Android :: TextView Always Loses Focus After Orientation Change / Is This Bug?

Jun 11, 2009

When changing screen orientation while running an Activity that has both a normal layout and a layout-land file defined (both of which contain a TextView), then that view loses its focus after being restored and a warning is issued on the log:

"Previously focused view reported id X during save, but can't be found during restore."

Is this a bug? I looked at the mID field of that view, and it's identical for both the portrait and the landscape layout.

Android :: Stop Timer When Activity Loses Focus

Nov 10, 2010

I have a Timer which executes a TimerTask every 30 seconds. I only want the timer to launch a new TimerTask if the Activity is displayed i.e. if the user receives a phone call or launches a new activity the Timer will stop. I then need the Timer to restart when the Activity is re-launched and comes into focus.

Now this should be easy, I override the "onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus)" method and either start or stop the timer depending on the value of has Focus. The way I start the timer is to create a new Timer object and TimerTask each time and the way I stop the Timer is to call the cancel() method on the Timer object and set timer to null.

My problem is this doesn't always work, if I launch the activity which has the Timer and switch orientations quickly (to start/stop the Activity) I find the Timer is not always canceled and I end up with multiple Timers launching TimerTasks at an ever increasing rate.

Android :: Detect When Another Activity Is Launched Or Loses Focus

Dec 3, 2009

Like the title says, I need to detect when my app loses focus because another app is launched (Phone call comes in, or user hits Home etc.).
Overriding Activity.OnStop does not work because that is called even when switching activities within my app.

Android :: Orientation Change - Dialog Above Activity With Fixed Orientation

May 14, 2009

I have created an activity for my game which handles all orientation changes by itself and has a fixed "portrait" layout. Actually it uses the accelerometer and is rendered using 2D canvas methods. If the level has been completed I show up a highscore dialog in which the user can enter his name. The dialog is floating above the underlying level screen which gets blurred out nicely. This generally works.

Problem is that the dialog does not get rotated if the orientation of the phone changes. So even if the keyboard is exposed the dialog is shown in portrait mode instead of landscape. I have tried to use an activity with dialog theme instead but the behavior didn't change. After several tries it seems that I have found the reason for this: Once there's an activity with fixed orientation in the activity stack then all subsequent activities keep this orientation, too. They will not react on orientation changes anymore (e.g. if the keyboard gets exposed).

After upgrading to 1.5 SDK the described behavior changed a little bit. Now at subactivities indead react on orientation changes like expected. However, the need to have an opaque background! That means that neither dialogs nor activities with dialog theme will work. Those will stick with the orientation of the underlaying activity. So my workaround is to first start a sub-activity with an opaque black background. This activity then shows my highscore dialog on top. It looks quite okay but I wonder if there's a better solution? Is it possible to show a dialog above a fixed portrait or landscape activity which automatically adapts to orientation changes?

Android :: TextView - Disable Focus / Fix It

Jan 30, 2010

I have a listview, and wanted to make some list items to be non-focusable. i.e On pressing the down-arrow key, some items in the middle of the list gets skipped.

I tried the following method. 1. created separate ArrayAdapter class. 2. override getView method. 3. In getView, I called setSelected(false) and also tried setFocusable(false) for some items, but its not working.

Android :: Set Focus On TextView When Activity Starts?

Aug 16, 2010

There are an EditText and a TextView in my Activity. I want to set focus on the TextView when the Activity starts. I used the following code:

TextView myTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.my_text_vew);
myTextView.setFocusable(true);
myTextView.setOnClickListener(this);
myTextView.requestFocus();

But the code doesn't work. The EditText always receives focus when the activity starts.

Android :: AppWidget On Homescreen : Focus ImageView / TextView With Trackball?

Feb 6, 2010

I coded an AppWidget the user can add to his homescreen. There are a bunch of images (ImageView) in it that perform different actions like starting Activities on click (realised with PendingIntents). To make it easier to navigate through the AppWidget I'd like to use the trackball (as it works with the SearchWidget or FacebookWidget) but I just can't make it work. Here's my layout code for the AppWidget...

So I want to be able to navigate through a bunch of these "Spots" that are all relativeLayouts. How can I make that work out? I'd be really happy about every hint or idea!

Android :: Change Intent Bundle Data Before Activity Recreated After Orientation Change

Jul 30, 2009

I have a notification that starts my activity and passes a messages using the intent's putExtra() function. The message is then displayed to the user in the activity's onCreate function. When the application is restarted due to a orientation change, the message is shown again as it is still in the intent's bundled data.
How can I remove the extra data?

I tried the following:

Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
if (bundle.getBoolean("showMessage")) {
// ... show message that is in bundle.getString("message")
// remove message
bundle.remove("showMessage");
}

But the message will still be shown after the orientation changed, seems like the intent used is not the one I changed, but the original one. The only workaround I found is to save the showMessage additionally in onSaveInstanceState(). Is there another way? Or is this the way to go?

Android :: Change Button Color On Focus And On Click

Oct 16, 2009

I am developing an application that has a button whose color should change green color on focusing on the button and the color of button should change to red on clicking the button.

How can this be solved?

Android :: List Child Item Focus Change?

Nov 19, 2010

I have a list view which contains different numbers and i have a button below with the name "Call". The expected spec is to change the button background to blue, only if user clicks on list item, and if user clicks on some other views, i need to change the button background to white.

My work around for this issue:

I have set onfocusChangeListener() for the list live, but onFocusChanged() is getting called if next view gets the focus.

Expected result:

1) Background of the button should change to blue if user clicks on list child item.

2) Background of the button should change to white if user clicks on other views.

Android :: Possible Leak In Orientation Change

Jul 1, 2009

My app *sometimes* when orientation change, leaks Activities (getInstanceCount() increases from time to time) and i cannot figure out where references to my Activity or rather Context are kept - tried to use jhat but it couldn't help me much.

what is strange: it doesn't always happen on orientation change, so its even harder to fix.

btw when doing normal app life cycle - start, do something, exit - everything is ok - getInstanceCount() always returns 1.

Android :: OnCreate And Orientation Change

Apr 28, 2010

I have an activity that checks stuffs online when it's created (is the GPS on and if not it asks if the user wants to turn it on).

The problem I'm having is that it is also doing it everytime I change the orientation of the screen.

I've read some comments on onConfigurationChanged() but is there a better way to be sure I'm checking the GPS only when the activity is first created?
