**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Oct 20 02:59:58 2013 Oct 20 03:01:26 jug6ernaut, got dc... what was my last question :) Oct 20 03:01:42 lol Oct 20 03:16:40 jug6ernaut, i guess ill watch some tuts and come back later.. thanks for the help :) Oct 20 03:31:35 ok i think the secret is i didnt put the activities in my androidmanifest.xml Oct 20 03:31:42 how about an androidwomanifest.xml Oct 20 03:31:54 sigh @ sexist society Oct 20 03:47:31 hi, im trying to figure out when my application actually terminates. it only has one activity so i think calling finished() kills the process. i think this happens when i press the back button on my device, but the behavior seems different if i click on the 'windows'? button to see all of my applications and manually 'push' my application off a screen. this is on a nexus4 Oct 20 03:47:57 whoa... you have a windows button on an N4??? Oct 20 03:48:05 idunno what its called Oct 20 03:48:16 the thing to the right of home Oct 20 03:49:10 i think the back button finishes the foreground activity ... but i dont know what pushing an app off the multitask screen (or whatever its called) actually does. can anyone clarify? Oct 20 03:49:28 im running vanilla 4.2.2 that came on the device if it makes a difference Oct 20 03:56:39 ah i guess its called the recents button Oct 20 03:56:41 how obtuse Oct 20 04:00:03 in general, that kills the app AFAIK Oct 20 04:00:24 as opposed to killing the foreground activity Oct 20 04:01:36 it doesn't kill foreground services, I think Oct 20 04:04:01 I see... anyone remember the days when you could actually quit applications and everything made sense? Oct 20 04:13:23 anyway, yeah, swiping off kills the app, unless it has a foreground service Oct 20 04:14:30 ty Oct 20 04:49:05 pressing recents button doesn't kill your app, onPause gets called and you can override onResume if something doesn't restore when you come back to it Oct 20 05:04:07 no, swiping off Oct 20 05:04:09 not pressing recents Oct 20 05:04:18 I wasn't talking to you Oct 20 05:05:13 you're about an hour too late if you aren't then Oct 20 05:05:21 or something like that Oct 20 05:05:22 Leeds said "in general, that kills the app AFAIK" Oct 20 05:05:31 yeah, he said that about swiping off Oct 20 05:05:35 not just pressing the button Oct 20 05:06:05 oh Oct 20 05:07:29 well I'll scroll back further in the past and randomly find something wrong with someone said and be right then ! Oct 20 05:08:52 well I'll scroll back further in the past and randomly find something wrong with *something* someone said and be right then ! Oct 20 05:09:11 heh Oct 20 05:09:22 Well you're completely and utterly wrong Oct 20 05:15:15 hey guys.. how do i get the screen width or height from the XML file? Oct 20 05:15:33 its a drawable xml, if that matters Oct 20 05:16:37 this? dunno http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4649438/how-to-get-the-dimensions-of-a-drawable-in-an-imageview/8917221#8917221 Oct 20 05:18:11 XXCoder1, hmm not really.. this gets the dimensions of an image (drawable) inside the code i think Oct 20 05:18:27 this is not XML Oct 20 05:18:28 sorry couldnt be much help Oct 20 05:20:20 interesting Oct 20 05:20:29 fund a android dev trick and tips blog Oct 20 05:20:34 it has only 3 entries Oct 20 05:20:50 aug 2012 to sept 2012 Oct 20 05:21:03 I guess guy gave up or got job Oct 20 05:21:10 *found Oct 20 05:31:47 Blogging's pretty boring if you start because of potential blog-super-stardom and realize nobody gives a crap. Oct 20 05:32:03 I guess so Oct 20 05:35:08 XXCoder1: not mine, was it? :) Oct 20 05:35:20 3 entries only probably not Oct 20 05:35:40 it starts off on how to find help resoueces, then 2 entries on auto draw using xml Oct 20 05:35:48 ends there Oct 20 05:36:09 ah, no Oct 20 05:37:33 mine goes back to 2010/11 :) Oct 20 05:49:49 hey, if android 4.3 is out then why doesn't my samsung galaxy nexus (which is supposed to run pure android) not have it yet? Oct 20 05:50:27 seand, where'd you buy iy? Oct 20 05:50:32 *it Oct 20 05:50:35 verizon store Oct 20 05:50:39 county? Oct 20 05:50:41 USA Oct 20 05:51:20 ah, i think the verizon version has to go through them Oct 20 05:51:33 like the hong king version has to go through samsung Oct 20 05:51:44 damn Oct 20 05:51:51 *kong Oct 20 05:52:28 and i'm guessing the only options are either to wait or flash it myself? Oct 20 05:53:06 ...or get a new phone? Oct 20 05:53:06 i had a HK one, but i flashed it to the google build, to get updates and get rid of the chinese keyboard Oct 20 05:53:13 yeah Oct 20 05:53:19 seand i doubt the GN will see 4.3 Oct 20 05:53:23 flashing was easy enough though Oct 20 05:53:27 https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images Oct 20 05:53:30 next time, get a gsm nexus :) Oct 20 05:53:42 gsm?

Oct 20 05:56:23 i know literally nothing about this stuff Oct 20 05:56:45 not with a google image Oct 20 05:57:59 do you guys know of a guide online so i don't have to bug you with 1000 questions? Oct 20 06:09:15 seand: for some context, you could look at http://goo.gl/XqbKjB Oct 20 06:09:36 thx Oct 20 06:13:23 alex_PP looks pretty cool http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/18/4853372/spec-sheet-sony-alpha-7-7r-compared-canon-6d-nikon-d610 Oct 20 06:13:31 the sony Oct 20 06:15:53 I wish sprint is gsm Oct 20 06:15:58 but friggin no Oct 20 06:16:28 its currently only one I can afford due to special deal Oct 20 06:16:35 so gsm is unlocked, pure android no manufacturer/retailer garbage? Oct 20 06:17:13 only benefit I care about is gsm makes it much easier to change devices Oct 20 06:17:20 say I have one account Oct 20 06:17:30 I can move sim from phone to my tablet Oct 20 06:17:34 use it for while Oct 20 06:17:36 then move back Oct 20 06:18:18 ah, interesting Oct 20 06:18:26 damn i need to learn about this stuff Oct 20 06:19:33 seand i remember with that phone, VZ putting an app on it Oct 20 06:19:42 once they touch the image, it has to come from them Oct 20 06:20:06 g00s: did you see that link?

Oct 20 06:21:41 intel actually tried it with cpu unlock with pay Oct 20 06:21:44 that didnt last long Oct 20 06:21:50 Leeds O.O Oct 20 06:21:51 2 core to 4 Oct 20 06:21:55 XXCoder1: IBM were doing that decades ago Oct 20 06:22:19 seand i remember when that phone came out, i couldn't even get a straight answer from googlers who would update it Oct 20 06:22:21 with what? Oct 20 06:22:24 XXCoder1 since you sort of need brakes in your car that's a horrible analogy Oct 20 06:22:31 sean well true lol Oct 20 06:22:37 more like umm music player Oct 20 06:23:00 what kind of setups do you guys have? as far as phones and service?

Oct 20 06:24:05 android x86 on laptop Oct 20 06:24:07 jk heh Oct 20 06:24:09 seand actually, for dev i'm wondering if its best to have a sgs3 or sgs4 Oct 20 06:24:17 by far th emost popular phones Oct 20 06:24:22 good point Oct 20 06:24:28 gs 4 is pure android too, isn't it? Oct 20 06:24:32 seand: can you explain your question? Oct 20 06:24:33 if it works on nexus, and doesn't on sgs3 - it doesn't work Oct 20 06:24:49 I still dont know if android x86 on laptop would work like phone, connect it to dev pc and it shows up as debug device Oct 20 06:24:57 like this fucking weirdass optionsMenu bug i was just reading about Oct 20 06:24:59 no regular usb to test with Oct 20 06:25:08 hey guys.. what do i have to include for this: PixelFormat cannot be resolved to a type Oct 20 06:25:25 XXCoder1: the emulator sucks if that is what you're asking Oct 20 06:25:28 thepoosh: i want to stay on the latest android version so i can release utilize the latest API without having to wait for an update to come from my particular retailer for my phone Oct 20 06:25:29 if its legit object youre missing some import Oct 20 06:25:37 poosh nope actual android laptop Oct 20 06:25:42 thepoosh: so i was wondering what phone is best for that Oct 20 06:25:43 hmmm Oct 20 06:25:56 seand: look at the dashboards Oct 20 06:26:06 heh Oct 20 06:26:19 I think Samsung galaxy S3 is the most common device out there Oct 20 06:26:19 the only app i've released has like 13 users Oct 20 06:26:29 poosh besides from strange bugs (they realllly need more developers) it works pretty damn well Oct 20 06:26:38 XXCoder1: I would probably try and use an actual device Oct 20 06:26:39 but it could benefit from an update for 4.3, and i don't have 4.3 right now Oct 20 06:26:54 poosh yeah I use my epic for test stuff Oct 20 06:27:02 I just wonder if my android laptop would work too Oct 20 06:27:08 probably Oct 20 06:27:16 Intel are working on an Android device Oct 20 06:27:25 so there are builds that are compatible Oct 20 06:27:50 seand: you just need to compile for a target API of 18 Oct 20 06:27:58 damn here I am chjatting when I need to sleep Oct 20 06:28:00 night Oct 20 06:28:05 thepoosh: doesn't matter if i can't test it Oct 20 06:28:07 poosh interesting news thanks Oct 20 06:28:18 pleasure Oct 20 06:28:24 I have a friend who works in Intel Oct 20 06:28:30 awesome Oct 20 06:28:36 they already have an Alpha version Oct 20 06:28:36 going now later lol Oct 20 06:28:46 thepoosh can you ask them to update their flipping x86 images? the api 17 still has the logcat bug Oct 20 06:28:55 soon Oct 20 06:29:05 I guess once it goes out into the market Oct 20 06:29:15 I think they're trying to keep it on the down low Oct 20 06:29:32 g00s: how would you store a UUID in an SQLite DB? Oct 20 06:29:36 for quick searches Oct 20 06:30:02 g00s, yeah, but once you get locked into a serious lens collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. Oct 20 06:30:44 The only thing that really worried me was the 14mm. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of a wide angle binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon. Oct 20 06:30:53 hm. i guess just a string field with index. its 128 bits, so if you split it by bytes you would need 2 int fields Oct 20 06:31:07 hmmm Oct 20 06:31:09 ok Oct 20 06:31:24 thepoosh maybe try #sqlite if there is a trick Oct 20 06:31:30 ok Oct 20 06:31:39 alex_PP i think 24mm is all i would need :) Oct 20 06:36:17 alex_PP i hope i live long enough to see non-glass "optics" for camera (fluid filled, etc" Oct 20 06:36:43 i thought i saw an article last week about an algo that corrected even from really shitty lenses Oct 20 06:37:27 i think it was discussed at siggraph Oct 20 06:38:06 alex_PP http://petapixel.com/2013/09/29/newly-developed-software-helps-get-high-quality-photos-crappy-lenses/ Oct 20 06:39:36 pretty sure start g+ multiplayer invite gui isnt supposed to crash my app Oct 20 06:39:40 lately, i've decided to keep ggod compositions even if the IQ is crap; never know when a good algo will come along :) Oct 20 06:39:51 hello everybody Oct 20 06:40:37 http://io9.com/the-very-first-image-of-a-hydrogen-bond-1426759827 Oct 20 06:40:48 i have been using IntentService and Asynctask in different situation but i am not very clear that which of these things should be used in what situations ? Oct 20 06:41:27 an anybody give a clear approach to when to use IntentService, Asynctask and Handlers ? Oct 20 06:41:59 IntentService is good for async one-shot things that need to happen Oct 20 06:42:14 like update db, forward to web service Oct 20 06:42:28 AyncTask - i never use :D Oct 20 06:42:41 do i need to add the Activity i startActivityForResult to AndroidManifest.xml? Oct 20 06:42:53 Handlers are for inter-thread comms; and use can use HandlerThread (like IntentService does) Oct 20 06:43:22 hmm Oct 20 06:44:17 JimmyCarter, you have to add each and every activity in androidmanifest.xml Oct 20 06:44:34 doesn't matter how you call that activity Oct 20 06:51:34 g00s, i think we an use asynctask when you wan't some stuffs to run only after your processing is done. For eg: updating your UI (like updating listview) after you have the data Oct 20 06:52:27 sure, sometimes its easy Oct 20 06:53:20 g00s, so its a kind of judgement call. depends on the situation :) Oct 20 06:54:53 hmm Oct 20 06:55:10 Intent intent = google.getGamesClient().getInvitationInboxIntent(); activity.startActivityForResult(intent, RC_INVITATION_INBOX); Oct 20 06:56:08 i tried putting what Activity i think that corresponds to in my AndroidManifest.xml but it made no diff. (it still starts the right activity, but exits/crashes my game) Oct 20 07:14:30 hey guys i just imported this code and the "dimen" is underlined saying cannot be resolver: menu.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width); where do i find this thing -.- Oct 20 07:14:43 resolved* Oct 20 07:22:45 actually i know that this is defined in a XML file of the library... Oct 20 07:52:20 hi all Oct 20 07:52:21 I have three relative layouts in a linear layout. i gave the second relative layout a weight of 1. But this is not changing anything Oct 20 08:04:56 shadej1, do you understand what are weights for? Oct 20 08:05:17 superlinux-hp: yeah Oct 20 08:05:46 ah ok.. but weight = 1 means the whole layouts Oct 20 08:06:05 i mean cover the whole. Oct 20 08:06:21 android cheats and isnt fair Oct 20 08:06:33 how can you give me no error message Oct 20 08:07:48 JimmyCarter: haven't you worked out by now that Android hates you personally? Oct 20 08:08:19 shadej1, put weightSum =1 in the linearlayout and then put a fraction of the weightSum in each realtive layout Oct 20 08:09:10 so your linear layout is the whole, and the relative layouts are parts Oct 20 08:09:36 superlinux-hp: I did following a tutorial which does not specify weightsum, but let me try it Oct 20 08:09:50 shadej1, you have to! Oct 20 08:10:24 else you are not saying weight with respect to which. Oct 20 08:10:53 i dont care about layouts, vies, activities, or intents, i just want this to work. integrating play services multiplayer is supposed to be easy. Oct 20 08:11:03 more like easy as dying in a cluster bombing Oct 20 08:11:19 superlinux-hp: no change still Oct 20 08:12:08 shadej1, weightSum=1 in linear, and weight=0.5 in one of the relative, have you done that? Oct 20 08:12:13 superlinux-hp: I have told you the linear layout is with scrolview Oct 20 08:12:25 may if there is a problem with it Oct 20 08:13:02 I have did this weightsum=1 in linear and weight=1 in one of the relative Oct 20 08:13:47 what i know is that you select one and only one layout and fill it. maybe just the table layout is the one i prefer to use to organize things. Oct 20 08:15:49 and the scroll view must be both fill parent to scroll. Oct 20 08:16:34 shadej1, no! weight has to be less than 1 . i.e 0.8 or 0.3 .. in this sense Oct 20 08:17:36 shadej1, for example as you say there are 3, then each should be 0.3+0.3+0.4=1 Oct 20 08:17:50 yeah i understand Oct 20 08:17:58 now they are 1+0+0=1 Oct 20 08:18:00 the sweet thing is it launches a pretty nice looking invite friends gui. where ican choose my friends, or automatch, and then click start game Oct 20 08:18:20 the PROBLEM is even the act of launching the pretty decent invite friends gui has exited my app Oct 20 08:18:25 shadej1, this means the other 2 should not appear, i think Oct 20 08:18:35 0 helpful anything in logcat Oct 20 08:18:58 superlinux-hp: nope it means the other two will appear only wraping their content Oct 20 08:19:02 basically android denies me multiple guis Oct 20 08:19:18 true Oct 20 08:19:23 anyways.. Oct 20 08:26:55 good morning guys ! Oct 20 08:26:58 how to fix position of a footer with in a scrolview? Oct 20 08:27:56 I need to check if an alarm is already set using a given requestCode of a pending intent Oct 20 08:28:36 Hi, can someone help me? I'm using maps api and it doesn't work, tho the api key, package name and certificate fingerprint match Oct 20 08:28:43 does it take time to update? Oct 20 08:28:48 is there a quick way to get a string from http? Oct 20 08:29:15 like url generates a string Oct 20 08:29:31 lemonxah, try Volley Oct 20 08:29:47 lemonxah sure Oct 20 08:29:57 shvelo not really. Oct 20 08:30:09 tonyMontana9099, hmm Oct 20 08:30:18 shvelo almost instantaneos i guess (worked with it around a year ago, or more) donno now Oct 20 08:30:28 I've requested a new key, maybe it helps Oct 20 08:30:44 yes... the old key remains active for a day, the new one is instantly active tho i guess Oct 20 08:30:48 is ther a way to do it without adding a 3rd party lib? Oct 20 08:30:52 yes Oct 20 08:30:54 tonyMontana9099: I think you need to keep track of your alarms yourself Oct 20 08:31:14 lemonxah yes, just retrieve it as json using built in json libraries Oct 20 08:31:26 Leeds i have done. Oct 20 08:31:33 tonyMontana9099, i have no idea what you mean Oct 20 08:31:37 btw, fuck Android Studio Oct 20 08:31:42 i dont control what the url returns Oct 20 08:31:58 Leeds but in some point I will need to check if I have already set an alarm with that request code or no Oct 20 08:32:14 shvelo agree. but this will piss JakeWharton lol Oct 20 08:32:18 yes, so you check against your own list Oct 20 08:32:26 how ? Oct 20 08:32:37 still doesn't work :/ fuck Oct 20 08:32:38 lemonxah what is it that you want ? can you describe in detail ? Oct 20 08:32:45 sure Oct 20 08:32:50 do a project clean Oct 20 08:33:02 http://login.minecraft.net/?user=??&password=??&version=13 Oct 20 08:33:11 tonyMontana9099, that reders a string Oct 20 08:33:15 I don't care that people don't like Android Studio. Oct 20 08:33:22 bad login or bad request or login details Oct 20 08:33:31 i want to grab that string Oct 20 08:33:32 okay Oct 20 08:33:42 JakeWharton hehehe (Y) Oct 20 08:33:56 i REALLY like Android Studio .. IntelliJ ftw Oct 20 08:34:35 If Eclipse were at all competent as an IDE this might he with debating. Oct 20 08:34:41 be worth Oct 20 08:35:01 lemonxah there are couple of ways you can do this Oct 20 08:35:12 you can take the html response and parse it in your code Oct 20 08:35:37 but the response isn't just a string its an inputstream Oct 20 08:35:46 yes it is Oct 20 08:35:47 so i should read that char for char and build up the sting? Oct 20 08:36:08 hmm then i am doing something wrong then cause the response only has like .getEntity Oct 20 08:36:24 yes you should.. Oct 20 08:36:30 write a method that does that.. 2 lines max Oct 20 08:36:33 superlinux-hp: solved! Oct 20 08:36:45 shadej1, great! Oct 20 08:37:03 Leeds how can I do a head to head check mate ? by storing everything in a place and checking from there ? Or i can do it on the fly ? Oct 20 08:37:06 whould a response.toString() return the string? i hope so Oct 20 08:37:21 try it Oct 20 08:37:23 tonyMontana9099: yup, store your own list of alarms Oct 20 08:37:30 superlinux-hp: the problem with putting the linear layout with in the scrolview Oct 20 08:37:41 Leeds damn,, that was the think i was trying to avoid Oct 20 08:37:55 shadej1, in eclipse it would have told me! Oct 20 08:38:22 scroll view always must take one and only one child Oct 20 08:39:07 Leeds so technically there is nothing like pi.check("code") //returns true or false Oct 20 08:39:16 superlinux-hp: yeah, I only put one child (linearlayout) but the linearlayout have got 3 children Oct 20 08:39:18 shadej1, make this a habit (ScrollView(Layout)) and then you will never care about sizes anymore Oct 20 08:39:22 tonyMontana9099: AFAIK, no, there isn't Oct 20 08:39:50 damn Oct 20 08:39:54 thanks Leeds Oct 20 09:37:31 I've gone a custom listview. When I click on an item I use the view and change the background. That works, but it also changes the background of items further down the list even though I'm doing it by Position? Oct 20 09:42:42 ListView reuses views Oct 20 09:51:56 ahh looks like problem was i was killing my own process. my pad Oct 20 09:51:58 my bad* Oct 20 09:52:52 <[twisti]> can i only use admob if my app is in the play store ? Oct 20 09:53:29 <[twisti]> and does that mean i have to release it without apps first, and then once it makes it to the play store hurry to add ads before too many people download the ad-free version ? Oct 20 09:55:10 unless something has changed, I'm pretty sure you don't need to publish your app in the play store to use admob Oct 20 09:55:19 what leads you to believe that? Oct 20 09:56:24 <[twisti]> im trying to make an admob entry for my app, and i have to specify "the name of your app as you'd like it to appear in the app store" Oct 20 09:56:44 <[twisti]> that sounded like that wasnt optional Oct 20 09:59:22 so put the name of your app? Oct 20 09:59:30 er, does it say "app store"? Oct 20 09:59:49 <[twisti]> yes, the stuff in the "" is copy and pasted Oct 20 10:00:21 are you 100% sure you're registering it as an Android app? Oct 20 10:00:48 "app store" is not a term usually used for Android... Oct 20 10:01:06 <[twisti]> yes Oct 20 10:03:25 <[twisti]> i put the name in and it worked fine, even though its not in the play store Oct 20 10:03:36 <[twisti]> and wasnt the play store called app store a few years ago ? Oct 20 10:04:04 hm seems onStop() not actually called. iwas killing my process in onPause() and that worked find till i needed to call other activities Oct 20 10:05:26 some say i can look at pair of onWindowFocusChanged() and onPause() Oct 20 10:08:52 [twisti]: no, it was called the Android Market before Play Store... Amazon's store is called "appstore", Apple's is "iTunes App Store" Oct 20 10:09:21 <[twisti]> ah, looks like i threw some things together then Oct 20 10:09:45 <[twisti]> but the quote is from admob, and my app shows as android, with the android icon, so i guess they mixed it up too Oct 20 10:10:24 yeah, I'm surprised, but I believe you :) haven't added a new app in admob for quite a while Oct 20 10:10:48 slacker Oct 20 10:11:10 Is it possible/easy to parse data from Google Finance? Oct 20 10:11:13 yes, I do use slackware Oct 20 10:11:41 everyone sems to use yahoo finance for some reason Oct 20 10:11:55 like coursera comp investing or comp finance and econometircs and others Oct 20 10:14:31 JimmyCarter, yahoo finance doesnt provide data for Spain Oct 20 10:14:32 :( Oct 20 10:21:32 ah well goog should be fine Oct 20 10:34:25 13646688 Oct 20 03:33 Spaceball.apk Oct 20 10:34:31 the witching apk Oct 20 10:35:17 yup seems onStop() is complete hoax Oct 20 10:35:35 is it possible to get the current system UI visibility state (not via the change listener)? Oct 20 10:35:49 so is activity android:noHistory = true Oct 20 10:50:19 Hi, I’m trying to debug a NDK software (using that guide: http://www.kandroid.org/online-pdk/guide/debugging_gdb.html), and I get a “Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)” error even with a correctly running test apk. Oct 20 10:51:33 When I run “info registers” in the client gdb, I always get the same values, which doesn’t look good. Oct 20 10:52:51 My testcase is a very simple SDL2 and OpenGLES 2.0 C app which loops without issue, but the stack is reported as corrupt. Oct 20 10:53:02 How could I debug that issue? Oct 20 10:54:31 My real goal is to see why I don’t get any output when I add the libpython2.7 in the mix, but if it already doesn’t work with a normal C testcase I won’t be able to go further. Oct 20 10:59:04 i did the sensible thing and set a waiting_activity_result boolean before i startActivityForResult() which i unset in onActivityResult, then in onPause() i check the bool and only android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid()); when im not starting sub activity. genius Oct 20 11:00:39 How do I use a callback in a SyncAdapter? I send a request to my REST API and want the data to be inserted using my ContentProvider once the query is complete but I don't think I can instantiate a Handler.Callback object from inside SyncAdapter. Oct 20 11:04:18 linkmauvel i do opengles 2.0 c++ with ndk and just debug with stacktrace in logcat Oct 20 11:05:29 Hi ;) Oct 20 11:06:06 Q: How to show a virtual keyboard when the hardware one is present ? Oct 20 11:07:59 JimmyCarter, my issue is that I don’t have a real stack trace, when I put python in the mix the app seems to hang, without outputting anything in logcat *, and gdb isn’t helping. Oct 20 11:08:40 sometimes have to close logcat window and reopen it Oct 20 11:08:43 it gets stuck Oct 20 11:10:04 I still get the messages when I kill it from an adb shell, and I can reproduce the issue each time, even with a new logcat. Oct 20 11:10:15 <[twisti]> admob says "// Put in your secret key here", is that the same thing as my "ad unit id", that starts like Ad unit ID: ca-app-pub-76... ? Oct 20 11:10:29 yeah twisti Oct 20 11:11:08 <[twisti]> does it only update so often ? it says 0 impressions, but i had it display a few apps for me a while ago Oct 20 11:11:13 dunno about python, i dont trust snakes Oct 20 11:11:18 <[twisti]> or is that just clicks ? Oct 20 11:11:24 ^^ Oct 20 11:11:30 <[twisti]> i didnt want to risk getting banned by clicking my own ads ;) Oct 20 11:11:31 yeah dosnt update that often Oct 20 11:11:36 <[twisti]> ah alright Oct 20 11:11:42 like once a day i think Oct 20 11:11:52 <[twisti]> then ill just assume that its fine unless its still at 0 in two days Oct 20 11:12:27 it wouldnt display the test ad if you didnt supply everything right Oct 20 11:13:27 <[twisti]> i only set my device to test after i saw it display a few actual ads Oct 20 11:13:45 google ads swat team should be crashing thru your window any moment Oct 20 11:18:34 Also when I press escape in the working program, which destroys the context and exit(0);, it just hangs there. Oct 20 11:19:13 Is there something I should do to properly exit? Oct 20 11:19:16 linkmauve1 im going to share an android secret they usually only teach people after a decade of developlment Oct 20 11:19:45 I’m new to it, only started yesterday. ^^ Oct 20 11:19:46 add protected void onPause() { android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid()); } to your Activity Oct 20 11:20:16 see if that doesnt do the trick. maybe you can find a better solution. im not licensed to give development advice Oct 20 11:20:25 Oh, you already told me, sorry. :x Oct 20 11:20:26 hey, can anyone tell me where's android's notification img at ? Oct 20 11:20:27 pls Oct 20 11:22:30 JimmyCarter, oh great, so it aborts once I press the home key, great. :) Oct 20 11:23:51 ndk developers have to ride dirty Oct 20 11:26:32 My game is written in Python, which gets compiled into C, I didn’t want to add a second compile step to Java. :D Oct 20 11:30:00 does anyone knows which is the notification img src for android apps ? want to edit it pls Oct 20 11:38:08 can anyone suggest android app repos on github for a beginner to learn android-dev. I'm reading the google guides and I don't know how to move from here. Oct 20 11:46:28 does anyone knows which is the notification img src for android apps ? want to edit it pls Oct 20 11:53:44 svector: if you found something interesting ping me, I would like to see some too Oct 20 11:57:22 JimmyCarter, yay, it works, I just did stupid things from my python code. ^^ Oct 20 12:01:51 Foxandxss: you gotta check out http://www.quora.com/Android-Development/Which-are-the-best-Android-projects-to-follow-on-GitHub Oct 20 12:02:22 Foxandxss: I found it when I was about to ask the same question Oct 20 12:03:11 thanks :) Oct 20 12:05:44 svector: they are more libraries than open source applications, but that is good too Oct 20 12:06:17 Foxandxss, you're right. http://www.quora.com/Android-Applications/What-are-some-of-the-best-open-source-Android-apps looks better Oct 20 12:07:44 http://i.stack.imgur.com/m5BJB.jpg does anyone knows where is that orange circle img at ? wanna modify it Oct 20 12:12:26 congrats linkmauve1-dr0id Oct 20 12:13:11 It’s still a bit strange to not see python tracebacks anywhere, but I’ll work around that. Oct 20 12:22:28 svector: it is sad to see that many of those libraries (first link) has a lot of bugs but not updates Oct 20 12:30:20 hi i'm trying to import two projects from vcs with android studios.. the second project is a library project that the first one depends on, the library project itself has a jar in libs/, when it comes to the point where this jar is used the app crashes with classnotfoundexception.. the lib is listed under library in file->project structure ... whats wrong? Oct 20 12:41:31 http://i.stack.imgur.com/m5BJB.jpg anyone knows where do i modify that modification icon ? the orange circle.. Oct 20 12:46:38 undeadd: If you're modifying a rom, #android-root - If you're making an app, that's either a manufacturer features or an app widget Oct 20 12:48:54 Or a 3rd party launcher that exposes some api for it.. There's nothing in the android api Oct 20 12:48:55 ok i found out that I have to add the jar to my main project as well to be able to use it.. now there are some resources in that library project which are just not visible in the app... how to make the contents of res/ in a library project available in my main project? Oct 20 12:49:56 SimonVT: the weird thing is, it shows on my gf's 100% stock Xperia Z, on a regular shortcut on her launcher desktop Oct 20 12:50:38 ohcibi: I've got no idea how to do it with AS, but you can't just include the jar Oct 20 12:51:34 Leeds: i know that i cant just include the jar because of the res/... I was talking about a jar file that is inside the library project Oct 20 12:52:54 Leeds: No custom launcher, right? I wouldn't be surprised if the facebook app exposes some api for them to get the notification count Oct 20 12:52:58 Or the other way around Oct 20 12:53:18 Good social network(read: facebook) integration was/is a big feature Oct 20 12:53:22 SimonVT: no custom launcher... er, I'm 95% sure I never installed one for her, 100% sure she never installed one herself Oct 20 12:53:59 I also dont understand why I have to add the library project as module and then the source files as library to use it... quite complicated Oct 20 12:55:16 man im gonna have to buy a second device to test inviting myself to room Oct 20 12:55:22 very conveniant for google Oct 20 12:55:30 ohcibi: because it needs to be merged in, not just included Oct 20 12:55:42 JimmyCarter: fuck it, get an ubuntunutntnu phone Oct 20 12:55:51 AHA Oct 20 12:55:58 it needs to be added as a module dependency Oct 20 12:56:49
