Android :: App - Locale
Jun 24, 2010Locale is one of my faverate App, it can create situations specifying conditions under which your phone's settings should change. For example, your "At School" situation notices when your location condition is "77 Massachusetts Ave.," and changes your ringer volume setting to vibrate.
With Locale's advanced touch-screen interface, you'll be set up in no time. Quickly define locations that are important to you using a simple Google Maps interface.
If you think this is exactly what you are looking for, you can download it in the market

Feb 15, 2010My users can change the Locale within the app (they may want to keep their phone settings in English but read the content of my app in French, Dutch or any other language ...)
Why is this working perfectly fine in 1.5/1.6 but NOT in 2.0 anymore?

The problem is that the MENU "shrinks" more and more everytime the user is going through the lines of code above ...
This is the Menu that gets shrunk:

As I want to keep my application accessible for users on 1.5.

Android :: How To Retrieve Locale Independent App?
Jan 21, 2010I'm using PackageManager.getApplicationLabel(ApplicationInfo) to retrieve application labels. It looks like the label that is returned depends on the Locale set for the phone. For instance with the music app I get "Music" in English, vs. "Musica" if I have my locale set to Spanish. Is there a way to get the default application label (perhaps as defined in strings.xml)? I want to be able to retrieve an application label for each app that is independent of locale.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Wi-Fi Keeps Turning On And Locale Isn't Working
Jun 16, 2010I've already read the issues with Locale, and that's sad, because I love the concept of the app. Even before I bought a smartphone and knew about Locale, I wished the existence of such a thing would exist. Hence my excitement when I got it was off the charts, but now, not so much. The situations aren't enabling and it's the same 'ole story of "Defaults" dicking everything up.
Can someone please make a Locale that works? (rhetorical question...).
Anyways, another frustration I've come across is that my Wi-Fi keeps turning on. Does anyone know what setting is causing this? I'm about to do a hard reset again and just say screw it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Launch App With Specific Locale
Jun 10, 2010Changing the locale for a device is done in the settings, and can't be done by an app AFAIK.I know how to force my own app to a specific locale,So now to my question. Can I force, programatically, the local of an activity that isn't mine?I can imagine 2 ways this could be possible:Specifying the locale in an Intent used to start the activity.
Access and manipulate the configuration of running activities (in the same way as I can modify my own activities' configurations).Any thoughts? Is it possible? Is it reasonable?
I guess 2. would be more direct, but require some kind of permission (e.g. the modified atcitiy must allow it in the manifest file). But I'd settle for 1. or similar.
What I want is to be able to see certain apps in a different language, but rather not change the system locale. E.g. the Android Market, that only displays comments in one language. Can't think of other things right now.Can't find much written on Locale in the documentation, what is and isn't possible. But hoping some undocumented feature might enable this :)

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Settings / Profile Switching App - Not Locale
Nov 6, 2009I'm looking for an app that will allow me to set up different profiles for phone settings that can be switched easily by choosing a "profile" from a list.I DON'T want Locale. i want to be able to do this by choosing from a list, NOT based on my location.For example, a user could set up a Power Saver profile, a Power User profile, an Online Profile, etc. Each of these profiles should be customizable. For example, I should be able to customize the "Power Saver" profile to the power settings I want (ie. Screen brightness, WiFi off, Bluetooth Off, Syncing Off, etc).Is there anything like this? Ideally I'm hoping for something that has a free version, as I am in Canada and we can't get paid apps yet.For the record, I am using Useful Switchers, but I don't want to have to go through all the various steps each time I want to go back and forth from power saving and using my phone online.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Locale - Not Switching Back To Defaults
Dec 1, 2008new to Android, G1 and the forums Wondered if any of you can help?
I have 4 things set up in locale
1) turn on silent when at work
2) turn on Wi-fi when at home
3) turn on silent 6:30PM to 7:30PM (when getting my son to bed)
4) turn on silent 11PM to 8AM (so no emails are waking me!) number 2 works fine, the problem however is with the silent ones, ALL of them never go back to the default (ringer at full volume) when the time is up or when I'm away from the location. any ideas? I don't have GPS on, but the distance from home to work is large so it can't think I'm still anywhere near there plus that won't affect the time related ones.

Feb 24, 2010I try to force the locale in my app to one the user specified. As this may be used to demonstrations, I want to change the language/locale in the app and not anytime for the whole device.
I looked around SO and tried to use every hint I found here. The result: I can restart my test activity with the new language, but if I change the orientation, the locale will always be reseted to the device one.
I uploaded a minimalistic project so you can reproduce my issue. Please ignore the shrinking of the UI, its not important :)

The log shows this:

Dec 9, 2009I have a simple "sleep" situation set up.
Conditions:
Time: 11:00 PM-6:30 AM
Settings:
Notification: Status Bar
Shortcut: Bedside (Alarm Clock/notification suppressant)
Configure Defaults:
Display: Level 2; 30 sec
Volume: Level 3; vibrate off
I had an issue with picking up GPS at home with using cell tower triangulation and leaving GPS off. So, I removed that portion.
I have no issues with Locale going into the situation, but it never comes out. I have to manually close Locale and sometimes forget when I first wake up, so I will miss text messages and emails.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Selecting Language From Within App Rather Than By Locale Of System Settings
Feb 13, 2010I would like to give the users of my app the possibility of selecting a language from within the application. All languages are supplied the standard way via the values resource directory. However, I don't want Android to select which resource directory to use but let the user decide instead. Any ideas how to accomplish that? The rationale for this: - some languages are not supported by the Android framework and can not be selected as a locale via the system settings - if you buy a phone in Spain, it will typically not have a system setting for Russian language, if you purchase in Russia, you will have that setting. So a Russian person in Spain would prefer using the Russian language included with the app, but can't access it
