I need to zoom-in/zoom-out for my app. Multitouch would be the most obvious way to go about this *sigh*. I would prefer not to use the zoom-in/out widget. I have been trying a number of other techniques but am not satisfied with the feel. Looking for suggestions from the community on alternative approaches. A one fingered zoom?

it should not zoom in too much (x < minZoomLevel etc) or zoom out too much (only one size - width or height - can get smaller than the display size)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI know that there are browsers like dolphin or xscope that allow multitouch zoom, but I was wondering about something else. I actually happen to like the default browser better than those two, I really just want multitouch. I'm no developer, but I was wondering how possible it would be to take the default browser, and add nothing to it but the multitouch zoom.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSpent 2 weeks poking around Android SDKs and sacrificed last two weekends and finally managed to get a relatively stable version today. Named 'xScope', I did put a $2.99 price tag tough if you please excuse me. I need to buy a bird for this thanksgiving and wife kept bashing my development effort for not doing any housework in the past weeks. The browser is not full blown but works great for simple surfing.

There is no mention, however, of using multitouch to zoom the map application - the manual makes reference to double tapping the screen to zoom. Does anyone know if the Incredible will use multitouch in the map app like the Droid is able to?

When I try to pinch zoom out, it sometimes zooms in twice as hard.
When I try to pinch zoom in or out, it sometimes just moves the map.
With sometimes I mean, every time I'm in google maps all 3 of those problems occur more than it works normal.
Has anyone experienced where multitouch (like pinch to zoom) doesn't work, until you restart your phone?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis is to confirm that we are working on enabling Pinch Zoom for the XPERIA X10. The work with this has progressed and the plan is that this will be enabled through an over-the-air update of the X10 that for most markets will come in Q1 2011. For more information on background and what to expect please read the corresponding blog post at http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/product...
This is SE official announcment about multitouch, and few month ago they say that it was not possible, but now they say that X10 support this. What to think people some alliens fly down and changed our mobiles or SE was able from the beggining to make multitouch and he didn't wanted. E SE lovers and Moderators of this forum i am waiting for comment from you pleasee......

Htc Hero is supposed to be a multi touch device, you can pinch to zoom in browser and in photo viewer, the thing that I can't understand is why all other applications don't support multitouch.
For example I downloaded snesoid and nesoid and there is written in the options that my firmware (1.5) doesnt' support multitouch, making it impossible to play games.
So is HTC hero with 1.5 really multitouch or not? And will I be able to use multitouch in emulators and other apps downloaded from the market when the 2.1 will come out?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm considering taking the plunge and going all-in with Google. My primary email has always been my hotmail addy, which I've had since. whenever hotmail started. Literally. I've always had my POP addy from my ISP, but it's been more of a secondary address. The changes over the last while to Windows Live services and so forth have made email slow and clunky, and my ISP has got rid of their email servers entirely and Windows Live supplies all their email services. So, a switch to Gmail is under heavy consideration, particularly since I spend more time with my phone now than on my computer. I've got a Google account (obviously) and use many of their services, and have a Gmail account, which I never use. Google's calendar services, among others are terrific, integration with Android is seamless, while using hotmail through Android is a bit of a headache. How do people find Gmail? Is it worth a pretty major change (all my shopping sites, forums, etc will need to be changed to the new email) for what I'm hoping will be easier email usage on the go? Talk me into / out of the switch people, I need your advice.

I just now discovered I can't even signup on the Market being from Brazil, so what other alternative I have to distribute my software?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI keep reading articles about how new competitors to the Android Market are popping up, but I've yet to hear about any specific ones, or what they are offering that would make me want to explore them. The only Other market I've heard of is the Mikandi market for adult/porn apps, but I'm not really interested in that (at least not on my phone). I was wondering whether we could collect recommendations for other Android application stores and download sites, and add a brief review of the sites including a recommendation on why we would or would not want to use them (such as unique recommended downloads not present in the Android Market). we have a similar thread, but that one is about the best apps not found in the Android Market: Best Apps You Won't Find In Market.

Google maps api is great for developing location based services for mobile phones. But for some reason the use of it is restricted for me in a special project.E.g. if your project is in conflict with the general terms and conditions of google it is not recommended to use google maps API.In my app (android, iOS) i want to display a location on a map by retrieving gps information. Overall the api should offer a similar scope of operation like google maps API.Which alternatives do you know? Maybe there are open source api's?

View 21 Replies View RelatedIt seems like the number of alternative markets is exploding recently. Every other week I seem to get another invitation. Even in Germany, which is one of the few countries where you can pay and receive payments, (at least?) three big alternative markets were opened within the last few months. While I can understand why there are so many alternatives, I'm a bit concerned about this trend. I'd prefer *not* having to upload my app to about two dozens of alternative stores with different registration requirements, payment options, and languages I only partially understand thanks to Google Translate. Sometimes I wonder why Google even bothered to start an own "centralized" Market if at the end of the day - developers need to upload their apps to more stores than ever existed for Palm and Windows Mobile (combined) - people in most countries can't pay for apps, and in even more countries can't receive money for their apps (not to mention the available payment possibilities aren't common in all of the supported countries.......

View 10 Replies View RelatedAs we all know, the Facebook for Android app is amazing. Notifications work like they should, we can actually utilize the "Places" feature, the user interface is spectacular, and it puts the iPhone equivalent to shame. Right. So, until I can actually say that with a straight face, I'm going to need an adequate alternative - this is where you guys come in, what with all your experience and whatnot. Most of the ones I've seen are just links to either the mobile/touch site, or are worse than the stock app (which is really saying something). I've heard of Bloo, but I've also heard the developer stopped, you know, developing it, and instead handed it to the public - and I have no idea how that worked out. So, any suggestions would be great. I'd just like a working Facebook app that doesn't make me want to throw a perfectly innocent puppy through an incinerator.

I'm thinking about picking up the N1 and selling the iPhone because of my general dislike for all things Apple, however, I tried out the Droid last year for 30 days and went back to my iPhone. I'm wondering if things have changed significantly in the Android world since then. I'm particularly interested in Android alternatives or flavors of the following iPhone applications:
kindle (kindle reader)
audible (audiobooks)
Jaadu RDP (remote desktop) <-- this one is a deal breaker for me
picasa photo application (uploading and administering albums)
dropbox

Skype
Copy and Paste
I'd also be interested to know if the copy/paste functionality has improved at all. When I had my Droid, copy and pasting from the body of an email was almost impossible. You needed to hold down one of the tiny droid keyboard buttons and drag your finger across the screen to highlight the text. At that point if you highlighted the wrong text you were S.O.L because it immediately copied the text as soon as you raised your finger from the screen. Please, please, please, tell me this has been improved! I'd love to get away from my iPhone so that I can delete iTunes forever.
