View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write some functional tests for my application that include interactions with the UI. As part of the test I'm trying to press a button programmatically. I've both tried TouchUtils.clickView() and Robotium (third party's utility for this task). But buttons don't get pressed. With Robotium, whose sources are simpler to understand, I can track my code until it properly generates ACTION_DOWN and ACTION_UP events. At the same time, I've tried a Robotium sample together with a small sample application, and it works perfectly. So, Robotium works and my Android SDK is ok.it must be something specific of my application. What should I check?

I've tried intercepting the back button press but it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if this is because it's not executing the code or I'm using the wrong command.

The docs say "The onStart() and onStop() methods can be called multiple times, as the activity alternates between being visible and hidden to the user"When I press the back button an it will go back to the previous activity which totally covers the old one.What is going on here?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I go to previous screen manually.say 'on button click'?Its similar to imitate the BACK button click.
I used below code but no luck.
startActivity(new Intent(ViewOfferActivity.this, this.getCallingActivity().getClass
Essentially, what I'd like to do is to be able to press the 'back' button on my Hero to take a picture, rather than pressing the trackball.

How do you get back to the browser that is still running in the background and to the same website you were working on? I hope there's an easy answer and I'm just stupid.
I have installed Tasker and I'm new to using it. My favorite music player is Playerpro, but what I was wondering is what would i need to put in variables or actions, if I wanted to use the volume buttons to press skip or back while the screen is off and i'm using the app.I would use Gravity Box to do so but Cyanogen or any of its tweaks and mods are not compatible with the SM-G730v.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded my htc desire s to the official 3.5 sense version and them to the endymion rom and both have something quite annoying in all browsers I have tried (dolphin, stock and boat browsers).
What happens is pressing back sends me to the top of a web page, meaning I have to press back twice to get to the previous page. It's not a huge deal, just a minor annoyance.
When I press the back button all the way isnt it suppose to close the browser? The web browser still shows as a running app.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFrom the moment I received my HTC Hero from orange several weeks ago I noticed the when I press the back arrow button on the bottom right of the phone its clicks and creaks, dont think its the button itself but its the plastic battery case that makes the sound.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Whenever I am using any app and press the home button, the home screen blacks out for a few secs and it takes around 10 sec to get all the icons back and before I can start using my phone again. I am using a non rooted mytouch 3g.
This problem does not happen if I exit an app by pressing the back button. It becomes very annoying at times.
So i rooted with Droid Does rom, because i heard its nice and fast and what not. So basically the only problem i have with it is this.
When on a call, the proximity sensor doesnt work, so the screen goes black. And when i press the end call button to turn the screen back on it just ends the call. Is this normal? Or a known issue?
it just flips out goes up and down and the screen cant be touched untill i press the top button and it goes back to the screen lock, i have it rooted and running 2.2 im not all up on what this does should i just reset to og settings?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have, for the time being, a custom view with a 9-patch image as a border.
That custom view is placed three times in a LinearLayout, so it looks like this:
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
I have attached a click event listener to the View, so it is clickable. But then I click it, I cant see that I am clicking it - there is no change in color.
So, Im thought that I'd attach a "onPress" listener, and then change the background of the view but I couldnt find such a listener.
So, the question is - how do I create the behaviour on the View so I can see that it is being pressed? this is normally done in Android with a green background to indicate that it is now being pressed.
This is my first android device and i'm loving it... but one thing that irks me is the use, or lack thereof, of the back button.
As I am navigating menus and options in the Settings, I cannot simply go back one menu using the back key. For example, if I go to Settings->Battery Manager->Battery Profile Options and want to go back to the Settings screen, I cannot.
Pushing the back button does nothing and I can only go back to the Settings menu by going Home, then re-entering.
Another quirk regarding the back button is when reading emails. Using a regular email account such as Hotmail, I cannot simply read an email and go back to the inbox using the button.
It makes navigating the phone very tedious.
Is it me or does it not vibrate for every key press now?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a simple ListView in my layout.xml file.
<ListView android:id="@+id/action_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />..........
And in my javacode, I add a setOnItemClickListener() to my listview:
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
System.out.println ("get onItem Click position= "+position);}});
But when I run on G1. I don't see any print out when I click an item on the ListView on the phone.Or when I select an item using track ball and press CENTER.
I am trying to detect when the physical Menu button on my Android phone has been pressed.I though the code below would work but it does not.Where am I going wrong please?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to catch when the user has pressed the Home button. I thought I could use
protected void onResume()
{
registerReceiver(homeReceiver, new IntentFilter(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME));
}
...
private BroadcastReceiver homeReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver()
{
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
// logic here
}
};
but that doesn't seem to work. I understand that onPause will be called, but my particular app has some logic that I need to handle separately. Short story is based on some info coming in, the app will display new Activities to the user. To prevent Back button issues, as each Activity hits it's onStop it calls finish on itself. However if the user presses the Home button I do not want the Activity to call finish so that when the user presses the app icon on the home screen or via the Recently run apps list, the last Activity is brought back
