For some strange reason, and I haven't done any phone software updates - But the digital Zoom on both my camera and video has gone - Nothing happens when I press the volume rocker? I'm on Orange, with a branded phone and it definitely used to work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy application has buttons to launch gallery and video camera apps but the below code only seems to work on phones with the standard Cupcake build:
// For Gallery Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClassName("com.android.camera", "com.android.camera.GalleryPicker");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); mContext.startActivity(intent);
// For Video Camera Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClassName("com.android.camera", "com.android.camera.VideoCamera"); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); mContext.startActivity(intent);
On rooted / non-cupcake phones, I get this error:
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.android.camera/com.android.camera.VideoCamera};
have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? at android.app.Instrumentation.checkStartActivityResult (Instrumentation.java:1480) at android.app.Instrumentation.execStartActivity(Instrumentation.java: 1454) at android.app.Activity.startActivityForResult(Activity.java:2656) at android.app.Activity.startActivity(Activity.java:2700)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just created and iPhone web app, which has some x264 (mp4) video files on it. When I link directly to the file on the iPhone and the user taps the link, the video player is loaded and the video starts playing. Using the app on an Android phone causes the browser to download the video instead of just playing it. Is there a way to force a video player to just boot up and play the video not download it?

The only thing Nova can't do it turn the screen off from the lockscreen.

1 -what if i want to update the phone to android 4.2 or 4.3 or even 4.4 kitkat !!!!!
2 - how to change lock screen !!! is there any app do that !
3 - how to change incoming call screen !!!!
Anytime I get in a call and hold the phone to my ear with my should, I start hitting buttons like Mute, Add Call, End Call, etc. I've already been through 3 replacement devices, and all 3 have the issue.
I learned last night (after fighting with a tech at version for 2 hours) that the issue is really just a design flaw by Motorola. If you make an out going call, and then cover the light sensor with your hand (while the phone is vertical), all works great. If you keep the sensor covered and start laying the phone on it's back, eventually the screen will unlock. Doesn't happen every time, only about 80% of the time.
Needless to say, Verzion told me that because that's how Motorola designed it I'm stuck having to deal with it. So now I'm trying to find an app that can lock my screen while I'm in a call. I have bought Screen Suite but it really does way too much for me (plus, I hate the lock screen on it). I much prefer the default lock screen.
Does an app exist that can launch the stock lock screen while in a call? If not does anyone know if the SDK even provides the means to launch the lock screen? Because if so I may have to resort to writing my own app for it.

What I really want to do, though, is start a new activity, not display a toast message. I know it has something to do with pending intents, but I can't figure out how to get that to work.
I have a widget that when clicked opens an activity from same app as the widget. When the activity is closed/dismissed via a button, the user will see the full app window IF the app was previously open/in memory. Is there a way for the activity to finish and return to the home screen and not to an existing instance of the app?

I just bought this phone off of CraigsList.When I try to launch the camera, whether using the dedicated camera button on the side of the phone or using the icon on the screen, the display goes blank for one second and then goes back to the Home screen.I called Tmobile, and they just had me do a hard reset which didn't have an effect.
Is there an app for choosing which apps you want to use that are already open or whatever. Or is there a button you can press to bring up a task list like you do with you blackberry when u hold the blackberry key and the list of open apps comes out.

View 18 Replies View RelatedOne of the best features IMO of Home++ was not having the task bar visible at top of screen. I really liked just having the scrolling toolbar at bottom. Recently the task bar at top has shown back up. Anyone else experiencing this? Was this part of a recent update that I didn't pay attention to until just now?
I still really like Home++, even with that bar, just prefer not to have it.
