I ask where the Arabic language in your Xperia 10i And also ask where the keyboard arabic and I can`t write to the Arabic And also the web browser for not supporting the Arabic language. Fine support for the Arabic language in the Middle East. We trust in Sony Ericsson products and large customers are also many. Thmilo and asked for the Arabic language and I hope to see soon in Xperia 10 beautiful, wonderful Xperia 10i

View 1 Replies View RelatedI can create a static widget without thinking, I can even create a widget like the analogue clock widget that will update itself, however, I can not for the life of me figure out how to create a widget that reacts to when a user clicks on it. Here is the best code sample that the developer documentation gives to what a widget activity should contain (the only other hint being the API demos, which only creates a static widget):
public class ExampleAppWidgetProvider extends AppWidgetProvider {
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) {
final int N = appWidgetIds.length;
// Perform this loop procedure for each App Widget that belongs to this provider
for (int i=0; i<N; i++) {
int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i];
// Create an Intent to launch ExampleActivity
Intent intent = new Intent(context, ExampleActivity.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0);
// Get the layout for the App Widget and attach an on-click listener to the button
RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.appwidget_provider_layout);
views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.button, pendingIntent);................
Even after adding both Arabic & English , I still can not change ! there is no arrow on the space button !!

View 3 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know of some alternative JVM language, however obscure it might be, which can compile to plain old java bytecode, without the need of a language runtime.I need this in order to try to develop android applications without startup or size penalty. Scala, Clojure and Groovy all require its own runtime library distributed with the application, so they are out of the scope of this question.The only one language which claims to satisfy this goal is Charles Nutter's Mirah, but I couldn't make it to work on windows.To clarify a bit, I know any language has to have runtime library. Obviously, what I am looking for is a language that has no additional runtime required besides JRE, or at least very limited one.

I am currently learning about widgets in Android. I want to create a WIFI widget that will display the SSID, the RSSI (Signal) level. But I also want to be able to send it data from a service I am running that calculates the Quality of Sound over wifi. Here is what I have after some reading and a quick tutorial: public class WlanWidget extends AppWidget Provider {RemoteViews remoteViews; AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager; Component Name thisWidget; WifiManager wifiManager; public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidget Manager, int[] appWidgetIds) { timer timer = new Timer(); timer.schedule AtFixed Rate(new WlanTimer(context, appWidgetManager), 1, 10000); The above seems to work ok, it updates the SSID on the widget every 10 seconds. However what is the most efficent way to get the information from my service that will be already running to update periodically on my widget? Also is there a better approach to updating the the widget rather than using a timer and timertask?

I have 2 buttons and i need to change one button text when i press the other one, how can i do this?
The first time i open the widget it calls the onUpdate method, but it never calls it again. I need to update the widget every 2 seconds and i have this line in the xml.
android:updatePeriodMillis="2000"
Do i need a service or should it works just with the updatePeriodMillis tag?
onUpdate method
CODE:..................
Can anyone tell me the best way to update widget every minute. Now I'm using thread inside the AppWidget, but sometimes i get error FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION !!! After that error, i always got a lot of error like that all the time and i can't change the view in my widget again.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been looking for a way to update a widget asynchronously, for example, when the phone receives a text message. I have a broadcast receiver set up with code that runs upon receiving a message. I also have an AppWidgetProvider that is set up and running. It seems like the *only* way a widget can be updated is upon its interval, or when the user interacts with it. Is there any way to update a widget upon a system event?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a widget, its setup so that when I click on it, it opens some settings in an activity.
CODE:................
This configures some settings for the application. What I want to achieve is to have the widget update its view to reflect the changed settings when the Activity I launch closes. Using the update interval or any other type of polling isn't appropriate for this.
I've seen a couple places here and in the android docs this code used:
CODE:...................
But I don't know how to get the mAppWidgetId value. I tried following the example for a widget configuration activity here http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html, but in the following code,

Extras is always null, so I never get the AppWidgetID.
I have added a widget and instead of updating it every xxx minutes, i want to update it only if in my activity something is changed. But how can i call the onUpdate Routine of my widget from my activity?
View 3 Replies View RelatedDepending on what I do in my application, I might want to force an update on my widget. I've have had a poke around and can't seem to find any API for doing a manual update. At the moment, I have a function that sends a broadcast and my onReceive does this:
CODE:...............
Is there a proper way to do this, which sents the int array to the correct values? Or do I have to do it like this instead?
I'm going to create widget which needs to update its content every minute (it shows time-related data).
However, there is no need to update widget if it is currently invisible, which means:
screen is turned off
another app is running
widget is placed on another (invisible) home screen tab
What is the best way to update only visible widget every minute - without waking up device nor doing unnecessary computations? After widget becomes visible, small lag before update is acceptable.
I respond to a button press on my appwidget in the onreceive method. When the button I pressed, I want to force the widget to call the onupdate method.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm just starting with android development and have written an application to show details about the battery status.
Now I wanted to put the whole thing into an widget - and here's the question:
Do I really need a update service in the background to listen for ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED intents? My first thought was to put just a <action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED" /> line into the <intet-filter> tag of the widget in the AndroidManifest.xml - but obviously it's not that simple.
If the UpdateService is the right way I'll do so - but I just wanted to make sure what the proper solution is.
I wrote one widget that updates per 5-seconds and I found that if it's run for a period of time, com.android.acore will occupy almost 100% cpu. Could somebody give me suggestions or help?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI hope it is the right android group for this question. I have a widget that is essentially an image button that toggles display and speaker modes on a custom Android 2.1 platform. It also displays different images to indicate what mode is currently selected. We are adding a hardware button that can also change the same display modes externally. I will have a driver that translates button presses to some events (maybe emulate a key press through input events or something else). If the user changes the mode by pressing hardware button, the widget will not know about that and will display wrong image. Is there a way to synchronize the widget state with the current mode without constantly polling the driver from the widget code? Widget can start a background service that would poll my driver every second or so and update the picture according to the mode reported by the driver. It does not look like a good solution to me. Can widgets receive any events besides clicks? Can widget detect when it becomes visible ? It looks like "remoteViews" cannot register any event listeners other than OnClickListener

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement a simple widget for display on the home screen. The problem I am experiencing is that onUpdate is only being called once when I install the widget. The configuration is below. Note: I will not leave update period at 20 secs as I know that would kill battery (just testing).
Configuration:
`<appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:minWidth="294dp" android:minHeight="72dp"
android:updatePeriodMillis="20000"
android:initialLayout="@layout/my_custom_app_widget">`
</appwidget-provider>`
Manifest Excerpt:
`<receiver android:name="MyCustomWidgetProvider"> <intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE"/>`
I am observing the following behavior when I install the widget:
In my WidgetProvider class on onReceive is called then onEnabled then onReceive, then onUpdate.
After that the widget displays and onUpdate is never called again. I also inspect the settings of the provider when onUpdate is called and everything set in XML above (e.g. update period) is correct.

(Avoid polling)UPDATE As per Karan's suggestion I have added the following code in my Service: RemoteViews remoteViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget);
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName( context, WlanWidget.class );
remoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.widget_QCLevel, " " + qcPercentage);
AppWidgetManager.getInstance( context ).updateAppWidget( thisWidget, remoteViews );This gets run everytime the RSSI level changes but it still never updates the TextView on my widget, any ideas why?
I'm trying to make a widget to my app, but it doesnt update.I just need to change the textview text and open an activity when a press a button, but none of them works
