Any one knows why my ToggleButtons won't keep their states in a ListView?
Each list item includes a ToggleButton - when scrolled off from the screen their states are reset to unchecked...
I presume getView() is called once they're visible; however I'm not re instantiating them anyways.

I am facing a very mysterious Problem. I am using a ListView with CheckBoxes that can be clicked to select people. The row layout is the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <CheckBox android:focusable="false" android:onClick="onSelectPerson" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_marginRight="5dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> <TextView android:id="@+id/person_name" android:text="test" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:textSize="18dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> </LinearLayout>
As long as the amount of rows doesen't exceed the screen size (-> no scrolling) everything works just fine. But as soon as I have more rows then the screen size (-> some rows are hidden and have to be scrolled to). I have a very mysterious phenomenon: If I check the top row and scroll down some of the previously hidden rows are randomly checked too. If I scroll up again, again some of the before hidden rows are randomly vhecked (the CheckBox I clicked in first place may or may not still be checked). Also the registered onSelectPerson callback is only called for the CheckBoxes I really click. The other CheckBoxes just change their state to "checked" without calling the callback method. I have the same phenomenom on the Archos IT 5 and the Nexus One. This must have something to do with the ListView implementation but I can't quite figure out what the problem is.
My ListActivity is bound to an ArrayAdapter where I have overriden the getView() method. If I change the visibility of a widget in that method or modify the view's background color, those changes somehow get lost once that modified list item returns after being scrolled off the screen. In fact, some other view in the list is picking up the changes. How do I get the modified view to look the same when it's redisplayed after scrolling?

Is there a way to show that a WebView item contained as a item in a ListView is selected? Right now the WebView does not seem to display its contents transparently like every other control so it takes up the entire view and does not show its state as selected.
Also, when the content of the WebView is selected, scrolling down with the track back does not seem to cause the WebView to loose focus. If I continue to scroll down with the track ball, all of a sudden an item in the middle of the ListView gets selected.
I'm facing problem in scrolling. I've 20-25 items in my List, if i checked first check box, scroll down, then come up, my checked status lost (becomes unchecked), in cursor adaptor. If i use base adaptor problem is resolved but major issue with base adaptor is performance, if my list goes beyond the 100 items.

I cant find a way to save the checkbox state when using a Cursor adapter. Everything else works fine but if i click on a checkbox it is repeated when it is recycled.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have TabActivity that uses 2 other ListActivities for the tabs. Both underlying ListViews are set to CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE. When I run the following sequence of events, I get a strange result: 1) Setup one activity (tab) and its ListView using a CursorAdapter, including checking some items on the list 2) Reorient the screen (open the keyboard) 3) Setup the second activity (tab) and its ListView using a CursorAdapter, including checking some items on the list 4) Switch back to the first tab
At this point, I can see in Eclipse that although (of course) each ListView is a distinct object, the internal variable used to store the checked state of items, called mCheckStates, is the SAME OBJECT REFERENCE in each of the ListViews.
Clearly this is an issue, since the two views should not share the checked state of items between them.
If I skip step #2, this does not occur
Here is a bit more detail:
After Step 1: ListView1 is object reference @1, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2
After Step 2: ListView1 is object reference @3, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @4 (the reorientation recreates the views)
After Step 3: ListView2 is object reference @5, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2 <-- note the reuse of this reference from step #1, not sure how/why
After Step 4: ListView1 is object reference @3 (unchanged), ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2 (changed) <-- same as ListView2.mCheckStates
I have a compound UI component built up from a ViewGroup containing a number of TextView, ImageView etc. components. Many of these have StateListDrawables as their images/backgrounds. Is there any way of making them select from this drawable based on the state of the parent ViewGroup rather than the component itself? Ideally I want to be able to change the visual state of all children of the ViewGroup (text colour, image etc) based on the state of the ViewGroup, preferably without having to hook up complex logical code. This seems like a fairly common sort of requirement, so I was hoping it would be straightforward in Android - am I going to be disappointed?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a little confused by what I'm seeing with regards to phone state transitions via the PhoneStateListener. When I receive a call, this is what happens: (call comes in) RINGING -> IDLE (I pick up) OFFHOOK (I hang up) IDLE It's that first transition from RINGING to IDLE without any interaction from me (not ending the call, not answering the call) that confuses me. Do I really have to implement an idle counter to know that an incoming call has really ended? Seems like the reported phone state represents some sort of phone state that isn't the obvious one.Is this a bug or am I just not in tune with the paradigm here?

View 2 Replies View Relatedcan someone helpme out with how to save state of the app when the screen orientation is changed i read the development guide at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html#HandlingTheChange
But i dont know how to define the method collectMyLoadedData();
I have an app that runs in the background indefinitely provided there is work to be done. I want the app to go to sleep if there is no work to be done and the user is idle. The second part has me stumped. On Windows Mobile I was able to poll the power state to determine user idleness. On BlackBerry I was able to poll the device idle time. However, there does not appear to be a way to determine user idleness on Android.
Instead of polling for user idleness directly, I thought I might be able to use the on/off state of the screen. There are 2 intents ACTION_SCREEN_OFF and ACTION_SCREEN_ON and I was able to setup a listener for these (BroadcastReceiver). The problem is that I do not know how to determine the current state of the screen at the time I register the listener, therefore I have to wait until the next screen on/off change to know anything. The docs speak of some intents that are "sticky" and thus will allow the current state to be determined, but the screen events do not appear to have that property. What am I to do?
In general, I find the lack of support for polling system state properties (e.g. screen state, power state, signal strength) in Android to be annoying. It's cool that one can listen for changes in system state rather than constantly polling for them, but one still needs to know the current state of the property at the time the listener is registered.
I need to save some state when the user leaves my game during game play. Saving the state doesn't seem to be an issue, but I can't figure out how to restore it. The onCreate function isn't called when the Activity is resumed (only when it is first created), so I can't get my state back there. Logically, I would use onRestoreInstanceState, but it isn't being called.
CODE:..........
I see log output from onSaveInstanceState, onResume, onCreate, etc, but I never see a log message from onRestoreInstanceState and savedState is always null. Why isn't onRestoreInstanceState being called, and is there another way to get my state back?
My business partner and I have a small disagreement, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to resolve it. First, I should say I started out his way, and switched after reviewing a lot of applications. The background is this -- we have an app, with some controls which can be locked. A lock/unlock icon is put next to the lockable controls. You can long-click the icon, and it brings up a context menu with several items, including the item for the lock state.Currently, it brings up a "Locked [X]" or "Locked [ ]" item -- that is, a menu item with a checkbox that can be checked or unchecked, and the lock state is changed accordingly.He would like me to change it to reflect the action being taken. I.e. the menu item would say "Lock" if it is currently unlocked, and "Unlock" if it is currently locked.It would be acting as a toggle in either case; the only difference is how it is presented to the user.

I write this code in onCreate of the activity. The problem is when I switch activity using startActivity, and come back to the calling activity (using startActivity) then onCreate is called again. I see onPause, onStop called when I call other activity. Is there any way that I can save the application's state?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere is know problem in all the Android phones. Go to Bluetooth Settings->Turn ON bluetooth->Click on bluetooth discovery->Then timer will start in summary->Long press on Bluetooth device discovery-> observe Bluetooth ON/OFF title start to toggle with Bluetooth Discovery toggle. I analyzed the issue. Blueooth ON/OFF is CheckBoxPreference. Bluetooth Discovery is also CheckBoxPreference which has dependency on Bluetooth ON/OFF. When we click on Bluetooth discovery then On thread will run at every second to update summary in Bluetooth Discovery preference. When we change the Bluetooth discovery to OFF then thread will be removed/ killed. When i press the Bluetooth discovery for long time when its already in ON State then still the thread will be updating the summary (remaining time from 120 to 00) till i press it. When i leave the Thread will stop. As it has dependency on Bluetooth ON/OFF, its making to the title invisible. But it should not happen. Solution: When i touch the Device Discovery i should kill the update summary thread then i guess, that problem will be solved. But in prefence i dont have any listener to know the pressed state. I hope somebody can give me solution.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI understand how to save an application's state by using SharedPreferences, onSavedInstanceState() & onRestoreInstanceState(), etc as outlined in a similar post ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/151777/how-do-i-save-an-android-applications-state ), but how do I save the last activity?
To be more specific, my application starts up and goes to a login screen. Once a user logs in and navigates through several activities, lets say he or she leaves the app using the home button or in some other way. Next time the user starts the app, it will go back to the login screen and do a login again. Instead, I want the app to start up and go to the last activity that was on top of the stack when the user left the app in the previous session.
How is the last activity saved so that it can be restored on app startup?
Yes, I can get sensor update events with SensorEventListener. But this approach has 2 drwwbacks:
1) For some sensors I have to wait for the state to update. For example, temperature may update after a minute!
2) In some cases I can get incorrect readings. For example, the phone lies on a flat surface and does not move. I receive first orientation update event after listener registration. When only a part of the orientation vector changes, other parts may be 0. And it is no way to determine, is it a true 0 degree azimuth or just an incomplete vector. If I move the phone a little, the correct non-zero azimuth appears.
To solve this problems it's possible to create a separate thread that constantly monitors sensors. After some time it will certainly contain true values. But I think that it is an overhead for such simple task.
Is it any other way to get current sensor data?
If I was using an ImageButton with a selector for its background, is there a state I can change which will make it change its appearance? Right now I can get it to change images when pressed, but there seems to be no "highlighted" or "selected" or similar state which lets me toggle it's appearance at will.
Here's my XML, it only changes appearance when pressed.

Which of the following is/are appropriate for saving the state of an Android application?
a. Activity.onFreeze()
b. Activity.onPause()
c. Activity.onStop()
d. Activity.onDestroy()
e. Activity.onFinish()
I have searched through this and a few other sites for the answer, but I have been unable to find it. I am trying to save a boolean and an int using onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState, but I can't seem to get it to work. It doesn't crash or anything, but it either isn't saving it or it isn't restoring it, or I am stupid and have no idea what I am doing.
Here is what I have for my activity, do I need to have it in my onCreate somewhere or something?

I tried putting stuff in the onStop, but it crashes, which is why its empty, in case that matters, thanks in advance
I am developing an android application in which,the first activity is that for Login. After successful authentication, user can see an activity with 4 Tabs. My problem is that when user taps on the home button,the application should terminate and when the user again starts my application, he should be able to see the Login screen again and after successful Login, user should be able to see the tab on which he was working before application terminated(i.e., save state for all the tabs).
