Sorry if this double posts, had forgotten which email address I had signed
up for on the mailing list.

Hey folks, I've been working on a version of MobileOrg for the Android
platform with the goal to reach feature parity with the iPhone version
developed by Richard Moreland.

I have completed an early alpha version that can fetch and display the
contents of Org files stored on a webdav server.   There are some good
instructions for setting up a webdav server in the normal MobileOrg
documentation: http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/doc/

For getting started from the emacs side of things, the Org-mode
documentation itself contains all the information you need:
http://orgmode.org/manual/MobileOrg.html

As for the MobileOrg android application itself you can find the release
notes and a download link here:

http://wiki.github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/

There are some known issues with this early alpha version and can't
synchronize back to the webdav server yet or handle setting the state of
tasks but I felt this was a good start and would actually be useful for
Org-mode users

When you first start the application up you'll need to click "Menu" and then
"Settings" and enter your webdav information.  After saving you can click
"Menu" again then "Sync".   Once that has finished it will populate the
display and you can drill into your document structure.

Congratulations Matthew for the good work!


Your work will at the end finally make decide to buy a decent Android phone.
(I almost bought an Iphone only for the possibility of MobileOrg!)

[Android] Force close with MobileOrg Android 0.2_alpha and development snapshot

[Friedrich Delgado Friedrichs]

Hi!

I finally got around to trying out MobileOrg for Android.

After I finally managed to set up webdav and sync my files, MobileOrg
force closed. (development snapshot from today)

Now it force closes every time I try to start it.

I tried the 0.2 alpha release next but it also force closed on
startup.

Looking into my /sdcard/mobileorg files, I noticed that only parts of
my files were there.

In particular, I notice that I have subdirectories 'home' and 'work'
in my Org files, but there are no subdirectories in the
/sdcard/mobileorg directory.

Then I tried deinstalling the application and reinstalling (this time
the 0.2 alpha), put in my setup, pressed sync and get a force close
again.

Unfortunately the logcat contains the full contents of some of my org
files, which I can't post to the list, so I'm posting parts of it
here:

[ log with contents of files]

I/global  (14760): Default buffer size used in BufferedWriter
constructor. It would be better to be explicit if an 8k-char buffer is
required.

[log of further files, but this time *without* the contents]

We should probably do further debugging off-list.

Looks like this might be a bug trying to write your files out to
subdirectories it looks like I'm not trying to create the subdirectories.
If you put your files in just the root directory does that work for you?

I simply deleted the subdirectories from the remote staging area
(along with their mentions in index.org) and then I could sync them
with 0.2 alpha and the snapshot could read them.

Just for some feedback: I think the most useful features for me
would be:
 - handling of directories, obviously :)
 - some kind of agenda view
 - a tag-todo view, based on Location or user choice (I'm at the
 supermarket, let's pull up the shopping list)
 - fast capturing + sync

Kind regards
   Friedel
