I was wandering is there a way to show a stream or a pic to the screen directly even without the manifest? Or how do I load resources files without using the manifest on the Android platform?

I want to scale and display images which are dynamically loaded to a certain maximum size. The way I'm doing this is to set the layout_width and layout_height of my ImageView to the maximum dimensions and setting the scaleType to "fitCenter".
But here's the problem. This is inside a RelativeLayout and I want to show text directly under the image. In portrait mode, the text is way at the bottom (because of the height I have set). So I want the ImageView to scale down to the actual visible image size which is what it would seem like adjustViewBounds="true" should do.
Am I wrong in this assumption? Or is there a better way to do what I'm trying to do? Because I've been unsuccessful to this point!
well had the nexus for a few days and its now gone weird. i was scrolling in the market and it started jerking and selecting things different from where am pressing, then just returns to home screen. anyone had that?
View 6 Replies View RelatedNow I have dropped my Inc many times (I have the rubber case) and never had a problem. Well on Sunday I was coming home from the airport and dropped it perfectly about 3 feet directly on the screen on a rock and kablooey, it was shattered. I mean ruined to the point where you couldn't touch it without getting cut. However it actually still worked perfectly, but for obvious safety reasons I needed to get a new one. To make a long story short I got Verizon to send me a new one, and I couldn't be happier. Now they explained that I didn't receive a new one or a refurbished one, rather one that was returned immediately by someone.
It looks great, works perfectly and is running faster and smoother than my old one did. This is even after I did a backup from AppBrain to re-download over 130 apps. My only sadness is that I lost all my levels on Angry birds, and that I had to reset up my phone with all the little personalizations that I had before. Has anyone else had a similar experience with their replacement. My old phone (one that had received the update) It was constantly bogged down, and got better once I did a factory reset, however it still wasn't as smooth as my new one.
I have x10 mini 2.1 since I updated to 2.1 any long press on home screen or corner icons goes directly to edit either widgets or icons depending wich screen I have up.This is anoying because many times I press just a little too long and for example end up in the edit icons mode instead of opening messages like I wanted to. Is there anyway to get this as it was on 1.6? Long press didnt open edit, the only way to open edit was trough menu key.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have posted a message for this topic. And my requirement changed, seek some help here. What I want to do is to make my application run on the Home screen, like the widget show on the home screen. But I can decide how my application was shown on the screen, and the application will have to be in front of all the others ( including widget, I think this also prevent me using a widget). It is something like when I get a SMS, I will run my application and show something. the application will be show in the most front. And it can not removed by change the widget setting( unless remove the application). Can anyone help me on this? Or give me some advice. Shall I modify the android source code to achieve the target?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy question is kinda strange: is there a way to show incoming calls and SMS on my computer screen while my HTC Legend is connected to it by USB?
When I'm the university library I've to put the cellphone in silent mode and often I end up loosing calls&SMS while I'm working on my laptop.
So it would be very nice if there was a way to notify me with incoming calls (maybe on windows 7 task bar) while my cellphone is connected to the pc via USB.
Does anyone know a way to achieve this?
I know the code below opens the native Edit/Add contact screen
CODE:.........
Now i want this screen to be populated with some data in fields like name, phone number, address etc. I found that if i do something like newIntent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.NAME, "Some Name"); will show this screen with name "Some Name" being shown in the name field this is fine for me now i dont understand how will i fill the city, state and zip fields similarly.
I found the ContactsContract.Intents.Insert has a POSTAL attribute for address but there are no specific attributes for city, state and zip in ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.
Also i found that ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredPostal has the city, state and zip attributes but still i dont know how can i use this to prepopulate the Edit/Add contact screen with values of city, state and zip.
I know the code below opens the native Edit/Add contact screen
Intent newIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(newIntent, 1);

I want to show the direction on the screen that phone is facing.
For example:
0
|- []
|_
South --- North
In the above diagram the phone would display "North". Since the user (the stick with 0 for his head) is holding out the phone (the [] in the diagram) pointing north.
I found this example. I understand what it's doing except it seems to calculate yaw, pitch, roll, and inclination. What are those and how would I use them to simply find which way the phone is pointing?
Also this android documentation mentions X, Y, and Z axises but I don't see anywhere that says how those axises correspond to the phone? Is Z going from the bottom of the phone to the top?
Is it possible to display the log messages (which I print using android.util.Log) on screen in an Android application?
Or is there any other better method to just output lines on the screen? Something like System.out.println?

I've been block by this question for about a week. I tried to implement a simple application: show a image, when user touch on screen, I want to create a GLSurfaceView to cover the previous image. Then show some 3D effects on this GLSurfaceView.
The logic is quite simple. But I have a serious problem. When GLSurfaceView comes out, the whole screen become black, after 1-2 seconds, the GLSurfaceView with texture shows up. Is there any way to make this smoothly? The 1-2 second black screen is really a bad user experience.
I have an Android TextView where the view itself is limited to four lines.If the text exceeds this limit I want the end of the view to end with something like.<-- to notify that there is more text here so you can click and open in full screen for example.Not just suddenly stop in the middle of a sentence. Is there a quick fix for this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having issue while showing a WebView in an activity in the middle of the screen. I have an activity and I want to show a webview in the center of screen. My activity is transparent so background activity will be visible. Whenever I try to create a webview and add it to activity using setContentView(webview) it always shows the view on the top left corner of the screen. Is their a way to workaround this?I am trying to do this via pure code only.
Here is my code.
CODE:....................
I have setup Eclipse classics, download all the APis using the application managers, etc. The AVD only shows a blank screen with "android" text at the center. I even tried download a tic tac toe program. The AVD shows the same result.
For the AVD device, I've selected, I went about as this:
1) click on the "new" button in Eclipse-> Android Virtual Device Manager
2) I entered AVD Name, choose Nexus 7 as device.
3) The Target is Google APIs, Google API 11
4) The rest of the options are default.
Upon launch, the title shows 5554:myavd with android text in the middle.
I have tried other AVD like Nexus One and target to be Android 4.2, but it showed same result.
There is errors on the android emulator dialog.
It says could not
Failed to create Context 0x3005
and could not get wglGetExtionsStringARB
So now that it's out and taking up 22 megs on my phone. What things use it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to show a ScrollView with a button anchored to bottom of screen. This is coded programmatically (without using XML layout for now). The trouble is when the ScrollView has many items (requiring scrolling), it prevents the button at the bottom from showing. The bottom button is sort of pushed off the screen. Look at the code below. I have a TODO which mentions a workaround to specify the exact pixel height of the ScrollView, but this is not a good solution. If you change the for loop to add only 2 buttons, then the bottom button will show. So how do I make the ScrollView show a scrolling list, with the bottom button in view, and without specifying an exact size of the ScrollView? I've seen some discussions here:

It seems when screen orientation changes, the activity's onCreate() method is called. In my onCreate() method, I have an AlertDialog which pops up when the activity is called. The problem is when I switch the screen sideways, the popup is displayed again. How can I avoid this?
