My query returns a set of values and for each I want to place that within a textfield, so that the user may edit the value.
Also, I want to click a button to create a new empty field, so that I may insert a new entry.
If you know of good example, then please let me know!
I would prefer to use XML to define ui and I found this informations:
"In this case we create a new id called text1. The + after the @ in the id string indicates that the id should be automatically created as a resource if it does not already exist, so we are defining text1 on the fly and then using it." Source http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/notepad/notepad-ex1.html
Will this + allow me to autocreate as many fields as needed? Is there a way I can generically specify the layout in XML and then create fields adhoc based on db response?

I have a list with some Belgian cities with accentued ( is that the right english word?) characters: (Liège,Quiévrain,Franière, etc.) and I would like to transform these special characters to compare with a list containing the same names in upper case, but without these characters ( LIEGE, QUIEVRAIN, FRANIERE) What i first tried to do was to use the upper case: LIEGE.contentEqual(Liège.toUpperCase()) but that doesn't fit because the Upper case of Liège is LIÉGE and not LIEGE. I have some complicated ideas like replacing each characters, but that sound stupid and a long process.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working with a CheckBox that needs to hace some links appearing as text, not urls. I'm using something like this:
CODE:................
If I understand well, if the text in the checkbox contains "(something here)" it should output "something here" without parentheses.
This is just a test before adding the link ie. (go to google-http://www.google.com)
The thing is the links look like links but they are not modified (still with parentheses). Even if I put a schema or I hardcode the String in transformUrl method nothing happens.
I tried with setting autoLink to none, setAutoLinkMask(0), and maybe some more but still stuck.
Is there a way to set the default keyboard type for a html text input field for a webkit view on Android? Can this be done via CSS?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIf I have an EditText component on my screen that I have specified inputType="decimal" for (i.e. a numeric/decimal field), what is the best way to convert it to an decimal value in the application code?
Google recommends avoiding floats, and avoiding creating objects unnecessarily (and I assume any auto-unboxing code is bad too), so I take these as my constraints. I realize a small application probably doesn't need to worry too much, but I haven't been able to find a 'best-practice' solution to this.
The most common solution appears to be this:
double value = Double.parseDouble(txtInput);
I have encountered a problem with focused text fields in a WebView not showing entered text values.As long as a WebView text field has focus it will not show text or even the blinking cursor.You can select and highlight the text or unfocus the field to see it, but when it gains focus it will not show the text as if the foreground color of the text is white.The simplest code to demonstrate this is below.With the setTheme using a Light background, try typing values into the Email text field to notice that the text is not visible when the field is focused.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a simple EditText field in one of my Activities. If I set the field to disabled, it greys out and I cannot enter text with the hardware keyboard, however when I touch the field the virtual keyboard appears and that still lets me enter text. Is this a bug? Any workarounds for making sure this can't happen?
View 5 Replies View RelatedSay you are fully zoomed out on some internet page and you see a text field....you touch the text box to type in it. Instead of allowing you to type, it zooms in on the text box. Why? And sometimes, actually most of the time, it zooms in to the wrong area and I have to scroll around to find the text box I was going to type in. So, can I turn off that particular zoom feature? Or can the zoom feature be made accurate....because most of the time it is not accurate at all and the zoom completely misses the text box.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that when using my phone to reply to a long string of text on forums (or at least some of them) I seem to hit a roadblock at some point. By that I mean, if I wanted to reply to a message like I am typing this right now, if I want to scroll down to the bottom I am unable to if the length of the text reaches a certain point. Or in another situation, I could be typing my reply, but once I write enough to reach that limit I am unable to type any further. This only applies when wanting to reply at the bottom of the string of text. There are ways to work around the issue, but in certain cases they aren't always preferred.

I have been looking for something similar to the feature which is available on the Nexus one, which is the ability to enter text via speach on any text input.
I know its available for the google search on the X10, but does anybody know if its available for every text box?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (4G). In the email application (standard) it seems to store all of the email addresses from emails I've received, even SPAM emails.
Now when I send an email and enter the "to" field, it suggests these email addresses. How do I clear out all of these stored suggestive email addresses from my phone? None of them are in my contacts lists.
Im using just normal pop email and the standard email app. I've tried cleaners, clearing cache, deleting email accounts - everything.
I'm writing an Android application that allows a user to maintain a list of products. In the EnterProductData activity, the user can enter information about the product into form fields, which will then save the info to a SQLite DB. The EnterProductData activity also allows the user to initiate a barcode scan via the Barcode Scanner app in order to capture the UPC code. The problem I'm facing is trying to set the value of the UPC text field in onActivityResult() once the barcode scan activity is complete and returns the value.
What is ending up happening is my onResume() method is calling a function (populateFields()) that sets the values of the text fields to whatever is currently saved in the DB. And this seems to be happening after onActivityResult() is called. This means the scanned UPC is set as the text field value, only for an empty value to be set to it immediately after. The line of code to blame is commented with asterisks next to it. I imagine that if I immediately save the scanned UPC to the DB in the onActivityResult() method, I can avoid this problem, but that doesn't seem to be the best practice, in my opinion. Can someone advise me on what I should do?
EnterProductData.java
public class EnterProductData extends Activity {
private Button mScanButton;
private EditText mUPC;
private Button mSaveButton;
private Long mRowId;
private DbAdapter mDbHelper;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mDbHelper = new DbAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open();
setContentView(R.layout.enter_product_data);
mUPC = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.UPC);
mScanButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.scanButton);
mSaveButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.saveButton);
mRowId = (savedInstanceState == null) ? null :

if (mRowId == null) {
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
mRowId = extras != null ? extras.getLong(DbAdapter.KEY_PRODUCT_ROWID): null;}
populateFields();
mScanButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
IntentIntegrator.initiateScan(EnterProductData.this);}});
mSaveButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

I have a login screen with a edit text password field. In landscape mode, when i try to enter anything into the field, the view kinda zooms into the field with the virtual keyboard on the bottom, and anything i type is visible as plain text; now if i were to hit the back button, it will zoom out and display the entire activity but the text in the field is hidden.
I have tried setting android:password="true", it works only in portrait and when in the zoomed in state.. thats no help android:inputType="textPassword" this by itself is useless.
I have had this same problem happen twice to me on 2 different phones on 2 different Verizon accounts!
The password screen locks and when it asks for the user name and password it states invalid user name / password!
Is this a known problem since when I called and talked to both Verizon and HTC the only thing they could tell me was to do a hard reset and they weren't aware of this problem?
Is there anyway . that i can put a password for my pics and text.. so no one can read them without a pw..
View 5 Replies View RelatedI use handscent and it allows me to lock the text messages. However, if I open the messages icon that comes with the phone, then I can still view all the messages without putting in the password.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've modified my previous code for login.
CODE:.......
As you can see, I've left a blank on my if..else. I do not know how to apply an sql statement to check the user and password.
CODE:....
I've insert onClick(); to direct to the other method so that the user will be directed to another page by using the onClickListener method, intent. But I'm having trouble doing that and so I thought that my code is wrong or there should be another way to direct to the other page once the user entered the correct username and password.
Before that, what should I do so that there would be a database connection? Or have I created a connection by inserting db.Open()?
I need to know the codes needed to be inserted the if..else statement.
Another basic stuff I want to know is how to set the text on the password edittext box to dots instead of the actual text.
I'm new to Android application development and I'm currently experimenting with various UI ideas. In the image below, you can see a vertically scrolling list of horizontally scrolling galleries (and also textviews as you can see). I'm also doing some matrix and camera transformations which I will come to in a minute.
For the background of the list elements, I use green. Blue is the background of the galleries, and red is the background for the images. These are just for my benefit of learning.
The galleries being used are extended classes where I overrode the drawChild method to perform a canvas scale operation in order for the image closest to the center (width) to be larger than the others. The list view going vertically, I overrode the drawChild method and used the camera rotations from lack of depth dimension in the canvas functionality. The items in the list are scaled down and rotated relative to their position's proximity to the center (height).............
I'm new to android but just used the guides at this forum to root my LG Optimus V. I was wondering if now that I have root there is a way to install a boot password similar to the one I have on my computer. Before it loads the operating system, the BIOS asks for a password. Is there any similar functionality for android?
Also, is this possible on other devices even if it is not on mine? It's one of my favorite laymen security measures.
evo password pattern only? or can i have a # password
