Chap 2, section: What Is ADB
Connecting to an Android Device Over WiFi |
Get "Unable to connect to 192.168.1.11:5555:5555" error message after I followed instructions to use "adb shell setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555" to set port (to 5555 in my case) for my device (at IP address 192.168.1.11).
When I do: "adb shell getprop | grep adb", I do see [service.adb.tcp.port]: [5555], so the port seems to be set ok. I believe the problem is that adb is still in USB mode.
What does seem to work are the following steps, following
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14357705/adb-over-wireless
adb tcpip 5555 (5555 is the default if no port number is specified in the 'connect' command used next)
adb connect 192.168.1.11 (for my device)
Now do: "adb devices", and see two devices listed.
If the usb cable is disconnected, "adb devices" show one device.
Extra credit: if the usb cable is not disconnected but only one real device is connected via usb and tcp, trying to switch back to USB mode must be done with something like:
adb -d usb
The -d flag is needed to direct the command to the only connected USB device, otherwise see "error: more than one device and emulator"

Chap 2, section: "Installing SASS"
End of 1st paragraph |
To install SASS from the command line, use the following command:
$ gem install sass
Above fails with "You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory.". Instead, use sudo in the Mac command below, then enter the Admin user password when prompted for it:
$ sudo gem install sass
Cheers,

Java code example |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN is typed twice in setFlags()
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
... }
Note from the Author or Editor:
Dear Reader,
This is not a mistake. According to Android API documentation, setFlags(int flags, int mask) takes two parameters.
