ANT+ sensor won't connect

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enable ANT+ sensors
2. Start record a track
3. Go to sensor state and look for ANT+ sensors hear rate. Nothing but 
"Connecting" will show on the screen. 

Using a garmin heart rate chest strap together with SE X10 Mini Pro; The ant+ 
sensor does only connect occationally. 

Using MyTracks 1.1.6.

Confirms
First run of MyTracks and the ANT+ sensor is detected. 
Second run/recording it will never connect. 

If MyTracks is reset to defaults and ANT+ support enabled again,  ANT+ will 
work again for one recording.

Tested a minute ago in MyTracks 1.1.9 on a SE Xperia Neo.
Include a log where I started MyTracks, added Ant+, start stop a recording.
Start, stop a second recording.

I have the same issue. I rather always reset ANT+ device before start 
recording. I'm using Holux ANT+ HRM.

Same thing happens with the SRM PC7 bridge, but it only happens when the device 
Id > 127 and not when the device id <= 127. Which suggests it's an issue of 
interpretting signed/unsigned bytes.

I believe if you change the method decodeShort in the class 
com.google.android.apps.mytracks.services.sensors.ant.AntMessage, from:

  protected static short decodeShort(byte b0, byte b1) {
    short value = b0;
    value |= ((short) b1) << 8;
    return value;
  }

to:

  protected static short decodeShort(byte b0, byte b1) {
    int value = (b0 & 0xFF);
    value |= (b1 & 0xFF) << 8;
    return (short)value;
  }

it should solve the problem.

Perhaps a secondary issue, but with current version of MyTracks the software 
crashes every time I try to use the ant+ pulse monitor. 
When I stop a recording where I have tried to record my puls, with Ant+ active, 
it crashes and also whenever I try to open Sensor state during a recording or 
exiting the same when not recording.

have sent in a number of crash reports from the device, do not know if they 
reach you. 

Post it here since it is probably related but feel free to push it to a new bug 
report.
My pulse band has ID 42741 btw, form Garmin (Fr 305) used with SE Xperia Neo 
with Android 2.3.4 (4.0.2.A.0.42)
Mytracks version 1.1.10

These are logs for tests done with the SRM PC7 device, with id=127 and id=128, 
and with the old code and the new proposed code. Tests show that the new code 
solves the problem of not being able to connect after the initial pairing.

I merged the change to main. It is in the release candidate for v1.1.11
http://code.google.com/p/mytracks/downloads/list

* For non-developers, please don't use the release candidate. Instead, use the 
Android Market version so that you can receive future updates.
