Sensor simulator on 2.1 - android

I have a specific problem. I need to make openintents sensor simulator work
on 2.1 emulator. Does anyone has an advice on how to pass around deprecated code and make it work on emulator 2.1. Ty in advance for any help or advice you might have.

Most of the sensors are not implemented in the emulator. You need a real device to test code that access sensors within Android.
See the following site about the limitations of the emulator:

Dynamic Desired Capabilities in Appium

We have a lot of real mobile devices to execute functional tests on them. We are facing a lot of difficulties when switching devices. I am looking for a dynamic way of changing Device Capabilities programmatically (Android devices) . Could you help me to figure out this? Any link clue may help.
Regards.
As far as I understand, you want your desired capabilities to change every time you connect a new mobile device to your development environment. may be this library can help you. It also support iOS.

development: motoactv (rooted) bluetooth scan (no results found)

:Hello everybody, i finally figured out how to develop on the motorola watch and just ran into an issue. My app tries to scan for nearby bluetooth devices, but no results were found. At first i thought it was kind of an coding problem, but when i tested it on other devices there was no problem at all. So my questions are:
Anyone of you ever tried to use the motoactv for development?
Maybe did anyone know how to solve this issue?
Is it possible to search for different devices than sensors or headsets?
Some help would be really appreciated :)
Regards mrcoffee85
When i had the same issue on samsung devices i solved it using remove filter from scanning . because some device not supporting 128 bit uuid for scanning. Please read below link for more info
startLeScan with 128 bit UUIDs doesn't work on native Android BLE implementation

How to get timing advance value in android?

I am getting MCC,MNC,LAC values in Android apps, and even I made my own application and I am able to obtain these values.
But Timing Advance (TA) is not available in any of the app or I am not finding any way to get TA. I can use NDK, or AT commands or SDK anything, but I want to get TA value.
Can you suggest any pointers. If not Android, I am OK with iPhone, or Windows App also.
Thanks.
Same questions here Get mobile cell tower timing advance on Android 2.3
For LTE technology there is already an access to Timing Advance values: see http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/CellSignalStrengthLte.html#getTimingAdvance()
No SDK access method for GSM and UMTS.
AT commands are modem specific...
For LTE, TA is available through getTimingAdvance (), starting from API 17 (AOS 4.2 - Jelly Bean).

Sensors in android emulator?

I wanna create an app by using acceleration sensor.But I don't know how can I test it in emulator?
I don't think the Android emulators support the acceleration sensor nicely by default.
However, you can download SensorSimulator from Google, which lets you give the Android emulator simulated sensor data with the mouse. Just follow the instructions on the website and you should be good to go.
Update (4/5/2016):
As Maks kindly pointed out, OpenIntents SensorSimulator has moved here: http://github.com/openintents/sensorsimulator
Additionally, some hardware emulation is now supported: http://tools.android.com/tips/hardware-emulation

Implement Camera on Android Emulator | Need some knowledge

I'm interested in doing some enhancements to android emulator (implement webcam on emulator). Therefore I'm following the android source and emulators source to get basic understanding & the connection between modules. But its really hard to understand it for someone who is new to android. Therefore can anyone please direct me to some resource to understand this. May be some proper documentation, tutorials or anything that i can understand this.
And since i'm interested in emulator if i change the code of emulator with in "external\qemu" , then build it using "m emulator" and run using "emulator" , will those changes effect or apply onto the started emulator.
And if anyone know please let me know that, what is the sdk it uses when it run as "emulator" from the build android source code. Cos if i want to install some application to that emulator how can i do that?
Please help if anyone know...
You will want to implement a compatible camera interface in QEMU. QEMU is a multi-platform system emulator which provides a complete emulated system.
I would suggest implementing a camera which matches an existing hardware device. For this, you will likely need to study the existing drivers which are part of the kernel source.
