I've had this problem in a few different apps now and I can't seem to find a solution.
If, in the onCreate() of an Activity, I start an activity that uses the dialog theme it doesn't draw anything to screen... the whole screen stays black. All the views are there (e.g., I can tap where an EditText should be and it'll give me the keyboard), they're just not visible. code...

With Android, I've got an application that seems calling "onCreate" every time on a new instance of an activity, because this activity is the son of an another and it finishes itself while it ends its role for one piece of data.
The calling of "onCreate" everytime seems to be re-parsing the xml to create the views and re-attaching/re-creating the listners to the code and so on. So Is there a way to "cache" an activity to be recalled everytime, without seeing it if we click on "back" in the mobile devie? it's like having it really hidden (not accessible with the back button) and destroyed only if it's necessary.
i just got the phone today. But when i make a phone call the whole screen turns black and doesnt respond to any buttons/touch, i can't hang up either. But the conversation is still running i can speak and hear the other person. only when the other person hangs up the screen returns back to normal.

bought it from everbuying
I bought a cheap (all I could afford) jelly bean Chinese Star N9776 phone 6" and on the whole have to report its great for the money. The only problem is that when I make a call or receive a call the ALS_PS sensor I think turns the screen off and it will not come back on until the call ends.
I have searched for answers and have found that this is a common problem. One thread suggested that if you enter the boot menu with the volume and power key you can sellect an option to disable this feature. However the menu is in Chinese !!
I have HDC Galaxy S4 exynos. I have a problem, when I call out the screen goes black, and I charge my battery full, but it very fast discharge or when I restart my phone, it show my battery percentage 10-20%.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm not very familiar with the android SDK yet. I have an application (game), which is developed mainly using the NDK, and uses egl to render. i have an activity which handles the egl swapbuffer and runs the games native main loop, pretty straight forward I guess.
Now I have made another activity which host a TableLayout containing an EditText as well as a button (simply for text-input later used by the game). I spawn this activity from my main activity using startActivityForResult. The small problem I'm having now is that I can't manage to make this "popup" activity to have a background, so my paused game will reside in the background, with the various widgets just overlaid. This is not very pretty in my opinion, and I would like to at least have a solid background color for my spawned activity while it's active. I *could* just simply go into some state in the games main loop which clears the gl-screen just before I spawn the new activity. But I don't like this solution and it's a tad more work then I'm prepared to put in just at this time in the project. I'm pretty sure there is some simple way to just set a background color somehow, I just can't find *any* way to do it, I've looked around in the SDK resources and tried to search for any hints towards this, but i'm just not familiar enough with the java SDK to find what i'm looking for.
On a side note I would also like to be able to center the EditText widget as well as the button on the screen once the Activity is active, I haven't looked very deeply into it yet, but from a quick glance of the documentation I couldn't really find any suitable positioning methods in the tablelayout class. But as I said, haven't looked very hard. Can probably solve that one easy, but i'm just throwing this in as well :)
I simply can't find a solid RSS feed reader and widget (mostly the widget).I've tried NewsRoom, NewsRob, BlueRSS, DoggCatcher etc, and they all
1) are missing a widget,
2) are ugly,
3) are missing some basic functionality.
Can everyone please share what RSS feed reader app and widget they use?Preferably one that can sync with Google Reader but not necessarily,just an extra. I'm more interested in the widget, also.
I'm doing an APP that shows some dialogs. Those dialogs are Alert dialogs, and when they are being showed if I change the orientation of the mobile I lost them...they are not being kept on the screen.

All of my Activities are started from one ActivityGroup which creates Menu on MENU button press. Problem is that when I open SubMenu or Dialog (which is created and displayed by ActivityGroup) my current foreground activity makes onPause, onStop and onDestroy, and when I close this submenu (using "back" key) or dialog (by "ok" button for ex.) I don't have any response (onCreate, onResume) from any of my activities registered in LocalActivityManager.

I decided to share the solution i found to the problem of Android not supporting real modal dialogs.The solution was to draw the dialog by myself. :-( Well, at least worked fine, besides the problem that its a bit ugly.
View 17 Replies View RelatedI have tried to make a series of dialogs, like a questionnaire, that the user needs to answers a series of questions selecting one or more checkboxes. I can do one, just fine, but when I try to make more than one question (lets say 10), it does not show, or show all the dialogs. I tried using dialogs or new acitivities.
So, my problem is I have multiple questions, one to be presented each time, and I need to wait for one to be responded so I can ask the next one. How do I accomplish this?
My first attempt was with a dialog box... but obviously it got all the boxes stacked in each other:
CODE:.................
I intended to show a dialog in a service process, then I tried to use the AlertDialog but got the below error message: WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application The reason seems to be that the dialog is not used in a application context (activity should be fine?) Was there any way that can solve this problem?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm facing the same head-scratching moment similar to what this person (from Jan 2008) experienced when I realize that there is no cancel button in Android's progress dialog or spinners. It is now July 2009 and I've just installed the cupcake version of Android. Has this thing changed ? If not, are you adding a cancel button into the dialogs and how do you do it ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI wonder what is the right way to implement this? Could anybody advice whether my solution is correct?
So:
Activity is created
User clicks on button and dialog is launched (Dialog, not dialog styled activity)
User opens keyboard
we have onSaveInstanceState called where we save that our dialog was opened and all respective dialog input
we have onRestoreInstanceState and here we check whether dialog was shown, recreate the dialog with respective input.
Is it the right approach? or there is smth. that is done by Android and I am doing some redundant actions.
I use the AlertDialog class in my application. By default, these alert dialogs have a transparent background. I'm trying to use an opaque background instead, very unsuccessfully.
These are my styles:
CODE:....................
I applied the "MyOpaqueActivity" style successfully for whole activities (the window background is changed to "my_background"), but it doesn't work for alert dialogs within those activities. The "alertDialogStyle" attribute and my "MyOpaqueAlertDialog" style don't seem to have any effect.
So how can I change the background of these alert dialogs?
I am trying to create a map application and I need to do something similar to what Google Maps does. I want to open show a list of locations and when user taps on them I want to show a dialog.
I was able to do it till here. But now when the user clicks on the dialog that opened I want to show another acttivity with the details of that item that they clicked on.
I tried to start a new intent but it gives me an error.
Here is what I am doing

Why am I getting this error and how can I resolve this and open a new activity? Also where can I find the source code for the google maps on android?
In my activity, I show a dialog under some condition like this:

My question is what do I need to do to ensure there is no resource leak? From the logcat, i see there is a case where it said a window is leaking or something like that.
I had a little time with the captivate today and noticed it has 4(i think) horizontal scrolling screens for apps. What happens when you fill those? Does it automatically add another one or what?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI've read on Reto Meier's blog that he doesn't recommend the use of modal "Loading" dialogs in Android applications. Is this a general consensus among developers? If I have a login screen what should I display when the user tries to sign in? Until now, I have used a "Signing in" indeterminate progress dialog. Should I use the application's progress bar? Should I use a Toast? And, in the general case, when should I use dialogs and when not to?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am rendering an EditText as one element of a list-style AlertDialog (which is backed by the default ListView implementation). I sort of expected that this circumstance would not change the behavior of EditText, but it does: a click on the EditText does not spawn the soft keyboard anymore.
After an hour of messing around with focus settings and click handlers I got fed up and debugged into InputMethodManager.showSoftInput(), and found this:
CODE:....................
The problem here is that mServedView is the ListView that's backing the dialog, while view is the EditText, and ListView.checkInputConnectionProxy() does simply return false in the default implementation of ListView (to be overridden by subclasses).
Worse, I couldn't find a way to set a custom ListView which allows proxying IME reuqests; AlertDialog.Builder.setView() accepts a custom ListView, but this is not the ListView that InputMethodManager sees.
i want to display a dialog in my android application where certain TextViews in the layout need to have content set during runtime. while showing the dialog itself is no problem at all, accessing the TextViews via TextView.setText(String) crashes the application.
