Android :: Android Shortcut Keys For Browsing And Checking Email
Sep 21, 2010I need a list of Android shortcuts for browsing the web and also for checking emails.

I need a list of Android shortcuts for browsing the web and also for checking emails.
I plan to get a Droid X here sometime in the coming month, and I'm terribly excited about it. One thing I'd really like to be able to do is check my university email on my phone, without having to go through a browser. Is it possible that I'll be able to do so? When I go to log in to the website where I check my email, it says "Microsoft Exchange" at the top. I've heard others mention "exchange" email accounts. Is this what it's referring to? Will I be able to check my universal inbox and get my school email?

Can receive email but sending on the move fails. Three customer service don't know and cant be bothered ringing them up again and hanging on for ages warming up my ear.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for an app that I can create a shortcut on the home screen and it will automatically email a specific email address. I know there are things that are close to this (add contact to home screen) but then you have to click again to send an email, etc. I'm looking for the equivalent of a fast "note to self" application for quick capture of ideas.

View 15 Replies View RelatedFor no apparent reason, my phone stopped checking for email (on 5 separate accounts) G-mail still pushed fine, so it took a couple of days for me to notice, but in the meantime, my battery life nearly doubled.
A re-boot fixed the email issue and battery life is back to normal- 12-18 hours average use. I had set the other five accounts to check for mail at varying times. One was set for every 30min, the rest were every 2 hours (or more).
I did not realize what a battery drain email checking was causing.

Differentiate between main , embedded and redirected URI." I dont know where to search and how to go about it. Any kind of help would be really helpful. Please post your expert comments and help as early as possible.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is going to sound odd, but I am trying to make a shortcut on my homescreen to email myself. This seems simple, but it looks like whenever I put a contact in my address book with ANY of my email addresses, it isn't available to be used for a shortcut. Try this and tell me that I'm not going crazy. ...but please TRY it before you post the instructions. I say this because I got my boss to try it and he thought I was being a smartass until he tried to do it. A shortcut to email to myself is really helpful for tracking things and is like a to do list for me.

View 3 Replies View RelatedForgive a noob for what may be a silly question but I did a search and came up empty. Is there a way to create a shortcut that when pressed automagically starts an email to a predetermined person? I have shortcuts to specific phone numbers for calls and txts. But can I do the same for emails?

Currently, to initialize data for the first time (not repeatedly), we try of open the db and if it fails we know the database does not exists otherwise it is already created and initialized.
Is there any simple API available to check whether DB exists or not ?
I am working on a simple app for the HTC EVO that blinks the alternate notification LED when a new text message is received. I have this part working great via a Broadcast Receiver but I need some way to turn the LED off when the user has read the message(s) using their default SMS app. I'm not sure if it is best to do this in the receiver or in a background service.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to programmatically without root check and see how a program was installed?
The only solution I've been able to find is using root - and tapping into a database that the Vending application uses;
CREATE TABLE assets10(_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, content_uri TEXT, s tate TEXT, download_pending_time INTEGER, download_start_time INTEGER, install_t ime INTEGER, uninstall_time INTEGER, size INTEGER, type TEXT, package_name TEXT, is_forward_locked TEXT, signature TEXT, refund_timeout INTEGER, version_code IN TEGER, server_string_id TEXT UNIQUE);
Most specifically I can check to this database using my package name and/or signature and see if it's ever been installed by the market. Then if it has you could check to see if it's been uninstalled.
As for background, I'm just messing around with ways to distinguish real users from pirated versions. I've noticed from an application I've posted that I only have approximately 100 downloads and 50% active, yet my server which is used by the application shows approximately 200ish unique users within the past few days.
I have a string called extStorageDirectory which is set to my SD Card and then "/mypics", I can then save a picture in to this directory, but only if the directory exsists. So how do I check to see if the directory exsits, and if it doesn't creates the directory?

I know android doesn't allow applications to interfere each other in this way due to security concern. Is there any way i could bypass the security check? I've looked into the WindowManagerService class and made some modifications but it seems not working for me.

I am doing so like this:

Unfortunately, when I'm debugging on my Android device, this returns false when I have both a network and a wireless connection.
Some interesting tidbits about connec.getNetworkInfo(0):
CODE:...................
Clearly this code is not sufficient (perhaps it would only return true if I sent some bit over the network and turned the radio on?). Moreover, since I'm not well versed in the ConnectivityManager, I'm assuming I should probably be scanning all networks (ie: getNetworkInfo(0 through N)).

View 1 Replies View RelatedActually I am checking the code flow of NFC in Android-ICS.But i got stuck because of some files are not present in ICS.
Like :
GB code -> WriteTagActivity (to write into a TAG)
ICS code -> no files.
Some more files are also missing in NFC and TAG.
Since I got my 16 GB Card it's started saying it for longer than with my 2GB Card, however it says it less now. Does how long it takes depend on how much data you put on since taking it out of USB Mode? Because when I first got this card I wrote a lot to it (Moving all my files over), but now I just put a few files here and there on... Is there a way to disable this and let you run it manually at your leisure?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a terrible bug in my widget. The widget is waken up using an AlarmManager (the update interval is chosen by users, ranging from 30 mins to 2 hours) to grab some data from the Internet and display it on the widget. I do not hold a wakelock since if the phone sleeps, just let it sleeps. There's no way to update the information since nobody will see it. If I put the phone in the basement (has no wi-fi or cell signal) for about an hour. the phone will definitely not update anything. However, when I get it back from the basement, the cell network could never be recovered again no matter how long I have waited (it just get an X on the cell signal icon on the notification bar) that I must restart the phone. May I know if a partial wake lock must be held on checking network availability?

I wanted to check the availability of another app in Market from my app. Based on this I will have to give a message saying "Coming soon" or show the other app in Market. I am using the following intent
new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details? id=com.example.android.XXXX"));
Now, how can I catch the result which would say if the Market was able to find this package or not?
I got problem with register. I use an if-else statement to check whether the user left any blank. If there is any blank, an error message will appear. The problem is, even with no blanks, all filled up, the error message still appears and thus prevents user from registering. I can't find any error.
Please help me spot my error.

I am looking for the most elegant/short-coded version possible, if there is one. I mean other than creating your own View/ViewGroup with layouts, empty-labeled CheckBoxes and TextViews, etc...
