Are there statistics as to what percentage of users are using a screen resolution. I am looking for something like the platform versions breakdown Google provided a few months ago. What I am wondering is if its worth the extra effort to ensure proper display of my apps in QVGA or other odd resolutions.

We've all heard the horror stories (I just bought my Desire and the battery lasts for about 4 hours!) and the fanboy wankery (I get at least 3 days of heavy use!) So today I unplugged my Desire at about 6am and set off for work. It's 7pmish now and here's some stuff you may like to look at. I have 3G disabled, Sync on manual, no "live" widgets (just WiFi and bluetooth) live wallpaper (nexus) and screen brightness on auto. Here's the battery status (rounded up from 25% according to Battery Info in the Testing app)
The breakdown of usage:
My phone was idle for 9 hours and 45 mins:
The Display was on for a mere 2hours and 46 mins
With only 1.5 hours of WiFi:
And 30 mins of calls:
So, that'll be less than 3 hours of usage.
Does anyone know of a way of viewing a breakdown of phone memory usage? If it starts getting full (which presumably won't take long given the measly amount we have to begin with) I'll want to know what to delete or trim to free up space.
SMS messages are stored on the phone memory, aren't they?
Just noticed the new ratings breakdown feature in the Comments section of the Dev Console. Really interesting to see the breakdown.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a program that should work on Android 1.5, but when it's run on newer devices with higher resolution screens, it should support the full resolution and not emulate a lower resolution screen. As far as I can tell from the documentation, this should be simple.
I just specify
code:.........
The problem is that if I tell Eclipse to compile for 1.5, it refuses to accept this. It reports an error (targetSdkVersion is an unknown tag) and refuses to compile or run. If I tell it to compile for 1.6 it works fine, of course. But if I then try to install on a 1.5 AVD, the program immediately crashes with a java.lang.VerifyError. I'm clearly missing something simple. How do I get it to compile an apk that works under 1.5, but still includes the targetSdkVersion tag?
How do I convert phone resolution Bootanimation to tablet resolution?
I have 4 boot animations that I want to convert to work on my Nexus 10 full screen.
Also, how to be able to edit [URL] to show 10 instead of 4 or completly remove the number so it works nicely on both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 10.
I'm going to exchange my Cappy at bestbuy today. I had 100% battery when I woke up, make an 3 min call, browsed for about 15 minutes and I'm down to 70%. I normally have to charge it 2 or more times a day. The battery usage thing shows display using 70%. That seems a bit high. Its on its lowest brightness setting too
Then the GPS thing. it would be nice if that worked. I'm going to love this phone one way or another!
My phone was built on 7/10/2010, the battery was 7/4/2010. Is there an easy way to tell if its a newer build or not? Does anyone know the IEMI breakdown?
I don't know if it's my phone or what but when I look up the Other Usage on my phone, it shows it "Running" more than 2/3 of the time.And on Network Usage, "Android System" and "Media" use a great deal of the phone as well.I think this might have to do with my "android.process.acore" crashing every once in a while when it's asleep. Based on everyone's feedback I might have to return the Moment for a third time.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to alter the default screen resolution of the Android emulator (and by extension, the Android device) to work at 1700x1200. In other words, I need the screen to be able to display unique points over that range. I have set the dimensions in my layout file, yet the device still defaults to 320x480. I've set different dpi densities, but to no avail.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an application which is basically a surfaceview, where height/ width is set to fill_parent. I run it on a htc desire, but when I check the size of the view (or the canvas I obtain), it says 340x533, so some kind of scaling seems to be done. Also, I load a bitmap, which seems to be scaled. Do I have to do anything special to run my app in full resolution?

I have make a 2D game that have 480x320 resolution (for example the background image is so)...but if I try it on the emultator all go ok, but If I try it on Nexus the game is more little on the screen. How I can say to the game to be always max size on each screen?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have tried a while ago to use these values to be able to have 2 different builds to cover all resolutions on Android Market: <supports-creens android:smallScreens="false" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:anyDensity="true" /> Unfortunately it did not worked. Although it is recommended to have one big application for all resolutions sometime it is not possible due to some time and resources constraints. The goal is to have 2 different applications Game and Game HD on the market and Game to be visible only for 240x320/320x480 devices and Game HD to be visible for 480x800 devices.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWith Android, you can define different resources for different phone attribute by naming res directories appropriately. I need to be able to support different layouts for 480x800 and 480x854. I figured I could have one set of resources stored in the layout-hdpi-v4 directory and another in layout-long-hdpi-v4. However, both resolution seem to think that they are long (at least based on the emulator, which I understand may not reflect devices accurately). Is there another way in which I can distinguish between the two resolutions/aspect ratios?

However, it seems there is only on resolution available 640x480, while the native camera support 8MB resolution.Any permission or extra param needed to get larger resolution option? It'd much appreciated if anyone can help on this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to create a very graphically intensive android application. Almost all of the UI is based on bitmaps and I would like to support as many different devices as possible and to have the app look great in all of them.Is it possible to embed different resolutions for each image and have a different image displayed on each device. I am aware of stuff like hdpi folders etc. as well has units like dip etc., but that still leaves too many variables as to how the image is displayed. I would like to not have the images scaled at all to avoid losing image quality.For instance on my high resolution device I would like an image to be exactly 100px and then on a medium resolution device I would like a lower resolution image to display and be exactly 80px. If I use display independent units, I cannot ensure that the images will be of a particular size.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am currently starting a game engine in Android, first forray onto the platform and have the basics in place however i am unsure of the best way to approach resolution independence when using SurfaceView to draw graphics.
Looking for pointers as to how to keep the game / sprites etc all looking the same independent of the screen, obviously it wouldn't be efficient to scale all the sprites every frame or store many variations for differing resolutions
My current phone is 240*320 and I know that's definitely not enough, but I was wondering if someone with a HVGA and someone with a WVGA could take a screenshot showing the same webpage (phandroid, perhaps?) so it's possible to see the actual difference in use.
I really want a WVGA screen, but since it might be a while before they're released I'm considering just getting a Hero, but it would be sad to buy it and be disappointed in it.
I am trying to implement pinch zoom and it is working but when i zoom out and then zoom in again the resolution of the image(bitmap) decreases. I am aware that this is just normal behavior of my code and i want to know how to do this with right way. here is the relevant code :
Matrix matrix = new Matrix() ;
float scale = newDist / oldDist;
matrix.postScale(scale, scale, mid.x, mid.y);
int width = mutable.getWidth() ;
int height = mutable.getHeight() ;
mutable = Bitmap.createBitmap(mutable, 0, 0, width, height, matrix, false);
I want to publish an application that specifically runs only on 800x480 or higher screens. I don't want users with 480x320, 320x240 etc devices to get it from Android Market. How do I configure it? Market Filters seems to have the answer but I still don't get it.
