**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 18 02:59:59 2012 Mar 18 03:04:14 guess everyone is out drinking Mar 18 03:04:19 US its st patty day Mar 18 03:10:19 Hi Mar 18 03:12:17 Please help me setting up ADT on Eclipse: http://stackoverflow.com/q/9755587/75500 Mar 18 03:29:21 shimmyw: i saw that. maybe you should try installing eclipse again too - perhaps there is something wrong with the eclipse install Mar 18 03:30:59 shit that sucks, i guess ill have to do it Mar 18 03:34:49 @pinguinux, are you on a windows box? Mar 18 03:35:02 no Mar 18 03:35:37 @louielouie are you on a windows box? Mar 18 03:35:57 @pinguinux, sry i meant louielouie Mar 18 04:21:10 what is a "radio"? Mar 18 04:27:23 therealGentleman: usually it refers to the radio chip/firmware aka "baseband" Mar 18 04:27:49 aha thank you. I had a feeling. Everywhere I look for the stock ROM all that shows up are damn radios Mar 18 04:29:08 therealGentleman: sometimes it might mean that the image you found *includes* the radio baseband, as opposed to a firmware upgrade that doesn't include one Mar 18 04:29:20 so if i open the zip I can still find the rom img? Mar 18 04:29:32 a "bundled" one might be more useful in recovering certain kinds of phones, I guess Mar 18 04:29:35 therealGentleman: possible Mar 18 04:29:39 Makes sense. Mar 18 04:29:55 I'm just trying to boot SOME kind of ROM off of fastboot so maybe I should just grab a custom like cymod or something Mar 18 04:32:56 therealGentleman: you're asking in the wrong channel... Mar 18 04:33:14 Leeds recommend any other channels? Mar 18 04:33:22 #android-root, most likely Mar 18 04:34:08 thanks Mar 18 04:42:57 Can I talk now? Mar 18 04:43:26 Anyone in here get ActionBarSherlock 4 to work recently? Mar 18 04:54:43 Anyone in here get ActionBarSherlock 4 to work recently? Mar 18 04:59:30 I am trying to convert a string of coordinates for Google maps such as "23.345345,-89.23423,0.0000"--I have split the string into an array of strings and then parsed the data into a double, GeoPoint wants two integers for long and lat in microdegrees (1E6) Mar 18 04:59:54 how do I convert the double into an integer suitable for GeoPoint? Mar 18 05:00:46 I have a tried (int) (lat*1E6) Mar 18 05:01:20 but it gives me 3.6E7 Mar 18 05:01:34 and it doesn't place the point in the correct place Mar 18 05:02:54 I do not understand how to parse something like "39.345345" into a integer that I can use in the constructor for GeoPoint Mar 18 05:03:10 can anyone help me? Mar 18 05:08:31 pikapp you realize that if you are chopping off any partial numbers you are REALLY knocking off a ton of precision in your lat/long right? Mar 18 05:08:35 like miles Mar 18 05:09:01 up to 70mi Mar 18 05:09:57 oh microdegrees Mar 18 05:13:10 http://pastebin.com/SC6JVZnp Mar 18 05:14:08 this is how I am converting the strings into ints, the strings are precise such as "52.23423", the result of my code in the Log are numbers like 3.5E7 Mar 18 05:14:21 and thus the map is imprecise Mar 18 05:25:25 is there a C compiler capable of producing byte-code for dalvik ? Mar 18 05:32:44 float lat = -23.4456f; Mar 18 05:32:44 float lng = 45.44334f; Mar 18 05:32:44 GeoPoint gp = new GeoPoint((int)(lat * 1E6), (int)(lng * 1E6)); Mar 18 05:33:58 man... looking in the markets lately Mar 18 05:34:00 its amazing Mar 18 05:34:08 there is a ton of shit, for 99c Mar 18 05:34:14 I mean shitty apps, and some good Mar 18 05:34:18 and some good apps for free Mar 18 05:34:25 seems like it'd be hard to make money in that ecosystem Mar 18 05:35:51 Say, using the NDK, can i do my entire app in plain ansi c ? Mar 18 05:36:14 now you should be able to Mar 18 05:36:21 before you had to use jni and shit Mar 18 05:36:35 oh, starting with which version ? Mar 18 05:37:27 I dont know Mar 18 05:37:54 ok, thanks though :) sounds like i dont have to touch java Mar 18 05:37:57 I got the impression it was like v13, but also seemed like they were saying that would be back ported Mar 18 05:38:18 appreciated Mar 18 05:42:41 every since google play store auto updated n replaced android market it forces close everytime, "the application google play store (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" , I tried uninstalling/reinstalling.. uninstlaling, installing android market 3.47. I also tried using rom manager and "FIX PERMISSIONS" and still does not work (htc evo shift running Mar 18 05:42:41 cyanogen 7.1 speedy)..any ideas? Mar 18 06:21:11 any idea how I could debug a "Library not found" error? how could I get a more descriptive error message? Mar 18 06:21:19 * jni library Mar 18 06:28:32 pandrew - you deploy via adb? Mar 18 06:28:41 is this custom hardware or something known? Mar 18 06:28:55 usually the .so dont get installed correctly or its a naming prob Mar 18 06:33:32 hello all Mar 18 06:37:28 anyone familiar with postgis? Mar 18 06:38:32 small job - happy to pay Mar 18 06:45:33 ron_frown: I solved it. it looks like my problem was related to this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/android-ndk/browse_thread/thread/735334a01fc9df86/ff4a938f5d381b7c Mar 18 06:45:59 ron_frown: when one shared library wants to access symbols from another shared library Mar 18 06:46:22 i'm curious in which version of android this was fixed Mar 18 06:51:21 Any good recommendations for android app source code I can stare at? I feel like my code is messy, and I want to see how other people structure their code Mar 18 06:51:53 if theres any tricks i dont know about, etc Mar 18 06:54:25 abstract, honestly I've learned a lot from android apps Mar 18 06:54:30 eg, googles source Mar 18 06:55:47 yeah I'm browsing around github Mar 18 06:56:19 should look at the google stuff too Mar 18 06:59:40 jesus... do i have to identify every time I enter the channel? Mar 18 07:00:36 anyways developer.android.com/resources has a decent amount of pretty simple sample code Mar 18 07:02:26 AbstractClass: check out the Google IO app source Mar 18 07:02:46 http://code.google.com/p/iosched/ Mar 18 07:03:03 Yeah I just got that one Mar 18 07:03:03 thanks Mar 18 07:03:32 great Mar 18 07:07:35 how do you all come up with "practice applications" to code to help you learn? I'm looking for something thats not to hard to try myself on Mar 18 07:09:14 PattyMacky just build something that owul dhelp you out Mar 18 07:09:21 then release in app store, because chances are, it'd sell Mar 18 07:09:29 I build some badass shit, for my employer Mar 18 07:09:34 cant come up with my own ideas =) Mar 18 07:10:06 haha i think i'm a little too new to develop some badass shit Mar 18 07:10:23 yeah its hard for me to figure out a project that is doable for my skill level Mar 18 07:11:27 ron_frown: same here, I'm too busy writing code for other people Mar 18 07:11:37 not too busy Mar 18 07:11:49 just cant come up with ideas Mar 18 07:11:59 ron_frown: hah, yeah, that's a problem too :) Mar 18 07:12:47 PattyMacky: start with something that can make your day to day life easier Mar 18 07:12:54 PattyMacky: I like to browse around for interesting datasets. It's a lot easier to come up with ideas if you've got a bunch of cool data to play with. Mar 18 07:13:20 http://www.civicapps.org/ Mar 18 07:13:26 http://www.data.gov/opendata Mar 18 07:13:54 then http://www.programmableweb.com/ is your friend Mar 18 07:41:41 anyone here that has experience with abs 4.0? Mar 18 07:42:01 i imported all of the sherlock classes and keep getting errors on my getMenuInflater(); Mar 18 07:42:12 i made sure to use android.support.v4.view* imports Mar 18 07:42:39 when I try to inflate my menu in onCreateOptions Mar 18 07:44:05 I thought it changed how you were supposed to use abs now Mar 18 07:44:13 eg, was completely separate Mar 18 07:44:53 what do you mean? Mar 18 07:47:04 I thought it wasnt necessarily tied to compat lib Mar 18 07:47:09 I dont know Mar 18 07:47:17 I could have sworn you and I were talking about that Mar 18 07:48:39 ya, im having issues with inflating menu Mar 18 07:50:39 the stuff I am building wasnt using menus anyway Mar 18 07:51:12 until I found out that the DPI stuff in android os is kind of just an arbitrary multiplier Mar 18 07:51:26 eg, shit wasnt fitting ont he screen so all menu items would never show up Mar 18 07:51:35 because it was on extremely low res display Mar 18 08:01:58 QubeZ - just im the shit out of jake Mar 18 08:02:00 haha Mar 18 08:02:15 what? "shit out of jake"? Mar 18 08:37:51 anyone who is running stock ics 4.0.4 pm me Mar 18 08:46:36 hi all Mar 18 08:46:52 what's the suggestion for a view to draw a 2d grphic in realtime ? Mar 18 08:49:05 aLeSD: surfaceview Mar 18 08:50:04 it's not possible to draw realtime gfx in another view than surfaceview Mar 18 08:55:15 mmm... I have a doubt Mar 18 08:55:19 (as ususal) Mar 18 08:56:25 I have some threads that are doing some stuff on the points I have to draw. Then I want to send the data to the views and redraw which have new data . Which is the best pattern ? Mar 18 08:57:07 maybe I have to create a game loop on the main thread Mar 18 09:10:14 aLeSD: use a gameloop.. i think there is a sample thats doing just that in the sdk... lunarlander Mar 18 09:16:03 add loading dialog with progress bar Mar 18 09:16:19 pork and beans Mar 18 09:16:26 jakob|, ok thanks Mar 18 09:45:00 do I have to use an handler postdelayed loop for drawing ? Mar 18 09:45:17 I mean ... a while will lock the main thread Mar 18 09:45:28 hi Mar 18 09:45:40 Ugh. Android is both impressive and frustrating to code for. :/ Mar 18 09:46:29 I have three pages on a pager with instantiateItem, how can refresh dynamically the pages on the sides ? Mar 18 10:23:19 Anyone here use libgdx? Mar 18 11:07:05 how could tell a View to redraw itself ? Mar 18 11:09:23 aLeSD: invalidate it? Mar 18 11:17:41 Leeds, thanks Mar 18 11:17:58 I just finished the arch of my app ... yeah ! Mar 18 11:44:09 so if I use Google API to do something, what do I have to worry about concerning the enduser's phone? Mar 18 11:44:26 any person can make use of my activity? Mar 18 11:46:40 they all have google api don't they Mar 18 11:57:39 is there a way to make the views in a tablelayout perfectly rectangular even when columns are shrinked? Mar 18 11:57:42 or expanded Mar 18 11:57:52 perfectly square even Mar 18 12:58:09 hey guys Mar 18 12:58:37 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14dOICbwSIs Mar 18 12:58:52 now create something! Mar 18 12:59:10 i got a problem with my SQL-db ... http://pastebin.com/q43inV1k ... i'm basically trying to add one to the value stored in that specific row&column but all i get is just "1" no matter how often i call this method Mar 18 13:00:15 well, check the value before you add 1 Mar 18 13:00:18 and obviously it will be 0 Mar 18 13:00:27 so your parse is failing Mar 18 13:00:36 well, probably not failing, but you are doing something wrong Mar 18 13:01:25 i know i do and i checked the value before and after ... but where is that stupid mistake? Mar 18 13:01:52 first trace the value before you parse to int Mar 18 13:01:55 make sure it is the number you want Mar 18 13:02:00 in string format Mar 18 13:02:04 don't assume that it is correct Mar 18 13:03:21 ok Mar 18 13:04:10 03-18 12:53:19.353: I/System.out(592): Playerstats - updating (temp_total:0--- getString:0 Mar 18 13:04:10 that's what i get ... so the getString is "0" as a string ... and Temp_total also Mar 18 13:04:24 i guess i'm not updating it correct Mar 18 13:04:30 :) Mar 18 13:04:50 learning to effectively debug is about as tricky as learning basic programming Mar 18 13:05:00 true ;) Mar 18 13:06:49 so you don't have an idea where my mistake is hidden? Mar 18 13:11:14 should I use a broadcast listener to execute a function of a parent class ? Mar 18 13:16:08 if you uninstall an app, does it remove the database as well? Mar 18 13:17:01 Surfer2010, I am assuming this is doing work on a row that already exists in the DB? Mar 18 13:17:17 yes Mar 18 13:18:04 kevwilde: yes, unless you use the adb option to tell it not to Mar 18 13:20:31 Surfer2010, Have you tried using the query method, instead of update, just for troubleshooting purposes? Also, have you check to make sure temp_total is actually being incremementeed before the update? Mar 18 13:22:40 eniacpx: here is the query for finding the "player" = row i need to update Mar 18 13:22:41 http://pastebin.com/KpfNxXKs Mar 18 13:22:53 Surfer2010, sorry not query, execSQL Mar 18 13:23:05 And just hadn coding the update statement Mar 18 13:23:10 hadn=hand Mar 18 13:23:34 what do you mean eniacpx Mar 18 13:24:36 Surfer2010, use execSQL instead of update to see if you can get it to update that way. There's no reason the update method shouldn't work, but it is something you could try. Mar 18 13:25:10 but using the execSQL i need to "recreate" the entire db don't i ? Mar 18 13:25:55 Leeds: how can i check which columns are in my table without rooting it? Mar 18 13:26:07 i get an "unknown columns in projection" error Mar 18 13:27:29 Surfer2010, No, execSQL is just a way to manually run a query of your choice. You can use it to create a database, but you could also use it to run an update query. Mar 18 13:28:42 did i do any syntax-error in the update? Mar 18 13:28:47 unsreDatenbank.update(DATABASE_TABLE2, cvAddStat, KEY_ROWIDS + "=" + rowID, null); <--- Mar 18 13:29:28 Why are the icon sizes recommendation different from those in the downloadable pack for the action bar ? Mar 18 13:30:45 Surfer2010, It looks fine, and I am not sure why it wouldnt work that way. I am not sure if you answered this, but did you check to see if temp_total was being incremented properly before the update? Mar 18 13:31:53 i don't know how to use the debug mode in eclipse but i "system.out-printed" it before and after adding 1 Mar 18 13:32:09 before it was 0 just like the string i'm getting Mar 18 13:32:12 and after it was 1 Mar 18 13:33:16 Surfer2010, What about printing out "columnscompleteStats[target]"? Does that return what you would expect? Mar 18 13:33:18 The recommendations for hdpi is 36x36 px but in the files downloded from the designer's guide they're 48x48 px. Mar 18 13:33:49 yes Mar 18 13:34:13 oh wait Mar 18 13:34:26 it is returning Mar 18 13:34:58 attack_attempt <--- this Mar 18 13:35:10 public static final String KEY_AT_A = "attack_attempt"; <---- but i need "KEY_AT_A" don't i ? Mar 18 13:36:04 or is that the same = doesn't matter which i use Mar 18 13:36:59 Surfer2010, What is the actual column in the data called? Mar 18 13:37:07 "attack_attempt" Mar 18 13:37:09 ? Mar 18 13:37:31 sorry I menat column in the database Mar 18 13:37:45 menat=meant Mar 18 13:37:55 wow I cant type this morning. Mar 18 13:38:03 the column is called "KEY_AT_A" Mar 18 13:38:25 Surfer2010, Theres your issue then. Mar 18 13:38:30 can I use BroadcastReceiver without having to write "public class MyApp extends BroadcastReceiver" ? Mar 18 13:39:10 but columnscompleteStats is actually having all those Mar 18 13:39:11 String[] columnscompleteStats = new String[]{ KEY_ROWIDS, KEY_ROWIDP, KEY_OPP, KEY_GDATE, KEY_GSET, Mar 18 13:39:11 KEY_AT_A, KEY_AT_P, KEY_AT_N, KEY_AT_F, KEY_RC_A, KEY_RC_P, KEY_RC_N, KEY_RC_F, Mar 18 13:39:11 KEY_DF_A, KEY_DF_P, KEY_DF_N, KEY_DF_F, KEY_BL_A, KEY_BL_P, KEY_BL_N, KEY_BL_F, Mar 18 13:39:11 KEY_SE_A, KEY_SE_P, KEY_SE_N, KEY_SE_F }; Mar 18 13:39:26 mhh Mar 18 13:39:56 Surfer2010, Send me the code you used to create the database Mar 18 13:40:39 no, paste here everything. Mar 18 13:41:31 http://pastebin.com/Jq3C5vTW Mar 18 13:43:59 anything missing eniacpx ? Mar 18 13:44:07 I am not sure then. Everything looks fine. Mar 18 13:44:16 mhhhh :( Mar 18 13:44:21 Surfer2010, Not what you wanted to hear, but I can't see an issue. :( Mar 18 13:45:57 damn ... :( Mar 18 13:46:13 i hope anyone else can find something? Mar 18 13:46:23 any idea what to check eniacpx Mar 18 13:46:56 Surfer2010, read through this in the meantime to see if you can find anything you missed: http://www.vogella.de/articles/AndroidSQLite/article.html Mar 18 13:47:20 Hi all. I'm thinking about doing my first android app based on an app I found on Linux: a python script that finds a mms url and launches mplayer with this url. Would it be possible to have my app computing the mms url and launching vplayer and make it open this url. Is it possible to control an other app? Mar 18 13:47:45 Surfer2010, Wish I could be more help! Gotta go though. Mar 18 13:48:19 thanks a lot anyway eniacpx Mar 18 13:49:26 frikinz, read this: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html especially read and THINK about the section on Activities. That should answer your questions. Mar 18 13:50:17 I've got a horizontalScrollView with 5 tabs in it. I want the horizontalScrollView to scroll to to the middle so the 3rd tab ist centered......this doesn't work in onResume or onCreate...what can I do to pre scroll befoer the user interacts with my widgets? Mar 18 13:50:38 Surfer2010, No problem, I will back later, if you are still here I'll check in and see if you found your solution. Mar 18 14:02:12 A sub-class knows the context of its parent class, now, I can I execute a method that's in the parent class from the sub-class ? Mar 18 14:02:32 do I need to pass something else than the context ? Mar 18 14:06:25 maxagaz, is the method private in the parent class? Mar 18 14:06:52 jeppy: I can make it private... Mar 18 14:07:41 no I was going to say that's why Mar 18 14:08:30 it should be visible to the child class if it is declared protected or public Mar 18 14:08:48 jeppy: it's public Mar 18 14:09:00 and the child class cant see it? Mar 18 14:09:09 that makes no sense Mar 18 14:09:15 jeppy: it seems it can't Mar 18 14:09:24 use a pastebin Mar 18 14:09:39 jeppy: I'm trying parentContext. but it's not listed Mar 18 14:10:11 you should be able to access it without any prefix Mar 18 14:11:26 jeppy: without a prefix, I get: The method setViewData() is undefined for the type ViewPagerAdapter Mar 18 14:11:49 use a pastebin Mar 18 14:12:55 is it normal that i have duplicate A & AAAA records? Mar 18 14:14:03 why is my container view always null :( Mar 18 14:19:18 jeppy: http://pastebin.com/X8yRAjyM Mar 18 14:19:38 jeppy: I cleaned it to make it more clear Mar 18 14:20:52 when launching an activity, I get that it's made to be attached with a debugger, why is that? Mar 18 14:21:02 jeppy: the two classes are in separate files Mar 18 14:21:02 it launches in debug mode, that is Mar 18 14:23:23 hey y'all. if i'm using MediaPlayer to play a sound in my app, how do i go about have the sound continue to play on orientation change? right now the currently playing sound gets stopped on rotation... Mar 18 14:26:48 jeppy: seems I have to use public static Mar 18 14:33:28 how to use findViewById in a public static method ? Mar 18 14:36:49 I added a drawable to the folder and refreshed, now I see it in the project's folder but I try to access it, it isn't there Mar 18 14:36:59 I've already imported my own R, and I can access other drawables.. Mar 18 14:37:14 ah, just needed clean Mar 18 14:40:15 alright, so all of this is now implemented in my project, http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.html Mar 18 14:40:46 but the point of my activity is that upon entering it, you get to see that android marker on the location where the user is in Mar 18 14:41:02 I don't want to set the geopoint manually, I want it to be determined and set to the overlay and then displayed Mar 18 14:44:02 anyone here to help me with that update Method of SQL ? Mar 18 14:44:30 i tried about everything but can't get it to work for some reasons Mar 18 14:44:51 hi Mar 18 14:44:56 I have trouble installing the USB drivers. It says in the AVD that I installed google usb drivers under extras but i have no catalogue extras under C:\Program Files (x86)\android\android-sdk\ Mar 18 14:45:00 don't ask to ask, just paste the stack trace and problem description and someone will answer if they know Mar 18 14:47:06 http://pastebin.com/CzfP44zG this is my method trying to "add 3" to the value in that column+row ... but it's not working Mar 18 14:47:18 readme: dataja Mar 18 14:47:38 onr: =O =O Mar 18 14:48:01 I think I will use InetAddressLocator to find the location and then send it to the geopoint Mar 18 14:49:28 Surfer2010: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/Cursor.html#getColumnIndex(java.lang.String) Mar 18 14:49:33 don't hard code your column indexes Mar 18 14:49:34 use that method Mar 18 14:49:52 the code likely has multiple problems, so I can't tell you why it doesnt' work definitively Mar 18 14:50:10 I'm new too android developments, java. How can i make a "button" onclick link to another layout? Mar 18 14:52:37 i had variables in that before but with those it didn't work so i thought i will tryit with the "numbers" Mar 18 14:53:14 Aha2Y: Have the onClick do a setContentView(R.layout.other) Mar 18 14:54:48 Surfer2010: you should get it to work every time if you use the getColumnIndex method to resolve the column name to an index. Mar 18 14:54:54 it will also work when you change the schema, of course Mar 18 14:55:44 also you've got to close those cursors Mar 18 14:55:46 you're leaking two cursors Mar 18 14:56:31 also relying on position 143 to be there is not wise--- check getCount() first Mar 18 14:56:56 my recommendation at this point would be to find a good example and copy it Mar 18 15:00:03 readme: this is the example i used and my code (before i simplified it to find the error) http://pastebin.com/NQXdwHUh Mar 18 15:01:11 can someone tell where extras installs on windows? it says I installed but i cant see it under android\android-sdk Mar 18 15:01:33 target is an int so i don't need to resolve the column name do i ?

Mar 18 16:13:44 Untouchab1e: if you're not supporting 1.6 i think you can get away with just not calling setShowAsAction if Build.VERSION.SDK_INT is below 11 Mar 18 16:13:50 veeti: NoSuchMethodError fixed it Mar 18 16:13:59 but thanks Mar 18 16:17:15 <`z> k night bitches Mar 18 16:18:02 how do i tun SDK Manager.exe from tje command prompt, it dosnt seem to work the space between SDK and Manager Mar 18 16:27:09 if I pass the context of a class to another, can I access its variables ?
