Android :: Warning! Do Not Use Paper Tissues - Tiny Scratches On The Surface
Sep 2, 2010
I'm very happy with my new smartphone, the Galaxy S from Samsung . I don't use any protection for the screen, so i wipe out the "fingerprints" with something to make it nice and shiny! However i did use, several times, paper tissues. Big mistake. If i hold down the phone in bright light, i see tiny scratches on the surface .
So only use cloth and nothing less if you don't use protection, but NEVER use paper tissues!

When i had my iphone i used to love this app! It is simple and fun, played it nonestop. now i see its in the app store (search : paper toss). So i quickly grabbed it. now it is fun but was saddened on how subpar it felt to its iphone cousin. i really hope they make this app comparable to its iphone/touch cousin. But the fun factor is there, just in a reduced form.

I took a photo in San Francisco yesterday with Droid and uploaded it using Facebook app. But it is really tiny, downsized too much.Overall, it's a great phone. Do wish it had some Sense UI sexiness though!

I am asking about the development of an Android application that must work in backgroup (so no user interface).
Usually my application extend to the activity class that manage all the application process.
Maybe i can avoid any setContentView() that won't display anything but i don't want any icon .

Let's share info on how we who have poor eyesight can better use our Android phones, what do you say?
1. A program called Spare Parts would allow you to increase font size for many apps. Does not work for the HTC Hero (OS 1.5). Unknown if it woks for any other OS or phone that is currently in existence.
2. A program called Bettercut allows you to create a Display shortcut and use that to enlarge text on some apps. Does not work on the HTC Hero (1.5). Developer says it may be because of the special Home screen the Hero has. Unknown if it works for any other OS or phone.
3. Browser allows you to zoom in out of the box (unless you searched google!)
4. Do OS versions 1.6 and 2.0 allow one to enlarge text out of the box?

Is this project Tiny ORM written by Shawn O. Pearce going to be equivalent to Hibernate in Java ActiveRecord in Ruby Doctrine in PHP http:// android. git.kernel.org/?p=tools/gwtorm.git;a=summary Does any one know if Google is working on an ORM for Android. What are the similarities and differences between Tiny ORM and the above named projects? Why are protocol buffers being used in the ORM, I do not understand the relationship between protocol buffers and ORM concepts. I found the above link by reading this blog post.http://mobilebytes. wordpress.com /2009 /06/14/ android-orm-coming/ I have been hearing rumblings about this, but was just curious if anyone has any further information.

A user of my Android App reported that he was seeing tiny text. How is this possible? More importantly, how can I use the emulator to be sure that my changes will fix it?This user has a Motorola DROID phone, which has a different screen resolution and maybe other slight differences.I assume that the problem was I didn't test using the right screen size. However, I followed the instructions here and tested a larger screen and the text was fine. I know my app has fixed pixel heights like this: android:layout_height="64px" and I use text side parameters like: android:textSize="14sp" or android:textSize="12pt"

I love the show Dexter on Showtime. There is a commercial for the show that looks like Green grass with morning dew on it... but the dew is actually drops of blood. Does anyone know where I can find this photo? And if so can you tell me how to resize it properly to 960 X 854 for the Moto droid.

I had an idea of buying an cheap screen protector to cut out a circle for the camera on the evo 4g. Anyone else have an idea on how to protect the evo's camera. And will this mess up picture or video quality.

I know their is a solution I can probably use to get rid of the scratches but not sure exactly what it is. Any anyone knows or has any ideas how to get the scratches off, please post.

Anyone having issues with scratches on their screen? Ive had my Evo about 3 weeks now and Im noticing several minor scratches. The only thing the scratches can be from is putting it in and taking it out of my left blue jean pocket. Also, the USB cable / phone connector seems a little flimsy. Anyone having issues with that too?

I am planning to write a video player application and I am planning to use the gstreamer on the native side. I am trying to use the SurfaceFlinger for the rendering part. For this I have written a test program to experiment on the rendering part. I am using the surface flinger wrapper from the project
http://gitorious.org/rowboat/external-gst-plugins-android
But the following ERROR occurs when we try to run the .apk.
CODE:.......
The I changed the permission for "android.permission.ACCESS_SURFACE_FLINGER" in frameworks/base/core/ res/AndroidManifest.xml to "dangerous" and recompiled. But got the same error.
Then I commented out the "checkCallingPermission" method in IServiceManager.cpp and recompiled. Then also i got the same error.

I am working on a graphics application in Android. I have a question regarding MULTIPLE SURFACE VIEWS. Can I be rendering multiple surface views at the same time. Initially, when I had two surface views in the same activity, it didn't seem to work, as it used to show only one at any time. But, with one surface view attached to one activity, is there any way I can keep the background activity's Surface View alive so that both the surfaces get rendered together?

Looking the doc with class SurfaceHolder is possible set the kind of surface format. I need to show images YCbCr_420_SP format. If I set YCbCr_420_SP format is not clear after how I can set the data. With Canvas object I can draw only bitmap format and not YCbCr_420_SP. Then my question is : can I draw directly on surface using YCbCr_420_SP data ? how ?

I'm attempting to create a 3d game using OpenGL. I have a very basic world and am now working on a character. I want to map a texture to the head which will be oval shaped. How do I do the mapping? I know how to map to flat surface. I'm wondering if the normals can be used to help but I've never done this before and when I search Google I don't have any luck. I'm planning on doing this all programmatically and not using Blender or Maya if that makes any difference.

I canceled my order for a seidio innocase II because of the thread that showed that the case caused scratches on the phone. I want to keep my evo in pristine condition and want something that won't scratch it and that I can get in less then a weak. I saw the active seidio case on amazon but shipping estimates are 3-4 weeks from now and that just won't happen. I know I will probably have to go with a silicon case and I'm ok with that.

While looking at my screen in bright sunlight this morning, I noticed there are some light scratches that appear to be under the screen. I can only see them in direct sunlight or under a bright desk light while holding the phone at a certain angle. Is this at all normal? I just got the phone on Friday and noticed this immediately and haven't dropped it, pocketed it with keys, etc. I would think if the scratches were on the outside of the glass, they would be easier to notice. Would you send it back for a replacement?

Well my f'ing Honda key did it again! It got my Eris and now my Incredible. God I am so careful not to put anything in the same pocket as my phone but the one time I was out in board shorts and had to put them in there together all over my screen! I hate screen protectors because I LOVE the feel of the glass and hated my Droid with its Zaggs protector. Oh well I guess I have proof for anyone thinking these screens are scratch proof.

I've heard that the screen is like the HD2 and that thing does not scratch whatever you do to it, but what about the back? I've heard that the texture is the same as the Hero.

I've created game, everything works fine on all previous android versions except current cupcake 1.5. It works even on cupcake pre release.I'm using exact the same build.xml, sources and resources. The problem is that surfaceCreated is not called : SurfaceHolder mSurfaceHolder = getHolder(); mSurfaceHolder. addCall back(this); setFocusable(true); WaitForScreen(); - here I untill surfaceCreated change variable that it's ready,but it's never called. I just can explain that I'm running SurfaceView activity after stopping regular View activity (for the game menu - it was easier to create it). Please help me if you can figure out something. I'm just a developer not a Android engine tester. If they are putting such stuff to the market they should test it a little bit (not talking about discovered VM crashes instead of exceptions).

Ever since my OTA upgrade, every time I use the internet, everything is extremely tiny. I think its not the mobile internet but instead the full version. Now I have to zoom way in to view anything and its a real nuisance. Anyone else having this issue?

The speaker is on the back of the phone, below the battery cover. When I hold the phone by its sides while watching a video, the speaker sound can sound tiny. But when I cup the back of the phone with my right hand, the volume is increased, possibly because the sound bounces off my hand.
