I've looked at getRelativeTimeSpanString() but 1) it calculates from now & 2) it appends a prefix/suffix.
Is there an easier way to do this, other than creating a custom datediff method and chopping all of that together with conditions myself?

I'm experienced with php, javascript and a lot of other scripting languages, but I don't have a lot of experience with java or android. I'm looking for a way to send POST data to a PHP script and display the result.

I'll try and explain this as best as possible...
If I search for a generic term at top it may say 5 results found, but in the search results it says to re word your search. Why won't it just tell me the 5 it found?
This is on a Sprint hero with 1.5 cupcake obviously.

I'm reworking some of my layouts to use Relative layout. I have some building blocks which I'd like to reuse. The problem I seems to have with the include of the layout and position other layouts out of this include. Example:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height=wrap_content"

I need to implement a screen containing a list of blocks one below the other. Each block will contain mutiple superimpose elements (Images, text) for which the relative position needs to be specified with respect to the top left corner of the block.
For creating the list of blocks i have used listview. For each block i tried to use relative layout.This works ok when the phone is in landscape mode and absolute position is specified relative to left edge of the phone. But when the phone is put in the portrait mode the layout gets distorted.
1) What layout can be used for this scenario?
2) Can relative positions be specified in terms of percentage of screen width/height instead of pixels?

I am implementing OnTouchListener and am receiving MotionEvent objects. Some ACTION_MOVE events reports absolute X/Y coordinates, while some reports relative coordinates.
How can I ask a MotionEvent what kind of coordinates it currently represents?

I'm attempting to add four controls to a layout; <label> <text> <seek> <radio> I want the seek widget to occupy all the available screen space between the edittext control and the radio control. However if I give it the value android:layout_width="wrap_content" only a small seek control is displayed and if I set the value to fill_parent it overwrites the radio control. I would have thought there would be a mechanism to occupy the free space between the text and radio controls dynamically. The xml file I am using is below You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="@+id/CameraSourcesScreen"

I need to calculate a rotation vector out of the data i get from Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION. The sensor data is defined like this: the values have to be recalculated to become a correct 3d position: values[0]: Azimuth, angle between the magnetic north direction and the Y axis, around the Z axis (0 to 359). 0=North, 90=East, 180=South, 270=West values[1]: Pitch, rotation around X axis (-180 to 180), with positive values when the z-axis moves toward the y-axis. values[2]: Roll, rotation around Y axis (-90 to 90), with positive values when the x-axis moves away from the z-axis need all three values like the Z axis value (from 0 to 360 degree). I tried a lot but cant figure out how to do this :/ So i bet there is a simple solution how to recall the values of sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION to make them a 3d rotation vector, but i just dont know how to do it. If you know the answer please tell me. Code...

How much space does a TextView take?
When I declare a TextView, is it possible to calculate how much space (height and width) it is going to take when actually rendered on the phone?
I have noticed that based on the different screen sizes of phones (or density), the TextView is rendered accordingly. I want to be able to calculate the exact height and width rendered.

So I'm developing an app for android, and before I get too much into it, I want to conceptually get my arms around what I am trying to do. Is it very difficult to calculate or track the most frequently accessed apps? Any ideas or insights about how I might go about getting this done would be greatly appreciated! I'm used to iphone development, and am quite new to the android platform.

In my app I am displaying a table where the individual cells are editable text fields (i.e. EditText objects). I am currently struggling calculating appropriate widths for these.
If I set the width to be as many "Ems" as the displayed text has characters, my fields are much to wide by about a factor of 2 and the table looks ugly and wastes lots of precious screen space. Setting the width in "Ems" is essentially like assuming the worst case, i.e. the width of a string under the assumption that it contains only the broadest characters in a font, usually 'M' (hence the name of the method), 'm', 'W', or '_'). But on average strings contain narrower characters and so most of these fields are half empty and much too wide for their actual content. I am thus desperately seeking a way to calculate a better fitting width, not that worst case width.
The "normal" way to do this in Java (in AWT or Swing at least) is to asks a widget's current Font (actually a Font's FontMetrics), to calculate and return the width that will be necessary to display a given string in pixels. But how does one obtain a TextView's Font? I haven't found any method to obtain a (Text)View's font and/or calculate a more appropriate width given the actual content of a cell's text string. How does one do that in Android?

I'm building a text at runtime that will be put into a TextView. This text has composed with different size fonts. I must calculate the width in pixels of this text. I have tried to use Paint.measureText, but it does not consider the different font sizes.
How can I calculate the real width?
this is an example: code..
In this example, if I set the relative size to "2f " or "3f"(for example), the total size that returns "MeasureText" is the same.

i'm trying to write an unit test for my Android's RelativeLayout. Currently, my testcode setup is as follow:public class SampleRelativeLayoutTest extends AndroidTestCase {private ViewGroup testView;private ImageView icon;private TextView title;@Overrideprotected void setUp() throws Exception {super.setUp();
// inflate the layout
final Context context = getContext();
final LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
testView = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.sample_layout,
null);
// manually measure and layout
testView.measure(500, 500);
testView.layout(0, 0, 500, 500);
// init variables
icon = (ImageView) testView.findViewById(R.id.icon);
title = (TextView) testView.findViewById(R.id.title);
}However, I encountered NullPointerException with the following stack tracejava.lang.NullPointerException
at android.widget.RelativeLayout.onMeasure(RelativeLayout.java:427)
at android.view.View.measure(View.java:7964)
at com.dqminh.test.view.SampleRelativeLayoutTest.setUp(SampleRelativeLayoutTest.java:33)

at android.app.Instrumentation$InstrumentationThread.run(Instrumentation.java:1447)
What should I change in my setUp() code to make the test run properly ?

Is there any info out there that describes what range of speeds you can expect on each of these? If that isn't available, it would be nice to be able to order them based on speed.

I have a button on a relative layout that hugs the buttom of the parent, but since there is not much above the button, the height of it is massive and extends to the object above it.What kind of code can I use to make sure the button stays at a normal height while still hugging the bottom of the parent?

In a RelativeLayout I have a Button to the right of a TextView. The problem is that the text view gets squished to the left of the screen.I want the Button to be squished to the right and the TextView take up all the remaining space.I can't use 'Fill Layout' on the TextView because the button then gets removed from the View completely.
