Jun 28 04:51:44 yeah, that would have been a nice thing about going to I/O … i think you could talk to expers there if you had some persistent / nagging questions & troubles Jun 28 04:51:55 or code review. sometimes i feel like i'm not doing the right thing Jun 28 05:06:35 dang: so I'll get to close the bug with no code commit Jun 28 05:08:02 hi Jun 28 05:08:24 can I use adb as a linux system like making directories,creating files,changing permissions etc? Jun 28 05:08:31 j #java Jun 28 05:08:40 what I need to do to achieve this any tutorial? Jun 28 05:11:38 adb is just a connection bridge to a device Jun 28 05:15:50 JakeWharton, then how can I change the permisson of sdcard folder to move some files into it Jun 28 05:15:58 adb shell Jun 28 05:16:13 dumps you into an interactive shell which is running on the actual device Jun 28 05:16:27 JakeWharton, yes and after that? Jun 28 05:16:40 su root? will give me access to write? Jun 28 05:19:09 there are a lot of awesome guides online Jun 28 05:30:07 looks like some notable designers have good things to say about Material http://venturebeat.com/2014/06/27/top-designers-react-to-googles-new-material-design-language/ Jun 28 05:32:00 UI design is not coding Jun 28 05:32:28 and I suck at it Jun 28 05:34:53 yeah, if all i have is the javadoc for an android UI thing i'm lost Jun 28 06:23:39 hi all Jun 28 07:27:01 In the google IO 2014 app, the grid is a special view (maybe from the material design) or just frameLayout with imageview and textviews? Jun 28 07:36:09 I dont know whats happeneing to the package creation Jun 28 07:36:31 the source folder does not contain anything Jun 28 07:36:43 I created a new android application project Jun 28 07:37:10 And the src folder does not have the dropdown attached Jun 28 08:15:24 yoavst: it's probably a RecycleView Jun 28 08:19:03 hello does anyone had problems with gradle version after upgrade? Jun 28 08:19:07 I have upgraded ADT and SDK Jun 28 08:19:30 it proposing me to upgrade gradle to version 1.10 Jun 28 08:19:39 And now I am not able to create a new android application project because the src folder does not contain any Mainactivity ie no dropdown Jun 28 08:20:01 but all your previous are still running? Jun 28 08:23:48 mene, yes Jun 28 08:24:03 all previous are working fine Jun 28 08:29:51 mene, I think the ADT is not installed properly Jun 28 08:30:17 because when I create a new workspace with the new ADT it is totally different Jun 28 08:30:38 I dont find the SDK Manger and Android virtual device menu Jun 28 08:31:20 sorry it was because I was in resource perspective Jun 28 08:31:46 Everything is fine still I dont see anything under src Jun 28 08:33:52 I see both the layout folder and src folder are empty Jun 28 08:38:44 mene, I got something Jun 28 08:39:00 Blank Activity does not work as in previous eclipse Jun 28 08:39:20 except that other activity time are working like empty activity and many more are included this time Jun 28 08:39:26 time/type Jun 28 09:05:59 Still want to get Robolectric to work with Scalatest. I could spend an entire day today but I don’t know where to start. Jun 28 09:38:58 I finally got fed up with not being able to import my desktop firefox bookmarks onto my android devices (I don't like sync) Jun 28 09:39:13 so I'm working on an app to read .json files... Jun 28 09:40:01 is there a kind of listview that will let me have a tree view structure, or cascading menus like firefox's bookmark's menu? Jun 28 09:40:21 (my plan is to run this app, pick the bookmark I want, and it'll open firefox and take me to the bookmark) Jun 28 09:41:22 oh well :( Jun 28 09:44:19 I guess what I need to do is show the top level, and when a folder is clicked on, show that level, until I select an individual url Jun 28 09:47:12 okay so expandable listview is what I want. Jun 28 09:52:08 Hello Jun 28 10:02:32 AnAnt, hi Jun 28 10:03:25 I wrote an app, but it sometimes causes a runaway process, how can I debug that ? Jun 28 10:03:54 the app contains a thread which monitors a connection Jun 28 10:04:22 the runaway usually happens when phone is disconnected from internet Jun 28 10:04:43 but it is does not happen consistently Jun 28 10:15:48 Anyone else experience that the activity-transition example from the l-preview sometimes does not animate the image? Jun 28 10:20:44 has anyone experience with his app being repackaged by someone else and offered on Google Play? Jun 28 10:34:23 morning Jun 28 10:40:28 EPG, no, not yet. that must suck. Jun 28 10:42:51 havchr, yeah, well, at least Google took it already down. But there exist enough other websites which still pirate it anyway :/ Jun 28 10:43:15 is it a game or an app? Jun 28 10:43:42 app Jun 28 10:44:48 I'll ask google if they can give me some info about this (e.g., number of downloads etc.) Jun 28 10:45:50 but since their information politics is rather restricted and I don't have much hope that they'd tell me anything (they didn't inform me about this illegal copy anyway) I hoped that maybe someone else already had similar experience Jun 28 10:46:02 EPG: what app is it? Jun 28 10:46:17 RepetiTouch Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cygery.repetitouch.pro) Jun 28 10:47:56 looks like a practical app for a lot of things Jun 28 10:48:52 do you know how they managed to clone the app? I know nothing about how easy/hard it is to clone apk's if they live in google play. Jun 28 10:49:52 not in detail, I only got a report from a user which indicated a different package name and found a link to a matching app page on Google Play on another site Jun 28 10:50:08 but I think renaming the package name and resigning the apk can be done in a few seconds Jun 28 10:58:28 EPG: can't you do an update adding security to the app? Jun 28 10:58:53 you can check the app package name when the app starts, for example Jun 28 11:00:26 gdrc, sure, there are many things which could be done. But once it's cracked (again) it's cracked :( Jun 28 11:01:34 yes, I meant for the future updates Jun 28 11:02:31 yes, that's what I thought Jun 28 11:03:29 sorry for that, that should frustrating Jun 28 11:04:11 yeah. Pirating is one thing. But the amount of users who try to get support for a pirated copy is even worse Jun 28 11:04:42 lol Jun 28 11:37:42 anyone planning to get ADT-1? (the android tv devkit) Jun 28 11:38:10 p_l, u mean the latest ADT 23 Jun 28 11:38:13 API 23 Jun 28 11:38:22 SDK tools API 23? Jun 28 11:38:35 niru: no, I mean a physical kit that contains actual tv-attached device :) Jun 28 11:38:46 :( ok Jun 28 11:39:18 http://developer.android.com/preview/tv/adt-1/index.html Jun 28 11:57:57 hey guys i made another xml action under res/menu/ filename.xml Jun 28 11:58:12 i want to add it to the bar, when i added the code it added the originall text i wanted beside the three dots going horizontally Jun 28 11:58:17 but i cannot figure out how to make it show on the main page Jun 28 12:01:17 p_l: how can we get one? Jun 28 12:02:31 there's a page somewhere in the android tv preview with a form to fill in Jun 28 12:03:06 oh ok Jun 28 12:03:14 https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/contact/adt_request Jun 28 12:11:32 hey guys this is my code for a different xml file in the menu folder my goal is to add this into the main screen along siode with the three ... icon Jun 28 12:11:32 http://pastebin.com/9iwfmezy Jun 28 12:11:49 how can i go about doing this at the moment, i set up another menu / action bar, but i cannot view it along side wit hthe three dots. Jun 28 12:40:11 hi, i am trying to run android in a chroot on my non-android linux smartphone (nokia n9), we have a tool called apkenv which is basically a modified bionic linker which allows us to run some android apps but not all of them because the java parts need to be rewritten and currently there are maybe ~10 apps supported, what is important is that apkenv allows us to intercept function calls. i am currently trying to run surfaceflinger through apkenv which wor Jun 28 12:40:11 ks but now i want to get surfaceflinger to render into an X11 window, i tried to intercept eglGetDisplay (the actual driver call not the higher android egl layer) and pass our X11 connection to it and i also intercepted eglCreateWindowSurface and passed our X11 window handle to it but all i get is a black screen, can you maybe help me out a little? Jun 28 12:53:49 krnlyng: you need to write new surface flinger driver Jun 28 12:54:22 I'd generally suggest different approach than apkenv apparently does Jun 28 12:54:49 create a container, and make new "port" of android with drivers that interact with host OS Jun 28 12:55:36 pfn: Are you here? Jun 28 13:02:16 Hi. I'm trying to record some video in an activity. I've tried to initialize the Camera and MediaRecorder in the activity's onCreate(): http://pastebin.com/UpTZbvTz, however, the camera seems to be crashing: http://pastebin.com/RfsLa426. I've run out of ideas, but I guess I'm doing something in the wrong order/way? Jun 28 13:02:51 What seems weird is how "Contentview set" is printed again after the video settings log message is printed, even though it shouldn't Jun 28 13:23:55 ehh, why there's no glass emulator :( Jun 28 13:31:47 hey everyone! can anyone help me with an RUU problem? Jun 28 13:32:11 #android-root sounds more like it Jun 28 13:32:24 thanks :) Jun 28 13:33:41 Hi! Jun 28 13:35:33 How can I check whether my App is signed correctly to use a Google API? Jun 28 13:36:57 I'm trying to create my own style for a ProgressDialog with Horizontal progressBar. I've created this custom shape.xml ( http://pastebin.com/EcmLmfNX ), and here is the result: https://www.dropbox.com/s/eiguy1ib2d0hqhk/Captura%20de%20pantalla%202014-06-28%2015.36.50.png . I want it to be as thinner as default android 4.x ( http://goo.gl/CmhocP Jun 28 13:37:02 sorry Jun 28 13:37:52 Basically, I just want to change the default progressbar color, nothing else Jun 28 13:39:49 Hey guys can you i am about to start my first project with Fragments (probably will use some stuff from Android L too) this is how i would usualy have activities http://oi57.tinypic.com/fvxlow.jpg can you give me some suggestions how much activites would you use or fragments? Jun 28 13:42:06 Sepho, android:background Jun 28 13:42:33 ArcaneWater: use activities as entry points and only if you really need Jun 28 13:43:50 anyone had luck clipping with a path with the outline-class ? (ref the L-preview sample project view/clipping) Jun 28 13:44:18 gdrc i was using activites all the time, but now as development goes on i want to test fragments for the first time ^^ Jun 28 13:44:21 Hello. Can anyone perhaps tell me how should i properly split my program to smaller parts depending on what action each part does? I was doing it with packages like com.app.database, com.app.search but i'm starting to think this is wrong Jun 28 13:45:21 How do I get the signature of my apk? Jun 28 13:46:08 skulltower, that does not seem horribly wrong. The best way to be sure is to let someone else find their way around the code. If they can find things easily, then it's all good. Jun 28 13:46:28 skulltower: I agree with havchr , that's not wrong Jun 28 13:46:42 shmooz: I explaned there in detail: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24467444/change-progressbar-color-in-progressdialog Jun 28 13:47:00 marrrk: having the keystore file Jun 28 13:47:21 https://github.com/ianhanniballake/GlassPowerLevel <--- the obvious Glass App Jun 28 13:47:24 gdrc, havchr is there any way i get my activity from lets say package com.app.search in my manifest? Jun 28 13:47:32 it doesn't recognise the name Jun 28 13:47:52 I’m just confused as to why I can’t get calendar information through the Google API although I have added my key to that developer console. Jun 28 13:48:16 ahh... is name=".search.SearchActivity" correct way to do that? Jun 28 13:48:29 oh yes Jun 28 13:48:36 skulltower, it should not be a problem. just write the full name. drop the . in front if you want to specify an absolute name Jun 28 13:48:55 if i write just .SearchActivity it doesn't find it Jun 28 13:49:15 skulltower, or .search.SearchActivity if your package name is com.app Jun 28 13:49:52 Aha, so I need to add the key to the manifest. Jun 28 13:51:00 havchr, thanks i got it working :) Jun 28 13:51:02 how is this supposed to help anyone: „Add the key to your application by adding an element to your application's AndroidManifest.xml file.“ Yeah, great where and what’s the tag? Jun 28 13:51:05 Hey guys. Im in germany and cant seem to get the android wear app from the play store here. Does anyone have the apk or know where i can get it? Jun 28 13:52:00 goneeuro: you need to either way (till circa 7th july) or join preview group for Wear, Google Search and Google Play Service Jun 28 13:52:03 *Services Jun 28 13:52:25 goneeuro: http://t.co/MnJo4MkpFy Jun 28 13:54:44 This is weird, the L-preview outline clipping seems to only work with a rounded rect. Jun 28 13:55:31 p_l: Thanks. signed up as a tester. Jun 28 13:57:15 goneeuro: then follow the links to the play store to install wear app and upgrade google search, wear app will ask to update Google Play Services on start Jun 28 13:57:36 ok. thanks. Jun 28 13:57:46 I got it working with emulator Jun 28 13:58:04 a total newb question. i have a ViewPager that has an input field in it, when i swipe to the sides the keyboard minimizes. that takes time (keyboard minimizing), i want the keyboard to be swiped away with the contents of the view. is it possible? Jun 28 13:58:05 (wear emulator, that is) Jun 28 13:58:07 Thats what im trying to do too. Jun 28 13:59:33 goneeuro: then after getting wear app, start the emulator, connect your android with wear app to the computer running emulator, and do `adb forward -s forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601`, launch wear app and from the gear icon in top-right select "connect to emulator" Jun 28 14:01:23 p_l: are you playing with wear? :-) Jun 28 14:01:54 gdrc: on emulator so far Jun 28 14:10:31 adb devices displays my device, whereas fastboot devices does not Jun 28 14:10:43 according to the internet it is a driver problem Jun 28 14:10:56 blut: is this an app development issue? Jun 28 14:10:58 blut: because fastboot shows only the devices that are currently running fastboot protocol (those devices don't show in adb) Jun 28 14:11:42 fastboot is presented by bootloader or firmware like UEFI (if at all present), adb is an app once the linux boots Jun 28 14:12:01 p_l: thank you Jun 28 14:12:30 p_l: so if i reboot my phone into recovey/download mode i should be able to connect to it with fastboot? Jun 28 14:15:15 in download mode, if it's implemented with fastboot Jun 28 14:15:27 hmm. the emulator just shows the android logo. does it need to boot up fully to connect to my nexus Jun 28 14:15:31 recovery *might* show in adb (all custom recoveries do) Jun 28 14:15:44 goneeuro: wait till it shows clock Jun 28 14:15:46 p_l: so recovery does show in adb. Jun 28 14:15:53 * p_l went with intel-based android wear Jun 28 14:15:59 p_l: haven't found a way to use fastboot yet Jun 28 14:16:13 how long does it ussually take to boot up? Jun 28 14:16:17 blut: `adb reboot bootloader` Jun 28 14:16:27 goneeuro: well, arm-based emulator always boots slowly Jun 28 14:16:40 yeah. im using the arm based one. Jun 28 14:16:56 its been like 4 or 5 minutes. Jun 28 14:17:00 for the wear stuff, I went with x86, because I honestly doubt I'd use NDK :P Jun 28 14:17:07 goneeuro: assume 30 minutes :> Jun 28 14:17:20 please, I need help with getting something through the api Jun 28 14:17:25 google calendar api Jun 28 14:17:28 it’s impossible Jun 28 14:17:33 I’ve done everything it asks for. Jun 28 14:17:57 I’m not sure what I need to set as application name in setApplicationName on the client. Jun 28 14:17:59 How long does the x86 take to boot? Jun 28 14:19:01 on my pc, 5 seconds Jun 28 14:20:37 goneeuro: if you have virtualization support (on windows and I think Mac that requires an intel cpu and HAXM installed, on linux both amd and intel works as long as you have KVM) Jun 28 14:20:42 then it's v. fast Jun 28 14:21:31 p_l: that just reboot the phone Jun 28 14:21:35 im downloading the x86 now. I am running xubuntu 14.04 64bit Jun 28 14:21:41 p_l: it doesn't let me access the boot loader Jun 28 14:23:15 blut: "reboot bootloader" should put you into download mode Jun 28 14:23:42 mind you, your device might not have fastboot at all, since it's not a required part of the platform Jun 28 14:24:08 p_l: ok Jun 28 14:24:43 p_l: then is there still a way to upload a custom rom? Jun 28 14:24:56 yes. But for that, #android-root might be better place Jun 28 14:25:47 thank you Jun 28 14:26:15 grr. still just showing the android boot screen. Jun 28 14:26:56 are you changing any of the default setting like ram or storage space? Jun 28 14:27:04 p_l: Jun 28 14:27:38 goneeuro: none Jun 28 14:27:42 ok. Jun 28 14:28:37 p_l: this is what i have. Jun 28 14:28:39 http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-06282014-042804pm.php Jun 28 14:29:07 my only difference from that is "use host gpu" Jun 28 14:30:56 can someone please help me with sqlite db Jun 28 14:31:11 ia9371: no Jun 28 14:31:20 pm me Jun 28 14:31:53 um... really no Jun 28 14:32:24 ia9371: you could try asking a real question, and see if anyone answers it Jun 28 14:32:27 where do I put sqliteopenhelper Jun 28 14:32:35 in another activity? Jun 28 14:32:59 i have to make another activity and put extend sqliteopenhelper? Jun 28 14:33:22 no Jun 28 14:34:01 ia9371: https://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/databases.html Jun 28 14:34:17 p_l: what do you mean by surfaceflinger driver? Jun 28 14:35:02 krnlyng: implement a driver so that Android will talk to X11/DRI/OpenGL stack Jun 28 14:35:07 gdrc how do I access my db Jun 28 14:35:20 and read its contents? Jun 28 14:35:35 ia9371: is my name google? Jun 28 14:35:36 krnlyng: the "software" driver iirc uses linux framebuffer, and various devices have their own drivers implementing details Jun 28 14:37:27 p_l: I think i found my issue. I tried to up the storage space to 4gb like the actual watches. Once i dropped that back to normal it started right up. Thanks for your help. Jun 28 14:39:43 Next question. haha. is hangouts updated to work with wear yet? Jun 28 14:40:32 not yet Jun 28 14:40:34 afaik Jun 28 14:41:12 i have not seen any recent hangouts updates Jun 28 14:42:48 has anyone already success executing binaries in /data as superuser on the Android L developer preview? Jun 28 14:44:51 p_l: Just tested it again and it works. The notification is instant and you can swipe to see the whole conversation. Jun 28 14:45:51 goneeuro: the question is whether it is just the normal notification or special support for wearable notification? Jun 28 14:46:02 I know Maps were updated recently for Wear Jun 28 14:46:23 Looks like special as I can reply from the emulator. Jun 28 14:46:40 Do you know if you can use the computer mic to give it commands? Jun 28 14:48:30 I think so Jun 28 14:48:52 I cant get it to do it. hmm. Im gonna have to dig. Jun 28 15:02:15 Is it hard to add Wear compat. to an existing project? Jun 28 15:35:39 Is there any way i can change this line so on different activities it only references 1? searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName())) getComponentName returns different Activity names while i want it to be a specific one Jun 28 15:40:27 Hi all. I need some help with DateFormat. I'm converting a date to a string, and was looking for a way to convert it to the AM / PM system (im in europe) Jun 28 15:40:48 Muchoz: not hard, it seems (unless you're also adding a wear app, not just phone-side compatibility like wear notifications), but you have to be careful because apps with Wear compat can't be uploaded to Play store for now Jun 28 15:40:57 SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm", Locale.US); doesnt do it, it returns it in european format Jun 28 15:41:00 (or if they can, they won't work on majority of devices) Jun 28 15:41:30 p_l, alright. Jun 28 15:41:33 thanks Jun 28 15:43:23 so I guess my question is two-fold: How do I convert a Date's Time to a "locale" friendly format, and how would I test that? Jun 28 15:55:07 i have a ViewPager that has an input field in it, when i swipe to the sides the keyboard minimizes. that takes time (keyboard minimizing), i want the keyboard to be swiped away with the contents of the view. is it possible? Jun 28 16:03:27 Hello! Jun 28 16:04:12 Is C++ fine to start making apps with? Jun 28 16:04:29 I am more used to using languages like C/C++ than Java and I feel it Jun 28 16:04:47 Omit the I feel it lol Jun 28 16:08:04 An activity for API 11+ should extend which class? I was extending ActionBarActivity but realised it's api 7 Jun 28 16:10:30 is there a way to access a test db from shell Jun 28 16:11:42 someHuman: 'native' Android apps are in Java.. you can write apps in C/C++ but it means running outside a lot of the system frameworks - it's meant more for things like games and heavy media applications Jun 28 16:12:10 Leeds: Ah ok Jun 28 16:12:36 Leeds: So ok, I'm the type of person that doesn't do things that'll be useful in the long run. Jun 28 16:12:40 What's good about Java? Jun 28 16:12:42 1) my phablet is able to share mobile data to my laptop using wifi hotspot. 2) my phablet is able to reverses USB tether data from my desktop which in turn recieves data from my router through ethernet cable. 3) But, when I reverse tether data from desktop to my phablet and then share data to my laptop using wifi hotspot, I am not able to get data on my laptop even though I get on my phablet. My aim is to get wireless in Jun 28 16:12:49 with phablet as relay Jun 28 16:12:54 and no wifi dongle Jun 28 16:12:59 b3h3m0th_: is your aim to write an app to do that? Jun 28 16:13:15 I mainly am a C guy, if I am to learn Java I want to know what's good about it. Jun 28 16:13:21 I would write an app if I get to know how Jun 28 16:13:26 someHuman: managed language, millions of existing devs, cross-platform, etc. Jun 28 16:13:38 b3h3m0th_: this is the channel for app dev, not messing with network settings Jun 28 16:13:50 yeah, I know Jun 28 16:14:00 Leeds: So do I learn Java first and at least get good at it then jump into Android app making? Jun 28 16:14:00 necesssity is the mother of inventions Jun 28 16:14:08 yup, probably a good idea Jun 28 16:14:13 I *am* planning to write an app Jun 28 16:14:15 b3h3m0th_: so you're asking your question in the wrong place Jun 28 16:14:46 someHuman: if you know C++, it won't be hard to learn enough Java to get going, even if you don't particularly like it... Jun 28 16:14:57 Ah ok thanks! Jun 28 16:14:59 can you show me the right place > Jun 28 16:15:00 '? Jun 28 16:15:19 b3h3m0th_: #android, probably Jun 28 16:15:35 Wonder if any of the L device images will make it to the N4 before launch Jun 28 16:16:03 I don't know why but when I asked in #android , I had a strong feeling that this had to be asked in android-dev Jun 28 16:16:40 b3h3m0th_: by which you mean "I didn't get an immediate answer, so I thought I'd ask somewhere else" Jun 28 16:16:51 not at all Jun 28 16:16:57 because of the nature of the querry Jun 28 16:17:12 Leeds: So learn Java first right? Jun 28 16:17:29 So at the same time I'm not limited to apps, I can also make apps for PCs Jun 28 16:17:30 someHuman: run through the tutorial, look at a bit of code, then start looking at the Android stuff Jun 28 16:17:45 desktop Java isn't exactly popular nowadays :) Jun 28 16:17:45 I hope it is appropriate to post in stackexchange Jun 28 16:18:25 b3h3m0th_: very simple questions: are you writing code? are you using the SDK? if there isn't at least 1 yes there, you're in the wrong place Jun 28 16:19:46 once I get to know the approach, I'd develop an app. I am a noob at GUI Jun 28 16:20:00 I dont know anything about GUI Jun 28 16:20:08 so, start in #android, then come back here once you're ready to write code Jun 28 16:20:22 fair enough Jun 28 16:26:09 Leeds: This is an ok site to start with right? http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/concepts/index.html Jun 28 16:26:25 yup Jun 28 16:26:29 Thanks! Jun 28 16:27:52 good luck :) Jun 28 16:31:52 do the coordinates at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/SensorEvent.html change with the device, or do they stay relative to the earth? Jun 28 16:33:01 do you guys think it will be called L+Touchwiz? Jun 28 16:33:11 L+Sense? Jun 28 16:33:35 Material Touch Wiz Jun 28 16:34:43 no Jun 28 16:34:49 just Sense 7 or w/e Jun 28 16:34:55 and touch wiz will be touch wiz -_- Jun 28 16:35:03 heh Jun 28 16:35:43 Intellij 14 EAP is out, for those who like messing with that Jun 28 16:35:55 * jug6ernaut is running it Jun 28 16:35:59 seems to be mostly the same Jun 28 16:36:03 tho i haven't played with it much yet Jun 28 16:36:14 yeah i read the changelog and didn't see much Jun 28 16:40:53 question (probably a bit n00b). why does Textview.setWidth not work? Everywhere I look I see the suggestion of using a new layout paramater, but why wouldn't setWidth work? Jun 28 16:46:32 Is it not possible to launch 2 AVDs at once? Jun 28 16:46:41 have 2 active at the same time I mean Jun 28 16:47:37 Hi guys Jun 28 16:48:34 Can anyone help me with this trouble? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24467444/change-progressbar-color-in-progressdialog . I want to change my ProgressDialog's progressBar color, just it, I do not want to change its size, shape... but just the color. Any idea? :( Jun 28 16:49:38 I need some help with building the android-ndk, I freshly downloaded it and executed it with /path/to/ndk/ndk-build and I got this output http://pastebin.com/RXQaF2yH Jun 28 16:50:22 is there someone who has compiled all the samples into one app? Jun 28 16:50:56 Is it a good idea for my app to have an About dialog? should my app have an about dialog? Jun 28 16:51:24 smallfoot- what does ur app do Jun 28 16:52:08 edit text Jun 28 16:52:10 does it matter? Jun 28 16:52:29 ofc Jun 28 16:52:36 oh, how so? Jun 28 16:53:17 need for an about dialog Jun 28 16:53:41 i personally would always add one, but if its something super simple maybe not Jun 28 16:53:47 ah, I see Jun 28 16:54:03 my about dialog says "version 1.0", is it good idea to add build date? Jun 28 16:56:54 na Jun 28 16:57:04 unless u want it for your own use Jun 28 16:57:10 oh Jun 28 16:57:54 yeah, i guess not, Chrome doesn't have build date Jun 28 17:01:04 has anyone got the android-ndk to build correctly? I've read the document files in the package and tried to follow the instructions to the best of my abilities but couldn't get ndk-build to work :( says yuv2rgb_vs_len' undeclared and fails to compile Jun 28 17:03:34 hi guys Jun 28 17:03:42 are sync services run on application startup? or are there run manually? Jun 28 17:06:01 uh Jun 28 17:06:05
