As known, when using the setContentView() method, a view can be displayed on screen.
My question is whether there is a way to receive an event when the view is actually displayed on screen (since it takes some time for the view actually being displayed after the setContentView() method has been called).

I have a text view and launched soft keypad above it. Now what I want to do is that when the user presses the HARDWARE CLR button, the activity should receive the CLR key event. But my activity can't receive the event. Just soft keypad disappeared. Is it normal behavior? Is there any way to receive the hardware key event?

Also, I've noticed on the Messaging app, that the Yahoo icon is missing the purple Y. The icon is just a generic looking envelope. Something has changed with the account. Battery pulls or logging in or out of the account have not helped either.
Currently, I have a layout which contains a Button, a TextView and an EditText. When the layout is displayed, the focus will be automatically put on the EditText, which will trigger the keyboard to show up on Android phone. It is not what I want. Is there any way that I can set the focus on TextView or on nothing when a layout is displayed?

Scenario:Three buttons enabled by on click event.
-I am using sliding drawer... on which no of buttons are there. -When sliding drawer is opened...its overlapping the preveously defined three buttons.
My problem is... when i am clicking on sliding drawer ... the below button is activated and accordingly it goes to next activity...
Means ... i expect if one view is on top of another view... the lower view should not work.
I need to make a service that capture all touch events, not in a specific view or when an specific activity is open. This service is started when the boot is completed (and I have an app to stop/play this service when I want it). So it write something (in a Toast) when the user touch any place in the screen.
Can I do this? Or only in specifics things (with OnTouchListener and adding specifics views, for example)?
Instead of finding the button (as per the id specified in xml) i.e
CODE:.....
Is it possible to set the Listener class name directly in the xml definition. Most of the time dealing with id's for attaching listeners is affecting our productivity.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf you want a button to provide haptic feedback (ie, the phone vibrates very briefly so you can feel that you really pushed the button), what's the standard way to do that?
It seems you can either explicitly set an onClick() event and call the vibrate() function, giving a number of milliseconds to vibrate, or you can set hapticFeedbackEnabled in the view.
The documentation seems to indicate that the latter only works for long-presses or virtual on-screen keys: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#performHapticFeedback(int)
If that's right, then I need to either make my button a virtual on-screen key or manually set the onClick() event.
Also, if I want the vibrating to happen immediately when the user's finger touches the button, as opposed to when their finger "releases" the button, what's the best way to accomplish that?

I have a splash screen/loading screen that has .setVisibility() to GONE right after the draw call of my large bitmap is completed. The problem is the splash screen takes a bit to popup which i believe is due to the main activity booting up and doing CPU intensive applications on first run. Is there a way to get my splash screen displayed ASAP? Would it be ok if i had it in a different thread maybe? The splash screen is just a bitmap with a progressBar right below it. My layout is xml based so i cant see myself using setContentView.

We are developing an application that requires a download of a music file (mp3). We are using the Browser Activity for the same.
The Browser Activity is invoked from the application and the download url is passed to it, like: startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(downloadurl)));
However, after downloading, on the download list page, if we press the Back button, a blank white screen is displayed. Only after we press the Back button a second time on this white screen, the application screen is displayed. This happens because the Browser Activity view is displayed before the actual downloading starts.
This is an issue in the application flow. We need to manage the flow in such a way that the 'Back' key press on the download list view will take the control to the application screen instead of the white screen.
Today I am looking for a way to mimic the behavior I know from my HTC Hero's lock screen: the calendar and alarm clock can put text & drawables there to inform about an upcoming event or an expired alarm. The lock screen remains there in that it must be dragged down to dismiss the shown event and there might also be a Snooze button.
But, first question: is this default Android stuff or HTC Sense specific only??
Second question: If it is a common Android thing, why can't I find anything in Google's Android documentation for the topics "lockscreen" or "lock screen" that comes close to my question? Where's the API for it?
My problem is: I want to inform the user immediately - even if I try a standard notification, the user with a locked screen will have to unlock it and drag down the notifications list to see & clear what's going on. sigh Putting an endlessly playing notification sound there is a hassle as it takes at least two swipes down to stop the sound playing!
I was wondering if anyone understood how to make your application be displayed when you unlock the screen. I have an application where the user turns on a Bluetooth device, it connects to the phone, and the user should be presented with a UI. Having them hunt for the app or using the notification menu is not a workable option (too much work and not the obvious behavior).
The problem is that:
When the screen is unlocked:
- you can popup the activity from the background service when Bluetooth connects to a device
- User is happy because the UI is right there
When the screen is locked:
- The application gets started but is destroyed
- User unlocks the phone and nothing is there but the homescreen
One work around would be to disable the keyguard when the application gets woken up but the nuclear option is a pretty bad option. I know the standard Android assumption is that you shouldn't do this. In the normal case this behavior is fine, but in this case I explicitly did something I want the phone to respond without adding more work for the user to do. As per Google's guidelines if you don't like this behavior there can be an option for you to turn this off or you can not use the application.
A few more details, so after looking at this a bit more the problem isn't necessarily that you can't have an activity running when the screen is locked, unlock and expect it to be waiting. That does work if you do something like the following: lock your device run an app through Eclipse while the phone is locked/off unlock and it will be waiting for you.
But in the case the Activity is already running and I'm brining up a new window (which happens to be a transparent one, saying you're connected and asking what they want to do).
The problem is that it gets killed
CODE:..................
The setup here is as follows:
MyBackgroundService is a serivce that handles Bluetooth state (waits for connections, turns on Bluetooth if the user starts the app, etc.). It triggers a popup BackgroundPOPUP activity that runs a ViewFlipper.
MyBackgroundService starts BackgroundPOPUP through an intent.
BackgroundPOPUP is an activity with a Translucent theme (Theme.Translucent to be precise), it shows a ViewFlipper with some instructions and presents some options.
Step 1: I am subclassing WebView and rendering html content properly. The intial content is very small with a div and image /link This is displayed in a LInear Layout along with a TextView and ListView. That is my first screen/activity of the application.
Step 2: When I click on a link on this webview, it goes through the webViewclient and expands to full screen to fit the content of the requested page.
After Step 2, I am not able to go back to my activity screen once the content is displayed. When I click on the back button to getback to my activity screen close my activity and goes to the phone's applications desktop. (i.e goes out of my application).
Step 3: In order to fix this issue, I stopped setting my own subclasssed WebViewClient. After doing this, the it seems to render the clicked page in a webView as subactivity. Now When I click on backbutton, it goes back to the activity screen. But, the issue now is, I am not catch event when a link is clicked. How can I catch click events in this case.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI use Google Calendar to organize my life, and rely on the email reminders to keep me from forgetting events and to know when to act on them. With 2.1 I had no issues, Google Calendar was synced to the stock HTC calendar app on EVO. I had the calendar set to view in "agenda" mode. Now since updating to Froyo, when I open the calendar app in agenda mode, the events have bell icons to the right of them, this is new. If I tap the event to open it and view the details of the event, when I return to the main agenda viewing mode of the calendar the bell is gone.
The phone then syncs with Google Calendar, and deletes all of the scheduled Email Reminders that I have set up for the event. This was not a problem with 2.1. No bells showed to the right of the events in agenda mode, and I could tap into the event to view the details without deleting email reminders on Google Calendar. With Froyo, by simply tapping the event to view the details it is effectively wiping out all reminders, rendering the calendar useless. This making me wish I had never updated to Froyo. The calendar and reminders are the single most important function on my phone, and with Froyo it seems to be incredibly flawed.
