Update: According to posters below it doesn't work on their fascinate. You can control the screen brightness, by swiping right or left, up where the notification bar is. if it doesn't work, try turning off power saving mode. settings>sound and display>power saving mode uncheck

But there are a lack of themes for exdialer and also it lacks contacts export and import, ability to set specific ringtone for one contact, etc. So what I wanna know is there any other dialer with the swipe gestures? Or is there anyway to bring it to the MIUI dialer?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm finding that I'm using the back button A LOT whether browsing the web or just navigating the OS. It kind of sucks because the buttons on the droid x are well, really small, and sometimes hard to press because they are so narrow and flimsy feeling. And depending on how you are holding the phone, it could be a good bit of distance for your thumb to travel or I'm finding myself having to reposition the phone in my hands just to reach the back button, which you seem to need very frequently.
Anyone know of any kind of back 'swipe' implementation ? Like some software you can install that makes it if you swipe left to right on maybe the top bar it goes back?
How can I detect in a ListView that someone swiped to the left or the right?

View 4 Replies View RelatedWebView can scroll on both axis. That makes it hard to integrate with the 1.6 gestures. At the same time a WebView is often used as the main and huge content area, so either there is a way to work with gestures properly or gestures can't be used in lots of places.
Did anybody do this and has recommendations on how to do that properly?
The main problem I see is that a scrolling in any direction can be interpreted as a gestures and which keeps the user from scrolling. And because this is an issue for any direction I can't workaround the problem with only using horizontal or vertical gestures.
The best solution I found so far is canceling the gesture when no new onGesture events occur for 200ms. And with the finger still on the screen the user can then scroll. But that sounds better than it is, as scrolling often requires to pull up the finger again, when the end of the screen is reached, and put it down again on the opposite side, to keep on scrolling. But then the next touch down needs to wait the delay again, which is not very intuitive and as it can lead to a gesture being executed this is even less cool.
I found a video on youtube where u can have the dpad in the bottom left corner when your holding your evo horizontal. Can I move the dpad from the top left to the bottom left? if so how?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to scroll the ListView up/down actions by pressing a button, instead of using finger gesture. It looks like the super class AbsListView.onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) handles all the scrolling up/down motion and animation. So if I want to scroll the list by pressing a button, I don't really have a MotionEvent to pass onto onTouchEvent method for it to work. I tried ListView.scrollTo(x,y), it kind of works but the hidden part of the ListView is not rendered when shown on the screen. I am trying to re-draw the list by using: ListView.invalidate(), ListView.invalidateViews(), list.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a love-hate relationship with my G1, with the inability to remap keys at the top of the list. I've looked high and low for information, going so far as to try to decipher pages like this:http://www.kandroid.org /android_pdk/keymaps_keyboard_input.html and even reading the android platform code on github. I don't see things like page_up and page_down defined in the android keymappings. And I suspect that the original scancodes are being assigned to touch gestures.Since the number keys don't have a third component could an enterprising developer map to the unused caps for missing keys? Not that it would be all that useful at this point but it would give someone a hook to build on. Or if that isn't possible, how about a virtual floating task bar kind of thing (maybe mostly transparent overlay?) that maps gestures like the swipe up/swipe down and more traditional arrows and enter type keys for the trackball? This isn't entirely a nit-picky kind of request. I have a medical condition that in the winter makes my fingertips extremely painful and the trackball hurts. I'm guessing that there weren't many arthritis sufferers on the Android development team, either. You would think that the touch screen should make things easier, not harder. Even my old, old Omnigo and HP100LX had utilities to remap keys, so it seems odd that there isn't some kind of app that could be developed. I think if I had enough time (which I don't) I might be able to eventually puzzle out a crude version of the task bar thing but I'd much rather pay a couple of dollars in the market.

I saw a project on google code that lets people simulate the accelerometer, but none of Gestures.
I would like to define an ImageView in Xml, and then listen to gestures which occur only on that ImageView. But, it appears that the constructor for GestureDector requires an Activity as a parameter, and then responds to gesture events on all components in that Activity. Is there any way to limit this such that events are only generated for gestures upon the pre-defined ImageView?

I woke up today, unplugged my phone and didn't touch it for an hour. Battery Left says I have 70 percent left but the battery meter in the status bar showed full. I uninstalled battery left and installed Battstatt and it shows 90 percent (2 hours later). Anyone else have problems with battery left? I hope this fixes my battery problem.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have noticed in the android gesture examples, that it reads the gestures from the res/raw folder. it would be a great thing for my application to include a 'getting started' list of gestures. that way a user can use the app without having to train it for their own personal gestures. i would even expect that the majority of users would be happy to use a default set of gestures.however, i cannot figure out how to generate that initial set of gestures that i would include in the res/raw folder of my application.anyone have ideas of how to create this file or where to look for more info?

The idea is a kind of tabbing behaviour but the user can swipe though the screens. I created a gallery, created a GalleryAdapter that extends from BaseAdapter and in the getItem() method I try to return the complex view..
