I'm making an application that is posting some information to your facebook wall using facebook sdk for android. This works, but I can't seem to get new lines on the posts. I have tried
but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
Here is my code...
Is it possible to make TextView to break words in the middle and then move to another line, instead moving whole word that doesn't fit to the new line ? I have a width and number of lines of the TextView and a long string and want to calculate which portion of the String will fit exactly. the code is TextView vTextShort = (TextView) findViewById (R.id.story_text_partial); int lineHeight = vTextShort.getLineHeight(); int nmbLines = mesuredHeight / lineHeight; Paint mPaint = vTextShort.getPaint(); String shortTextStr = mStoryText; mStoryBreakIdx = 0; vTextShort.setLines(nmbLines ); int breakText = mPaint.breakText(mStoryText.toCharArray(), 0, mStoryText.length(), mesuredWidth, null); mStoryBreakIdx = breakText * nmbLines; It seems to calculate number of chars accurately but not accounting for the space that left after word is moved to a new line if it doesn't fit fully. And i'm looking on how to either break words in the middle or how calculate a width of the text that will fit correctly.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a TextView inside a ScrollView. Let's say the ScrollView is named s and the TextView is named t.
I have many lines to be displayed in the TextView and at the same time I want to scroll the view to a specific line.
So I did this:
t.setText(aVeryLongString);
int y = t.getLayout().getLineTop(40); // e.g. I want to scroll to line 40
s.scrollTo(0, y);
But it won't scroll, except the second time. It seems that on the first time the code finishes, the ScrollView knows how much the total height of the TextView is.
So I think there must be something to force calculating the needed height before the scrollTo call. How to do that (or otherwise)?
I am trying to insert line breaks into a string resource so they appear in a TextView. I put in "" but all I get is "
" appearing. Is there a setting I'm missing?
I have a full-screen TextView holding a long Spanned that requires scrolling. The TextView's getLineCount() gives me the total number of lines used for the entire block of text but I'd like to know how many lines of text are currently visible on the screen.
Or, better yet, is there a way to figure out the range of lines currently visible on the screen? For example, as the view scrolls, can I tell that lines 20-60 are currently visible?
I simply populate the database from a text file where each line is a new entry into the table so a line would look like this "This is on first line.This is on second line" and it is stored as text.Is there a reason that it isn't displaying the characters properly? It must be something to do with the string being in the database.

I have a couple of apps that have changed from free to trial versions and would like to have them not show up as needing an update. I am rooted, and have SQLite and Root Explorer but I cannot find where that bit of info is stored. If someone could point me in the right direction, or if you know of an app to do this, that would be great. I know TB can backup/restore the market link so it should be possible to break it somehow.
I want to do something like that. For example, I have a textview with String
Alibaba love Mary so muck. In that String alibaba and Mary have a event to open something but I can't know how to use event for Mary and Alibaba seperately
I had Eclipse running with the Android plug-in and I decided to add the Emacs plug-in. I downloaded and it worked. Then I decided to go back to the Eclipse key bindings and the Android plug-in disappeared. I could not update it, because Eclipse said it was installed, but it was not showing up in the menu.
I had to re download Eclipse, and reinstall the plug-in.
Why don't different plug-ins cooperate? I had the same issue when I tried to download the Blackberry plug-in alongside the Android plug-in (in different workspaces) and that also did not work. The only solution is to have two separate Eclipse each with a different plug-in.
Assuming I didn't start in debug mode, is there a way to make the eclipse debugger automatically start if my app throws an exception inside the emulator?
Alternatively, is there a way to get a more useful error message out of the emulator (something more useful than "Sorry, your app terminated unexpectedly").
Presently am displaying html file in web view and my emulator size 1024*600. If the html file is large then user is scrolling down to see bottom part of the html. I Need to break these html file in equal parts so that it fits exactly in my screen size. I don't want User to Scroll Down but load remaining part (next page) next time.

Is there any way to cancel pending SQLite query on Android? Timeout would be as good as well, partial results are not required. I'm performing query within AsyncTask.doInBackground()
I know best way is optimize query or change app logic, but in this case results depends on user knowledge anyway, so I'd like to help those who enter troublesome pattern.
If I access my web site using https from my app will it break any export laws?

I am developing using Eclipse and MyTouch phone, while i can run the application fine on the
device, i can't seem to set break points for debugging. is there some settings/tools i am missing?
Why should the debugger don't make breakpoints stop when running an android app on Eclipse ?

So i was told that unlocking the bootloader breaks DRM(wildvine).
How is the DRM tied to the bootloader? With android being open source how is this not easily bypassed?
If I boot into clockwork recovery and clear the cache/data and/or the dalvik cache and then boot back into my rom, will it still work?
I recovered my rom without clearing it beforehand and now all sorts of minor weird things are going wrong. its fine, just annoying.
I have a Galaxy S3 on at&t (i747)
I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed the update for CauseWorld (a random little app where you collect "karma" points for "checking-in" to various real-world locations, and then you spend the points on various charitable causes). I used to leave the app running all the time, so I could easily check-in to a new place every few minutes, because loading the app from scratch is frustratingly slow (whereas having it running in the background makes it pop up instantly).
With the new update, if I left the app running in the background, it'd wake up my phone every few seconds, as it tried to update my location in the app. So as I left my phone sitting on my desk, I'd see the lock screen flash on, then off. Then on, off, on, off, etc. Pretty annoying. Last night I charged my phone, and as I went to bed, unplugged the charger, since it was fully charged. But apparently I forgot to shut down the CauseWorld app, because my alarms never went off this morning, and my phone was completely dead.
I plugged it into the charger, but the phone won't turn on, even after leaving it plugged in for 15 minutes.
The only thing that's changed about my phone in the last week is downloading the update for the CauseWorld app, so I'm blaming that, for lack of any other idea of what caused the problem.
I'm just wondering if anyone else is seeing this issue. Since the Froyo update I've had every Droid Incredible phone(the only droids at our facility) have this same exact issue. The phones will just randomly stop getting emails. But once the user goes into "Email" it refreshes itself and they started getting all of their emails. I even tried a different email app to see if there was something that at least worked. "Improved Email" seemed to do the trick until that too stopped getting emails all of a sudden too and the only way to reset that is to reboot the phone, and then all of the emails will come through on boot up. I am at a loss as to what is causing this. All of our other smart phones(non droid phones) are running fine. It seems as soon as the Froyo update hit these phones, email has been a struggle since.

So, there I was, not able to go to download mode to flash stock ROM. Than I googled that you can go to download mode through adb and I did and flashed backed stock ROM.
AND THEN, IN AN ACT OF ABSOLUTE STUPIDITY, I'VE GONE TO RECOVERY MODE THROUGH ADB.
And now I can't get out. My phone is working, software is ok, only HOME button is not working. ADB dont see phone any more and phone is always rebooted in recovery mode.
Can we align our text line by line(I mean whatever the text we have selected that should be aligned instead of the whole text) in android text-view dynamically!
