the Android phones in Slovakia have a custom locale - en_SK and cs_SK. Language is either Czech or English, location is Slovakia. Now I would like to have strings that target these locales. The default approach is to create a folder "values-CountryCode", for Czech Republic it's values-cs.
But I get a build error if I add a folder name values-en_SK or values-cs_SK: "invalid resource directory name"

I was working on trying to create my first `HelloWorld` in ADT but something messed up so I deleted all the files and folders and started a new project from scratch..but I am not able to debug this new project. I tried to create another project but everytime I am getting this error:
[2014-04-25 14:12:39 - App1] invalid resource directory name: /Users/Android_Mac/appcompat_v7/res/Icon
[2014-04-25 14:12:39 - appcompat_v7] invalid resource directory name: /Users/Android_Mac/appcompat_v7/res/Icon
There was an 'Icon' file in appcompat_v7..which I have deleted but the problem is still persisting
Also whats the use of `appcompat_v7`? i did not create it..
I created a popup-menu in my actionbar using a custom action provider. I use API 18.
I have an icon in the right edge of the action bar, if I click this icon my popup menu appears, so far no problem. If I click the icon, following message appears in the Log:
android log invalid package identifier when getting bag for resource number 0xffffffff
I have an XML resource file:
<resources> <section>
<category value="1" resourceId="@xml/categoryData1" />
<category value="2" resourceId="@xml/categoryData2" />
<category value="3" resourceId="@xml/categoryData3" />
</section> </resources>
Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?
I think I am finding what I think is a significant limitation in the way the resource directory qualifiers (-hdpi, -v4, -en, etc) work. I have three directories: drawable-hdpi-v4, drawable-ldpi-v4, and drawable (for normal screens and phones running 1.5). I have image X that I want to have a high resolution version of in the hdpi directory and a default one in the plain "drawable" directory. I also have image Y that I would like Android to upscale, or downscale depending on the screen size and only want to manage one image file located in the "drawable" directory. This is to save file size because I don't need crisp resolution for 240dpi phones and also so I don't have to create three versions of ALL images if I want Android to handle the scaling.
I am finding that using post-v4 emulators with 240dpi screens with Eclipse, they get confused with this "hybrid" directory structure and choose to treat all images the same way. i.e. if image Y is found in the "drawable" folder and not in "hdpi", it correctly displays it upscaled and then goes and sees that there is both an image X in "drawable" and "drawable-hdpi-v4" and chooses one of them at random and upscales whichever one it picks the same way it scaled Image Y. So, if it decides to use the high-res version it blows it up even bigger when it didn't have too as if it was found in the "drawable" directory. Do I have to have all of my resources in the "drawable" directory and let Android scale things or have three times the number of image files by having resources in all three directories to make sure all resources are found and treated consistently? I am hoping this is some weird emulator bug that does not reflect how the real OS would treat things.
Is it possible to have subfolders in the /res/drawable directory. I would like my resources to be organized in a tree view and not in a flat dir. If it is possible so how do I reference the resource from the code?
i've installed cygwin and the android kitchen. I took the stock rom provided to me by the manufacturer, i was able to set up the working folder. Then I did : "Build ROM from working folder", without making any changes to apk's or something like that.
When i got the update.zip file i tried flashing it with a recovery and using the update.zip in /sdcard method. The first method just stopped after verifying, the second method said it was an invalid package.
I believe there is something wrong with the signing of the rom.
lets say my device language is English and I downloaded an app that has two languages English and French the default language for the app will be English because its the language of my device. is there a way to view the app in French without changing my device language. Only the app.

I have created a custom list item layout just like in this article http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/layout-tricks-efficie....
Each list item has icon, title and summary.
I would like to declare an xml resource that would provide data for that list. Just like you use <string-array> to populate the list using ArrayAdapter<String>.
The simple ArrayAdapter<String> can be populated from:
CODE:..........
I need each <item> to have icon, title and summary. Somewhat similar to:
CODE:..........
I would use <menu> but menu doesn't have summary if I'm not mistaken.
I'm going through an Android tutorial and I'm trying to access a color I've defined in colors.xml
<color name = "my_background">#3500ffff</color>
Then I'm trying to access this color by name:
Paint background = new Paint();
background.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.my_background));
but it doesn't recognize my_background as a resource. If I let the suggestions come up, only a bunch of pre-defined colors pop up that are unrelated. Any ideas? It doesn't make sense for me, I see almost the exact same thing from the developer documentation and another site, but it doesn't work for me.

At some points while running my android application, I need to create a directory on the sd card, for a small number of users this fails and I can't figure out the reason for it... (I've found similar problems caused by the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission missing, it's there and it works for almost all users so I don't think this is reason) When mkdirs returns false I crash the program and log the following java.io.File properties, starting at the directory I want to create, then recursive printing properties of the parent directory and so on...
/sdcard/MyDirectory/Dir1/Dir2 (exists: false, canWrite: false, isDirectory: false, isFile: false);
/sdcard/MyDirectory/Dir1 (exists: true, canWrite: true, isDirectory: true, isFile: false);
/sdcard/MyDirectory (exists: true, canWrite: true, isDirectory: true, isFile: false);
/sdcard (exists: true, canWrite: true, isDirectory: true, isFile: false);
/ (exists: true, canWrite: false, isDirectory: true, isFile: false);
The strange thing is that the parent directory is writable (canWrite=true), I can't print the execute file permission but from what I've read, write is what you need when creating directories... What I've looked at so far is the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, if the sd card is full and if the sdcard is mounted read only:...........................
I have an app that instructed me to copy some data from my computer to the SDCard. So I plugged the Droid into the computer, mounted my Droid SDCard, looked at the directory, and copied the file. There are a bunch of files and folders listed (e.g. backups for apps, album artwork, etc.) as being on the SDCard. But when I go into Astro on the Droid and select "SDCARD" it shows "directory is empty." I don't get it. Why can't I see the folders and files on the SDCard that I can see on the computer screen?

View 1 Replies View RelatedLocale is one of my faverate App, it can create situations specifying conditions under which your phone's settings should change. For example, your "At School" situation notices when your location condition is "77 Massachusetts Ave.," and changes your ringer volume setting to vibrate.
With Locale's advanced touch-screen interface, you'll be set up in no time. Quickly define locations that are important to you using a simple Google Maps interface.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an object that is used for calling callback functions ----- static jobject o;
I have assigned the callback function to that object through a pointer, env -----

The same pointer, env, points towards the function CallVoidMethod( ) that uses JNI to reach to the java code.
env->CallVoidMethod(o, methodId, pDeviceId, deviceStatus, statusReason, connectionProgressInfo);
However on calling this function, the system is getting crashed, and VM says that it's an invalid reference to static jobject o and then it crashes.

So there is Locale for all other countries/languages where apps are available but I can't set Locale for Spain/Spanish?
See Locale list: http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Locale.html
How can I get Locale.SPANISH so that I can set my app to spanish? res/ values-es
How can I find or create a Locale.SPANISH?
Does that just make too much sense to hope for? I'd love for my home screens to automatically change for qork, travel, weekends, nights, etc.
