View 1 RepliesI need help with showing the integrated virtual keyboard on-screen. I extended a View class and I implemented these two methods (most of it is just stub code; for now I only want to display the keyboard):
CODE:.............
Where editor is an instance of my View. I noticed in the debugger that my onCreateInputConnection() is executed but after that the keyboard is not displayed on the screen. Using the TextView widtget and it's subclasses is not an option.
I want to display keyboard when my app gets started. I know we can get Virtual Keyboard when clicked on EditText field, but I want to show Virtual Keyboard without clicking on EditText.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHas anyone else had issues with input boxes not displaying what is typed? I have tried the stock keyboard, better keyboard, and am now using swype. They all do it and its random. I regularly use Google Talk and will be chatting for a little bit, hit the end button to lock the screen, come back 2 minutes later and it won't take anything I type. It usually comes back 5-10 minutes later or if I reboot.
This has been going on since 1.5 and continued in stock 2.1 and is still there rooted using Fresh 2.1.
For those of you that are familiar with better keyboard. I was wondering about an easy way to switch from the t9 keyboard to the regular qwerty keyboard. I was under the impression that swiping left would toggle between the 2 but all that does is bring me to the numbers and symbols keyboard. I've been changing back and forth to the android keyboard because its faster than going into the better keyboard settings.

Dev = ne0fhyk from XDA.
From the XDA forum: Link to app page = [APP][ROOT/Keyboard] Keyboard Manager - Dual keyboard: Portrait/landscape switch - xda-developers
Verbage:
Keyboard Manager allows you to customize what keyboard (input method) appear on input based on your phone orientation.
It displays the keyboards you have enabled on your android device, and let you select one per orientation (landscape/portrait).
As your phone switch orientation, the app automatically switch the keyboard.
Requirements:
- Rooted android device (app was tested on Samsung captivate 2.1)
- Root Explorer app, or similar app that allows you to edit the permissions of a file.
To install:
1- Download the app (KeyboardManager.apk) on your device sdcard.
2- Using Root Explorer, move the apk file to /system/app
3- Using Root Explorer, edit the file permissions like below:
-- User: 'Read/Write' checked
--Group: 'Read' checked
--Others: 'Read' checked
4- Exit Root Explorer
The app should be visible in your launcher as 'Keyboard Manager'
Update:
- Added option to disable notification icon
-' start on boot' feature is disabled because it's not yet complete and tested... Sorry for the confusion
Bugs:
-On certain applications (i.e: Messaging on Samsung Captivate), the input window occasionally freeze on orientation switch. Exiting the app, and resuming should fix it.
The app is still in development.
In 1.6 sdk, map is not displaying, i put all the permissions and uses- library in manifest, added the external map.jar from add-on... created AVD manager with google-API 4.But when running, its showing

I would like to play around with some ideas and develop a soft keyboard for Android to replace the default one.
Is there any general information about soft keyboard development for Android out there?
Any best practices or guidelines?
Can I do with my keyboard application pretty much anything I could do with a normal Android application?
Can I do HTTP connections to synchronize keyboard data with a cloud DB and other phones I have?
Can I open other windows/screens from a key press, e.g. to display a custom input interface different to a normal QWERTY one. If that doesn't work, can I use a pop-up dialog instead?
How to detect if the phone has a physical keyboard, and not an on screen software keyboard? The reason I need to do this is because my app needs multiple keys pressed simultaneously, and this isn't possible with an on screen keyboard.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a tabbed view with one Activity per tab, and when I switch from the first tab, which has a TextView, to the second tab, which only shows a clickable list, the soft keyboard is still there. I want it to go away.
I tried this:
CODE:.............
But this does not work, because there is no relevant view to provide, as there is no View on the screen that takes keyboard input.
I am new in Android and i am working to make an on-screen keyboard which can be visitable via arrow(direction) keys of my external keyboard. I mean i wanna move left, right, up and down in the on-screen keyboard's UI (keys) with pressing arrow keys from my external(hardware) keyboard. The key that cursor is on should be focused, when i press an arrow key from my external keyboard the focused key should change and when i press "enter" from my external keyboard it should be operated.(written to the screen etc.) How can i make this? Is there any idea? How can i make virtual keyboard's keys visitable? It doesn't look like moving around a matrix of buttons.

All I want to do is display a URL image. Does anyone have a template I could use that already displays an image that I can possibly modify? I've been looking all over the internet and the only answers I've found are extremely complex.I'm very good at learning something once I can get it to work from my end then proceed to analyzing the code.I am VERY new at Android programming.

View 15 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make sure my application looks good on the droid, my AVD seems to be messing up. The resolution is off, as the apps shortcuts are spaced the same as my g1 (I know they are usually spaced further apart, and the AVD loaded correctly once, and it's been jacked up since). Also changes I make are often not reflected, and when running a build it no longer says application already installed attempting to re-install, it just says installed successfully.In short, is there any way to fix an AVD that is acting up like this? I have tried deleting it and remaking it, but that doesn't fix it.

I really like the idea of having a full slide-out keyboard but I would also like a virtual one so if I'm not wanting to say much I can just use the virtual keyboard or if I'm in an area where it needs to be quiet I don't need to have the sound of the keyboard sliding open.

My ImageView for some odd reason is always displaying a picture in the middle, left of my screen despite the xml code insisting it to be in the center.So, the page should display as Picture in the middle, extending the width of the screen, the text below that and the button below that.But for some reason, the picture is displayed as a small, box thumbnail in the middle left of the screen.any ideas on a workaround?

I search to display a route between my own location and a contact location I want to join but I find yet no solution to do this. In the Android API and Maps add-on API I just find classes to display and listen Location, Distance, GeoPoint, etc., but no possibility to display a route between two points. Is it possible or not provided by the API?
