I have a ListActivity with an array adapter declared like arrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String> (this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_checked); This shows a bunch of rows with checkmarks on the far right. Can you tell me how to get a reference to those checkmarks or how to check/uncheck them?

I am on my first Android application and I am on a timeline so details and examples will be useful since my knowledge is still minimal. I want my first screen to present the user with a list of activities to choose from. In my situation it is a recipe app where the user first chooses the type of food, such as, Beef, Chicken, or Pork. I want the application to launch an activity depending on the list item that the user clicked on. I am not sure if I should use a list view, a text view, a scroll view, a list activity, an activity group...
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen views with different type have same id and screen orientation changes,
either java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.AbsSavedState$1 or java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State will occur. (depends on the view's order)
Because View.dispatchRestoreInstanceState() checks id only.
You may wonder why anyone would make views with different type to have same id.
But it can happen when you use tab activity.
Imagine you have tab activity with two children activity.
Tab1 is ListActivity and Tab2 is ExpandableListActivity.
Both activity have id of "@android:id/list" but the type of view is different.
This means we cannot use ListActivity & ExpandableListActivit at the same in one tab activity.
I currently have a tab layout with 2 tabs, one tab with a list view and one with the option make strings so I can add them in the list view. Both tabs have their own activity because this made the code much more structured, and I dont have to repeat my self later.
Lets say im in the tab that offer me to create an string, and i press the update list button, how do I update the list view without startActivity()? If i use startActivity(), it starts List.java, and instead of displaying the list in the list view tab, it takes full screen, which defies the purpose of the tab view. In other words, the startActivity() steals the focus from the tab view of the list, and sends it fulscreen.
I want to update the activity in my list view tab, without starting a new activity that goes to fullscreen, and doesnt update the one in the tab.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a simple question. I am trying to design a simple Android app, which based on keywords searches something and shows a listing view of results. Currently it merely searches SMSes in the cellphone.Here are some of the things I am faced with: I have a simple first page with a textbox and a submit button. It's rendered by "Activity" inherited class call SMS Finder.once I have the results present with me, I want them to be binded to a list view. Showing preview text to limited characters, say 20 chars. Clicking on the same should "ideally" open the inbox (or outbox or whatever) and open the SMS, however that meant I cannot come back to my app easily. So I would rather open the whole SMS in my own app. So clicking on the app should open the SMS in a new screen with complete message, sender info etc. Few questions here, For generic Android phone apps, what are the best practices to make UI as compliant to as many phones? Like what kind of views should I use?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a realtively complicated listview in my application, with data fetched from the internet and so on. What is the best practice to do to preload as much as possible of the ListView, such that it appears immediately on the screen?
For example, the standard SMS/MMS app of android shows a white screen with a spinning loader and "Loading..." before a conversation is shown. I can't really find this in the Android source code, but I guess this is an extra loading Activity doing some caching and handing over to the conversation Activity using finish(), so that no screen change animation is shown.
How can I preload or cache ListView items? Is it even possible to do that?
I have a list activity in my application. i have tried to make it so that when a list item is selected to show the selection the background of the view should change. but now when i select one item, the item does get selected but the back ground of random listitems changes at the same time, but the selection is still correct
CODE:...........................
When I run my app, it works fine but if I switch back to home or another application, I want to go back to my app quickly by using the recent activity list (on my phone this is done by holding down the home button). For whatever reason, I never see my application in this list of apps. All other apps when they are running or have just recently been closed show up ( the menu shows 6 icons for the recent apps). Why doesn't my app show up on this list? Is this something you need to do programmatically?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to include one button inside each row in a List Activity. When pressing one of these buttons it will be disabled and will perform a heavy task in the background (in a different thread to avoid screen blocking). After the action is completed the button will be enabled again and the row updated with some results obtained from that "heavy operation". Im filling my List with a custom SimpleCursorAdapter, its getView method calls super.getView and in the view (row) returned I access its button through findViewById and set my click listener (to disable it, and launch the heavy task in the background). Once this heavy task is finished I need a reference to this row view to find the button and re- enable it. SimpleCursorAdapterīs super.getView() reuses row views shown on screen to avoid creating many different rows instances, so when my "heavy task" is finished the row view reference i need to reenable its button may have been reused in a different row, so in the end I am modifying a button in a different row! I have tried different solutions, for example giving different ID to each row view (useless because it gets overwritten when the row view is reused) Obviously creating a different row instance for each row whether its shown on screen or not isnt the best solution.

I want to pass points to another Activity and retrieve the data in that activity. How do I do it? I know I have to use the parcelable but I searched, but could not find a way to pass ArrayLists.
For now i have a list, using extends listactivity, and now i want to add mapview on the same activity using framelayout probably,
but if i want to use the mapview, the activity must extends mapactivity,
one must extends mapactivity,the other must extends list activity,
if it possible to do that?

I'm trying to get the scroll position on a ListActivity. Here is what I'm trying to do: I have a list activity that is populated from an XML file. Another thread downloads all pictures so the user can see the list while the thread is still downloading the files.
What I'm trying to do is when the thread finishes getting all pics it reads the listview scroll position, refresh the listview and scroll to that position again.
ListView main = getListView(); <-- not sure if I'm really getting the ListView this way. int scY = main.getScrollY(); Log.d("Scroll", scY + " "); <--- this is printing zero even when at the moment I run this I already scrolled the list. setListAdapter(listadapter); main.scrollTo(0, scY);
I want to display the same options menu on all of my application's activities. I created a generic Activity that implements the menu, and all my further activies extend it. The problem: when I need to extend other specific activities, like ListActivity and MapActivity, I can't figure out how to extend the generic activity and add the List or Map behaviour to the new class. To deal with the issue I had to create three different generic activities, each extending Activity, ListActivity and MapActivity.I've tried creating an abstract activity but it doesn't work, I would need to extend two classes at the same time. I could try interfaces but since I can't implement methods, I would have to paste the menu implementation all over the second-level classes, right?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need some help using ListActivity. The API provides "onListItemClick" which you can override and is called when user selects an item in the list.
However I want the same type of functionality when an item in the list is selected. So as soon as user highlights something in the list I want my application to do something (like play a preview). I dont want to wait for user to select the button.
I would like to have my list activity to display 2 items(title, content) in a single row. I have almost 10 rows to display like that. And I want the width of the columns to be equally spread out.
