I am essentially using a listview but am looking at providing a bookmark functionality. I am thinking that I should store the item attributes in a file when bookmarked and retrieve when required to populate a bookmark listview.
I was wondering if there is a de facto standard used in achieving this or do I follow just the "writing into a file" and "reading from a file" when necessary style?

My question is simple really, and I'm sure Ive read a solution somewhere before, but here goes... On the bookmarks swipe gesture, which brings up your bookmarks, how do I make my Dolphin HD bookmarks show, instead of the generic browsers??? In other words, can I import bookmarks from Dolphin to the LPP bookmarks?
View 2 Replies View RelatedLooks like the bookmarks within the Bookmarks Widget are posted in the order that you surf and are NOT subject to any type of sorting. However the bookmarks within the Bookmarks Application launched from the browser's menu are sortable. Is there any way to make these two independent bookmarks list sync with one another. I know there's an application out there to manually sort the widget's bookmarks but I want them sync and match.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy application needs to intensively manipulate (read-write) on some structured text data.The size of the data is significant 1Mb. And there is initial data available for the user to start with.My idea is to put this data as a file in the .apk. Then, on initial application launch to read this data and populate Android SQLite database with it. Then just work with this database. But after the database is populated the data file is no longer needed. And I'd like to remove it to free some memory. Alternate approach is to work with this data file instead of SQLite database. But I assume SQLite would work a magnitude faster then i/o on my data file..

I want to create an app widget that could take up a different number of "cells" on the home screen, but I don't think that the app widget framework easily supports this. I know that an app widget can have a configuration screen, and I'd like the user to be able select a sort of small, medium, or large size for the widget as part of my configuration activity. Unfortunately, I don't think that this is possible, correct? Based on the minWidth and minHeight properties, the Launcher app will assign a number of cells that I can't configure at run time.
For instance, if I want a weather widget that has a current, hourly and weekly format that take up 1, 2, and 4 cells respectively, I can't do this at run time. Instead, I believe my only option is to export 3 different widgets and have them all listed in the widget picker dialog as something like "Weather - current conditions", "Weather - hourly forcast", and "Weather - week long forcast".
I am trying to develop a Android Google Map application, which is basically Gmap with my own marker geo layer. Since android.com is banned in China, I have to search support from Google user groups. I have no idea which groups I should call for help, android group or google map group. Anyway here is my questions:
I am working on Android SDk1.5. I want to reproduce the floating buttons presented in android Google map, which stands for three buttons: ZoomControl (left), FocusChange (middle), and ListControl (right). (Pls check ref1. ) I checked some open source projects, if designer can place these controls in the layout.xml with relative layout, to place them over (on the top of) the mapview. It may solve some problem, however in the SDK1.5' add-on gmap jar, the getZoomControl is discarded. I can only setBuiltInZoomControl(true) to enable the builtin zoomcontrol. By default, the "BuiltIn" Zoom Control is placed at Bottom/Center. (Pls check ref 2.) I have no idea how to relocate the "BuiltIn" Zoom Control to the left as native GMAP does.
So: How to relocate the BuiltIn Zoom Control ? How to add addtional custom control (buttons/overlays) with BuiltInZoomControl ? What functions should be overriden for the detail implementaiton, Such as synhcorization with the visibility? I am appreciated if the answer can be offered with code snippet or references to any internet site.

I've got a query, (I'm using rawQuery())
SELECT * FROM <table>
I'm then storing what it returns using a cursor. From their what I want to do is, start at the first row so.. cursor.moveToFirst() then take each column , column by column and store its particular value in a variable. I then want to move onto the next row and do the same. So I guess my question is How would I get cursor to deal with multiple columns?
I am learning how to program on Android phone. However I am unsure how to make my application work for the different screen sizes and resolutions.
I read the tutorial on the android site and still unsure how to do it.
First I know there are different files so could make a layout for each of the sizes but my problem is most of the screen needs to be dynamically created so there would not be much to put in these files.
So I am not sure how to android to re size dynamic controls based on the screen size.
I have also read it is bad practice to make controls in anything but the xml file as it separates view logic and programming logic. However they never talk about if you need to make these controls dynamically what you should do.
So is there some other way to do it that is considered good practice?

To your question: It's dynamic because
the buttons in my example grow and
shrink depending on one of the 3
possibles sizes, because they use
scaled pixel (You probably know that
you don't have to deal with screen
sizes itself). So a scaled pixel
compared to a real a pixel has a size
of 0.75px, 1.0px or 1.5px. Android
automatically and dynamically adjusts
it to the actual size. So you don't
have to care about this in your code.
So if I use scaled pixels then I don't have to worry about different screen sizes?
At the moment I don't know an example
except in games where you have to deal
with "real" pixel. But if you want use
it, multiply it with the value of the
current density. This is your "ratio".
I don't have the example with the ball
anymore but I have another which uses
the same technics. You can run it on
different screen sizes and you will
see that the buttons will always fit
into the layout. You could use the
same technics for your intents. In
this example you can scroll with the
"Scrn" buttons from one view to
another of 4 views. (At the moment
they all have a black background so
you don't see that they are different
views). The "Enter" button exits the
test. It's an Eclipse project. You can
download
So if I want to deal with ratio then I use real pixels and not scaled pixels? What advantage does this give me?
will scaled pixels work with changing from portrait to landscape( ie will it fill up the new found space)?
Finally should I make the controls now through code or is there another way? As I said I am getting data from a webservice that must look like this
checkbox label label
It can be one record or 10,000 records I don't know so these have to be appended to something that is like a window panel( the controls in there get a scroll bar).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI see that people here have walked out of mobile phone stores with some great bargains. I've been living off my wife's old contract phones for years and I always hated going into stores to look at phone as sales people always tried to sell me stuff I didn't want / need. I've now decided it's time to invest in a Desire with a contract (T-Mobile). Their �10 a month for 100 mins & txt (phone �164) is tempting but I probably prefer 600 mins & unlimited text for �21.35 (after redemption) from buymobilephones.net How's the best way to approach a sales person in a store bearing in mind that I'm a new customer? Are they fairly flexible when it comes to discussing contracts? I just fancy walking in and asking if they can match a certain contract deal on the internet!?

View 5 Replies View RelatedFirst of all, I'm a very happy Eris user. I've had the phone since January and have just decided to "put up with" the fact the vibration is too weak. But its starting to get rediculous. I miss calls, texts and emails constantly with this phone! And just yesterday, my Boss actually made a comment to me about it (something like "you need to start answering you damn phone!"). I had a BB for 5 years leading up to my getting the Eris in January and rarely missed a call or message.
I have Smart Vibrate loaded and have programmed distinct patterns, but it's not helping. If somebody doesn't have a good idea or remedy for this, I might be forced to go back to BB.
I've read posts like this before and everybody just seems to deal with this, but please tell me somebody has a trick they can share
