Android :: Is There A List Of Standard Intent Specifications?
Nov 14, 2009
I'm looking into getting my application to show up when the user tries to 'share' a picture via the Gallery application I can't, however, find any information about how exactly to go about this. I get that I need to declare an intent filter for the SHARE action, what I can't seem to find is how the Gallery wants to send out the selected image. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/11/integrating-applicatio... documentation is key indeed.

I have a database, a ListView, and a CustomCursorAdapter that extends CursorAdapter. A menu button adds an item to the database. I want the ListView to update and show this change. Normally it doesn't show this new item until i go to the homescreen and reopen the application.
I did eventually get it to work by calling cursor.requery() or mCustomCursorAdapter.changeCursor(newCursor) whenever I added a new item, but when I set autoRequery to false in the CursorAdapter constructor, it worked just the same. Why does it update correctly when autoRequery is set to false?
Am I using CursorAdapter correctly? What is the standard way of keeping the list updated with the database? And what does autoRequery do?

I have search Android docs and for some insane reason I am not able to find the list of all available intent filters.
I am finding an intent filter, which would do something like , notifying me through Broadcast Receiver that a particular Activity (example browser, or email ) has been started or in foreground. Can anyone help me with that .

I am creating a widget that you can assign a contact to onClick. I used the method that is described here. This works great on standard Android phones such as the Motorola Droid, HTC Nexus One and HTC G1. The problem is for users who are using devices such as the HTC Incredible or HTC Droid Eris (Both running Sense UI) and I imagine on other phones who's OS deviates from the vanilla flavor of Android.Using my current method I thought that the device's OS would hook into whatever that manufacture chose to use for their Contact system however users are being sent to a random list of numbers, not their Contact list. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get those Contacts or is this just another example of the Android fragmentation issue?

I have a few separate applications which are all launched purely through a main application.I am wondering if I'd be able to use intents to retrieve a list of all the sub-applications which match some discovery intent. The main application currently needs to know what Intents to use to START these sub-applications, but is there a way to use intents to see if other Activities on the device match a set of intent-filters?

Is it possible to show a list of applications (with intent.createChooser) that only show me my twitter apps on my phone (so htc peep (htc hero) or twitdroid). I have tried it with intent.settype("application/twitter") but it doesnt find any apps for twitter and only shows my mail apps.

Except perhaps screen side camera for video chat. Specs Third Verizon Android Phone has Video Calling? | Android Phone Fans. When I said looks like junk--i mean the actual look of it--not the specs which are decent and the keyboard looks better than droid. 20.3 mm thick. Droid is 13.7. CPU is the Marvell PXA 310, 624MHz. Seems there are two faster versions of this cpu. So this may be old tech. Update: Released in 2007 according to link.

I am on my first Android application and I am on a timeline so details and examples will be useful since my knowledge is still minimal. I want my first screen to present the user with a list of activities to choose from. In my situation it is a recipe app where the user first chooses the type of food, such as, Beef, Chicken, or Pork. I want the application to launch an activity depending on the list item that the user clicked on. I am not sure if I should use a list view, a text view, a scroll view, a list activity, an activity group...

I'm trying to create a multiple selection list where the selection is represented graphically rather than with checkboxes.My list has checkboxes, but I want them to serve a different purpose. I'm using a cursor to hold my data and created a custom view binder for the SimpleCursorAdapter. I did this for the checkboxes and general flexibility.So far I haven't even been able to show one line as being selected. I've enabled multiple selection on the list and denied the children of the list item focusability. I've tried manually changing background color with the position fed in through the list item click listener. But the wrong items get changed and they don't even change to the right color. I've enabled touch focusability with no improvement either.Ideally, I'd like the trackball highlight focus bar to appear in multiple places. But I don't think this is possible unless you use the drawable directly. But I don't know how to find or apply it. My next idea was to have a slim view bar that changes color. But I had the same problem with the wrong item being selected so I never finished trying to guess the index position to see if this would work. My most recent idea is to completely swap out the view for another one if it's selected. But I have no idea how to do this either. I'm thinking of using an array list to store the _id s of the items that need a different view to get around the wierd selection problem. I'm also thinking of passing in the ID field as my from and the selection view as the to for my adapter. Then I'd intercept it with my binder and change the view accordingly. But once again, I'm not sure how to do this successfuly.

I've read a couple of posts about handling Eula's and was wondering: Is there a standard EULA for apps on the Android Marketplace? If not, can there be and should there be? (If I understand correctly) all apps for the i Phone are subject to a standard agreement (the iTunes EULA) found at (http://www.apple.com/ legal/i tunes/app store/dev/stdeula/). Crucially, this allows the buyer to know what they are agreeing to BEFORE purchasing the app. It seems that with the Android model, everyone is responsible for their own license and the buyer doesn't know what they're agreeing to until after paying. This would seem to be a shrink-wrap license which is questionable, at least in US courts. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ EULA) Certainly some cases may merit a non-standard EULA, but it seems like it would do developers a huge favor to offer a standard license for the 99% of apps/games that don't need anything special. At the same time, it would eliminate a confusing situation for consumers who don't know what they are agreeing to anyway.

I'm new to Android, but have published iphone and bberry apps.I see that I have to create an emulator using the SDK, before I can write and test an app. Why are there no default emulators? Why not at least a Nexus one, or HTC hero emulator shipped with the product? Sure its supposed to be flexible, but why not make it easy to create hello world and play around with a virtual Android phone? Both blackberry and iphone come with default simulators when you download the sdk.

I'm trying to find the standard Android image used in Android 1.6 for an SMS action. The one that can be seen under contact details that looks like a postcard.I noticed that there was a standard image "sys_action_sms" which looked like a chat bubble in Android 1.0, but apparently that was removed at some point.

I notice that most android apps have some sort of standard in that they all look similar. Most of them have some sort of list of Text that are click-able. It's somewhat hard to explain but they look really nice and I was wondering is there some sort of tool or api that allows me to change the look of an app to make it similar? Or do I have to specifically specify the different fonts and different graphics?

I'm trying to tackle a problem that seemingly many Android developers have, which is how to intersperse lists with non-list data, in one big scrollable pane.The model I have in mind is the screen for an individual app in the Market. You have a big description, a list of a few lazily loaded comments, and then some individual items that do different things, like visit the developer's web page, call them, etc. And then in between them all, are nice section headers.Emulating this approach seems to be extremely hard. I've read enough SO answers and mailing list posts to know not to put a ListView inside of a ScrollView, but I want the same effect without using addHeader() and addFooter() with very complex header and footer views. I've tried using a LinearLayout that I stock with views myself, but I can't get the pleasant click effects that default list items have (the orange background, white for long-click, etc.).

I use tabs in my Android application and one of my tabs contains a listview. I'm noticing some weird behavior when I override isEnabled in my list's adapter and then try to use the D-pad to move up and down through the list and to my tabs.If the 0th item of the list is enabled, then everything works as expected - I can move down through the list, and then up again and once I reach the top of the list, pressing up moves focus to my tab.However, if the 0th item is DISABLED (isEnabled in my adapter returns false), then when I press up while position 1 is focused, the focus gets stuck. It doesn't move up to the tab as I would have expected and instead stays on position 1 of the list.

By Default in the Listview,focus will come on the list item.Instead of that, can I get only the border to the list item?I can achieve this by using a transparent image as a list selector.Is there any other simplest way to achieve this requirement?

I have just got the new Samsung Galaxy S phone, which after using Nokia N97 is a brilliant phone. My main issue is that it doesn't have standard phone profiles yet the function manual I downloaded from the Samsung site clearly says it does? Any ideas? Not a major issue but I guess I just got used to having profiles. Secondly, is there a way to sort the photos in the gallery into different folders? For example in months or tags?
