I’m writing an application that displays Google Map right after the login screen.
The Build Target is set to 2.3 and my devices run:
1) Samsung Galaxy Ace (2.3.4)
2) Motorolla Xoom (3.1)
I try my app on the Android emulator and it runs fine. Login and map display.
When I connected both devices via USB on my computer and selected them to run the application (note: there was an orange warning sign next to the build target when selecting), the login screen appears just fine and when I click “Sign In” the application crashes on Motorolla and freezes and for a while and then does nothing on my Galaxy Ace.
Note that they can both connect to the internet.
Logcat for the devices while running the app through USB connection:
1) Samsung Galaxy Ace

This is my code for the MainActivity which is only Login and the Home activity which is where the map appears:
MainActivity:
package com.cylbs.android;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private Button login;
private EditText username, password;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
login = (Button) findViewById(R.id.logIn);
username = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.username);
password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.password);
login.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String mUsername = username.getText().toString();
String mPassword = password.getText().toString();
tryLogin(mUsername, mPassword);
}
});
}
public boolean tryLogin(String mUsername, String mPassword)
{
HttpURLConnection connection;
OutputStreamWriter request = null;
URL url = null;
String response = null;
String parameters = "username="+mUsername+"&password="+mPassword;
final TextView result = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.result);
try
{
url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2/database_test/index.php");
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
request = new OutputStreamWriter(connection.getOutputStream());
request.write(parameters);
request.flush();
request.close();
String line = "";
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream());
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(isr);
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
{
sb.append(line);
}
// Response from server after login process will be stored in response variable.
response = sb.toString();
// You can perform UI operations here
Toast.makeText(this,"."+ response +".", 0).show();
if (response.equals("Success"))
{
Session obj = new Session();
obj.setUsername(mUsername);
Intent myIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, Home.class);
startActivity(myIntent);
result.setText("Login successful");
}
else
{
result.setText("Login fail. Please try again");
}
isr.close();
reader.close();
}
catch(IOException e)
{
// Error
}
return true;
}
}
And the Home activity (extends MapActivity)
package com.cylbs.android;
import com.google.android.maps.GeoPoint;
import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity;
import com.google.android.maps.MapController;
import com.google.android.maps.MapView;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class Home extends MapActivity {
MapController mControl;
GeoPoint geoP;
MapView mapV;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.home);
mapV = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapView);
mapV.displayZoomControls(true);
mapV.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
double lat = 40.8;
double longi = -96.666;
geoP = new GeoPoint((int) (lat *1E6), (int) (longi *1E6));
mControl = mapV.getController();
mControl.animateTo(geoP);
mControl.setZoom(13);
Button emergencies = (Button) findViewById(R.id.emergencyButton);
emergencies.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent myIntent = new Intent(Home.this, EmergencyList.class);
Home.this.startActivity(myIntent);
}
});
Button disruptions = (Button) findViewById(R.id.disruptionButton);
disruptions.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent myIntent2 = new Intent(Home.this, DisruptionList.class);
startActivity(myIntent2);
}
});
}
@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
}
Any ideas? Thoughts?
It’s all for now.
Thank you so much.
P.S.
I’m a new android developer.
In case anyone else has the same issue I think I have found a solution.
I looked up the error in LogCat:
And according to this http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/NetworkOnMainThreadException.html
it seems that some (newer) android versions don’t allow internet connection requests in the MainActivity or something like that.
Even though I was targetting android version 10 (2.3) I still had the error so I changed my project target to version 8 and it seems to work okay now.
