I have a strange doubt:
Is it possible to intercept key presses of the hands free mic/headset(whatever it is called) of an Android mobile device?
I got a Sapphire Blue Seidio Innocase II surface for my Evo.

The last things i'll pick up (on launch day) will be a 2nd battery, and charging cradle for the phone + 2nd battery (if available anywhere (BB/RS/Sprint ETC ETC)).... if they're not available in town, i'll order online that same day.
I'll also be looking out for an HDMI cradle as well.
Evo, here I come. You are the most invested phone i've ever purchased for.
I recently got myself an Evo 3d mostly because I wanted to program some cool stuff for it.As I am a hobby robotbuilder I now wanted to control them over the phone. So I got an arduino USB host shield, flashed the demokit program on the arduino and wanted to install the demokit.apk on the Phone so I could play around a little. But it just wont work... Every app that has to do something with the oadk wont install.
Btw.: Its a vanilla HTC Evo 3D with current Firmware
I have the weirdest problem,
My phone told me I had an update to download, so I did, and I was pleased to find my wi-fi holds a lot better but not so pleased to discover my official headset is now not a compatible accessory apparently! I'm on an X10 mini locked to Orange. Funny thing also is that the phone doesn't seem to know what Baseband version it is :S
I cant find any news about this update anywhere! Anyone else had this yet?
I have been looking it up and I just cant seem to wrap myself around the onCreate and Bundles. I understand that the onCreate is called when the program starts but its how the Bundles get passed around and how they are pertinent. Can anyone try to put this into plain english because I cant seem to find it well described.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a little doubt, I spend data from Activity A to B with a bundle in the intent.Where I should declare the keys? In Activity A or B? Only to avoid confusion, I'm talking about the string that defines the data that will be set in the Bundle.Ex: public static final String KEY = "MyKey";
I declare always in the Activity A, but I think that if I could let all the keys in a file would be better, like keys.java or something like that.Obviously, this is nothing that is generating errors, just a doubt about convention, a thing that I consider very important in software development.
was wondering about the behavior of Bundles and serializable objects. If I put a serializable object into a bundle, what is serialized then, the reference to the object or the object itself? I always assumed that the object itself would be serialized to a byte stream when calling putExtra() and re-created from that representation when calling getSerializableExtra(), but I recently stumbled upon a piece of code that put an entire view into a Bundle in thread A, retrieved it from that bundle in thread B, performed a modification on it and this modification actually became visible. This can only happen if the reference to that view was stored, not the view itself, right? Otherwise, the modification had been applied to a copy of that view and would be meaningless.

View 5 Replies View RelatedLets say that I have an app that lets you browse through a listing of cars found in a Sqlite database. When you click on a car in the listing, it'll open up a view with the description of the car and a photo of the car.My question is: should I keep the photo in the database as a binary data column in the row for this specific car, or should I have the photo somewhere in the resources directory? Which is better to do? Are there any limitations of Sqlite in terms of how big a binary data column can be?The database will be pretty much be read only and bundled with the app (so the user wouldn't be inserting any cars and their photos).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently started a new company, Android App Bundles | Save Money on Droid Apps and we'll be selling android apps in prepackaged bundles at ridiculously low prices - I'm shooting for 15 - 20 apps per bundle at 29.99 - 39.99. Because the bundles will be available randomly, people can sign up to get an email notification (and only an email notification, that's the only time we'll email you).I want it to be completely fair for developers so they are taking home 60% of gross revenue and an additional 10% goes to charity. I'm hoping to release a bundle very soon.If you have a moment, I'd love feedback on the site and ideas to improve it. I put it up quickly to get the ball rolling.

The main points that I like to enjoy is: Droid beat out the phone that beat the iPhone, and the Droid got further in the brackets than any other Android OS phone Some of the progress is due to hardware, some due to following (over the Nexus'), but a lot due to the v2.01 (and now 2.1) version of the Android OS. Also, this poll is open ALL weekend - it does not close until April 5th, so we have tons of time...but then again, so does the Palm Pre. Let's have at 'em!

I don't care that it is kind of blocky as long as it has Android 2.0 or higher (including Google Maps Navigation). Seriously, the keyboard on it kicks the (edited by mod) out of the Droid. The keyboard on the Droid has been causing me serious grief because I do not like typing on the virtual keyboards and the physical keyboard is so flat and requires so much pressure to press one of the keys that it cramps my thumb up with any moderate usage. Has anyone heard anything at all about a release date?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been messing around with my phone for quite sometime and I've reached a road block that I can't quite figure out. I've previously and successfully put JRummy, Cyanogen and Bugless Beast on my phone, but suddenly out of nowhere, NOTHING works. I'm attempting to put a custom ROM on my phone and I've had little to no success.These are the steps I've taken:
Start at stock 2.1
Apply ESE81_SPRecovery with RSD Lite 4.6 (Proper drivers installed)
Phone boots successfully and I can boot into SPR successfully
Move custom ROM onto SD card named as "update.zip" (not update.zip.zip)
Reboot into recovery
Wipe data & cache 3x
Go to Install and Allow update.zip
Install update.zip (UD7 specifically -- not a corrupted download as I've downloaded several times from different locations. I've also tried several different ROMs)
Install is successful
Reboot and I get stuck at the Motorola M
I wait 10 - 20 minutes and no boot screen
Pull battery, wipe data & cache again, reboot
Same issue with Motorola M
I've tried literally everything and Cyanogen, Liquid, Bugless Beast, UD7, and numerous other custom ROMs all have this same issue. I've tried wiping my SD card completely clean.I had momentary success when I flashed back to stock 2.0.1 sbf with RSD Lite, installed SPR, then applied Liquid custom ROM but I felt daring and tried to do the same process but with UD7 and it won't load. Since then, nothing has worked.I've tried this same process on two different computers with different versions of RSD Lite (4.6 and 4.7), different sbf files, different ROMs and tried using SPR and Clockwork (With ROM Manager Premium and different versions of Clockwork). However, none of this has worked.When these processes don't end up working I have to reflash the stock 2.1 sbf with RSD Lite because restore won't work either.
From BGR after the Motorola Press Conference at CES..All Motorola Android handsets, including the CLIQ, will be updated to Android 2.1.Motorola is working on Flash 10.1 integration, is optimized for the DROID's chipset and will be pushed out the DROID at some time in the future.Motorola DROID will receive a second maintenance update in the near future..Motorola kept is short and sweet so that is all folks!
Heres hoping for sooner rather than later. Only thing that concerns me about soon is the fact that the last statement just says maintenance update in the near future. So im kinda thinking 2.1 wont be with it on the 22nd.
I'm upgrading from my Droid 1 to the Droid X tomorrow and would like to start my use of the DX with it's new 32gb card in place of my old 16gb card from my Droid 1 but need to know if there's anything required to copy from my droid 1 16gb card to my new DX 32 gb card that would be required or helpful in the DX use.I will obviously transfer music/vids/pics but are there any essential files, apps, etc. that are needed.Or is it a good idea to use my paid MyBackupPro to copy the old Droid 1 apps/data for use in the DX larger memory card or is this not copatible to perform between the 2 devices?

Tasker does not seem to function unless I use the motorola control panel and turn on bluetooth, wifi, and gps. If I shut these off via the control panel then tasker does not turn them on at the appointed times and events.Which begs the question, is tasker REALLY turning them off? or are the icons just going away in the notification bar (because they still show as on in the control panel widget)Has anyone else noticed this issue?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a non-rooted Droid 2 and the Desk/Home dock. When I first tried it out, it worked as expected-starting the home dock screen when placed in the dock. However, I now find that whenever I dock the droid, the notification bar shows that it is connected to the multimedia dock but it does not start the dock application. I used Astro to browse the /system/apps folder and found the Dock app- clicked on Open App manager and then Launch at which point I get a message saying "Activity not found com.motorola.dlauncher". I don't know if this is why nothing is happening when I dock the Droid but can anyone tell me why this suddenly stopped working and what I can do to get it working again?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is to change the motorola logo that you see when you boot your phone to a custom image. This is separate from the boot animation seen afterwards.Tools/files you will need:
1) RSD Lite
2) droid sbf
3) SBFCodec
4) Photoshop (or paint, or whatever drawing program)
5) Hex editor (frhed is free and very easy to use)
NOTE: I do not use sbf-recall because it complains about needing version 1.3, so I use SBFCodec instead.Steps:
1) Run SBFCodec and open up the sbf file. This will extract all the smg files and header files.
2) Using photoshop, create an image that is 480 pixels wide and 182 pixels tall. Each color should be assigned 8 bits (1 byte), or in paint, just make a 24 bit bmp file. Mirror the image, making the left become the right, and the right becoming the left. Save as a bmp file (photoshop method).
3) Using a hex editor, open up your image and erase the first 54 bytes of data. (and possibly the last 2 bytes of data if you used photoshop. the number of bytes remaining should be exactly 262,080) With the remaining data, reverse the bytes. (using frhed, the option is in the edit menu->Reverse bytes)
4) Using a hex editor, open up the CG42.smg file created in step 1 and erase all data except the last 64 bytes of data (these 64 bytes of data should be FF's in the file). Then paste in the remaining data from step 3 to the beginning of the file and save. Your final file should be exactly 262,144 bytes large.
5) Go back to the SBFCodec window and save (this creates the sbf) the sbf file and name it whatever you want. i.e. boot.sbf
6) Using RSD Lite, flash this sbf to your phone. It may take 5-10 minutes for the flashing to complete. (after the 10 minutes, it might say "failed", just click on the show device button once that happens and you'll have succeeded)You now have a stock phone with a custom boot image. Go ahead and root your phone and stuff. Sorry for the difficult instructions, this was the only approach I could think of to edit the boot logo.
