I have a bunch of Android devices from different vendors. Some of them attach /mnt/sdcard to internal storage and /mnt/extsd to external storage(Scenario 1) and others attach /mnt/sdcard to external storage(Scenario 2) I think the second scenario is standard since the Android API provides a handle to this path. Now the problem is that in scenario 1, /mnt/extsd becomes readonly even with WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission! This means I can only read data from the actual external sd card and not be able to write to it. Is there a workaround for this so I can write to the extsd folder ?

I've got the problem that I need the height of the android tablet system bar. It's the same problem as over here , but I cant use this answer, because it gives me the same size as from the DisplayMetrics.

I wanted to disable features related to CALL and SMS in my application based on whether SIM hardware is present or not. Now a beginners approach towards this will be checking the Phone type using : if (telephonyManager1.getPhoneType() == TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_NONE) If true then its supported. Everything was fine until i came across Sony Tablet S which has a SIM support only for Data and Messaging. No voice support. So for this device i need to disable only CALL feature but continue with SMS support. Sony tablet returns TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_NONE so i can`t use the above methods.

I am trying to build a tablet optimized app and I would like to follow the same style of gmail tablet version in selections (the arrow on the right side of the selection).

I am trying to write an android app to read and write data from android tablet to our embedded device. The tablet and embedded device are connected via usb to serial converter. Is it possible to read data from the embedded device into our android tablet? Any sample code that I can take a look at? As a serial converter is a USB device , the android tablet has to act as a USB host . This feature is available since Android 3.1.
