I'm currently trying to create skins for my app, and the simplest way to do it, it seems is by creating Themes for each skin.I'm getting confused with how to use a specified item which points to a declared color from my Theme to a particular shape I create via xml.

how to create Android apps so I recently installed Eclipse and Android SDK. I made a new AVD (2.3.3) and everything worked fine for a while but now I get the following error messages when I try to run my application (which is a simple "Hello World" program):
Code:
Emulator] NAND: nand_dev_load_disk_state, restore failed: size required (3546398242485400641) exceeds device limit (69206016)
Emulator] Unknown savevm section type 114
HelloTest] emulator-5554 disconnected! Cancelling 'ema.test.HelloTestActivity activity launch'!
I have also tried deleting the AVD from the AVD manager but it says the emulator is running and therefore unable to delete it.
These problems persists even though I've restarted my computer several times.
I'm on Ubuntu 11.04
Can't they make skins that r clean. Ie just one letter per button, looks sloppy with micro icons above letters. Some of the xtreme themes overcome this by using black backgrounds, but the letter colors are red or pink.what skin u guys using?
View 1 Replies View Relatedthere's one app who is a big offender here I think anyone who uses it will know which one I mean its in the top paid apps - all the skins appear in the app drawer.And yet I can sort of understand why he's done it because you have a choice of either including these lines in AndroidManifest.xml or not.If you do, app can be launched and is in app drawer. If you don't, app can't be launched and is not in app drawer.What would be most useful is the inbetween, i.e. app can be launched and is not in app drawer. I've played around with all variations in xml file and nothing achieves this behavior.Publishers want skin packs to be launchable, so that when people download them wondering what they are, they can include some info directing you to a website or better still, straight to the main product in the market. But its inconsiderate to customers to fill up their app drawers with stuff that is just skin packs / themes. I don't think there is a solution to this, but I think its an issue that Android need to address.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe idea is to allow users to download a skin packet from the android market and be able to change the skin via the main application.I assume this skin pack would contain only the layouts and res names that I would want to overwrite from the main application.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHow to make custom AVD skins by editing the layout file and associated .png files in the android-sdk-windowsplatformsandroid-nnnskins folders. The syntax of the layout file is simple and pretty self-explanatory but I'm curious about it ...
Is it meant to be hand-edited or is it generated from some tool or utility I should be using?
Any idea why they used this curly-brace syntax instead of something standard like XML?
I'm looking for a clock widget/skins pack. Something similar to Beautiful Widgets, without the weather integration, would be perfect.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to use a custom skin for my Datepickers and Timepickers. Changing the background in XML doesn't do the trick (it changes the background to the set, not each of its buttons). The API is painfully short and has nothing about appearance ( http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/DatePicker.html ). Is it possible to use a custom skin for the buttons of Datepickers and Timepickers?

I want to create a dock shortcut that takes me to a menu populated with different apps to choose from (for instance a games menu). I know how to create a widget that will do this with Tasker, and I suspect that LP's shortcut maker will do it, but I've yet to find a good tutorial on how to use it if you're not already a dev.

I would like to be able to create multiple apps with this (same logic but different songs) and possibly install more than one song on a device. But now when I try to install a second version it says that the app is already installed, even if I refactor and change the name of the app. What is the proper way to do this?

I'd like to push that button and then maybe see a games folder at the top and a media folder for camera apps and media players. Maybe a news/reference folder for my dictionaries, reference and news apps. The rest of the stuff I'd like to just leave there open and accessible.

Does anyone know where we can buy Gel/rubber skins or some sort of cases that were actually made for the Droid?I've been looking everywhere. Usually Walmart (where i got my phone) sell the accessories for the phones they sell, but they dont for the droid.I really would like a working gel skin for it.but it says it wont ship til the 16th, and i'd rather get it much sooner.Im having such a hard time finding any accessories. AH! Nothing local has them.the official Motorola droid site seems broken. Shows gel's and stuff for the phone, but cant ever find them on the store page after you click the image.

View 16 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to create folders and put apps in those folders on an Incredible?
I'm an android newbie, and I would like to create some folders-games, weather, maps, etc. and put corresponding apps in those folders. I would like to place those folders on my homescreen.

I plan to create a runtime for hosting (inner) JavaScript apps using Cordova.
1. There should be a host app acting as the runtime. In this Host-App, it should able to load JS/Html Apps dynamically. Same goes for removing.
2. Also, the inner JS/Html Apps should be able to communicate with each other.
Important is
- that the loaded JS/Html should call native functions like contact list (thats why Cordova should be used)
- and the JS/Html is not necessarily on the device when the apk is created. Hence, it should be able to download the sources and show them in the native app.
I have an Android 4.4.2 KitKat and I want to sort apps by type (tools, game, social ...) in apps drawer.
Is there any applications that can allow to create a sort by type ? I don't want to install new launcher like Go launcher but just mods or apks that can I use with my default launcher.
Some background info: I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, so no SD-Card. Rooted, running Paranormal Android.
So what started bugging me lately is the fact that android just places folders created by apps in my main storage, which ironically is called /sdcard/.
Is there a way to create a folder, for instance: ProgramFiles, and make android place all folders made by apps in that folder? That way only my Music, Movies folder etc would stay in the main storage.
I just ordered two new Motorola Droid's on sunday, they're due to get here on wednesday so i've been killing time looking at accessories. Just had a couple of quick questions. Keep in mind we're looking for the *gel* cases for the droid.I know that OEM skins/cases will cost more than the bargain skins/cases on ebay I'm guessing that some of the gel cases that cost more have had some more thought put into them and are probably higher quality (get what you pay for maybe?). I'm basically looking for personal recommendations for a brand or a website that sells GOOD QUALITY gel cases.I'm trying to avoid having to return something because it turns out that the gel case covers up the flash, the keys on the slide out keyboard, or wont allow the phone to be used in the car dock.. That kind of thing. Anyone have any success stories they can share?
