Android :: Is There Any Unicode Single Char Guaranteed To Be Available In All Appliances
Aug 27, 2010
In some cases I have messages, typically shown in a toast message, where there are three trailing periods. For instance, "bla bla bla. Please wait...". Note that this is _not_ an elipsis, as the string is not truncated. The problem is that sometimes the string is wrapped at the end of line and I get two periods in the first line, a newline, and then a single orphaned period in the next line.
I'd like to have the "..." not broken by any means. How can this be done in a reliable way? E.g. is there any Unicode single char guaranteed to be available in all Android appliances that gets rendered as three periods?

I am in the process of designing a new item. Its basically a GPS tracker inside the insoles of shoes, which fits universally into all different types of shoes. It is aimed at older people with dementia and perhaps young children. Iv came up with the idea of an app, where the user can select a "safe zone" on their phone, and once that person goes out the safe zone they are notified via the app.

If a String is longer than the TextView's width it automatically wraps onto the next line. I can avoid this by using android:singleLine (deprecated) or by setting android:inputType="text". What I now need is something that replaces the last 3 characters of my String with "...". Since I'm not using a monospace font this will always be different depending on the letters used in my String. So I'm wondering what's the best way to get the last 3 characters of a String in a TextView and replace them. Maybe there's already something implemented in the Android framework, since this must me a common problem.

I have some messages being passed back from my server through php. The problem is that the messages are in English and if the user is using another language they will still get the message in English.
So I had an idea that maybe instead of passing back the message I would instead pass the String resource Id from the android app, that way the app will get the correct string id for their language. I will use this in a number of apps so I just want to know if the string id is guaranteed to be the same across different android projects?

I would like to know if it is possible to get 'leftover' calls to AsyncTask#onProgressUpdate after AsyncTask#onPostExecute has been called? I am setting text on the same TextView using both of them, and I don't want to set text such as "Done!" and then have it overwritten at a later point by text such as "Almost there - 90%"Also, I am assuming that the onProgressUpdate method works similar to a SwingWorker method in that multiple calls to publishProgress may stack up before a call to onProgressUpdate occurs. I would really like to know where the "newer" and "older" progress updates are on the parameter - aka are the newest updates at position 0 in the parameter, or at position progress.length?

I"m planning to store my data in a binary format as a resource, read it into an int buffer and basically pass it straight down to a native C++ function, which might cast it to a struct/class and work with it. No pointers, obviously, just ints and floats. The question is - what kind of fixing up do I need to do? I suppose that I need to check ByteOrder.nativeOrder(), figure out if it's big Indian or little Indian, and perform byte-swapping if need be. Other than that, floats are presumably guaranteed to be expected in IEEE 754 format? Are there any other caveats I'm completely overlooking here? (Also - since I'm compiling using the NDK, I know what architecture it is already (ARMv7-A, in my case), so can I technically skip the Indian shenanigans and just take the data the way it is?)

I frequently run into the problem that I have to preserve state between several invocations of an activity (i.e. going through several onCreate()/onDelete() cycles). Unfortunately, Android's support for doing that is really poor. As an easy way to preserve state, I thought that since the class is only loaded once by the class loader, that it would be safe to store temporary data that's shared between several instances of an activity in a static Bundle field. However, occasionally, when instance A creates the static bundle and stores data in it, then gets destroyed, and instance B tries to read from it, the static field is suddenly NULL. Doesn't that mean that the class had been removed and reloaded by the classloader while the activity was going through a create/destroy cycle? How else could a static field suddenly become NULL when it was referencing an object before?

I am developing application for android phone. Currently I am testing my system in the emulator. In my application, I want to send Unicode character (Amharic language character) via SMS to the other emulator instance. But in the receiver side, the message is not viewed properly. I think the problem is some character encoding related problem. In addition similar problem happens for texts which are queried for the sqlite database. That is when I send a query result via SMS the same problem occurs.

I'm fetching some data from my web API that returns XML with content which includes escaped unicode characters. So there is content such as "Izložba" which I need to display in a TextView as word "Izložba". How can I do this? Right now these characters are either omitted or displayed as that raw escaped value.

I am having a unicode string "u3403" which is actualy some japansee character I want to pass it through a JSON object. So i put the value as say String str ="u3403" jsonObject.put("name",str); When i do this the json object internally adds another escape sequence as "u3403", and the request string has two "" slashes.This is interpreted wrongly by the server as it does not detect unicode name.What can i do for this?

I have an assignment to be completed. The assignment needs sms texting service facility in Roslien Font (for each English alphabet we have a corresponding alphabet in Roslien, something like Wingdings) for Android platform. On going through the posts available on different forums in INTERNET, I observed that in order to send a different language text, I need to send the sms as a unicode string. The problem is, I have no clue on how to obtain the unicode string for a completely new font , Roslien. I have a " .ttf " file for the font which as such which contains the alphabets in the language.
Please help me , how do I obtain unicode string for the particular font.

I'm from Portugal and here we have some accentuated letters like "à á é ç ã õ".
When the system language is set to English and we insert one of these letters the SMS limit falls down from 160 charachters to 70 because it changes the encoding of the SMS .
What I would like to know is if it's possible to come with an hack to force the system to encode the SMS in a particular way so these kind of letters don't cut us 90 characters off the message.
Actually this is a problem in a lot of countries. Spain, France, Portugal, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and the list goes on... Any country that speeks a latin language really.
PS: I own a Samsung Galaxy S at the moment

I am writing an application where I need to display note names on TextViews. The special characters for Sharps (u266F) and Flats (u266D) work fine, but the natural sign (u266E) appears as a box. However, when I use Log.e the natural sign appears as expected in the log output.
Also, when the unicodes do display correctly (using .setText), they appear to be padded with a space on both the left and right.
For example C#3 appears as C # 3. I tried using replaceAll("\s","") on the string but it has no effect. Again, this problem does not occur when using Log.e
These problems occur whether defining the unicodes as character constants, string constants, or when reading from Strings XML file.
This is in the development environment using Eclipse Helios Service Release 2.

I am trying to display two Hindi characters in the text editing area. These characters are a combination of three unicode characters. For example: In order to display number 9, I use HTE following in the XML file:
<Key android:codes="57" android:keyLabel="9"/>
One character is a combination of three unicodes --> 0915 094D 0937 How should the XML file be modified in order to display the above two hindi characters ? How can I use three unicode values in android: codes in the text editing area?

Does anyone know how to get Unicode characters to work in an android app.
e.g Unicode U+00C1 HTML
I currently get these characters by holding down AltGr key on my PC keyboard and hitting the appropriate letter. (my Language is set to UK). I have used these characters in a custom Android App but when I call the application the characters appear as a Square with question mark in the middle?
I can add words to my dictionary in Android by holding down the letters required and adding them to my Android Dictionary. but when the same words are called from my custom App they appear as a Square with question mark in the middle?

I'd like to make a listview that used the ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE so that the user could only select one thing at a time. However, I want the background to change to the focused color when selected, rather than a checkbox checking off. A good example of what I'm trying to do would be basically any file browser, where the background changes color on each item you select in sequence.
