I'm quite new to Android so please excuse if this is the wrong forum, but I have searched up and down and also this list, but is there no way to externally link from my website into the market to show my app within a desktop browser and not on the device? I mean similar to the iTunes links where you can view the application details right in any browser.

I downloaded an external browser and I would like to use it as my default, so if I click on a link, it opens it up in the new browser. Is there a way to go about doing this?
View 7 Replies View RelatedAndroid devices become incredible cheap (especially those with android v1.6). I'm considering to use one as a brain of autonomous robot. Unfortunately I didn't find any info on that.
I would like to connect two external USB-webcams and some DIY-selfmade USB ADC & output-ports converter to steer the wheels and read analog distance sensors. If I choose some cheap netbook than they usually already have 3 usb ports. But if I will be forced to use a tablet, then it requires also an usb hub.
Do android devices support usb-hubs?
Is there any API to grab still frames from external usb webcams (e.g. "vfa://0" & "vfa://1")
Is there any API to read from USB custom device? Let assume that it will simulate serial port for simplicity.
Do I get all of this in android 1.6 or any newer version?
As an update for your information: Based on answers I assume that android device will be too expensive in comparison to effort. I will go for cheap atom netbook with standard linux & arduinio USB device for controls & sensors. At cost of half kg (one pound) heavier device I will save months on learning & development.
Has anyone installed an external app i.e. from an SD card on there Wildfire. If yes, which app did you use. One way to install an external app is through HTC sync, however considering that sync doesn't work with the Wildfire yet, I need to find another way to do this.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to add support for Arabic (or other languages which are currently unsupported) to the applications supplied by android platform (e.g. Browser) without the need of having root-access. To add Arabic support (at least displaying only) in a normal application (using developer SDK), I will need to:
Add fonts
Modify (reshape) the characters to be rendered
For illustration, if I have string a aaa, I will need to change a aaa into a bcd because letter a at the beginning, middle, and end of a word need to be changed to b,c and d respectively). But now I want to compile android's Browser (and other apps). I am planning to get the source codes for these applications and their dependencies and bundle them as stand-alone applications which do not require root-access, and thus do not void the warranty.
Other solutions which void the warranty can be obtained here. My Questions: Is the application's (e.g. Browser's) source code + 'developer SDK' enough to accomplish this? Do I need to get the source code + the development environment for the android platform?
Any tips?
Whenever i am in an app or the browser, randomly at times my phone will just go straight to the homescreen. I do not hit the home button at all, it just goes there by itself. This happens on any screen, whether im browsing my pics, taking a pic, or browsing the net. Does anyone else have this issue? I noticed it started after the new update from htc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently bought the Xperia X10 mini handset and since it was unable to download the settings from my service provider, I had to manually do the APN setup.
However, I was successful getting the internet from my handset browser but not from the applications like Email, Gmail, GTalk, Sony Ericsson Sync, and Market. I've got the notification icon for EDGE data transmission and is being indicated when accessed from the browser but not from the applications.
Do I need to do any other setting in order to access the internet from the applications? Can someone please help me setting up?
I am really struggling with linking menus together. The app I want to create is a collection of menus that leads to url links to various sites I plan to open within the application. I have created a list activity menu with 8 options and I have eight classes with further options. My problem is how to link the menus together. I ask the question and someone said that I should map. Here is the code:
public class MyList extends ListActivity {
private static final String Cp = null;
private static final String Pp = null;
private static final String L2 = null;
private static final String L1 = null;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
// Create an array of Strings, that will be put to our ListActivity
String[] names = new String[] { "Pp", "Cp", "L1", "L2", "Bt", "Se", "As", "Travel"};
// Create an ArrayAdapter, that will actually make the Strings above................
I have a WebView which may contain data that appears to be getting "auto linked". Something that looks like an email address is becoming clickable, even though it's now within an <a> tag or has an onclick attribute. How do I disable this auto-linking? I've looked through the WebView docs, as well as the WebSettings docs, but didn't seem to see anything that mentions this behavior.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFirst off; I know the implementation of this should be discussed on the framework list, but I'm putting this idea out on here to see if there is a need for it. I've recently worked on a project where the designer wanted a 2 x 3 grid of icons as the apps "home" page. This threw up an interesting situation because to do this using the best resolution possible it seems we would either need to copy the actual icons into multiple directories, or create a resource alias file for each icon, neither of which is ideal (think 30+ icons across the app which needed duplicating). What I'm wondering is if there is a need for a single file which contains all of the resources to use within another resource directory. To give you an idea of the problem I'll scale it down to 3 icons which have mdpi and hdpi variants;
drawables/icon1.png drawables/icon2.png drawables/icon3.png drawables-hdpi/icon1.png drawables-hdpi/icon2.png drawables-hdpi/icon3.png
As the Dell Streak is a WVGA device that identifies itself as a large- mdpi device we wanted to use the -hdpi icons for it, but this would result in three new files containing resource aliases; drawables-large-mdpi/icon1.xml drawables-large-mdpi/icon2.xml drawables-large-mdpi/icon3.xml What I'm wondering is should this be a single file which contains a list of all the imports. For example;
drawables-large-mdpi/imports.xml which contains;.......

I am some facebook contacts that don't have phone numbers on their fb accounts so I go to People and then click Add Contact, I enter their name and number and then I hit save.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a great software foundation based on Microsoft MVC 2, Entity Framework 4, Repositories, POCOs, Service and Control layers, C# Views, JQuery and html. Firefox pulls 100 records in 250 ms, drops it in to a template, links the data to the markup, and we sit back and drink margaritas.
Boss walks in and says he wants an iPhone app. I bet we need an Android app too.
What frameworks could we use to easily jump from our Microsoft comfort zone in to the wide, wide world of the Apple iPhone / iPad, along with a follow-up Android baby.
I imagine we could use our JSON controller methods to communicate. Is there some type of a client side JavaScript consuming app framework we could get a reasonable Website like interface re-working? They didn't like the idea of simply running the whole thing in Safari, which works pretty well.
Needs:
Send and receive JSON objects
Some type of template engine so we can pair up objects to markup, or at least some way to separate design from programming
Something similar to JQuery would be nice
A good editor with auto-complete and highlighting, something that compares to VS2010
It took us two years to incorporate design patterns, Agile methods, and Domain Driven concepts using MVC and Javascript. We may have two or three months to re-produce the same functions.
