My husband had an Iphone long before I got my great HTC Desire. I've become addicted to a game from absolutist.com called Bubble Shooter. The game is available for virtually every system EXCEPT for android. It is however, available for e.g. java and linux. Does anybody know how to make this game work on my HTC Desire?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using SurfaceView to draw some stuff using canvas. The problem is that I want to show everything horizontally by default and keep it that way regardless the position of the device. I'm not using any layout XML file to show the SurfaceView; instead I just have a class that extends SurfaceView and I do setContentView(new Panel(this)).

According to the android SDK development guide, using a surface view is better because you can spawn a separate thread to handle graphics. Th SDK development guide claims that using a custom view with invalidate calls is only good for slower animations, less intense graphics.However, in my simple app, I can clearly see that using a custom view with calls to invalidate seems to render faster.What do you guys know/think about this?My touchEvent code is exactly the same, and my drawing code is exactly the same. The only difference is that one is all in the UI thread, and the other is using a tread to handle the drawing.

I have a Sprint Hero and I'm trying to add a shortcut to call the person I call the most. I found AnyCut, but it's not working. I open the app, hit "Direct Call" and then it simply says "No Matches Found."
How do I select a contact? Am I doing something wrong?
Are there any other free apps that I can use to create a shortcut (that I can rename and create a custom icon)?
I'm betting im missing one small thing. I've looked on the developer site and i've read some tutorials and i'm just not seeing what i did wrong. I'm trying to use a ListPreference to decide which sound to play on a button click. I have this at the top:
public String greensound;

SharedPreferences prefs=PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
greensound = prefs.getString("greensound", "gsone");

I have a basic calculator app I'm making. Two activities, the main one and ResultView.
I've made it where I click a button on activity A to go to activity B. The log says activity B is started and "displayed" successfully, the title for the new activity loads, but the body does NOT show. I added a simple Text view with static text.. see the result.xml at the bottom. I also tried inserting information programmatically, but that didn't do.
When I debug the program, I tried putting breakpoints as the activity is called with startActivity() as well as on the first line of the onCreate method within the ResultView class (my activity "B") but the program never hits the second breakpoint. In fact, it looks as if Looper.class is called in the end.
This bit of code is placed in the button handler on acitivity A:
CODE:........
The activity is in the manifest, within the "application" tag:
CODE:....................
If more info is needed, let me know...in short, "HELLO WORLD" does not display at all.
I am not able to insert entries in the database. For the record, this was working previously, but I went a few weeks without working with it and now it just doesn't work anymore.
Here is the code where I insert the new row:
Code:
//this is the code where I try to insert the data
dbAdapter.open();
dbAdapter.EnterCreateHistory(DatabaseAdapter.WALKER_HISTORY_TABLE, "fdfsf", "fdfsf1", "fdfsf", "fdfsf", "fdfsf");
[Code]....
The thing is, I am not getting any exceptions or anything. It's just that my number of inserted rows always comes out as 0.
just wondering if theres a simple guide to follow to get app2sd working? rooted but just wanna get that working lol any help is appreicated :>)

I have now TN Shooter Rom on my evo 4g and i've noticed that when i record video on portrait the video playback is stretched out, seems to be fine when i record video holding the phone in landscape.
I've also tried flashing another Rom but the same thing happens.
I need a LinearLayout to contain 3 TableLayouts, and I can't get it to work. This is where the problem is I'm sure:
mTableLayout.addView(mLinearLayout, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(nTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(oTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(pTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
How Do I make this work? I can get it to work just find when I only add a single child view, but when I have multiple children view objects my app crashes.
I noticed while playing xgalaga that the shooter kept stopping while moving it left and right with the trackball. It turns out that you have to press the trackball very slightly while rolling it for the movement to properly register. Is that normal?
