Google Voice on T-Mobile? [General]

Google Voice on T-Mobile?

So I recently switched from a GNex on Verizon to a Moto X DE on T-Mobile. I had always used Google Voice for my voicemail when on Verizon.

Well now since switching to T-Mobile I can no longer get Voice to function as my voicemail. When I download and setup the app and then call my phone it will ring but then when voicemail should come up I just get an error saying "We cannot complete your call as dialed" or something along those lines. When I switch back to carrier voicemail everything works.

So am I doing something wrong during setup? Is Voice even compatible with T-Mobile?

new kind of SPAM - straight in OS - not AirPush

So, Galaxy S4, Verizon, Android 4.2.2,

New kind of spam that shows up right on home screen or on top of running app. (see picture below)

Lookout didn't find anything. Airpush_Detector didn't find anything.

How do I find out on what app it piggybacked into my phone / how do I get rid of it? And why does Google allow these apps in the Marketplace anyway...

Galaxy S4 GPE - noob questions [General]

Galaxy S4 GPE - noob questions

So my new S4 GPE arrives in 48 hours and I cannot wait to start tinkering, (currently on iphone 5). I purchased a SanDisk 32GB Extreme microSDHC card as well. How can I use the SanDisk card? Can I install apps to the card? I assume/hope that I can store pictures/videos/music on the card as well?

What is a launcher?

I'd like to be able to have email, SMS, Calendar, missed call/voicemail notifications directly on my lockscreen as I do now with my iphone. Is this possible? If so, how do I accomplish this?

Thanks.

Trying to execute/debug an existing APK file with Eclipse [android help]

Trying to execute/debug an existing APK file with Eclipse

I have an existing .APK file without any sources. I want to debug it with Eclipse on Bluestacks (or other) emulator. Eventually, I'd like to set a breakpoint, but for now, I just want to get it to run on the emulator. I'm not talking about just using adb to install it on the emulator and then run there. I've been unsuccessful in getting the resulting .apk, built by Eclipse, to run on the emulator.

Here are the steps I've done:

1. I renamed the .apk to .zip and unzip into a folder.


2. In Eclipse, I created a new "Android project from existing code". In the next screen, "Import Projects", I browsed to the folder where the apk was unzipped.

But this project has errors in Eclipse! So I tried the next steps:

1. I executed apktool on the .apk, and it created a folder which I use for the same import mentioned in step 2. Now the project no longer has errors.


2. In Eclipse, I "run as" or "debug as" this project as an Android application, and it starts on the emulator.

No good! The logcat shows errors such as "dalvikv - thread exiting with uncaught exception". And there are other logcat messages about being unable to instantiate application and java.lang.ClassNotFoundException.

QUESTION 1: Can someone tell me what other steps are necessary to turn this into a "good" project? Is there something obvious that I'm missing about Classes?

Once I can get it to either "run as" or "debug as" successfully, then I will want to debug it by setting a breakpoint. But I can't seem to get the source folder right. I have .smali files as a result of the apktool step mentioned in step 3. Also, I've tried various tools, such as dex2jar and jd-gui, so that I have .java files. But whenever I point tell Eclipse the folder where these sources are (and I have "search subfolders" checked), Eclipse says "Source not found". And "Edit Source Lookup Path". I also tried putting the sources in the /src folder of the workspace.

QUESTION 2: Where can I put the sources so that Eclipse will find them? Can these source files be either .smali or .java?

How do I display a string in an Android app? [android help]

How do I display a string in an Android app?

I'm confused on exactly what your problem is here but you have a couple problems if you want your TextView to display the message. This line here

TextView textView = new TextView(this);

will create a new TextView, not reference the one you have in your xml. And it won't show because you haven't added it to your contentView. So, when you call setContentView(R.layout.activity_display_message); what will be shown is what is in activity_display_message. If you want to access that View then you need to give it an id in your xml file and access it with findViewById(). So give it an id

android:id="@+id/tv1"   // give it an id here
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/entered_message" />

then access it after calling setContentView(...)

   @Override
   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

      Intent intent = getIntent();
      String message = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_display_message);
      TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv1);  // reference it here with the id you gave it in the xml

}

Now that you have referenced the TextView, you can call setText(), setTextSize(), etc.. if need be.

I'm not exactly sure what String you want where so its hard to give much more help without a better explanation. But note that

String message = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);

will assign the message variable to whatever is passed in your Intent from the calling Activity.

Google Plus +1 an Google Play application? [android help]

Google Plus +1 an Google Play application?

My question is regarding the Google Play +1 button now available inside Android apps. I managed to include a fully functional +1 button inside my app, however it takes an URL as a parameter to "+1", and my question is regarding which URL should I use.

Watching the Google I/O I saw that Google will recommend apps based on what your friends +1'd, so what I'm trying to archive is creating an +1 button that will have the same behavior as +1'ing though the Google Play app details page.

Should I use the Google Play URL? What else can I do?

Thanks for responding.

Touch point coordinates with respect to Image after pinch zoom [android help]

Touch point coordinates with respect to Image after pinch zoom

How to calculate the coordinates with respect to image after zoom the image? To zoom the image I followed the url: https://github.com/MikeOrtiz/TouchImageView/blob/master/src/com/example/touch/TouchImageView.java.

if we touch the image at particular point before Zoom then corresponding values are

point:(3,2)
top left corner of image:(0,0)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
scale factors:(1.25,0.98)

After zoom the image:

if we drag the image until the image top left corner coincides the screen top left corner and touch image exactly at same touch point(before pinch) then

point:(540,220)
top left corner of image:(0,0)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
scale factors:(4.78,2.67)

if we drag the image until the image top right corner coincides with the screen top right corner and touch image exactly at same touch point(before pinch) then

point:(1080,340)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
top left corner of image:(-2430,0)
scale factors:(4.78,2.67)

if we drag the image until the image bottom left corner coincides with the screen bottom left corner and touch image exactly at same touch point(before pinch) then

point:(670,80)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
top left corner of image:(0,-890)
scale factors:(4.78,2.67)

if we drag the image until the image bottom right corner coincides with the screen bottom right corner and touch image exactly at same touch point(before pinch) then

point:(456,274)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
top left corner of image:(-2430,-890)
scale factors:(4.78,2.67)

if we set the image over the screen [ not to set the any corner]

point:(743,146)
top left corner of screen:(0,0)
top left corner of image:(-1280,-423)
scale factors:(4.78,2.67)

In all the above scenarios I am getting the coordinates in touch event as

x_cord=event.getX();
y_cord=event.getY();

The touch points I am getting are with respect to the screen.

How can I calculate the touch points according to the Image?

Thanks & Regards mini.

Activate setting not showing during ActiveSync config [General]

Activate setting not showing during ActiveSync config

Hi all,

I have a phone where Im trying to configure ActiveSync. It all goes "smoothly" because the account can be configured. The problem is when I try to view email on the configured account. It says that security policies have to be updated but I dont know where to go. I tried to remove and add the account again but I never see the "Activate" prompt where Im supposed to accept the security policies. Therefore, I dont see the Email app as a device administrator as I do on all the other users I have configured their accounts for.

Thanks in advance!
