Android :: Way To Set Fullscreen For Lifetime Of App?
Aug 19, 2010
Currently my application allows the user to set the application to run in full screen. I than check in every activity at onCreate() if the user has set to make the app run in full screen. Is there a better way to do this? I have many other settings that I do and I find this method a little bad in terms of code design. Is there a way to set full screen for the lifetime of app or until I set it back to not full screen? One way to do it would be to have a custom Activity class that does these checks and all my activities can just implement it? would that be slow is it recommended?

What is the lifetime of an app's global android.content.Context object? Does it last until the last component of the app is terminated by the Android runtime?

I'm extending ActivityGroup class and implemented a custom tabHost and widgets for my app. Can someone shed a light on how are the Activities fife-time inside an ActivityGroup?.
Im getting a weird behavior when using the following code to send a new intent to the current sub-activity, then change tab, and getting back to original tab. (TAB1 -> TAB2 -> TAB1)
CODE:.......
What i see from debug..
onSaveInstanceState() is called on TAB1, then TAB2 is current subActivity, but when going back to TAB1 onCreate() is called.
onCreate() is not called with the same test without using the onNewIntent() described above.

What is the lifetime of a ContentProvider in Android? After onCreate() is invoked, will the ContentProvider persist unconditionally for the lifetime of the process?
My ContentProvider manages a list of records, but only 1 is designated "active" and will be accessed by different applications a lot. I was wondering if it's safe to cache the index of this active record in memory as a member of my ContentProvider to speed up lookup.

I recently formatted my computer and updated to Windows 7. I backed up my keystore and tried to sign my apk with it but it gave me an error that said my certificate expires in 22yrs. which is just shy of what the market requires to upload the apk. So now I am stuck not being able to update my app... Is there a way to extend the lifetime of certificates so that I can update my app?

For example: A1 - parent, A2,A3,A4 - sub-activities. A1-->A2-- >A3(top), from A3 I go to the background (HOME). wait 30-40 min and

Is there an exception in the lifetime rules for a parent activity that's in the background after invoking startActivityForResult()? From my understanding, in low memory scenarios, the background activities are killed before the foreground. Does this rule still apply even if the background activity started the foreground one for the purpose of obtaining some result?
In this case, I think it would make sense for the foreground child activity to get killed first or to equalize the lifetime of the parent and child.

I'm not sure if the screen on the Droid is OLED or regular LCD. I know that leaving an LCD on for hours at a time can possibly shorten the life of the backlight... Anyone know what the case is here?

I try to find resources on how to develop a fullscreen IME (one that covers the whole screen size) for Android. Someone asked the same question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2749964 but no response so far.

I've created a device targeting 2.1 and having a screen screen size of 480x800 (WVGA). Some apps, including the one I'm currently writing, as well as the ApiDemos example, won't run fullscreen. I've uploaded a screenshot here: http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/503/emulator.png. What could cause something like this? If I run these apps on my HTC Desire (which has the same resolution), they utilize the whole screen like they should.

I am using the following attributes for an activity and expect a window to resize automatically to occupy space available above IME: android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" android:theme="@android:style Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" When IME is opened the window does not resize and the bottom appart is hidden by the IME. I've observed that if I remove the Fullscreen flag, window resizes as expected. Is there a way to make window resize with Fullscreen flag?

When Android is in portrait mode and the soft keyboard IME is shown, my app is resized properly. When in landscape mode, the soft keyboard IME is always in fullscreen/extract mode, and even though I can see the top portion of my app, it doesn't resize my app. I couldn't find any way to make the IME not come up in fullscreen mode. So instead, I detect this condition, and manually resize my app. This works, but unfortunately, to make this work well, I need to know the height of the IME, or the portion of my app that remains visible. But it seems there is no way to get this information, and the soft keyboard IME's height varies on different devices. As a hack, I put in options for the user to be able to adjust these parameters, and set the defaults for the G1. I can live with this for now, but is there a more appropriate way to handle this?
In addition, even in portrait mode, if the status bar is hidden, the IME also does not resize my app. This clearly seems like a bug to me.

I have the HTC One running Android 4.1.2. stock. I was wondering if it was possible do have the caller ID image go fullscreen without an additional app.
I've used a couple apps before, but there always seems to be an extra step, and it seems to interrupt the normal usage of the phone, like having to press more buttons just to hang up and the like.
I guess I'm asking whether or not we'll ever be able to have fullscreen caller ID images natively.Or, is there an app that more or less seamlessly integrates into the phone experience so there doesn't have to be extra button pushes?
I'm using an app called Not Call Log that I can set to take back to the home screen after a call instead of well... the call log. lol Do you think that may be interfering with Fullscreen Caller ID apps? Is there a way to not have the phone go back to the Call Log after a call natively?

I'm using the android mediaplayer to display videos and i try to implement two modes:
The first one is a simple fullscreen mode which scales the video to the maxiumum maintainable aspect ratio. Depending on the video size there are black bars on top/bottom or left/right. The second mode should scale the video to fill the full screen but to keep the aspect ratio. That means either the width or the height has to be cropped.
And that is the problem. How to crop a video? For ImageView there is a scale type "crop_center" which crops the image on a predefined rectable. Is there a similiar solution for video? If i set the surface view to a bigger size than its parent container the surface view is automatically scaled to fill parent. Next try was to set negative margins in the parent layout but in vain. Another try was to place the surface view in a scrollview which also leads to strange behaviour. Any ideas?

I have a Nexus 7. It has no hardware buttons. With some apps (e.g., Plague Inc), the soft buttons disappear. There's no in-app exit button. How do you quit the app?
There are little dots on the bottom that are supposed to represent the buttons.
