00:04.21Dammokay, I have to ask... how does my G1 know my location by my Wifi
00:04.36Dammall my wifi has in it is 'Seattle, WA' as my location and my email address
00:04.41Dammthat's so puzzling
00:04.47DammI'm not talking a large blue blob
00:04.57Dammit's showing the radius of my wifi as the blue blob and it's tiny
00:05.10RyeBryeDamm - The NSA?
00:05.19DammRyeBrye, seriously i'm thinking that.
00:05.33tech9inerpolls for raised hands of those whom have tried tethering g1's to laptops?
00:05.41RyeBryeDamm - so it's more specific than just geolocation based on your wifi's public IP?
00:05.45danfuzzi think it makes associations between wifi macids and gps when both are available
00:05.56danfuzzunsure though
00:06.04DammRyeBrye, my public IP doesn't know more then my geoip
00:06.08Dammwhich is the greater seattle area
00:06.48RyeBryedanfuzz - and then it sends both those values to the NSA... I think I saw it in the source under stalkTerroristWifiUsers( ) ;)

00:09.36Dammat one point I stored my lat/long in my blog
00:09.41Dammbut I haven't done that in ages.
00:16.09Guest47569any body have info on unpacking a .apk
00:16.46danfuzzit's just a zipfile
00:17.05danfuzzso: unzip blort.apk
00:17.06Guest47569use it with winzip?
00:17.10Guest47569or 7zip
00:17.40danfuzzi don't use windows, but anything that can read standard zipfiles should work
00:18.41Guest47569ok im really new at this but im diving in... how do i open .dex and other files
00:19.17danfuzzdex is the executable format. you don't generally open it, but you could always hexdump it
00:19.26danfuzzor use the "dexdump" tool
00:19.30geisti think dex files are actually random data, used to give you the illusion of actually running something on the device
00:19.33danfuzzwhat are you trying to do?
00:19.37Andomicis there a workaround that would allow me to stream online media that uses flash?
00:19.48geistin reality, dalvik knows what you want and directly inserts it into your brain
00:19.52Guest47569ok the g1 came out with the tetherbit
00:19.54Guest47569bit

00:20.02Guest47569anywho
00:20.12danfuzzheh, geist
00:20.19Guest47569rc30 came out and aparently its not working anymore
00:20.43danfuzzsorry, i can't help you there
00:21.05Guest47569blehh... thanks  anyways
00:21.31Guest47569all i really wanna know how to do is open the .apk so i can see how the guy coded it
00:21.54Guest47569just some kind of something so i can see how it works
00:23.39danfuzzwell you won't find source code
00:23.53danfuzzbut dexdump can show you the disassembly
00:24.07danfuzzyou'll have to learn dalvik bytecode, though
00:24.35danfuzzthat's documented in the source tree in <platform/dalvik/docs>
00:27.49RyeBryeI write my stuff straight in dalvik bytecode anyway
00:28.14danfuzzrock on!
00:28.22RyeBryewell... maybe not :) But I thought about it :)
00:28.31danfuzzaww
00:28.44RyeBryemaybe I'll write a Hello World or something

00:29.07danfuzzevery time someone codes in dalvik bytecode, an angel gets his wings
00:35.33tech9ineris there ANY work arounds for downloading via 3g files unrestricted.. ? or is this practically impossible without major hacks?
00:36.07tech9ineris still taken aback that g1 has such restrictive net access
00:36.22RyeBryeI think it just needs to have something in the system registered to be able to handle the MIME type - so talking to the people who write a file manager like Glance and asking them to register file handlers for stuff would probably do it
00:36.41RyeBryeI think the reason they don't have it just download arbitrary files is because the system was designed to not require a file manager

02:00.37Dammtoo many apps open
02:00.38Dammrestart it
02:01.33Hiro2any other reason?
02:01.42Hiro2and btw no apps will install on sd card right? so there's always a limit of how much app we can download?
02:02.05Dammclear your browser cache
02:02.10Dammand no you cannot install apps on your sd card
02:02.48KNY(yet)
02:03.02DammKNY, I'll believe it when I see it.
02:03.23Hiro2how do i clear cache?
02:03.23RyeBryeI think it will be a while until that happens
02:03.29KNYI don't think it's a lie or anything, I just won't be holding my breath
02:03.39KNYHiro2, browser settings
02:03.44mib_cufg4xanyone in manhattan up for yakitori and drinks around st marks? bs over android, like whatever
02:03.46mib_cufg4xs/like/life
02:03.47DammKNY, pretty much what you just said is my opinion
02:04.11Hiro2KNY: thank you
02:04.36RyeBryeI think what will happen is that future android phones will have a decent amount of internal flash, so nobody else will care except for G1 users
02:05.07mib_cufg4xthat's just cruel to g1 users
02:05.10Hiro2mib: wow yakitori sounds very good right now...
02:05.13DammRyeBrye, the more NAND ram you have the more power it consumes
02:05.25DammRyeBrye, so if you have 512meg you have a lesser battery life
02:05.38d03boyhm
02:05.41KNYDamm, less than the G1? does it have enough juice to boot? ;)
02:06.40DammKNY, the G1 has 256meg? I think
02:06.44DammI forget
02:06.51KNYDamm, that was a rip on the G1's battery life

02:07.45tech9inerugh..
02:08.00DammI reached 6days standby on my Sony Ericsson Z750a
02:08.08Dammhowever my G1... lasts 2-days tops
02:08.21tech9inerso mates.. htf does one get all ones data from one g1 to a replacement g1.. /me was asking 2 days here for true backup..
02:08.24RyeBryeDamm - you get 2 days? WTF? What are you doing to get such awesome battery life?
02:08.35tech9ineri just swapped out my phone & lotsa contacts & call logs etc are all gone..
02:08.36RyeBryeDamm - Mine wont last more than overnight if i don't have it plugged in
02:08.39DammRyeBrye, 0 talk time... only use it for text
02:08.51RyeBryeI have brightness on 0 too
02:08.58tech9inerhtf does one move  A L L  data over to new g1 from old g1 please?
02:09.02Dammwifi is turned off
02:09.07RyeBryeALthough I think some piece of shit app is making my GPS be polled constantly
02:09.10Dammno background apps running cept messaging
02:09.19RyeBryeI can't figure out what the hell is doing it - I think it might be pintail
02:09.30Dammgps should be off unless the app is in foreground
02:09.31Dammi thought
02:09.39RyeBryeYeah, you would htink
02:09.46RyeBryeRight now it's not doing it
02:10.10RyeBryebut I completely reloaded my phone and I haven't launched pintail on it yet
02:10.30DammI barely have anything on mine cept a few games
02:10.32Dammunloaded Locale
02:10.45RyeBryeLocale is a cool idea
02:10.46Dammvibrate + ring at the highest volume, all I get is nagios text messages
02:10.58Dammyeah I was trying to track down what was causing my phone to not wake me at night
02:11.06Dammjust switched nagios to send to my gmail instead
02:11.17Dammi may hard reset it, and create a custom gmail just for nagios
02:11.36Dammgmail = faster then mms/text.
02:11.56RyeBryeyour nagios is sending SMS through an email gateway?
02:11.57Dammand it works over wifi/etc
02:12.04Dammyep
02:12.07RyeBryeYeah, that is slow
02:12.21RyeBryeSMS from a straight up SMSC gateway is super fast - but it costs per each message you send
02:13.09RyeBryeI'm working on an on-call notification system for doctors right now and we use SMS as one of the notfication methods... it's so fast that we can get replies up on the screen in the ED before the doctors phone has even registered it is done sending the message
02:13.17RyeBryeI was amazed to see it work that fast
02:14.17Dammwell it's in a datacenter
02:14.24Dammso to a SMSC isn't really worth while
02:14.33unix_infidelRyeBrye: heh, as compared to other messaging protocols that operate on basic IP ;-P where the lag is an extra 100ms.
02:14.36RyeBryeYeah, doing straight email make sense
02:14.40unix_infideland 100x cheaper.
02:14.50RyeBryeunix_infidel - you are right
02:15.01Dammwell we have unlimited text/mms
02:15.05Dammso we don't care about cost
02:15.21Dammcompany ponied up a bunch of G1's with 5k minutes and unlim data/text/mms
02:15.22RyeBryeunix_infidel - but we don't buy the phones for the doctors, and sms is a lot easier to support across all phones than IP-based stuff
02:15.25unix_infidelDamm: he's setting up a system, which will require cost of setting up a messaging service.
02:15.34Hiro2mib: it'll be 1+ japanese friend if i go, lol
02:15.49Hiro2ah he's not here
02:15.51Dammunix_infidel, honestly i don't think i've ever done to an SMSC... there's usually a modem involved and dialing up
02:15.56RyeBryeunix_infidel - the cost of each message could be 100x higher than it is, and it still would beirrelevant
02:16.01Dammand it's just not available on non 250+ line accounts with t-mobile
02:16.09Dammif memory serves
02:16.26DammI forget what the service is called off the top of my head, but it's a 9600 baud modem that you just dialup to and send a text message thru
02:16.42RyeBryeYeah, we outsource our sms stuff though - so we don't have the smsc connection ourselves
02:17.18RyeBryeSMS isn't the end-all be-all of the messaging system either - it's just one method
02:17.19unix_infidelRyeBrye: but that's the banality of telecom.
02:17.20*** join/#android Dougie187 (n=doug@68.35.245.156)
02:17.30unix_infidelsimilar to email.
02:17.55RyeBryeyeah
02:18.31RyeBryebut... anyway... the original point was - SMS can be very fast if you aren't using the email gateways, but unless you really need it to be as fast as it can be the cost really doesn't justify it
02:19.04RyeBrye$0.05 per message for < 1 sec or $0.00 per message for ??? time
02:19.07DammRyeBrye, T-Mobile's pretty crappy when it comes to SMS though, it can come 8hours late even from another T-mobile Customer

02:19.37unix_infidelRyeBrye: that's if you're outsourcing, like you are...
02:19.44Dammtruthfully i'd stick it on my Z750a but there's no point after i set it to gmail
02:20.28RyeBryeunix_infidel - yeah, I suppose smsc would be even cheaper if you did it yourself... but this is still a project in its early phases
02:20.58Dammsadly that was my first project at this job I have
02:21.00Dammroll out nagios
02:21.07unix_infidelRyeBrye: i'm under the impression that high availability messaging will be scooped under the medical devices umbrella.
02:21.14Dammit was like new to them, because they never had nagios
02:21.16unix_infidelif you say you didnt get the page, you'll be accountable.
02:21.29DammI can't imagine the thought of a company not having nagios
02:21.40unix_infidelno more, the carrier effed up, or my device is unreliable.
02:21.40Dammif you buy 2 F5 BigIP's, and you don't have nagios?
02:21.42RyeBryeunix_infidel - Yeah, that's why sms isn't the end-all be-all of the messaging system... each specialty has different requirements and we have fallback methods
02:21.59unix_infidelRyeBrye: which is the wrong approach entirely.
02:22.07unix_infidelthat's like saying, lets have multiple crappy encryption methods.
02:22.37Hiro2tech9iner: ping
02:22.39RyeBryeunix_infidel - having a strong encyrption doesn't matter if the client on the other end refuses to use it
02:22.43Hiro2tech9iner: how did you get a new G1?
02:22.49unix_infidel</pontificatingaboutmedicine2point0>
02:23.01RyeBryeunix_infidel - Doctors don't like to be told how to do their jobs...
02:23.18unix_infidelRyeBrye: unless they are told how to do their jobs.
02:23.25RyeBrye:)
02:24.30RyeBryeunix_infidel - if you saw the current systems they use, you'd probably cry
02:24.41unix_infidelRyeBrye: i'm well aware.
02:24.51tech9inerHiro2, ordered it from tmo?
02:25.02RyeBryeunix_infidel - just picture an ED room with a person with a binder with about 3-dozen sheets of paper all in different formats listing who is on call for which specialty...
02:25.18RyeBryeand that's for the LUCKY ones that have it organized into 1 binder
02:25.26Hiro2tech9iner: did you get a replacement? or just one G1?
02:25.27unix_infidelRyeBrye: the words thumb tack come to mind.
02:25.34RyeBryeYeah, no joke
02:25.45tech9inerHiro2, oh wait.. u mean how 2nd replacement?.. called & bitched them out daily since 2nd day i had it 2.5 wks back.. have huge documentation of all tmo's shortcomings & g1's eccentricities mate..
02:26.23Hiro2tech9iner: I'm still under 14 days since I got it, do you think I can get a new one if I bitch them?
02:26.27tech9inerHiro2, new g1 in box.. then replacement only.. they literally sent me just the phone.. no battery.. no cover.. no micro sd.. phone only..
02:26.55tech9inerHiro2, with legitimate whines of course.. id get a new one in 73 days if need be..
02:27.02Hiro2tech9iner: I wonder if it's refurbished
02:27.22RyeBryeMy one that I bought new was obviously at least used once before - it was already activated and had some weird gmail account already paired with it
02:27.27RyeBryeI bought it online
02:27.31Hiro2tech9iner: Pm?

02:27.36tech9inerdown
02:28.09wastrelhi
02:28.22tech9inerHiro2, suspect it is refurb'd mate.. they warned me.. the only way they assure brand new replacements?.. is if one ships phone to them in orig box.. THEN they ship new r&r.. i bitched them out bout that too hehe
02:29.03RyeBryetech9iner - my "New in box" wasn't even "new in box" (see my comment above - it was already paired with some strange gmail account)
02:29.17Hiro2ByeBrye: that sucks, I guess I should think I'm fortunate?
02:29.26tech9inerwtf tmobile???? its been on street for days & you cant send me brand new boxed r&r when my 1st g1 had reset mid call probs on 3rd day of use??.. 'sir if you asked us to send replacement then let u return rma phone.. no gaurantees its new' omfg..

04:13.13tech9inersuch a waste of good community..
04:13.40Leedsfnordg1: it's certainly the case in other phones - not so much that it lasts longer as it lets the charging circuitry calibrate against your actual phone/battery, rather than an assumed 'average'

04:14.41tech9inerfnordg1, last clarification mate.. is there no way to rsync to laptop?.. then restore from said laptop to rma g1?
04:14.44Leedsfor example, on my old Palm, it tended to last a *long* time on 1% or 0% - because the battery wasn't really as empty as it thought
04:15.06unix_infideldefine:"*long*"
04:15.12wastrelweeks
04:15.26wastrelsorry, wishful thinking :]
04:15.54unix_infideli dunno, if the battery life issue with the G1 is simply a software bug, or a calibration bug, it seems like a high priority bugfix is in order.
04:16.02unix_infidelmaybe not as big as a root bugfix, but along the same lines.
04:16.13fnordg1not unless you have root

06:02.43p_quarleswell Linux does have some memory handling advantages over at least XP; but ultimately Eclipse crashing is an Eclipse problem, not strictly the OS's issue
06:03.07d03boyp_quarles, whats eclipse supposed to do if its not given access to any memory?
06:03.13d03boyeat itself?
06:03.50p_quarlesd03boy: generally, it should tell the user that it's out of memory
06:03.59d03boytrue
06:04.08RyeBryeand then tell you to change the ini file and up the Xmx
06:04.31d03boyRyeBrye, i have paging turned off though...
06:04.48RyeBrye?
06:04.51d03boymy os is not allowed to use swap
06:04.59RyeBryeSo, what does that have to do with eclipse?
06:05.02RyeBryeIt runs in a VM
06:05.07d03boythe vm has no more memory
06:05.16RyeBryeWell, then when it runs out, it bombs
06:05.35RyeBryeand tell you "the workspace has run out of memory because eclipse eats RAM like a fat kid eats donuts - would you like to quit?"
06:05.54RyeBryeOr maybe a different message depending upon your localization
06:06.08p_quarlesRyeBrye: I go with the classics: "lp0 on fire"
06:07.03RyeBryed03boy - how did you determine your Xmx setting for eclipse?
06:07.24d03boyi didnt
06:07.27RyeBryeok
06:07.49d03boya message popped up on my computer saying windows was out of virtual memory
06:07.52d03boyand 2 seconds later eclipse dies
06:08.39RyeBryeHmm... That shouldn't really happen unless I suppose it was trying to grow its heap because windows lied to it when it started about how much memory it would be able to grab - but I've not had that problem because I don't use windows
06:09.51RyeBryeYou coudl modify it to make Xmx and Xms the same so it doesn't grow or shrink its heap and just grabs it all at the startup
06:10.45d03boyi wasnt even running anything
06:10.51d03boyjust using the editor in eclipse
06:10.59d03boything eats memory like crazy

06:59.59Leedshave you noticed from the docs that android supports a device with a tricoder attachment being used on the death star?
07:00.00ionstormlike the notification bar
07:01.18Leedseh, afk
07:03.11ionstormsome interesting info http://www.synaptics.com/solutions/technology/gestures/egr
07:03.44RyeBryeYeah, but that doesn't say anything about the specific hardware in the G1
07:03.48ionstormim pretty sure all their touch screens are multitouch capable, if the g1 uses synaptics then i think its capable
07:04.01ionstormdoes it use synaptics?
07:04.17RyeBryeIt uses the synaptics driver - but that doesn't necessarily mean they use synaptics hardware
07:04.30RyeBryeI have a touch screen that's not my synaptics that I use the synaptics driver for
07:04.36RyeBryes/my/by/
07:05.54RyeBryeI think having a multitouch screen would be such a big selling feature that they would have been bonkers to not mention it
07:06.36ionstormhttp://www.cellfanatic.com/2008/10/02/t-mobile-g1-touchscreen-powered-by-synaptics im not sure if this is regarding the hardware or the driver
07:06.39ionstormor both
07:08.16RyeBryesounds like it is talking about the hardware there
07:08.32ITechJunkieHey guys, has anyone figured out a way to get Orb working with shoutcast tv?
07:10.45ionstormim pretty sure its just not programmed in, i think it will be added to android in the future, they are probably coming up with ideas for gestures
07:11.06RyeBryeIt sounds like the gestures are done in the hardware not the software
07:11.19Davinmeh... android is incomplete.. but not that incomplete =P
07:11.23RyeBryeEGR gives customers the option to enable single-finger gestures (i.e., Tap, Double Tap, Pinch, Press, and Flick) as well as multi-finger gestures (e.g., Pinch) directly from Synaptics' touch module. No additional recognition software is required on the host processor to implement these gestures.
07:12.19spikebikeryebrye so that means what?
07:12.24spikebikeand what is EGR?
07:13.21ionstormEnhanced Gesture Recognition
07:13.37ionstormhttp://www.synaptics.com/solutions/technology/gestures/egr
07:14.07RyeBryeIt means that it sounds like IF the screen in the G1 has it, the gestures would be done at the hardware level and passed to the host
07:14.32RyeBryewhich seems a little od
07:14.33RyeBryed
07:15.25spikebikeI have to say that in general many of the value add features in the embedded space do not end up implemented
07:15.37spikebikeI'm not sure if it's just the cost of implementing or licensing
07:16.00spikebikei.e. bitblt in the cpu, jazelle for java acceleration, secure mode, etc.
07:16.26spikebikebut I'd love to hear that the chip in the g1 has EGR, did the g1 bgreakdown include the list of chips in the g1?
07:16.41Davingeneraly speaking... its usualy due to the footprint of said feature... thats probably not the case in the G1 tho
07:16.43RyeBryethe EGR is on the touchscreen
07:17.04spikebikeegr is in the g1 touchscreen?
07:17.33RyeBryeOh, not sure if it is - but if it was anywhere it'd be in the touchscreen
07:17.36Davinegr is a feature of the touchscreen...  not the g1 chipset
07:17.57spikebikeok, but is egr a feature of the g1 touchscreen?
07:18.07Davinunknown.. but unlikely
07:18.33Davinon an unrelated note... hows chromes "plugin" support?
07:18.47unix_infidelchrome or G1 browser.
07:18.54ionstormegr is in the screen to have the ability of any of those gestures
07:18.58ionstormit said it itself
07:19.02Davingood point... g1 browser
07:19.07ionstormflick tap double tap etc
07:19.40Davinhave a cool idea, unrelated to my current project... a "tilt to scroll" option
07:20.02RyeBryeThat could be cool
07:20.04Davinwould be great while im googleing in the car
07:20.12RyeBryeif there was some way to indicate you wanted to use it or not
07:20.36Davinyea... would have to be an option to enable... cus it would just be annoying sometimes
07:20.42RyeBryemaybe tilt to scroll if you are pushing the camera button or something
07:20.50unix_infidela zoom gesture like those on synaptics touchpads would be nice.
07:21.12RyeBryeI don't know what ChiralRotate is - but it sounds exotic
07:21.46Davinit sounds like something you might catch from an unsavory one night stand...
07:21.58RyeBrye"Synaptics excels in gestures and multi-touch technology, and has a growing library of solutions that can be integrated in our human interfaces. Enhanced Gesture Recognition (EGR), Flick, Two-finger Flick, ChiralMotion™, and ChiralRotate™ all put new functionality at the user’s fingertips. "
07:22.46RyeBryeIt's kind of interesting to think about the Newton now in todays technology landscape... I wonder if a handwriting-recognition based device would ever do well
07:23.03Davinehh... think "palm"
07:23.03RyeBryeI think the answer is "probably not"
07:23.21RyeBryePalm never tried handwritng recognition, they licensed Grafiti
07:23.51Davinits an awfull similar concept tho =P
07:24.00RyeBryeThe newton you would just write like normal and it would recognize it
07:24.13Davinand windows mobile has had it for years... tho never used
07:24.34RyeBryeYeah, I guess I'm sometimes just nostalgic for the Newton :)
07:25.04Davinwhen all human kind can write legibly, and faster than typing... handwriting recognition might take off
07:25.15Davinaka: neva
07:26.07Davini see nural interfaces taking off first =)

09:50.02trippsso here's my $64k question - when is the google voice search app going to be available for the android?
09:53.21Leedswhen it's written?
09:54.18trippsLeeds, well it's written for the iphone, so I presume porting it to android wouldn't require a complete rewrite?
09:54.46languishtripps, do you mean "android" or do you mean "the g1" ?
09:55.18trippslanguish, well I presume if written for android it would function on the g1. correct?
09:55.43languishfunction, but released for...?
09:55.50languishthat's up to t-mobile.
09:56.39ionstormyea how does google plan on updating individual google apps, upgrading the firmware?
09:56.43trippslanguish, well yes in my case the G1. i thought the OHA had clauses in it to prevent the carriers from futzing/having prohibitions on stuff.
09:57.19languishionstorm, some apps can be independantly updated, others, will need to be updated with an OTA/patch/firmware update
09:57.55languishthey have both technical issues, and legal ones to consider
09:57.56trippslanguish, of course it would have to be written first for android. would this be an OTA firmware type app or a market app, then?
09:58.04ionstormany ideas about google docs for mobile editing capability?
09:58.07ionstormor is that a never
09:58.21languish<tripps> languish, well yes in my case the G1. i thought the OHA had clauses in it to prevent the carriers from futzing/having prohibitions on stuff.
09:58.30languishon the G1, T-Mobile decides all.
09:58.36languishIt's T-Mobiles device
09:58.39languishperiod.
09:58.47Leedsmine isn't
09:58.58languish(aside from rooting/jailbreaking it)
09:59.06trippswishes all these devices were merely sold unlocked and cut all the BS out of it ;)
09:59.26languishunlocked is not the same as completely ipen source, or open hardware
09:59.31languish*open
09:59.46languishunlocked only means it can be used with another carrier
09:59.48trippsthis is my fifth smart phone with t-mobile and the first actual t-mobile phone. all my treos and nokias were bought unlocked off the shelf
10:00.13*** join/#android anno^da_ (n=anno^da@p5492BC08.dip.t-dialin.net)
10:00.24languishunlocked is not a big deal. you can get just about any handset unlocked.
10:00.48trippslanguish, right. then it wouldn't be t-mobiles to control. right?
10:01.01languishahh... not exactly
10:01.18languishyour updates would still come from t-mobile.
10:01.26spikebikeheh, well amusing there's source or lack or, root or lack of, and the freedom to switch networks (or lack of)
10:01.28languishor not at all
10:01.44languishso you'd have to root the device, or live with the last update you received
10:01.57trippslanguish, gotcha. i wonder if there will eventually be a central ota repo for unlocked android devices
10:02.18languishmaybe, in the future
10:02.37languishbut remember, the individual devices may have different driver needs
10:02.58languishthe G1 has proprietary (closed source) drivers for certain hardware
10:03.19languishon openmoko, well.. android would be completely "open" in the sense you wish the G1 was
10:03.29trippsafter all, my machine is xpc, carrier is phonoscope, distro is linux but all my updates come from the repos and not from hardware or carrier . . . eventually the phones will merely be handheld computers in that manner I suppose
10:03.49languishyep, one day
10:03.55languishhopefully sooner than later
10:03.57trippss/linux/ubuntu
10:04.01trippsright
10:04.09languishwhich is sort of what google is aiming for
10:04.15languishthey got their foot in the door
10:04.15trippsexactly
10:04.37trippsperhaps a sneak attack. the carriers don't know exactly what they've gotten themselves into ;)
10:04.50languishbut the carriers and hardware manufacturers are still too uptight/conservative
10:04.57languishthey know
10:05.04languishthey;re "seeing how it goes"
10:05.15languishthey already have "open" devices on some of their networks
10:05.53languishbut the real issue is their concern for keeping the network stable, in case of a severely misconfigured device, or badly developed app
10:06.05languish(or intentionally destrictive app)
10:06.23trippsright I suppose that's a legitimate concern
10:06.27languishverses their potential revenue stream from "managed" devices
10:07.07languishthey ave legitimate concerns, but they're still asshats about how they usually handle them
10:07.30trippsno doubt
10:07.38languishgoogles taking the high slow road to dealing with it, but...
10:07.50trippsthe writing's on the wall. they can go the way of the typewriter or get with the program
10:07.56languishwell
10:08.01languishnot necessarily
10:08.12languishif the experiment fails..
10:08.25languishthey can turn around and point and say "see this doesn't work"
10:08.29languishbut..
10:08.39trippsdidn't google secure its purchase of craploads of spectrum?
10:08.41languishnew technologies may outdate them anyway
10:08.53languishno, google didn't buy the spectrum

10:09.15trippssupposed that was a hedge or something else entirely?
10:09.19languishthey just ensured some part of it was available to alternative devices
10:09.42languishthat carriers had to allow non destructive devices on their networks
10:09.47languishlike the G1
10:10.01trippsgotcha
10:10.02languishor openmoko
10:10.47languishthat doesn't mean the carriers have to do it for free
10:10.55languishbut this whole whitespaces issue...
10:11.05languishmight rectify the problem of carrier controls
10:11.41languish<languish> like the G1 <- was a bad example since the G1 is a carrier device
10:12.01trippsright
10:12.38trippsand i suppose verizon is still on the fence about it? and sprint thinks "android isn't good enough?"
10:12.44languishbut now you can still bring your standards compliant open source hardware device to the party
10:13.18languishsorint just isn; in a position to take adavtage of it yet, but they're all for it. so for now they're spindoctoring

23:26.52kcouryhey guys, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I'm having on an orientation change
23:28.54blauok
23:29.55d03boyis this a pop quiz?
23:32.36kcouryI'm starting a new thread to handle a long running task in my app but when orientation changes and the thread posts to the handler I guess the thread is referring to the old handler and my UI isn't getting updated
23:32.39eggy^
23:33.03blauahh hmm
23:33.15blauupdate something in the thread on orientation change
23:33.55taunokcoury, you guess or you know?
23:36.18kcourytauno: I'm actually not sure. I know the handler is being called after the orientation change but it's not affecting the UI like it would if I didn't change the orientation

23:53.57zhobbskcoury: that will let you pass 1 object during an orientation change
23:54.02zhobbsand get it back on the other side
23:54.11zhobbsso you could pass a Thread
23:56.14kcouryzhobbs: thanks, I'm going to try that
23:57.07zhobbskcoury: it's kinda tricky to do, you have to manage the state in the thread, and keep the results of the work around in case the thread finishes during the orientation change
23:59.04zhobbsI did this for one Activity/Thread and decided that in my case managing the orientation change manually was much easier
