[Q][VB.NET] Access remote XML services

EDIT: Development continued Working hard
Hello everyone
I'm trying to port my WIP Infosode from Android (Adobe AIR) to Windows Phone 7, and I have some big problems figuring out how to access a remote XML service, in this case http://services.tvrage.com/
I've used Visual Basic .NET for both desktop and Windows Mobile applications and now for WP7, so I got some VB.NET experience.
Any help is appreciated and will be noted in the finished application.
Regards

Here is one somewhat dirty way.
Download your data (xml) into the isolated storage. After that process the xml file stored.
Code:
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(client_DownloadStringCompleted);
client.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri("http://path.to/the/" + item + ".xml/"));
static void client_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
// If we have results
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(e.Result))
{
#region Save to Isolated Storage
try
{
// Isolated Storage Directory
string xmlStorageDirectory = "Profiles";
using (IsolatedStorageFile store = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
// File Path
string filePath = Path.Combine(xmlStorageDirectory, String.Format("{0}.xml", ActiveID));
// Check if the Directory exists. If not create it
if (!store.DirectoryExists(xmlStorageDirectory))
{
store.CreateDirectory(xmlStorageDirectory);
}
// Use Isolated Storeage to write the file
using (IsolatedStorageFileStream fileStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream(filePath, FileMode.Create, store))
{
// Use the stream to write the file
using (StreamWriter stream = new StreamWriter(fileStream))
{
stream.Write(e.Result.Replace(" & ", " & "));
}
}
}
}
// OMG EXCEPTIONS :(
catch (IsolatedStorageException exception)
{
throw exception;
}
#endregion
#region Reading
using (var appStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
using (var file = appStorage.OpenFile("Profiles/" + ActiveID + ".xml", FileMode.Open))
{
XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(file);
CharacterDataModel profile = new CharacterDataModel();
List<PlayerTraitsModel> traits = new List<PlayerTraitsModel>();
PlayerTraitsModel trait = new PlayerTraitsModel();
bool isCdata = false;
bool isPdata = false;
// While we read the data
while (reader.Read())
{
#region Character
if (reader.Name == "cdata") isCdata = true;
if (isCdata)
{
if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
{
#region Check for the following values and shallow copy that to the model
//string item = reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
switch (reader.Name)
{
case "id":
profile.id = reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
break;
}
#endregion
}
}
if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.EndElement && reader.Name.Contains("cdata"))
isCdata = false;
#endregion
}
}
}
#endregion
}
}

Thanks for that
Will try to adopt it to VB.NET and see if it will work
At least it's something that I could use until I find a better way.

Hi,
Use the OpenReadCompleted event of the WebClient, and then put the result into an XDocument by using an XmlReader; from there it's easy to process it (using LINQ to XML) without having to store the XML anywhere first (i.e. do it all in memory). Here's kind of how I do it C#.
Code:
WebClient client = new WebClient();
// Set up the 'completed' event before loading anything
client.OpenReadCompleted += (sender, e) =>
{
if (e.Error != null)
{
if (e.Error is WebException)
{
... Either a connection error, or an invalid status code has been returned. You can determine which using code.
}
else
... // some other exception
return;
}
// Turn the result into an XDocument and parse using LINQ
try
{
Stream aStream = e.Result;
XmlReader anXmlStream = XmlReader.Create(aStream);
XDocument ourXDocument = XDocument.Load(anXmlStream);
// Parse the XML here - best to use 'Linq to XML' to do it
List<TvShow> TVShows = from aShow in ourXDocument.Descendants("show")
select new TvShow() {
ShowName = aShow.Element("name").Value,
Link = aShow.Element("link").Value
};
//////////////////
str.Close();
// if here it all went to plan
}
catch (XmlException xe)
{
...
}
catch (Exception ge)
{
...
}
};
// Here's the bit that actually sets it going
try
{
client.OpenReadAsync(new Uri(URL, UriKind.Absolute));
}
catch (OutOfMemoryException)
{
... Handle the exception
}
catch (StackOverflowException)
{
... Handle the exception
}
catch (Exception ge)
{
... Handle the exception
}
If you're doing this kind of thing a lot it's good to set it up as reusable class that either has it's own events (e.g. ItemsLoaded, ErrorOccured, and ProcessItems) that can be subscribed to, or if you prefer you can have them as methods to override so that you can use it as a web service loading base class from which you can inherit.
Hope that helps. Good luck with it

I'm building a class with functions for fetching and storing the returned XML requests.
It's smart to store it in the IsoStorage so that the data is available offline as well and it will only download the new XML's if it's updated on the server
I think it will make the application a bit more useful.
Regards
EDIT: I've tried to port the first example from MJCS to VB.Net without success. The app closes itself when it's supposed to search and get results from the server. The URL to the generated XML (including parameters) is http://services.tvrage.com/feeds/search.php?key=[MY_API_KEY]&show=[SHOW_NAME]
The code as for now is this:
Code:
Public Function Search(ByVal SearchString As String) As String
Dim Url As New Uri(XMLUrl & "feeds/search.php?key=" & APIKey & "&show=" & SearchString)
'XMLUrl = http://services.tvrage.com/
'APIKey = My API key from TVRage.com
'SearchString = The showname to be searched for in the database
XML.DownloadStringAsync(Url)
Return 0
End Function
Any ideas?

[Q] Alawyas report network not available when using NewtorkInfo program

0 down vote favorite
share [g+] share [fb] share [tw]
I have wrote a program to check if the network is available or not. Here is my simple code:
Code:
public boolean isNetworkAvailable() {
Context context = getApplicationContext();
ConnectivityManager connectivity=ConnectivityManager)context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
if (connectivity == null) {
boitealerte(this.getString(R.string.alert),"getSystemService rend null");
} else {
NetworkInfo[] info = connectivity.getAllNetworkInfo();
if (info != null) {
for (int i = 0; i < info.length; i++) {
if (info[i].getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED) {
return true;
}
}
}
}
return false;
}
I run it on my Android phone, it always returns false but the network is available and I can make calls. Any suggestions>.

Hello XDA. I am a noob and have little experience at best with these type of files and the content within them. I found this document in es explorer and have no idea how it arrived there. However, I do have a grasp on what the word snoop means. Whether it's nothing or something, I would greatly appreciate any insight from a member belonging to this site to shed some light on what this in particular document is saying, as well as what dsnoop represents and why it exists. I may be getting overly concerned for no reason but some schooling from XDA would be huge. Thank u.

Question Trying to make Viper4Android work (S908E)

Hi. I have a S908E (rooted snapdragon) and I'm trying for more than a week, nonstop, to make Viper4Android work in my device. It keepa asking for drivers everytime I open the app.
At first, I tried every post that I could find where people said that it worked. That includes several modules and V4A apps/zip, like: Audio Modification Library, JamesDSP, Audio Compatibility Patch, Viper4AndroidFX app, V4A 2.7.2.1, Shadowstep fix. And some other .zip fixes to flash via magisk.
Always removing every audio module and uninstalling V4A for each try. Got no result, Viper4Android still asks for drivers.
So, I realised that to get it to work, i need to know what exactly is the source of the problem in my phone and how to fix it.
With help of other users, I got to know a bit more about v4a and its files.
It seems the main files are audio_effects.xml and audio_effects.conf.
The folders that has the .xml file are vendor/etc and vendor/etc/audio/sku_taro. System/vendor is the same as vendor/
Ok, I noticed that my files inside sku_taro didn't had any line related to v4a. So I got those files from vendor/etc and copied them inside sku_taro (via magisk, since I can't edit files there). Didn't work.
I noticed another issue: audio_effects.conf isn't modified to V4A and I'm not sure if it should. The V4A system folder in data/adb/modules/ doesn't have this .conf file. However, my S21+ (exynos) that had v4a working had this file with v4a lines.
So, my first question to keep going in this odyssey is: should audio_effects.conf be modified with V4A lines and should it be present in vendor/etc as well?
EDIT: Also, what should it have modified?
It isn't the same code as in my S21+ (tried that already).
If prints of the codes of the files or the content of foldera are needed, I can post here.

No one? Come on, let's make this amazing module work in our Snapdragons!
Ok, I'm sharing my audio_effects.conf files, in the case someone who understand better than me to give opinions.
This is the file that i got from a S21+ (Exynos) with working V4A:

I added the V4A lines marked (Bolded,underlined and red), with the same code from the file that were inside the S21+ (the file was named audio_effects_common.conf in Exynos, I renamed to audio_effects.conf before pasting in the S22U) file, and pasted the file inside vendor/etc as well, but got no luck:

System is still "Read Only"
So no luck achieving this yet. We gotta wait till a Kernel comes around.

Hm, what you mean? Can't we go around that with magisk? I was able to edit file systems. Doesn't V4A just need to read them?
Also, the S21+ also seems to have a RO system (couldn't even rename files inside vendor) and V4A worked just fine.

Just flashed Aurora ROM, which has RW System, and I still got driver installation loop. Are you sure this is the cause?

In terms of v4a i had to modify post-fs-data to get it working although i didnt had driver installation looping

Any working link for a newer version ?
I have System R/W now. I can check.

I've tried with R/W (permissive kernel & TWRP) - still get v4a install driver loop.
How did you get System R/W?
Links wise, try:

How to prevent opening status bar menu in android on Api 31

I could prevent opening the status bar in < API 31 , but in API 31 doesn't work
some codes are deprecated in this version like :
Code:
val closeIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS)
I used this code to prevent opening the status bar drawer :
JavaScript:
// To keep track of activity's window focus
var currentFocus = false
// To keep track of activity's foreground/background status
var isPaused = false
lateinit var collapseNotificationHandler: Handler
fun collapseNow() {
collapseNotificationHandler = Handler()
if (!currentFocus && !isPaused) {
collapseNotificationHandler.postDelayed(object : Runnable {
override fun run() {
// Use reflection to trigger a method from 'StatusBarManager'
val statusBarService = getSystemService("statusbar")
var statusBarManager: Class<*>? = null
try {
statusBarManager = Class.forName("android.app.StatusBarManager")
} catch (e: ClassNotFoundException) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
var collapseStatusBar: Method? = null
try {
// Prior to API 17, the method to call is 'collapse()'
// API 17 onwards, the method to call is `collapsePanels()`
collapseStatusBar = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 16) {
statusBarManager!!.getMethod("collapsePanels")
} else {
statusBarManager!!.getMethod("collapse")
}
} catch (e: NoSuchMethodException) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
if (collapseStatusBar != null) {
collapseStatusBar.setAccessible(true)
}
try {
if (collapseStatusBar != null) {
collapseStatusBar.invoke(statusBarService)
}
} catch (e: IllegalArgumentException) {
e.printStackTrace()
} catch (e: IllegalAccessException) {
e.printStackTrace()
} catch (e: InvocationTargetException) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
// Check if the window focus has been returned
// If it hasn't been returned, post this Runnable again
// Currently, the delay is 100 ms. You can change this
// value to suit your needs.
if (!currentFocus && !isPaused) {
collapseNotificationHandler.postDelayed(this, 100L)
}
}
}, 300L)
}
}
override fun onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus: Boolean) {
super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus)
currentFocus = hasFocus;
if (!hasFocus) {
collapseNow()
}
}
I review all of google developers docs for this problem but unfortunately google codes are deprecated and don't have a clear document for that

I used Device Manager for controlling status Bar but it's not true way, but I solved my problem with this method
