View 1 Replies1. I built SDK Android on Ubuntu OS completely. But this SDK only for eclipse on Ubuntu OS. I want to create SDK for Window XP. How can I do that? Does it like how to built SDK Android on Ubuntu OS?
2. I download Apps in Android source code such as: Email, Calendar, Music, Setting,... but when I import them into eclipse, it have some errors: project Calendar requires "import android.provider.Calendar;", "import android.provider.Calendar.Events;",... So where can I download "android.provider.calendar", "android.provider.calendar.Events"... from? Or how can I set up environment?
I just started playing around with Launcher Pro and ADW this morning. Is there a guide to customize them with different widgets and such? I like the look better than SENSE, but I don't know where to DL widgets and whatnot.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the Android 2.2 source code and try to build it. When I executed the make command, I got an error here like this build/core/java.mk:20: *** frameworks/ex/common: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. Then I changed the frameworks/ex/common/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7. Next place, build/core/java.mk:20: *** external/jsr305: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. I changed the external/jsr305/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7
Last one, build/core/java.mk:20: *** external/guava: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. I changed the external/guava/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7
By these changes the code started the compilation.
1. Why the error occured?
2. Changes which I did is correct or not?
I am currently a Pre owner and new to Android Forums, and really loving the specs on this phone. One thing I really loved about the Pre was able to customize the phone with different themes, putting homebrew apps on the phone, and really patching it to fit my needs.
My questions is Will the EVO have these options that I can do to this phone as I could with the Pre? I really do not know much about Android or the HTC.
Also if someone could explain to me how I can customize the phone, becaues right now minehas the stock background and format and I would like to make it look nice. Not sure how to do it though.
I would also like to know all this deal about rooting and whatnot. I read some stuff that mentioned rooting and kernels and stuff and I really don't know what it is. I would like to know and try it once I get comfortable. Also what are roms?
I'm in the UK but notice it's got an American keyboard layout (from a shifted symbols point of view).

This has probably been asked before but I can't find anything in searches. Is there an app that allows you to customize the notification light on the X?

since i'm not planning to use the final "product" as a phone, i asked my self if it is possible to exclude applications like the phone/dialer-app from the kernel build-process (any config parameter probably?)=
The first one I'm looking for is how to customize the notification bar and menu once the phone is rooted. The second is a tutorial on how to replace the recovery console on the to nandroid etc. Which recovery console is the best?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working on nifty enhancements to an Android app and I've cloned its source from android.git.kernel.org. How does one deal with imports not found, for example:
import android.content.entity*
import android.os.ServiceManager
import com.google.android.collect.*
import com.android.internal.*
etc. This is with a checkout of tag Android-2.1_r1 Android2.1-update1 with ADK 0.9.7.v20100514. I'm not seeing them in the platform source - maybe I'm looking the wrong way? I spose the answer is a library or something, but it's my first time in.
Is it possible to customize one of your already custom ringtone tones that you have selected for the droid eris? what i mean is, can i select which part of the song i want to play when someone calls me? i just purchased a song off of amazon and applied it as my ringtone. you could do this with the iphone and i was wondering if you could do this with the eris as well.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI can successfully customize folder icons on a removable Flash Disk using Desktop.ini file and a separate icon file. But I am unable to do the same thing on folders on the connected phone device that, for all I know, is similar to a removable device. The phone is a Samsung Droid Charge. When I copy the Desktop.ini and the folder containing the icon file from the pc to the memory card, nothing happens. The icons for the folders still have the same default appearance. Don't know how many people care to have custom icons but it is a nice thing to have when you are always trying to identify a few folders from many.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm interesting in buying a Samsung Galaxy but first I'd like to know if all Android apps are phone model independent? I know that all the cool custom ROM stuff from XDA Devs is HTC only but apps are not? Mostly, I mean Open Home, Unlock 2.0 and Better Keyboard with their skins.
Same question goes about widgets.
I don't like the facebook app or the "friend stream" on my htc desire as i have a lot of friends and not much info is displayed, are there any other good widgets/apps for facebook?
or is there another way to get full facebook without having to use the Internet browser every time?
Dose anyone have any thoughts about the build quality of this phone? I love the specs of this phone, but I am worried that it will fell to much plastic? More than the iphone 3g/s? It's nice that this phone is so light, but I personal think that that can contribute to a poor build quality. Every time I play with the HTC desire, I always is amassed how solid it feels.

I see many apps that will search though all the current installed apps, for sorting, or organizing, but then it would be good to export this list to e-mail or Google Docs, etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android application development and I'm currently experimenting with various UI ideas. In the image below, you can see a vertically scrolling list of horizontally scrolling galleries (and also textviews as you can see). I'm also doing some matrix and camera transformations which I will come to in a minute.
For the background of the list elements, I use green. Blue is the background of the galleries, and red is the background for the images. These are just for my benefit of learning.
The galleries being used are extended classes where I overrode the drawChild method to perform a canvas scale operation in order for the image closest to the center (width) to be larger than the others. The list view going vertically, I overrode the drawChild method and used the camera rotations from lack of depth dimension in the canvas functionality. The items in the list are scaled down and rotated relative to their position's proximity to the center (height).............
