My Gmail account works great, and I have my aol and yahoo acounts set up no problem (well the yahoo was a little problem but got it to work so thats all that matters). I have 2 other email accounts that no matter what I do I can not get them to work. One is my works email which is handled by a company called network solutions. I can get the incoming server setup fine but I can not get the outgoing to work. The other is my school email which is some sort of msn email account variation (username@email.itt-tech.edu which i log into through msn.com). I cant get anything to work for this accuont.

How do I do this? I go to my mail.xml using eclipse as my ide and go to layout view and I now get a NullPointerException so I can't even drag stuff onto the layout anymore.
I would like to create a custom Control in my Android App. It will be a circular control with some smaller moveable circles that will indicate a specific value.
Is there a way to realize this?
Are there at least some nice Tutorials where i can read how to create a custom control?
Is it somehow possible that instead of:
Button btnNextWord = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.btnNextWord);
Eclipse automatically generates for me something like:
Button btnNextWord = this.btnNextWord;
or
Button btnNextWord = R.id.getBtnNextWord(this);?
I want to zoom text that is displayed at center of screen as per user choice. How can I achieve this ? Using pinch multitouch cannot be tested on emulator and I want something that I can test on Android emulator.
Can I use zoom in and out controls to control only text view for my layout ?Or Can I use webview to contain a text as webview has default zoom in out buttons ?
I am developing an application, and I want to make it work on different resolutions and different densities. My question is how to position the controls through code such a way that it works on all resolutions.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am learning how to program on Android phone. However I am unsure how to make my application work for the different screen sizes and resolutions.
I read the tutorial on the android site and still unsure how to do it.
First I know there are different files so could make a layout for each of the sizes but my problem is most of the screen needs to be dynamically created so there would not be much to put in these files.
So I am not sure how to android to re size dynamic controls based on the screen size.
I have also read it is bad practice to make controls in anything but the xml file as it separates view logic and programming logic. However they never talk about if you need to make these controls dynamically what you should do.
So is there some other way to do it that is considered good practice?
Edit
I get this error when I try to run the switcher application.

To your question: It's dynamic because
the buttons in my example grow and
shrink depending on one of the 3
possibles sizes, because they use
scaled pixel (You probably know that
you don't have to deal with screen
sizes itself). So a scaled pixel
compared to a real a pixel has a size
of 0.75px, 1.0px or 1.5px. Android
automatically and dynamically adjusts
it to the actual size. So you don't
have to care about this in your code.
So if I use scaled pixels then I don't have to worry about different screen sizes?
At the moment I don't know an example
except in games where you have to deal
with "real" pixel. But if you want use
it, multiply it with the value of the
current density. This is your "ratio".
I don't have the example with the ball
anymore but I have another which uses
the same technics. You can run it on
different screen sizes and you will
see that the buttons will always fit
into the layout. You could use the
same technics for your intents. In
this example you can scroll with the
"Scrn" buttons from one view to
another of 4 views. (At the moment
they all have a black background so
you don't see that they are different
views). The "Enter" button exits the
test. It's an Eclipse project. You can
download
So if I want to deal with ratio then I use real pixels and not scaled pixels? What advantage does this give me?
will scaled pixels work with changing from portrait to landscape( ie will it fill up the new found space)?
Finally should I make the controls now through code or is there another way? As I said I am getting data from a webservice that must look like this
checkbox label label
It can be one record or 10,000 records I don't know so these have to be appended to something that is like a window panel( the controls in there get a scroll bar).
I am able to play a video using VideoView in combination with MediaController. The problem when I started my activity , a bar appears below with media controllers play,pause,rewind ,progress bar representing video. But it disappears after displaying 1 second. Then I how can I make this media Controller bar with controls to display as long as my video plays so that I can pause,rewind my video.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLike many, I've had a real problem with a loose headphone jack on my Droid. As the jack gets moved (bumped in my pocket, for example) it causes the music player to turn on/off, which is super annoying. To describe it better, if I were to hold onto the headphone end piece where it connects and move it around, I can trigger the music on and off...it must be moving the connector inside somehow. Had the Droid replaced once. New Droid - same issue. New idea --- Is there any way to entirely disable the headphone's ability to control to Droid? My thought is that if I can turn that off altogether, it will no longer be a concern that it's loose.

View 7 Replies View RelatedDoes the Droid have individual volume profiles for the different devices (like bluetooth, speaker, headset, headphone jack)? My old phones would 'remember' the volume level for the different devices used. Its very annoying to have one single volume setting. For example, I usually have the speaker phone volume all the way up, then when I answer a call, the earpiece volume is deafening. Same when I plug in my wired headset at home.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to set the physical buttons on the side and front to do things when the screen is off like go to the next song or volume up? It would be great for when I am listening to music that way I don;t always have to turn the screen on and unlock just to turn the volume up or down.

I just want to be able to pause/play/skip from the pattern lock screen.I am okay with binding physical buttons to this task if that's what it takes.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running Sapphire 1.1.1 and like it so far. Coming from Cyanogen, I'm mostly interested in the music volume rocker controls for skipping through songs when the screen is off. I know the problem with Sapphire has typically been that the volume rocker controls sometimes continually skip through songs when the button is pressed, but mine seems to only start the current song over. Anyone else have this problem? The lock screen controls work fine, but I'd like to get the volume rocker working correctly so I can keep my eyes on the road when driving.

Anybody have any success with this or have an updated version ready for froyo? Also, is there a way to get the CyanogenMod volume up/down music controls when the screen is off onto BB v4? It's really the only thing that I miss. I don't know the "rules" of ROM's sharing, etc. certain scripts or whatever.
View 2 Replies View RelatedTried looking around but couldn't find what i was looking for/people didn't respond to the other posts... so is it just me or is it super hard looking for a good music player...
currently I'm using cubed but i dont like it. people swear by it but im not following. its seems a bit clunky, it scrolls terribly, and i dont like the lockscreen controls.
for my question. i can deal with a music player like cubed BUT I'm looking for a music player with lockscreen controls that doesn't disable the timer/alarm notices. the lockscreen controls with cubed is $#!t. you press "unlock" even by accident and it unlocks (dont like that). and it doesn't even show you the time, so i have to completely unlock the phone and lock it again just to view the time. AND i cant see when my next alarm is going to go off. really inconvenient.
Does anyone know of a music player that has lockscreen controls that does not disable the clock/alarm notices when you wake up the phone before you unlock it?
I'm attempting to create a method that will allow me to retrieve a value from the last row of a database, and then insert it into an EditText field. (This is a value that the user will not change all that often, so it would be helpful if when they do set it, it stays set when they come back to it).
My method, based on a similar method I have for getting the total of a specific column, is as such. code...
If I run the program without this statement, it works fine and the value saves to the db. As soon as I try to run it with this, I get a force close. Any suggestions?
So I use my X to stream pandora/slacker and the droid media player through my ford sync bluetooth system. I am having two separate issues I am hoping someone can comment on.
The first is that pretty much every other time I try to stream music I do not get any sound. I have to reboot my phone for it to work. Everything is paired correctly and volume it turned up etc. This is my 2nd X and they both did the same thing. Happens on 2.1 and 2.2 leak
Second is that my steering wheel controls randomly work. Sometimes the music player doesn't skip sometimes it does. Also recently if I have pandora or slacker playing and I press the skip forward button on my steering wheel the droid music player starts and I get both slacker/pandora and the droid music player playing at the same time. I should also mention i am on the 2.2 leak.
Just got off of a live chat with "Taylor" from VZW and asked her if she knew what time it would be available.

I have a gmail account. I have My Verizon and Backup Assistant but what will I have to do beyond activating it?
I'm hoping I can accomplish this after buying the X on line as my corp. store charges $50.00 more than on line which is another thread/question.
I placed my DINC order Monday and was completely content until my coworker just walked in w/ his Droid X this morning. My biggest qualm beforehand was the size, but now that I hold it in my hands it's not so bad.I've never had an Android device but everyone tells me HTC Sense will blow me away. I need you all to convince me that the X will blow me away (if you do I'll swing by after work and cancel the DINC order and grab a Droid X). I'm not worried about specs and stuff, just user interface. What can I expect to get with the X?
View 15 Replies View RelatedIts offical. I spoke with Verizon today and they confirmed the news we've heard. If you are tired of waiting for the Inc. You will have the opportunity to switch your order to a Droid X. This is huge news. Inc is slated to be shipped until end of the month first of next month. So whos going to swtich? If the review is as great as Inc. Consider me gone! Im going with the Droid X.
