I am making an application in which I need to download a file from server and save it to sd card of android device.
Apart of this there is a feature for the user to pause and resume the file.
The problem I am facing is that I am able to download file to sdcard but when try to pause and resume it, it gets starts from the beginning.......
Here is the source ......
public class DownloadWithProgressActivity extends Activity {
public static final int DIALOG_DOWNLOAD_PROGRESS = 0;
private Button startBtn, pauseButton, resumeButton;
private ProgressBar bar;

connection.setRequestProperty("Range", "bytes=" + ***downloaded*** + "-");
Make "downloaded" as global variable, because download start from this position.
when you press on restart button, check value of this downloaded variable,must not zero all time.
This line return a wrong file size, I used the same code to open a Zip file on the net :
int lenghtOfFile = conexion.getContentLength();
How can I pause download other than by closing the output?
pauseButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
try {
output.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
resumeButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// not getting what to write here
}
});

I wish to pause the file download at a particular point and add some bytes of data to it and then resume the download. How do I do it?
Below is a code snippet showing what I am downloading :-
private void startDownload() {
String url = "http://coderzheaven.com/sample_folder/sample_file.png";
new DownloadFileAsync().execute(url);
}
Now, below is the DownloadFileAsync class
class DownloadFileAsync extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
showDialog(DIALOG_DOWNLOAD_PROGRESS);
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... aurl) {
int count;
try {
URL url = new URL(aurl[0]);
URLConnection conexion = url.openConnection();
conexion.connect();
int lenghtOfFile = conexion.getContentLength();
Log.d("ANDRO_ASYNC", "Length of file: " + lenghtOfFile);
InputStream input = new BufferedInputStream(url.openStream());
File SDCardRoot = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
//create a new file, to save the downloaded file
File file = new File(SDCardRoot,"downloaded_file.png");
OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream(file);
byte data[] = new byte[1024];
long total = 0;
while ((count = input.read(data)) != -1) {
total += count;
publishProgress("" + (int) ((total * 100) / lenghtOfFile));
output.write(data, 0, count);
}
output.flush();
output.close();
input.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
return null;
}
protected void onProgressUpdate(String... progress) {
Log.d("ANDRO_ASYNC", progress[0]);
mProgressDialog.setProgress(Integer.parseInt(progress[0]));
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String unused) {
dismissDialog(DIALOG_DOWNLOAD_PROGRESS);
}
}
connection.setRequestProperty("Range", "bytes=" + ***downloaded*** + "-");

You are trying to write to a socket stream from your main UI thread (from onClick), i would consider doing all socket communication from asynctask itself, or another thread if needed.
your connected variable is not being set, not sure if that was intentional, it can cause multiple execution of your bluetooth asynctask.
I have several files uploaded to my server , now what i am trying to do is i want to download all files one by one and save it in to one folder.
So basically i was trying to do something like [this][1] but some how i am not able to achieve this so i think an alternate way to do it. So i am planning to download all audio file of particular folder of server to my SD-card folder and then i will give path of SD-card to list-view and play that audio.
So basically my question is how can i download all file from server folder to my SD-card folder.
I have below piece of code which is working fine for single file.

Try follow steps,
Write a server side component which will return back the list of the files in the directory in which all the audio files are hosted.
In your downloadAudio class, instead of downloading a file, initially make a call to the component described above to get the list.
Move the code which you have written in an function which will take String argument.
Loop on the url list from step 2 and call function in step 3 with parameter as current element of url list.
Keep all checks and balances to ensure all the files are downloaded.
Your issue is more of design issue then programming.
I have solved the problem by adding ivy jar file as a library and then added following code.
try {
urlAudio = new URL("http://server/folder/uploadAudio");
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
ApacheURLLister lister1 = new ApacheURLLister();
try {
myList = lister1.listAll(urlAudio);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
The code creates a text file in local memory, but how do I get all files created by my application in a list view:
public class newfile extends Activity {
public EditText textBox,textbox2;
FileOutputStream fos=null;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.newfile);
Button save = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnSave);
save.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v) {
textBox = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtText1);
textbox2 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.fname);
String FILENAME = textbox2.getText().toString();
String value = textBox.getText().toString();
try{
fos = openFileOutput(FILENAME,MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE);
}
catch(IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
byte[] buffer = value.getBytes();
try {
fos.write(buffer);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
fos.flush();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
fos.close();
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "File saved successfully!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
finish();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
}
You can get a list all application files using Context.fileList. Then use ArrayAdapter to populate your list view
I am currently making an app to go with my online radio site, I am coding it with Android 2.2 (API 8) and I have got the Shoutcast Stream working with two buttons.
Here is the code on my main class:
public class GrooveOfMusicRadioActivity extends Activity {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

start.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mediaPlayer.start();
}
});
stop.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mediaPlayer.pause();
}
});
String url = "http://67.212.165.106:8161"; // your URL here
mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION);
try {
mediaPlayer.setDataSource(url);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block

} catch (IOException e) {

So I was wondering so how do I receive the stream title,song,artist etc.. and make it appear
The main XML is in a relative layout
Thanks, I am a total noob when it comes to programming.
Thanks mark :)
I just had to get meta data myself, I basically did the same stuff from: Pulling Track Info From an Audio Stream Using PHP. A lot of data is in the headers so you can use those, but all I wanted was the Stream Title, so thats what I got.
Activity mainAct = this;
public void getNowPlaying(View v) {
Log.w("getNowPlaying", "fired");
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
String title = null, djName = null;
try {
URL updateURL = new URL(YOUR_STREAM_URL_HERE);
URLConnection conn = updateURL.openConnection();
conn.setRequestProperty("Icy-MetaData", "1");
int interval = Integer.valueOf(conn.getHeaderField("icy-metaint")); // You can get more headers if you wish. There is other useful data.
InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
int skipped = 0;
while (skipped < interval) {
skipped += is.skip(interval - skipped);
}
int metadataLength = is.read() * 16;
int bytesRead = 0;
int offset = 0;
byte[] bytes = new byte[metadataLength];
while (bytesRead < metadataLength && bytesRead != -1) {
bytesRead = is.read(bytes, offset, metadataLength);
offset = bytesRead;
}
String metaData = new String(bytes).trim();
title = metaData.substring(metaData.indexOf("StreamTitle='") + 13, metaData.indexOf(" / ", metaData.indexOf("StreamTitle='"))).trim();
djName = metaData.substring(metaData.indexOf(" / ", metaData.indexOf("StreamTitle='")) + 3, metaData.indexOf("';", metaData.indexOf("StreamTitle='"))).trim();
Log.w("metadata", metaData);
is.close();
