AIR Packaging APK With Native Libs?
Nov 1, 2011My team is currently trying to package a native .so library within an AIR APK. This native library is used by a native extension we've built, but the library is not the extension itself, therefore the standard process of creating an AIR APK with an extension does not include these libraries. We have to, somehow, instruct AIR to include the native libs in the packaging process.
The real headache is that for Android to link to these libraries, it appears that they must sit in the following directories (we have 2 .so files):
/lib
/armeabi
mynativelib.so
/armeabi-v7a
mynativelib.so
When using ADT we can include the /lib directory in the APK, but AIR sticks the /lib directory in the APK's /assets directory with the rest of the AIR files....but this does not work because Android does not appear to find the native libs.
how we can get this lib directory sitting at the root of the APK?
Android :: PNG Optimization On Packaging Process
Oct 28, 2009I've noticed that the PNGs of my application with some gradients effects looked terribly bad at the device (a Samsung Galaxy) and at the emulator, and I've found the following note at the documentation (http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/2d- graphics.html):
Image resources placed in res/drawable/ may be automatically optimized with lossless image compression by the aapt tool. For example, a true-color PNG that does not require more than 256 colors may be converted to an 8-bit PNG with a color palette. This will result in an image of equal quality but which requires less memory. So be aware that the image binaries placed in this directory can change during the build. If you plan on reading an image as a bit stream in order to convert it to a bitmap, put your images in the res/raw/ folder instead, where they will not be optimized."
I've tried the res/raw suggestion, but it didn't worked.
I've tried to use the image as JPEG as a workaround, but I couldn't use 9-patch.
I've uploaded a comparison between the original png and the "optimized" png that is shown on the emulator or devices: [url]
One workaround would be put the images at /assets/ and manually load and set the image on the ImageViews, but it requires a lot of code changes.
Android :: Packaging SQLite DB With My Application?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Res PNG Filesize Inflated Upon Packaging?
May 3, 2009I've got ~200 png files in the /res/drawable folder, mostly interface and sprite sheet stuff. They're all indexed pngs, and weigh in at a grand total of a bit over 400kb.
When I run aapt to package them into the apk, their filesize nearly doubles. Opening the apk up with 7zip and extracting the drawables confirms it: 790kb.
Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening? I thought the packaging process was meant to compress the pngs, not inflate them!
Android :: Packaging Hidden Asset Files
Jun 9, 2010I'm placing the file '.nomedia' into a folder in order to avoid Android's MediaScanner from detecting the media files in the folder. I need to copy this folder (including '.nomedia') from the APK's assets to the SD card (so other apps can make use of these media files, etc.). When I package the APK in Eclipse, it doesn't package the '.nomedia' file. Presumably it's detecting it as a hidden file. Any ideas how to fix this? Is there a secret aapt flag I can use? I'd like to avoid copying the folder and then manually creating a '.nomedia' folder, if possible.

Aug 21, 2009In Windows, we write "installer script", and user an "installer compiler" to generate an installer, let's say .inf for .msi/.cab and .nsi for NSIS.
But when it comes to Android, is there a similar method?
Android :: Packaging Multiple Items In An APK Or Widgets?
Apr 12, 2010If I create an application for Android, how do you package extra items in with it like a live wallpaper or widgets? For example, google maps does this by including a live wallpaper with the download of the latest version.
On a related note, with google maps, it's available for, I believe, 1.6 and up, but it seems that it is all the same download. So how do you ensure that, even though there may be a 2.x only feature included, it still shows up for lower OS phones? Or is the marketplace maybe actually holding onto two separate APKs for each OS?
Android :: Eclipse Error Packaging With Unknown Location
May 19, 2010I am getting an error in my Problems tab for my Android Project in Eclipse. The error is "Android Packaging Problem" with an Unknown location. Unknown Error NullPointerException
I cannot determine what this problem is. My project was working a few hours ago. The only change I made was to add a public interface ITrackDao to my project and implement it. There are no errors associated with this. I am not even sure where to begin to look. I cannot launch the application.

Sep 24, 2010So I painfully watched my Cappy's battery door crushed under my friend's car as one of their "harmless" joke.

I found dummy/display Captivates though, so I was just wondering if anyone knows if the dummy battery door can replace the REAL door by any chance?

Nov 24, 2010I got AT&T Samsung Captivate i897 (2.1 Eclair). I unlocked and rooted my phone. I was using simple free phone earlier which doesn't require data plan but after two weeks I bought samsung captivate, AT&T added $25 data plan. I got my phone from AT&T store where my friend works so he took my data plan out of the plan for now but he said they will find out and add into your plan again. Also, He said that they recognize by your IMEI number. My question is: Is there anyway I can change my IMEI number? I was thinking to use my simple free Nokia phone's IMEI number and use it for Samsung Captivate so AT&T thinks that I am using Nokia phone.

Aug 18, 2010After running three updates this morning. I started getting a weird light effect when I unlock my phone. It happens at the top of the screen just to the right below the battery.

Aug 27, 2010I have an unlocked captivate. I have a German T-D1 pay-as-you-go sim that I've used many times in unlocked GPS phones. Now I have an AT&T captivate and wonder whether GPS or other apps will work. Does GPS require a data plan to work? If so I'll have to figure out whetted I can add this to my T-D1 plan. This will also answer my question about whether using the Captivate for navigation in the US needs a data plan to work.

Aug 4, 2010Noticed since I work in a rather quiet environment. During office hours I need to keep it on vibrate mode. When the phone vibrates during a call, it causes a severe rattling noise when the phone is in my hands or if the bottom is not resting against a hard object. Removing the battery compartment cover and repeat, and the rattle is non existent. With the battery cover on, the rattle can be diminished by pressing firmly on the top section of the cover.

Samsung Captivate :: Captivate/Android Media Scanner/Playlists ?
Sep 8, 2010I am having an issue with my M3U playlists.
I use the default Samsung media player, Isyncr and Itunes. Although I have also used the Doubletwist Player (not the desktop software) and had the same issue, I just prefer the Samsung default player mainly because of the lock screen app.
Here is the issue.
First, I sync my playlists with Itunes using Isyncr, all of the songs come over great, art and tags, everything is perfect. It also creates M3U playlists on my phone. I double checked that everything is there.
Then when I unmount, media scanner scans my SD card (which takes way longer than it should) and it deletes all of my playlists. Now a little research on XDA forums tells me that this is because anytime the media scanner scans a playlist and can't find all of the songs from that playlist, it assumes it is an old playlist and deletes it. The problem is that when I look through the M3U files, every song referenced in the list is on the card...they are all there, yet it keeps deleting them.
Does anyone know of a solution to make it stop deleting my playlists?
