Android : Need App To Multiple Favorites Widgets For Groups
May 4, 2010
I have looked around a couple forums trying to find an app or process that will allow me a way to select a particular group of contacts as a favorites widget. It would be great if I could have my work contacts as one widget on one screen and my personal favorites on another. I also tried to put the work group into the favorites widget without success. I am one of those people that has several different "scenes" customized depending on where i am and what I'm doing. The current widget just doesn't work for what I need. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have used the bettercut app to make shortcuts to individual contacts, but that is not really what I'm looking for.

I'm playing with ADW launcher as it seems real nice.
One thing frustrating is that I can't use the HTC widgets like Favorites and the HTC calendar.
Is there any way to get these to work, or will they only work with sense?

why you can't add widgets on the lock screen if you use any other security option besides "swipe". I see it in settings but once you lock the screen you can't view any widgets. I like having my camera on my lock screen

After playing with my Incredible for many many many hours, just found a really sweet trick.In the favorites widget i have people with multiple numbers(cell, phone), and when you click on that person it calls the primary number, but last night i found that if you click the actual name of the contact(right under the actual pic) a detail properties pop up for that contact and from there you can callsmsemail the person via other numbers.now back to looking for more cool things

If an app provides multiple widgets, e.g. 1x1, 3x1 etc., does each widget need its own AppWidgetProvider or can they share one?

The configuration seem to allow it, however both widgets show up with the same label in the "widget list". I guess it may be a bad idea to do so as well due to shared space and multiple widgets needing to behave quite differently with different requirements.

Does anyone have any solution for placing multiple Galleries on a layout? The problem is only one Gallery will scroll with multiple Galleries on a layout. The other Galleries won't work. Anyone know a workaround?

If I create an application for Android, how do you package extra items in with it like a live wallpaper or widgets? For example, google maps does this by including a live wallpaper with the download of the latest version.
On a related note, with google maps, it's available for, I believe, 1.6 and up, but it seems that it is all the same download. So how do you ensure that, even though there may be a 2.x only feature included, it still shows up for lower OS phones? Or is the marketplace maybe actually holding onto two separate APKs for each OS?

I understand that widgets can use power; especially the ones that update (news, weather, etc.).
What I'm curious about is when you have launchers like Go Launcher and Launcher Pro Plus. If you have them both, what is happening to the widgets that are on the launcher you're not using (including the stock launcher). Are those widgets drawing power to update, even though you aren't seeing them? Should you delete all widgets, except for the launcher you're currently using?

I'm looking to clean up my home screens a little and would like to be able to create one on-screen folder or widget that can hold multiple other widgets for quick access and easy launch. Specifically, I have quite a few ColorNote files that I need quick access too, but don't necessarily want clogging up my home screen. I'm hoping there's something out there - either a folder organizer, launcher, or widget that can do this for me.
I currently use GoLauncher and FolderOrganizer on my SG Note.

I just upgraded my S2 to 4.2 and like the new android lock screen. But to replace widget locker I would like to have an option to have multiple widgets on one lock screen page.
Any app that simply puts multiple widgets into one widget that can be added to the lock screen?

I like the UI much better for launcher pro but I do miss some sense widgets like favorites. With launcher pro, I have to keep going through my phonebook or recent calls list to try to find people. It does get tedious. Is there any app/widget that is similar to the sense favorites?

I would like to add a favorites star like the one in the contacts list on android. Is there any way we can get that star or will I have to write my own? I can't seem to find any standard GUI Elements from android other than the options menu icons. Are there any more that I have not found?

I'm new to Android application development and I'm currently experimenting with various UI ideas. In the image below, you can see a vertically scrolling list of horizontally scrolling galleries (and also textviews as you can see). I'm also doing some matrix and camera transformations which I will come to in a minute.
For the background of the list elements, I use green. Blue is the background of the galleries, and red is the background for the images. These are just for my benefit of learning.
The galleries being used are extended classes where I overrode the drawChild method to perform a canvas scale operation in order for the image closest to the center (width) to be larger than the others. The list view going vertically, I overrode the drawChild method and used the camera rotations from lack of depth dimension in the canvas functionality. The items in the list are scaled down and rotated relative to their position's proximity to the center (height).............

Are there design guidelines to help decide if an application with multiple views should be designed with multiple activities or just one activity and control the back button itself.
I've tried both. My most complex applications using one activity per screen. However, now that I'm successfully written an app with just one activity and handling the back button myself, I don't see any compelling reason to use multiple activities. The one activity application is much simpler and more straightforward.
What advantages of multiple activities am I missing?

I'm working on an application using xml layouts.
I wish to know which is better:
1. Use few activities and change its contentview
2. Use an activity for each 'view' needed
If both works, in which case which option would be better?

I'm planning to develop and app that presents the users with several different screens (of different information).
Was wondering what would be the best way to implement this?
Is it better to have separate XML layouts and an activity to display and allow the user to interact with each screen of data?
OR would handling all of these in the same activity be more efficient (and dynamically load / unload each layout)?

Is there a way to do groups in a listview? Like I have a list of certain states, each state has its own sublist. I'd sort of like to replicate the HTML optgroup/option setup where you have a parent group then child groups. Is there a way to do this built in or would I have to do something tricky with a custom view for Parent elements then switch the view back to the child element style.

Android developer is the only part of my life on google groups and call me thick but I can not for the life of me understand how it works ! I have the hardest time following a thread I'm participating in because I can simply not find it back when I look for it, even using the search engine at the top ! I'm not receiving email alerts to warn me when somenone answers in it. In my profile tab, there is a summary of my last messages ... Which lags by 2 weeks !! Sometimes message I sent never appear there at all. I'm subscribed to a "Gay Pictures" group I'm pretty sure I never applied to.

I was one of the lucky few who accidentally received their HTC Incredible units early. To those eagerly waiting you will not be disappointed. This thing rocks. I've been to two Verizon stores and all of the employees were lusting after it.The Navigation is also "incredible" with the exception of not being able to save waypoints. With typical GPS stand-alone units, this is easily accomplished, but not with Android 2.1. Furthermore, coordinates cannot be put in, only addresses. Has anyone had any luck with some of the widgets available to perform these functions? For those of us who hunt or off-road, not every destination has a street address.

I am developing an Android application where you should be able to browse restaurants.
Im retrieving the information about the restaurants from a service, they are not stored locally on the device. But I want to allow the user to add a restaurant to his/her favorites.
What is the "best" way to store that kind of info on the device? Should I use Shared Preferences or Sqlite db? Or any other suggestions?
