I need that my user interface haves 3 sections
NORTH SECTION: four textviews with info about a user MIDDLE SECTION: a googlemap view with the position of the user SOUTH SECTION: a textview with time of last position, and a button to actualice the position (retrieving it from a database)
is this possible? i can't find any information about that on google or android developers guide...

I am looking for some answers from some of the experts here. I have a project in mind that I want to start. It is about using HTC's Touch HD phone as a device in a museum with rich media/video about the art and the artists on it. Besides the videos and animation, I also want to show some content from a web browser. Now my biggestest issue. I do not want that the museum guest who pick up the phone for the tour get to see the standard Android user interface. Is there a way to develop a new user interface that would start up directly once the phone is turned on? It should then automatically start the app with the museum infos. Later I may want to add some GPS functions and even sms and photo taking, etc....
What do you think, how flexible is Android to allow that?
In Android, how can I replace the user interface of an emulator by my own interface? I would like to start my own interface immediately as the emulator gets started and that the user can't use the original interface but the original interface is on the background.
Update:
Now my code looks like this...
As I run the program, Eclipse displays
ActivityManager: Warning: Activity not started, its current task has been brought to the front. Does anyone knows why?
Is there a place where I could find open source examples of User Interfaces for android apps. Like a project containing custom buttons, isons, sound effect, a nice layout with multiple blank activities that serves as a skin for your app. Strangely I didn't find anything like this whereas there are plenty of themes.

My phone should be delivered shortly, and I'm trying to decide what user interface I want to use. I'm new to Android and this is also my first smart phone. Can someone tell me what the advantages and disadvantages of these two user interfaces are?
View 8 Replies View RelatedWe are developing a software suite that heavily involves user interaction. We'd like to have a nice touch-based user interface, very similar to that of Android. Are there any libraries or other ways to easily build and use such user interfaces for own applications. We mainly develop in C++, but things in Python or Java or even something web-based..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI Have a Galaxy note, and I wanna change the User Interface of my phone. How do I do that? I mean the way everything looks( musics, buttons, settings, everything.) I dont if I am doing the right thing, but I downloaded some PSD files of interfaces I really liked, but I dont know what to do next.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAs far as I understand, Android and the Galaxy touch screen is not meant to be calibrated; at least, there does not seem to be a user interface for doing so (this is also true of the tilt and compass sensors, and yet various apps include their own calibration methods.)
The trouble is that I frequently --perhaps 40% of the time-- hit the key to the right of the one I meant to type. That is, I get an "M" instead of an "N", a "Z" when I intended to shift into uppercase, and so on. One might argue that I just need to get used to this teensy keyboard, but I might argue that a good user interface should get used to me. Is there anything that can be done?
I made an android application with googlemap api, and draw some 16x16 png (about 200 count) on overlay. When I move or zoom on/in mapview, "out of memory" error occurs very often.
I also used the googlemap appication in my htc itself. Seams that it uses about 14+MB memmory, and never happens "out of memory".
How to save memmory usage in a googlemap api, or how to enlarge android api memmory limit.
I have a very simple app showing current Position using GPS-Provider in emulator. (Location is being picked up from emulator Control). If I send any updated location, the new location also getting picked (showing toast) and able to animate to new point. I'm working behind a firewall (proxy enabled). - App is showing the MapView but background is Grey with line-Grids (not real google maps visible) - Proxy is working fine. What can be the reason for actual maps not getting visible? Do we need to get access 'enabled' for any kind of URL (which might getting blocked by firewall)?
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi, i have a googlemap app that displays two items (itemizedoverlay class) and i have a Update button. When i press the update button, i want to remove the items from the map, and put again the same items but with the new latitude and longitude values (i have a service that actualice the latitude and longitude fields that i have in sharedPreferences, and also i recibe the other position by a bundle)
what i am doing wrong? when i try my code, the items of the map doesn't be removed.... just new items appear... but i want to remove the old ones
CODE:...........
And these are my two functions:

I also tryed with invalidate() on the mapview but it doesn't works... still paint the old items...
I am able to display multiple overlayItems on Googlemap, now I want to change icon of any specific overlayItem (to show it is currently selected event). I want to do it through navigation buttons (next, previous) as on Google maps.
I am using StateListDrawable to display icons for OverlayItems. code...
Now my question is how do I change the state of any overlayItem/Icon on map when user click on one of navigation keys?
I actualice the positions of the items of mi googlemap but they only get repainted when i move or zoom the map...
I want that every time the possitions got updated then they get repainted on the map without having to move or zoom it with my finger
Invalidate is not the answer, because it makes a full repaint of all and needs to redownload the map from internet...
My code:..........................
I am working on an app that uses a GoogleMap and lots of overlays/markers. Controls and navigation is handled automatically (no direct user interaction with the map needed so far).
Things work the way I want right until the app pauses and goes into the background. When I resume the app the map has zoomed out to 0:0 and it doesn't react to animateMap or anything anymore. I can't seem to figure how I get it back to the state where it doesn't react to user interaction and actually updates with my markers and stuff..
Below are the three methods handling the map, and it doesn't seem to react on any of it after a resume.
Code:
private void setupMap(){
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.trackeractivity_map, new SupportMapFragment()).commit();[code]......

I have an app which I think could be in the featured section of the Android Market and was wondering the best way to proceed. The application is Scan2PDF Mobile which uses your phone's camera to "scan" documents and make PDF files which can be saved or emailed from the phone. The pages are enhanced and compressed and then made into a multi-page PDF. Think of it as having a scanner, photocopier and fax machine in your pocket/Sicen Scan2PDF Mobile has been on the Adroid market it is proving very popular, getting an average rating of 4.7. It is unlike any other app on the market and in our opinion would be a good candidate for the featured list - so how do we go about it?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to make TextView to break words in the middle and then move to another line, instead moving whole word that doesn't fit to the new line ? I have a width and number of lines of the TextView and a long string and want to calculate which portion of the String will fit exactly. the code is TextView vTextShort = (TextView) findViewById (R.id.story_text_partial); int lineHeight = vTextShort.getLineHeight(); int nmbLines = mesuredHeight / lineHeight; Paint mPaint = vTextShort.getPaint(); String shortTextStr = mStoryText; mStoryBreakIdx = 0; vTextShort.setLines(nmbLines ); int breakText = mPaint.breakText(mStoryText.toCharArray(), 0, mStoryText.length(), mesuredWidth, null); mStoryBreakIdx = breakText * nmbLines; It seems to calculate number of chars accurately but not accounting for the space that left after word is moved to a new line if it doesn't fit fully. And i'm looking on how to either break words in the middle or how calculate a width of the text that will fit correctly.
