• Porting Android app - problem with Google Maps

  I have an Android app I want to put at the disposal of users of BlackBerry 10 by porting to the Android Runtime of BB. The only stumbling block is that my Android application uses Google Maps API (com.google.android.maps) that does not support the run time. The map screen is only a small feature of the app, and I'm happy to turn it off for BlackBerry users, but is it possible? I don't want to maintain two copies of the request, somehow can code an application so that the conversion to the BAR works, but cards are always available on Android?  I made sure that the reference to the API maps in the Android manifest has the required tag = 'false' and check in my code, if cards are available on the device, but this doesn't seem to be enough.  The Compatibility Checker lists each line in each file of the source code where I make reference to a map object.

  Any help appreciated,

  Jonathan

  No, it's not going to work. Save you time trying to find a solution and just copy your project to a new and necessary modifications for blackberry. If you use source control, then you can try to turn to this probject.

  By the way. If you want to Google maps in your application, it can be done using a webview and Google API javascript.

• Porting Android app problem

  I did a port to android app it job well but... Aspect of the Arabic language is not good, as each letter is separated

  Please someone help to overcome this problem

  Thank you

  Hesham Magdy

  Gingerbread AOSPS Arab support is incomplete.  It is much better supported to Jellybean.

  It is a big complaint that we get, and this is another reason why we will modernize the runtime.

• Porting Android to 10 BB

  When I am porting the app to Android to BB 10 using Onlinepackage tooler, I get this report as shown below.

  (AndroidManifest.xml) uses-library: android.test.runner

  (com/app/LoginActivity.java:305)class: com.app.LoginActivity uses intent category android.intent.category.HOME)

  I am not able to understand what might be changed, should I change anything in the manifest file Andriod?

  Another user has faced a similar problem here: error checking in trying to carry application BlackBerry 10 Android

  To sum up, the home screen modes are not supported. Because Blackberry10 is a gesture based on OS, there is already a built-in method of your application and return to the home screen, by dragging to the top of the bottom of the screen. Abolition of the use of this intent should resolve the error.

  Also note that some types of applications are not supported, including apps from the home screen, Widget apps and apps that are getting more activity.

  For the report on android.test.runner, this should be correct according to the docs here, so it's probably just a warning about the use of external libraries.

  HII

  I had implemented the client side of my android application using apk2bar command line tool, I understand the android.cfg and put the application id and ppg url according to the mail I received regestring the push service bis.

  now my question is how does the side Server? How do I send messages? How to receive tokens?

  IAM a mobile developer and I have implemented service push for ios, android, bada, platforms windows and each of them had the same logic, but the blackberry is different.

  Please help me solve this problem.

  the implementation for porting android applications server-side?

  Hello

  Push is not supported as of now on the Simulator, you can use a real device BlackBerry to test your install your Android app on.

  You can push multiple applications to an initiator to push, but each push-enabled application on the device itself will have its own ID of the application that are associated with him.

  Thank you

• Is it possible to use < input type = file > in "folio" android?

  Hello

  I have a composed folio HTML article, where the user can change his image. To do this I use < input type = file >.

  and javascript of the api file. Everything works very well on iPads, iPhones and android browsers. But when this HTML code is

  placed inside folio adndroid, it is not working. Touch the input element does not bring the window 'choose file '. It doesn't do anything.

  I tested it on various devices adroid and versions of the system. I use the latest Adobe Content Viewer (32.5.3).

  This is limitation of folio android?

  See you soon.

  Unfortunately we do not support this type of input on Android.

• App background stops when the screen turns off

  I wrote an Android app with a Service that receives events from the LocationService and the accelerometer and always try now to wear 10 BlackBerry. Tests on a Z10 STL100-2 10.1.0.4181

  Once the unit has remained unchanged for some time, the location listener is not registered, in order to save energy, and re-recorded a trip again.

  Don't worry, this can be disabled via the visible activity. But it must continue with the last State (start/stop) after the reboot.

  I even magically figured out how to add additional permissions for the manifest of BAR: "_sys_android_autostart_service" and "run_when_backgrounded".

  But as soon as the screen turns off, my application stops working. No location or accelerometer case being received. Turn on the display again, everything back to normal.

  It is meant to be a question about the accelerometer, but I could not find in the tracker.

  So my questions are:

  -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events location when the screen is off?

  -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events of accelerometer when the screen is off?

  -Will my service to continue to operate if more than 8 Apps began after mine? (And the user did not hit the close button)

  -The "headless" 10.2 mode help? (I currently only test with 10.1, because my service provider has not yet unlocked 10.2)

  -Finally, this would be possible with a native application? (I could port the port iOS... lots of fun...)

  Thank you very much for your help!

  PS: If it's of any interest: I use the plugin V1.6.1 Eclipse/ADT to package and install the bar.

  As reported here as well (and I'm sure in other places)

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/Android-runtime-development/accelerometer-turns-off-when-Scre...

  I'm working on a deal in the next version, similar to what we're doing with location requests (in other words, activate us the background mode if your app acquires a partial wake lock).

  Edit:

  So my questions are:

  -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events location when the screen is off?

  (Yes, but you must hold a wake lock).

  -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events of accelerometer when the screen is off?

  (For the moment, no, but I'll change that, so it behaves like location.)  Mind you, this could be used to work on old revisions of the software until the native sensors team added a background of sensor mode which is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled).

  -Will my service to continue to operate if more than 8 Apps began after mine? (And the user did not hit the close button)

  (There are a lot of thing that matters if your Services happens to run or not, which is not limited to, but includes the number of applications already running and the status of the device memory).

  -The "headless" 10.2 mode help? (I currently only test with 10.1, because my service provider has not yet unlocked 10.2)

  (No, it's a native thing.  Your application is already technically without head)

• Excite Pure AT10 - A - move applications to the SD card

  Hello
  I am not able to move applications to the SD card. Also not able to use the SD card as a medium of storage etc.
  Can I just copy files to SD card and this card, but not use it "actively".

  Is it posible to use a card SD of other means of storage? (SanDisk Ultra MicroSD HC I, exFAT)

  Thank you
  Vladimir

  Hi Vladimir

  > I am not able to move applications to the SD card.
  as indicated by the user SlateIsHandy, impossible to move apps to SD card.
  This is a limitation of the Android system. For as far as I know that this was not possible in the first version of Android ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) and Jelly Bean

• asking to be a Skype for linux developer

  Hello. I looked on the microsoft Web site for a work on Skype for linux and I have not found a job. is there a way I can apply to the development of Skype for linux?

  There is no way to apply because, quite simply, there is no employment.

  I think that we must accept that Skype for Linux is is more developed. They did him not officially reported, but there is no indication that any additional, major work he will never.

  The absence of any form of communication from Microsoft through these forums, the status of the downloads page for this version and the fact that the mods don't seem to do anything if someone swears or breaking the rules all point to 4.3.0.37 the final version of Skype for Linux. I invite a mod or someone from Microsoft, to correct me on this if I'm wrong.

  I asked here on porting Android to Linux version and I was told that Microsoft have no news at all on Skype for Linux. If something was being developed that they might say something like: "an update/new version is under development but we are unable to provide a release date for the moment..." "The total lack of news implies a lack of progress or work performed, to the report.
