Android :: HTC Hero Stocks Widget Scrolling Ticker Functionality

Nov 25, 2009

I have an HTC Hero from Sprint in the US and was curious about the how the Stocks HTC widget scrolls text like a ticker. It is only the 4x1 sized widget that scrolls quotes. As far as I know, homescreen widgets can only use RemoteViews for the layout, which is limited to the following layouts and widgets (from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#Creat...

* AbsoluteLayout * FrameLayout * LinearLayout * RelativeLayout * AnalogClock * Button * Chronometer * ImageButton * ImageView * ProgressBar * TextView

Descendants of these classes are not supported.

I know that this could be done in an app with android.widget.scroller, but that can't be used in a homescreen widget. Would this functionality be specific to the Sense UI homescreen capabilities? I guess, my main question is if this can be replicated for a standard Android widget and if so how.

I know there are several scrolling stock ticker widgets available but I haven't found one that allows you to interact with the widget to scroll it back and forth as well. Any app with this functionality?

HTC Hero :: No Update Of Stocks And Weather Widget Using 2G / 3G

Oct 28, 2009

I have recently bought an HTC Hero and updated it with the new ROM. One of the reasons I bought it is to be able to get stock prices on the move. I do have the following problem. The stocks and weather widgets only update themselves using a WiFi connection and not my 2g/3g network. I don't think is a network problem or a GPRS settings problem as I am able to receive my emails and also connect to the internet using 2g/3g. There must be a problem with the widgets.

HTC Hero :: Cannot Connect To Wifi - Uninstall Stocks And Peep ?

Jun 3, 2010

As I'm a new Hero (and android) user I have few questions:

- can not connect to my wifi - my router is a d-link which is visible (with wep2) but when I try to connect the message "obtaining address" persist and then stops everything with no results. I have installed also wifi analyser which is not helping. Any possible solutions?

- how can I uninstall "stocks" and "peep" ?

- should the 3G be on all the time for mms send/receive?

- how do I make my hero change automatically the network (in state roaming)? instead manually

- how is hero working with 2.1. rom version?

- can you advise me for some android apps (possibly free): gps navigator and office editor

In 3G everything is workin fine so I'm satisfied with android.

Android :: Flick-scrolling Contacts Widget

Jan 10, 2010

I'm new to Android, and have the Nexus One. Before getting it, I was planning on getting the Nokia X6, which has a very cool widget that shows pics of your contacts in a row on your home screen, and allows you to scroll through them.

I assumed there would be a widget like this for Android, but can't find one. All I've found are ways to put a single contact as a shortcut on the desktop, or a few contacts together. I really want it to be compact and scrolling though. Any ideas?

Here's a pic of the X6-- you can see the scrolling contacts widget at the top.

Android :: Vertical Scrolling Style Gallery Widget

Nov 11, 2009

Gallery in Android is only horizontal scrolling support. And we want make one with vertical scrolling support.

We got plans below. Can anyone give us some advice about which one is right?

1) Linearlayout ( We think it's bad)

2) ListView ( We think it's a good option and get a little worry about performance--too many pictures!)

3) subclass of AbsSpinner like Gallery and do something like Gallery source.

Which one is easy, time-saving and less performance or other problems.

General :: Scrolling Photo Gallery Widget

Nov 2, 2010

I am looking for the following that I haven't been able to find by searching:

-Widget with different sizes
-Widget will automatically slideshow from selected drawers at a set interval (with random as option)
-You can scroll through the photos by swiping, preferrably seamless (with launcher that allows scrollable widgets I guess) so you can scroll really quick
-Clicking a picture will bring you its source

Would this be possible (or is there such a widget already)?

HTC Hero :: Auto Rotation Functionality Has Stopped

Nov 24, 2009

I've had my Hero (G2 T-Mobile UK) for about ten days and feel I made a great choice. However, I noticed today that the auto rotation functionality has stopped. I've checked it is selected in settings and have callibrated too but it no longer works. Also, from the standard music player I cannot get back to the album cover-flo display, only list views and current track etc. The original view of the installed album art you can flick through has gone - or at least I can't find my way back to it. I updated to latest firmware before using the phone and can only think that one of the apps I've loaded has messed up these features? The apps I got were all recommended ones from another thread somewhere so shouldn't be buggy but I did grab about six, one after the other which maybe the problem? The day after installing them I switched the phone on next day and got some kind of reboot screen?? Maybe the phone needs a soft/hard reset but will this wipe it and how do I do it - or should I delete my apps? Hope someone can help cos I love the phone and don't really want to do without these features.

Sprint HTC Hero :: Test Blue Tooth Functionality Of Fresh 1.1

Jan 24, 2010

I finally decided to root my phone Friday, then while playing with it last night I arrived at the point of having to load a rom or use adb to remove the Sprint bloatware. Well after much deliberation I decided to load Fresh 1.1 and am loving it! My graphics are sharper, noticed most clearly on my lock screen, which is the bullet hole in glass, and my programs list, before I could barely make out Achmed's face, now it is clear as a bell! I am currently at 10% on my up-time, battery I will have to watch a few days and see if I notice a difference since Sunday is a slow day on the phone for me. Things do appear a little snappier in some respects, other things have actually slowed a tad, but nothing bad enough to complain about. I loaded clear widgets, but with my wallpaper (Hokusai-The Great Wave) I could not read my calendar and other things due to the light colors, so I did a restore and was back to my fresh Fresh 1.1 easy as can be. Pre-Kitchen and Fresh 1.1 are awesome pieces of work, kudos! Now, if my wife will ever give me my truck back I can test the blue tooth functionality of Fresh 1.1!

Sprint HTC Hero :: Immature OS - Can't Lock Screen While In Call - Obvious Functionality Is Missing?

Oct 23, 2009

Here are the issues I am having:

1. Can't lock screen while in a call. Red button just hangs up the call.

2. Apps cannot be installed to sd card. Internal Phone Storage after a device wipe shows about 136MB free. I downloaded about 5 or 6 apps and the phone ran out of room. I deleted the apps, but the space was not reclaimed. This is why I had to reset the device. Now I am afraid to install apps without filling it up again.

3. Bluetooth does no always connect back to my headset. sometime I have to turn on/off bluetooth on phone. Sometimes I have to reboot phone. One time I installed Pandora and bluetooth would not work until I figured out that removing Pandora would fix it.

4. Camera is no good.

5. WIFI cannot connect to an N router running in mixed mode (a,b,g,n). You must "dumb" down the router to b,g mode in order to connect the phone. This means hat other users who have no issues with N have to suffer the reduced speed of b,g.

6. No way to "EXIT" an app to reclaim RAM.

7. KB not as accurate as the iphone.

8. I have disabled HTC Sense and it is still slow. For example, often when I load favorites, nothing displays for about 3-4 seconds. This is not acceptable.

Overall, not a very tested or mature OS. I feel like I should not be starting from scratch like this. The folks at Android are guilty of using the consumer as a guinea pig. This is not acceptable. We are not reinventing the wheel, so why are obvious features missing?

HTC Desire :: Stocks App On Phone - Disable It?

Jun 6, 2010

New to android and this forum and wondered if you could help!

I've recently got a HTC Desire on Orange (which I love) and it has the Stocks app pre-loaded.
I know I cant remove this app but I can't seem to stop it updating itself every hour even though I will never use it.

I've been to: Accounts & Sync > Stocks > Account Settings ... and the 'Update Schedule' says 'Every Hour' underneath. However this option is greyed out so I cant reduce this or even stop it syncing at all.

I've also been to the 'Manage Application' settings and all I can do there is select 'Force Close'.

I think its annoying enough having an app put on my phone that I cant delete but to have it updating every hour and wasting my precious battery is even more frustrating.

I just wondered if anyone knew a way round this(or if I am missing something)?
Also, is this problem just an Orange thing as I know they meddle with the Desire more then most or do all Desire users have this problem?
