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!

Widget for Official Twitter App Not Updating [General]

Widget for Official Twitter App Not Updating

i noticed the widget for the official twitter app does not update at startup unless i open the app. yes, sync data is on and sync interval is set. in addition, the phone was reset and reformatted with no avail. also installed it on another device with same results. even though the widget does not update, i still get dm, mention, favorite, and retweet notifcations. strange.

the facebook widget will always update at startup. i also use the seesmic widget which updates at startup. difference between facebook and seesmic is that seesmic has an option in the settings, "launch at startup" in "misc". after the device is turned on and completes loading up, the app does not open but starts running in the background. going back to facebook, it doesnt have an option like that. regardless, it starts running in background.

finally, the question. how do we get the twitter app to run in the background at startup so the widget can update?

btw, already tried 3 different startup manager apps but they open the twitter app at startup. it will get the widget to udpate because the app is now opened but thats not what im looking for.

Phone-to-PC connection app [General]

Phone-to-PC connection app

Hi folks.

Big hands + small phone = need for a GOOD phone-to-PC connection app.

Phone is a Medion E4002 (bought from Aldi) running Android 4.1.1. Does everything I want and great value for money.

I've tried a few apps but so far not found anything that easily allows me to do all my phone editing on the PC screen – mainly extensive contacts editing, but also file transfer etc. Texting is a big one too, as I need to frequently send text messages to groups.

I want an app that loads when I want to use it, not when it thinks it's needed – some are really annoying in this respect.

I sit at my desk all day with phone beside me so connection will always be via USB cable. Don't care about other connection types (Bluetooth, etc).

Any suggestions?

Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I want to synchronize other sensor data with the video I'm recording, and so I'd like to record "how far am I into the video" when the sensor is triggered. Is there any way to do this? I couldn't find an appropriate method on the MediaRecorder class. Another solution would be to just get the precise start time of the video recording, but my tests show that the video starts ~1sec after calling mediarecorder.start, but it's not consistent. asked 38 mins ago

You have raised an interesting topic. If you refer to the documentation in the developer page, the following diagram states the recording is supposed to start when the start() method is called. Your solution is supposed to be correct albeit there is a lag up to 1 sec. I would do it the same way I went through the MediaRecorder class methods, the only method that seems to be useful is the callback setOnInfoListener(). Set it and see if you will get some kind of information when the recording starts! I haven't tried it yet though. answered 9 mins ago

Gesture OnFling not called in ListView [android help]

Gesture OnFling not called in ListView

I need some help with handling the gestures on a listview. I have an videoview that I want to be able to detect left and right swipes on the layout below:

Link to a drawing of the current gesture and what is expected

The onFling method that i used to capture the event is not called

public class OnSwipeTouchListener implements OnTouchListener {

private final GestureDetector gestureDetector;
private FeedAdapter callback;

public OnSwipeTouchListener(Context context, FeedAdapter callback) {
    gestureDetector = new GestureDetector(context, new GestureListener());
    this.callback = callback; 
}
@Override
public boolean onTouch(final View view, final MotionEvent motionEvent) {
    return gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(motionEvent);
}

private final class GestureListener extends SimpleOnGestureListener {

    private static final int SWIPE_THRESHOLD = 30;

    @Override
    public boolean onDown(MotionEvent e) {
        return true;
    }


    public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) {
        Log.v("Tom", "tap");
        triggerTouch();
        return true;
    }
    @Override
    public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX,
            float velocityY) {
        boolean result = false;
        Log.v("Swipe","is called"); // this is not called when swipe is not perfectly straight
        try {
            float diffX = e2.getX() - e1.getX();
            if (Math.abs(diffX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD) {
                if (diffX > 0) {
                    onSwipeRight();
                } else {
                    onSwipeLeft();
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception exception) {
            exception.printStackTrace();
        }
        return result;
    }
}

public void onSwipeRight() {
}

public void onSwipeLeft() {
}

public void triggerTouch() {
}

public void onSwipeBottom() {
}
}

So how to make the onFling be called when user swipes slightly off horizontal?

Thank you for your help!

Push notification to send from admin app to user app in android [android help]

Push notification to send from admin app to user app in android

I am working on android applications. I have two apps, user app and admin app. My requirement is the user sends request to admin app, and when the admin finds if the request is useful then it will accept the request and will send a notification to the user.

Due to some problems I cant use either php or .net webservice to send the push notification to user app. So I used third party library to send the notification. I followed the tutorial of parse push notification from https://parse.com/tutorials/android-push-notifications and worked on that example. I am able to send the notification to my application.

But here according to my requirement, when the admin app sends a request to user app, how will it uniquely identifies the user. There will be so many users who use my app. Once the admin accepts the request of a particular user it will send a notificatin to only that particular user. How can I achieve this task using parse push notification.

I am storing the user details and admin details in server database.

Will be really thankful for any suggestions.

Using get() and put() to access pixel values in OpenCV for JAVA [android help]

Using get() and put() to access pixel values in OpenCV for JAVA

I am a beginner in using OpenCV for JAVA. I want to access individual pixel values of an image matrix. Since, JAVA jar for OpenCV doesn't offer nice functions like C++, I ran into some trouble. After lot of searching, I found out two different methods to do that though they are not explained properly (not even in documentation). We can do that either using get() and put() functions or by converting the mat data into a primitive java type such as arrays. I tried both but getting different output results! Please help explaining what am I doing wrong. Am I using them wrong or some other silly problem. I am still a newbie so please forgive if its a stupid question. :)

CASE 1: Using get() function

Mat A = Highgui.imread(image_addr); \\"image_addr" is the address of the image
Mat C = A.clone();
Size sizeA = A.size();
for (int i = 0; i < sizeA.height; i++)
    for (int j = 0; j < sizeA.width; j++) {
        double[] data = A.get(i, j);
        data[0] = data[0] / 2;
        data[1] = data[1] / 2;
        data[2] = data[2] / 2;
        C.put(i, j, data);
    }

CASE 2: Using Array

Mat A = Highgui.imread(image_addr); \\"image_addr" is the address of the image
Mat C = A.clone();
int size = (int) (A.total() * A.channels());
byte[] temp = new byte[size];
A.get(0, 0, temp);
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
   temp[i] = (byte) (temp[i] / 2);
C.put(0, 0, temp);

Now according to my understanding they both should do the same thing. They both access the individual pixel values (all 3 channels) and making it half. I am getting no error after running. But, the output image I am getting is different in these two cases. Can someone please explain what is the issue? May be I don't understand exactly how get() function works? Is it because of the byte() casting? Please help.

Thanks!

File object can't find the file when there is one [android help]

File object can't find the file when there is one

In my app After user clicks on a button ,the download manager starts to download a file from internet and saving it to the internal sd card using this code:

void startDownload()
    {
        Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS).mkdirs();        
        download_req.setAllowedNetworkTypes(DownloadManager.Request.NETWORK_WIFI | DownloadManager.Request.NETWORK_MOBILE)
        .setAllowedOverRoaming(false)
        .setTitle(PersianReshape.reshape("Downloading"))
        .setDescription(PersianReshape.reshape("currently downloading the file..."))
        .setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() , packageId + ".sqlite");
        download_ID = mgr.enqueue(download_req);
    }

After it is downloaded, I plan to check its existance everytime app runs with this code:

String DatabaseAddress =
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() +
"/ee.sqlite";
File file = new File(DatabaseAddress);
Log.d("PATH File: ", DatabaseAddress);
if (file.exists()){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "found", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "not found", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

Now when I run this code it returns "not found" message whereas the file is already there (I checked its existance using a file manager).

the device I test on is nexus 7 and path used in saving the download file is: /storage/emulated/0/ee.sqlite

ee.sqlite is the filename of downloaded file.

/storage/emulated/0/ is the default path returned by app

Permissions added to manifest for this code are:

Q: Why does file.exists() returns false when there is a file?

Disable checkbox if X are checked in android [android help]

Disable checkbox if X are checked in android

I have 15 CheckBox and I must to stuck user when he checks more than 5 CheckBox. Is it possible? I used the method OnCheckedChangeListener to know if an item was checked... but I don't know how to make a limit after 5 items selected. See what I've tried to do below:

I instante my integer:

int lengthBox = 15;
int lenghtMax = 5;  

I select all my View in onCreate():

View[] tagsItem = new View[] { 
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckAA),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckBB),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckCC),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckDD),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckEE),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckFF),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckGG),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckHH),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckII),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckJJ),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckKK),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckLL),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckMM),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckNN),
    findViewById(R.id.TagsCheckOO)
};  

I create 15 CheckBox:

final CheckBox[] tagsCheck = new CheckBox[lengthBox];  

Create the method (and it's here where I don't know what to do exactly):

OnCheckedChangeListener checker = new OnCheckedChangeListener(){ 
    @Override
    public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton cb, boolean b) {
          if(tagsCheck[0].isChecked() || tagsCheck[1].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[2].isChecked() || tagsCheck[3].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[4].isChecked() || tagsCheck[5].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[6].isChecked() || tagsCheck[7].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[8].isChecked() || tagsCheck[9].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[10].isChecked() || tagsCheck[11].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[12].isChecked() || tagsCheck[13].isChecked() || 
             tagsCheck[14].isChecked()) {  
            if(lenghtCount < 5){
                    // How can I get the String of the CheckBox 
                    // which just checked?
                String tags = (String) tagsCheck[].getText();
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
                tags + " checked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }else{
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
                "Limit reached!!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }
    }
};  

After this, I set my View id to my CheckBox and call the method:

for(int i = 0; i < lengthBox; i++) {
    tagsCheck[i] = (CheckBox) tagsItem[i];
    tagsCheck[i].setOnCheckedChangeListener(checker);
}  

Can someone point me in the right way, please?

Thanks, any help will be appreciate.

---

UPDATE:

I found an inelegant way with an if(tagsCheck[0].isChecked() || ...). But I have still a problem: how can I get the CheckBox which just checked? Cause of my if(), I don't know how can I do this.

Thanks!

MediaRecorder crash [android help]

MediaRecorder crash

---

Very beginner in Android/Java, coming from C and Symbian, I started from the Hellworld example to try to display the sound level (the project is to record this level in a text file for hours). This code is written in the MainActivity file, as a method inside the MainActivity Class :

public void GetAFlevel(View view) throws IllegalStateException, IOException {
    float audiolevel = 0, maxal = 0;
    MediaRecorder mRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
    mRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
    mRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
    mRecorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
    mRecorder.setOutputFile("/dev/null");
    mRecorder.prepare();
    mRecorder.start();
    for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
        audiolevel = mRecorder.getMaxAmplitude();
        if (audiolevel > maxal)
            maxal = audiolevel;
    }
    EditText editText1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
    editText1.setText(String.valueOf(maxal));
    mRecorder.stop();
    mRecorder.release();
    mRecorder = null;
}

The result is a crash of the application on the target :

11-17 00:23:09.859: D/AndroidRuntime(22096): Shutting down VM

11-17 00:23:09.859: W/dalvikvm(22096): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x40018578)

11-17 00:23:09.921: E/AndroidRuntime(22096): FATAL EXCEPTION: main

11-17 00:23:09.921: E/AndroidRuntime(22096): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not execute method of the activity

No crash if I remove the following MediaRecorder functions : setAudioSource, setOutputFormat, setAudioEncoder, setOutputFile, prepare, start and stop, but getMaxAmplitude returns 0, of course.

As soon as I add only setAudioSource (normaly the only necessary for getMaxAmplitude), crash !

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance.

Why can't I take screenshots in Android Emulator after installing Genymotion? [android help]

Why can't I take screenshots in Android Emulator after installing Genymotion?

Tell me more ×

Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I've installed Genyomtion android emulator. Then I realized I can't take screenshots in Eclipse DDMS view. After that, I tried to take a screenshot with standard android emulator that comes with the SDK. It didn't work. Eclipse shows me a black image instead of screenshot. It worked before I installed Genymotion! It's suspicious that Genymotion hacked my ADB, because screenshot taking is part of PAID version of GenyMotion! Has anyone experienced the same problem? How can I get Eclipse taking screenshots again without reinstalling it? Thanks in advance! asked 18 hours ago Áron Nemmondommegavezetéknevem 286

	It's a known bug on 4.3 images, they are working on a fix. On a 4.2.2 image it's working for me, you can try to create a 4.2.2 device to take screenshot in the meantime. Source: On twitter @genymotion responded to @Littledot1230 on this question :) answered 12 hours ago

	I have just used Genymotion and Eclipse DDMS today to take a screenshot for an app store submission. So it works on at least these versions on my Win8 Pro machine: Genymotion v1.1.0 Android 4.2.2 10" image Eclipse ADT v22.0.1 Edit: so 4.2.2 is why mine worked - thanks Bonrry answered 18 hours ago Richard Le Mesurier 4,81912572

Android KitKat set language for Bluetooth voice dial [General]

Android KitKat set language for Bluetooth voice dial

Android KitKat set language for Bluetooth voice dial

Hi, i'm having a problem with my new Nexus 5. Please note this is my first android device.

I cant figure out how to change the input language for dialing with a bluetooth headset which is pretty annoying since most of my contacts have french names. Everything else works fine with french voice commands on the phone except for the bluetooth voice dialer which always specifies English on the top right.

Can anyone tell me how to change this? I would prefer to keep the menus un english if possible, but I have even tried removing english and setting french everywhere and it didn't change the voice dialing option.

Thank you
