I use Contacts GroupU to allow me to send a group email, but I notice that changes I make on the desktop to the groups don't show up on the app. Is there a way to sync the two together after the initial setup?

I'd like to start an activity with some initial data (passed through Extras) that sets up a display page, while I simultaneously make a network call to get the rest of the data. I thought I'd pass this new data to the activity as a message to the activity's handler. Now, my question is: how can I make sure that the activity has finished drawing the page and is ready to show the message data? The data might come from the cache, so I'm worried the message may land in the handler before the page is ready to display it. Is there a way to synchronize the page draw and the message handling? E.g., is it possible to suspend the looper till the page is ready? What's the preferred way of doing what I'm trying to do?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've given up on finding an automatic OTA sync for my photos so I figured since I plug my phone to the computer once a day anyways, why not just use that. I'd like to have a program that would automatically sync my photos/videos or a specified folder/directory to my computer.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have all of my music in one place location. I do not use iTunes. I actually haven't listened to music that much in recent years. I no longer use my iPod.
Anyway, my questions is this...what do "Music People" do to simulate an iTunes experience on the Incredible? Or what do you do to simply stay synched between the Inc and your computer and keep files organized?
I have Amazon MP3. When you download songs from there they go into an Amazonmp3 folder. If using Doubletwist, they go into the Music folder on SD Card.
I just wanted to know what other people are doing to have all of their music in one location and have it backed up/synched on their home computers.
I'm trying to set up the exchange sync to sync my work email to my Desire.I go through the setup and fill in the details as required but when I go to finish the setup I always get a message saying 'Failed to create the account. Please try again later'. I've tried lots of times but always get the same message. I've tried varying the information I've put in to see if that helps but no joy.Has anyone else had this problem?

However, neither gCal nor aCalendar on the HTC show dates before August when I bought the phone.
I removed my google acct completely. Restarted the phone and re-entered the google acct. No change.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI searched the groups to find a topic about setting horizontal scroll view's offset, but no results. Some topics talked about ScrollView, and they are not expected. Here is my question: I have a HorizontalScrollView, with LinearLayout as its child, the LinearLayout contains a custom view, I finished the onDraw method of the custom view to draw something which is longer than the screen's horizontal size, so I think HorizontalScrollView is the right widget that I need. But I do not want to display the left-most part of my custom view, such as a calendar, I can display the last week and next week in the custom view, but what I want to put in the center of the scroll view is today. So, I wonder how I should set the initial offset of the HorizontalScrollView?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get the WebView to have similar behavior as the android browser. The browser opens all pages in a way that tries to fit their width to the screen. However, the default behavior of the WebView is to start at a 100% pixel scale so it starts zoomed in on the top left corner.
I have spent the last couple hours trying to find a way to get the WebView to scale the page to the screen like it does in the browser but I'm not having any luck. Has anyone found a way to accomplish this?
I see is a setting called setLoadWithOverviewMode, but that didn't appear to do anything at all. I also experimented with setInitialScale but on different screen sizes and web page sizes that won't be as graceful as the browsers scaling.
Any one have any leads?

I have 2 gmail accounts. Unfortunately, one of them is for my calendar and contacts and the other is for my personal e-mail. As of now, my cal and contacts are syncing fine but I do not use the e-mail account that is associated with thier username. I have my other account (personal e-mail) set up sepeartely....along with a few other e-mail accounts(work and etc.). I would like to know if i can leave my cal and contacts setup on the regular droid sync account but change the e-mail account to my personal acct. so it will "push" by default with out having it in a seperate palce on the droid. I know this is confusing but i dont know how else to explian it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFirst the camera button is unresponsive, and now after owning this phone for about a month, I'm at my wits end! Has anyone experienced this? Last night after leaving the movie theater I pulled my EVO out of my pocket and pressed the power button - the bottom row button lights come on, but the screen does not (battery is nearly full by the way). Pressing the power button makes the bottom buttons turn on and off, but the screen is off. I perform a battery pull, everything seems fine, I can get into the phone after it boots, but once I press the power button to turn the screen off, the screen never turns on again - but the bottom buttons light up like last time. Repeat, repeat, repeat. I have to perform a battery pull every time I turn the screen off. I've now changed the display timeout to 'never' - and if I keep the screen on permanently from the initial bootup, the phone works fine. Absolutely insane. If Sprint can't exchange the phone (due to lack of stock) I'm considering going back to a blackberry. This is my third EVO, and although I love it when it works, I need something a little more reliable.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just bought an unlocked HTC Desire from Hong Kong. I haven't put a sim card in it yet as I'm waiting for my old plan to live out its contract, but I couldn't resist having a play with the Desire in the mean time Because I bought it from overseas I can only seem to set my default language as English and then in brackets many Asian country options, eg English (Thailand) and English (Singapore). This would be fine except it is becoming frustrating when typing because all of the predictive text etc has many Asian characters in it and I'm struggling to write accurately.I've tried turning off predictive text and 'check invalid sequence', but it doesnt seem to work? I also tried downloading the application 'more locale 2' which had english (australian) but it doesnt seem to affect the keyboard. Does anyone have any advice regarding how to change the initial language setting? Is there any chance that when I put an Australian sim card into it the language options will change?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIn my case, I think the charger that came with the phone is not charging the battery properly. Last Friday I left the Evo charger at work and had to use a Nokia charger to charge the phone. The usage was the same, but now my battery doesn't seem to have the initial percentage drop and seems to last longer. Also, it charges bit faster (I know this is not great for the battery). Will do more testing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedYesterday I got a Nexus 7, but I haven't been able to use it yet. After letting it charge for a while, I hold the power button to boot, followed by a white Google logo on a black screen. After roughly 16 seconds, the screen goes blank and repeats the process. I am able to access the menu that shows the Android on it's back, with the body open with blue buttons. There is no red triangle.
From here, I can select start and it again shows the Google logo - but just hangs there. No difference after minutes of waiting. Same results for Recovery Mode. If the device is plugged in via USB to a charger / computer, the Nexus freezes when reaching the menu, after which I am forced to reboot the device.
I'm used with my Windows computers to make a genuine unstarted system image (Ghost, now Acronis)
When I have a new computer, I take out the main HDD and make an image or boot with an Acronis boot disk and make an genuine image, can I do something similar with Android devices?
Is EFS the system image or just the system files, restoring an EFS backup is enough to make a device bootable again without Root?
Windows PC suitable for this? ADB I guess...
Perhaps it's not possible because I haven't see any topic about making an genuine image before first start of an new device or restoring a factory image... Every time Root is involved.
