I realize there is many ways to search a through a list (you can just start type, or you can use the hardware search button to open the search dialog). I've seen in many applications there is a button to open the search dialog, as if you pressed the hardware search button.

I have created a class extends ListActivity and i want to add a button at bottom of Listactivity. Can any body tell me how it can be done.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this is a classic question, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere. I'm trying to have a ListActivity whose items feature a button. As soon as I include the button on my item layout, the rows are no longer selectable. Any pointers to tutorials or sample code would be much appreciated.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI wanted to know how to create a listActivity on Droid but on the bottom have a bottom to do whatever I want so like in a section of its own. Recently I tried merging two layouts with one being the row one for list Activity and a button but all I get are a list with buttons next to each line on the list so how can we do a list with a space on the bottom just for a button?

Intent i = new Intent(); i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); i.setAction(Media Store.INTENT _ACTION_MEDIA_SEARCH); i.putExtra(SearchManager.QUERY, mSong.getArtits() + " " + mSong.getName()); i.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_ARTIST, "artist"); i.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_ALBUM, "album"); i.putExtra (Media Store.EXTRA_MEDIA_TITLE, mSong.getName()); i.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_FOCUS, "audio/*"); start Activity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Search for " + mSong.getName())); and this is working fine. My question is how can i add my affiliate partner key to the intent so amazon can receive it in the request.

View 8 Replies View RelatedA co-worker has an iphone app that allows him to draw a line and it only shows the results for his search within a specified distance of the drawn line as opposed to in a radius from where you are as is default in google. Thus not giving you results that are behind you and don't really help. He said it is called Y! Sketch. I couldn't find that specific app in the Android market. Is this because I'm a search noob and just missed it? If that specific app is not made for Android, is there another similar app?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to look for a torrent solution. I have transdroid right now, and it is able to communicate with my seedbox and I can manage torrents that are already loaded on there. My problem is adding new torrents from my private websites. I have noticed that torrent-fu will allow you to search some of the public websites for new torrents, but that doesn't work for me. Right now I have to download the .torrrent file with my default browser.
And it saves the file as "unknown.torrent" then I have to open it with transdroid. This question is worded weird, but basically what I would like, is a torrent app with built in private torrent site searching / downloading. Or the ability to have my dolphin browser, recognise the .torrent extension, and associate transdroid with that.
I have a large(ish) database - around 30MB, created offline with 400,000 rows. Doing a simple select (name LIKE pattern%) and then showing the query in a listview takes about 10 seconds. I tried indexing that field but no difference. If this is normal I will just use a raw data file and do a binary search myself. If this is not normal I hope someone has a hint or two to what might be wrong.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI hate complaining, but there are issues with this forum. Try searching with the keywords "highlight ListView". It yields 0 results. What's going on here? This post solved my problems, but was impossible to find using the search. A proper search result would have saved me many days work. Until this is solved I think it will cause a lot of uneccessary posts regarding the same issues.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an application that has 3 tabs. Under the middle tab should be a ListView. It starts up fine (on the left tab) but when I click the middle tab it crashes.
The other two tabs are static data specified in the main.xml file. But the middle tab, I try to create dynamically. Here's the code from the main onCreate function:

Instead I appear to get an exception:

ContactListActivity is defined this way:
public class ContactListActivity extends ListActivity { ...
I get the feeling that I'm supposed to create the Intent with something like Intent.ACTION_VIEW but this is where I get lost. If this is the problem, I could try stuff until it works, but I'd prefer to understand why.
Or is ContactListActivity supposed to override something ?
I have a problem with rotation, during my ListActivity is loading data from the network. To do it I use a background thread which recovers data and put them inside an ArrayList. While this thread works, there is Progress dialog activated in foreground. For the rotation I use the method with onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() to save my ArrayList's state. After android calls this method, I call dismiss() on the progress dialog on onStop(). Then the activity is created as new with onCreate(), but it use the getLastNonConfigurationInstance() to recover the ArrayList's state. Now, my problem. If I rotate from portrait to lanscape when the download is terminated and I see the data in portrait yet, everything is ok. If I rotate during progress dialog is showing I have two cases: 1- onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() saves the arraylist fully recovered, the thread terminates and everything is ok. 2- onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() saves the arraylist empty, i think the download isn't finished yet. The onCreate is called and my list is empty, the thread terminates, but i don't see anything in my list. If I am in this case and I still rotate from landscape to portrait now I can see my list full with all the data. Why? Where am I wrong?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to create a custom list view in my application. I want it to lay over the top of the application screen, with portions of the screen not filled by the listview showing the underlying application. I've been reading about ListActivity, how it can be started to handle item selected callbacks. I've also read about people simply inserting onClick handlers into the listview as it is drawn. I'm trying to decide the best way to proceed. Is it "dirty" to attach onClick handlers to the rows of a listview? It doesn't seem like the best approach, for instance, it only handles Touch Mode, not the DPAD clicks. This approach doesn't seem like what the architects had in mind. On the other hand, I don't see a good way that I can start a list activity and still have access to all the application variables I need. Do I pass the application in the context and refer back to it from even handlers after casting the context back to it's original class?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an ListActivity that I wan't to add a logo to at the top above the list but I'm unsuccessful. This is what my layout looks like at the moment.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <ImageView android:id="@+id/logo" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> <ListView android:id="@android:id/list" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"> </ListView> <TextView android:id="@+id/empty" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/list_empty" /> </LinearLayout>
Then I add an drawable to the ImageView logo in onCreate. I've managed to show either the ListView or the ImageView but never both of them in the same LinearLayout. Is it possible to add other views together with a ListView?
I am using a ListActivity. Each list entry contains an ImageView and a TextView. I have a huge list and has been getting Out of Memory errors once I scroll through a fair amount of them. I figured I need to reduce the size of the images but I am wondering what happens to the objects once the list entry is hidden from view (as i scroll down the list). I have read somewhere that the list entry objects are automatically re-use. But what happens to the drawable images which were loaded into the ImageView? IF the ImageView object is reused, what happens to the binary image? Are they freed automatically? How do I prevent the OutOfMemory exception? I want to do something similar like the Android Market. As one scroll downwards the images are loaded and new entries are loaded. The Markey can have a long list which one can scroll down and all the way back up again without any problem. The only difference being mine throws OutOfMemory Exception. Advice anyone?

Since upgrading to 2.2, I've noticed my Navigation takes MUCH longer to search for GPS. It now either never gets directions (the "Getting driving directions." pop-up box just sits there forever until I back out) and I have to turn GPS off and on then back out of Navigation and restart it OR it'll get the directions but say "Searching for GPS." for at least a couple minutes.
