View 3 Replies View RelatedI am new to android development. I wanted to make a button on one of my activities that I can drag to slide my current activity page to the next activity page. The button will be in the center of the screen and I want to be able to press and drag it horizontally to one end of the screen while I am dragging my button I can see my current activity page moving. It is actually like when one slides on the home screen and can control the sliding depending on how far he slides his finger on the screen.

I may be able to work around the need if I can simply work out when the screen is on at any given time, in the service.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever I am using any app and press the home button, the home screen blacks out for a few secs and it takes around 10 sec to get all the icons back and before I can start using my phone again. I am using a non rooted mytouch 3g.
This problem does not happen if I exit an app by pressing the back button. It becomes very annoying at times.

I recently bought a HTC Desire which I've become exceedingly fond of.I've read (and been told by a colleague who owns a HTC Legend) that wifi should automatically turn off while the screen is off to conserve battery. I have the impression that I should be able to see the wifi icon turn on as I turn on the screen and unlock the phone. However, I haven't noticed that happening: The icon seems to just be on always.I have then tried observing my router's DHCP table when the the screen is off, but I haven't observed the entry for my phone disappearing (and I don't really know how much time has to pass before the table not showing my phone.Are there any settings that can cause this behaviour? What about programs? I current use smart monitor to log data usage as well as locale (using a SSID plugin and not the locale "location" condition). The only services I can see apart from those I think are OS services, are the ones for locale, smart monitor lite and the SSID plugin.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a customized view similar to Grid which will be used to hold a large amount of images. I'm using ImageButton to display the images, and I only want to load images onto the buttons once they are on the screen (and just display a static background image when they are not). The reason for it is that I'm fetching images from some back-end service and I only want to fetch them when the buttons are on the screen.To do that, I'd like to know if the widget is on the screen. Is it possible to detect if a widget like button is on/off screen? If not, any suggestions on how to achieve what I'm trying to do?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a motion listener to detect finger down, finger drag, and finger up. I start my action at finger down and finish my action at finger up. When the action is finished, I store it in a stack for allowing undo. My problem is that if I don't get a finger up event, I can't finish my action to add it to the stack for undo.
How can I detect that the user's finger has left the screen?
I tried using the emulator to see if getEdgeFlags() ever returned anything useful, and the result was always 0.
Basically, if a finger leaves the screen, then nothing is touching the screen anymore and I would like to detect that as a finger up event. How can I do this?
I've got an onTouchEvent boolean on a Surfaceview, I've got openGL objects drawn on the view and I'm wondering is there anyway to detect where on the screen the onTouch happened? e.g (x,y) co-ordinates.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any way where I can detect that the screen is about to turn off, so I can do some work *before* it happens?I need this to work around bug 3755: OpenGL apps sometimes crash when the screen gets turned off because they don't get surfaceDestroyed /surfaceCreated() events. Simply put, I need to shut down OpenGL before the phone has a chance to detach the GPU. The only events I seems to be getting when the screen turns off are onPause() and onWindowFocusChanged both of which turn up *after* the GPU detaches, by which time it's too late.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am designing a home screen widget. I ran this widget on a HTC Hero device, which has a screen of 320 pixels * 480 pixels with mdpi. It ran perfect on HTC Hero. The widget takes 3 cells * 2 cells space, i.e. 240 pixels * 200 pixels.Then I ran this widget on a Nexus One device, which has a screen of 480 pixels * 800 pixels, mdpi. Since Nexus One also is mdpi, so I though 240dip is equivalent to 240 pixels on Nexus One and 200dip is equivalent to 200 pixels on Nexus One, so the widget will not take 3 cells * 2 cells space on Nexus One device. To my surprise, when running on Nexus One device, the widget take exact 3 cells * 2 cells, about 360 pixels * 300 pixels, on Nexus One device.I am confused. The layout xml above specifies 240dip in width and 200dip in height for the widget, but why did it take 360 pixels * 300 pixels on Nexus One Device? What am I missing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently implementing a live wallpaper. This is also visible, when the device is locked. Now I want to show different content, when it is locked but can't find a way to detect this. PowerManager can only change the settings and the wallpaperEngine only gives me a general onVisibiltyChanged() method, which triggers every time you return to the home screen.Dos anybody know a way to detect if the device is locked?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Javascript/jQuery, how can I detect if the client device has a mouse?
I've got a site that slides up a little info panel when the user hovers their mouse over an item. I'm using jQuery.hoverIntent to detect the hover, but this obviously doesn't work on touchscreen devices like iPhone/iPad/Android. So on those devices I'd like to revert to tap to show the info panel.
Two things I'd like to be able to do with my incredible.First is reduce the number of homescreens. Seven is really pointless for me, it makes finding the right screen take a little longer and there's just not enough good quality widgets that I need to use. I could do better with 5 and possibly just 3.Second is that when I'm not on a homescreen and I hit the home button, I'd like it to go back to the LAST homescreen I was on, not the center one. And if I'm already on a homescreen, once again pull up the homescreen select menu, instead of going to the center homescreen. It's a waste of a button press to always go to that center screen when pressing the home button.
