Touch problem in certain android apps

Hi,
in certain Android apps that i have installed on my Z10, the touchscreen is not functioning properly. You need to push somewhat above and to the right of an interface element instead of just on the element itself. Certain interface elements that are located in the top right corner of an app can not be touched at all.
Especially in games this is annoying.
Is there some fix for this issue?
cheers,
Kris

See:
* http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/The-Language-bar-overview - The Language bar (overview)
It is possible that you are switching the keyboard layout by accident.
* Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar.
* You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar.
* Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar.
* You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application.
* The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.
* To avoid an unintentional switch assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctr+Shift)
* Vista: Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Keyboards and Languages > Change keyboards > Advanced key settings > Change key sequence

Problem with native android app builder

Hello.
I have tested the new DPS web app builder. The functionality is very good and simple. After I have signing up the app, I would like to upload it in Google Play Store.
After the upload I get an error message:
I understood it so:
It is not possible that the new version number is lower than the previous.
I have tested multiple settings in the DPS web app builder, but the first digit (number) is never over 5.
It is always the wrong version code.
What can I do? Please help me.

It looks like the existing app you have in the store has an upgrade version code of 3000000 (I hope I got all the zeros right!). You need to set your upgrade version field in the new app builder to something higher than that, like 3000001.

Using Itunes, I copied all my apps from my Ipod touch to a new Iphone 4. Problem is all the apps on the Iphone are starting up like a new install. I would think my "password" app and "lose it" app would have the past data transferred to the Iphone.

Beats audio android app external sound problem.

Hey guys,
Recently i downloaded the Beats Audio Android app for my Optimus 2. At first it worked fine, the external sound was good, as well as the headphone output. Very shortly after the external sound became very fuzzy and loud, with the headphone output still working perfectly. The only feature that would play sound without fuzz was speakerphone while in a call. I decided to factory default my phone thinking it would fix the problem, i was already going to do it anyway. Come to find out everything got wiped including beats audio, but the same old external sound problems persisted. I'm not sure how to fix it and it is very annoying and sometimes randomly goes off. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
-Tyler
Maybe it has something to do with the master volume? Although i'm not sure how to access that either..

Hello,
I see that you are having trouble with the beats audio app on your phone. I would suggest that you post your issue here as well for assistance. The link will take you to the android forum for your phone.

Yes I do spend a lot of time in China but I have had problems in other countires as well. I am in China right now.
I have two Gmail accounts and one Cox account. Cox is my intranet provider back home. I have had problems with all three accounts.
I have tried several outgoing port settings. 993, 995 465, 587 are some that I can remember trying.
Sometimes my accounts will go offline without me doing anything. This is all a mystery to me. I don't have any idea why I have trouble like this. A few minutes ago I changed my Cox account outgoing port and took the account on line and I got my incoming email but when I tried to forward an email that I got it would not go out.
Any ideas you have would be helpful.

Problem with Android app

One article in my folio should show a pdf-file, there is the link to this file in Web content frame. In iOS everything works fine, but Android devices don't show the file! Can native Android apps show pdf-files in Web Content????
And is it possible to show pdf-files in Android using another means?

A common method to display PDF files in a folio is to add the PDF files to the HTMLResources.zip folder and link to it.

[FEATURE REQUEST] - dlna client in Xperia WALKMAN Android app does not support flac or ogg files

Hi, I have found a pretty bad bug in the dlna support in the WALKMAN android app for Xperia phones.
Please could a mod or a community person who is in contact with the developers, pass this info on to them and ask them to please work on it.
I have the latest updated Version 8.3.A.0.5 of the WALKMAN android app installed on a SONY XPERIA Z mobile phone and I have a dlna server set up and running on my local network.
If I download, install and use the DNLA Total Media app available in the Google play store instead of the WALKMAN app, I can play flac and m4a files; no problem.
However, if I use the WALKMAN app to browse to my dlna server and try to play flac or m4a files, I get a small black box on screen that says "Content not available."
If I browse to and select an mp3 file instead, the WALKMAN app will play (stream) the mp3 file and no small black box will appear.
So it looks like the dlna part of the SONY WALKMAN app is missing support for some audio file container types which are supported by default on the Android operating system and work natively in the WALKMAN app (I tested play back from internal storage.) I believe ogg format playback is missing also. Because it is not required by the dlna specification.
Please improve file type support in the dlna client part of the WALKMAN app for XPERIA phones. People working in professional audio environments don't use mp3 anymore (And haven't done for over five years.)
Thank You

Thanks for the feedback!
As you say, i believe the DLNA standard doesn't have any support for flac and ogg but i've seen some 3:rd party apps that can do it but i'm not sure if those uses DLNA in that case or just UPnP. I will forward your feedback though.
The only solution for this that i know of today is to use a 3:rd party app or perhaps mount the share using SMB instead from Settings -> Storage.

Lumia touch problem

I have purchased Lumia 535 last week,touch pad not working properly.I also update my phone but problem not solved.

Hi everyone,
We are sorry that some of you have been inconvenienced by this situation. We’ve identified some models of Lumia 535 are presenting different anomalies on the touchscreen performance. It manifests itself in several ways:
Functionality of the scroll up/down and swipe left/right functions.
Scrolling up/down or swiping left/right can result in an app or link being activated unintentionally.
Functionality of the zoom in/out feature can be compromised if the user’s fingers are less than 20 mm apart.
Text editing, particularly at speed, can result in characters being missed.
‘Ghost touch’ - use of the touchscreen in wet/moist conditions.
If the user’s fingers are wet or the atmosphere is damp (i.e. entering a warm room from cold outdoors) buttons on the touchscreen can be activated unintentionally.
An OTA (over the air) software update has been deployed in 23rd of December 2014, solving most of the problems but certainly not for all customers.
Our Technical Support Operations team here in Finland, as well as the engineering teams in the US and China have the matter under investigation marked as an urgent priority, in the meantime please use the troubleshooting offered by my colleagues in this thread.
When our colleagues in the engineering team have identified the cause of the conflict, we will provide further information, whether this is another software update or an action performed on hardware at an authorised Care Point, (at this time Care Points have not received updated info regarding this topic, thus is useless to visit them).
We assure you that Microsoft does take matters like this very seriously and our teams are working frantically to resolve this concern for our customers. For the time being, we can only recommend that you use the troubleshooting provided whilst we work to ensure that the situation is properly solved, and that you accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Photoshop touch - problem...

i bought this app for my samsung galaxy s3 (android) yesterday!
it is not rooted!
i still haven´t been able to start working with photoshop touch, cause every time i try to import a photo, the app crashes and restarts!
i´ve tried to restart the phone several times and i´ve also cleared the cache/ data for all my photo apps (including photoshop touch) and for the photo gallery and reinstalled photoshop touch, but i´m still having the same problem!
i need this thing working asap!

i´ve tried that many times and sometimes it works after that, but mostly it doesn´t!
i´ve searched the internet for solutions for the problems with this app and it´s obvious that a lot of customers are having problems!
if the app starts is completely random and importing a photo works maybe 3 times out of 50 and that definately indicates a problem!
since the problems described above, i´ve come a little further!
i finally managed to save a photo in your app and since then, every time i start your app and load that saved photo, it loads properly and i can finally get to working with it!
since then, i actually haven´t attempted to import another photo again, so i don´t know if there´s any stability improvement regarding that, or if it just goes back to crashing again!
another huge problem has ocurred though, so i´m still a very unhappy customer so far!
i´ve tried to work with that photo i successfully imported and saved!
i start working with it and every single time so far, the app suddenly and unexpectedly crashes after a while!
so i just have to start all over again and have done so about 20 times now!
getting increasingly frustrated with this app!
i realise that your app is totally awesome when it works like it should, but unfortunately it doesn´t!
hoping for a quick fix for all stability problems asap!
kind regards!
Andreas!

Freezing PB - Converted Android apps?

I have OS version 2.1.01314. Never had any problems until few days ago. What I tried to run converted Android APS my PB intermittently is going nuts. It freezes for several seconds I mean black screen only. Than recovers. After restarting the PB. I have done a Backup to my PC and done a Sec Swipe. Now I am re loading the OS. The last two apps I installed were GPS Maps using Nokia Maps and Passwdsafe, both from App World. I suspect one of these apps, but I am far from certain.
Anyone has similar problems.

Some times running many diff android apps will cause it to hang, Usually a restart fixes it for my son.

Android app release lag

I get that there is certain pressure due to Apple music to get iOS functions out as soon as possible, but why am I starting to feel that all andoid users are being left waiting due to this? Spotify has released a number functions, including Running, on iOS a good two months ago already and their dates are still TBA on the Android app.
Now I am aware of the beta version for android that does have the functions (I wasn't fast enough to join the beta, of course), but that isn't much comfort for a paying customer having the negative side effect of preferrential prioritisation(?).Can spotify at least give a small peace of mind and announce the release date of the functions so I can consider if it's worth paying full price for only a portion of the full service?

Anbody know if the new release of AIR 3.2 will fix this problem. Or if there is an alternative solution?

Suspend Android app on exit

I got a suggestion from a customer concerning my Android app. When you exit the app, it continues to play in the background (unlike iOS). I would like to add functionality to the app (game) to pause (suspend) on exit. I tried some different coding version with out luck. The Android tablet (and phones) I test it on ignores the code and the games timer continues to tick down. I'm using Flash Pro CC with AS3. Not sure what the problem could be at this point!

Your app would get rejected in some stores, certainly the Samsung one. The basics are that you have deactivate and activate listeners, and those need to pause your game. For some of my apps all I need to do is make the sound volume be zero, then on activate I set the volume back to what it was before. If you have more complex game play you would want to have a pause button anyway, and the deactivate event would just call the same routines that the pause buttons uses.

Any update on an Android app?

Are there any updates on an Android app? I figure it should be easier to create than an iThing app since we have a brilliant AIR port on Android.

I tried a workaround by forcing flash on my tablet. Needless to say it was extremely slow, as flash isn't officially supported. But, besides that, the interface actually worked very well on my tablet. Specially with a physical keyboard. So if it's an interface problem for touch that's keeping this from happening, I can guarantee that most people won't have an issue with it. Maybe you could do a beta to try it out?
Sorry for the double post, but the site won't let me edit my comment from my phone.

DPS android app for small screens, works, but poorly...

There is a way to get the DPS android app compatable with 1400 devices, including mobile phones.
In theory if you here reading this its because you have an android app made by the DPS app builder live in the play store and...
A: found out that the android app is only available on large/xlarge screens
B: are getting yelled at by your employer who bought the Adobe DPS subscription and claims this should work on his phone "because I looked at the Adobe site and it says android, my phone is an android, read their site and make it work"
C: found this because you were smart enough to read through the forums before suggesting this as a publishing solution to your employer and want to know if it really works on android phones, in whcih case, you may want to make it easy on yourself and just say "no, it does not" and then waid for Adobe to officially support small/normal screens perhaps head over to this post and bring some attention to it so we can collectivly improve this already awesome tool: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1097433
however, before you attempt this please keep in mind the following:
1- it does not work well, if at all, on certain devices. specifically the small phone devices with the slower processors. So what typically happens is that you need to delete the data for the app and wait nearly 10 min for the "checking for updates" to process and grab new edditions. Depending on your serivce provider, this can be a nightmare. So, do NOT even attempt this if you have a cap on your data plan, think about how long it would take to download a 100mb folio file on a 3g connection, not to mention the processor which the tablets have and phones do not have.
Here is some more data:
--Android 1 from Sprint: really super slow, thats all I gotta say
--Android 2 from Verizon, again, slow, but works
--Galaxy Nexus 4.1.1, Verizon 4g connection, works great, (10% of the time) lol. about 90% of the time the Galaxy Nexus needs to be restarted after installing, and will get stuck on the "updating library" screen. the only way to fix this for any of the above phones seems to be to clear all data, uninstall, re install, do not launch, restart phone, and then launch app.
I am going to test the following soon:
     Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 (1.6GHz Quad-core)
     (1.5GHz Quad-core)
          LG Optimus G E973
          Xiaomi MI-2
          LG Optimus 4X HD P880
          HTC One X
(the idea being that perhaps we can go through the list from google in the play store and limit the devices its on, but at least with this solutuon as described below we can get rid of the "not availabe on your device" notice.)
So before you read on, consider that for your end users. If you find a way to fix this, let me know, I have considered turning off hardware acceleration but have not tested this yet.
2- if you choose to attempt this make sure you have a good understanding of command line AND you have a new version of the app ready if you want to roll back.
consider this concept: (you should have these ready)
app a- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 100000 and 2.5.5.000. This is already in your google.play store account as a live app,
app b- the app you are about to build in this example below, it will in theory work on small, medium, large, and x-large android screens, lets say its version is 110000 and 2.9.9.000 (it will be MADE FROM APP A, you will open it, edit it, and wrap it back up.)
app c- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 200000 and 3.5.5.000 (which would be good to have in case your version b above does not work the way you want)
notice the VERSION codes. These are important because you can only go UP, you can not "roll back" to a previous version.
Again, I do not suggest this, but if you are daring and have some development background, feel free to give it a shot.
(I am not going to be able to support this info, but I can verify 100% that I got mine working, very poorly and slow, but it installs, pulls folios, and loads)
PC WINDOWS ONLY, I have not tried this on a MAC.
get this:
http://www.7-zip.org/
install it
get this:
http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
read all about it.
go here:
http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list
get:
          apktool1.4.3.tar.bz2
and
          apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
put them all in 1 folder, extract both items, all the way
the grab the
          android-viewer.apk
that Adobe DPS made, or whatever yours is named...
and the
          release.keystore
you made and put them in the same "stuff" folder. there should be 20 items total in here now.
get this:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u30-download-1377139.html
          jdk-6u30-windows-x64.exe
do NOT use any other version, do NOT use version 7, use version 6.
install it all. then find it. should be here- (C://program files/Java/)
I recomend grabbing it all and putting it in your ROOT like this:
C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
then, put everything from the "stuff" folder into C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
yep, all of it.
now we are ready to get funky...
run cmd line.
open start menu, type
cmd
into the search bar, hit enter
-------- run command line, get to proper directory
cd ..
cd ..
cd Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
(or wherever your 'stuff' is)
--------open up
apktool d android-viewer.apk android-viewer
(this will make a folder called 'android-viewer' and you will be able to go into that folder and find the XML files in there)
--------edit XML
in file: /android-viewer/AndroidManifest.xml
open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
android:versionCode="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_" android:versionName="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_"
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
in file: /android-viewer/assets/META-INF/AIR/application.xml
open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
          <versionNumber>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionNumber>
          <versionLabel>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionLabel>
<supports-screens android:smallScreens='true' android:normalScreens='true' android:largeScreens='true' android:xlargeScreens='true'/>
--------package it back up
apktool b android-viewer android-viewer-new.apk
(this will repackage the folder into a new APK, note the name -new.apk added to the end)
--------Sign
jarsigner -keystore release.keystore -signedjar android-viewer-signed.apk android-viewer-new.apk YOUR_ALIAS
(now you need to sign the -new apk and recreate it as signed)
--------Verify
jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs android-viewer-signed.apk
(if the last line does not say 'successfully verified' and there is an error, make sure you are using version 6 of JDK and not 7)
--------Update APK in play store
Visit this page
http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/about/distribution.html#instant
read the line that says "Instant publishing, instant updates"
while you do, understand you are being lied to, it takes anywhere from 30 min to 4 hours for your update to be "instant".
take the new "android-viewer-signed.apk"
rename it, upload it, activate it, de activate the old one.
important: beofe you click save, switch over to the "product details" tab and update your version notes.
head over to your app page in the play store.
sit there and click refresh every 10 min or take a nap and come back in a few hours.
when you finally see the version number has updated, go to the browser on your phone
find your app in the browser, refresh the page, make sure its got the new version number on it.
install it on your small screen device, cross your fingers, and hope you do not get a message that says "not signed properly"
if you do, feel free to start googling the stuff above to see where you went wrong.
If it does work, go to your boss and have him download it and run it and say "see, there ya go, its on your phone now" and when he says it does not work hand him a minni screw driver and a 1.6GHz Quad-core from the Galaxy Note II and tell him to simply upgrade the procssor in his phone because its too slow. lol.
-good luck and enjoi

Hi,
This is very interesting. I'm not an expert but i could do almost all the steps, but i can not do the sign step. i dont know where my release.keystore is. i created a .key.p12 file, is it?
I'm trying to do this for a Galaxy SIII
Thank you
