I'm testing JTwitter on an android app.
Code:
OAuthSignpostClient oauthClient = new OAuthSignpostClient(
consumerKey,
consumerSecret, "oob");
[code]...
I've included the libraries and all. When I run the app in the emulator, it gives the error 'Unforunately AppName has stopped'.

Android I am using jTwitter
CODE:.......
line 2 throws winterwell.jtwitter.TwitterException$E403: Forbidden http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json (my_user_name)
what does that mean ?
I am writing a application which will write to a file. Now I want to show the contents of the file but How do I delay the show function so that there is enough time for the writing to be done before continuing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've moved over from a Samsung Glyde (aka biggest pos ever) and am so far loving my droid. I'd like to thank everyone that contributed to the app lists/tips/tricks threads. All of it has made moving over to Android so much easier. Really, those kinds of things help us nubs
So far I've only had one real concern with the Droid, and I was wondering if this was unique to my phone, the Droid itself or if its an Android thing.
I downloaded Advance Task Killer as so many have recommended and have noticed that certain apps will simply start themselves running in the background it seems for no other reason than the phone sees the spare memory and fills it up in anticipation that I might run one of them. As you can imagine this is quite frustrating and annoying. Not only does it eat up valuable RAM space but also is eating battery (probably) in the process.
In particular, I notice the Corporate Calender, Voice Dialer, and Visual VM all tend to start themselves up on their own. What's interesting to me about this is I don't even use these applications. In fact, my corporate calendar is not setup, nor have I even opened it once. My phone could be sitting on my desk in sleep mode for an hour and then I'll wake it up and open Task killer to find 10 apps open that I never used.
How can i start an application just knowing the package name, not the classname? Ok, there is Intent.setComponent solution would be what i need ... if it was compatible with 1.5 :(
I guess i have to play with getPackageManager() but how can i use it?
I am running Eclipse on XP. The Emulator was running correctly but all of sudden today it hang up. I closed Eclipse, rebooted the XP, now when I invoke eclipse, it displays a ddms alert box with the message:
"Failed to initialize monitor thread: Unable to establish loopback connection"
and eclipe prints in its console: [2009-03-17 18:41:46 - DeviceMonitor]Connection attempts: 61
I can start the emulator manually but it's not linked to eclipse and eclipse still gives the same errors.
Why did it stop running and how do I fix it?
I would like to know if there is a way to lock (prevent) an application from starting.And i also would like to know if there is a way to prevent a service(application) from starting at boot of the device.i would like to know because i would like to create an anti-malware app.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen developing on BlackBerry or iOS, you can deploy your application just by dropping the compiled code into a special directory, and when the simulator boots up it will check that directory and install any apps that it finds there. Is this possible for Android? The reason this feature is desirable is because my build system deploys builds nightly. I want the emulator ready to go when my QA team gets in the next morning. To do that, I have to write a script that boots up the emulator, waits for it to start up, then calls adb install and finally shuts down the emulator. It would be great if I could just drop the .apk in a directory and have it ready to go the next time QA boots up the emulator.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI can browse the internet fine, i can use any app that uses the internet like facebook, youtube, etc. I can even browse the android market fine. Its just stuck at "starting download". I really dont want to reset my phone.
I've tryed:
- restarting
- Turning off and on data connections ( both 3g and wifi )
- Clearing any google cache
- google talk
- deleting apps ( if its a space issue )
- canceling and restarting downloads
- have it attempt to download for 24+ hours
None of these worked. it seems reseting the phone is the last option. I have the Sony Xperia X10. Has anyone with that phone resolved the issue? Is it even the phone that's causing the issue? maybe the market itself is buggy.
I have a service running (Socket), this is how i start the service.

But this doesn't seem to stop my service? Am i missing something? I need to destroy my service as soon as the home button is clicked.
I have four activity in a Tab and after the user clicked on the list I would like to start another one activity, but I can't use startActivity(Intent), because then I lost the TabHost view, and I get an activity witch is reserving the full screen:( So the user won't be able to click on the other tabs. What should I use? BroadCastReciver or What? If anyone have any good idea please help on me.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have the code to get the list of packages installed in phone. I have represented the list in the form of Array List, below is the code snippet. But upon clicking in the package name I want to start that application, but how do I get the respective class name and package name to run? Is there any other method which I can try to start an application? arrayList<String> PackageNames = null; List<PackageInfo> lis = pm.getInstalled Packages(GET_MINIMAL); Pkgs = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.package_list); for (Package Info pi : lis)packages.put(pi.packageName, pi); PackageNames = new ArrayList<String> packages.keySet()); Collections.sort(PackageNames); PackageNames.add(0, "All"); pgs.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple _list_ item_1, PackageNames)); Pkgs.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View v, int pos,long rowId) { Intent i = new Intent(); i.setComponent(new ComponentName(class name,packagename)); startActivity(i); I have tried intent to start the activity, but don't know the class name and package name to pass in the ComponentName() to start activity.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm starting an activity when a button is pressed, and normally (in other apps) haven't had an issue. But when I press the button in this app, I get an "unable to marshal value" error.Exact(ish) error from LogCat:
03-22 02:49:02.883:
WARN/System.err(252):
java.lang.RuntimeException: Parcel:
unable to marshal value
{CLASSNAME}@44dcf1b8
I feel that this might be related to the extra that I'm passing to the intent. I'm passing an ArrayList as a serializable to this new intent. My concern is that the data structure that the ArrayList contains isn't being serialized (as it's a personal data structure).Is the array list content data structure causing this? Something else that I'm missing?
I try to figure out how long my battery willl last after charge.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on an app and I want to integrate the Last.fm app into it. Basically, when someone is looking at an artist in my app, I would like to have a button that they can tap to open up Last.fm application with the artist's information.
This intent works, but it loads a menu asking which app I would like to use (Browser or Last.fm):
CODE:..........
However, I just want to start the Last.fm app and skip the dialog asking which app to use, I thought maybe using the setPackage() method would work like this: i.setPackage("fm.last.android");
But it causes the app to crash:
CODE:............
Is it possible to just start the Last.fm app?
Here's a copy of Last.fm's AndroidManifest.xml for reference.
I followed the directions verbatim in this Android tutorial, copying/pasting the code from the site to my app. http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html
However, when I try to run in the Android emulator, I get the error: "The application Hello Tab Widget has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I tried debugging by introducing a breakpoint in the first line of the onCreate method, but the error occurs before the breakpoint is even hit. Any idea of what is going wrong, or any other way I can debug this issue? I am using Eclipse.
I have 4 Tabs in a TabHost...let them be A,B,C,D.... now each one is just an index page and clicking on any of them shows a different activity...
The problem is that i need to start another activity wen user selects something from the content displayed in the tab... The other activity should also be displayed in the parent tab itself... is it by any chance possible or i'll have to try some other way around?
I'm trying to start a floating activity from onStart to retrieve some info from the user right when the initial activity begins.
I have the following:
CODE:............
And callProfileDialog() is just:
CODE:..........
ProfileDialog.class returns a String from an input box. If the result returned is RESULT_CANCELED then I restart the activity.
The problem I'm having is that when the program starts, the screen is just black. If I hit the Back button a RESULT_CANCELED is returned then the initial activity shows as well as the floating activity (since it recalled itself when it got a RESULT_CANCELED). Why can't I get the activities show by calling ProfileDialog.class from onStart()? I got the same result when I called it at the end of onCreate() which is way I switch over to use onStart().
I have also tried the following:
CODE:.........
But this doesn't work either. It all works fine once I hit the back button but without doing that, it's all black.
I would like to know the reason behind this behaviour.I have a broadcast reciever and in onrecieve i am trying to start an activity,however if i am not giving the flags it is giving an exception .On declaring the flags it is working perfectly fine,why?
I was under the impression that onRecieve runs in the main UI thread and we can launch an activity in onRecieve.Error given by the emulator is self explanatory but still why do i need to create an activity in a new task(only in onRecieve)?

If I create a no-gui application that extends and android.app.Service class, how do I get it to register itself so that the application starts when the phone boots up?
I need some way to have it always launch when the phone is turned on, how can I do this?
I know how to get a service to start & communicate with a real application, but I can't get it to start when the phone boots.
I am at a stage where I can understand and write a decent Android application. At this stage, I am still not comfortable with SurfaceHolder, Canvas, View invalidate() etc. I don't have a CS background so I must've missed these from a CS Graphics course or something.
Starting directly with Android seemed like a bad idea because there are not many examples out there. And sometimes I am getting things done, but I don't understand what the heck is going on. For instance, there are a few dangling observations. Calling invalidate() from within a view calls its onDraw method but from outside it doesn't do anything and I don't know why this is happening. I know SurfaceHolder can be a powerful thing but I don't know how to use it.
For an absolute beginner to be able to handle this stuff, what are the resources one should follow? Is it animation basics or screen rendering or something else altogether? I mean, it cannot be the case that Android guys invented these concepts right? They must be similar to something out there which has some tutorials already. My end goal is to put myself in a position where I can write some simple custom views that can animate themselves and use some basic physics to react to touch events.
I have a problem and cant realize a reason. I have ClassNotFoundException when starting Intent i = new Intent(EventInfo.this, AndricoMap.class); i.putExtra("address", address); startActivity(i);

In my manifest file, I have given the application name as MyApp and the name of the starting activity as Main Menu.code...
When I see the app icon in the default menu screen of android, the name shown is Main Menu. Why is MyApp not the name shown for the app?
Understanding how to declare activities in the manifest file, how to set the appropriate flags when starting them through intents, is quite challenging in all but the default cases. The combination of all these settings and flags is daunting. I've been developing for Android for over a year now, have read the application fundamentals and the reference guide for 'Intent' quite a few times and still I don't have a good grasp of which manifest settings or intent-flags should be used for starting activities in many situations (workflows). Is there some source/document that can explain certain work-flows (ways of navigation through activities and tasks), that shows examples of how to configure and start activities?

When I look at the list, I see that I rarely use some of these apps. Is this a setting that is defined within the application itself?

It appears ThorstenW is correct. I would upvote your answer if I had enough rep. You can see from the logcat that com.android.camera could not be found and throws a fatal exception. Logcat below.
