I have a custom dialog in my android application. I want to have in this dialog a field for choosing a phone number from contacts.
This example describes such snippet. However for this example contact picker is created inside an activity and I do not know how to do this if I do not have activity (in case of dialog)

I'm looking to create something EXACTLY like TimePickerDialog (look and feel) in Android, but it would be for MINUTES/SECONDS, not HOURS/MINUTES. Therefore AM/PM would not be relevant and would therefore allow MINUTE to be greater than 24 (making the max 59). Is it possible to change the TimePickerDialog instance in any way to reflect this?

View 1 Replies View Relatedi'm using the default way to call the contact picker.
public void showContactPicker(View view)
{
Intent newIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(newIntent, 1);
}
but i need to select multiple contacts using checkboxes. how can i put checkboxes in the contacts list? is there a method that i can override that can add checkboxes and get the selected contact ids?
This question1 describes a way how to show list of phone numbers and select one of them if my app needs a phone number. But image if I have a huge contact list, it is not enough to just show list but possibility for filtering (by contact's name) is also needed. Is there a standard way to show phones list with picking possibility and with filtering possibility? (I wouldn't like to invent my own) Is there a solution for the problem for sdk 2.0 and lower?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Dialog window created via the onCreateDialog() callback of my Actvity. In the Dialog I would like to allow the user to enter an email address or to select a contact from their contact list and have the email address populated based on their choice. This can be accomplished using code...
However since the Dialog is not itself an Activity I cannot use this method, the best I can do is
context.startActivity()
How can I launch the contact list from a Dialog and get a result?

I have set up the picker to respond to intents and have tested it in my application. However the way I am hoping to use the photo picker is to restrict it to a specific folder on the SD card. Is this possible, I have looked through the API/SDK and have not found the information I was looking for.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem about repeating Login dialog (an AlertDialog) and progress dialog, coordinating with http thread. I suppose repetitive Login dialog (if fail, continue) handling should be common and straightforward. I guess my approach must be wrong somewhere. I already spent 2 days on this and am desperate. So please help. User starts the app, the main activity starts.Show a login dialog (generated by the main thread, i.e. from on Create. The main thread then starts a wait_thread, which will wait for http to return data and check the data and decide what to do.After user input username/password and press login, a progress dialog starts.The progress dialog starts an http_thread to talk to the server and get replies. Once done, it will notify the waiting thread.If the user type in the right username password first time, the code works fine.But it always fail for 2nd time Login, i.e. When first login fail(wrong username/ password),the wait_thread will generate 2nd Login dialog to let user repeat the login process. But after user hit the login on this 2nd Login dialog, the system always crashes.

Does anyone know of a quick color picker widget that I could grab to use in my application? I've seen one in a few different applications that has a wheel with colors, and that you tap in the center to select, but I'm not sure where to find it. Google brings up nothing. Any color picker would be fine though.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCan any one post sample code for a simple date picker in Android.
If date picker is not possible in Android, an option to choose a date is needed.
I have created what I believe is a relatively useful color picker, derived and massively extended from the ColorPickDialog example in the API Demos. If anyone would like to try it out, it is available on the Market at Applications/Tools/UberColorPicker Demo". It didn't put it in the Demo section because it isn't a demo in the sense of being a free teaser of a nonfree product, if you see my meaning. If you like it, you can download the source from http://keithwiley.com/Downloads/AndroidUberColorPickerDemo.zip. Feel free to drop it -- ready-to-go and unmodified - into your own apps (I use it for setting text color preferences in Shead Spreet)...or to hack, extend, and change it however you see fit.

how to create an Alert dialog in a dialog? is it possible to create? My requirement is to show mulitple dialogs simultaneously. I tried creating with the following code snippet onClick of a Button in the first Dialog and got an "BadToken" exception from WindowManager: "Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application"
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getContext()); builder.setTitle("Test Title"); builder.setOnCancelListener(new Dialog.OnCancelListener() { public void onCancel(DialogInterface dialog) { dismiss(); } });
I have a really weird problem, which I am unable to debug so far. thing is. my app needs to download something to work. So in the beginning of the onCreate() method, I check if that something is already downloaded. If not, I pop a dialog up asking the user to download it.My dialog is shown and I am clicking, so aManager.install() is called. I am passing the context because that aManager.install() pops up a ProgressDialog to show downloading progress and spawns a new thread in which everything is downloaded. So obviously before creating my dialog I make a Handler to receive the response from that aManager.install(). And the response MAY vary, because for example the internet connection isn't available (Exception raised and catched and listener called with different code).Now, when that happens (Exception) I would like to call another dialog saying "something went wrong, would you like to retry?" so another call to showDialog(DIALOG_REINSTALL) (this time with another code).thing is the showDialog() gets called (I can verify this by logging) but the dialogs doesn't show up. Instead my application JUST HANGS Does someone have a clue why it's doing this? No exception raised, absolutely nothing from logcat, I can't tell WHERE it's hanging...just see that the method is called and the dialog should be displayed.

I'm trying to test a date picker scenario on android. I have the date picker which comes up when I click a text view(with id say v) which has a label on it along with a hint "Enter Date".
The problem is that I'm trying to simulate this clicking of the text view and then selecting of the date from the date picker dialog. I cannot find an method call/option in Solo to get hold of the text view (ex:with id say x).
I've been trying to figure it out for the past three days.
Can anyone suggest me a way to go about it?.
When I want to change an icon on my home screen, my launcher brings up the standard 'select app for this task' box.
The trouble is I want to use my file browser, and its not showing up there, I'm only getting to pick gallery, and this is difficult because my icon set has 1000+ icons, which would be easy to find by file name, but looking through 1000 icons every time you need one isn't much fun. I'm using ADW launcher by the way and solid explorer.
Can you add to these app select menus, like you can add to 'send to' in windows?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to learn Android development and have modified a sample app that loads a web page in a WebView. The web page contains a text input. I want to use the Android DatePicker to input a value instead of the keyboard. The code below almost works. The DatePicker is displayed but throws an unknown error when I select a date and call loadUrl on the WebView in the onDateSet handler to update the value of the text input (end of code sample). I suspect a cross thread issue but I'm not sure.

I'm writing a bitmap editor. Each document consists of about 3 bitmap layers and documents are, at the moment, saved as a custom file with a .bme extension. These files can be converted to standard jpg/png files by rendering each bitmap on top of one bitmap and saving the latter. I need some way for the user to be able to select .bme files they've created already. Is there anything in Android that can make this easier for me? The only option I can see is to write an activity that creates a list view and write a list adapter that looks for .bme files on disk i.e. a copy of the standard "Media Gallery" app that works for my .bme files. The list adapter will either have to generate a thumbnail preview of the image to show to the user or I'll have to package such a preview in the .bme file when they're created. This is the only option I can think of. I thought I'd ask in case there is more Android friendly way of doing this. For example, can you add custom file support to the "Media Gallery" app?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to set a new default ringtone without using the ringtone picker. In other words, there is a certain ringtone that is already installed on my system, and I want to programmatically set it to be my default ringtone without any human interaction. The reason I want this is because every time I reboot my N-1, my previous default ringtone setting gets forgotten, and I am given another ringtone that I don't like. I want to set up an app that I can run manually (or better yet, to cause to automatically run upon startup) which will reset my default ringtone to the one that I like without my having to manually do this via the Settings.
The only examples I have found so far for doing this involve using the ringtone picker, but as far as I can tell, this requires human interaction, which I want to avoid.
