in the future, please send such questions to the mailing list (cc'ed).
we prefer you use the mailing list because it reduces duplication and
allows the entire community to answer questions in a publicly viewable
and searchable way. now on to some answers!
please make sure your phone (real or emulator) browser can go to the
openmrs login page. if that works, you know networking isn't the
problem. if it's not working, you gotta fix that first. http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/devices/emulator.html#networkaddresses
should be helpful if you are using the emulator. if you are using a
real phone, the vm will need an ip that is accessible outside the
host.
i'm assuming you followed the instructions at http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/ODKClinic. if not, please
try those and let us know what happens. you might also want to try the
tip of trunk in the clinic repo, that version should makes the
collect/clinic integration much better. we don't have proper openmrs
user auth yet, you have to enter the openmrs admin's username and
password in the clinic preferences. if you are using the openmrs
virtual machine (another uw creation!), that should be admin/test.
couple of related projects that you should know about...
the millenium villages project (at columbia) is making some changes to
odk clinic (new patient registration, ui changes, etc). this is for a
nursing application that ties into openmrs, but there should be plenty
of overlap. glad to connect you to that team.
there is a team of uw grad students who are adding bluetooth sensors
support into collect. they should have something demoable in a few
weeks. at that point, i expect the code to be made public so others
can chip in. waylon (wrb@cs.washington.edu) is on that team so maybe
you can ping him for the details.
hope that helps,
yaw
