Does anyone else's battery go from 100% to 90% really fast? Mine does even after the update a couple weeks ago. I didn't know if it was just my phone. I charge it fully then after a few text messages it's on 90%. GPS is disabled, battery saver mode enabled, brightness 20%, social apps sync over WiFi only and that is never turned on.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWith the old 1.6 software on my X10, the lack of an automatic screen lock when in an active call was mildly annoying, as not all areas of the screen were active. However, with the new 2.1, just about anywhere on the screen becomes active (especially when juggling two simultaneous calls). What are the chances that we'll see a 'lock screen' function for phone calls? Those of us who actually use the phone for phone calls whilst holding it would surely appreciate it. Other android devices have had this for years.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWith my old dumb phone I was able to set a timed alarm in just a few button presses. I'd like to find an app that I would open, type in a time, and have it set, ideally as an alarm in the Clock app. Is there anything like that out there? All the alarm clock apps I've looked at seem to take a lot of time to set an alarm, or only do countdown timers.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor years now I've maintained a Tandy Color Computer Emulator applet on my home page. With the purchase of an Incredible I decided to do a port. Getting it going in Android didn't take long but I'm really surprised how slow it runs. You can literally see the pixels painting. I know there are other successful Android emulators so I must be doing something wrong.
My approach was to use a SurfaceView for rendering. There's a separate thread that runs a virtual 6809 CPU. Whenever that thread updates the emulated video memory, it calls SurfaceHolder.lockCanvas() with a Rect describing the part of the screen requiring a repaint. Then it calls the gfx routines with the resulting Canvas...this is where I did a repaint() in AWT/Swing. The gfx routines are smart enough to just render what's in the clipRect. Perhaps I'm still stuck in AWT but I can't think of any way to make this thing run at an acceptable speed. I tried to coalesce the gfx calls but that didn't work either. Any thoughts?
Currently in an Android application that I'm developing I'm looping through the pixels of an image to blur it. This takes about 30 seconds on a 640x480 image.While browsing apps in the Android Market I came across one that includes a blur feature and their blur is very fast (like 5 seconds) so they must be using a different method of blurring.Anyone know a faster way other than looping through the pixels?

The better keyboard application is better than the stock keyboard in almost every way. But there is one big problem with it that I've found, and that's that it has trouble registering two nearby keys tapped in rapid succession, often registering neither of them. If I try and type "that" with two fingers, I'll often just get "th"-- it interprets left thumb pressing "a" and right thumb pressing "t" as... nothing, I guess.
View 16 Replies View RelatedI would need a fast updating (minimum 5 frames/second) appwidget which can be on the desktop all the time (like the cpu usage or other things mostly measurement gauges).The appwidget is not a "must" but I've found it easy to configure for any customer so the management is easy and I need those gauges to be shown like an appwidget on the desktop.The only problem is the update speed - I've seen that appwidget is not really thought for my needs. In my case it's not about phones, the small unit will always have power supply so draining the battery is not an issue. I could tweak the 30 minute update time but it doesn't helps too much - the appwidget framework is simply too slow with all that serialization and would eat too much CPU. What other solutions can be used? I've seen that a system service (LoadAverageService for example) would do the job but that one is not really configurable, has to be compiled into Android so I kinda don't like it. The same is valid with custom app screens or any other solution which needs an custom Android build. So this is a last solution if nothing else works.
A good solution could be if the Appwidget framework would accept other views than the enlisted ones (AnalogClock, Button, Imageview, etc.) and the update would be done internally in the widget, not through the appwidget serialization chanels.
My home PC is an Intel E6300 with 4GB RAM. My company PC is an Intel i5 quadcore with 4GB RAM. I ran the latest Android emulator (came with SDK) on both PC's (both running Windows 7 x64), and it was unbearably slow on both PC's.On my home PC, I ran Windows Phone 7 emulator and it worked smoothly. I booted up with my Hackintosh on the same PC and ran iPhone simulator and it also worked smoothly.Anyways what kind of hardware is required to run Android emulator that smoothly, i7 with 16GB RAM? Or the Android emulator is so slow that even the top-of-the line desktop CPU's are not enough and I should get a real Android device?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using the android emulator to run my programs. But its really slow. It takes around 90 seconds to startup and show the home screen. Can I tweak it so that I can reduce this time considerably?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some binary data (pixel values) in a int[] (or a byte[] if you prefer) that I want to write to disk in an Android app. I only want to use a small amount of processing time but want as much compression as I can for this. What are my options?In many cases the array will contain lots of consecutive zeros so something simple and fast like RLE compression would probably work well. I can't see any Android API functions for this though. If I have to loop over the array in Java, this will be very slow as there is no JIT on most Android devices. I could use the NDK but I'd rather avoid this if I can.

*The article itself is unrelated*, however, if you see the Droid X picture in the Ad at the bottom of the article, the in call screen has twitter update of the person. As far as i can tell, the in-call screen seems to be otherwise essentially AOSP call screen. IS this a customisation that Droid X people get, can i do this on my HTC Hero (Rooted with Froyo)?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI've been looking for a way to only show my game to "fast enough" phones in the Market but I can't find any good answer. Some people suggest to target by SDK, but that has nothing to do with the speed. I've seen some to target by screen size, but some Acer phones and the HTC Legend are fast enough for my game but have the same screen than the HTC Hero which is pretty slow.
I also saw some people filtering by OpenGL ES version but I can't find any sort of database that tells me which phones have OpenGL ES 2. Android 2.0 is supposed to support it, but I don't know if phones like the HTC Magic, after being updated to 2.0 will support it or they will be stuck in 1.1.
I need to create a similar function to Toast.makeText() but more fast to disappear. I have seen such messagebox in the software "Le monde fr" when you select a button from the toolbar down. Its appear and disappear very fast if you move to another icon. I m looking to do the same functionnality but cannot figure out how to do that.Message box should not be modal, what i want is kind of a fast tooltip. The tooltip should appear and disappear fast.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a listview with a custom arrayadapter that handles about 15 strings. The style of each row alternates (between labels and values for those labels--for example row 1 could be "email address" and row 2 would be the actual email address). I'm changing the style of each row to alternate like this in the arrayadapter's getView() method. So if the item at the current position is a label, I'll change the styling from the default row style (which is what the values have applied to them). When the listview first loads, the styling is perfect and just how I want it to be. If I scroll the list slowly up or down, it stays that way. However, if I scroll the list fast up and down, the styling of the value rows starts changing to that of the label ones until all of the rows have the styling of a label row. I've used custom adapters on other listviews in the app with no problems like this. Found out that it also changes all of the rows to the label styling on portrait->landscape orientation changes. Doesn't do this on landscape->portrait changes. Below is the adapter I'm using.
public class DetailsAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> { private TextView text = null; private String item = null;
public DetailsAdapter(Context context, int resource, int textViewResourceId, String[] objects) { super(context, resource, textViewResourceId, objects);
} @Override public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { text = (TextView) super.getView(position, convertView, parent); item = getItem(position);
if (item.equals("Name") || item.equals("Mobile") || item.equals("Home") || item.equals("Email") || item.equals("Address")) { text.setBackgroundColor(0xFF575757); text.setTextSize(15);
text.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD); text.setPadding(8, 5, 0, 5);
} else { text.setPadding(15, 15, 0, 15); } return text;
} @Override public boolean isEnabled(int position) { item = getItem(position);
if (item.equals("Name") || item.equals("Mobile") || item.equals("Home") || item.equals("Email") || item.equals("Address")) { return false;
} else { return true; } } }
I need to implement a screen having around 1000 thumbnails. This screen should support gesture based scrolling as well as fast scrolling using a scrollbar with thumb. So if user want to move from page 1 to page 100 he can just drag the thumb and reach there. But there is no such control in Android. There is seek bar but its look and feel is not similar to what I want. I also want to flick and swipe functionality which can be inherited using horizontalscrollbar. So i want to add functionality of horizontal scroolbar as well as of seekbar in my application.

Does anyone else already do this?
