Apparently they don't... I updated it yesterday here from the market, although I don't use the GMail app at all...
[Android Apps and Games] thecrucible:
The update is not yet available to everyone. TBH I cannot see most of the Google apps in the market myself.

This is just an opportunity for those less fortunate to mess around with it.

This won't work on 2.1 right?
[Captivate General] NinjaCoder:
What happens when you guys go to "Settings" -> "Software update"?

Is there always a "Resume update" option?

When I click it, it always says "no firmware". I also didn't think I had any update to resume.

Also when I click "Check for update" I generally get "cannot communicate with server" or some weird message. Then I can't check again for 24 hours. Is there a way to get around the 24 hour limit?
[Captivate General] jonnywords:
i am having the same problem with my device.
[Captivate General] Zero4:
From my understanding, the "Resume Update" would be used if you postpone the update.

Also, to get around the 24 hour limit, you can change your clock 1 day ahead, however if it fails, it'll be 24 hours from tomorrow, and so on, and so on.
[Captivate General] degenerazn:
I get the same thing. Its probably because I'm rooted.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
I received the ota update and was rooted. It's hit or miss, no good explanation for it.

[Captivate General] gremsi26:
Heres what you do to go around the 24 hour limit:

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications. Tap Menu > Filter. Select Running. Then Select Device Management, Press Clear Data. Reboot Phone. You should be able to check for an update again.

Ive also been having the same problem. When i select Check Update, it says fail to connect with AT&T Server. I chatted with AT&T Tech Support and heres what they said:

Hey guys, short question.

Is it possible to flash a new firmware although netlock is on?

Is it risky? Could my phone get bricked?

SP-Lock and all other locks are off.

Hi can anyone suggest an alternative tool for apktool. It just doesn't work for me. Whatever I do either gives compiling errors or just a bootloop. Thanks guys.

I'm having serious problems compiling the framework-res from a CM6.1 based ROM. It decompiles fine, but won't recompile I get hundreds of errors about missing referances.

I only wanna edit a few XML's :sad:
[Android Themes] dean.d:
Which xmls do you want to edit, and what are you wanting to change?
[Android Themes] vido.ardes:
Thanks for replying, but I worked it out. I had some dodgy .9.png's that were breaking the compile, so I just had to remove them before compiling.

For anyone else having trouble, check the logs after you decompile to see if there are any messages about .9.pngs. If there are, remove them from the decompiled folder, compile when you are finished, then just add the .9.png's back in afterwards with WinRAR.

I was tryna change the color of the text and the border in the bottom popup menu for my Gingerbread theme :D
[Android Themes] Daneshm90:
The reason that happens is the original "dev" who themed the framework did not decompile/modify/recompile. He merely dragged and dropped the modified .9.png

Hence when u decompile, apktool cannot find the necessarry data within resources.arsc to decompile the .9.png and hence when u go to recompile, it complains. Ur safest bet is to always decompile an apk as close to stock as possible.

Friends,

I would like to figure out a method to ALWAYS keep Better Terminal Emulator running in the background after I have sent it to the background. I would like for Android to never kill this application.

I understand the normal Android framework automatically kills applications in the background when running low on memory, but I want this single application to stay active regardless of system performance. The goal is to run command-line tools/scripts in the background without fear that they will be randomly closed by Android.

Is there such a method? I have root on my device. Thank you.

That's one way, but you can also use an init.d script to do it, I've got the info at home and I'm at work right now. I'll up it later.

Another way would be to use an arm version of gnu screen.

I used to do this on my T-mobile g1 which only had 60mb of ram. Worked just fine and had the added bonus of allowing multiple terminals.

I would like to figure out a method to ALWAYS keep Better Terminal Emulator running in the background on my Tab after I have sent it to the background. I would like for Android to never kill this application.

I understand the normal Android framework automatically kills applications in the background when running low on memory, but I want this single application to stay active regardless of system performance. On the tab we have 512 MB of memory, which should be plenty to keep Better Terminal Emulator running in the background at all times. The goal is to run command-line tools/scripts in the background without fear that they will be randomly closed by Android.

Is there such a method? I have root on my Tab.

Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab General] rhca50:
If you have root, just run them on the command line... Those won't get closed.
[Galaxy Tab General] mail_e60:
how would I be able to run the terminal emulator from the command line when the commamd line app is the one i need to always be active?

the idea is to get it running like Pandora, always in the background.
[Galaxy Tab General] rhca50:
I run stunnel in the background all the time...

I launch connectbot, run my stunnel command, exit connectbot... my stunnel stays alive until I reboot.

Maybe it depends on the command you want to run... but if you run the command and end with a "&" it should fork into the background and stay running no matter what the memory situation becomes on android. (short of an actual OOM event)
[Android Software Development] Pryomancer:
Hi everyone,

I have a problem with Eclipse. I'm just starting out with Android development. I downloaded Eclipse with the ADT Plugin like it says on the Android dev site.

I managed to complete two tutorials, the hello world and layouts ones. They compiled and are now on my phone as normal applications.

However for some reason I can no longer do this, when I go to run the program I get this error from the console:

2010-12-10 16:06:21 - HelloL10N Android Launch!

2010-12-10 16:06:21 - HelloL10N Launch canceled!

I assume it's related to my phone (HTC Desire rooted with LeeDroid 2.2d) being plugged in. The emulator just doesn't work for me so I tried using my phone instead. I'd rather use my phone anyway for now.

I've tried re-installing Eclipse, to no avail.

When I plug my phone in and select disk drive, my computer comes up with a prompt something akin to 'scan and fix', does that mean there's a problem? I got the two previous apps to work fine on it.

Although I did the check disk scan, it completed fine and I still get the error.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Switch to the DDMS perspective in Eclipse and click on the tab "Console".

package com.example.helloandroid;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class HelloAndroid extends Activity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText("Hello, Android");
setContentView(tv);
}
}

Also how do you change to DDMS perspective? I'm not all too familiar with eclipse and it's intricacies. I've used it before but since I'm working with android it's all a little new and it's been prob over a year since i've coded anything. lol.

I'm slowly going through this tute.

http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html#overview

has anyone else gone though this? is it any good or does anyone know of any other tute that will set me on the right track???
[Android Software Development] LuvinAndroid:
I am not the sharpest tool in the shed guys, but here is my 2 cents :)

When I started (a very short time ago, and before the eclipse upgrade recently) I had to go into my SDK Manager and create AVD's that I wanted to use.

My Eclipses never...ever...launched an AVD by itself, I had to create one, then start it, then click my run button in Eclipse and off I went.

After the Eclipse upgrade, I still have to Start my AVD myself, but now it tells me there is no AVD...etc..blah...I click the "no" option and it brings up a window showing me available AVD's and I select the one I have running. It's an extra step, but I really don't care because I can still run everything I need on my emulators.

all the best :)
[Android Software Development] c_kappa:
thanks luvinandroid i've given that a go. it don't seem to rectify my issue of my app not showing up in the emu.

i've still been following that tute from my previous post and gotten up to running it. but still no avail. maybe i've set eclipse and android incorrectly. i've chosen to dev with 2.2 since that what is running on my sgs.

i'm kinda lost since i've used two different references in setting eclipse and android.

Ok, so few people asked me how I placed a Banner like Icon in-place of my dock. I wanted to answer directly but thought why not share it with everyone else. So here a tutorial on how to do it.

First, this is how it looks like

And a demo Vid

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78CNNGF5z5A[/YOUTUBE]

If you think its cool, then read on.

It's fairly easy, but quite tricky. Here we go.

What you need:

Launcher Pro

Banner/Icon (Template links later)

Desktop Visualizer

1. Set your home-screen row to 7 (for a 6 row home-screen setup). (This seems to be the most efficient value for me)

2. Now add a desktop visualizer 4x1 widget

3. With desktop visualizer, select your desired banner/template as your image and set the action as none (as seen on the video below)

4. Place the new widget on the bottom most part of your home-screen.

5. Now back to LPP preferences, set your home-screen row back to 6.

6. Might take long to load but there you have it, a scrolling banner on your dock.

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9F1zSNF_oI[/YOUTUBE]

Notes:

I believe you can use any number of homescreen rows from 4 up to 9 but I havent tested it yet and I only have a template for a 6 row homescreen.

In the video, I used a 5 column x 6 row setup opposed to the 4 x 6 setup on the tutorial to lessen the changes from stock layout.

forgot to mention, for best results, use transparent dock ang dock-shortcut icons.

Banner templates:

4x1 (right click and "save as")

5x1 (right click and "save as")

The Grey part is what the dock covers, blank part should always stay transparent. Just paste your banner over the gray part and make sure that nothing overlaps then delete the grey part entirely.
