I have an activity which starts with a progress bar and I do not want the progress bar to go away until the processing is done, I have set the dialog to be setCancelable(false) so now user cannot cancel it with back but there are several other situations which hides the dialog for eg pressing 'search'.On clicking of 'search' button the search box and keyboard pops up,back button hides it and shows my activity which is always in the background but the dialog is gone.I can disable the search button but ideally I would want dialog to come back when the activity comes in foreground again. Any ideas how to do it?

Just downloaded donut sdk and played with global search, very cool, except a small issue. I integrate my application with global search functionality, but global search always shows "More results... xxx (n) " even if there is only 1 result from my application. I've disabled all other applications so that there is enough room for displaying the results of my application for sure. Any hint when it shows result directly and when it shows "More results..."?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm getting null pointer exceptions when I try to initialize Button and EditText objects in global scope, can't figure it out. I've commented out everything but the bare minimum for the app to display my layout, but this still causes a crash: private EditText addmoney = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.addmoney);
R.id.addmoney definitely, definitely exists. So what the heck? Is it impossible to declare EditText in global scope? I need to be able to call it from both onCreate and onPause in a class extending Activity, is there maybe another way I should be doing this
Before, when I pressed the search button (the one with the magnifying glass) it cued up the google search bar. Now, after theming, the search button does nothing from the homescreen, but does still work while in applications, the browser, the market, etc. I am running launcher pro, deodexed w/ revolution.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm aware that the home key cannot be caught, and I'm worried that a long-press on the Search key is another "Android-OS protected" key press. Just for testing, I tried to catch all keys with this code within my Activity, but it does not stop the Google Voice Search dialog from being triggered

So I have a fairly simple droid app. Part of it is a waterfall of alertdialog boxes makeing sure everything is ready to show the final display. Example Check GPS If (no GPS){ alert.show} The alert has one button that first dismisses the dialog, then performs the check again, and displays another dialog box if GPS is still not enabled.
This all works great if I go at a normal pace. But if I button mash the alert dialog button, eventually I get many alert dialog buttons on top of each other. The program still works, ya just gotta close all of them. .............
I added dynamic message successfully to my progressdialog.But when adding the button it doesn't take the button.

Can i change color of button in alert dialog when touch in that button in android. How?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI feel a little bit silly asking this, but I haven't been able to find any answers on my own. My Force Close dialog has a "Report" button. I think it's a great idea, and I wish everyone had it. At first, I thought it must be something I turned on without realizing it, but not only can't I find any setting that I might have touched, I also can't find any reference to this button existing on the Internet. I have a Droid, and I know 4 other people with Droids, and they say they don't have the option to report Force Closes. Am I special? Am I just missing something? The "report" button has been there for at least a few weeks now.When I use the Report button, I get a screen with a "feedback" field and a checkbox for "Include system data". Below that , it says "Information from feedback reports will be shown to the developer of the application." Under that are Preview and Send buttons.As a developer, I've never received one of these reports.I'd try to send a report to myself, but it seemingly only shows the button for apps installed from the market, and I don't know of a way to crash my production app.I suppose I could publish a simple crashing app just to try it out, but I thought I'd ask you folks first.Edit:You can view screenshots here: http://bentobin.com/crashReportImages/
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf user repeatedly presses back button, I need a way to detect when they are on the very last activity of my task/app and show "Do you want to exit?" dialog befor they return to Home Screen or whatever previous app they had running.
Its easy enough to hook onkeypressed(), but how do I figure out that this is a "last" activity in the task?
I created a custom dialog that extends Dialog. One button on that the dialog is an "OK" button which the user is expected to press when finished entering information in other fields. I cannot get any listeners set to that button to fire.
public class HeightDialog extends Dialog {
private Button okButton;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.heightdialog);

Is there any way (the best way) to avoid this happening? I am using a ProgressDialog which has one cancel button. On clicking the cancel button I want to disable the cancel button and change the message to "Canceling...". That bit's easy. Only once the cancellation has been fully processed do I want to dismiss the dialog. The only way I can think of is to use a custom layout but I would rather keep the default dialog look and feel (rather than trying to simulate it with my own code).
View 4 Replies View RelatedThere was a similar post to this but used an activity and I am using a dialog. This is real simple code and it works int he APIDemo (which is where I pulled the code from to begin with). The dialog display just fine with the correct number of radio buttons, but the text for the buttons does not display UNLESS I press/select an item. Then once I let up on the selection it disapperas again. what in the world am I not getting?
return new AlertDialog.Builder(this) .setTitle(R.string.choose_location_in_list) .setSingleChoiceItems(R.array.select_add_location, 1, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) { } }) .setPositiveButton(R.string.add_to_favs, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) { } }) .setNegativeButton(R.string.cancel, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) { } }) .create();
my array looks like this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <string-array name="select_add_location"> <item>Add to Top</item> <item>Add to Bottom</item> <item>Add and Define</item> </string-array> </resources>
How to create an alert dialog with radio button on the side?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a simple list view with some check boxes in an alert dialog. I need to option to add a select all/none but you can't bring up the menu in an alert dialog, and I want to do this function from a button. From what I've seen any kind of button (positive, neutral, and negative) all close the dialog regardless.
So, is this possible? If no, what alternatives do I have? My last mitigation is to simply create a new view and recreate everything. Is a new view the best solution?

Our search button.
Back in 2.1. Our search button searches everything, from people contact, internet, maps, music etc. Now the search button only limited to well even tho there are 3 options. All, Web, App. If u choose web, it searches the web. If u choose App, it goes to market app. If u choose All, it just went to the web. Now if I want to search for people contact. i have to open people app then click the search button. If I want to search something in my email, I have to open mail app then click the search button. Seriously, tho 2.2 is really impressive with the features. Losing the old search functionality is. Well I have to click twice to get to what I want...
Now 2.2 people app> search button=profit
then 2.1 search button= profit.
I've been trying to make my app implement the built in quick search, similar to how it is done in ApiDemos' "app/search/invoke search". I have tried everything from trying to follow different examples, to copying the code exactly as it is in ApiDemos. All I've found for the former have been concerned with older versions of the SDK, and simply not worked. As for the stuff that I can actually run and see working in ApiDemos, I've tried copying the following
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchInvoke.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchQueryResults.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchSuggestionSampleProvider.java
res/layout/search_invoke.xml res/layout/search_query_results.xml
res/values/arrays.xml res/values/strings.xml res/xml/searchable.xml
And everything under "Search Samples" in AndroidManifest.xml
This copying gets me a view that looks exactly like the one I'm facing when running ApiDemos, but when I click the search button, in the quick search box, Android always just opens up a browser window, with Google search results for the given query. I simply cannot find the critical component in ApiDemos that tells android that I want to use my own custom code for handling the search request. Both documentation and other online resources seem very lacking when it comes to this.
I can't figure this out. Some apps have a EditText (textbox) which, when you touch it and it brings up the on-screen keyboard, the keyboard has a "Search" button instead of an enter key.I want to implement this. How can I implement that Search button and detect press of the Search button?
