Matplotlib with Pydroid 3 on Android: how to see graph? - android

I'm currently using an Android device (of Samsung), Pydroid 3.
I tried to see any graphs, but it doesn't works.
When I run the code, it just shows me a black-blank screen temporarily and then goes back to the source code editing window.
(means that i can't see even terminal screen, which always showed me [Program Finished])
Well, even the basic sample code which Pydroid gives me doesn't show me the graph :(
I've seen many tutorials which successfully showed graphs, but well, mine can't do that things.
Unfortunately, cannot grab any errors.
Using same code which worked at Windows, so don't think the code has problem.
Of course, matplotlib is installed, numpy is also installed.
If there's any possible problems, please let me know.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
#draw something
plt.savefig("picturename.png")
Then you can find the picture file in your disk and open them manual.

I also had this problem a while back, and managed to fix it by using plt.show()
at the end of your code. With matplotlib.pyplot as plt.

I'm having similar problem with matplotlib in Pydroid3. My cellphone is a Motorola. In my case, the code executes completely without errors, but the plot window even opens.
Follow my code (of course seaborn (as sns) was installed and imported, as much matplotlib.pyplot as plt):
sns.regplot(x=score,y=target,data=df)
plt.show()

After reinstalling it worked.
The problem was that I forced Pydroid to update matplotlib via Terminal, not the official PIP tab.
The version of matplotlib was too high for pydroid

Yep, for Android I used as below and it worked :
#plt.show() // just comment out as it may not display from Pydroid Terminal anyway
plt.savefig('yourplot.jpg') // save plot as Jpeg file for Android
plt.close() // close matlab plotting

I got same problem.
Add "%matplotlib inline" while importing mathplotlib and/or seaborn.
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

You just need to add a line
plt.show()
Then it will work. You can also save the file before showing
plt.savefig("*imageName*.png")

like was said in other answers plt.show and plt.savefig will do the job; but when I wanted to see help(documentation) of matplotlib.pyplot, that wasn't working. so I saved my program and then run it in terminal:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
help (plt)
for example we can save it in newfile.py
and doing this in terminal:
python newfile.py

Git terminal goes crazy whenever I revise code or layout on android studio

As the title states I am making an app with android studio. I recently installed git as well in order to interface with GitHub. For some reason whenever I change the layout on the layout editor, or type more than 3 characters of code the git terminal opens up multiple windows, then they disappear, and I get no errors of any kind. It repeats indefinitely and I am really unable to get any work done because of it. Has anyone seen anything like this before and if so I would love any help I could get. Thank you! I tried to make this as detailed as possible hopefully it isn't too broad.

kivy import android doesnt work

I'm building a small project for my android phone using kivy. I am trying to get the android back key to do a make Toast saying 'press back again to exit', and then exit when the back key is pressed twice. I checked online and saw a tutorial on how to do this. I had to useimport android
but the problem is that it just doesn't work on my phone. Not on kivy launcher when i tested it. I even compiled to an android apk using buildozer, but it still doesn't work. Please im still very new to kivy and android api. Help me get this right. Or if there is another way to do this i also appreciate it. Please include an example in your response.
Hello guys I finally found the problem. The import android actually works.
The problem was that I used it wrongly . I was trying to do a makeToast like dis 'android.makeToast'. Evidently dat was wrong. Found out there was another way to do it with pyjnius.
Thanks so ooo much for your assistance

Android ActionBarCompat Not working from the start

OK, I have been wanting to try the new ActionBarCompat, however, I am not able to run my programs in the emulator.
I have been trying to implement the following: http://antonioleiva.com/actionbarcompat-how-to-use.
and have been stuck on basically the first part. However, working with the author of that content, I was able to get further as I was not adding the project under sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat folder like stated. However, I still think that might be the reason I cannot do this...
More detail can be found here: http://antonioleiva.com/actionbarcompat-how-to-use/#comment-43
Basically, on my first attempt, I just created an Android project, and changed the source code as indicated. Code would not run on the emulator. So I went back to the original code, and that ran on the emulator.
Checked online, found out I might need to add the \extras\android\support\v7\appcompat folder as a library to the project I am building. So I added that and a new android project was created. There were build errors from the start, but I failed at trying to add it as a library to my project, and deleted it....thinking this was way overboard.
After back and forth chats with author of linked website, I found out I had to do that overboard thing.
So I tried the following link to the T: (I cannot post more than 2 links due to low repuation...I will add this link as a comment below)
However, Eclipse would not allow me to add the appcompat Existing Android Project...but it did allow me to add the appcompat Existing (General) Project. I think this may be some of the problems??
Right now, I cannot run the project at all. Eclipse is showing a red exclamation mark on the project folder, but all the code seems to be fine. So I don't know what to do now...I recreated this project several times over, and this one was the one where I knew what to do...and I am still getting problems
So...
I decided to move to Android Studio...updated the IDE, updated the SDK manager to include the new support library, and other things. Created a new project, added to the build.gradle file as shown in the link provided below in the comment. I ran the ant build, and then built the project...tried to import the right things to allow ActionBarActivity, but I could not get that far.
I can import
"android.support.v7.*"
"android.support.vy.R" // and all folders within
but nothing allows me to add ActionBarActivity, and I don't know why.
FYI, I guess I would prefer a solution to Ecplise, as it seems like I actually got somewhere with it.
The best example to use is from here, and I would follow it closely. I had similiar issues when I first came across this. Problem was I misunderstood what I needed to do

Show "All Instances" missing in eclipse debug view

few days ago, when I was debugging an Android project under eclipse I've found some great functionality: "All instances..." and "Instance count". I wanted to share my findings with rest of my colleagues, but none of them had this functionality in their eclipse install (we all use eclipse 3.7).
What's even more weird now I'm also missing this functionality.
As far as I can tell this functionality is build within eclipse from version 3.3 and available to projects using Java 1.6 and above as mentioned here and here (we're using 1.6).
See bottom of this link to see what functionality I'm talking about. It even has it's own shortcut in options (ctrl+shift+n) so I think there must be a way to use it again.
I was looking for it while debugging and while the debugger was in "stopped" state.
Anyone can help me put eclipse in right view/perspective/state to see this functionality again?
EDIT
Here is the documentation entry from eclipse help page: link
Thanks for any suggestions,
kajman
After some more digging I came to following conclusion:
DalvikVM does not support "instance retrieval".
On eclipse help page mentioned in EDIT section it written:
This command is only available if the Java virtual machine you are currently using supports instance retrieval.
Maybe there is an option to enable this option in DalvikVM, but I doubt it unfortunately.
Also when debugging on phone "Drop to frame" functionality is missing.

PhoneGap BarcodeScanner - ClassNotFound

UPDATE 2
I posted an answer that fixes my original problem. See that for more information.
UPDATE
FYI for anyone wondering, in the end I found this: http://github.com/commonsguy/zxingdemo/tree/master Exactly what I needed to get it rolling was a simple demo that worked! Also, thanks to Sean for pointing me in the right direction for my googling.
I am currently trying to build a simple android app that can scan in a barcode. I have looked through multiple tutorials, tried everything to a T, and re-tried and re-tried. Nothing worked. So now I am going to ask for assistance to see where I went wrong.
To list the tutorials I have followed:
https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/Android/BarcodeScanner
Tried this one first.
http://www.mobiledevelopersolutions.com/home/start/twominutetutorials/tmt3
http://simonmacdonald.blogspot.com/2011/12/installing-barcode-plugin-for-phonegap.html
Plus a couple others, but more or less hit the point to the same process. Some key points, when I add the LibraryProject to my project as a Library, the app will not compile until I create an AndroidManifest.xml I tried using the one found in the LibraryProject and tried creating a bare mininmal one, both would allow to compile, but the app ForceCloses.
When I load up the App and click "Scan" it ForceCloses and in the debug log of LogCat in Eclipse I get:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate activity
ComponentInfo{com.myapp/com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity}: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com.google.com.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity in loader dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[/data/app/com.myapp-1.apk]
I have tried googling, found a few issues, but no real clear or solid answers, most just point to the tutorials above. I am not sure if the tutorials are just outdated or I am being stupid and am missing something key. Been working on this for a few days now and am at my wits end.
If you can help I would appreciate it. To avoid answers regarding if I have done X or X, here is what I have done.
When I test the application, I do briefly see it trying to load BarcodeScanner, but right after I see that it ForceCloses. I am not sure what I am missing, but for references I will post the code I currently have setup to test:
AndroidManifest.xml - http://pastebin.com/qq9q0ZU7
Plugins.xml - http://pastebin.com/dZ5eKPSU
index.html - http://pastebin.com/wvht4ken
If I need to post any other items let me know.
On Android, it is much much simpler than all this you're trying to do. Throw this out and restart from http://code.google.com/p/zxing/wiki/ScanningViaIntent
Ok, so for anyone having this problem, you have two choices. You can use the ScanningViaIntent, as Sean pointed out. It works great, if you need an example look at CommonsGuy. As for the tutorials I posted above to get this working with PhoneGap, my whole problem was, after I imported the LibraryProject I did not go back through and add the files. I am not sure if a setting in my Eclipse is bad. But I basically just right clicked on the LibraryProject, went to Import -> File Structure -> Library Project's original project path, and loaded all of it back in there.
There is probably something wrong with my Eclipse setup, but yea. I now have the BarcodeScanner plugin for PhoneGap working!
