Android :: The Difference Resolution Makes ?
Jan 30, 2010
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.

Is it just me and my device, or is the Google Plus app rubbish for everyone? Jitters and lags just when scrolling down the feed. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S3, and the problem persists across ROMs, and enabling/disabling "Force GPU rendering" makes no difference.

Is there any difference between the back up that ROM manager makes and Nandroid? Reboots to what looks like the same screen. Also, will either of these restore my home screen icon configs?

I 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?

So I factory reset a while ago, after 2.2 really bogged my phone down or so it seemed. So I deleted all apps and when I went to install my favorite ringtone app (Mabilo Ringtones), it was gone. I don't know if they are getting rid of the app all together or if they are in the works of making a brand new app but I'm pretty bummed cause I used to love the app.
Now the question is, what ringtone app should I use? I like to download the ringtones already made instead of editing my own (that takes too much work right?! lol)
I downloaded one called Ringlert or something like that and its really similar but everytime I assign the ringtone as default ringtone it makes everything silent for some reason? What is everyone using?

I have an app that contains a custom view, and in it I want to use a custom font. Unfortunately, this results in really ugly text being rendered.
My custom view extends Surface (and just realized: is this a bad idea), and I draw the text with the following code:
CODE:...............
The result looks like this:
Not fun. I'm using p.setFlags(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG) but even with that the result is just fudgly.
So, is there a way to improve custom TTF rendering, or should I just stick to the system fonts?

I have a ListView in which each item has a complex layout that contains, at some point, a TextView with android:inputType="text" and android:ellipsize="marquee". My problem is that inputType="text" does something that renders the whole listview item un-clickable.
I've tried:
CODE:........................
Nothing worked.
The reason why I use android:inputType="text" on a TextView is so that it becomes single-line and android:ellipsize="marquee" actually works. I've done my homework: android:singleLine is deprecated
android:lines="1", as suggested here, doesn't work, the text still wraps, you just don't get to see the second line, so the marquee effect does not appear.
or is it? My Ctrl+Space in Eclipse says this about android:singleLine (emphasis mine):
Constrains the text to a single horizontally scrolling line instead of letting it wrap onto multiple lines, and advances focus instead of inserting a newline when you press the enter key. * Deprecated: This attribute is deprecated and is replaced by the textMultiLine flag in the inputType attribute. Use caution when altering existing layouts, as the default value of singeLine is false (multi-line mode), but if you specify any value for inputType, the default is single-line mode. (If both singleLine and inputType attributes are found, the inputType flags will override the value of singleLine.). [boolean]
However, the docs do not say anything about any deprecation.

I've got the following layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button android:id="@+id/back"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="Back" />
<Button android:id="@+id/page_number"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="1 / 100" />
<Button android:id="@+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="Next" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Which results in the following. How do I make the buttons fit the screen and stop the WebView pushing them off?

Why is this button changing color to orange when clicked: <Button android:background="@android:drawable/btn_plus" ...>
But this one is not? <Button android:background="@drawable/ic_btn_round_plus" ...>
Found another type of button (text and image) that changes color to orange when clicked
without having to create a selector: <Button android:text="List" android:drawableTop="@drawable/list" ...>

I need in my application to make the device vibrate during the playback of a sound. I did something like this: Vibrator vibrator=(Vibrator)context.getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE); ... vibrator.vibrate(mp.getDuration()); but it makes the application crash. What am I doing wrong? Does the emulator support the vibration?

How can I disable quick launch when the browser is active? For the time being I have just removed the associations in quick launch.

I implemented a gallery, and inside it I have many listviews from left to right. For some reason Gallery works great with all views but not with listview. With listview, when scrolling on the gallery, sometimes I get little jumps.
Some notes: The gallery uses an adapter to find out what to show, and then the listview is created based on the adapter

I am using Intents to switch between activities in my Android app. I am putting data in the Intent for use in the next activity. When I switch the phone between landscape and portrait modes, the values passed from the intent are lost and I get a NullPointerException.
Can someone please tell me what could be wrong.
There's a lot of code to post it entirely. But if someone needs to look at specific parts of code, I can post it here.
Edit
I solved the issue of state not being saved. But another problem I faced is that none of the buttons on the screen work after the orientation has been changed. On button press, I get this warning in LogCat

I wanted to change the frame around my Dialog. So I set up a style...
And yay! I get my new frame. However, the parent window disappears (goes black).
Having a normal dialog: <activity android:name=".MyActivity" android:theme="@android:style/ Theme.Dialog"> keeps the parent window visible.
Can I have a custom frame on a dialog and keep the parent window visible?

My apologies if this has already been discussed in a previous thread, but I tried to search and didn't see it mentioned...
It seems here lately that whenever I turn on my 4G radio (I'm in a 4G area), my phone becomes very sluggish. Browsing and pinch-to-zoom using the Dolphin Browser becomes stuttered, swiping between home screens is delayed, pretty much anything I do is slower. I've killed all apps, but still get the same results. Once I turn the 4G off, the phone works fine. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this issue. It seems to be counter-productive to have a faster data speed when it makes your phone slower, basically canceling each other out.

I've had my Hero for a few months now and it has been wonderful. However, the other night, the phone wouldn't charge all the way, so I unplugged it, restarted it, and charged it and it charged up to 90% through the night. Last night it only charged up to about 50% give or take. This morning at work, I plugged it in and instead of charging, it got extremely hot and then it died.
This afternoon, I took it to the Sprint store and they put in a new battery and the phone worked again, but it got REALLY hot again. I took it back in and they looked at it again and said the phone has definitely got a problem and the cause of this is water. It has been raining, but I don't recall ever having any water get in the phone - just the occasional rain drop hits the screen and I wipe it off. I never keep it out in the rain. They are saying I'll have to do an insurance claim to replace it because of water damage. They say there are 4 water marks in the phone. I find this so hard to believe and don't like that they want me to spend $100 on a new phone.

ever since I installed Froyo my phone has been so laggy it's almost unresponsive. I'm rooted so that may be a cause but it might be a bad app. Anyone else have similar problems?

I see similar threads says this is normal for the Moto Droid. Anyone have this with their Dinc? Is it okay? It never did that until I had to remove my cover a handful of times during one day. It does it when it first turns on, if I change between taking a photo and viewing photos, etc. I want to be sure I didn't break it or something.

I have seen many posts on the new Otterbox case, but I don't have any knowledge of them or the company. What makes them different/better than the hard case I got off of eBay. Serious question. I have used the cheap screen protectors off of eBay and I don't like them as well. Might as well go ahead and spend the dollars each for OEM ones lol.

Whenever I start to use my GPS (not just switching it on but actually use it) for instance using Google maps and navigation, it seems to kill my 3G connection. I can still see the icon for connection however but it stalls completely. I have to switch GPS off, then force wi-fi on, then switch wi-fi off again to establish 3G connection again. This means that I can't use my GPS at all whenever I'm off wi-fi and want to use 3G. This is absolutely not OK. I've just started with this Android business, choosing this over iPhone. Please help me not to regret my choice.
