**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Oct 05 02:59:58 2012 Oct 05 03:35:41 I have a project I am targetting 14 with min 7 (or 8, can't remember offhand, anyways 2.2). My question is I have a minimal custom action bar (I want to keep the back/overflow as standard to follow the design pattern). My question is what's the best way to determine if there is a physical menu key so I can hide my overflow action "button" if there is such a physical menu key? View.configuration's doesn't work since it'll crash Oct 05 03:37:05 Or does anyone know where in the source the actionbar is able to determine whether to hide the overflow? Oct 05 03:41:15 you don't control that Oct 05 03:41:17 the system does Oct 05 03:41:44 don't worry about, use showAsAction="ifRoom", and let the system do what's right Oct 05 03:41:55 *I am not using any actionbar, but a totally custom implementation that mimics the back functionality and the overflow functionality Oct 05 03:42:04 ... Oct 05 03:42:09 so... use the actionbar? Oct 05 03:42:30 I had to give the actionbar up since inflating a customview into an actionbar is not considered part of the measured width when determing the split the bar Oct 05 03:42:43 I'm out Oct 05 03:43:23 *determining to split the action bar, ie i had some textview in the action bar that would get overlapped by menu actions Oct 05 03:43:38 instead of it splitting, as I'd hope it would Oct 05 03:49:35 how do I use a minimalist number picker? doesn't have to be a slider.. although a slider with half a digit above and below might be nice too.. Oct 05 03:49:42 at this point I can just use a + - picker too Oct 05 03:51:25 jaggz I saw at least two code projects online for that, some time ago Oct 05 03:53:12 ron_frown: you there ? Oct 05 03:54:57 always Oct 05 03:55:30 ron_frown: heh, quick q since you used to have the truck i have, and you still have a dodge - is there a replacement schedule for the timing chain ? Oct 05 03:55:38 HAHAH Oct 05 03:55:46 :) Oct 05 03:55:49 on the the 3.9 I did mine at like 50k Oct 05 03:55:58 teh timing chains in there stretch Oct 05 03:55:59 FAST Oct 05 03:56:10 I replaced it with a diff style tensioner Oct 05 03:56:27 wow. i mean, i have not seen any literature or anything. i guess you just have to check up on it Oct 05 03:56:39 is it pinging bad Oct 05 03:56:50 pinging - yeah, it always had though Oct 05 03:57:19 i thought that timing would be adjusted by reprogramming the computer though Oct 05 03:57:23 no no Oct 05 03:57:25 (not something i can do) Oct 05 03:57:43 it retards/advances for ignition timing Oct 05 03:58:02 if its pinging it should be retarded, right ? Oct 05 03:58:24 but chain gets loose enough it can actually jump a tooth, then things get progressively worse =) Oct 05 03:58:37 yuck :( Oct 05 03:58:47 how many miles Oct 05 03:58:51 160k Oct 05 03:59:00 oh shits yeah its due Oct 05 03:59:12 I think they recommend 90-100k Oct 05 03:59:26 thats what i could not find … where is the schedule ? Oct 05 03:59:27 when I did mine, it magically started running a LOT better Oct 05 03:59:34 ok, cool Oct 05 03:59:36 what year Oct 05 03:59:40 1997 :) Oct 05 03:59:59 i can't believe the damn thing still runs XD Oct 05 04:01:17 it would be really cool if there was a bluetooth dongle thing that transmitted OBD II codes to my android phone :D Oct 05 04:01:20 find a pdf of it Oct 05 04:01:24 owners manual Oct 05 04:01:27 it should have that shit in thee Oct 05 04:01:37 I've never seen a car that had longer than 90k for timing anything Oct 05 04:01:45 belts were usually 60-80k Oct 05 04:01:56 chains are USUALLY longer but the dakota was especially bad with them Oct 05 04:04:08 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgO2g8JB1us Oct 05 04:04:11 there yo go g00s Oct 05 04:04:36 Bear10- sorry I havent got back to you i've been pulling long days Oct 05 04:05:10 ron_frown: cool , thanks. tere is no mention of it in my manual's schedule, which stops at 120k anyhow :) i guess dodge doesn't expect their trucks to last past that Oct 05 04:05:27 should have got a diesel Oct 05 04:06:10 I remember about some dude who was complainging about how he developed weird symptom on thw fwy, shaking... so the guys on the forum ask mileage and year of truck etc Oct 05 04:06:18 he goes on to say he was at 575k mi Oct 05 04:06:30 haha Oct 05 04:06:57 a dodge at 575k? Oct 05 04:07:09 * g00s is skeptical Oct 05 04:07:12 dodge cummins Oct 05 04:07:18 ok Oct 05 04:07:23 the truck was falling apart aroudn it Oct 05 04:07:30 but the engines are solid Oct 05 04:14:06 Anyone know if it's possible to use SimpleOnGestureDetector with multitouch? I have one giant linear layout covering the screen, and it only seems to be picking up one finger at a time Oct 05 04:23:22 hi, I'm using the tabs of SherlockActionBar and I'm having problems when trying to find a view by id. I have this piece of code: TextView textView_nombre = (TextView)(perfilFragment.getView().findViewById(R.id.textView_nombre)); Oct 05 04:23:34 and the app crushes Oct 05 04:23:40 im using sherlockfragments Oct 05 04:24:13 doppio: Not SimpleOnGuestureListener, no. It only supports the events it has methods for. ScaleGuestureDetector has support for scaling. Since scaling's the only two-finger standard guesture, anything else and you'll have to implement TouchListener. Oct 05 04:24:31 kulas: you are trying to get the TextView of a fragment? Oct 05 04:24:37 kulas: from the Activity? Oct 05 04:24:56 kulas: if yes, that is the problem. you just don't do that. (you could get it to work though) Oct 05 04:25:12 kulas: but i think what is making you problems is the activity/fragment lifecycle Oct 05 04:25:32 freeone3000, Actually, what I mean is I'd like to be able to detect multiple gestures at once. SimpleOnGestureListener does support detection of scrolling at tapping, and what I'd like to do is detect when a user taps while already scrolling Oct 05 04:25:53 Currently both work fine independently, but a tap is not registered if a scroll is already in progress Oct 05 04:26:29 howdy Oct 05 04:26:38 pboos: mmm but what should I do? Oct 05 04:26:51 pboos: its the first time I work with fragments Oct 05 04:27:20 kulas: question is, what do you want to do? Oct 05 04:28:42 pboos: I need to change the text of the TextView that has the id R.id.textView_nombre Oct 05 04:30:03 when do you want to do that? when the fragment is loaded? Oct 05 04:33:23 kulas: is it just the first time you want to change it? or if something happens? Oct 05 04:33:46 kulas: most likely you want to do it in the fragment in onCreateView or onStart Oct 05 04:34:10 pboos: I have an activity where the user enters some information. After the user enters the information, another activity appears, this activity has 3 tabs in it so I used Sherlock Action Bar with SherlockFragments to implement the tabs. In one tab I must show in a textview the info that the users enter on the other activity Oct 05 04:34:48 kulas: okay.. so you will have to give arguments to the fragment, that will be considered in the onCreateView Oct 05 04:35:15 kulas: an example for that is here: http://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html Oct 05 04:35:37 kulas: search for DetailsFragment where they show how to do it Oct 05 04:35:58 pboos: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I think I got it! thanks pboos! Oct 05 04:49:12 pboos: it worked! Thanks again :) Oct 05 04:49:47 So, any thoughts on how I might detect simultaneous gestures, preferably using SimpleOnGestureListener? I'm quite lost here, not sure why it's not working as-is Oct 05 05:07:59 i got a nexus one to test my app I made using the emulator. my app doesn't write to the /mnt/sdcard. I set android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. I can't even seem to access the sdcard via the adb shell. I get cd: can't cd to sdcard. I am stumped as to why this is occurring. I read that I may need to root my device but I can't expect all users need to root their devices so I am just stumped. An Oct 05 05:08:00 tips? Oct 05 05:09:15 hey, if I want to measure the space my surfaceView has to expand (so I can select the size of the content to put into it), how do I do that? I don't think it's right to get the screen dimensions because the screen is not completly visible... Oct 05 05:15:30 edman007: there are a couple of ways Oct 05 05:15:53 you can force the view to be measured Oct 05 05:15:58 or maybe this will work http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4393612/when-can-i-first-measure-a-view Oct 05 05:16:40 onMeasure is probably the right place to do it, actually Oct 05 05:17:01 alright, thanks, i'll try that Oct 05 05:22:54 Anyone know the answer to this problem? I have a tablet, got the drivers installed etc etc, when i look at my device manager it shows up correctly, but in eclipse no luck Oct 05 05:27:28 it doesn't make sense that i need to root a phone to debug a simple app and write to a sdcard. oh well i will drink Oct 05 05:27:30 Bear10, what OS? Oct 05 05:28:22 ecret: you *are* using the external storage directory returned from the API, not a hard-coded path... right? Oct 05 05:29:09 Leeds, yep . Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath(); Oct 05 05:29:23 but it doesn't write? Oct 05 05:29:30 pastebin test code please... Oct 05 05:30:39 http://pastebin.com/9HwruiHy Oct 05 05:31:15 I can't even adb shell to see the /mnt/sdcard path, i get cd: can't cd to sdcard Oct 05 05:31:32 so no writing to it is possible, and no reading since i just try to access files i wrote Oct 05 05:31:38 then it's not mounted there Oct 05 05:31:44 ello Oct 05 05:32:50 Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath(); gives that path. i pretty much can't write files to the device when using an actual phone(testing with nexus one 2.3.6). It works fine in the emulator Oct 05 05:32:59 edman007, windows 7 Oct 05 05:32:59 sorry Oct 05 05:34:18 ecret: yeah... you can, so something is weird Oct 05 05:34:37 should i wipe the phone or something? Oct 05 05:34:44 no, of course not Oct 05 05:34:54 if you ls in /mnt/ what do you see? Oct 05 05:34:59 ecret: have you tried ddms, or some mtp client if on mac or something ? Oct 05 05:35:26 http://pastebin.com/gZ4P73h6 is ls /mnt Oct 05 05:35:44 g00s: i tried ddms, with file explorer i can't expand sdcard folder Oct 05 05:35:51 and cd sdcard gives a perm. error? Oct 05 05:36:06 weird. is there a developer setting you don't have applied on the phone maybe ? Oct 05 05:36:15 i set it Oct 05 05:36:21 >.> Oct 05 05:36:24 lrwxrwxrwx root root 2012-10-04 18:54 sdcard -> /mnt/sdcard Oct 05 05:36:32 * Bear10 still can't get his tablet working in eclipse Oct 05 05:36:34 :( Oct 05 05:36:45 cd sdcard gives cd: can't cd to sdcard Oct 05 05:36:51 wait, /mnt/sdcard is a link to /mnt/sdcard? Oct 05 05:37:19 have you tried..physically removing/reattaching the card? Oct 05 05:37:26 sorry i did the ls -l in the /. Actually in /mnt i ls -l sdcard gives d--------- system system 2012-10-04 18:54 sdcard Oct 05 05:37:48 right, that's wrong Oct 05 05:37:59 run mount and pastebin, please Oct 05 05:38:00 ugh syntax errors.. why.. Oct 05 05:39:13 Streusel: maybe because... your syntax is wrong Oct 05 05:39:18 nope Oct 05 05:39:35 had some weird statement in it that it didn't like Oct 05 05:39:42 not sure where it appeared out of though.. Oct 05 05:39:44 wasn't there before Oct 05 05:41:42 ecret: ? Oct 05 05:43:24 Leeds: still trying , i need root it seems Oct 05 05:43:34 you don't need root to run mount Oct 05 05:44:05 Hi everyone, is there a way to register some sort of callback when soft-keyboard is about to shown? Maybe, something like Activity.onPreKeyboardVisible()? Oct 05 05:44:36 Leeds: which parameters with mount do you recommend? Oct 05 05:44:54 no parameters - if I wanted parameters I'd have added parameters... just "mount" Oct 05 05:45:58 hey- is it considered "okay" to have a background service running on my app continuously waiting for a connection in order to sync up any unsynced changes to my server? After it completes the sync, the service terminates. Thanks Oct 05 05:46:10 Leeds : http://pastebin.com/y23hFask Oct 05 05:46:34 ecret: so, um... your SD card isn't mounted Oct 05 05:47:20 which *probably* explains why you can't write to it Oct 05 05:47:22 Leeds: that would explain why its not working, that i have no sdcard mounted. Oct 05 05:47:45 yeah…i thought it was a permission issue Oct 05 05:48:17 no, it's a trying-to-write-to-something-which-isn't-there issue Oct 05 05:49:20 maybe reboot the phone Oct 05 05:49:50 Leeds: is there another path to write to? temp path? It is a new phone, maybe it has no sdcard? I am new to physical devices that are not emulators Oct 05 05:49:52 @shad0w1e I don't thing that would cause problem. Just do't do loop forever. Maybe, after several try failed, you terminate the service and try to do it again, when the app can connect to server. Oct 05 05:50:44 can the app receive an intent when the internet connection came back? Oct 05 05:50:45 i assumed the 512 megs of memory that came with the phone was the /sdcard Oct 05 05:52:09 um... no - the SD card is the SD card Oct 05 05:52:16 it's a little card you plug into the phone Oct 05 05:52:27 micro sd card~ Oct 05 05:53:04 shad0w1e: check ConnectivityManager Oct 05 05:53:41 * Leeds -> lunch, curry time! Oct 05 05:53:43 Leeds: i got it. Really poor mistake on my part. Thanks for your help Oct 05 05:53:52 sweet. And I can register this receiver specifically when I know I need it and unregister it after? Oct 05 05:53:58 ugh failing D: Oct 05 05:54:16 ecret: apology accepted :) Oct 05 05:54:22 as a generic question, do people write to sdcard's? it seems a risky thing Oct 05 05:54:49 Why risky? Test if one is mounted, if mounted - use. Oct 05 05:54:53 I want my spinner to when clicked start a new window.. one that uses the onListItemClick.. Oct 05 05:55:39 current issue is that I got a 'Class' that's underlined yellow and won't go away.. Oct 05 05:55:39 true true. If its not mounted, is there another alternative i can google for? Oct 05 05:56:01 after i leave this channel i am making a new irc name after such a poor mistake! Oct 05 05:56:01 The internal storage Oct 05 05:56:12 ok thanks gents Oct 05 05:58:13 leeds, how can I port my 'String paste_time = classes[position];' from onListItemClick over to.. onTouch? Oct 05 05:58:16 or something similar Oct 05 05:59:10 Because currently I'm erroring because my paste_time is an unknown variable as it's defined in onListItemClick however it won't port it over to onTouch Oct 05 06:04:58 bahaha Oct 05 06:05:05 been looknig at some commercial property listings.... Oct 05 06:05:08 AS-IS; property has mold. Priced to sale. Need repairs. Great for a learning academy or day care Oct 05 06:07:30 hmm app starts now but no diff.. Oct 05 06:07:31 ugh Oct 05 06:12:30 ...learn about scope Oct 05 06:15:14 Anyone know how fortumo (in-app payment sdk) managed to put resources in a jar and use them? Oct 05 06:15:17 enough for today ._. Oct 05 06:35:15 hi, I made an activity that sets a wallpaper. all the images have the same resolution 480x800. some of them get stretched, and some others don't. so what should I do to make the wallpaper fit to one and only one screen? Oct 05 06:58:28 hey, I have a textview and I want to choose an image from the gallery and put it into the textview. The problem is that the image is too big and doesnt scale to the textview size Oct 05 06:58:37 the textview expands with the image Oct 05 06:58:41 how can I prevent that? Oct 05 07:03:59 should i be calling close() on the SQLiteDatabse i get from SQLOpenHelper in my service whenever i stop using it? i.e. essentially for every "operation" ? Oct 05 07:04:35 does the android emulator run network services? I created an WebView app but it detects Inactive Network Notification Oct 05 07:04:46 but loading a page in the browser worked.. Oct 05 07:07:22 well adding the permissions in manifest helps.. d'oh Oct 05 07:09:25 hi, I made an activity that sets a wallpaper. all the images have the same resolution 480x800. some of them get stretched, and some others don't. so what should I do to make the wallpaper fit to one and only one screen? Oct 05 08:07:13 ohai people Oct 05 08:41:12 I have array/list with row ids, how can I delete rows which are not in this array from database? Can I do it with just sqlite? Oct 05 08:42:25 Pitel_IPEX, I assume you'll have to iterate through the elements of the db and check them against each element in the array/list Oct 05 08:42:47 I don't know how exactly you do that since I haven't used sqlite Oct 05 08:44:51 Hello I have a project with 4 fragments: home->browse->browse detail->content... On orientation change the previous current fragment is reloaded as the current fragment; however, because it's being reloaded by the activity life cycle the fragments are not being initialized and hence are null causing NPE... What am I doing wrong? Or do I have to save current fragment in onsaveinstancestate Oct 05 08:44:51 and reinitialize/add to the back stack up until the previous current fragment? Oct 05 08:44:53 ok, maybe #sqlite will be better channel to ask :) Oct 05 08:45:17 Pitel_IPEX can you be more specific? Oct 05 08:45:30 ugh, after spending a whole day on getting P2P to work, here I am again Oct 05 08:45:38 The array contains id's, i'm assuming this is the primary id of the table ie the column _id? Oct 05 08:46:26 TomP2P, while it looked potent, wouldn't even run once without throwing odd exceptions Oct 05 08:46:43 lasserix: unfortunately not, the array actyualy contains unique key, not exactly _id. Oct 05 08:46:49 any other ideas/projects that implement P2P in Android? Oct 05 08:46:54 (for a game) Oct 05 08:47:20 Then you need to do a query for the unique that corrosponds to the field in your table, and remove them as needed Oct 05 08:48:01 lasserix: so the sql migth be something like: delete from my_table where my_column_is_not_in_list. the where part is what I'm looking for. Oct 05 08:50:51 You can either do a two pass query, grab all the pids of existing, and then do a delete on all not equal Oct 05 08:52:18 Sorry don't know more, someone in sqlite will probably have a concise statement for you Oct 05 08:52:33 lasserix: sqlite guys says "WHERE x NOT IN (1,2,3)" will do it :) Oct 05 08:52:40 ahh cool Oct 05 08:55:52 If I have a stack of fragments that I need to be initialized to pass an object too, what's the best way to handle orientation changes? Ie the activity will correctly replace the fragment, but since it wasn't initialized it'll be null and give me a NPE Oct 05 09:25:01 When an orientation change happens, and a fragment is re-attached, how can I get a reference to the fragment? Oct 05 09:26:44 is there a way to replace the main layout with my own custom layout? i can't delete the default one from the editor Oct 05 09:27:06 ultra- using eclipse? Oct 05 09:27:20 yep…just realized i can probably remove via xml Oct 05 09:27:47 You define your custom layout in .xml then change the setContentView() call in onCreate in your activity to point to the new custom layout Oct 05 09:28:05 ok,thanks Oct 05 09:28:16 or i could do it via code and call setContentView() Oct 05 09:28:53 android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: near "?": syntax error (code 1): , while compiling: DELETE FROM locations WHERE location NOT IN ? Oct 05 09:29:03 db.delete("locations", "location NOT IN ?", new String[] {where.toString()}); Oct 05 09:29:06 wtf? Oct 05 09:29:36 where.toString() == "(\"asdf\",\"qwer\")" Oct 05 09:32:51 when I put chnage just ? to (?) in second parameter, and removes parenthesis in the where.toString(), it compiles, but does not work. Oct 05 09:36:22 Pitel_IPEX: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7418849/android-sqlite-in-clause-and-placeholders Oct 05 09:37:06 You have to use as many ? as args your passing it looks like Oct 05 10:01:27 dont you just love when there is a new support package available Oct 05 10:01:36 not that there is one now, but... Oct 05 10:01:49 maybe soon Oct 05 10:03:33 i'm trying to debug my NDK application. I have debuggable=true in the manifest but when I start ndk-gdb this is the output: http://pastebin.com/DdaYEJcy Oct 05 10:03:49 looks like there are no debug symbols to be found or something Oct 05 10:04:01 when a crash occurs in my NDK code, there is no useful information there Oct 05 10:04:58 erikwt: you should get a debug prompt. for me, it looks like gdb is only attached right after onCreate of the Activity was calles Oct 05 10:05:01 called* Oct 05 10:08:14 Anyone know of a way to detect if there is a physical menu button present? Oct 05 10:08:46 heller, I actually do get a debug prompt Oct 05 10:08:58 and I hit 'c' for continue, that works Oct 05 10:09:02 good Oct 05 10:09:07 but when a crash occurs, I dont get any useful info Oct 05 10:09:09 like this: Oct 05 10:09:25 erikwt: do you have APP_OPTIM:=debug in your Application.mk? Oct 05 10:09:47 http://pastebin.com/vS9wWsEV Oct 05 10:10:53 erikwt: what does bt tell you? Oct 05 10:11:03 erikwt: are you familiar with gdb itself? Oct 05 10:19:14 heller, I'm not too familiar with gdb, but I would expect some more information after the SIGSEGV Oct 05 10:19:38 erikwt: after a segfault, gdb presents you with yet another prompt Oct 05 10:19:51 erikwt: which allows you to perform all kinds of stuff Oct 05 10:20:13 should be simple but i'm not sure what to do with this… my app is a grid, which will change slightly in size… how can i add a blank "spacer" around the edges? Oct 05 10:20:14 erikwt: for example to display a backtrace (type bt) Oct 05 10:20:50 spacer will adjust its size to block out grid items that are off-screen Oct 05 10:21:24 erikwt: after that the last function call stack will be presented, if you compiled with debug information, you get line numbers etc. you can navigate the call stack. type in "up" to get one frame up etc. you can then introspect the variables inside that stack frame Oct 05 10:21:47 erikwt: search for a gdb howto for more information Oct 05 10:22:07 nm i think i got it Oct 05 10:33:32 heller, thanks for your help. I'll read up on gdb Oct 05 10:54:48 hi, I made an activity that sets a wallpaper. all the images have the same resolution 480x800. some of them get stretched, and some others don't. so what should I do to make the wallpaper fit to one and only one screen? Oct 05 10:55:35 like a home screen wallpaper? Oct 05 10:55:46 you have no control over that really Oct 05 11:11:05 mikedg_, but had one which is locked to one screen Oct 05 11:11:23 and is also fitting one and only one screen Oct 05 11:11:35 it does not rotate Oct 05 11:21:13 i will have to repeat my question.. cos this is made my boss mad Oct 05 11:21:17 hi, I made an activity that sets a wallpaper. all the images have the same resolution 480x800. some of them get stretched, and some others don't. so what should I do to make the wallpaper fit to one and only one screen? Oct 05 11:21:36 he just could not believe it! Oct 05 11:24:23 You're making an app that sets a wallpaper, and apparently this is important enough to warrent a mangement structure? THAT's the bit I can't believe. Oct 05 11:24:46 First thing to note is the dimensions. Is it really 480x800, or are some 800x480? Oct 05 11:25:02 Second thing to note is that your phone's device resolution is probably way larger than 480. Oct 05 11:25:28 And finally, resize artifacts show up un-equally because of how we percieve things. Oct 05 11:29:37 how can you start a new activity from another activity that's residing in a tabhost without losing the tabhost, help would be appreciated. Oct 05 12:05:00 Hi all. I have a tablet that I'm using for USB debugging under eclipse in linux, and I configured udev with the proper vendor id but it shows up on device selection as "??????" Oct 05 12:05:13 but it does show up as a device, though Oct 05 12:05:15 is it a crappy-tablet? Oct 05 12:05:20 just that I can't start usb debugging Oct 05 12:05:56 it's a nexus tablet Oct 05 12:06:18 asus Oct 05 12:06:31 then your permissions are wrong Oct 05 12:13:32 I did chmod a+r on the udev rules file Oct 05 12:13:38 still, no joy Oct 05 12:14:29 not the permissions on the udev file :) Oct 05 12:20:10 oh, where, then? Oct 05 12:22:31 for an experiment, run "adb kill-server ; sudo adb devices" and see if it works Oct 05 12:24:26 foo303: permission setting somehow never helped for any of my device, I always need to change owner to my user Oct 05 12:24:58 don't ask me why, but i have recognized that now with 4 different devices, that chmod a+x doesnt help, even though the rule is applied correctly Oct 05 12:25:58 but only at my desktop, for my laptop the suggestes udev rules in the android docu work perfectly, so no idea how it is, but you could also try appending a OWNER="username" to your rules Oct 05 12:26:07 wow, it works, Leeds Oct 05 12:26:21 I'm not sure how or why, since I restarted after my first frustration with this Oct 05 12:27:19 running as root bypasses the permissions Oct 05 12:27:38 I just set the group owner to be users Oct 05 12:27:50 and have been using it for a long while like that, on a phone Oct 05 12:27:53 so you can be lazy and just keep running as root - or figure out stuff to get it working as a user Oct 05 12:28:04 but with the tablet, yeah, I'll remember to kill the server when things like that happen Oct 05 12:29:31 Hey folks, is there anyone using Scala for Android development? When googleing, I get the impression it's a "It can be done in a way but you don't want to if you want to get your job done" thing… Oct 05 12:34:50 hi, how can i hide activity menu on android 4.0.4, i would like to have web view in total fullscreen Oct 05 12:38:45 Is there a way to pop the topmost fragment without ui change? Oct 05 12:43:37 hello guys Oct 05 12:43:51 i need a little help Oct 05 12:44:08 EvilDin: this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); should do the job. Oct 05 12:44:13 have to make clickable areas on one picture Oct 05 12:44:19 how i can do that? Oct 05 12:44:28 with surface? Oct 05 12:44:38 or with rectagles areas Oct 05 12:45:25 Hey people. Oct 05 12:45:43 demonoid_com: will if you just want clickable rectangles you could layer invisible views over your image in FrameLayout Oct 05 12:46:12 The support library v4 contains a bug that breaks notifications on Android 3.2. Somebody released a patch where he changed one byte in a .class in the JAR, but I'm scared of using this since he might have added a trojan horse. Any ideas what I could do? Oct 05 12:46:17 I'd like to ask what is the android support library used for ? will it able me to write applications that run on 2.2 but using the 4.0 API ? Oct 05 12:46:38 I heard compiling the support libraries myself might be tricky since Google uses some proprietary Android build system (Android.mk files)? Oct 05 12:46:58 How did you deal with the problem that compatibility notifications don't work on 3.2? Oct 05 12:47:08 R4md4c: to some extent, yes Oct 05 12:47:48 Leeds: Could you explain more ? please Oct 05 12:48:21 Ankhwatcher:mmm but also need areas that are not rectangles Oct 05 12:48:35 R4md4c: more than http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/support-library.html does? not really Oct 05 12:49:03 I use the support library to get something that looks like Android 4 on all devices since Android 2.1 Oct 05 12:50:56 is it possible to start a new instance of the same activity via intent? Oct 05 12:51:40 sure Oct 05 12:51:50 :s Oct 05 12:55:23 But that would make the back button behave a bit strangely. Oct 05 12:55:37 You can have the new activity replace the old one by using the single top flag. Oct 05 12:56:03 ...or would that just resume the existing one? hm... Oct 05 13:03:13 Ankhwatcher: where should i put this code: this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE) ? Oct 05 13:04:15 EvilDin: you should probably google that code to find out more about it. But it worked for me at the start of the onCreate statement of my activity. Oct 05 13:04:35 Hello I was wondering I have three (technically more) fragments, browse-> which goes into either a content_list fragment (listview) or a content_page fragment (pager adapter). Both content fragments have a button to switch viewing mode, swapping out one and replacing it with the other which are done by methods in my activity that add them to the backstack (since sometimes they will be Oct 05 13:04:35 loaded from other fragments). Thing is since I want to treat them essential as one layer on the stack, I use manager.popimmediate whenever it's being called from either content fragment (loading the other one) and then load them as described above: there is a brief moment when you can see the underlaying browse fragment during this pop/swap... I am just wondering if there is another way Oct 05 13:04:36 to achieve the same thing. Oct 05 13:06:50 *So that there is not that all too brief interlude of seeing the browse fragment Oct 05 13:07:00 Phew that was winded Oct 05 13:10:23 good day sirs and madammes; i have googled for a while now, but i get no proper info or answers to that problem Oct 05 13:10:34 i have a simple activiy with a xml layout... it contains a progressbar, which is accessed with progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar); in the onCreate()-method. strangely that progressbar is displayed, but accessing it leads to a nullpointer exception, as findViewById() returns null... WHY ???? Oct 05 13:11:12 That reminds me... my holo everywhere progress bar uses the dark theme, even though the whole activity is set to light theme. Why? Oct 05 13:11:45 keex, did you inflate the layout BEFORE you tried findViewById? Oct 05 13:12:21 UnbertKant: no... why? accessing textfields also works without inflating Oct 05 13:12:35 0,1 #fibonnacifriday Oct 05 13:12:51 How can that work without inflating? Magic? Oct 05 13:13:05 :D Oct 05 13:13:08 Is there a reason why you would want to access it before you inflated it? Oct 05 13:13:34 UnbertKant: i didn't even know one needs to inflate anything at all Oct 05 13:13:43 I get a deprecated warning for : downloadThread = (Thread) getLastNonConfigurationInstance(); Oct 05 13:13:50 My understanding is that the views aren't there if you didn't inflate the xml, so I'm surprised that you can access text fields. Oct 05 13:14:08 but the new version points to Fragment API, with setRetainInstance(boolean) Oct 05 13:14:18 UnbertKant: could you point me to a direction, something to read about inflation ? Oct 05 13:14:23 so how would that work with my Thread? Oct 05 13:15:08 First you do setContentView(R.layout.blablabla), then you do findViewById Oct 05 13:15:54 setContentView handles the layoutinflation for you, you usually don't need to deal with the explicit layout inflaters. Oct 05 13:15:56 hi Oct 05 13:16:01 hi! Oct 05 13:16:10 UnbertKant: ok, that IS the case Oct 05 13:16:31 Maybe you used the ID more than once? Oct 05 13:16:41 Maybe you defined the id with @id instead of @+id? Oct 05 13:16:57 Maybe you included the wrong R-file? Check your imports. Oct 05 13:17:39 "progressBar" is a funny id, you might want to change it to "torrentDownloadProgressBar" or something more specific. Oct 05 13:18:28 That way you notice a wrong R-file import, since android.R might contain "progressBar", but not "torrentDownloadProgressBar" (or whatever is meaningful in your case) Oct 05 13:19:05 UnbertKant: http://pastebin.com/U1ifuQur Oct 05 13:20:41 What? You don't import any R-file at all! How can that work? Oct 05 13:22:06 uberkunt, your name is offensive Oct 05 13:23:42 UnbertKant: when i try importing it, it immediately disappears . i use intellij Oct 05 13:24:27 I don't know about intellij Oct 05 13:25:40 UnbertKant: all R-ids are resolved... Oct 05 13:25:45 09:20:47 < UnbertKant> What? You don't import any R-file at all! How can that work? Oct 05 13:25:48 uh Oct 05 13:25:53 if his activity package is the same as his app package Oct 05 13:25:59 then the autogenerated R file will be in the same package Oct 05 13:26:03 thus importing is totally pointless Oct 05 13:26:14 tmyk! :> Oct 05 13:26:34 UnbertKant: all other widgets work... except for the progressbar Oct 05 13:27:20 Hm, never thought about putting the R file someplace else, it just sits in gen for me. Oct 05 13:27:27 I have two avds in with api level 10 and 15. I choose 10 when creating eclipse project using maven and it shows platform.version 2.3.3. I am getting outofmemory error on using httpurlconnection and so wanted to check by using higher platfrom.version for api level 15. how do I do that ? I tried changing it in pom.xml to 4.1.1.4 but it sill uses level 10 when it launches emulator Oct 05 13:27:34 Wild guess: change the id. Oct 05 13:28:04 how get to work scrolling in ListView inside ScrollView? Oct 05 13:29:16 ..or disable fully disable Scrolling in ListView Oct 05 13:29:28 you don't put listview inside scrollview, ever. Oct 05 13:29:47 ListView is basically a scrolling linear layout. So what exactly do you want to do? Oct 05 13:29:55 recommend some AdapterView without scrolling? Oct 05 13:30:05 That makes no sense. Oct 05 13:30:10 What do you want to do? Oct 05 13:30:46 many elemnts(and ListView) in LinearLayout inside ScrollView Oct 05 13:30:54 hi room Oct 05 13:31:04 UnbertKant: i did that. renaming the ID did not help Oct 05 13:31:10 UnbertKant: it's SUPPOSED to sit in gen. Oct 05 13:31:16 UnbertKant: gen is used as a source directory. Oct 05 13:31:21 I get outofmemoryerror when I tried reading using httpurlconnection class Oct 05 13:31:55 mms_: it doesn't really matter what your target is. You can just open an API 15 emulator and install your apk./ Oct 05 13:32:02 Not possible, either you use only a linear layout in a scroll view and fill it by code, or you use just a list view and put everything in there. Oct 05 13:32:05 mms_: I don't have experience with whatever build system running off of maven that you're using. Oct 05 13:32:06 i have a class ViewHolder {ImageView imagview; CheckBox checkbox; int id;} and want to set the checkbox to checked, when clicked on the ImageView Oct 05 13:32:19 lov: I run using eclipse Oct 05 13:32:44 mms_: create an AVD for api level 15. Oct 05 13:32:57 mms_: I strongly doubt that your OOM error relates to HttpURLConnection itself, however. Oct 05 13:33:00 or to API level 10 Oct 05 13:33:04 I strongly suspect that you are just running out of memory. Oct 05 13:33:17 use the memory analysis tools to look for leaks or excessive usage Oct 05 13:33:23 hello Oct 05 13:33:32 UnbertKant :( Oct 05 13:33:52 bingels: don't put a listview inside of a scrollview. Trust me, just don't do this. Oct 05 13:34:17 is one of the intractable problems which I do not like in Android Oct 05 13:35:25 How many items in a simple text-row listview is the cut for enabling fast scroll? Oct 05 13:36:23 collection of all the problems shows that it is not quite completed yet all Android Oct 05 13:38:42 bingels: we don't really care what you think. Oct 05 13:39:12 bingels: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6210895/listview-inside-scrollview-is-not-scrolling-on-android Oct 05 13:39:27 helllo Oct 05 13:39:44 Is there anyway to swap two fragments both being added to backstack but at the same level in the backstack?
