I'm pretty sure it's not viable to do what I'd like to based on some initial research, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask the community of experts here in case someone knows a way.
I'd like to create a custom field for contacts that the user is able to edit from the main Contacts app; however, the user should only be allowed to select from a list of four specific values. A short list of string values would be ideal, but an int with a min/max range would suffice.
I'm interested in knowing if it's possible either way, but also wondering if it make sense to go this route performance wise. More specifically, would it be better to look up a contact (based on a phone number) each time a call or SMS message is received or better to store my own set of data (consisting of name, numbers, and the custom field) and just syncing contact info in a thread every so often? Or syncing contacts the first time the app is run and then registering for changes using ContentObserver?

I am using the following method in a new application I'm developing. There is a main activity, which instantiates different classes that extends RelativeLayout and I'm using setContentView to switch between the different modules of the application. I wonder if this is a good approach or necessarily I have to use different activities to the several screens the app haves.

Is is possible to get the virtual keyboard key events on a custom input field ? I tried using keyboardView, but somehow that doesn't work. Is it mandatory to use the android input method classes to get the events?

Have new Droid X, getting settled in and doing all the setup tasks. Migrating from Palm Treo. Exported all contacts by category(group) as CSV. Imported into Gmail, all was well. I then set up my ICE contacts and notes. Now my contacts are gone from the main contacts button on the home screen. I still have access to the contacts from inside the dialer,email and messaging apps, but when I press the contacts icon on the lower right of the home screen, I get
Contacts: Status
Contacts: Google (with the + mark to add a new contact)
No recent status updates. If I touch the 'Contacts: Google' button, I can choose between 'all contacts, Favorites, Google, Phone contacts', but all are blank.

I was looking over this code about extending an ImageView: http://marakana.com/forums/android/examples/98.html
And i was wondering how can i add the new View to an existing xml layout file, along with some other views.
Already i did this inside my main linear layout:
CODE:..........
But the problem is that this way the onDraw method doesn't get called.
Maybe some examples where you combine CustomViews with xml layout.

Ive read through the docs and searched on here, but I'm not quite understanding how all the pieces fit together. Was wondering if anyone has a clear explanation of how to grab a single column of data from Contacts and have it populate an autocomplete box.

Curious to know the reason behind not allowing updating UI elements from background thread in Android. Will main thread does something more (probably interacting with framework) after updating the UI elements so that changes can be seen on the screen? Is it the same case with other GUI tool kits?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Since the root element is a LinearLayout, which extends ViewGroup, why does main.xml get turned into a View instead of a ViewGroup? For example, in my main Activity class, I try to get the number of subviews that the LinearLayout contains like this:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ViewGroup vg = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.layout.main);
Log.v("myTag", "num children: " + vg.getChildCount());
but it crashes when i call vg.getChildCount(). What is the right way of doing it?

When I have a huge number of contacts (say more than 150), while reading 155th contacts, I see my application is getting killed and cat log say it because of excessive JNI global refreences. Can anyone pls suggest what is causing the problem and how to solve it. Also, Im not seeing any errors if I have less than 150 contacts............

My purpose is very simple : each 1second, I want to redraw an object on different place on background. I do not know where my error on this code below. Here is my code:
public class My_View extends View{ private Bitmap mBackground_img;
private Drawable mMoveObject; private int mObjectw,mObjecth; private int Dx,Dy;
private Handler myHandler = new Handler(); private long lasttime;
public My_View(Context context,AttributeSet ats,int ds) {
super(context,ats,ds); init(context);
} public My_View(Context context,AttributeSet ats) { super(context,ats);
init(context); } public My_View(Context context) { super(context);
init(context); } public void change() { invalidate();
} private void init(Context context) {
Resources res = context.getResources();
mMoveObject = res.getDrawable (R.drawable.lander_firing);
mBackground_img = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, R.drawable.my_pic);
mObjectw = mMoveObject.getIntrinsicWidth();
mObjecth = mMoveObject.getIntrinsicHeight();
Dx = Dy = 0; lasttime = System.currentTimeMillis() + 1000;
Thread mthread = new Thread(null,doBackground,"Background");
mthread.start(); } private Runnable doBackground = new Runnable() {
public void run() { long now = System.currentTimeMillis();
if(lasttime < now ) { Dx = Dx + 10; Dy = Dy + 10;
lasttime = now + 1000; myHandler.post(change_view);
} } }; private Runnable change_view = new Runnable() {
public void run() { change();
} };
@Override public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawBitmap(mBackground_img,0 ,0 , null);
mMoveObject.setBounds(Dx, Dy, Dx+mObjectw, Dy+mObjecth);
mMoveObject.draw(canvas);
} }

I want to build my own custom view which should look like the Crysis-GUI.At first I designed a XML-based Layout and made it visible via the setContentView(int resid)-Method. Worked pretty well.But now I wan't to go a step further and draw in my Layout. So I created a new Class, let it extend View and overrode the onDraw()-Method. So far so good.But how can I still use my XML-Layout? I can't do setContentView anymore, so how could the same effect be achieved?

I am really trying to figure this out. So I go into Messaging and I'd like to type in the "to" field a contacts name, like facebook does it and it starts to list matches and then you just pick the one you want. Like it searches your contacts, but I can't figure out how to do this. Like I can only type in a number but I don't have anyones number memorized that's the point of having a saved phone book so am I missing something here?

at the bottom you see a "Add relationship" field. If you click Add relationship, you are presented with a list of relationships. In here I selected Father. There is then an input box next to it.
What are you supposed to put in there? I've already told Google this contact is my Father, even if I put his real name in as the contact details, it still gives me that option.
At first I thought perhaps it was for Google Now. For instance, my girlfriend is down as her full name, so when I say "Call my Girlfriend" it would call her. However it seems like that isn't the case.

I have just received my HTC Desire, last week. It's my first Android toy.
I've noticed than when synching with Outlook Contacts on the PC, some fields are not copied to the phone, for example the 'car' field, which is an additional phone number field.
Other than this, My previous phone was a BB Storm2. At the moment, My opinion is that, THe HTC desire is faster than the bb, its browser much better, but for day to day 'real world' use, the bb is much much better. More reliable, and although less options, but gives you those that you realy need.

I would like to show a custom input field (specifically, one containing only 9-0 and two extra buttons containing decimal separator (, or .) and a delete button). I could create a custom IME, but (as far as I know) that would have to be set by the user as the system-wide input method. Is there a way to implement an input method and bind it to a specific input field?
