Android :: Relationship Between Pixels And Scaled Pixels?
Jan 4, 2010I used the layout editor in eclipse to mock up my ui layout and then I created the code to populate it dynamically and things are showing up as different sizes. The XML I use to add the star images looks like this:
<ImageView
android:src="@drawable/star_gold"
android:layout_height="22sp"
android:layout_width="22sp"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="2sp"
android:layout_marginRight="2sp" />...............
HTC Droid Eris : Dust And Dead Pixels
Dec 24, 2009I have had my Eris for about three weeks now and noticed three dead pixels at the top where the signal is meter is. They are pretty much hidden all the time unless the phone is on a black screen. I've also noticed a few dust particles sitting in the lower right hand corner of the screen. Anyone else getting dead pixels or dust under their screen? Small issues, but irritating knowing they're there.
Will Verizon swap it out for a new handset? When i first upgraded I got the Motorola droid, but returned it for the eris. Will that be an issue if they swap out the phone, as I've already exchanged it once?
Motorola Droid X : Row Of Intermittently Dead Pixels

Jan 10, 2010I got my Eris on Friday, and it has 4 pixels (2x2 square) that are significantly brighter than all of the others on the screen and they stand out like a sore thumb. This really bugs me and is distracting when that area of the screen is white or colored (doesn't show up when black).Has anyone else had this problem? Will Verizon exchange my phone for a new one? Seems like if I buy this phone and I'm stuck with it for two years, it should be flawless when I get it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMotorola Droid X : 1.13.604 Update Produced Dead Pixels
Jul 21, 2010I had my DroidX Cell Phone since when it was released last week.
The Cell Phone was working very well with no dead pixels on any of the menu screens, none on any of the software applications, and none on the Camera or Camcorder applications.
I had checked for the dead pixels using different colored backgrounds, and using dark screens especially with the Camera and the Camcoder application.
On Tuesday afternoon I downlaoded and installed the DroidX 1.13.604 Update.
The DroidX now has some dead pixeks in the same location only in the Camera and Camcorder applications, and not in any of the other applications or menu items.
You need to use the Camera and Camcorder applications in very low light and viewing a dark screen and you will definitely see the white colored dead pixels.
If you using the Camera and Camcorder applications and you are looking at an object in a bright light or in an outdoors setting you will probably not notice the white colored dead pixels.
Since the dead pixels only occur in the Camera and Camcorder applications it is probably a software related bug.

Jul 20, 2010My brother and I both just updated to the new firmware and noticed something.. Go and open up the Camera app (hold the red button) and tap "Switch to Video" and then tap it again so you are back in the picture mode. Look closely at the screen (point it at a white/black wall), do you see a couple light blue/green little dots in random spots? I noticed it on my phone first and then went and asked to borrow his and sure enough, his has them too. They don't seem to actually be in the pictures themselves.. just on the viewfinder screen.

Jan 21, 2010I'm using PackageManager.getApplicationLabel(ApplicationInfo) to retrieve application labels. It looks like the label that is returned depends on the Locale set for the phone. For instance with the music app I get "Music" in English, vs. "Musica" if I have my locale set to Spanish. Is there a way to get the default application label (perhaps as defined in strings.xml)? I want to be able to retrieve an application label for each app that is independent of locale.

Feb 14, 2010I was just wondering if there was a way to control the volume for each application independently. For example I was using my droid for GPS navigation and music in my car the other day and kept getting shouted at by the navigation since the volume was turned up for the music. Needless to say it gets really annoying fast. This problem stems from the fact that all the apps have their volume control handled by the media volume control.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Build Resolution Independent Layout Xml?
Mar 5, 2009I am working on a screen that needs to look fine at HVGA-L resolution as well as 640x480 resolution. Lets say I have a button that is 200 pixels wide and 50 pixels high on HVGA-L skin. When the same layout xml is shown at 640x480 skin, I want my button size increase proportionately. The hardware the app runs on supports both the resolutions.
None of the units that the android framework provides seems to have this facility. If I use px, then the button size will stay same. dip doesn't matter because it is the same hardware. sp is meant for fonts, not for button width/heights.
Motorola Droid X : Software Update Causes Dead Pixels For The Camera And Camcorder Applications
Jul 21, 2010My DroidX was working for the few days with no dead pixels on any of the menu screens, none on any of the software applications, and none on the Camera or Camcorder applications.

My DroidX now has some dead pixels that appear only in the Camera and Camcorder applications, and not in any of the other applications or menu items.
Since the dead pixels only occur in the Camera and Camcorder applications, could it be a software related bug or mayme something else?

Android :: App-independent Storage Of Shared Resources/Media
May 7, 2009I'm in a situation where I have to share some resources (i.e. images) between several of my apps and I'd like to know if there's a standardized and convenient way to do this besides the system-wide Media Store. The reason I don't want to use the MediaStore is that the resources are rather low-level (e.g. icons) and thus the user wouldn't be interested in them cluttering the MediaStore.
As I see it there are three ways to share the resources:
1) Store them in the global MediaStore. 2) Put them on the SD card. 3) Implement a custom ContentProvider for this kind of shared resources.
I like how a custom ContentProvider would encapsulate the way the data is stored, but it seems to be a bit of unnecessary overhead to achieve this. Writing to the SD card is convenient, but rather low-level. Are there any other options suited for this problem?
Android : Independent Wallpapers On Multiple Screens While Scrolling?
Oct 29, 2010Could it be possible to make each screen have a different wallpaper while scrolling? I mean, taking as an example a case with three screens, it will be necessary to set a x3 screen width wallpaper to fit 1/3 on each screen, or directly setting different images for each screen. so the scrolling make it visually a different wallpaper on each screen rather than sliding the wallpaper a 50% each side.

Jul 5, 2009i'm doing some experiments with OpenGL using the GLSurfaceView introduced in 1.5 In my Renderer I keep track of the time spent to render the last frame and pass this value to the method that update my model. The goal is to keep objects movements on the screen independent from the rendering time. Now this seems to work perfectly in the emulator, but on the real device is at least 4/5 times slower! Has anyone experienced the same problem? Or, anyone has a clue of what I'm doing wrong? Here's pieces of the code I'm using

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: App Independent Volume Control?
Feb 18, 2013I've been searching for a way to control the volume of different apps independent of each other. As in those apps that don't have any in-app specific volume controls. The only thing I've found is that the native android OS doesn't support such a feature, but that information is old.
While this has bugged me a bit in the past, it's only now that I've started using Google Now that's it's become annoying. I'm occasionally playing a game that has no in-app sound control, and I don't like the music/effects of that game, so I turn the media volume down to mute. But when I then switch to Google Now, the voice is on the same "media" volume control, which in turn makes me miss the spoken answer to my inquiry.
General :: Edit DPI X And Y Axis Independent
Dec 17, 2011The screen seems stretched on the x axis (in landscape mode), resulting in circles that look like ovals. So I decided to take a look at some system info apps, and this showed some strange numbers (see the screenshot below).
I already tried editing the dpi in the build.prop file, but this didn't fix the problem. The overall dpi changed, but I was still stuck with the incorrect aspect ratio. Maybe a way to change the dpi of the x and y axis independent?

Android : Using Bitmap Data To Copy Pixels To A New One
Jan 29, 2010In ActionScript development, there are two classes, Bitmap, and BitmapData. Bitmap uses information from BitmapData to create a Bitmap. Is there an equivalent to BitmapData in the android API? I did some digging and BitmapFactory seems to be the closest, however, I'm facing problems with it.
I tried Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decode Resource(getResources(), R.drawable.buster);
As that was what I was seeing in most of the examples I came across, but it is telling me that the method getResources is undefined. I'm not really sure what is causing this as in another tutorial I did, getResources didn't cause any problems.
I'm not looking to simply draw a bitmap to the screen, I want to copy a section of the bitmap and place it on a new bitmap. In ActionScript, the method is bitmapData.copyPixels(), and I'm looking for a similar method in the Android API. The closest thing I could find was copyPixelsToBuffer(), but I'm not really sure if that does what I think it does.
