error under Eclipse 3.5
When I send a location from the DDMS perspective using the emulator control tab. I have a standard listener:
onLocationChanged(Location location){...}
If I break on the first line of this, having sent the lat/lon pair of 53.5/-3.0 from the DDMS tab, then the mLatitude/mLongitude in the location argument have changed to 53.508833/-3.005000 (6 dec places only shown).
The Android SDK is 2.2 in both and the target is Google APIs level 7. Does anybody else experience this or could offer a possible explanation? (It amounts to quite a big error in terms of metres on the map.)
My Eclipse working good for me but today when i try to lunched emulator and open DDMS for uploading some files in "File explorer" nothing show.Tab "Device", "File explore" empty...!

I have the USB Debugging checked under Development on the phone and I can see virtual devices I create just fine in DDMS but never anything at all for Backflip.
Does anyone know of something else that needs to be done? I see some things talking about special tasks for Linux but I am running Microsoft Windows 7!
Although the DDMS plugin is installed (verified by checking the installed plugins) in Eclipse, it is not showing up in the Perspective (which is showing only JAVA & DEBUG).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to check my program code for time consuming operations. I thought DDMS is the best tool to achieve that.
However, I cant see Threads, Heaps and so on. It tells my to select a client. But I dont know where other than the Devices Tab, which doesn't take effect.
What do I have to do? Is there maybe something wrong with my ADB setup (But LogCat works fine)?
I think I must be missing something really basic here, but if my program dies, DDMS doesn't tell me which line it died on - all the stack references are inside the Android source code giving "source not found" errors.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have seen this problem off and on while running the Eclipse (Galileo) under Fedora 11-13, whether the target is my device or an emulator. But now with my new device, the HTC T-Mobile G2 (Android 2.2), I see it much more frequently: I successfully download the app (complete with lots of Log.d() calls), the system successfully launches it, but the LogCat pane in the DDMS perspective is completely blank.
Sometimes, only sometimes, I seem to be able to kick it into action by clicking on the tool for Debug (the little bug one). But that doesn't even work all the time. Worse yet, it forces me to restart the whole program, which is very cumbersome.
And yes, I did remember to connect the device and make sure the device shows up under "adb devices", AND make sure that is the device the ADT downloaded to. I can even hit breakpoints in the code.
I suppose I could try relying only on the debugger, but I put a lot of work into writing those Log.d statements in the right place, it would be a giant leap backwards to do without them now. So any suggestions concerning what the problem might be, workarounds, or how to find relevant bugs logged against either ADT, SDK or the G2, would be welcome.
Google searches such as "android ddms logcat" have not helped so far.
I have also considered running ddms from the commandline, but the instructions on how to do this wtihout conflicting with the port already chosen by ADT for running DDMS are not clear enough to inspire confidence: so I always quit Eclipse before running the command line version of ddms. But then I lose the handy ability (provided by Eclipse) of navigating my source code while reading the log, so this too, is an inferior solution. Perhaps if someone can connect a few more of the dots in Google's instructions on this by explaining how to get the device and command-line DDMS to agree on a port while still running Eclipse, that would be a good solution.
I'd like to check for memory leaks in my Android app using the DDMS feature in Eclipse. When I launch an emulated device, the threads display properly for the emulated device, starting with 8600 and up.
However, when I connect my Droid to the PC, the device shows up just fine in DDMS. The logcat is generated correctly, and I can view the file structure. However, threads do not display. I get "no client selected" in the Threads pane, and there is no drop-down icon next to the device listing.
Do I need to change some particular setting in Eclipse? Is this maybe a driver issue?
I have two phones, one running 1.5 and the other on 1.6. When I connect the 1.6 device via usb, DDMS recognizes it and in the top-left pane shows: HT842....... | Online | 1.6, debug
It then lists the individual processes, I can select them and use various tools like allocation tracker.
But when I connect the 1.5 device, DDMS recognizes it but shows: HT95A....... | Online | 1.5
But it does not show any of the processes on the device, so I am not able to do use allocation tracker and such. The sysinfo tab works, and I can monitor logcat with filter and such in the bottom pane.
What am I missing here? Obviously the 1.5 device has USB debugging enabled. Why does it not show 'debug' in DDMS? I'm using SDK 1.5_r2 on linux (Ubuntu 9.04), if that makes a difference.
I have created an hprof file by inserting the statement Debug.dumpHprofData("/sdcard/myapp.hprof"); in my app's code; I have then run the hprof file through hprof-conv and opened the converted file in Eclipse.
Following the advice of the MAT "Cheat Sheet" I have obtained an analysis of my app's memory usage by going to "Leak Identification -> Component Report" entering "com.prepbgg.*" and hitting Finish.
I know that my app is consuming large amounts of memory: in particular at the stage where I called dumpHprofData it had a one megapixel bitmap object and a canvas that must have consumes several hundred KB. (I also suspect that it is leaking significant amounts of memory because performance degrades severely after the screen has been rotated a few times.)
However, the Component Report for com.prepbgg.* shows total memory of only 38.7KB. The Histogram view shows for android.graphics.Bitmap (presumably this is the total of all apps including mine) 404 objects and Shallow Heap 12,928. Is that 12,928 bytes?
Clearly, my app consumes more than 38.7KB and the Bitmap far more than 12,928 bytes. Where am I going wrong? How can I see the total memory consumed by my app?
I'm using Windows 7 and installed the 64 bit version of Eclipse 3.5.2. I then installed the Android ADT plugin, but when I try to configure it in the Windows > Preferences dialog, the Android Plugin doesn't show up in the left pane. Instead I see DDMS. This prevents me from specifying the location of the Android SDK (unless there is another way) to give me the appropriate templates and such.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomehow I've screwed up my Eclipse installation. Used to be if I added a new instance of an Android object (say a TextView) and I right clicked on the error, it would offer to add the import. Also if I had an Android object and typed it followed by a period, it would show me all the allowed functions. Now it doesn't do either, just shows me java info. Don't know what I did, since this used to work. I updated everything, but still no joy.

I have an LG spectrum and I want to root it very badly. However, with an android 4.0 update in the near future, I am afraid that rooting my phone will not allow me to get ice cream sandwich in about a month or so.
I am planning on rooting manually, using an article I found.
Before I root though, I would like to know if I can (or need to) unroot in order to receive an OTA update android 4.0 from verizon or if I need to take my phone in to get fixed for any reason.

Lg mobile support tool cannot detect my phone while it is download mode. My phone is in security mode so I can not boot it.
I have tried switching ports and usb cords. not sure what else to do at this moment.
When going from 3.02 to 4.04 on the Spectrum, the phone pulls an updated file. The update file is this: (remove the spaces in the link. I don't have a high enough thread count to post links yet)

The file itself can be opened with WinRAR, but shows that it was signed by SignAPK.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm new to eclipse and android, so I have not the correct experience, by now. I'd like to know which are the tipical debugging methods.
emulator ddms junits
I'd like to do step-by-step using eclipse-rcp, emulator and ddms.
I can see in DDMS perspective the thread of Helloworld example running.
I change perspective to debug and I set breakpoint, but the application doesn't stop.
Probably a stupid question with an obvious answer, but I can't figure it out by myself. Tutorial (http://source.android.com/source/using-eclipse.html) says to go to the root of the downloaded platform, and first start emulator (it starts successfully), and then run $ddms.
But when I'm trying to do so, it fails: ~/mydroid$ ddms No command 'ddms' found, did you mean: Command 'dkms' from package 'dkms' (main) Command 'xdms' from package 'xdms' (universe) Command 'dds' from package 'dds' (universe) ddms: command not found
I'm having a problem where I am able to update the location in the Android Emulator from the Eclipse DDMS exactly once per time an activity is loaded, but no more.
I discovered the problem in my application where Activity2 (which accesses the GPS) is started by Activity1 (which doesn't do anything particularly interesting); when Activity2 is started, I can update the GPS position using the Manual input in Location Controls in the DDMS and everything works fine. However, then I get a LogCat message "TTFF: XXXX" where XXXX is an apparently random number, and then the GPS will no longer update. However, if I click the Back button in the emulator to return to Activity1, and then use Activity1 to restart Activity2, I can enter a new GPS location. But, I can't enter a second one; tries to do so result in no apparent action. My application works perfectly well on a real device with a real GPS signal.
To test things further, I closed and reopened the emulator, immediately closed my application (from Activity1, which doesn't do anything besides load an XML layout and attach an onClick listener to a button), and loaded Google Maps. I observed the same behavior here; I could send one position that Google Maps would respond to, but any subsequent attempts to update position fail. When I close Google Maps and reopen it, I am able to send exactly one more location update from DDMS.
The distance between my subsequent location updates is usually 0.02 degrees, but I have tried it with up to 5 degrees also. My application does not use ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION because I want to switch back and forth between testing on a physical device and testing on the emulator without having to update the manifest for each build, plus it seems like setting a permission for my application shouldn't have anything to do with Google Maps on the emulator.
I would try loading up a GPX path, but the DDMS seems broken there too: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...
What does the ddms do? I see it is the Dalvik Debug Monitor, but what does it do? I have my phone plugged in and it is just zooming along. I am not touching any buttons on the phone, and it appears the phone is asleep.
