I just got my Galaxy S upgraded about a month ago. Today, I found there is Android 2.3.5 update. The speed of rolling out is getting faster. I believe Samsung is working closer with Google.
Moreover, I found the new version have some performance enhancements too! I am already happy enough about it.
I have upgraded my Iconia A500 to Android 3.2, I have plugged it with USB Network Card again. That is still not working!!! I think even the OS is upgraded, it won't work! I believe USB Network Card cannot use with an Android Tablet, that is not a recommended way from Google.
That's quick, my Acer Iconia A500 has another update! Yesterday, I downloaded the latest update from Acer. Today, I got it updated to Android 3.2.
The first enhancement I picked up is the performance. It seems to get 2X speed! Maybe, I will find more new features in next few days.
I am an Android Application Developer and I am not a Windows Phone owner. But I still believe Windows Phone will have at least 25% of market share in the smart phone sector. I think Windows Phone will success in the Enterprise Market. There are a lot of companies using Exchange Server. If Windows Phone can work better with Exchange Server better than Android and iPhone, that makes sense. Windows Phone will be the best option for a lot companies as their staff phone. Moreover, Microsoft got a strong partner network. They can use their partner network to encourage the developers to develop their apps in Windows Phone. I believe only basis on these two points, Windows Phone will success!
In the C# Wolrd, we always use "MessageBox.Show (String)" to generate on screen notification (Pop-Up Message Box). In the Android, it has a similar thing calls toast. That is a small square box on the screen. Well, this is not just a single line of code, like Toast.Show(string). But that is just a few lines of codes more.
Code:
Context context = getApplicationContext(); | |
CharSequence msgText= "Test"; | |
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context,msgText, Toast.LENGTH_LONG); | |
toast.show(); |
Apple has announced iPhone 4S and iOS 5 update. I need Google to response this news too! Last week, they has announced Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0. That is the new generation of Google Phone! Moreover, that is the first Android which can use in Tablet and Phone! I hope we can get a Galaxy Nexus soon too!

I have tried to call the json view in the controll, like this:
Code:
$view = &$this->getView('view','json','prefix'); | |
$view->display(); |
But that is still with the default html template, even I have used, json_encode.
I have found out I have to put "format=json" in the request url.
I am implementing a MVC component. I wish to pass a value from the controller to the view for displaying. This is very easy. You need to assign the value from the controller.
Code:
$view = &$this->getView('viewname','fromat','prefix'); | |
$view->assign('ids','1,2,4'); |
Then in the view:
Code:
$ids=$this->get('ids'); |
That is easy.
Joomla is using the MVC Pattern. There is another feature. You can override display function in controller to trigger whether the controller will display the template. In the following example, I will not display the template when the form is submitted.
Code:
function display(){ | |
$task = JRequest::getVar('task'); | |
if( $task != 'enter' ){ | |
parent::display(); | |
} | |
} |
I got a Galaxy S. I just upgraded to Android 2.3.4. That is the latest version of Android. That is similar with Galaxy SII. I do not play games. Thus, I do not need a fast CPU. Moreover, I am still happy about the screen quality. That is better to keep my old Galaxy S.
During this year, that is a transition period from 32-bit to 64-bit. That should not be a problem in .Net application. .Net should be CPU Neutral. But sometimes, some.net dlls will call others native dlls, such as SQLite and some SQL special types. They are only for either 32-bit or 64-bit environment. Thus, please be aware of this issue.
