Android : How To Change Size / Color Of Phone Buttons?
Sep 4, 2009
I would like to know the way to make a user interface for Android for people that have low vision. The idea is to make a UI with the following features: 1- Uses very very big buttons. 2 -Uses very big font size. 3- Te colors to use are basically black and white (for more contrast). 4- The icons in this UI are not relevant. 5- We must sacrifice the number of chars that we can show in the screen to get bigger labels and buttons. 6- A simple zoom system for the images should be a great idea. 7- We can use the camera of the phone to get a magnifying glass. I'm member of a blind people association in Spain and we think that this should be a great idea for begining a new low-vision-user- interface that is not aviable in the market for the new mobile phones. This will help many people that uses movile phones but have many difficulties to work with them.

How could I be able to change text color in buttons? From the image, I tried changing the boxed text from '<item name="textColor">@color/primary_text_holo_light</item>', and creating my own drawable xml file to link it with that. Color change seems successful, but it also affects other holo white buttons as well (see image). I don't want it to happen, for it renders those buttons unreadable.

Can I change the background color of a Menu item in Android? Please let me know if anyone have any solution to this. The last option will be obviously to customize it but is there any way for changing the text color without customizing it.

I'm using the agenda widget on my desire. On the example when choosing widgets it shows different color tabs on the entries. When I enter events I cannot see a way of changing the color from the standard sky blue I always get. Changing the color tab for business and personal etc etc would be very useful.

Is there a way to change the color scheme in the phone app, which also looks like the system default color scheme of white text on black background?Walking outside in bright sunlight looking at white text on black background is nearly impossible to see. Black text on white would be much better.

I have a full screen dialog that has a relative layout that contains a TableLayout. Whenever the soft keyboard is displayed on the screen, it shrinks these buttons. Instead of filling the bottom of the screen, they only fill a third of it. How can I keep the size of the buttons the same similar to the Contact app?

I am using three buttons along with the list view.These three buttons are added to the layout using the TableLayout and TableRow.The first button takes more space on content, so the other two becomes smaller in size than first one. When the application runs, it doesn't even show the two other buttons.How can I make the size of three buttons equal and display all of them when application runs?Give me some example please.

I want to buttons of different colors, but I want to do so while using the default button background resource in order to preserve the onfocus and onclick states. This is because I want to use the default highlight color of the OS for my app, which is NOT always orange (HTC Sense makes it green).I found that adding a color filter to the button's background drawable works great (in this case, blue).

I designed the user interface of my app on the emulator and then I installed it on the Nexus one. For some reason the text boxes, labels buttons etc. have shrink in size. It looks as if the view has been zoomed out on the phone. If I arrange it correctly on the phone the objects don't fit on the emulator. Has anyone faced this? Is there some setting to have consistency between the look of the emulator and Nexus One.

IŽm working on the UI of my first app and IŽd like it to work on as many different devices as possible. IŽve read on the net about AndroidŽs rule not to resize bitmaps on views (background, buttons, etc), is it true? Does android rescale skinned views sizes the same way it resizes the default ones? Also, if not, how can I handle the more than 5 display sizes using a background image and skinned buttons and scrollers (horizontal bar)?

I'm trying to develop a very specific app for my Dell Streak. I want the entire app to run landscape. The Streak has a tilt function that switches the whole OS to a landscape 800x480.
So I want to make an ADT to test in that uses an 800x480 display, but whenever I set the size I get no buttons. The Streak has a Home, Menu and Back button aswell as volume/mute and power, and I need to use some of them for my application.
I'm not worried about the tilting messing up my application. Not yet, anyway. Just need the test environment the right size and with buttons.

now that we have a beautiful custom battery icon (thanks again Kelmar!) I would like to try to do some more customizations. My Hero is SO close to what I like now, only need one more change to make it perfect. I'd like to figure out how to change all of the green highlighting to blue on the Hero. (Like on the ZenRom) Things like: when you press a button (say the call button, as an example) or icon or widget, and things like the progress bar in the browser... also things like the unread mail indicator, and the rating stars in the market...etc. Kelmar and I have been reading on XDA, and have tried many things, and we are getting nowhere. Everything seems to lead to a very long tedious process. It would seem to us that some of this might be able to be easily changed in one file, to make the change throughout the rom, but we could be wrong. We wonder if anyone here could help out with how to do this.

The iPhone gives the app the ability to change the notification bar's color so you can have it match your app's design without having to hide it completely.Is there a way to change the notification bar color in Android?I'm looking to have it force black with white text to be less visually present while using the app, but still there.
