Android :: Creating Landing Page Similar To Twitter App And Others
Aug 29, 2010
I am wanting to make a reusable 'landing page' activity similar to like the activity when you first launch the official twitter app, facebook, or google io app, etc. Reusable is really the key here I would like for the activity to dynamically populate its gridview with the other activities in the application.
Is it possible to parse through the android manifest file to find my other activities? If so is it also possible to add my own xml attributes to the manifest file to distinguish which activities should show up in the gridview Or, is there some other way to find all existing activity classes in the package? Is there a way in java to look for any Class in a package that implements a particular interface?

I've been using Android for a little while, iOS before that, and WM6.x before that. I've really enjoyed Android, but there is one thing I notice on iOS that seems to be missing on Android. Specifically, with iOS, if you connect to a WiFi network that has a proxy/login page (e.g. hotel, commercial space etc) as soon as you attempt to use any app that requires a data connection, it recognizes it isn't connecting to the internet and pops up with login/landing page.
However, my observations on Android seem to be that it just doesn't recognize that happening, so for instance today I was at Lowe's (I had previously saved their public wifi) so my phone connected automatically. I then went into Gmail and I get a 'no available connection' which then meant I needed to launch Chrome which loaded the last page I was one, but since it did it from cache it loaded, which meant I needed to reload it which finally brought me to Lowe's landing page and allowed me to login. Compared to iOS this substantially more cumbersome.
Right now I'm running a de-sensed ICS rom on htc rezound, previously tested with thunderbolt and droid charge (all with stock and custom roms). Any hacks/mods/applications that will give me more of that seamless functionality in Android?

i am creating an app similar to navigator, only that it is not restricted to US only,
now, it works as follows
1) user speaks the destination location, which is converted to text, sent to google maps for processing
2) google maps calculates route between current location and destination location, sends back the route, in text form
3) this text is converted back to speech using text to speech converter, issued to user
till now, i have set up the sdk,adk,eclipse and adt, enabled google maps after getting the key from google using keytool, have the working code for text to speech converter, and i can get my current location(of emulator) using coordinated sent by eclipse.
Thing is, how do i integrate all thees independent modules?

I have created a WebView layout, which is used to access a specific website, however it would be useful to edit or create a custom "Web page not available" resource when a handset doesn't have a network connection or the page times out. I know it's possible because if you open the app "Wikidroid" while a handset is in Airplane mode you receive "Article not available" error page instead of the standard Android "Web page not available" error page.
Click here for screenshots of the default and custom error pages. I have search high and low on the internet and haven't come up with any online resources which address this request.

I have the tronsmart CX-919 mini pc running 4.2 and there is an issue with the browser reverting back to the home page or the previous page. When I try to display a webpage on our intranet it reverts back to the homepage or previous page after about 3 hours. I need it to display constantly. I read somewhere that it was a Download Manager issue and disabling it would work but I can't find where to disable it. Also it was stated that Flash was an issue but i tried uninstalling it and it just reinstalled itself and the problem kept occurring. I just want to display a page in a browser and for it to stay on the screen (full screen) until I manually navigate away from it. I plan to leave it on for weeks at a time.

how do you paste copied text (ie a URL) from a web page into a new window to open that page?
Also can you restrict internet connection to 3g or 2 g only?
I've just come from n900 so trying to figure out the differences!

Why is it every time I go to the internet, the last page viewed shows? I have my home page set to "Google." Shouldn't Google be the page that shows up? Also, it seems to save the history, even after I delete history, cookies, caches. Why? I was told to try and keep this, as well as deleted email, empty or the phone may become slow.

I am currently using Gtasks and I like being able to add a task that will allow an audible alert but lately for some reason the program has been buggy and its starting to frustrate me. I was wondering if anyone knows of an app that will do something similar All I want something that has a widget so I can see upcoming events or tasks and it must also be able to alert me audibly - the built in calendar on my Captivate is terrible. A calendar type app would be fine as well. I saw this in the market Pure Calendar Widget - anyone out there that can recommend this app? I would appreciate any info on an app I should try.

I used to have sense but rooted and went to a senseless ROM. The only thing I liked about sense was Facebook for HTC Sense. Every app I have found to sync facebook profiles only does the pictures.Is there an app that will sync birthdays to the calendar and pictures to my contacts, and allow me to choose which syncs where? I have some friends with Facebook names that I do NOT want to be as my phone contacts.

I am planning to purchase a DroidX on launch day and am switching from a BB Storm2. There are a few apps that I love on my Storm2 that I would like to have on the new phone. Wondering if you guys (and gals) can point me towards similar apps for the Android platform. 1. BerryBuzz - Customizes LED light for different notifications (I.E. can set light to Orange for SMS, Disco light for missed calls, etc.) 2. BerryWeather - Awesome weather app 3. Later Dude - Can set a reminder (calendar, task, call, e-mail, etc.) based on an incoming message/phone call 4. Pocket Informant - Great PIM app.

I came to know that Qt framework can let us develop Applications for Android and iPhone. Have some ever developed applications and submitted the Apps in App store and Android market. Is it similar to Titanium in the way of using same source code base for different platforms. If that is the case, can we use the same code for Nokia Applications.

Could anybody point me to the xml that gives a layout similar to the Android email app? Basically it's a list view, with 3 columns per row. The 1st and 3rd columns are fixed width, and the middle column expands to fill the view.
I understand how to customize a list view, but I cannot figure out the xml required for those rows.
