Android : IPhone / Droid Swipe Detection For Mobile Browser
Jun 30, 2010
Is it possible to detect that the viewport is being dragged by a touch event?
Using the following code I am able to get the position of where the finger touched the screen, what node started the event and where it was dragged to. Which solves one of the problems but I would really like to detect when the user has dragged the page/window/viewport down.
To attempt to be more clear as to what I am trying to do: I would like simulate the refresh activity in Tweetie 2/Twitter for iPhone but in HTML5 and JavaScript. Code....

Wondering here if there is a way I could trigger an event, so that any library listening for these events (e.g. jQTouch, Sencha touch, iUI, ... ).
If I could extend or use jQuery for such task e.g. $(...).trigger('event') that would be great to know.
Usage example:
I need to debug a few web apps by simulating multi touch with my mouse. This seems a little complicated, so if I could trigger the multi-touch events using Javascript I could therefore test the app more efficiently.

I have built a website for mobile webkit browsers, there is an interval update to refresh data. But it turns out that the pooling refresh will stop at some time after run for a while (some minutes or hours, different by each time).I thought there may be something error occurred in my refresh data functions, but it works well in my laptop browser. I also tried to listen window.onerror event, but webkit browser seems do not support that event. What else can I do?And I am also doubting is there any problem with setTimeout and setInterval functions in mobile webkit browser?

I'm trying to figure out how to implement a basic augmented reality application that uses a piece of (real) paper to navigate (simple rotate, zoom) a virtual 3d or pseudo-3d space. The example implementation that comes to mind is the Harry Potter 3D Augmented Reality ad, where you can take a piece of paper, point it at your web cam (at the right angle/distance), and 3d buildings and such would pop up (on your screen). You can then turn the paper around to rotate the building, or even zoom in. The example above is done using Shock wave. I'm wondering if there are better web-friendly plugin's, such as Flash (or even HTML5, if web cam integration works?) that might be able to do the same? Also, are there ways to optimize grid detection, so that the effect is less "lossy" - with the HP example, the buildings often lose their "bearings" on the real paper and just freeze on screen.
It looks like there's already a class (for flash) - portability for iphone(?)

It seems to work best with solid-color images though, rather than a complicated map, as in the HP example. Is it possible to get the cam on an Android or iPhone to do the augmented reality effect?

How can you detect that a user swiped his finger in some direction over a web page with JavaScript?
I was wondering if there was one solution that would work for websites on both the iPhone and an Android phone.

I need to test, with Selenium or a similar automated testing tool, how my webapp behaves on iPhone's Mobile Safari and on Android browser. How can I do that?
I usually test my app by hand setting Safari 5 with User Agent = "Mobile Safari", I used iPhoney as well but it's too buggy IMO.

Update: According to posters below it doesn't work on their fascinate. You can control the screen brightness, by swiping right or left, up where the notification bar is. if it doesn't work, try turning off power saving mode. settings>sound and display>power saving mode uncheck

just bought my Droid on Sunday after the underwhelming Nexus One release. I'm using the Dolphin Browser and struggling to figure out how to get back to the mobile versions of sites. I know it was sending me to the mobile engadget site there at first, but lately I can only get to the full site. I'd really rather see the mobile one for loading time purposes. I remember on my Hero there was an option buried in the menu for this, but I can't find it on the Droid. Does it matter that I'm in Dolphin instead of the stock browser? And doesn't AndroidForums have a mobile version as well? Can't seem to get to that either.

Has anyone else noticed that the text on the mobile version of ESPN's website gets cut off on the Droid's browser? I feel like this is a relatively recent change, but I really couldn't say for sure.

Lots of people underestimated Apple and thought Android phones were ahead of the game. Judging by this video, it seems like a tie if not Apple has the race still won. I mean, the fluidness of iPhone is just amazing, which honestly makes it look more intriguing.

Is it possible to open the regular Facebook page in the browser? I am almost able to log in to it, but then it asks me for my birthday because I'm not browsing from a "familiar location". So I select my correct birth date from the drop-down menus, but the Login button stays grayed out for some reason and I can't go any further. Has anyone else had any success?My reason for wanting this is so I can access the actual Notifications page. The way I currently have it set up, I get an e-mail notification in Gmail. Then when I click the link in the e-mail for whatever update it's supposed to take me to, it just takes me to the homepage of Facebook Mobile. Then sometimes it won't even list the New Notifications link. This makes it very inconvenient if I want to go find where to reply to a comment or something. I have to know exactly where it is, which is difficult if it's not recent.

1. Make sure all of your contacts from your current phone are synced up with Outlook.
2. Goto File
3. Import and Export
4. Select "Export to a file" and Click Next
5. Select "Comma Seperated Values (Windows)" and click Next
6. Select Contacts and click Next
7. Choose a destination for the file to be saved and click next
8. Click Finished
If you have excel or a spreadsheet program, go ahead and open the file. In the last name field make sure that each person either has a last name or has some letter in the field or they will not import correctly. They will just end up showing up with a phone number w/o a name. After doing this, resave the file........

I have just created and iPhone web app, which has some x264 (mp4) video files on it. When I link directly to the file on the iPhone and the user taps the link, the video player is loaded and the video starts playing. Using the app on an Android phone causes the browser to download the video instead of just playing it. Is there a way to force a video player to just boot up and play the video not download it?

I am entering mobile development. I have been working primarily in .NET since 1.0 came out in beta. Before that, I was mostly a C++ and Delphi guy and still dabble in C++ from time to time. I do web apps quite a bit so I am reasonably proficient with Javascript, JQuery and CSS. I have also done a few Java applications. I started web programming with CGI and live mostly in the ASP.NET MVC world these days.
I am trying to decide on which platform/OS and tool to select. I am concerned with the size of the market available for my applications as well as the marketibility of the skills I will pick up.
The apps I have in mind would work on both phones and pads. Some aspects of what I have in mind will play better on the bigger screens that will be available on pads.
Here are the options I am considering:
Apple iPhone/iPad using pure Apple SDK (Objective-C)
Apple iPhone/iPad using Mono Touch (C#)
Android using pure Android SDK (Java)
Multiple platforms using something like Titanium to generate native apps from web technologies (HTML, CSS and Javascript)
Multiple platforms using HTML5 web applications that run in the browser (HTML, CSS and Javascript).

Has anyone found a browser speed test of the HTC Incredible vs the IPhone 3Gs or the Nexus One? I would love to see how the Incredible does vs one of them. If anyone wants to make a video and post it if they have access to those devices, please feel free and do so too.

Here's a general question... I have an evo and there are apps like the htc gallery where smoothness of the animation are just as good as the iphones.
But why doesn't the browser zoom and scroll as nice as the iphone browser? Don't we have enough horsepower to match the quality as the iphone rendering?

How do I keep the browser from sending me to watered down "mobile" sites instead of the full blown site. For example m.si.com instead of the full sports Ill site. a couple sites just starting converting me to mobile without me wanting it.

OK so Android comes with this great web browser built in, but I've got a problem with it that is driving me nuts... there is no way to change the browser agent string so that it may be detected by websites as a full-featured browser and deliver desktop web page content rather than mobile browser content (You are redirected to ESPN's mobile site for example when browsing to www.espn.com). In Browser Settings I have Mobile view unchecked, but this does not affect being redirected to mobile content websites. I know some people probably prefer the mobile formatted content, but I wish it was at least an option so I could get to the true desktop version of a site if I wanted to.

I placed this query on another board but no ones has been able to help so far. Anyone any idea if this exists or nor? Is there any way of reading a barcode from your mobile browser? I'm sure I'm missing something here. Every time I find a barcode while browsing on my phone I then have to open the same web page on a desktop / laptop so I can snap it with the barcode reader on my phone. I'm probably just being stupid but can I get my phone browser to read the barcode? Do any browsers offer this as a plugin?

Is there any way that a webpage can make a request for the users location from the android / iphone device ? Since all I need is the users location, I am trying to figure out if there is anyway I can bypass developing a native app and use some nifty html5 call to just get the users location so all a user would need to do is visit my webpage and provide permission to access his/her location?

I'm developing an HTML/Javascript mobile web application using Dashcode. Normally I wouldn't use such WYSIWYG stuff, but I've found it a very rapid development process.
Unfortunately it seems like I can't get it to run on Android's browser currently. The main display loads and all the correct data is pulled from web services, but you cannot press on anything to activate it.
I suspect that the android browser is sending different javascript events, which the Dashcode objects are not configured to pick up.
In addition, the adb logcat debugger refuses to output any log messages from the browser on the emulator, and as such I'm having a very hard time sorting this out.
What events I need to be watching for, so I can iterate over all the touch handlers and duplicate them for the android events, or offer help in any other way on this situation?

With the Dolphin browser, is there a way to "force" a website to load as a FULL/normal/regular html website rather than as an m.site.com mobile website?
For example, when I try to navigate to eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices I am ALWAYS redirected to m.ebay.com
Is this a setting within the Dolphin Browser or is this controlled by the website itself??
I looked through the settings and could not find a preference to chose between mobile and "full html" site options
