View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to implement both recent suggestions and custom suggesions in global search in the same application. They both use the same path in the provider so it doesn't seem like it is possible to return different results for them. For example just recent searches for suggestions and real search results in the Quick Search Box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm building the search in an application and need to have a way of putting the suggestions which I get from my server as a JSON-array into the list of suggestions which is displayed below the Quick Search Box. Is there an easy way to have the quick search box read such resources? Currently I am trying to use a ContentProvider, but the interface methods clearly indicate one is supposed to be querying a database to get the suggestions. I guess using a ContentProvider is the correct way if you are searching the data which is stored inside the application. I am not so sure however, that it is the right way if you need to query a network resource.
It makes no sense for me to save the suggestions I get from the network to a local database, as the suggestions and their hit rate will vary from time to time. Anyone had this issue? Or can point me in the direction of a similar question? I could not find questions here on stack that mentioned network suggestions.
I have implemented an activity that retrieves data from a web service and display it in the AutoCompleteTextView. This has been working quite well.I'm interested in displaying a spinning animation while the data is being retrieved (The same effect like the Quick Search Box) I try to figure out how the QSB is doing it (10x Open Source!) but couldn't find any place where the spinner image is being put/set/drawn onto the EditText control.

View 21 Replies View RelatedJust wanted to let you all know about my new app. It's called Searchify, it's free, and it hooks in to the Quick Search Box (on Android 1.6 or higher) to let you do all sorts of things. Searching lets you perform translations, calculations, unit conversions, wikipedia searches, calendar entry and more just by typing in searches. Some of the things you can do with it: Unit converter: type a quantity (e.g. "10 pints" or "5 oz") into the search box to see a list of conversions. Calendar entry: Type an event in text (e.g. "tue 3pm meeting" or "tomorrow 3pm - thursday 5am event @ John's") to add it to your calendar. Translator: Type "translate" then a word or phrase in any language to see translations into languages of your choice.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to make my app implement the built in quick search, similar to how it is done in ApiDemos' "app/search/invoke search". I have tried everything from trying to follow different examples, to copying the code exactly as it is in ApiDemos. All I've found for the former have been concerned with older versions of the SDK, and simply not worked. As for the stuff that I can actually run and see working in ApiDemos, I've tried copying the following
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchInvoke.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchQueryResults.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchSuggestionSampleProvider.java
res/layout/search_invoke.xml res/layout/search_query_results.xml
res/values/arrays.xml res/values/strings.xml res/xml/searchable.xml
And everything under "Search Samples" in AndroidManifest.xml
This copying gets me a view that looks exactly like the one I'm facing when running ApiDemos, but when I click the search button, in the quick search box, Android always just opens up a browser window, with Google search results for the given query. I simply cannot find the critical component in ApiDemos that tells android that I want to use my own custom code for handling the search request. Both documentation and other online resources seem very lacking when it comes to this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to search through my phone via the search button (bottom right), everything but my music comes up. Contacts, apps, etc, but no music. have it set to search for music, but still no dice. the weird thing, is that things like "facebook_pop.mp3" will show up in my search results, just none of the mp3s I uploaded. If it matters, my music is stored on "phone storage" in a folder labeled "Music".

How do you search songs on Music Player?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis has been a rather annoying issue for quite a while. Whenever I use the commands like "Listen to (Artist or Song)" or "Play (Artist or Song)" it never seems to recognize it. Instead it just does web search of what I said, I'm not sure where the problem is in it though. I have Poweramp and Play Music installed with plenty of music on file.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if anyone has been able to make Voice Search on the Droid launch the music player and play specific music. I went into "Settings", "Search", "Searchable items" under "Quick Search Box", and selected "Music Artists, albums, and tracks" so I think voice search can search the local device for music. Try as I may, I can't make search for music on the device. Admittedly, I'm used to the MS WinMo/Sync system where I can say something like "Play Artist Korn" (like in the commercial). I'm just wondering if I'm missing the "magic keywords" to make the voice search do what I want or am I just whistling dixie.This would come in VERY handy when the Droid is in the Car Dock (I HIGHLY recommend one of these btw.I just wish they'd integrated a power adapter with it.). That way, I can launch music via voice, and not plunk around with a very small icon on the screen.

In the stock music player in Android 2.1 (at least), the artist, album, and track name of the currently playing track are long clickable, which brings up a context menu "Search for NN with:", with links to different apps.UPDATE I've managed to extract the logs from my own device, doing a search for an artist, and selecting Google Listen to complete the action:03-02 11:59: 34.551 I/ActivityManager(86): Displayed activity com.android.music/.
