How to Convert #RGBto #RRGGBB - android

I have to convert a color string in the format #RGB to #RRGGBB like #0af To #RRGGBB now can any one help out here using android

One way is:
String rgb = "#0AF";
String rrggbb = "#";
for (int i = 1; i < rgb.length(); i++) {
rrggbb += (rgb.charAt(i) + "" + rgb.charAt(i));
}

int newRgb = 17 * (((oldRgb & 0xF00) << 8) | ((oldRgb & 0xF0) << 4) | (oldRgb & 0xF));

String hexColor = String.format("#%06X", (0xFFFFFF & intColor));
thats what i was searching. It will ensure that color string always will be #RRGGBB.

Why when reading NFCtag with Android phone you get different tag ID then when reading with dedicated reader?

I am using an Android Cilico F750 and the dedicated RFID reader is CF-RS103.
The RFID tag type is MIFARE Ultralight type C.
When read with a dedicated card reader the id of tag is: 2054270212(10 digit).
But when read with Android phone the id is: 36139312876727556(17digit) and reversed id is: 1316602805183616 (16digit).
Does anyone know why this happens and if its possible to convert the 10digit id to 17digit id or vice versa.
I use intents to detect tag and to resolve intent I use this:
public void resolveIntent(Intent intent){
String action = intent.getAction();
if(NfcAdapter.ACTION_TAG_DISCOVERED.equals(action)
||NfcAdapter.ACTION_TECH_DISCOVERED.equals(action)
||NfcAdapter.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED.equals(action))
{
Parcelable[] rawMsgs = intent.getParcelableArrayExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_NDEF_MESSAGES);
NdefMessage[] msgs;
if(rawMsgs!=null)
{
msgs= new NdefMessage[rawMsgs.length];
for(int i=0; i<rawMsgs.length; i++)
{
msgs[i]=(NdefMessage) rawMsgs[i];
}
}
else
{
byte[] empty = new byte[0];
byte[] id = intent.getByteArrayExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_ID);
Tag tag = (Tag) intent.getParcelableExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_TAG);
byte[] payload = dumpTagData(tag).getBytes();
NdefRecord record = new NdefRecord(NdefRecord.TNF_UNKNOWN,empty,id,payload);
NdefMessage msg = new NdefMessage(new NdefRecord[]{record});
msgs= new NdefMessage[] {msg};
}
displayMsgs(msgs);
}}
And this are my helper functions:
private void displayMsgs(NdefMessage[] msgs)
{
if(msgs==null || msgs.length==0) {
return;
}
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
List<ParsedNdefRecord> records= NdefMessageParser.parse(msgs[0]);
final int size = records.size();
for(int i=0;i<size;i++)
{
ParsedNdefRecord record = records.get(i);
String str = record.str();
builder.append(str).append("\n");
}
text.setText(builder.toString());
}
private String dumpTagData(Tag tag) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
byte[] id = tag.getId();
sb.append("ID (hex): ").append(toHex(id)).append('\n');

sb.append("ID (dec): ").append(toDec(id)).append('\n');
sb.append("ID (reversed dec):").append(toReversedDec(id)).append('\n');
String prefix = "android.nfc.tech.";
sb.append("Technologies: ");
for (String tech: tag.getTechList()) {
sb.append(tech.substring(prefix.length()));
sb.append(", ");
}
sb.delete(sb.length() - 2, sb.length());
for (String tech: tag.getTechList()) {
if (tech.equals(MifareClassic.class.getName())) {
sb.append('\n');

sb.append('\n');
sb.append("Mifare sectors: ");
sb.append(mifareTag.getSectorCount());
sb.append('\n');
sb.append("Mifare blocks: ");
sb.append(mifareTag.getBlockCount());
} catch (Exception e) {
sb.append("Mifare classic error: " + e.getMessage());

sb.append(type);
}
}
return sb.toString();
}

if (i > 0) {

}
}
return sb.toString();
}
private String toReversedHex(byte[] bytes) {

EDIT: I managed to resolve this issue by truncating the 7-byte HEX ID to 4-bytes.
And then formating the decimal ID if its total lenght is less than 10 digits with this statement that basically adds zeroes from left side if DEC ID is smaller than 10 digits:
String strFinal=String.format("%010d", Long.parseLong(str));
This document that describes how the ID is converted from HEX8 TO DEC10 helped me alot aswell: https://www.batag.com/download/rfidreader/LF/RAD-A200-R00-125kHz.8H10D.EM.V1.1.pdf
And a huge thanks to #Andrew and #Karam for helping me resolve this!
The card reader on the PC is configured wrong, it is configured by default to display the ID as 10 digit decimal number (4 byte) when the card has a 7 byte ID.
It thus has to loose some data, it is doing this by truncating the ID to the first 4 bytes of the 7 byte ID
Use the software on the PC change the output format to something suitable for the ID size on the Mifare Ultralight C cards (8 Hex?)
or
Use Mifare Classic cards instead as these had 4 byte ID
or
truncate the 7 byte ID to 4 bytes e.g. change bytes.length to 4 (a hard coding to the first 4 bytes in the 7 byte ID) in your code and handle the fact that there is a very large number (around 16.7 million) of Mifare Ultralight C cards that will seem to have the same "ID" as you want to display it
This is because the spec's give by a seller on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chafon-CF-RS103-Multiple-Support-Compatible-Black/dp/B017VXVZ66 (I cannot find any details on the manufacturer's site)
It says "Default output 10 digit Dec, control output format through software. "
"Support with windows,linux and android system, but can only set output format in windows pcs.No programming and software required, just plug and play. "
The only sensible answer is move everything to use a 7 byte ID.
I don't know why are you trying always to convert to decimal?
and please try to explain more about the code you use to read the UID.
about your numbers and to convert 17 digits to 10 digits; I convert both of them to Hex:
36139312876727556(17digit) in Hex : 8064837A71AD04.
2054270212(10 digit) in Hex: 7A71AD04
as you notice you can just tirm first three bytes to get the 10 digits.
and I do belive the both of them are not the UID. but the 7bytes as sayed Andrew, and you already read it in the your photo : (04:B5:71:7A:83:64:80)
So I think the answer is that because you are converting a 7 byte ID to decimal you are getting variable lengths of numbers because of the conversion to decimal.
"The byte data type is an 8-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -128 and a maximum value of 127 (inclusive)."
From https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/datatypes.html
Could generate a decimal number with 1,2 or 3 characters thus as decimal the id can vary in length.
It also looks like that conversion is going wrong as in theory it should have negative numbers in there as well.
It is much better to handle it as a hex string if you want it to be human readable.
The correct method in Java to convert the 2 pages of the ID to hex is
StringBuilder Uid;
for (int i = 0; i < result.length; i++) {
// byte 4 is a check byte
if (i == 3) continue;
Uid.append(String.format("%02X ", result[i]));
}
Note as per the spec sheet of the card https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/data-sheet/MF0ICU2_SDS.pdf (Section 7.3.1)
There is check byte that is part of the ID, while this will always be the same on the same card and will still give you a unique ID it is technically not part of the ID.
Or if not reading at a low level then
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/nfc/Tag#getId()
will get you the id.
Note that the "36139312876727556(17digit) and reversed id" when converted to hex and reversed actual is 7 bytes and start with the right number.
The 10 digit just looks like the first 4 bytes of the 7 byte number also reversed.

Arduino send long string to Android

I'm trying to send long String to Android via bluetooth.
but,
It looks like the picture.
some characters are changed.
how can I get an exact full string?
arduino code :
for(int i=0;i<16;i++){
String rec = String(P[i], HEX);
if(rec.length()<2) rec = "0"+rec;
BTSerial.println(rec);
delay(50);
P is a byte array. Thanks.
Try it without String objects:
// return '0' .. 'F'
char hexnibble(byte nibble) {
nibble &= 0x0F; // just to be sure
if (nibble > 9) return 'A' + nibble - 10;
else return '0' + nibble;
}
void loop() {
byte P[16];
// ... fill P somehow ...
char rec[33];
for(int i=0;i<16;i++){
rec[2*i] = hexnibble(P[i] >> 4);
rec[2*i+1] = hexnibble(P[i] & 0x0F);
}
rec[32] = 0; // string terminator
Serial.println(rec); // just for debugging
delay(1000);
}

format a string with fill places

I have setup an edittext box and set the maxlength to 10. When I copy the edittext to a string myTitles. I need the myTiles to be 10 chars long and not dependent on what is entered in the edittext box.
myTitles[0] = TitlesEdit.getText().toString();
The edittext was filled with ABCD so I need to add 6 spaces or placeholders after the ABCD. I have seen other post with str_pad and substr without success
myTitles[0] = str_pad(strTest, 0, 10);
myTitles[0] = substr(strTest,0, 10);
Try something like
public static String newString(String str) {
for (int i = str.length(); i <= 10; i++)
str += "*";
return str;
}
This will return a String with * replaced for the empty ones.
So, for eg, if your String is abcde, then on calling newString() as below
myTitles[0] = newString("abcde");
will return abcde***** as the output.
String s = new String("abcde");
for(int i=s.length();i<10;i++){
s = s.concat("-");
}
Then output your string s.
Thank you Lal, I use " " to fill and it worked fine. here is my new code.
String strTest = TitlesEdit.getText().toString();
for (int i = strTest.length(); i <= 10; i++) {
strTest += " ";
}
Log.d("TAG", "String" + strTest);
myTitles[intLinenumber] = strTest;

Can't get the right data I send

My code is :
String str= (char)255 + (char)255 +"1" ;
byte[] sendbuf = str.getBytes();
outputPacket = new DatagramPacket(sendbuf,sendbuf.length,remoteIP,2280);
logSocket.send(outputPacket);
the result I get is "0x35 0x31 0x30 0x31"
but what I want is :0xff 0xff 0x31
How to do this?
Your str is adding the two chars first, so it's basically this:
String str = (char)(255 + 255) + "1"; // 5101
What you want is (something like) this:
String str = (char) 255 + "" + (char) 255 + "1";
Or, using String.format:
String str = String.format("%c%c%d", 255, 255, 1);

UTRAN Cell Identity returned by getCid()

In UMTS I get a large number returned by getCid() (larger than the allowed value). Is this the UTRAN Cell Identity (UC-ID)?
UC-Id = RNC-Id + C-Id
Does someone knows that? How to get the C-Id from the UC-Id?
Thanks and Best,
Benny
The RNC id is the first 2 bytes of the 4 byte Cell Id (3GPP 25.401, section 6.1.5), if the network type is UMTS/HSxPA/HSPA+." I have access to an operator network and I checked in the system and it's true and correct.
Based on that please see my code how you can easily get RNCID + CID:Convert CID to ByteArray:
public static byte[] convertByteArray__p(int p_int){
byte[] l_byte_array = new byte[4];
int MASK_c = 0xFF;
for (short i=0; i<=3; i++){
l_byte_array[i] = (byte) ((p_int >> (8*i)) & MASK_c);
}
return l_byte_array;
}
Get the RNCID and CID:
public int getRNCID_or_CID__p(byte[] p_bytes, short p_which){
int MASK_c = 0xFF;
int l_result = 0;
if (p_which == Constants.CID_C) {
l_result = p_bytes[0] & MASK_c ;
l_result = l_result + ((p_bytes[1] & MASK_c ) << 8);
} else if (p_which == Constants.RNCID_C){
l_result = p_bytes[2] & MASK_c ;
l_result = l_result + ((p_bytes[3] & MASK_c ) << 8);
} else {
g_FileHandler.putLog__p('E', "getRNCID_or_CID__p invalid parameter");
}
return l_result;
}
Than you can easily call like this:
byte[] l_byte_array = new byte[4];
l_byte_array = convertByteArray__p(l_cid);
int l_RNC_ID = getRNCID_or_CID__p(l_byte_array,Constants.RNCID_C);
int l_real_CID = getRNCID_or_CID__p(l_byte_array,Constants.CID_C);
Constants RNCID_C(1) and CID_C(2) are only contants just for me to seperate which parameter will be passed through.
If CID is > 65536, it's not actually the cell-ID, but a linear combination of the real cell-ID and RNC-ID:
UTRAN_CELL_ID = RNCID x 65536 + CellID
To extract the cellID, use the modulo operation:
CellID = UTRAN_CELL_ID % 65536
To extract the RNCID, get the integer part:
RNCID = UTRAN_CELL_ID / 65536
try
(cell id % 65536)
it worked for me.
This is more simple than this. Cell ID is in the low register of the value getCid() returns, the RNC is the high register of this value (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/gsm/GsmCellLocation.html#getCid()).
So:
getCid() == RNC << 16 | CID
CID = getCid() & 0xffff
RNC = (getCid() >> 16) & 0xffff
