What's a good way to limit the number of words that can be entered in an android EditText view?
My application takes userid from user as input, the userid is alphanumeric i.e just the first character is (a-z), other part is numeric. How can I validate input of this type ( like G34555) ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI remember seeing a tutorial a few months back that I cant seem to find anywhere Basically, theres a single EditText, Button, and TextView, and an onClickListener takes the formula that is entered into the EditText (Example: (5^12(6.3+12) / (12 * .01)) ) and it would calculate it and output the answer on the TextView.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs this possible in an Android app? I want to make it so that no matter how many times a user starts activityA, when they hit the back button they will never get more than one occurence of activityA. What I am finding in my current code is that I have only two options 1. I can call finish() in activityA which will prevent it from being accessible via the back button completely, or 2. I do not call finish(), and then if the user starts activityA (n) times during their usage, there will be (n) instances when hitting the back button. Again, I want to have activityA accessible by hitting the back button, but there is no reason to keep multiple instances of the same activity on the stack. Is there a way to limit the number of instances of an activity in the queue to only 1?

Does anyone know if this is a limitation to Android or the hardware? By the way, here's my test class so you can try it out yourself.

private final int[] mColors; private final Paint mPaint;
public PressureView(Context context) { super(context);
mPaint = new Paint(); mPaint.setStyle(Style.FILL);
mColors = new int[]{Color.RED, Color.GREEN, Color.BLUE, Color.YELLOW, Color.MAGENTA};
} @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { super.onDraw(canvas);
canvas.drawColor(Color.WHITE); for(int id : mSpots.keySet()) {

canvas.drawCircle(spot.X, spot.Y, spot.Pressure*500, mPaint);
} } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
System.out.println("***" + event.getPointerCount() + " Pointers");
for(int i = 0; i < event.getPointerCount(); i++) { int id = event.getPointerId(i);
Spot spot = null; if(mSpots.containsKey(id)) { spot = mSpots.get(id);
} else { spot = new Spot(); spot.Color = mColors[mSpots.size()]; }
if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) spot.Pressure = 0;
else spot.Pressure = event.getPressure(id);
spot.X = event.getX(id); spot.Y = event.getY(id);
mSpots.put(id, spot); } invalidate(); return true;
} private class Spot { public float X, Y, Pressure; public int Color; } }
I have a very large number of (corporate) folders in Outlook which I don't want/need to access on my Milestone, but I can't figure out how to stop them being displayed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a project written for Android devices. It generates a large number of files, each day. These are all text files and images. The app uses a database to reference these files.
The app is supposed to clear up these files after a little use (perhaps after a few days), but this process may or may not be working. This is not the subject of this question.
Due to a historic accident, the organization of the files are somewhat naive: everything is in the same directory; a .hidden directory which contains a zero byte .nomedia file to prevent the MediaScanner indexing it.
Today, I am seeing an error reported:
CODE:................
Regarding the sdcard, I see it has plenty of storage left, but counting
$ cd /Volumes/NO_NAME/.hidden
$ ls | wc -w
9058
Deleting a number of files seems to have allowed the file creation for today to proceed.
Regrettably, I did not try touching a new file to try and reproduce the error on a commandline; I also deleted several hundred files rather than a handful.
However, my question is: Are there hard limits on filesize or number of files in a directory?
am I even on the right track here?
Nota Bene: The SD card is as-is - i.e. I haven't formatted it, so I would guess it would be a FAT-* format.
The FAT-32 format has hard limits of filesize of 2GB (well above the filesizes I am dealing with) and a limit of number of files in the root directory. I am definitely not writing files in the root directory.
I have 9,557 Contacts.
It seems as though I cannot add any new contacts from my phone.... I can only add new contacts from the web (Gmail and/or Google Voice).
Is there some Limit to the number of Contacts that can Synch with Gmail?
(I have a Motorola Droid on Verizon.)
I have an EditText field that is intended for only numbers ( digits, decimal point, +/- signs). How do I tell the software keyboard to jump to numeric mode directly?

Let's say I use a ScrollView to pan over a very large view. The large view draws itself dynamically in onDraw(). Is there a practical limit to the size of the view? That is, are view contents cached or buffer-backed and can I turn that off?
View 2 Replies View Relatedhow about putting a limit on the max number of apps that can stay in the task-switcher cache? or allowing selectively selecting which ones stay in the memory N others like tools n utilities frontends (like cpu spy, callrecorder, camera, setcpu no frills, etc) should get the heck out of the cache.
the ideal would be to have only 4 real-app (not utility/tool) [not]processes /cached tasks/ at max for 512mb fones (like my xperia s) and maybe 6 for 1gb ones.
