[General] Problem with 'authorise HTC sense'

Hi, Android 4.1.1 on a Desire X.

I deleted my Flickr account (moved to ipernity) and uninstalled the flickr app. Now I'm getting the error "Authorise HTC Sense - flickr is not responding, try signing in". But of course I can't sign in, because I no longer have a flickr account.

How do I remove Flickr from HTC Sense on my phone? Where are the options for HTC Sense itself located?

Many thanks!

Stephen.

EDIT: Ah, under "Settings:Apps:All apps" there was a "Flickr for HTC Sense". I can't uninstall that, or open it, only Force Stop.

I can only see the main "HTC Sense" under Settings-Apps too, so can't open it directly to tell it to stop looking for Flickr. Any ideas?

Is there a way to play just a genre, like 80's rock? I can navigate to that but can't find a way to just play the entire genre...it just breaks it down to albums, artists and songs.

	You should put your HorizontalListView inside a LinearLayout and pass the tag xlms to LinearLayout and the scroll will work perfectly! answered 3 mins ago

[android help] android.content.ActivityNotFoundException, unable to start activity

I am not sure what you are trying to do.

But a couple of suggestions to try.

    package="com.eco4cloud.activities" // make sure package name is right

Mention the package name as above

            android:name="com.eco4cloud.activities.Main" 
        // this probably MainActivity. Cross Check once
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        
            
            
        
         

Since you have explicit intent you don't require a intent-filter

      // use this assuming Datacenters is in package com.eco4cloud.activities
              android:name=".Datacenters" 
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
    

If you are starting a activity in a non-activity class

     public void startDatacenters() {
     Intent intent = new Intent(context, Datacenters.class);
     // assuming context is the activity content  
     context.startActivity(intent);
     //in your case you have activity.startActivity(intent)
     // not sure what activity is 
    }

[android help] How to add date in sqlite database

I have sqlite database

    private static final String DB_PROCESS_CREATE = "create table "
        + DB_TABLE_PROCESS + "(" + PROCESS_ID
        + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + PROCESS_DATE + " date);";

I create it `db.execSQL(DB_PROCESS_CREATE);

How to add date value in this datebase? I tried :

String date = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd").format(Calendar
.getInstance().getTime());
ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
cv.put(db.PROCESS_DATE,Date.valueOf(date));
db.mDB.insert(db.DB_TABLE_PROCESS, null, cv));

But then I get error "The method put(String, String) in the type ContentValues is not applicable for the arguments (String, Date)".

[android help] How to start an activity from a thread class in android?

Tell me more ×

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

	I am extending a thread class and from that class I want to start an activity. How to do this? asked Jun 8 '11 at 5:42

You need to call startActivity() on the application's main thread. One way to do that is by doing the following: Initialize a Handler and associate it with the application's main thread. Handler handler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()); Wrap the code that will start the Activity inside an anonymous Runnable class and pass it to the Handler#post(Runnable) method. handler.post(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { Intent intent = new Intent (MyActivity.this, NextActivity.class); startActivity(intent); } }); answered 34 mins ago

you can use Something like this. public class MyActivity extends Activity { Handler hander = new Handler(){ public void handleMessage(Message m){ Intent intent = new Intent (MyActivity.this, Next.class); startActivity(intent); } }; pubilc void onCreate(Bundle ic) { //your code setContentView() etc.... Thread toRun = new Thread() { public void run() { hander.sendMessage(1); } } toRun.start(); } } answered Jun 8 '11 at 5:53

Well to start an activity of an class, a class should extends with activity according to me. But if you want to start activity with some threading function you can do these things. Instead of extends Thread, use implements Runnable. After that some class that have an Activity you just call the start thread and put your logic and that start Intent. I think this is the good solution for you. answered Jun 8 '11 at 5:51

[android help] Pull to refresh example, Eclipse don't find setOnRefreshListener command

iam dealing with well known pull to refresh example from Git-hub

I loaded library and everything is working as it should but when i want to call method setOnRereshListener, Eclipse don't find it. What could be a problem?

This is code from example:

        PullToRefreshListView pullToRefreshView = (PullToRefreshListView) findViewById(R.id.pull_to_refresh_listview);      
    pullToRefreshView.setOnRefreshListener(new OnRefreshListener() {
        @Override
        public void onRefresh(PullToRefreshBase refreshView) {
            // Do work to refresh the list here.
            new GetDataTask().execute();
        }
    });

And this is my code:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private static final String URL = "http://192.168.1.103/php-android/testphp.php"; 
private static final String TAG_DATA = "data";
private static final String TAG_ID = "name";       
private static final String TAG_DATE = "date";      
public PullToRefreshListView listView;  
JSONArray data = null;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder() .detectAll().penaltyLog().build(); 
    StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
    getDataInArray();

    PullToRefreshListView pullToRefreshView = (PullToRefreshListView) findViewById(R.id.pull_to_refresh_listview);      
    pullToRefreshView.setOnRefreshListener(new OnRefreshListener() {
        @Override
        public void onRefresh(PullToRefreshBase refreshView) {
            // Do work to refresh the list here.
            new GetDataTask().execute();
        }
    });     
}
