Hi Jothi,

You are a Java developer why not code your own app??

Handling GPS and location based data is very simple in Android.

Hi fellow ranchers,


I developing an app, that allows user to select certain number of pictures from the photo library. The selected photos are then tagged to certain data of the application. I want to know, if there is a way by which I can retreive the photos again later, corresponding to the data saved in the application.

There is an option of saving the data in the application sandbox itself, but as the number of photos to tag can be hogh, it doesn't seem to be a viable option.


So by question is: Is there a way to retreive photos from the photo gallery?


Thanks in advance

Another step forward in Google's plan of world domination. I just read this article. Seems like Google has finally decided to enter hardware production as well

Looks like you need to use location based services(JSR179). Check your PM

Hi Gaurav,

Nokia 5800 is an utter waste of money. The touch screen has 'touch' only for the name sake. Music is upto the mark of Nokia, not anywhere close to wonderful. However new applications can be installed. The cost of the device, which started from 24000 INR is down to around 14000INR, that tells about it's sales figures. I would recommend Samsung star 3G, if you are looking for a descent touch screen phone with a deserving price tag.

To display a text string, you may use a TextBox or a TextField.

Hi Sreenu,

You may use Toast class, to display dialogs or pop-ups in android. See if that helps.

In my opinion , you have deployed the application without signing. Try signing the application and see if the problem still persists.

Hi Imdad,

Have you read the forum's policy before asking that question? Here's one which you should have read DoYourOwnHomework. You should try it first, and ask for help, when you are stuck at somewhere. You could have managed to write that code, just by going through the APIs.

Hi Tim,

I am basically trying to develop an application, which marks essential services(eg hospitals,schools etc.) within certain range of the device. For this I would have to keep detailed information of every place on the map(like latitude, longitude, info etc.), that is to be marked on the map.

Now if I have to prepare this application for a city, taking into account atleast 10 services, the amount of data that needs to be ready for use, is certainly not feasible to put on the device. Therefore I was thinking of developing a web service, just to serve information about the points of interset to the client application, on the device. The map part would still be retreived from the Gooogle maps web service, but the information about the POIs would be retreived from the web service.

Does this sound logical, or can there be a more efficient way to acheive this?

I was planning for a thick client application, but by your responses, it seems I would have to create a web service, to support this application.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply. I too think the method suggested by you (through overlays) is the only solution at sight. But if I intend to have many points of interests(POI) in my application, the amount of data I need to store on the device(latitude, longitude, address, etc. of the POIs) would be very high.

I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically get this data from the Google maps service itself, instead of providing it in my application(like it is done as simple search of a location on Google maps).

Hope you get my problem.

Hi fellow ranchers,

I am trying to develop a Google maps application for the Android platform. I have so far managed to implement basic geocoding, overlaying and simple map controls. Now I am stuck over implementing, 'plotting of points of interest 'on a map. All the examples I have seen over the internet, explain this in the terms of Google maps web service. I need to develop it on the Android platform. Also I came across a pdf , which states that it is not possible without 'hacking' in Gmaps(refer:link).

I also tried to get help from the Google API reference, provided with the sdk.

Can anyone guide me in the right direction(references, links etc.) to implent this?


Thanks in advance
