Android :: Can I Save Energy With Color Scheme?
May 25, 2010
I'm wondering what color-scheme is more energy-saving for AMOLED display? I've already decided to manage c-scheme according to ambient light, thanks to this post: Somewhat-proof, the link posted by nickf: Ironic Sans: Ow My Eyes. If you read that in a well lit room, the black-on-white will be the most pleasant to read. If you read it in a dark room, the white-on-black will be nicer.But if I want to save battery power, should I use bright content with dark background or vice versa?Is it possible anyway (they say it's not working for simple LCD)?

How would you implement different color themes in your app?All I can see now is plain set color onCreate every activity and control.Also, how would you store different color schemes in xml? Just an entries of with different names?

change the color scheme of stock calendar app? Personally, I don't like black background and want to change it to soft white or something like that. After syncing with google calendar, Maroon color of google calendar events on balck background makes it very hard to read.

Is there a way to change the color scheme in the phone app, which also looks like the system default color scheme of white text on black background?Walking outside in bright sunlight looking at white text on black background is nearly impossible to see. Black text on white would be much better.

I have a "Energy Android Smart TV Box" (ICS 4.0.3, ARM Cortex A9, 512MB RAM, WiFi, DVB-T, 3xUSB ...) energysistem.com/en/products/android_tv
The only way to connect to the Internet is through a VPN connection (PPTP), but it bothers me a bug in Android.The error I'm getting in the log is as follows:
Creating PPPoX socket
Socket () Protocol not supported.
I found a patch for it, and the manufacturer provides kernel available for download.Patch is here: code.google.com/p/android-x86/issues/detail?id=451...I tried to manually apply patch. I replaced some code in files if_pppolac.hi if_pppopns.h. But I do not know how compile kernel
I also tried to install latest fw update, several alternative ROMs and several VPN clients but nothing worked. always the same error: Socket () Protocol not supported. The best would be if I could put Jelly bean on box. In Jelly Bean pptp works fine.

I draw a space ship :
Code:
private void spawnSpaceship() {
Rectangle spaceship = new Rectangle();
spaceship.x = MathUtils.random(0, screenWidth-32);
spaceship.y = screenHeight;
spaceship.width = 32;
spaceship.height = 32;
// spaceship.energy = 100; <= this line won't compile
spaceships.add(spaceship);
lastDropTime = TimeUtils.nanoTime();
}
As you can see, spaceship has parameters : x position, y position, width, and height.
I'm a noob and I would like to add an "energy" parameter but this line won't compile :
Code:
spaceship.energy = 100; <= ERROR

I have implemented a routing protocol on an Android 1.6 mobile that uses wireless (ad-hoc) network in order to exchange messages. Now I would like to evaluate it under an energy consumption point of view, the base would be to try to calculate the energy wasted to transmit a single packet, do anybody has any idea how to do that? Software/hardware solutions are welcome! Thanx :)

By the way, how do guys implements a "many to many" relationship in sqlite for android ? How do you reflect the cascade regarding deletion of rows and guarantee the database integrity?

I built an Android application that requires OAuth. All was working well using a custom scheme call back which is intercepted by Android. It seems that Yahoo have changed the goal posts and now the custom scheme is not accepted by Yahoo.I am now looking at possible alternate approaches. My first attempt is to use a normal http scheme and modify my intent filter to intercept the new URL. I have the following in my AndroidManifest.xml :
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"></action>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"></category>
<data android:host="www.test.com" android:scheme="http"></data>
</intent-filter>
Where www.test.com will be substituted with a domain that I own. It seems :
* This filter is triggered when I click on a link on a page.
* It is not triggered on the redirect by Yahoo, the browser opens the website at www.test.com
* It is not triggered when I enter the domain name directly in the browser.
So can anybody help me with
* When exactly this intent-filter will be triggered?
* Any changes to the intent-filter or permissions that will widen the filter to apply to redirect requests?
* Any other approaches I could use?

I'm seeing that it would be good to have some sort of charting scheme (or possibly just a table-based design strategy) when designing Android apps.Have any such schemes been proposed?

I want to set up a BroadcastReceiver to handle PACKAGE_REPLACED, but I only want to be notified when my package is replaced. It works fine if I specify a data tag with scheme="package" but then I get notified when any application is reinstalled or upgraded. I can't figure out how I'm supposed to specify the package name which is in the scheme specific part -- that is, when my BroadcastReceiver gets the intent in onRecieve(), if I do intent.getData().getSchemeSpecificPart(), that's the package name, but is there any way I can filter for only that in my intent-filter?

I want to capture Intents with a specific Uri pattern that uses the http scheme. I DO NOT want the chooser dialog to pop up. The Android API advertises filtering of intents based on pattern matching of the path part of the Uri:http://developer.android.com /guide/topics /manifest/data-element.html However, when I try to specify a pattern for my path other than ".*" (which pops up the chooser, which I'm trying to avoid), it doesn't work, and the browser automatically handles the Intent. So, my question is, what is the purpose of the pathPattern/pathPrefix if, for the http scheme, it either auto resolves to the browser, or pops up the chooser anyways?

AT&T falsely advertised a $349 off contract price and then changed it on launch day.Samsung Captivate $499 Off Contract » BriefMobile
This is unbelievable. Totally false advertising. Twitter and Facebook hold weight today in terms of press releases... I think ATT really screwed up on this one big time!

1. I want to use my own color for selecting ui views.
By default, android shows the selected view with background as orange. I want to show the view background color as red.
2. In the same way, I want the same behaviour should be applied to whole application.

I got a little textview defined in layout xml:
CODE:.........
As you can see the background color is "background_light" (this results in white color) and the text color is "primary_text_light" (this results in black color).
I would have thought that primary_text_light would result in a "light" color like white, not black ;-)
When i change "primary_text_light" into "primary_text_dark" the text color becomes color white.
Is this a bug in the naming of the default colors?

To give the user of my app an indication which field currently has the focus I am trying to change the background color of some of my fields depending on the current state, however, I am having troubles understanding Androids Color State List Resources:
There is this example at the bottom of http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/color-list-resource.html. If I try exactly the same, i.e. if I want to adapt the textColor , things do work. However, if I try an only slightly different thing, namely to adapt the background color, things do not work and I don't understand why? Why is this so inconsistent?
To make it simpler to understand what I am trying to do, I append my misc. .xml files:
The AndroidManifest.xml file:
CODE:.........
If I run this as shown here, it works, i.e. I get a button whose text color changes depending on whether the button is focuses, pressed, etc.
If I uncomment the lower button, where I just flipped the attribute values for textColor and background I get an exception, stating
... <item> tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or child tag defining a drawable
What the heck am I missing here? Why is that color state list acceptable as a text color but not as a background color? How does one specify a view's background color depending on the view's state?

I'm programming my first Android application and I've stumbled over a little problem.
I've created my own adapter ("extends BaseAdapter") for my ListView and in my "public View getView(...)" I have the following code:
My problem: How do I set the color back to "Color.BLACK" after the user releases the touchscreen?
I'm looking for something that is similar to Javascripts "onMouseUp" or "onKeyUp" methods. An OnClickReleaseListener() perhaps?
Can you point me in the right direction?

I'm trying to create a color picker for Android that looks like a minimalistic version of Gimp's. So, it has a hue slider and a rectangle with saturation/value variants of a color chosen in hue slider.
Question: what is the best way to create the rectangle?
Right now, I'm creating an 200x200 array of pixels, but it takes ~5sec to create and display rectangle with that array. And I need colors in rectangle to change whenever I change the value in hue slider...
Rectangle is bitmap, Can I use color matrices on that and how?

I have a Motorola Moto G 8GB which is running very low on storage (only about 800mb left). This phone does not take Micro SD cards but it comes with 50GB Google Drive storage. However i haven't used this at all. I am wondering whether i could download android apps and games to google drive, dropbox etc. Games like Real Racing take up about 1GB so i cannot download it to my phone. Can i download it to the Cloud? If this is not possible, is there any way that i could save the app data on the cloud. E.g. The Simpsons: Tapped Out is about 37mb to download off the play store, but then you must download the updates etc which are about another 250mb. is there anyway to save this 250mb on the cloud. Or any other games data.
