Building Android application with Flash Builder 4 and flex 4.1

Hi,
Currently I am building an application for Android using Flash Builder 4. Previously, when my coding utilized the spark component of TextInput, it works perfectly in the Android device, but recently I found that using the spark component of TextInput won't be able to access the virtual keyboard in Android, but the mx component of TextInput is working fine. Spark components are not compatible with Air for Android under flex 4.1? Please advice.Thank you.
Regards

The spark TextInput is not optimized for mobile in Flex 4.0/4.1. See this thread for more information: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4600550/missing-on-screen-keyboard-for-flash-flex-web-a pplication-on-android/4735544#4735544

This feature is really awesome, it's great how you can embed other files such as XML with the application you want to publish.

Yes, flash builder 4 was the name given to what is effectively flex 4.
This answer is, essentially wrong.
Flex 4 is a Software Development Kit (SDK) that includes a compiler, a user interface framework, and a few other items.
Flash Builder 4 is an IDE that can be used to develop Flex applications. Flash Builder 4 can also be used to code ActionScript w/o any dependencies to the Flex Framework.
Grizzzzzzzzzz wrote: 2. Are Flash Builder 4 and Flash CS4 the same ?
No, Creative suite 4 is a software library consisting of many different programs
This answer is much more correct; but for additional clarification:
Flash Builder 4 is an IDE that programmers can use to develop applications for the Flash Platform.
Flash Professional CS4 is an IDE that Designers can use to create time-line based animations for the Flash Platform.
One is geared for designers; and another for programmers. In theory they can be used to reach the same end point although I wouldn't want to do application programming in Flash Professional; nor would I Want to do design stuff in Flash Builder.

Flash builder 4 and flex 3 sdk - co-existence?

Can I install Flash Builder 4 Premium on the same XP machine with Flex 3 SDK without conflicts?
Thanks.

Yes.
Perhaps you meant to ask about Flash Builder 4 and Flex Builder 3 co-existing? If so, then yes, you can also have Flash Builder 4 and Flex Builder 3 on the same machine without any conflicts; although I would not recommend installing them in the same eclipse instance.
You can also have as many Flex SDKs installed on your machine at a time and have Flex Builder 3 or Flash Builder 4 setup to use all the SDKs. Although, I don't thikn it is possible to use use more than one SDK as part of a single project. it'd be impractical, if not impossible.
I think that covers all bases.

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5
This is happening for most of the pupils and staff at our school and they are unable to complete their work.
This also happens on a fresh copy of windows and CS5.5 without any updates and also with all latest updates.
I have tried it on 32-bit and 64-bit CS5, Windows, Air and Java with the same error every time.
There are a small minority of users where this works fine for them with no issue.
I have tried re-setting user profiles.
I have tried a local admin and domain admin account with the same issue
I have noticed however that if the file is moved to the shared area it will compile. If it is on their documents area it will not compile. The users have full control in both locations. This is fine for staff but we are unable to give full control or modify access to the shared area for the pupil's
I have been through the online support section and it directed me to phone Adobe Customer care who informed me that all support has been discontinued for CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 and they will only support creative cloud.
Any ideas what to try next? There is no other information about this error and I cannot work out what is causing it.

I have tried and able to package an apk using your XML file.Could you please make sure your XML file starting from line 1 and coloumn 0.Any space will results in the error (Application Descriptor file cannot be parsed)

I'm having problems with Flash Videos (Youtube and ESPN)

I have been having this problem for the last couple of days now and it is really annoying. Whenever I watch a flash video like on youtube or espn my computer freezes up and the audio will make a loud buzzing sound. I have attached a video with the post so you can see what happens. I don't have problems with anything else except this. I also get this error no matter what browser I use. I have system restored my PC as far as I can go, and I've ran a ton of scans and driver update checks and nothing seems to work.

merci a tous pour les nombreuses réponse. j'ai dû mal a les lire vue que je ne lit que le français. je vous remercié encore une fois amicalement. Blanchette 2.

Adding Android Licensing with Flash Professional and AIR 3.0

I have done the overlay AIR 3 stuff, but I still can't find an answer on how to get Android Licensing Service implemented after days and days of searching. It is pretty poitless to package a paid Android app without the licensing check as it would just easily hand the app to unauthorized users to install it without a fight.
Do not post this absurd unhelpful link: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/android-licensing-native-extensions.html
It is only instructions for the bizzare FlashBuilder tool, and is quite long winded and excessive as well
Android Licesnsing Service is listed as a feature of AIR 3. How do I enable or install it onto my app in Flash Professional.

Hi, thanks for responding, Joe.
Yes, I do plan on customizing the implementation the best I can.
I am fine with using command line to build my project if needed, I just need it to work and need to know how to do it. I am very eager to get this finished up and published. It is very frustrating to have an app all ready for android after months upon months of working on it nonstop, but then get stuck on this.
I have been trying to get this all figured out the past several days. It is very confusing and there is barely any info out there on it.
I am using Eclipse to try and build this Java extension, as I have Flash Pro and not builder.
I have gotten the Jar created from the "Creating the Java project" step.
Now on the "Developing the ActionScript library."
It says to make a project and copy files form frameworks\projects\air\Licensing\Android\AndroidLicensingJavaProject\src\ which are java files, and do some stuff, then create a SWC from them.
I sort of suspect it was a typo in the article and is supposed to be frameworks\projects\air\Licensing\Android\AndroidLicensingLib\src\
seeing as it shows .as files in the project not .java.
Also it refers to what I think it means to be ExtensionContext as "ExternalContext," which does not appear to exist in flash.external on step 4 of 'Developing the ActionScript Library.'
So the article has some flaws, and should probably be rewritten and include instructions for the proper flash editor, Flash Professional.
Anyhow, I came up with a hack to build I SWC from Flash Pro which I hope will work.
I am trying to hack together a solution to get this all to work. It is very unpleasant having to guess and figure allot of things out myself. Is there going to be a proper solution in the future? If so, roughly how long will it be? I really need to get my projects published now or very soon, not a year or 6 months from now.
I tried to complie my project to build the SWF I need for packaging with the native extension and I get this error:
"Unexpected or unknown element or attribute in the application descriptor file.
/path-to-my-app/myappname-app.xml(49): error 103: application.android.extensions is an unexpected element/attribute"
I am also getting "Missing implementation for platform: Android-ARM" when I try to build the Native Extension. The person who has commented on the article ( http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/android-licensing-native-extensions.html , comments at the bottom of the page) has this very same problem.

Flash Builder 4 and Flex Mobile

I've started a Udemy course on Building Mobile Projects in Flash, and late last year I bought CS5 Master Suite with Flash Builder 4. Now I'm halfway through the course and was instructed to open a "New Mobile Project" in Flex, and didn't have this option.
After a bit of research it became clear I need Flash Builder 4.6. The course didn't specify this, which is extremely annoying, seeing as I've coughed up a not insubstantial amount of money for the software. Can anyone tell me what my options are here? I'm reluctant to part with more cash just to upgrade to yet another version of Flash Builder.

Hi,
You can still build apps with the AIR sdk using the command-line. One thing you lose by not upgrading to FB 4.6 is the new mobile framework in Flex, along with easier build/debug options. In my opinion it really is beneficial to upgrade. You will find it much simpler to test your apps and deploy them for iOS, Android, and BlackBerry.
Again, you can do everything with the free AIR sdk, including the new AIR 3.1 features like captive runtime, etc, it just won't be integrated into Flash Builder 4. Ant scripts are another way to automate the build process, and FB 4 has a streamlined Ant integration.

Flash Player 10 and Flex Builder 2

I need to have flash player 10 installed on my local machine for my time tracking software. With that I am no longer able to run my flex builder in debug mode. I am no longer able to see any of my trace() statements executed.
Is there any way to have Flex Bulder 2 run with Flash Player 10 in debug mode?

Try targetting the flash player 10 in your project setting.
Sincerely,
Michael

You may need to install Flash Player 9.0 or reinstall Flex Builder.
Do you want to try to run your application with the current version?

Does the Lifecycle product license include the use of Flex Builder Pro and Flex SDK?

I have been trying to find out whether we can use the latest Flex Builder and SDK using the LiveCycle license or do we need to purchase additional license? We will use these products to develop Flash Applications to use with our Livecycle product.

Intermittant problems with Flash Player 7 and 8

Good morning,
While "stress testing" a recent Captivate 2 generated quiz
lesson, one of our testers noticed some odd behavior. (Granted,
most students will not do the following actions, but I thought I'd
mention it anyway.)
First let me add that we use a LMS and that this behavior
might have something to do with the LMS, but I suspect the problem
might be in how Flash Player 7 and 8 handle viewing a SWF file.
The tester would start the quiz, answer a few questions, then
close the session (before the conclusion of the quiz). The tester
(student) would then (through the LMS) go to the quiz/lesson link
and begin again. The Quiz behaviors are that the student can't go
back to any question they have already answered. In theory the
student would go back to the next unanswered question and continue
with the quiz.
The first time this is done, everything appears to work well.
However, if the same student behavior is done again, when the
quiz/lesson is re-launched the student is taken to the very first
slide, not the one where they left off. If they go to the first
question slide they will find that it appears to be unanswered. The
student then tries to answer it and nothing happens, nore can the
student move to the next question. They are "stalled" and can go no
further. Any subsequent attempt to re-enter the quiz produces the
same effect. Additionally, if this is done without restarting the
computer the browser (Internet Explorer) will hang and they'll need
to stop the process.
I found that in Captivate 2 you have 3 options for building a
solotion when you publish a project. You can publish using Flash
Player 6, 7 or 8. Only by selecting Flash Player 6 does this
behavior stop. The Flash Player 6 selection seems to work well.
Anyone else had problems with FlashPlayer 7 and 8?

Flash Player 11 sends the getServerVersion request in order to determine the capabilities of the Flash Access license server. If you are running a 2.0 server, it should return an HTTP 404 error, since it does not support this endpoint. The client understands that to mean it is communicating with a Flash Access 2.0 server, and will send the license request accordingly. In other words, the fact that your 2.0 server does not support getServerVersion should not cause the license acquisition to fail.
Is your server responding to the getServerVersion request with a 404? After the getServerVersion request arrives at your server, you should see another request asking for a license. In your server logs, do you see any errors in the license request processing?

When streaming Vid with flash player, audio and video are not in sync

With Flash 11.6, audio and video are not in sync. Video is slower. Using Firefox 20.0.1

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
