02:21.08 | romainguy | during the development they were happening over wifi too |
02:21.10 | spikebike | or good |
02:21.13 | spikebike | no 3g here |
02:21.14 | waldo_ | is there anything interesting in that? |
02:21.47 | waldo_ | they look like they have the same build number 115247 whatever that is about. |
02:21.53 | waldo_ | romainguy: you work at google right? |
02:21.59 | romainguy | I do |
02:22.17 | waldo_ | is there a difference between rc28 and rc29? Should I install one over the other? |
02:22.27 | romainguy | you know |
02:22.32 | waldo_ | i ask because rc28 reports as rc29 anyway |
02:22.38 | waldo_ | or so I'm told... |
02:22.39 | romainguy | we don't release updates that you should NOT install |
02:22.45 | romainguy | just use the latest |
02:22.47 | spikebike | heh well |
02:22.54 | waldo_ | okay. rc29 it is :) |
02:22.59 | romainguy | that's why you should just get the OTA updates as they arrive |
02:23.04 | romainguy | not trying to do what you're doing :)) |
02:23.04 | spikebike | I'm not sure I'd call random files floating around rapidshare as updates |
02:23.12 | waldo_ | romainguy: well I've been patient... |
02:23.20 | romainguy | updates will come |
02:23.21 | waldo_ | spikebike: these aren't from rapidshare.. these are both downloaded from google direct |
02:23.27 | romainguy | they are not rolled out to all users at the same time |
02:23.30 | waldo_ | android.client.google etc |
02:23.30 | elad | hell im still at rc19 |

02:23.58 | spikebike | romain do you know if the download can be resumed? |
02:24.05 | waldo_ | romainguy: yeah... but y'know we're early adopters so we have to have the latest/greatest... wish there was some "here's whats' new" doc somewhere tho |
02:24.20 | spikebike | not sure how often I get an edge connection for long enough to get a 45MB download at one time |
02:24.32 | waldo_ | spikebike: download with your computer then just ocpy the file |
02:24.33 | romainguy | spikebike: no worry, it doesn't have to happen in one shot |

03:19.32 | ttuttle | waldo_: I got my phone through the friends and family program, so I run a sort of testing builds. (More cutting-edge than the "for-testing" ones.) |
03:19.43 | Elijah | Is there anyway of buying one of these and putting it on Sprints network? |
03:19.47 | ttuttle | Elijah: No. |
03:19.51 | ttuttle | Elijah: Sprint is not GSM. |
03:19.57 | Elijah | Hmm |
03:20.00 | spikebike | ttuttle right |
03:20.02 | Elijah | How bout ATT then |
03:20.13 | ttuttle | Elijah: Certainly, if you can convince T-Mo to unlock it. |
03:20.16 | spikebike | yeah, if you pay full price gsm should work |
03:20.20 | ttuttle | Elijah: I'm using mine with AT&T. |
03:20.27 | spikebike | or pay for the unlock |
03:20.28 | ttuttle | Elijah: Just beware that the 3G won't work. |
03:20.32 | Elijah | ttuttle: how did you do that? |
03:20.45 | Elijah | The G1 is not 3G? |
03:20.47 | ttuttle | Elijah: I'm testing for Google, so I asked for an unlocked one. |
03:20.51 | spikebike | it's 3g only on tmobile |
03:20.54 | ttuttle | Elijah: The G1 is 3G, but it only works on T-Mo's frequencies. |
03:21.00 | Elijah | bummer |
03:21.04 | ttuttle | Elijah: It could work on AT&T, but they'd need to change the hardware slightly. |
03:21.09 | spikebike | it's pretty damn nice on edge though |
03:21.15 | Elijah | I want one badly but T-mobile coverage isn't the greatest here |
03:21.18 | ttuttle | Elijah: It's actually not so bad... ever since iPhone 1G, EDGE on AT&T has been *much* faster. |
03:22.50 | unix_remote | verizon has rolled out GSM right? |
03:22.57 | ttuttle | unix_remote: No! They're CDMA, I think. |

03:31.33 | spikebike | yeah, it's fine |

03:33.35 | spikebike | maps, app downloads, even youtube is reasonable over edge |

03:56.22 | spikebike | couldn't a dalvik port to windows mobile, sybian, or OSX allow the same apps to run? |
03:57.03 | spikebike | Ryebyre I believe the roadmap includes an extension to allow arbitrary user input devices ... like an onscreen keyboard |
03:57.28 | RyeBrye | I'd FIX IT myself - and contribute patches - but since I'd have no reliable way of testing if it works - and even if I did get it working in the emulator or something I'd have to wait an unknown period of time to get my own patches on my own device... I don't see any reason to hack away at it |
03:58.23 | RyeBrye | Yeah, the interface framework will be good once it's written - and it's probably a prerequisite to getting a bluetooth keyboard working properly - but I would think bluetooh HID would be handled much nicer at the OS level that in some background process running in userspace |
03:58.52 | RyeBrye | I would even accept a service where if you write patches and google likes them - they send you back a signed image to flash on your own phone |
03:59.11 | RyeBrye | without haven't to wait until whenever to get the OTA update |
04:00.23 | spikebike | yeah the tmo device isn't really open |
04:00.34 | spikebike | sad |
04:00.59 | RyeBrye | Yeah, and so far it seems like it's even more locked down than other t-mobile HTC devices |

04:03.33 | wastrel | Waldo-g1: i was using ircii in 1993 :] |

04:04.04 | spikebike | hopefully folks will jailbrake the g1 so folks can hack on it willy nilly |
04:04.06 | RyeBrye | Yeah, it was pretty decent when they announced it - but it took so long it was outdated when it hit the shelves |
04:04.09 | Waldo-g1 | wastrel yeah... that's the last time I had to install an irc client! |

04:05.29 | Waldo-g1 | got it |

04:05.33 | Waldo-g1 | okay then irssi... |
04:05.47 | Waldo-g1 | it is.. I mean.. seirously I haven't used irc in a while.. |
04:05.55 | Waldo-g1 | gonna switch... back in a few. |
04:06.19 | spikebike | if the other htc devices are less locked down maybe someone will port android to one of them |
04:06.27 | spikebike | the other nice fit would be the treo pro |
04:06.31 | spikebike | almost identical hardware |
04:06.52 | spikebike | (resolution, cpu, gps, memory, graphics, etc.) |
04:07.02 | spikebike | and of course a hardware keyboard |
04:07.22 | spikebike | has the same qualcom 7201 or whatever it's called |
04:08.52 | RyeBrye | I wonder how hard it would be to create an SD simulator - basically a little card that would present itself as if it were an SD card - but you can control it... |

06:11.07 | ttuttle | okay |
06:11.13 | umdk1d3 | was nice seeing it in hd tho |

06:13.08 | romainguy | that could be cool |

06:15.25 | RyeBrye | http://gallery.mac.com/m1928#100000 that's a video of a short fun one that you could take a camera in very easily and get some good shots depending on the time of day... I edited that in the car on the way back from the trip last time |
06:15.56 | RyeBrye | now wonders how many years until the cell phone is capable of doing video editing of high-res video clips on the fly :) |
06:17.11 | romainguy | hauling photo gear in there must suck :)) |
06:17.33 | RyeBrye | It's not nearly as bad as hauling 400 feet of rope through some of the things we do |
06:17.55 | romainguy | well I have a lot of photo gear |
06:17.58 | romainguy | but I believe you :)) |
06:18.40 | RyeBrye | Yeah, you'd probably want to be selective on what you brought - one of the guys we sometimes go with is also a big photo buff and he could probably give you pointers on what he does with his stuff to make sure it survives and that he has what he wants |
06:18.59 | romainguy | yeah protecting the gear must be hard sometimes :) |
06:19.51 | RyeBrye | I spaced it and had my video camera in the top of my pack one time because it was acting up... normally I have it in a hard plastic underwater case but this canyon was a dry one so I didn't want that extra weight |
06:19.59 | RyeBrye | oops... |
06:20.40 | RyeBrye | once stuff goes into your pack, it's very easy to forget what is in there and just toss it around |
06:20.47 | romainguy | I bet |
06:21.01 | romainguy | I often do the same on hikes |
06:21.04 | romainguy | so I can't imagine there :) |
06:24.13 | RyeBrye | If you had a good, lightweight, but really adjustable tripod or something you could use to brace the camera against sandstone - you could get some amazing shots in some of these canyons |
06:24.31 | RyeBrye | The problem, of course, is that the lighting is always really low |
06:24.46 | romainguy | yeah, in Antelope I had my big sturdy tripod because it's a dry one with sand at the bottom |
06:25.11 | romainguy | I'd definitely not take this one in a canyon like the one from your video :) |
06:26.49 | RyeBrye | The Subway in Zion is a good one for photos - and it wouldn't be bad to take a camera through that one since the parts where you really want the nice photos it's safe to take all your gear out and stuff |
06:27.14 | romainguy | I'm planning on getting a new camera by the end of the year |
06:27.22 | romainguy | so I'll have at least one to sacrifice if need be ^^ |
06:27.40 | romainguy | (I sacrificed one in China already) |
06:27.46 | RyeBrye | That stinks |
06:28.38 | RyeBrye | Yeah, we're always looking for excuses to get out - so if you were coming up whenever just drop me a line and we could work something out... you could even probably just pick ones you wanted to do and we'd either be excited about it or tell you if they suck |
06:28.45 | RyeBrye | (most are good, but some suck) |
06:28.55 | romainguy | suck in what way? |
06:28.57 | romainguy | just boring? |
06:29.02 | RyeBrye | Yeah, boring |
06:29.19 | RyeBrye | or a really really long boring approach for a not-that-exciting canyon, followed by a really long buswacking exit |
06:29.36 | romainguy | way to ruin your groove :) |
06:29.38 | RyeBrye | Oooh |
06:29.50 | RyeBrye | you've heard of the narrows in Zion, right? There are 3 canyons that exit into the narrows |
06:30.01 | romainguy | yes, but I've never been to the narrows |
06:30.01 | RyeBrye | both Mystery and Imlay are awesome canyons |
06:31.02 | romainguy | at least they must not be too crowded |
06:31.08 | RyeBrye | Imlay is a very technical canyon - and it's not crowded at all |
06:31.11 | romainguy | Antelope was very disappointing in that regard :(( |
06:31.15 | RyeBrye | Oh, yeah |
06:31.24 | RyeBrye | These canyons are not at all crowded - you wont see anyone but the people in your group |
06:31.26 | romainguy | stupid foreign tourists :)) |
06:31.37 | romainguy | eheh that's cool |
06:32.28 | RyeBrye | Although when you drop into the narrows, usually that is crowded - more so in Mystery because it's close to the bus stop |
06:32.29 | RyeBrye | http://climb-utah.com/Zion/imlay1.htm |
06:32.56 | romainguy | must suck to get caught in a flash flood in there :) |
06:33.02 | RyeBrye | Yeah, you really watch the weather |
06:33.15 | RyeBrye | a flash flood would most definitely ruin your day |
06:34.01 | romainguy | -r day |
06:34.18 | RyeBrye | There are some canyons that have exits - but most do not |
06:34.48 | romainguy | well you can exit up and dead :) |
06:35.17 | RyeBrye | There is one in the San Rafael Swell called the Squeeze that's fun - and the exact opposite of crowded. At one point before you drop in the canyon, you can look in every direction and see absolutely no other person |
06:35.28 | romainguy | ahah sweet |
06:35.30 | RyeBrye | for several miles in every direction |
06:37.07 | RyeBrye | Most of the people who are really into technical slot canyons that I know are also technical people... lots of programmers, a few engineers, and one guy that now has a company making canyoneering gear graduated from MIT in something |
06:37.33 | romainguy | I wonder if there's a link :) |
06:38.16 | RyeBrye | There are a lot of fun challenges to it one you get into it - plus there must be some part of the brain that likes going through canyons that also likes doing other technical stuff.... I don't know |
06:39.43 | RyeBrye | The guy who did these photos is one of my friends too - but not in my regular group: http://www.canyoneeringusa.com/rave/dan0709esc/pages/page7.html |
06:39.49 | RyeBrye | he's also a big photo buff / canyoneering buff |
06:40.18 | romainguy | nice |

07:38.02 | RyeBrye | "The updates are being sent out to everyone. We didn't plan the OTA updates to be installed on a phone which had already been updated manually. Hopefully the OTA installer is smart enough to realize the update is present, but who knows.

07:41.00 | RyeBrye | The guy at t-mobile has this impression I think in his mind like they have some kind of pipe that they just shove things down |
07:41.02 | umdk1d3 | idk it sounds like a very interesting idea |
07:41.04 | jsherman | romainguy, do you know if screenlocking is intentionally not supposed to work in the eng build |
07:41.06 | RyeBrye | and they magically fall into the hole in the phone or something |
07:41.10 | jsherman | and only in user builds or something |
07:41.10 | frito | "incase i do not survive the incident |
07:41.18 | romainguy | jsherman: what eng build? |
07:41.28 | jsherman | er the default target |
07:41.40 | romainguy | he also wants to use keyboard, mouses and printers on his phone... |
07:41.41 | umdk1d3 | frito: i mean, imagine like an explosion or something |
07:41.41 | jsherman | is an "eng" type build as opposed to a "user" one |

07:41.54 | romainguy | jsherman: the open source release? |
07:41.58 | jsherman | yes |
07:42.06 | romainguy | it's probably normal |
07:42.12 | jsherman | ? |
07:42.48 | RyeBrye | romainguy - I want to use a bluetooth keyboard on mine - does that mean the bad guys are likely going to sieze my phone too? |
07:43.06 | romainguy | RyeBrye: if you use a CUPS printer with your phone, you're gonna die |
07:43.07 | frito | i dont think i would be concerned with my phone getting data of what is happening safe more than gettin my ass outta there and safe tbh |
07:43.11 | romainguy | or maybe I got confused :) |

07:43.45 | romainguy | ah the joys of public bug trackers |
07:43.46 | frito | indeed |
07:43.52 | RyeBrye | Yes - a better feature request would be being able to push the camera button in a special sequence of presses and have the phone turn into a hand grenade |
07:43.56 | RyeBrye | or at the very least a flash bomb |

07:44.54 | jsherman | lmfao |
07:45.29 | RyeBrye | "I want my phone to be more like the kitchenaid I just bought: 1: accept different attachments so I can mash potatoes or beat eggs 2: have a detachable bowl that is dishwasher safe..." |

07:45.52 | frito | i vote for #2!! |
07:47.26 | RyeBrye | Hmm... this guy wins for worst explanation for wanting shell access on the phone: |
07:47.33 | RyeBrye | "Doing everything on an emulator is a hassle. When I am on the road I want |
07:47.33 | RyeBrye | to be able to develop and test directly on the G1 without having to carry a |

07:48.04 | DarkriftX | A member of our Android Community (lgsilvaas), has just found instructions showing how to update your G1 without getting the over-the-air update. All you need is a MicroSD card to update to the new RC29 firmware. |
07:48.14 | DarkriftX | i like how they try to take credit for this |
07:48.19 | DarkriftX | it was first posted at xda-developers |
07:48.26 | DarkriftX | I am the one who posted it FIRST on androidcommunity |
07:48.40 | RyeBrye | Yeah, that's lame |
07:48.49 | frito | Should be able to attach, perhaps via USB or bluetooth, printers, |
07:48.49 | frito | scannners, and other such peripherals. Most important, initially, would be |
07:48.49 | frito | printers. |
07:48.51 | DarkriftX | i dont even want credit, but shit, give the credit to xda-devs |
07:48.52 | RyeBrye | but... apparently T-mobile might fry your phone |
07:48.54 | frito | buy a pc pls |
07:49.01 | RyeBrye | and Don't do it! You can't trust 3-rd party upgrades! |
07:49.09 | RyeBrye | Sheesh - I WISH you couldn't trust 3rd party upgrades |
07:49.11 | DarkriftX | google isnt 3rd party |
07:49.13 | RyeBrye | I know |
07:49.14 | DarkriftX | they are 4th party! |
07:49.17 | RyeBrye | btu that warning is such a joke |
07:49.23 | DarkriftX | i know, i laughed |
07:49.34 | romainguy | RyeBrye: they have a point, if you get the update from an untrusted source.... :) |
07:49.35 | DarkriftX | i can see some nerdy guy writing that while performing the upgrade |
07:49.36 | RyeBrye | if there was a legitimate reason to be worried about a 3rd party putting together a malicious update at this point, I would be overjoyed |
07:49.53 | DarkriftX | lol RyeBrye good point |
07:50.09 | RyeBrye | Yes, they probably haven't been trying to bang their way into as hard as the rest of us have |
07:50.17 | romainguy | look at it from their perspective |
07:50.35 | RyeBrye | They don't understand the signing process... etc. - I get that |
07:50.41 | romainguy | if they suddenly get a bunch of customers complaining that their phone is toast because they fucked up a manual update... |
07:51.18 | RyeBrye | It's true |
07:51.41 | RyeBrye | There is also a bug in the RC19 recovery mode that it only reads a certain kind of partition table |
07:51.56 | RyeBrye | (apparently) - I had to put it on a different micro SD card than the one that came with my phone to get it to work |
07:52.30 | RyeBrye | yeah, and I can understand T-mobile's approach... but the rollout speed for this update is ridiculously slow |

07:53.07 | DarkriftX | that or the updates are too publicly known lol |
07:53.20 | DarkriftX | maybe all OTA updates are like that but most ppl arent expecting them |
07:53.20 | RyeBrye | Yeah, that might be the case as well |
07:53.42 | frito | i would say it prob is |
07:53.43 | romainguy | RyeBrye: don't be impatient |
07:54.08 | romainguy | OTAing tons of phone over a brand new 3G network is probably not something they want to fuck up :) |
07:54.21 | romainguy | the new RC won't give you tons of cool new shiny features :) |
07:54.30 | RyeBrye | It gives the USB indicator though :) |
07:54.32 | frito | thing is theres too many of our type of users that bought this phone that enjoy tweaking and modding their stuff so its to be expected imo |
07:54.34 | RyeBrye | That's shiny enough |
07:55.07 | romainguy | RyeBrye: agreed |
07:55.12 | romainguy | but that's about it :) |
07:55.22 | romainguy | wait for the 1.x updates to get excites |
07:55.24 | romainguy | excited |
07:55.29 | romainguy | I have a cool feature for Home :p |
07:55.32 | frito | lol yeah after i updated mine i was like look rc29 oo usb on status bar ooo |
07:56.13 | RyeBrye | I think it might change the algorithm for how they move the battery indicator - the battery info reads the same, but when it's at 60 on the battery info it has a lot more green in the battery icon than it used to I think |
07:56.18 | RyeBrye | but I might be crazy |
07:56.26 | frito | is still waiting for stereo bluetooth and/or music sent to mono bluetooth headsets |
07:56.36 | DarkriftX | romainguy, which is why we hosted that update all over rapidshare, to take the heat off their 3g network ;) |
07:56.45 | romainguy | RyeBrye: the battery charge sensors suck :) |
07:56.50 | DarkriftX | make rs foot the bw bill lol |
07:56.57 | RyeBrye | The battery has surprisingly good live |
07:56.59 | RyeBrye | err life |
07:57.07 | romainguy | yes but the indicator is just a big fat lie |
07:57.09 | romainguy | (I exaggerate) |
07:57.11 | RyeBrye | It's just that half of that life happens to be from 10% to 0% :) |
07:57.20 | romainguy | like sometimes it's at 15% for me |
07:57.27 | romainguy | I reboot the phone and it's actually at 50% |
07:57.27 | frito | yeah it works good so long as you dont blast the brightness and be a dumb user |
07:57.35 | romainguy | (my MacBook Pro does the same for some reason) |
07:57.51 | frito | have you done a full discharge a few times? |
07:57.53 | romainguy | DarkriftX: glad it makes you guys feel powerful to do the update manually :) |
07:57.56 | jsherman | what does it mean for a device to be "provisioned" |
07:58.09 | DarkriftX | romainguy, probably using a calculation of current power to "guess" current battery left instead of checking it every 3 minutes |
07:58.14 | romainguy | frito: yes but... I develop all day long on my devices, so they keep being plugged/unplugged :) |
07:58.19 | RyeBrye | jsherman - it means you need to fed-ex it to me... if it's an engineering device |
07:58.22 | romainguy | jsherman: that you went through the setupwizard |
07:58.24 | frito | i had that same thing happening untill i killed the battery 2 times and recharged it and now my bat gauge seems to be alot more accurate |
07:58.32 | romainguy | without provisionning, things get werid |
07:58.32 | frito | gotcha |
07:58.32 | jsherman | what setup wizard? |
07:58.37 | romainguy | like the Home key not working etc |
07:58.41 | romainguy | it doesn't exist on git |
07:58.47 | romainguy | it's replaced by an automatic dummy app |
07:58.50 | jsherman | ugh that is what is messing everything up |
07:59.02 | romainguy | you can wipe your data |
07:59.05 | romainguy | that should fix the problem |
07:59.09 | jsherman | ? |
07:59.18 | RyeBrye | Yeah, the LiIon batteries have their own internal thing that you can help calibrate by getting them dead as a doornail |
07:59.20 | jsherman | didnt you say its not on git |
07:59.31 | romainguy | jsherman: but it has a replacement |
07:59.40 | jsherman | what does the replacement do? |
07:59.46 | romainguy | if you were using the emulator from before the git version, you might have stale data that does weird things |
07:59.53 | romainguy | it sets the provisioned flag |
07:59.59 | jsherman | er |
08:00.09 | romainguy | RyeBrye: yeah, when the manufacturer doesn't get cheap :) |
08:00.15 | jsherman | no the emulator im using was built with git |
08:00.20 | jsherman | and the data and system images |
08:00.23 | romainguy | but did you use one from the SDK before? |
08:00.32 | romainguy | on the same machine |
08:00.35 | jsherman | yeah |
08:00.38 | romainguy | yeah |
08:00.39 | romainguy | so wipe data |
08:00.45 | romainguy | or rm -Rf ~/.android |
08:00.46 | jsherman | but isn't the data image stored in data.img? |
08:00.50 | romainguy | no |
08:00.53 | romainguy | that's the base data image |
08:00.56 | jsherman | oh |

08:03.16 | RyeBrye | I assume that the 'for-testing' keys are also held secret and aren't in any repo anywhere? |

08:04.54 | jsherman | romainguy, it doesn't provision |

08:05.56 | jsherman | i don't have a G1 so i've never seen this setup wizard |
08:05.57 | romainguy | just what I said |
08:06.10 | romainguy | you just enter your Google login/password |
08:06.13 | RyeBrye | Mine was already provisioned when I got it for some random user |
08:06.16 | romainguy | a provision flag is set to 1 |

09:27.33 | ascii__ | i've got one more question you prob can answer...i have a couple of listviews and stuff in my application, when i rotate my device(open the keyboard), the lists clear - how can i avoid that? |
09:28.08 | muthu | save your state in onsaveinstancestate |
09:28.27 | muthu | and then reload them from bundle in oncreate |
09:32.07 | ascii__ | that means i have to save every variable in use to the bundle? |
09:32.27 | muthu | most of them would be autosaved |
09:32.42 | muthu | but if you lose state, then manually save them |

09:40.05 | ascii__ | yep i can, or yep i can't? :p |
09:40.37 | muthu | can't |
09:40.53 | muthu | use one of the bundle methods |
09:41.07 | muthu | putxxx |
09:41.43 | ascii__ | yea, thought so.. |
09:42.09 | muthu | big overhead.. so avoid bundling objects |
10:05.26 | ascii__ | okey, this is confusing me, so i have a onCreate() where i set listviews adapters and other stuff...when i open the keyboard, the onCreate() will be called again..is that why my list get reset? |
10:05.49 | ascii__ | or is the lists already empty before onCreate is called?ergo, it's a new instance of the activity.. |
10:06.16 | muthu | the activity is recreated.. so oncreate is called again |
10:06.30 | ascii__ | geez.. |
10:06.42 | ascii__ | thats a, excuse me, fuckin hazzel.. |
10:06.48 | muthu | hehe |
10:07.58 | ascii__ | that means i have to go through all me ArrayAdapters, Lists etc and make 'em Arrays, then save em to the bundle, and then check if they are there in the onCreate() method..? |
10:08.13 | muthu | yep |
10:08.46 | muthu | lists can maintain their state |
10:08.54 | muthu | not sure why your list is blanking out |
10:09.17 | muthu | ha, |

16:52.16 | coding1 | ah cool, is it necessary to get a phone to code? |
16:52.36 | commonsguy | no |

16:52.55 | commonsguy | most of us have only had phones in the past week or two |
16:53.06 | coding1 | oh |

16:53.47 | SamSerious | White? |
16:54.04 | neekers | isn't it white? i bought a black one |
16:54.16 | commonsguy | actually, i heard white was back at the shop due to paint-flaking problems |
16:54.24 | neekers | oh |
16:54.29 | commonsguy | black and 'bronze' (brown) should be available tho |
16:54.42 | neekers | i love my black g1, it is slick |
16:55.31 | SamSerious | mine is not.. creaking screen :( I checked brown and it feels solid |
16:55.47 | SamSerious | but it has back light problem |
16:56.01 | neekers | creaking screen? take it back..... |
16:56.07 | mmattice | SamSerious: I seriously (no pun intended) doubt the bronzes won't have the same problems |
16:56.21 | neekers | my screen does not creek |
16:56.29 | tmccrary | my bronze rocks |
16:56.32 | tmccrary | no creaking |
16:57.14 | SamSerious | Yeah. I checked at tmo store.. |
16:57.35 | SamSerious | they kept both on display. |

18:31.38 | frito | yea |
18:32.15 | frito | i think the only way to clear it back to default is to do a factory reset prolly |

18:35.29 | DarkriftX | yeah |
18:35.44 | DarkriftX | looks like it says anything from rc19-28 can handle that update |
18:35.54 | frito | err yea meant to say RC28 |
18:36.26 | frito | that is possible but if there are versions between RC19-28 they were never made public |
18:36.53 | DarkriftX | i dont like how they call them "RC" |
18:37.01 | WildCaterpillar | why is that? |
18:37.01 | DarkriftX | makes me think release candidate |
18:37.06 | frito | yep |
18:37.11 | cbeust_ | That's what they are |

18:37.14 | WildCaterpillar | is it not, in their mind? |
18:37.18 | cbeust_ | and that's why we call them that |
18:37.25 | DarkriftX | selling it as a beta seems to lower the value in my mind |
18:37.25 | frito | we are all beta testers |
18:37.36 | DarkriftX | yeah, that should be assumed though lol |

18:37.59 | DarkriftX | didnt buy anything yet |

18:38.32 | DarkriftX | its more about semantics then it is the fact that its actually a beta still. |
18:41.01 | og__ | can someone who is familiar with the notepadv1 tutorial... what i dont get is where the cursor adapter get attached to the notepad_list |
18:41.25 | cbeust_ | There is a setAdapter call somewhere |

19:08.46 | DarkriftX | lol |
19:10.01 | DarkriftX | found 4 users now all getting failure messages mounting sd during upgrade. all 4 are (or were) using the factory card (3 of them tried fat32 and fat16 and still failed). 3 of them have since tried a new card and the upgrade worked flawlessly |

19:12.00 | DarkriftX | good to know |
19:12.22 | coding1 | . |
19:12.28 | DarkriftX | good news is that is should NOT affect the "real" ota because from what we can tell that gets downloaded to /cache and not to the card |
19:12.34 | SamSerious | good? I ordered 8GB one even though I don't need it ATM |
19:12.59 | DarkriftX | well not good that it doesnt work, but good to know the pattern is being proven |
19:13.25 | SamSerious | Only if I could copy it to phone memory's cache |

19:16.48 | kslater | edge |
19:16.59 | kslater | gdsx: you? |
19:17.00 | DarkriftX | im saying the bootloader doesnt like the default 1g card that comes with the g1 |
19:17.06 | gdsx | hmm... dunno. I was on 3G |
19:17.20 | gdsx | DarkriftX: 1GB? |
19:17.26 | DarkriftX | the g1 can read it just fine, but the bootloader fails to mount it and cannot upgrade from that card |
19:17.35 | DarkriftX | yes |
19:17.53 | gdsx | ok. as cute as it might be, "1g" doesn't really make any sense |
19:18.22 | romainguy | just got my OTA \o/ |

19:18.44 | gdsx | DarkriftX: true |
19:19.12 | DarkriftX | i leave the b off because it always starts wars in the linux channel about bytes/bits for some reason |

19:21.24 | DarkriftX | i agree lol |
19:21.59 | wasabi | If you want case insensitivity, it should be implemented at the UI level, imo |
19:22.07 | wasabi | so. Linux should stay as it is. :) |
19:22.24 | cbeust_ | At the UI level? |
19:22.39 | lethalcode | Howdy folks - I'm working on a game where the main Activity spawns the GameActivity to start the game. |
19:22.40 | wasabi | Yes. Where you have a good text toolkit available. |
19:22.52 | wasabi | Not at the kernel, which should only concern itself with a filename being a string of bytes. |
19:23.18 | lethalcode | The GameActivity needs the contents of a file (That's currently at 1MB). |
19:23.34 | lethalcode | Each GameACtivity lasts maybe 1 minute, then goes back to the main screen. |
19:24.07 | lethalcode | If I load that 1MB into a HashMap, then pass it through to the GameActivity via Intent extra, does android clone the 1MB object, or just pass a reference? |
19:25.04 | DarkriftX | so can anyone with a g1 do me a favor in shell: ls /dev/mmc* |
19:25.39 | lethalcode | DarkriftX: No such file or directory, for me. |
19:25.50 | DarkriftX | do you have your sd card inserted? |
19:25.55 | lethalcode | Yup. |
19:26.14 | DarkriftX | what about: cat /etc/mountd |
19:26.17 | DarkriftX | i think thats it |
19:26.17 | lethalcode | Oh wait, I have UMS on. |
19:26.27 | DarkriftX | opens the emu to find out |
19:26.29 | lethalcode | Lemme disable it. |
19:26.32 | DarkriftX | k |
19:26.46 | SamSerious | No such file or directory |
19:27.05 | DarkriftX | i think thats the wrong file but im checking |
19:27.23 | DarkriftX | cat /etc/mountd.conf |
19:27.32 | DarkriftX | <PROTECTED> |
19:27.39 | romainguy | lethalcode: if it's in the same process, that might be ok |
19:28.13 | DarkriftX | ahhh, on emu, its in dev/block/, didnt even notice that before |
19:28.28 | lethalcode | romainguy: Same process, different Activity. So it's referencing the same object? |
19:28.33 | romainguy | it should |
19:28.41 | lethalcode | DarkriftX: Yup, I have /dev/block/mmcblk0{,p1} |
19:28.46 | romainguy | you can check by printing the object's identity |
19:28.50 | DarkriftX | hrmmmmm |
19:29.03 | lethalcode | romainguy: Perfect, thanks =). |
19:29.09 | DarkriftX | lethalcode, what does your /etc/mountd.conf say? mmcblk0 or mmcblk0pX |
19:29.13 | cbeust_ | wasabi: it's not the kernel's role, for sure, but it definitely belongs in the file system, not the UI |
19:29.40 | lethalcode | DarkriftX: block_device /dev/block/mmcblk0 // mount_point /sdcard // enable_ums true |
19:29.47 | DarkriftX | hrmmmmm |
19:29.53 | DarkriftX | that is odd |
19:30.11 | DarkriftX | actually, the initrd must be different |

21:22.53 | cbeust_ | A lot of us hope so :) |
21:23.17 | spikebike | I think the safest thing to say is unknown |
21:24.03 | spikebike | the market for g1 software is $0 or so |
21:24.10 | spikebike | but does look promising |
21:24.22 | spikebike | but a long way off from being larger than the iphone market |
21:24.22 | cbeust_ | You mean the current market |
21:24.42 | spikebike | ya |
21:24.47 | spikebike | the known one |
21:25.43 | spikebike | I think it would be unwise to quit your day job and become a g1 developer |
21:25.58 | spikebike | but certainly worth some time to get familiar with and program for |
21:26.01 | cbeust_ | I would call it Android developer, not G1 developers |
21:26.16 | DarkriftX | anyone here know much about the signing of files in the OTA update? |
21:26.27 | coding1 | G1? like the G-Force? |
21:26.35 | spikebike | cbeust that remains to be seen |
21:26.49 | cbeust_ | What you're writing on Android will work on other phones than the G1 |
21:26.57 | spikebike | maybe |
21:27.03 | spikebike | java promised the same thing ;-) |
21:27.09 | DarkriftX | i know nothign of it, but for example, would changing a line in a file "the red cat jumped over the blue ball" to "the blue cat jumped over the red ball" make a difference in the signature? |
21:27.15 | cbeust_ | Well, Java delivered pretty well |
21:27.18 | cbeust_ | and we plan to do the same |
21:27.24 | spikebike | darkrift I' |
21:27.31 | spikebike | d be shocked if not |
21:27.42 | DarkriftX | me to, but i was hoping |
21:27.44 | spikebike | cbeust the developers I've talked to disagree |
21:28.01 | spikebike | basically every phone has to be tested |
21:28.02 | cbeust_ | spikebike: ah, they have run their code on other Android phones than the G1? :) |
21:28.10 | spikebike | differing resolution, jvms, ram, etc. |
21:28.19 | cbeust_ | Ah you're talking about Java |
21:28.22 | spikebike | ya |
21:28.26 | cbeust_ | I've been developing in Java for 10+ years |
21:28.33 | coding1 | will Android run in Intel Atom ? |
21:28.35 | spikebike | write once, test everywhere ;-) |
21:28.38 | cbeust_ | JavaSE and JavaEE are very portable |
21:28.38 | cbeust_ | Java ME less so but still decent |
21:29.16 | cbeust_ | At any rate, our goal is certainly to make Android phone-agnostic |
21:29.19 | spikebike | but different hardware, buttons, keyboard (or lack of), screens, ram, etc can make a dig difference to an application |
21:29.26 | spikebike | cbeust undoubtedly |
21:29.31 | cbeust_ | so I stand by what I said: writing Android code will make your code run on different hardware |
21:29.52 | spikebike | agreed |
21:29.54 | cbeust_ | Yes spikebike, there is more work to be done to cover a few hardware things that don't exist on the G1 |
21:29.57 | cbeust_ | we're working on that |
21:30.13 | spikebike | and yes android could be ported to other chips like the atom |

21:33.52 | d0nets | is do a basic guitar tuner |
21:33.52 | tmccrary | you just can't do it through the official market yet |
21:33.55 | d0nets | and basic piano tuner |
21:34.00 | tmccrary | what about |
21:34.00 | d0nets | then have a pro versin of each to release in januar |
21:34.01 | d0nets | y |
21:34.03 | tmccrary | a tuna fish |
21:34.04 | coding1 | so we have 2 months to develo anything and start to sell |
21:34.05 | d0nets | for like .99 or 1.99 |
21:34.12 | d0nets | that includes more functionality |
21:34.21 | DarkriftX | i think that if almost every program is $2 or less, the authors will make a lot more money from mass purchases |
21:34.55 | DarkriftX | iphones and wm have too many apps for $30-$50 each and they dont sell that well |
21:35.04 | DarkriftX | too much for someone to pay for a little program on their phone |
21:35.40 | d0nets | right |
21:36.08 | d0nets | and you know what happened when i started comming accross those 30$ apps i wanted? |
21:36.11 | DarkriftX | whatshisname.... plusminus has a few games he is selling for $2 and I can see those selling pretty well |
21:36.19 | d0nets | i would (p word) them |
21:36.20 | DarkriftX | you found a warez channel on efnet |
21:36.39 | d0nets | exactly |
21:36.50 | DarkriftX | i know, thats what most do |
21:37.04 | DarkriftX | which is why i think $2 would scare away less ppl and make the author more in the long run |
21:37.11 | d0nets | right |
21:37.17 | d0nets | high fives |
21:37.28 | DarkriftX | which in turn would motivate them to make better stuff to make more money :) |
21:37.28 | d0nets | i mean if they do sell 600,000 phones |
21:37.39 | DarkriftX | meaning we see better apps all the time |
21:37.40 | d0nets | and i sold the pro version for 1.99 or .99 to 2000 people |
21:37.46 | d0nets | thats 2000-4000 $ to make |
21:37.48 | DarkriftX | yeah |
21:37.51 | elad1 | 1.99 not 2.00! |
21:37.59 | d0nets | oh yes |
21:38.00 | d0nets | lol |
21:38.09 | DarkriftX | vs $20 and getting 100 ppl |
21:38.14 | d0nets | right |
21:38.22 | d0nets | its one thing if the app whipes my ass for me |
21:38.36 | d0nets | but like dynolicious |
21:38.39 | andyross | So far the "most popular" apps in the market are showing 50k-250k downloads. So there's still a long way to go before any paid application sells 600k copies. |
21:38.41 | d0nets | i use it maybe once or twice |
21:38.44 | d0nets | and it was expensive |
21:39.06 | DarkriftX | major gps programs or something i can see being like $10 or something, but basic stuff, like an irc client, im program, little games should be less |
21:39.06 | d0nets | andyross i said 600k phones sold by the end of this year |
21:39.15 | d0nets | i was saying i fi could manage to sell to 2000 people |
21:39.35 | spikebike | I'm hoping that the silly simple stuff stays free |
21:39.36 | d0nets | hell yea |
21:39.41 | d0nets | and i would pay 10$ for like tom tom or somethin |
21:39.53 | DarkriftX | thats how i do my domain sales on my site, I try to keep them as low as I can and just hope for more customers to make up for it |
21:39.55 | spikebike | seems insane to pay for irc, irssi, ssh, etc. |

23:09.10 | romainguy | yes |
23:09.15 | eleftherios | romainguy: how? |
23:09.24 | romainguy | you can use the Eclipse plugin, the adb command line tool or a web site |

23:09.36 | eleftherios | ah thanks |
23:10.18 | coding1 | May I play Crysis in Android phone? |
23:10.26 | tweakt | lol |
23:10.36 | DarkriftX | the website must have a hard link to the file (eg http://domain.com/file.apk) because other links will not work (eg http://domain.com/download.php?file=file.apk) |
23:10.39 | jsherman | so the maps app doesn't even try to connect to google |
23:10.47 | jsherman | when run in the git version |
23:12.06 | romainguy | DarkriftX: even when the dynamic link returns the correct mime type? |
23:12.15 | DarkriftX | im pretty sure |
23:12.31 | DarkriftX | i set my mime types with dynamic downlaod components and they still failed |
23:12.42 | Ramblurr | How exatly does bindSerivce() work? the connection seems to happen asyncronously.. because i can't bind and start using the service immedietly |
23:12.49 | romainguy | I really don't see how using a dynamic link would fail |
23:12.55 | DarkriftX | i dont either |
23:13.14 | DarkriftX | i have 3 download components and 2 of them support adding mime types, neither worked on g1's |
23:13.49 | *** join/#android Laz (n=Laz1@28.184.119.70.cfl.res.rr.com) |
23:14.11 | DarkriftX | adding mime type to htaccess file fixed hard links though, so i know i have the right mime type |
23:15.28 | jsherman | would be very grateful if a google dev happened to paste the output of 'grep -srnH lock_asset' in the maps code directory |
23:15.45 | DarkriftX | lol |
23:16.17 | cbeust_ | You don't need to set a special mime type for .apk, we take care of this in the download manager |
23:16.17 | DarkriftX | and while they are at it, they should paste the info needed to generate the signatures needed to edit files in the OTA update |
23:16.39 | DarkriftX | .apk files failed on the g1 until a mime type was set |
23:16.41 | eleftherios | is there another way known way to unlock G1? (other than giving your imei # to these guys and paying $30)? |
23:16.47 | DarkriftX | gave unknown application type error or something |
23:17.04 | DarkriftX | but as soon as i added the mime type my static links started working |
23:17.18 | DarkriftX | eleftherios, requesting a key from tmo if you are a customer |
23:18.10 | jsherman | is the android-internals group broken? |
23:18.17 | jsherman | i sent an email awhile ago and it still hasn't shown up |
23:18.21 | romainguy | jsherman: Google Maps code is not open source, we can't give you that information |
23:18.23 | cbeust_ | I believe we are deprecating this group |
23:18.44 | romainguy | we are |
23:18.53 | DarkriftX | cbeust_/romainguy if one if you can prove this wrong i would be really happy :) that would allow me to re-use my old download method instead of forum topics |
23:19.15 | eleftherios | DarkriftX: not a customer, got the phone as a gift |
23:19.22 | eleftherios | I am not in the US |
23:19.25 | DarkriftX | yeah, so thats all yuo can do |
23:20.20 | jsherman | i just want to run maps on the opensource base |
23:20.24 | jsherman | sigh |
23:20.27 | romainguy | I understand |
23:20.35 | romainguy | but we still cannot give you private information |
23:20.42 | jsherman | er |
23:20.46 | jsherman | can you tell me if |
23:20.48 | jsherman | this is something that |
23:20.54 | jsherman | intentionally does not work |
23:21.01 | romainguy | I have no idea, but I highly doubt it |
23:21.06 | jsherman | hmm ok |
23:21.07 | romainguy | we ship Maps in the SDK after all |
23:21.18 | coding1 | does Ajax works in Android? |
23:21.18 | romainguy | again, the source tree has completely changed in git |
23:21.27 | romainguy | it probably broke a bunch of stuff |
23:21.29 | romainguy | coding1: yes |
23:21.35 | eleftherios | DarkriftX: thank you |
23:21.50 | coding1 | romainguy: full? prototype, extjs, mootools? |
23:23.22 | DarkriftX | a mootools feature on one of my sites works in the emu browser |
23:24.32 | jsherman | about the build system |
23:24.45 | jsherman | it seems like there are two |
23:24.57 | jsherman | i fixed a couple more issues |
23:25.14 | jsherman | but again I don't know what is an appropriate patch because I don't understand the build system |
23:25.22 | jsherman | it seems like things can get pulled in in two different ways |
23:25.34 | jsherman | either by being included in PRODUCT_PACKAGES in the product.mk |
23:25.48 | jsherman | or by defining some LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS = that's included by the particular target |
23:25.52 | *** join/#android wastrel (n=wastrel@nylug/member/wastrel) |
23:26.08 | jsherman | and it seems like half of the things are pulled in one way, half are pulled in another |
23:26.09 | jsherman | why? |
23:26.24 | jsherman | is this just leftover stuff from switching between two systems? |
23:26.41 | jsherman | or is there a reason to have two different ways to do things? |
23:28.30 | coding1 | do i need to know java to program for android? |
23:28.36 | DarkriftX | yes |
23:29.33 | coding1 | may i avoid to learn java? |
23:29.37 | neekers | coding1: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html |
23:29.52 | coding1 | is java similar to php? |
23:29.56 | neekers | no |
23:30.03 | romainguy | jsherman: no, the Android.mk files haven't changed |
23:30.23 | jsherman | ok |
23:30.30 | romainguy | ask questions on the mailing list |
23:30.32 | jsherman | what's with the two ways to do things then? |
23:30.34 | jsherman | ok |
23:31.15 | coding1 | is java similar to c++ ? |
23:31.32 | neekers | not really, it's clsoest to c# |
23:31.36 | *** join/#android andyross (n=andy@static-71-245-107-194.ptldor.fios.verizon.net) |
23:31.40 | neekers | closest |
23:32.20 | neekers | java has memory management and does not have pointers, which are things you have to deal with in c++ |
23:32.40 | cbeust_ | To be more specific, it has pointers but not pointer arithmetic |
23:34.22 | neekers | coding1: learning java will only make you a better programmer |
23:36.16 | andyross | True enough. Although there are a whole lot of bad habits Java will teach you too. I guess that's true of everything. |
23:37.38 | cbeust_ | If you're programming in C++, you have probably acquired all the bad habits that can possibly exist :) |
23:39.43 | andyross | No, Java's are different. Java's libraries (com.somewhere.package.subpackage.ReallLongSymbolStringFascadeFactory) and typical block nesting (class A { void F() { try { synchronized(L) { ... }}}) lead to some of the longest lines I've seen anywhere. |
23:40.16 | cbeust_ | That's more a style question, it's pretty easy to reduce line lengths |
23:40.27 | cbeust_ | But yes, Java is verbose |
23:40.32 | tmccrary | yeah, for a reason |
23:40.39 | andyross | Likewise C++ programmers aren't normally in the habit of writing seven lines of markup documentation and two lines of comment convention above every private variable. And I count "style" in the list of bad habits, FWIW. |
23:40.41 | tmccrary | I'd rather have verbose code than stuff like _ca |
23:40.59 | cbeust_ | tmccrary++ |
23:42.22 | andyross | Symbol names should be verbose where they're required to be verbose, generally because they are used in areas of code that aren't on the same screen at the same time. Java makes that more likely, therefore you need verbose symbols. Other languages can be terser because, well, they're terser to begin with. Lisp is especially good at that. |
23:42.50 | DarkriftX | its funny if i look at my sites visitor map the visitors draw a line from north california to new york and rarely stray from that point (like florida is rare, same with seattle) |
23:43.06 | DarkriftX | i wonder if that has to do with the availability of G1's in certain areas |
23:43.08 | andyross | Look at some of Paul Graham's Arc examples, like the hacker news web application, for some really good examples of readable-because-it's-terse code. |
23:43.10 | cbeust_ | I would use a different word than "good", but point taken |
23:43.32 | cbeust_ | Er, no, Paul Graham's code is not exactly readable. Arc was very underwhelming too. |
23:43.33 | coding1 | How long takes to learn Java? 1 week? |
23:43.45 | tmccrary | depends, how much programming experience do you have? |
23:43.49 | andyross | Meh. I liked it. And I read a lot of code. But I guess there's some room for taste. |
23:43.54 | cbeust_ | 1 week to learn, a lifestyle to master :) |
23:44.03 | coding1 | 10 years coding in ASP.net PHP |
23:44.07 | tmccrary | ouch |
23:44.11 | cbeust_ | andyross: I think he could be a good coder if he didn't such an elitist attitude |
23:44.12 | tmccrary | There is no hope for you |
23:44.13 | andyross | You can come up to speed in Java about as fast as in anything else, actually. It's got a very soft learning curve. |
23:44.19 | tmccrary | ;) j/ |
23:44.20 | tmccrary | k |
23:44.36 | tmccrary | Java is an easy language to learn, especially the basics |
23:44.40 | tmccrary | take things one step at a time |
23:44.56 | tmccrary | I'd say six months to be general proficient and have a decent understanding of the basics |
23:45.04 | tmccrary | with serious use/study anyway |
23:45.38 | coding1 | what if i ditch Java and i go directly to code Android? |
23:45.50 | cbeust_ | coding1: android is in Java |
23:45.50 | DarkriftX | erm..... |
23:45.52 | tmccrary | uh |
23:45.55 | cbeust_ | we don't support native code |
23:45.56 | romainguy | Java *language* |
23:46.12 | tmccrary | Java is much easier than native programming with embedded devices, at least from a learning standpoint |
23:46.25 | tmccrary | you will be insulated from many details and you can go straight to doing useful stuff |
23:46.33 | tmccrary | i.e. less plumbing |

23:51.46 | languish | nice, for some reason some areas are having insane outages, including voice service |
23:51.52 | languish | currently we only have edge |
23:52.03 | Aleksey | yeah edge |
23:52.03 | Aleksey | here |

23:55.03 | Aleksey | nope |
23:55.04 | SamSerious | I like Voice dialing. Works perfect :) |
23:55.46 | languish | yeah the voide dialing is cool, except for entries I have that have a few consonants as the first few letters |

23:56.09 | languish | like using peoples nicks/nicknames for their entry |
23:56.10 | donomo | how do i create a new socket? (im trying to read the assigned IP address). here is my attempt, and error, http://pastie.org/305657 |
23:56.38 | michaelnovakjr__ | donomo: what are you trying to accomplish/ |
23:56.40 | romainguy | did you ask for the INTERNET permission? |
23:56.44 | cbeust_ | Did your app request the INTERNET permission? |
23:56.47 | michaelnovakjr__ | yea you need that |
23:56.51 | donomo | oh maybe thats it heh. |
23:56.56 | michaelnovakjr__ | :) |
23:57.03 | michaelnovakjr__ | its not the best error message :) |
23:57.07 | DarkriftX | languish, 499 members |
23:57.11 | cbeust_ | Yeah sorry about that |
23:57.12 | donomo | i'll say :) |
23:57.43 | michaelnovakjr__ | plusminus documented it on his forums, so at least it is searchable |
23:58.19 | Aleksey | languish, you cant long press on picture |
23:58.21 | Aleksey | only message |
23:58.25 | SamSerious | Think I'll grab some java books. I'm not a programmer but I'd love to learn some Android programming. |
23:58.28 | Aleksey | and that results in.. Show Slideshow |
23:58.41 | donomo | im getting a different problem now, but i think im past the socket creation error. thanks! |
23:58.46 | cbeust_ | SamSerious: That's great to hear |
23:58.57 | michaelnovakjr__ | romainguy: onContextMenuClosed.... when that method is called is the context menu closing or already closed |
23:59.06 | romainguy | no idea |
23:59.07 | DarkriftX | ive been tossing the idea around myself but im not good at following through with new languages |
23:59.10 | romainguy | check out the source code |
23:59.17 | DarkriftX | i always learn enough to fix what im working on and then give up :( |
