**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Oct 18 03:00:02 2012 Oct 18 03:05:36 JakeWharton: Or anyone else listening, I am using the ViewPagerIndicator but have a problem with theme. When I go to a white background with black text (android:Theme.Holo.Light), the text of the indicator does not change Oct 18 03:05:54 because it has its own styles Oct 18 03:09:44 is there a way to pass my style to it programmatically. I have an option in preferences that allows be to switch between a black or white theme which then happens in the mainActivity Oct 18 03:14:05 JakeWharton: I can see that I can simply make a style and pass it to the xml component, but I need it to be programmatic. Oct 18 03:19:16 is there a way to have a custom view be the CONTENTS of a dialogfragment, but still have the standard setpositivebutton/setnegativebutton stuff there? Oct 18 03:23:51 epsilonorion: no you need to merge some theme together with the abs theme for use with the vpi Oct 18 03:24:16 i.e create your own theme that has holo.light as its parent Oct 18 03:24:21 and add the vpi theming to that Oct 18 03:25:13 luxurymode: something like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9737103/no-style-viewpagerindicator-in-combination-with-sherlockactionbar Oct 18 03:25:38 epsilonorion: exactly Oct 18 03:25:50 luxurymode: got it. Working on that now to see if it works Oct 18 03:25:52 luxurymode: thanks Oct 18 03:30:35 luxurymode: and my limitation in xml hits me. Following that link, I try to include the widget for TitlePageIndicator in the style. The widget exists in the VPI library, but not in my project, so it gives me a resource not found. How do I link them Oct 18 03:31:51 you mean it says not found when you specify that as the parent? Oct 18 03:37:49 epsilonorion? Oct 18 03:38:21 @style/Widget.TitlePageIndicator Oct 18 03:38:23 sorry about the delay Oct 18 03:38:39 says the @style portion is not found Oct 18 03:39:02 it is defined in the VPI library, but I assume i have to link or copy it over. Just wasn't sure if this was correct Oct 18 03:39:28 well you have to library project dependencies, right? abs and vpi? Oct 18 03:39:43 make vpi depend on abs and then have your app depend on vpi Oct 18 03:39:49 then you should have everything Oct 18 03:40:01 vpi yes, not sure what abs is Oct 18 03:40:08 oh, actionbarsherlock Oct 18 03:40:10 actionbarsherlock Oct 18 03:40:12 no, not using abs Oct 18 03:40:15 oh Oct 18 03:40:28 then dunno why its not working Oct 18 03:40:35 try regenerating your R.java Oct 18 03:40:45 project > clean if using eclipse Oct 18 03:40:56 and force regenerate R.java in intellij Oct 18 03:41:47 oh if you're not using abs then forget this whole merging thing Oct 18 03:41:54 just define your own vpi theme Oct 18 03:42:01 which sets the appropriate attributes Oct 18 03:42:05 like text color, etc Oct 18 03:42:58 e.g. add this to theme: @style/CustomTitlePageIndicator Oct 18 03:43:06 where customtitlepageindicator is a custom theme Oct 18 03:43:36 like so: https://gist.github.com/3909749 Oct 18 03:44:04 then use this theme in the manifest Oct 18 03:44:16 in place of directly referencing the vpi theme Oct 18 03:44:28 so how long do you think an AOSp build wil take on a 2500+ Oct 18 03:44:33 2500k with 16gb of ram Oct 18 03:45:02 pclov3r: weeks Oct 18 03:45:31 lol Oct 18 03:45:33 luxurymode: trying it now. Oct 18 03:45:36 make -j8 on my core i7 takes 45min from a make clean Oct 18 03:45:39 with ccache enabled Oct 18 03:45:47 maybe 30 Oct 18 03:46:12 25 on my brand new macbook pro Oct 18 03:46:19 also i7 Oct 18 03:46:24 i was pretty shocked Oct 18 03:46:47 that's pretty impressive Oct 18 03:46:56 how much disk space Oct 18 03:46:59 do you need for cccache Oct 18 03:47:03 ccache Oct 18 03:47:12 one more Oct 18 03:47:14 try once more Oct 18 03:47:19 cccache Oct 18 03:47:21 ccache Oct 18 03:47:22 cache Oct 18 03:47:26 I haven't been in the OS building business for many years now, but it used to take us 8 hours... Oct 18 03:47:26 like a stutter lol Oct 18 03:47:52 no problems building on Debian 6 i suppose? Oct 18 03:49:09 i dislike ubuntu Oct 18 03:49:56 luxurymode: perfect, thanks for all of the help Oct 18 03:51:24 only one way to find out tho Oct 18 03:52:42 no problem epsilonorion Oct 18 04:11:31 oic, thou must calleth setview before anything else in alertdialog builder fragment, otherwise thee is screwed Oct 18 06:46:34 Guys I'm looking to show a ListFragment as a DialogFragment Oct 18 06:46:50 just put a listview in the dialogfragment Oct 18 06:47:39 lasserix: Hey, Yeah so for rest of my code I have a BaseListFragment class which basically takes care of all listing look and feel Oct 18 06:47:54 I'm doing the same but then I cant do stuff like setListshown and setemptytext Oct 18 06:48:08 there are equivalent calls I think Oct 18 06:48:37 setEmptyText has a ticket open against it Oct 18 06:48:44 problem is you can't nest fragments Oct 18 06:48:44 I'll look up setListShown Oct 18 06:49:11 *nm i guess you can Oct 18 06:50:08 Are you using a loader? Oct 18 06:50:18 yes ListFragment + Loaders Oct 18 06:50:46 that makes my life very simple, as I don't have sweat over showing hiding ProgressDialogs Oct 18 06:50:49 so lv.setEmptyView(emptyText); where emptytext is a textview defined in the xml Oct 18 06:50:58 \o Oct 18 06:51:46 oh btw how do you do that, start the progress in onloadercreate and close it onloaderfinish? Oct 18 06:52:09 yeah already doing that, and it looks ok too, setListShown is what I'm looking for Oct 18 06:53:05 yeah when I initLoader() I setListShown(false) and when onloadFinish setListshown(true) Oct 18 06:53:17 if there is no data the empty text automatically appears Oct 18 06:53:44 but for DialogFragment I'm doing that all by my own Oct 18 06:53:58 ok how about I show ListFragment inside an DialogActivity ? Oct 18 06:54:35 if you can get it to work Oct 18 06:54:50 alternatively if you can't just copy from line 279 http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.0.1_r1/android/support/v4/app/ListFragment.java Oct 18 06:56:25 or here's a better example with xml references : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10608624/list-fragment-does-not-accept-my-layout/12504097#12504097 Oct 18 06:56:27 same idea Oct 18 06:57:15 got to get back to cooking Oct 18 06:58:51 hmm.. Oct 18 07:08:39 what is a reasonable limit to the amount of stuff I should keep in a SharedPreferences file? Oct 18 07:09:29 !ops can someone unban *!*null@*unaffiliated/juest please? Oct 18 07:15:20 heh, when i search for neuro fuzzy on amazon i get all these rice cookers :P Oct 18 07:37:14 what's the best version of eclipse to use? mine right now (4.2) is insanely slow Oct 18 07:37:29 whomp: lastest? Oct 18 07:37:51 is it? i always hear about new bugs. i wouldn't assume it's the best because it's the latest Oct 18 07:38:16 lol Oct 18 07:38:36 whomp: get stable build then, Oct 18 07:38:47 whomp: you must have been working with oracle stuff :) Oct 18 07:39:01 probably your pc is not good to use eclipse Oct 18 07:39:09 haha no i hear about this all the time, and right now working with xml is insanely slow. i'm on a mac Oct 18 07:39:20 eclipse is slow Oct 18 07:39:23 i'm not sure how particular pc's are "not good to use eclipse" Oct 18 07:39:34 maybe if your pc is from the 90....s Oct 18 07:39:43 90s* Oct 18 07:39:44 except mine is from last year and eclipse is slow on it Oct 18 07:39:51 lol Oct 18 07:39:54 eclipse is so ahead of its time Oct 18 07:39:56 eclipse is just slow Oct 18 07:40:03 Like emulator Oct 18 07:40:14 i always use my phone Oct 18 07:40:49 unless you really want the eclipse gui tools, autocompletion and ADT stuff, dont use eclipse Oct 18 07:40:59 some people love those features but they just annoy me Oct 18 07:41:08 morning all Oct 18 07:41:14 is this a vim discussion again? Oct 18 07:41:17 :P Oct 18 07:41:21 i definitely need the xml previews though. Oct 18 07:41:27 it's hard to get away from that one Oct 18 07:41:37 it's becoming one :) Oct 18 07:41:46 i use emacs Oct 18 07:41:52 i would like to do 'geeky' apk editing right on phone Oct 18 07:42:10 and you know the layout mechanisms well enough to just imagine them on the phone? Oct 18 07:42:12 hmm, probably eclipse is like NetBeans, Slow and Hogging Oct 18 07:42:17 and GUI Oct 18 07:42:36 version control your eclipse Oct 18 07:42:37 if you cant imagine what your gui willl look like without previews you have a problem Oct 18 07:42:49 so you can revert if an update focks it up Oct 18 07:43:20 I'm deleting items from a ListView via a CAB action, but the cab doesn't get the memo that the items are gone from the listview - how do I go about fixing this in a proper manner? Oct 18 07:43:50 sometimes you just gotta tweak it by 2dp. and i can't say that i can't imagine it perfectly, but android throws a lot of curveballs. like image backgrounds for buttons scale to fill the whole button, but the image for an imageview does not Oct 18 07:43:56 hmmm, one could probably write something that refreshes an "xml" feed the whole time Oct 18 07:43:59 inflate(XmlPullParser parser, ViewGroup root) Oct 18 07:44:41 have your xml on a local http server and refresh the gui every few seconds or something Oct 18 07:44:44 yeah, if you could somehow stream the state of your document to the phone Oct 18 07:44:59 that's an interesting thought actually Oct 18 07:45:37 sounds like a sideproject for i-don't-have-enough-work-already-man Oct 18 07:45:42 :) Oct 18 07:45:55 hahaha Oct 18 07:45:58 would probably be difficult to do. or people would do it already Oct 18 07:46:03 i wrote AI for snake last night, that was fun. Oct 18 07:46:04 goood idea though Oct 18 07:46:04 nah not really Oct 18 07:46:20 nice DysonReturns , tried it yet? Oct 18 07:46:24 is good? Oct 18 07:46:33 from that book Beginning Android Game Programming Oct 18 07:46:35 fuck it, i'ma make one Oct 18 07:46:37 today i just need to master sqlite and cursoradapter Oct 18 07:46:38 the source is online somewhere Oct 18 07:46:50 i have that book too. dyson. its good Oct 18 07:46:55 then just added ai Oct 18 07:47:02 Snake AI is a new snake vs player or AI play? Oct 18 07:47:04 tech1: yeah, i'm trying to see if openGL is for me Oct 18 07:47:11 like a demo Oct 18 07:47:30 Juest: its just you playing snake and another snake does seemingly random things, gets in your way and eats your stains Oct 18 07:47:55 because snake wasnt hard enough..... Oct 18 07:47:56 lol Oct 18 07:47:58 lol Oct 18 07:48:13 anyhoo, its device charge day ontop of work. chat later. Oct 18 07:49:15 ah DysonReturns, so it's like a competition Oct 18 07:50:01 i am trying to connect an pidion bluebird bip 6000 to my computer so i can connect with ddms, but it says debugging connected in the notification bar on the phone when i plug it in but it does not show up on ddms for monitoring Oct 18 07:50:03 any suggestions? Oct 18 07:50:41 i'm thinking, make a script that creates a layout with a button for each layout in the project and an activity that the button points to Oct 18 07:50:46 did you install driver asfdd? Oct 18 07:51:06 then, in the activity, have it run GETs every 5 seconds to the ftp server where i'm working in vim Oct 18 07:51:14 or if on linux add the manufacturer code to something like /etc/udev/android-rules (i forgot the exact file) Oct 18 07:51:41 whomp what is the goal of this? Oct 18 07:51:50 realtime view of my layout Oct 18 07:52:23 it should be but i can't find it in the sdk manager Oct 18 07:52:25 hmmmm. if you think it will work try it Oct 18 07:52:26 so maybe thats the problem Oct 18 07:52:32 whats the package called? Driver package? Oct 18 07:52:41 yeah it says installed Oct 18 07:52:47 we'll see :) Oct 18 07:52:50 i think only goolge devices have drivers in the sdk Oct 18 07:52:57 look at your devic manual Oct 18 07:53:26 to test, go to terminal and type "adb devices" Oct 18 07:53:34 it should show up Oct 18 07:53:49 asfdd: probably you want your phone's driver, not SDK driver, usually you install it by downloading from your brand webpage, or downloading phone software Oct 18 07:54:16 it didn't come with one in the box atleast =( its prettymuch a windows phone they installed android on, it has a windows physcial keyboard etc Oct 18 07:54:24 i'll try searching a bit Oct 18 07:54:26 asfdd: the USB driver in SDK is for Google phones and such, Oct 18 07:54:32 well, so it's worse Oct 18 07:54:34 ty Oct 18 07:55:43 hmm the only issue is pulling drawables Oct 18 08:04:38 <_yakubmobiledev> Hello every one Oct 18 08:05:10 I have fragments navigating as home->browse->contentlistmode OR contentpagemode, where the user can switch between page and list mode. However to do that I have to pop up the stack the first content fragment loaded (ie, if going from browse->content list and then switching to page, list must be popped off so going back from page will go to browse) which cause the browse fragment underneath Oct 18 08:05:10 to briefly be shown. This also call's browse's onPause which screws up some saved state; so my question if you can follow all this is, is there anyway to to swap two fragments (the list and page), or alternatively to remove a fragment from the backstack without a corresponding UI change? Oct 18 08:05:20 <_yakubmobiledev> Is there any way to know the ip addresses of the peers connected to my wifi router from the android device Oct 18 08:06:27 <_yakubmobiledev> Lets say there are 10 devices connected to the wifi router or hotspot i need those 10 ip address to comunicate with them from android device and i am using androdi 2.3 Oct 18 08:06:47 _yakubmobiledev: step 1) root your phone I guess Oct 18 08:07:10 cusom rom do not have enough permissions Oct 18 08:07:33 <_yakubmobiledev> I need to do it programatically Oct 18 08:07:34 this is my opinion which is highly likely to be erroneous Oct 18 08:07:38 How can I make the CAB hide when I select an action button? Returning true on onActionItemClicked isn't doing it Oct 18 08:07:50 <_yakubmobiledev> i need it wothout rooting Oct 18 08:09:12 <_yakubmobiledev> will wifidirect feature in android 4.0 and up wil do the same Oct 18 08:09:12 <_yakubmobiledev> ? Oct 18 08:10:11 Hey everyone Oct 18 08:12:06 <_yakubmobiledev> please help me Oct 18 08:12:29 <_yakubmobiledev> is it possible to get the peers list Oct 18 08:12:30 <_yakubmobiledev> ? Oct 18 08:12:42 I'm getting "getCount() of type […] must override a superclass method" in https://gist.github.com/3910395 , it should override int getCount() from android.widget.Adapter, shouldn't it? Oct 18 08:13:07 I have a question about appengine datastore, I want to create a key from a string (user name for example), should I save the key created by the key generator on the client's application? or does key generator will create the same key every time I will enter the same string? Oct 18 08:13:34 _yakubmobiledev: you can take sample from Fing (a network discovery app) Oct 18 08:16:18 oh nvm, ADT was set to java 1.5 compliance even if general pref was to use Java SE 6 Oct 18 08:19:58 could some1 help me with this key generator thing? Oct 18 08:24:27 sasson: what's the prob? every dev haves his own dev key for his apks Oct 18 08:27:00 Juest, it's about entity key generator in the datastore (appengine), I want to know it every time that I use KeyFactory.createKey("User", userPhoneNumber) I will get the same key? Oct 18 08:27:13 ah Oct 18 08:27:26 sasson: probably not, appengine!? Oct 18 08:27:39 Worked it out - you're supposed to use mode.finish(); Oct 18 08:36:13 hi. how can I add comments to the manifest in the xml? Oct 18 08:36:34 of course Oct 18 08:36:36 its a xml Oct 18 08:36:40 or anyways .. whatever the xml i need to add comments Oct 18 08:36:51 <-- --> i think Oct 18 08:36:58 Oct 18 08:38:00 ixc, sorry? Oct 18 08:38:16 ok.. like html? isn't? Oct 18 08:38:29 like xhtml (because it is also xml) Oct 18 08:38:35 i guessed it would be so Oct 18 09:07:36 heya, i have much trouble getting signed application to install Oct 18 09:07:53 i get "Application not installed" and adb logcat shows error 103 Oct 18 09:08:16 i have 1) removed the older debug signed app 2) switched few jdk versions Oct 18 09:09:20 dsirijus: how are you installing it? Oct 18 09:09:32 just downloading from dropbox and clicking on it Oct 18 09:09:41 (yes, i have enabled non-market apps) Oct 18 09:10:24 how would jdk affect that? Oct 18 09:10:54 anddam, supposedly, that was solution for some folks "from the internet" Oct 18 09:11:07 dsirijus: I suggest to paste(bin) the actual error Oct 18 09:11:48 sure, will replicate Oct 18 09:12:34 http://pastie.org/5077749 Oct 18 09:12:43 that's probably a little more than needed Oct 18 09:13:45 I'm trying to record audio with OpenSL ES. In the ndk example recording is made in BufferQueue. To start recording Enqueue for queue interface is called. What should be done for URI as DataLocator (I want to write directly in file) Oct 18 09:14:10 dsirijus: uncomfortable line-breaking Oct 18 09:14:29 yeh, was about to apologize for that Oct 18 09:14:31 :) Oct 18 09:16:03 dsirijus: nothing a replace cannot fix Oct 18 09:16:07 Where's the best place to save first visible position? Oct 18 09:16:14 anddam, replace? Oct 18 09:16:55 Where's the best place to save the first visible position of a listview? On the user clicking a row (doing so launches new fragment), on pause or bind view? Oct 18 09:17:21 dsirijus: "Package com.thefact.crecermolapp has no certificates atentry " did you search the actual error? Oct 18 09:18:59 anddam, atentry? Oct 18 09:19:31 (i'm publishing this from unity) Oct 18 09:20:43 I don't think it's important the entry that is missing certificate but rather the fixed part of the error string Oct 18 09:21:02 I don't have clue about the "publishing from unity" thing Oct 18 09:22:08 hm, well, i've specified everything there :/ Oct 18 09:22:38 dsirijus: I mean I don't know what "I'm publishing from unity" means Oct 18 09:22:52 wth, why you are using Unity? Oct 18 09:22:58 from what I can read there's some issue with the apk signing Oct 18 09:23:06 oh Unity as in the GNOME interface? Oct 18 09:23:09 http://unity3d.com (for who don't know what is) Oct 18 09:23:25 nope, Oct 18 09:24:25 ah unity engine Oct 18 09:24:37 Game developing Oct 18 09:25:41 yeh, unity3d, sorry for the ambigousness Oct 18 09:27:18 dsirijus: I see a reference to JDK 7 for this issue, you said to have tried different JDKs, right? Oct 18 09:27:51 i've tried few that have solved the issue for some, 6.16, 6.24 Oct 18 09:27:58 i guess i'd try few more or something Oct 18 09:28:31 hey, eclipse shows me there's an error in my project but not in which file and will not compile. what can i do? Oct 18 09:28:37 http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=830 rename makes the apk install Oct 18 09:28:49 viran: paste a screenshot? Oct 18 09:29:21 of what? Oct 18 09:29:25 dsirijus: check comment 12 on that issue, it's even funnier Oct 18 09:30:26 ahahaha Oct 18 09:30:28 viran: of an actual cat chasing the computer mouse Oct 18 09:30:42 still not installing for me though, changing the .apk filename Oct 18 09:31:08 there was nothing to take a picture of Oct 18 09:31:15 it was just eclipse being an asshole Oct 18 09:31:19 clean build solved it Oct 18 09:31:33 dsirijus: I guess that when talking about filename the reporter was referring to the problematic file not the apk Oct 18 09:32:20 dsirijus: you're using debug key, right? Oct 18 09:32:32 can you build and sign by hand? Oct 18 09:33:26 anddam, well, i can build with debug key, and it runs fine with that, also i can specify keystore, key and lvl things in the interface for proper release (that doesn't work) Oct 18 09:34:14 i'm just guessing it is debug key, i just click and run it without certs Oct 18 09:36:21 Anyone know good references for really obfuscating a key well in code? Oct 18 09:36:32 anddam, one solution suggest that i need to create a keystore file with jdk6, not jdk7 (i'm not doing this, my client is) Oct 18 09:39:26 Hi Oct 18 09:41:14 I see an exception "TransactionTooLargeException", thrown when ApplicationThreadProxy.scheduleLaunchActivity -> BinderProxy.transact Oct 18 09:42:45 Did the ApplicationThreadProxy send a large data so that the exception was thrown?

Oct 18 10:13:09 <_yakubmobiledev> Thast a fantastic app Oct 18 10:13:30 lol Oct 18 10:13:50 wei2912: lol, without cloak or what? you must be ident: you get +q otherwise Oct 18 10:13:56 <_yakubmobiledev> I need some clarification please let me know is it right or wrong Oct 18 10:14:13 Juest, ah well it's settled anyway :) Oct 18 10:14:18 HDroid, ^^ :) Oct 18 10:14:22 lol Oct 18 10:15:09 <_yakubmobiledev> When i connect to a wifi network i will be assigned to an ip if i scan the starting from 0 to 255 i can get the connected devices Oct 18 10:15:14 <_yakubmobiledev> am i correct Oct 18 10:15:34 _yakubmobiledev: Yes.... with Fing Oct 18 10:16:23 <_yakubmobiledev> is the same concept used in Fing Oct 18 10:16:27 _yakubmobiledev: nope Oct 18 10:16:38 _yakubmobiledev: you need to scan your netmask area Oct 18 10:16:57 <_yakubmobiledev> How they are identifying the ips with device names Oct 18 10:17:06 then you can get devices that answer to pings from your local net Oct 18 10:17:25 <_yakubmobiledev> netmask area means? Oct 18 10:17:33 <_yakubmobiledev> actually i am new to this Oct 18 10:17:36 _yakubmobiledev: DHCP allows a client to give a specific hostname to a server - the server can also respond with "authoritative" hostname and domain to use Oct 18 10:17:48 <_yakubmobiledev> How can i do that? from my devic Oct 18 10:18:00 _yakubmobiledev: netmask tells which part of the IP address is "network address", and which part is for individual hosts Oct 18 10:18:33 <_yakubmobiledev> Thanks p_l Oct 18 10:18:56 <_yakubmobiledev> is there any resource so that i will know hot to implement Oct 18 10:19:26 _yakubmobiledev: for 192.168.0.0/24 it means that 192.168.0 is the network part (first 24 bits) and the last 8bits are intra-network addresses Oct 18 10:19:34 <_yakubmobiledev> How can i do a netmask programatically from my app Oct 18 10:19:36 _yakubmobiledev: get yourself a good book about TCP/IP Oct 18 10:19:51 and you can get netmask from Android APIs, iirc Oct 18 10:22:13 anddam, just a note - creating keystore file with jdk6 and doing it with the same jdk worked Oct 18 10:22:13 <_yakubmobiledev> Thank you very much p_l Oct 18 10:22:56 _yakubmobiledev: go wikipedia netmask Oct 18 10:23:41 Hi everyone, please i can post you errors from log cat, my app crashes when i want to openn activity, it have many things in it, yesterday i was working 8 hours so theres much to look, and iam lost in the error log, can someone figure out for me whats wrong from LogCat log ? Oct 18 10:23:57 <_yakubmobiledev> Juest: Thank you looking for it... Oct 18 10:24:00 _yakubmobiledev: if you're interested in proper networking, find a copy of TCP/IP Illustrated. And some newer references, maybe, for things like classless netmasks Oct 18 10:24:10 hi guys Oct 18 10:24:13 the thing is, it is working correctly in Android virtual device, but when debbuging on phone it crashes Oct 18 10:24:21 _yakubmobiledev: but unless you get heavy into that, it's enough to raid a local university's library Oct 18 10:24:56 DOSP: probably because OS? Pastebin the logcat Oct 18 10:25:07 okay wait thanks Oct 18 10:25:12 <_yakubmobiledev> p_l :I will do my level best to learn as much as i can Oct 18 10:25:48 DOSP: does the platform you choosen differs from your phone? does it lack features? hardware features Oct 18 10:26:04 _yakubmobiledev: I suspect that if you seriously learn IP, you'll be a level higher from typical programmer writing network stuff ;) Oct 18 10:27:13 I used "tcp/ip illustrated" books to learn a bit for my google interview. Let's say that networking wasn't what I failed on ;) Oct 18 10:27:21 well iam debugging it always with various phones, and it workes, but yesterday i was just messing around ViewSwitcher so it is more as a code error but in android virutal device everything works great, just the debug on real phone, so i dont know what to think, wait for pastebin Oct 18 10:27:27 <_yakubmobiledev> Thank you so much for your suggestion p_l I will be vey thanksful to you guys p_l and Juest Oct 18 10:27:28 p_l, did you suceed? :D Oct 18 10:27:59 wei2912: no, I missed the target a bit in programming questions, and since I applied for SRE/SWE, I failed :) Oct 18 10:28:13 p_l, i'm a newcomer so i don't really know who is in google and who isn't Oct 18 10:28:17 applying again next year Oct 18 10:28:17 ah... :( Oct 18 10:28:22 gd luck :) Oct 18 10:28:40 wei2912: romainguy, ctate, those I remember from Google. Oct 18 10:29:06 how to deal with memory if i'm doing an infinite scroll? Oct 18 10:29:07 http://pastebin.com/pxgfA75a Oct 18 10:29:08 p_l, i wonder how work is like there :D Oct 18 10:29:10 it goes out of memory. Oct 18 10:29:15 wei2912: morrildl too. basically, if /whois shows google net, it's someone from google ;) Oct 18 10:29:53 then your network debugging issues turn from "it doesn't seem to connect" to "in the wireshark dump the TCP SYN got answered by a TCP RST which means that the firewall is open but the server was not listening" Oct 18 10:30:04 hm but i see the Error inflating class CalendarView but dont know whats wrong with that :/ Oct 18 10:30:08 SuD: :D Oct 18 10:30:39 and yes, you can use "tcpdump" in a rooted phone Oct 18 10:30:41 SuD: or "there's spurious RST sent by your side, check please"? :) Oct 18 10:31:00 tcpdump into file, then load in wireshark for analysis :3 Oct 18 10:31:46 * p_l hopes not to repeat "bring down the ISP" episode with his phone, though. broken home router was enough Oct 18 10:36:52 p_l, just wondering, wht questions did they ask you? Oct 18 10:38:32 wei2912: things like "describe what happens in OS when you do ", "describe sequence of calls done by TCP server with BSD sockets", "how would you solve on the server without rebooting", "what does that code do", things like that Oct 18 10:39:00 p_l, lol Oct 18 10:39:07 p_l, any weird questions? Oct 18 10:39:08 wei2912: most importantly, each question starts simple then you get extra conditions Oct 18 10:39:33 p_l, ah thanks Oct 18 10:39:34 wei2912: if you mean brain-teasers, no, that's 80s/90s microsoft and early google, no longer true ;) Oct 18 10:39:39 phew Oct 18 10:40:39 it was fun, though, even if I was tired with last interview (5 in a row for onsite) which probably lead to failing Oct 18 10:41:30 p_l, i might give it a try when i graduate... Oct 18 10:41:38 but sounds pretty hard :D Oct 18 10:41:50 I applied before graduating, btw Oct 18 10:42:02 im not even in university Oct 18 10:42:10 Hi, does anyone know how to listen to NFC enabled/disabled? Have an intentfilter on NfcAdapter.ACTION_ADAPTER_STATE_CHANGED, but I do not get any broadcast =( Oct 18 10:42:24 p_l, does having open source projects help? Oct 18 10:42:42 wei2912: yes, at least in getting through initial selection Oct 18 10:42:48 phew Oct 18 10:42:56 (it can also net you direct invitation, which bypasses initial selection) Oct 18 10:43:49 p_l, thanks for telling me all this :) Oct 18 10:43:59 i still hv many years before tht Oct 18 10:46:52 until then, you can always apply as a storm trooper Oct 18 10:47:12 hahaha Oct 18 10:47:32 or have guts and determination and push through :P Oct 18 10:47:53 right now, guess i'll focus on my projects Oct 18 10:47:58 i read somewhere about android being run on some military equipment Oct 18 10:47:59 * p_l still lols at how his first brush with google recruitment happened in high school Oct 18 10:48:07 some device. maybe a map thing Oct 18 10:48:13 Hmmmm... I find it weird that there is less overhead in constantly reading an image from the filesystem rather than reading it as a blob from the database. Oct 18 10:48:25 tech1: the us military has been evaluating android phones for a while Oct 18 10:48:32 just for general use Oct 18 10:48:32 tech1: there are some tries for milspec, secured fork of android for use as PDAs in military and diplomacy Oct 18 10:48:47 tech1: modern military has lots of paperwork Oct 18 10:49:04 is there any chance of approaching them to sell ideas? Oct 18 10:49:07 p_l: I got pinged based on Usenet posts. Oct 18 10:49:14 Either for general use, or a heavily modified version stripped of all the pesky "anonymouse statistics" upload to Google Oct 18 10:49:18 i bet they would pay a lot :) Oct 18 10:49:35 p_l: wish I'd been in a position to accept Oct 18 10:49:56 but then i wouldnt want a bug in my app getting people killed Oct 18 10:50:00 SpeedEvil: same on first try Oct 18 10:50:03 that would be sad Oct 18 10:50:19 SpeedEvil: the later 3 were all related to recommendation from googler Oct 18 10:50:30 tech1: then be wary about making navigation apps Oct 18 10:50:46 I was working for RIM for a short while as a community manager, and I recall everyone going on about how BBs are so secure, that even Obama uses one. If the military starts using droids... heh Oct 18 10:50:46 p_l: do you use ghostery for FF ? Oct 18 10:50:47 yeh Oct 18 10:50:51 Irony abound Oct 18 10:51:41 'I see you were searching for get cursor attributes, no results were found, but wanna job? Oct 18 10:51:49 g00s: nope Oct 18 10:52:16 Tee_Pee: Yes, BBs are used in many places by diplomats and such. But they are also lowest-level stuff Oct 18 10:52:45 and frankly speaking, they aren't so secure and their crypto isn't that good till recently Oct 18 10:54:25 if I flush() a FOS into a file that already exists, will it be overwritten? Oct 18 10:54:44 p_l, finally any languages they test your knowledge on? Oct 18 10:55:38 I have multiple activities sending intent to the main activity,how can i find out from which class the intent has been received in the main activity? Oct 18 10:56:13 Look at intent.putExtra Oct 18 10:56:45 Tee_Pee: ok Oct 18 10:56:49 Tee_Pee: Thanks Oct 18 10:56:59 does it send the calling class as a parameter Oct 18 10:57:19 wei2912: know C and Java. You don't have to be a whiz at them, but at least for C you need to know how it interacts at low level Oct 18 10:59:13 you can do something like Intent intent = newIntent(this, MainActivity.class); intent.putExtra("calling_class", this.getClass().toString()); in your MainAcitivity's onCreate() you'll have String class=getIntent().getStringExtra("calling_class"); Oct 18 11:00:43 wei2912: I actually happened to be talked to by two former lispers, so I had used Lisp in one of the phone interviews :P Oct 18 11:00:58 p_l, wow Oct 18 11:01:03 just happens java is my favorite language Oct 18 11:01:41 p_l, on the topic of such does python rate up there at all? Oct 18 11:01:59 lasserix: I suspect so, but they do ask which language you prefer your interviews use Oct 18 11:02:04 what about go? Oct 18 11:02:14
