Android :: Why Is Animation Leaving A Trail?
Jun 18, 2009
I'm animating a an ImageView from the right to the left of the screen using a translate animation. The ImageView is place inside a RelativeLayout over the top of my main layout using FrameLayout. When I run the animation on the emulator everything works pretty well but when I use run it on my G1 it leaves visual artifacts behind and effects the rendering of the text component behind it. Is this a performance issue and I'm being too ambitious or is it a bug I can overcome? If it is a performance issue is there anything I can do to improve things?

I'm fading out an imageview with alpha animation. I'd like the image to stay transparent after the animation. Tried with different combinations of fillAfter and fillEnabled, no luck. How can this be achieved?

I'm looking for android app for trail gps nav like the garmin oregon or colorado, etc.https://buy.garmin.com /shop/shop.do?cID=145 I have no prob. paying for this app / maps but can't find one. Everything I have found requires you to download many diff programs and maps to cut this and save as that,etc. etc. etc. then use another program to perform another step, etc. etc. I just want to buy something for my phone that will work like the oregon. The app should be much less than the whole garmin device, right? I would even be happy with the basic handheld models like this https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=144&pID=6446 type of software for my phone. The reason I won't purchase the basic $99 handheld device is they only provide room for 5 character names and I just can't provide enough waypoint info. but nav apps seem to offer more room for details.

Is there a good way to use the phone to read the SD cards from the trail cameras? Maybe an external viewer?

I don't know if this is an Android in general or Desire specific problem but I imagine all the sharpest minds have HTC Desires anyway so here goes:How do you get rid of the trail of previously visited sites that you step back though in the browser when you press the phone's back button? After clearing the history these pages persist and it seems the only way to lose them is to step back though each of them with the back button until you reach your home page when the next press finally 'closes' the browser. It's very annoying, especially if any of the pages you've visited have POST data or redirects.

NFL 10, Derek Jeter Baseball, The Oregon Trail, etc ...
Do a quick search for gameloft (gameloft | All | By date, Androlib, Android Applications and Games) on the androlib website and you come up with a bunch of games that (at least I can't) see in the market.
Can you guys see these games, and if not why can't we see them?

I have a strange issue - from time to time the animation that should fade out my control (ImageButton) does not kick in immediately. I am using the fadeout animation to hide it and then in myListener on its end (onAnimationEnd) I put new resource as the image on the button.
Somewhere in my app code:
Animation a = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,R.anim.fadeout); a.setAnimationListener(new myListener(location)); buttons[location].setAnimation(a); a.startNow(); // regardless if its start() or startnNow() it will work in most of the cases but not 100% reliable I actually can see in debug Log when its late, happens after few more clicks
Then in myListener.onAnimationEnd(Animation a):buttons[location].setImageResource(R.drawable.standard_button);
Seems there is a rule that the every 4th or 5th animation does not start ...

I'm looking for a app that will turn on the GPS when I leave a location, and will turn it off when I arrive at a location.
Example: I leave the house and the GPS is turned on, I arrive back home and the GPS is turned off.

i find it quite annoying that uninstalling an app doesn't remove all of its data.sure, this is desired behavior for some apps (a camera for instance), but imo google should have implemented a requirement for an app to explicitly request to be allowed to save permanent data, and if the request wasn't made, collect the location of any saved data and remove it upon uninstallation

I've recently been getting user complaints that when they leave my app by pressing the 'Home' key, my app continues to play sounds like it is supposed to, but when they go back to the app, a new one opens, but the old one is still running in the background. I have noticed this sometimes myself too, but only recently (my app has been on the market for a while now). I've done some testing myself and noticed that when a new instance of the app is opened after pressing 'Home' then starting the app again, pressing the 'back' key will go back to the original instance of the app that was opened. This means that the original instance of the app was not killed, but a new one was just opened over it. Has anyone else experience something like this?

Is it possible in Android to get a callback when a Frame Animation (AnimationDrawable) has completed playing its frame sequence? I know when a Tween Animation has completed, it calls onAnimationEnd(), but is there something similar for frame by frame animations?

If user repeatedly presses back button, I need a way to detect when they are on the very last activity of my task/app and show "Do you want to exit?" dialog befor they return to Home Screen or whatever previous app they had running.
Its easy enough to hook onkeypressed(), but how do I figure out that this is a "last" activity in the task?

I need my Android app to save it's state to disk when its activity is put in the background or killed. It's been suggested that I start a thread when onPause() is called and perform any expensive I/O procedures there (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3894668/saving-loading-document-state-quickly-and-robustly-for-image-editor).
In what situations will the OS kill the thread and how commonly do these situations occur?
I assume it will be like how Activities are dealt with where the OS can arbitrary decide to kill the thread but will mostly only do this when resources are extremely limited. It would be nice to find some specific documentation of this though.
From playing around, with some test code, a background thread started in onPause() will run indefinitely in the background on my device (I tried loading lots of apps and couldn't get it to be killed).
For my specific app, I'm writing a bitmap editor where I'm using the Command pattern and the Memento pattern to allow undo and redo of edits. I'd like the user to be able to undo/redo their edits even e.g. the user gets a phone call and the activity is killed when it is put in the background. The best solution I can think of is to use a background thread to constantly save my command and memento objects to disk during application use and to finish up saving any objects that are left in a background thread if onPause is called. In the worse case, if the thread is killed I'll only lose some edits.

I have a desk job that I'm pretty much at my desk 90% of the time and was wondering if I have it hooked up to my PC through USB cable and have it fully charged all day, is that okay to do?Meaning I rather siphon off the power from the PC instead of the battery which might conserve it in the long run from not cycling as much. I use to do that with my Iphone 3g and my battery was still good after using it for almost 2 years.I wasn't sure how the power management was handled on the Captivate meaning is it sucking power from the battery and it's constantly recharging or if it sees that it's connected via USB, it powers the phone from the PC or outlet.

This will be my first major smartphone purchase. I wanted to know if hot weather could ruin the phone in terms of overheating and what not.
I like to play a lot of sports outside so would there be an issue with the hot sun beating on this bad boy.

So my phone has this weird pattern of resetting about 2 minutes away from my house when I'm driving (happened in two opposite directions). It was just sitting in my pocket and I hear it reset (sometimes it reset multiple times on the same trip). I thought it was maybe the task killer running funny so I disabled it, and still it resets. Happens every time. I'm using Fresh 0.3 but it happened in earlier versions of Fresh too. Anyone else having this issue? Maybe it has to do with switching towers or something (in my house I get a very very very weak signal).

I recently picked up my EVO, and am loving it. Does anyone know if there are negative effects to leaving the phone on the charger? At work, I'm primarily in my office, and could leave the phone on the charger during the day and then it would always be full when I leave in the afternoon.

I have just received my HTC Desire, last week. It's my first Android toy.
I've noticed than when synching with Outlook Contacts on the PC, some fields are not copied to the phone, for example the 'car' field, which is an additional phone number field.
Other than this, My previous phone was a BB Storm2. At the moment, My opinion is that, THe HTC desire is faster than the bb, its browser much better, but for day to day 'real world' use, the bb is much much better. More reliable, and although less options, but gives you those that you realy need.

I was curious if anyone had any data on how much the battery gets eaten up by leaving bluetooth enabled but not active? I like to keep it enabled as it automatically connects with my car stereo when my engine is started. I do know that when connected it eats battery, but am hoping it's the opposite with it just enabled but not connected.

This is kind of a detailed question, but basically, I have been reading through some threads and came across someone who wrote that keeping the wifi turned on to 'never sleep' optimizes your battery life by a lot (instead of using mobile connection). So I set this up, but I also have the app Advanced Task Killer and I am trying to figure out if I need to set the wifi to the ignore list (so that it doesn't get killed everytime) or if Advanced Task Killer doesn't effect this.I am just trying to optimize my battery so I can actually use the internet without it dying on me so quickly. I charged it all night and literally 5 minutes after I unplugged it, my phone was down to 90% life.

So I was reading forums on how to better my Vibrant (hence so many posts by me in the last few days, ). I came across this somewhere online last night and again today on forum.xda-developers.com
Before I apply this on my Vibrant (I'm on page 6 reading user posts) I wanted to know if it's a good idea to leave GPS on at all times?
Does it drain the battery?
Does some other apps post your location on the web (like how facebook 'places' is starting to do now)?

how to set a profile of a location and have my phone compose a text when I arrive there. However, I only want this to happen if I have arrived at location B after leaving location A. Basically, its so when I leave my parents house and arrive back at my college dorm I want it to auto send a text but I do not want it to send the text every time I arrive at my dorm.

I recently purchased a USED S4 Active, and I am having an unusual problem with it.
I will leave my house in the morning. ALl during my drive to work, my data does't work. It's on, it just doesn't have "4g" at the top, and I can't use the internet, etc. Toggling the data does not work, neither does resetting the phone. About the time I get to work (after about a 15 minute drive), my data pops back on.
Today, at work, my phone connected to a stray wifi connection (One that I have used before, so my phone remembered it) just for a minute or two. Once it disconnected from the wi-fi, my mobile data was gone. Just like when I leave my house: It was gone for about 15 minutes, just like before, and then just popped back on like everything was OK.
I don't THINK this is an issue with my particular phone, but if it is I need to know so I can return it. I've searched high and low, but no one else seems to have had this problem. So I figured I would turn to the best!
Model: Samsung Galaxy S4 Active
Android version: 4.2.2
AT&T phone, but unlocked and working under the T-Mobile network.

Would leaving the screen on all of the time be bad for the longevity of the phone? I ask cause my phone stays in the dock for extended periods (days) on end. What is the expected life of the phone or shortest span component?

Well bought my phone 5/19 at a verizon store after playing with it awhile. Iphone been the only so called advanced phone ever used. The android system seems a bit overwhelming, but tired of ATT and apples heavy handed way of things. I dont mind the wait for the phone, using an old blackjack 2 pre paid till it comes i. Guess this will be around 6/13 or so.
Ill admit Im nervous leaving something I know to Android. Will I enjoy this if I dont root ( or jailbreak in iphone terms?). Never been a fan of doing anything to my phone that could hinder my warranty or getting help from the tech people of the phone. Im not the most tech savvy person. Ill keep reading these forums and ones like ti to try to learn. Any hints or tips be great. Also, how nice does android play with Mac-book Pro? My 2 laptops are both macs, but do have boot-camp on one if its needed for this phone.

Radio Shack had this phone on sale for $14 cash this weekend, I picked up a couple of them to setup to use for WiFi text/music/YouTube phones for my kids.
I have rooted them and now just want to get rid of the Virgin Mobile automatic profile update that attempts to happen when I power on the phone. If possible, I would like to permanently disable the cellular data/voice modem as well leaving WiFi enabled. What app I should disable/ remove through titanium backup to do this?
I have absolutely no intention of ever activating these phones for traditional cell service. They will strictly be used as WiFi android devices. Basically a cheapo alternative to an iPod.
I have set the phone for airplane mode and then enabled WiFi to prevent them from making calls, this is a reasonable solution but they could turn on the cell radio and start trying to activate, although they wouldn't get far as they don't have a way to provide payment anyway.
Problem is their mother isn't the brightest and when they are away at mom's, I would like to be able to text them and not be on the phone with her troubleshooting them constantly.
