Q & A THREAD
Need stunning AROMA Installer Package Creator in GUI:
Aroma App Package Creator
by commandersafiYOU DON'T NEED TO USE TOUCH RECOVERY TO MAKE THE TOUCH SCREEN WORKS
If your Recovery Kernel include Touch Screen Driver, even if the recovery not supported touch screen, it will works.
And Almost any recovery included touch screen driver in its kernel (Except some trimmed versions)

Benefits For Chefs/Developers
AROMA Installer gives chefs many benefits:
You don't ever again have to hear someone ask to remove or include something they like into your ROM, just for you to yell "Hey, that is only your opinion! Only you and some other people like it; most people don't! Go remove the apps on your own with WINRAR, you ^$#&*&#$", remember they are still a customer , and with AROMA Installer, this problem can be solved.
If you are good at customizing the AROMA Installer it was possible to make your ROM compatible with many devices using just one ROM File. You save your time, bandwith and hosting maintanance.
With the great user interface in your ROM installation, users will be very happy with it.

Open Source?
There may be some people who will ask if the project is Open Source, and the quick answer is YES. It is an Open Source Project Now.
Why Release The Source?
I used some other work (modified) from the Open Source Community, especially Koush's recovery source code for getting the input mode, PNG, ZLIB, and some Framebuffer programming samples.
I want to make all chefs feel safe, so I guarantee that I won't make this into a money making program.
I got something from the community, and I want to give something back to it.
What Benefits?
Rapid development
I can get code review & patches - Not just bug reports
There are many innovations that I wrote in the program that may be useful for other needs, like the AROMA Graphic Framebuffer, the AROMA UI, the Amarullz Dithering Method, and the AROMA Simple PNG Fonts. It may be used in recovery, so recovery can use the AROMA Installer Interface
I can learn more about Open Sourcing programs (especially the CVS and licensing things - that always drive me to the question - what is it?)
I Need Help
As I said before, I am just a newbie at Android Development, or even as a user. I need someone who has a lot of knowledge about Open Sourcing the software, and a lot of knowledge about licencing (I don't know much, I just tried to make my software compatible with them: GPL, Apache, etc.)...
Thanks.Source Code
https://github.com/amarullz/AROMA-Installer
TOOLS: AROMA Key Capture
I also created "aroma-keycapture-flashable.zip" to capture the keycodes of your device (flashable in recovery - won't flash anything ). And in case the keys don't work, report the keycodes in this thread, with information like this example:
DOWNLOAD IT HERE
Code:
Prev Item/Up Key = 120
Next Item/Up Key = 110
Select Item/Enter/Select Key = 13
Back Key = 200
Menu Key = 193
To customize keycodes, open aroma-config and modify this code:
Code:
##
# Custom Key Code - Usefull For Some Device which not used
# Standard key code for up/down/select/back/menu
#
# You can capture the keycode in
# recovery using "aroma-keycapture-flashable.zip" Available in
# AROMA Installer Thread.
#
# Press some key when it run, it will return key code,
# that key can override up/down/select/back/menu actions in
# AROMA Installer, you can even set your home key for up, or
# volume down for select item
#
#-------- Uncomment & Modify this Code:
#
# ini_set("customkeycode_up", "115");
# ini_set("customkeycode_down", "114");
# ini_set("customkeycode_select", "116");
# ini_set("customkeycode_menu", "139");
# ini_set("customkeycode_back", "158");

AROMA Installer Resources
The Codenames
AROMA Installer codename based on Alphabetical Indonesian Flower Names. Here the list of already used codename:
ANGGREK - 1.00
BOUGENVILLE - 1.10
CEMPAKA - 1.60 - 1.64
DAHLIA - 2.00
EDELWEIS - 2.50
FLAMBOYAN - 2.70
Programming Language
It was application which runs on Android device but not on Android OS Environment that the native applications usually use Java. AROMA Installer use C (Pure C, not C++), so it may run on another platform like x86 with small modifications ofcourse.
Used Libraries
ZLIB - ofcourse, it was the most awesome thing in computer world :good:
PNG
MinZIP
Freetype
All library need to compiled as static to make sure it runs without any dependency issue in any devices.
Official Binary
I Only support ARM device, but it was opensourced, so anyone can play with the source and compiled it for they own devices.

About AROMA Installer
BackgroundAndroid has an advanced system for installing the OS and updates, unlike other mobile OS's that distribute the contents of the OS in static ROM image(s), Android distributes the OS and updates in a plain .zip file that contains all of the packages, files, and the updater for processing the installation.
The updater splits in 2 types, the binary (update-binary) and script (updater-script), while the binary is an executable file, and the script was a configuration script that tells the binary executable what to do.
But this advanced technology never expanded into its highest potential ability. The update-binary was simply the linux executable wrote in C that runs in root mode, and can do anything to your system; including accessing the Display FrameBuffer, accessing keys and the touch screen, set vibrate, run programs, parse files, load png(s) and .zip's, and read and write to the filesystem.
The old update-binary only supported a few functions that can controlled only by the updater-script to instal the files. It didn't have a single function that allowed the installer to interact with the user. There is a program called "yesno" that shows a "Yes" or "No" interface, but it wasn't enough to create a more customizable updater.
Now with AROMA Installer update-binary, all of this limitation is gone, and this advanced technology is expanded to the highest level of its pontential.Read More at amarullz.com [+]
What is AROMA Installer"AROMA" was taken from Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian Language) and it means "Scent", but it is also an abbreviation of "AMARULLZ ANDROID ROM MANIFESTATION". It is an advanced update-binary for Android that contains many features like Wizard Installation, Touch User Interface (AROMA UI), Customizable Packages, System Inspecting, Themeable, and User Interactive. All release versions will have "flower" codenames, for example, the 1st version is codenamed "Anggrek", which mean "Orchid".
How AROMA Installer WorksHow can it work in recovery mode, and how can it so smooth when it scrolls? It works because I hired Chuck Norris to force the recovery to run the installer, and the phone is too afraid to show any lag .
No, seriously, when the user selects the .zip file to install it, the recovery will extract the update-binary and run it with a few arguments. All processes are handled by the update-binary, and the recovery will only show the information passed by update-binary via a custom pipe. The great thing is that the update-binary can do anything if we can code it in C/C++, but not all people can easily play with C/C++. Its also not very effective or fun to compile it every time we need to change the process. That's why the custom script is used in AROMA Installer, it is simply edify scripting that is used as the normal updater-script, but with expanded functions available.
It wasn't a simple thing to archive something like this, because the update-binary is simply the "linux executable" that doesn't even support dynamic links of libraries, basic drawing functions like drawrect, drawline, and I don't think it OpenGL can be included in it's binary. It runs on it's own. Even User Interface was wrote from scratch to manipulate directly into the display framebuffer, user input was read directly from the raw kernel input device, png and .zip was read with a static link library, and the configuration was parsed in it's own program. It is the result of one full month of developing, but you can learn it instantly, without any need to know how to manage memory usage and pointers.
The AROMA Installer will read, parse, and run the script commands to show it's UI, calculate partition sizes, create, read, and write temporary prop files, set & get variables, do simple integer comparisons and math sequences, do the if else or inline if conditions, configure the UI color scheme, configure rom information, and much more.
Because it was very complicated and needed a lot of time to develope, did I earn some reason to get donations?.Donate To Me [+]

Customizing AROMA Installer
Best Practice to learn about Customizing AROMA Installer was read and edit the aroma-config and updater-script directly from downloaded files, or for the completed features (but not well documented) was read aroma-config and updater-script from RunnyMede AIO,
Download RunnyMede AIO AROMA Installer Scripts!
And Some Interesting Answered Questions from TweetyPeety by me Here
Customizing Your Script
AROMA Installer can be configured and customized as you like, there is so many features and functions you can used to implemented many things. In this manual, we will learn all the features and functions in technical ways and can be implemented directly in configuration for practice, or production.
AROMA Installer Zip Directory Structures
AROMA Installer use standard ClockWorkMod zip Installer structures. All configurations will be placed in META-INF Folder in zip contents. Here the example directory structure for AROMA Installer:
All AROMA Installer files, should be placed in META-INF/com/google/android/. There is 2 Binary files, and 2 Script/configuration files, and 1 resources folder.
aroma – Aroma Assets/Resource folder, It contains custom files, like png fonts, png icons, png splash images, text file for changelogs or agreement/license.
aroma-config – It was main AROMA Installer configuration script. This configuration was the one that supported AROMA Installer functions like Wizard UI's, Installer UI, Dialog UI, get and set variables, etc. This script wrote on Edify Script Sintax (See next chapter). This script not supported functions to manipulate system files/extract files and other installing method. It's only configuration to prepared all needed data for updater-script.
update-binary – It was AROMA Installer Executable, the compiled program wrote by me in C, and it was the program that show User Interface.
update-binary-installer – It was old update-binary (renamed to update-binary-installer), will be runs on Installer UI when the installer need to flash/install/extract files from zip to the phone.
updater-script – It was old edify format to start copying/install/extract files from zip to the phone. It will only support old functions that supported by update-binary-installer, but can read prop files created by AROMA Installer.
AROMA Installer Assets Directory
AROMA Installer use others files to show the interfaces, The Interfaces like windows, dialog, title, rounded rectangle and simple drawing was implemented by executable used compositing colors configurations, but for others drawing like text and icons, AROMA Installer will read zip contents in this asset directory.
The minimum requirements in this assets directory was png fonts files (big and small). It placed in fonts directory, an Icons can be placed in any directory of aroma assets, but for cleaner locations, it recommended to placed all icons in icons directory, And there is some default icons like alert.png, install.png and info.png that should be placed in this directory, because the installer executable was hardcoded icons locations like icons/alert.png for confirmation, icons/install.png for about dialog.
All splash and text files can be placed in anywhere but inside this assets directory. Example when you want to read text file into variable, use:
Code:
setvar("changelogs",readfile_aroma("changelogs.txt"));
It will find META-INF/com/google/android/aroma/changelogs.txt.
Link Between aroma-config and updater-script
It was main section to be knowing by anyone that how can the aroma-config communicated with updater-script, so please read it carefully.
aroma-config and updater-script runs in different process, and can't share it's memory resource, so the only possible way to communicate is with temporary files. updater-script was original updater-script commonly used in old installer (without AROMA Installer), it's only supported bunch of functions to be used for manipulating system files, like delete_recursive, set_perm, format, mount, package_extract_dir, etc. But it's also support 1 function for read prop file, it was file_getprop.
That's why the AROMA Installer UI always save the result in prop files ( checkbox, optionbox, menubox ). Other than the UI, aroma-config has the feature to create temporary file in plain text (writetmpfile) which able easily create prop files.Prop File FormatThe prop file format was simple plain text format with (=) token as delimiter between key and values, and newline as delimiter between one key=values with another key=values.
Code:
key1=value1
key2=value2
key_3=value3
last.name=amarullz
It can be easily accessed with file_getprop in updater-script like this:
Code:
file_getprop("example.prop","key1");
With above code, the file_getprop function will return the value of key1, it will returned "value1". We can use it for our needs in if/if else statement. We can use others characters in keys, like dot (.) and underscore, but please be careful, that you don't add some quotes in the values. Here the wrong prop file format:
Code:
key1="value1" [COLOR="Red"]# add quotes[/COLOR]
key2="value2" [COLOR="Red"]# add quotes[/COLOR]
first name=james [COLOR="Red"]# Key name with space[/COLOR]
AROMA Installer Default Prop Temporary Locations
When playing with AROMA Installer aroma-config files, almost all things that manipulated prop files will be saved relatively on AROMA temporary directory located in /tmp/aroma-data/, so if we pass the prop filename like this: writetmpfile("test.prop","key1=ok");, the test.prop will be located at /tmp/aroma-data/test.prop.
Quick Example
In this example case, the aroma-config will create temporary prop file that will be readed by updater-script:
aroma-config:
Code:
writetmpfile(
"kernel.prop",
"snq =yes\n"+
"call.2way=no\n"
);
updater-script:
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/kernel.prop","snq") == "yes"
then
# Install Kernel
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot");
endif;
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/kernel.prop","call.2way") == "yes"
then
# Do Something here
else
# Do Something here
endif;
With this feature, it's enough to archive customizable installation, and the aroma-config will be able to communicate with updater-script.
EDIFY SCRIPT
Edify Script was simple script sintax to configure the behavior of binaries executable. In AROMA Installer, there is 2 edify script in the META-INF/com/google/android folder. The aroma-config and updater-script. Both files has it own use, and accessed by different binary executable, but use the same sintax, It's called edify.
The aroma-config used to configuring the UI in AROMA Installer, it will accessed directly by AROMA Binary Executable ( update-binary ), and updater-script will be used to configuring commands for installations (extract files, create symlinks, change permissions, format, mount, etc), and will be accessed directly by update-binary-installer. This couple script use the same sintax but have different functions that can be used.Basic Edify SintaxEdify Script was function base script, similar to C language, but without any supported statement except if else. You also can't create function, only bundled functions available for the script. All commands will call functions name with some arguments, and ends by semicolon, like this:
Code:
function_name( argument1, argument2, argument3 );
Edify also supporting simple concat-ing string, just like some other languages like Javascript or Java. Using plus (+).
Code:
function_name("Concat this " + "Strings" + " as one argument");
All Edify function's arguments was in type string. Edify doesn't support others data type, however, we can insert some integer values into arguments, but it in the fact it will be treated as string.
Code:
function_name( 50, 20, "55" );
We can't do any math calculation in edify script, so the script below is invalid:
Code:
function_name( 50 + 50 );
If you use the string with plus operator, it will only concat the strings just like the 2nd example:
Code:
function_name( "50" + "50" ); [COLOR="Green"]# Result = "5050"[/COLOR]
For commenting the code, we can use the sign character (#), only line comment was supported, just like an unix shell comment sintax:
Code:
[B]# This is comments[/B]
function_name("Lorem ipsum dolore…");
Code writing isn't strict, so we can safely use space or new line between function and arguments:
Code:
function_name(
"First Argument",
getvar("config"),
"Third Argument"
);
The functions in Edify Script can returned values. But just like an arguments, it's only supported string type data. The good thing is this String can be converted into Boolean for conditions need. The string with contents will have true Boolean, and the empty string will have false Boolean.
"" = false
"1" = true
"yes" = true
"no" = true
"0" = true
Control StructuresEdify only supported limited control structure. Only if, and if else supported. But this control structures is enough to make an interactive installer. The basic sintax of if structure is:
Code:
if
"comparison"=="comparison"
then
.. commands ..
endif;
And for if else structure is:
Code:
if
"comparison"=="comparison"
then
.. true commands ..
else
.. false commands ..
endif;
We don't have any looping control structure, the Next and Back features in Wizard UI was handled by program automatically.Comparison & Logical OperatorsEdify script doesn't supporting arithmetic operators, but it supported simple comparison and logical operators, Just like other programming languages base on C (java, php, javascript). It use simple operator sintax:
Code:
# Equal
val1 == val2
# Not Equal
val1 != val2
# Or
val1 || val2
# And
val1 && val2
# Not
!val1
# Logical & Comparison
(val1 == val2)||(val3 != val4)
(val1 == val2)&&(val3 != val4)
!((val1 == val2)&&(val3 != val4))
Yes, it doesn't support less than and greater than comparison, because it's only supported with string and Boolean string only. For Integer comparison use cmp function, but it's only supported in aroma-config script.String and Escape CharactersFortunately Edify support common string sintax. It's also supported escape characters for newline. The string in Edify defined with double quoted (") and ended with double quoted. Here the basic manipulation of string in Edify:
Code:
# Newline use \n:
"Hi, AROMA Installer is\nAWSOME!!!"
# Concat multiple lines:
"Lorem Ipsum Dolore sit\n"+
"Amet, lorem ipsum dolore\n"+
"sit amet, lorem ipsum\n"+
"dolore sit amet."
# Escape Characters:
"You can add\tTabs, \" Quote, \\ Backslash…"
# Hex Characters:
"It was character A : \x41"
Not Supported Operators in EdifyThere is a lot of operator features in common programming languages that not supported by edify, like assignment operator for inserting something into variable, bitwise operator for manipulating bits within integer, and arithmetic operators for doing simple math calculations.
All this limited has been added via functions (except bitwise), but only available for aroma-config script, and only simple operations supported.
What UI's AROMA Installer Supported
AROMA Installer had 4 main type of Customizable User Interfaces, the Wizard UI, Dialog UI, Splash UI and Installer UI. And un-customizable Menu UI for selecting About, Help, Tools and Quit Installer.Wizard UI
The Wizard UI was the main User Interface in AROMA Installer, it's contain Back and Next button in navigation bar just like Computer common Installer programs (Windows Installer, NSIS Install System, InstallShield). Users can navigate trough the screens, or back to previous screens if something not right in configurations. Users can select Typical or Customize installations, and Users can customize what packages to install.
AROMA Installer support many Wizard UI, and here the completed list of it's UI:
checkbox – UI to show checkboxes in groupable list, the selected items will be saved in prop format, and can be accessed with file_getprop.
selectbox – It's like checkbox, but it's only able to check 1 items per group.
textbox – It will show the textbox, you can read text file to show it into the textbox
viewbox – It's like Textbox, but not scrollable, and only supported limited text length
agreebox – It's like Textbox, but with agree checkbox, user can't step to next page if the checkbox not already checked. Useful to show License or Terms of Use Interface.
menubox – This UI will show list of menu to select, there is no Next button, because when User select the item, it will automatically step into next page. And The selected menu will be saved in temporary prop file.
Dialog UIWhile Wizard UI will shown it's interface in Fullscreen, the Dialog UI will shown it's interface in Popup Window, It was useful for some needs, like show confirmation for "Are You Sure want to format the partitions?", or show Alert Dialog for "Thanks for using my ROM". Here the complete list of Dialog UI in AROMA Installer:
alert – Show popup dialog, with limited text length and Only the OK button.
confirm – Show popup dialog, with limited text length and contains 2 customizable Button "Yes" and "No", with return value true for "Yes" and false for "No".
textdialog – Show scrollable text popup dialog, with long text length support and Only OK Button.
Splash UIThis UI Simply show the Splash Screen from png files with custom delay before it show next page. The image will automatically position in center of screen depended from it's image size. The background will be blended in blur and darkest color.Installer UIWhen configuration invoke the install UI, it will start an installation, and show the installer UI with description text on top window, textbox for installer information in middle, and progress text and bar in bottom of screen. The installation will not cancelable, and there is no buttons or menu to select before installation finished, The Next and Save Logs button will be shown after installation finished. And next Wizard UI can't do Back command beyond this installer UI, so the Installer UI will only shown once time only in flash process.
What Functions AROMA Installer SupportedThere is so many functions that you can used for your needs, The available functions was the common functions that may be usable for installations, but not supported very complex things. AROMA Installer support simple comparison, math, system partition information, and simple set and get variables.
Here the list of functions that you can used:

This deserves some mad props. I've used your installer on sebastiaan's Runnymede ROM, and it's made installing the ROM an absolutely astonishing experience to which no other install script can even compare.
Congratulations!

It still works with volume keys or trackpad/navigation... The generic CWM include Touch Driver. so It will works in almost all recoveries (ofcourse except the recovery with trimmed kernel). But the devices had different calibrating data, so ROM Chef should try to calibrate the device use "menu"->Calibrating Tools in Installer...

Can You navigate trough the items??
What default keys you used in recovery to select items?
Currently the selection keys was:
BTN_MOUSE, KEY_ENTER, KEY_CENTER, KEY_CAMERA, KEY_F21, KEY_SEND
Maybe I should include POWER Button to select something.
Navigation can be used with:
KEY_DOWN, KEY_UP, KEY_VOLUMEDOWN, KEY_VOLUMEUP
I will rebuild it now...
Try attached file: To Make the touch screen works, run the Calibrating Tools, then edit aroma-config file in "META-INF\com\google\android"
NOTE: Calibrating data included in the binary was for HTC Desire, to change it, check this line in aroma-config:
Code:
##
# Calibrate Touchscreen
# defaut: HTC Desire Touch Screen Calibrate Data 8,-20,8,-20
#
# For other device, run the installer, then press "menu"
# and select Calibrating Tools. Follow Instructions, and make
# sure the touch screen has been valid in the testing step.
#
# In the end, there will be alert dialog with calibration data
# ( green ), replace this calibrate() function with that data.

calibrate("8","-20","8","-20");

can you move the circle in the end of calibrating?.. In alert Dialog, there is script data like this: calibrate("8","-20","8","-20");
The code should be included in aroma-cofig

Hi
i work on my first app, the info-part is finished. now i want add a simple question/answer-part. the first part with button for answers and questions works fine, but with the checkboxes i have some problems.
i want two or three solutions for one question, wich can be choose if i am click on one of these checkboxes. the answer is showing up in MessageBox and work so far, but the checkbox don't be cleared!?
What i have to do, to clear the checkbox. please help me! i don't know so much about the source-code c#, so every explanation will help me! Thanks!
xaml.cs
Code:
private void checkBox6_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Richtig!");
checkBox6.?? = checkBox6.??;
}
private void checkBox7_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Richtig!");
checkBox7.?? = checkBox7.??;
}
xaml
Code:
<TextBlock Height="73" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="13,489,0,0" Name="DerTextblock13" VerticalAlignment="Top" TextWrapping="Wrap" Width="436" FontSize="22">Question?</TextBlock>
<CheckBox Content="YES" Height="72" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="5,518,0,0" Name="checkBox6" VerticalAlignment="Top" Checked="checkBox6_Checked" />
<CheckBox Content="NO" Height="72" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,518,18,0" Name="checkBox7" VerticalAlignment="Top" Checked="checkBox7_Checked" />
Just need to change the IsChecked property.
checkbox6.IsChecked = false;
hi
thanks for your comment.. i have read and search about "checkbox6.IsChecked = false;" and test it, but it doesn't work. i got this error in attached image.. checkbox6 is in content not available, but there is in content the checkbox6 (Name="checkbox6" and Checked="checkBox6_Checked")..
so i still don't know, why i get this error.. sorry for my stupid question..
Control names are case sensitive. It should be checkBox6.IsChecked = false;
oh man, what a stupid error.. thanks, case sensitive was the right keyword!
how can i change background-image for other xaml-site
hi
i don`t want open a new thread, so i ask here.
new problem! how can i change the background-image for an other xaml-site?
i searched a lot and find a lot, but nothing show me exactly how i can realize this.
in the source-code below, you see that i can change the background-image for example on mainpage.xaml.
Now i want integrate in my setting.xaml and settings.xaml.cs the same checkboxes to change the background-image on the mainpage.xaml.
What i have to do? Thanks for help!
xaml.cs
Code:
private void checkBox2_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Uri uriR = new Uri("image/angler.png", UriKind.Relative);
BitmapImage imgSource = new BitmapImage(uriR);
this.imagechange.Source = imgSource;
checkBox1.IsChecked = false;
}
private void checkBox1_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Uri uriR = new Uri("image/new-background.png", UriKind.Relative);
BitmapImage imgSource = new BitmapImage(uriR);
this.imagechange.Source = imgSource;
checkBox2.IsChecked = false;
}
xaml
Code:
<CheckBox Content="Hintergrund" Height="72" Margin="54,-33,0,0" Name="checkBox2" Checked="checkBox2_Checked" Width="163" FontSize="18" />
<CheckBox Content="Hintergrund 2" Height="72" Margin="0,-33,49,0" Name="checkBox1" Checked="checkBox1_Checked" Width="187" FontSize="18" />
Well done very good
Not sure if it's the best way, but one option would be to store the value you want to use in IsolatedStorageSettings. Then, when the page loads, it checks the value in ISS and applies that background (in its OnNavigatedTo event handler is probably best).

thanks, i have found a code to read an image in IsolatedStorage.. see below..
but i got a error.. i found a example-project, all works fine and i can read a image-file from IsolatedStorage. but in my app it doesn't work and i got these error..
also i had added the namespaces in xaml.cs
using System.IO.IsolatedStorage;
using System.IO;
xaml.cs
xaml-code
Code:
<Image x:Name="imagechange" Margin="30,62,38,204" Stretch="Fill" />
<Button Content="lesen" Height="72" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="269,533,0,0" x:Name="lesen" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="160" FontSize="19" Click="lesen_Click" />
vs 2010 are showing no faults in debugmodus! But if i click on button "lesen", i got the attached error. Please, where is the fault or what i have to do now?
does anyone has a idea about my described problem. sorry for my stupid questions, but that's all new for me and i want to learn it..
Do you have actual file "logo.jpg" on your ISF? Insert before opening:
if (myIsolatedStorage.FileExists("logo.jpg"))
{

hi
i had added your comment to source-code.. now, nothing happen, if i click on the button for reading the file from isolated storage..
how can i add the file "logo.jpg" to isolated storage?? i thought, i only have to put the file to my current project, like i did it with other images and then i can save or read the file to isolated storage.
I think this must be the fault. How can manage it? thanks..
Code:
private void lesen_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
using (IsolatedStorageFile myIsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
if (myIsolatedStorage.FileExists("logo.jpg"))
using (IsolatedStorageFileStream fileStream = myIsolatedStorage.OpenFile("logo.jpg", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
bi.SetSource(fileStream);
this.imagechange.Height = bi.PixelHeight;
this.imagechange.Width = bi.PixelWidth;
}
}
this.imagechange.Source = bi;

You may try to:
- download image from network and save to isf;
- copy from resource stream to isf;
- manually upload file to the app ISF using ISETool.exe or third-party tool.

Wrong assumption.
P.S. Try this (btw, it's a first google link!): http://technodave.wordpress.com/201...ge-for-local-html-content-on-windows-phone-7/
hi
thanks a lot, it works... the first comment you have written are right..
i only have to save it first to isolated storage, before i can read the file.
thanks for your explanation to add files to ISF.. i have serach for that topic, but found nothing that describe how to added to ISF.. thanks for the link... i will read this in the evening...
now i have to find out, how i can change a image on a other site(xaml). than i can change for example in my setting.xaml the background in the mainpage.xaml
every day i learn new things, that's really exciting...

Sorry, I didn't read the whole thread before answering; seems like you are digging in the wrong direction. You don't need to use ISF (but it was a good practice for you), all you need is just a dynamical binding.
I'm too lazy to type code sample for you but (he-he!), our good friend google.com returned a good link for you http://www.eugenedotnet.com/2011/05...-property-in-silverlight-and-windows-phone-7/
P.S. Experience to use google should be "the must" in developer's experience.
entry Text in new line
Hi
i use google, my best friend, for a lot of my questions. but sometimes i don't know the right searchkeywords to do what i want to do (like image binding).
i have a new small problem. in my app i have 4 textboxes, that i use to write in some data. These 4 textboxes, i write to isolated storage in a textfile and let them summarized showing up in a textblock. This works fine.
Now, if i want write a new entry, these entry is written directly after the first entry.
example like is insert in textblock
Code:
▷Text - Text - Text - Text| ▷Text - Text - Text - Text|
But i want that the entry is written in a new line? How can i do this?
example like i want it
Code:
▷Text - Text - Text - Text|
▷Text - Text - Text - Text|
i know that i can create new lines with \n , \r\n and Environment.NewLine.
Code:
IsolatedStorageFile myIsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
//create new file
using (StreamWriter writeFile = new StreamWriter(new IsolatedStorageFileStream("fangbuch.txt", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, myIsolatedStorage)))
{
string someTextData = text.Text + "▷" + datum.Text + " - " + fisch.Text + " - " + größe.Text + "cm" + " - " + gewicht.Text + "Kg" + " | " + "\r\n";
writeFile.WriteLine(someTextData);
writeFile.Close();
}
if i use one of the elements to create a new line, like is showing in code above, the new (second) entry overwrite the first entry. What can i do now? thanks for your help.
You're using FileMode.Create, which will overwrite an existing file. You need to either use FileMode.OpenOrCreate and then seek to the end of the file, or you need to use FileMode.Append (this is the preferred approach).
Additionally, the StreamWriter.WriteFile function automatically appends a newline for you. There's no need to have them manually placed at the end of your text string.

Q: How auto translation works?
A: Select elements in grid which you want to translate and press "Auto translate" button on toolbar. If language on which you are working known to Google Translate service then application will start in background element by element translate selections. In any moment you can cancel that operation.
Q: After translation instead of unicode symbols I saw white boxes, what to do?
A: That often happens due to usage of fonts that does not support properly you localization symbols. To solve this open "Options" of application and change font to proper one. Application will remember your choice for future.
Q: Application fails all the time, what to do?
A: Application on fall shows message box to you and save the same information into LOG file. LOG file can be found in application folder. Please send us that LOG file and we will try to fix problem ASAP.
Q: How to create skipped elements?
A: At the current moment application does not support <skip/> tag. You should wait next release or modify sources of the project;
Q: Application searching for "notepad++.exe", but I don't have it. How to fix that?
A: You have two choices. change external editor settings or install Notepad++, First: Application has "aiLocalization.exe.config" file; In it you have to find section "ExternalEditor" and place there editor on your choice. Second: go by link Notepad++ and download it.
Q: I saw that application has customized Copyright in output XML. How to change it?
A: You have to edit application configuration file "aiLocalization.exe.config" and find in it section "Copyright".
Q: I set application folder correctly but tool does not recognize my Android project, what to do?
A: Application is searching for "AndroidManifest.xml" file in project. If application can not find it then it think that project does not belong to Android sources at all. So please check file existence.

WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
byte[] resultBin = webClient.DownloadData( url );
string charset = webClient.ResponseHeaders[ "Content-Type" ];
charset = charset.Substring( charset.LastIndexOf( '=' ) + 1 );
Encoding transmute = Encoding.GetEncoding( charset );
string result = transmute.GetString( resultBin );

hi, I have introduced the modifications and another useful thing, the text path for locating the decompiled apk folder. So this way one can copy and paste the path, which normally is tedious to find by browsing.
I have tried and it translates very well, congrats to the developers!!

hi, I have introduced the modifications and another useful thing, the text path for locating the decompiled apk folder. So this way one can copy and paste the path, which normally is tedious to find by browsing.
I have tried and it translates very well, congrats to the developers!!

Click to expand...

It would have been nice if you also provided the modified source files for download.
Besides that, it is pretty sad that xml tags are not really preserved. For example: the tag formatted="false" is not kept.
This can be really annoying.
What kind of license does it have? Maybe i can upload modified sources on google code like site?
