I got admob to work at the most basic level, and whenever the device is at the landscape orientation, admob tends to popup and occupy a huge potion of the screen.What is the best way to detect the orientation and hide the ads from displaying if it is in horizontal orientation? Is it necessary to put the admob application in a thread to check for change in orientation and hide/unhide it?
I'm new to Android, and have the Nexus One. Before getting it, I was planning on getting the Nokia X6, which has a very cool widget that shows pics of your contacts in a row on your home screen, and allows you to scroll through them.
I assumed there would be a widget like this for Android, but can't find one. All I've found are ways to put a single contact as a shortcut on the desktop, or a few contacts together. I really want it to be compact and scrolling though. Any ideas?
Here's a pic of the X6-- you can see the scrolling contacts widget at the top.
I loaded some images into a gallery. Now I'm able to scroll but once started scrolling the scrolling won't stop. I would like the gallery to just scroll to the next image and then stop until the user does the scroll gesture again.
This is my code

And the xmlLayout file

I am trying to teach myself the basics of Android dev. At the moment I am experimenting with home screen widgets. I would like to create a simple widget that lists all my bookmarks. Somewhere in my googling I read that ListView is not usable in a widget. What's the best way to display a scrolling list in a widget?
View 1 Replies View RelatedGallery in Android is only horizontal scrolling support. And we want make one with vertical scrolling support.
We got plans below. Can anyone give us some advice about which one is right?
1) Linearlayout ( We think it's bad)
2) ListView ( We think it's a good option and get a little worry about performance--too many pictures!)
3) subclass of AbsSpinner like Gallery and do something like Gallery source.
Which one is easy, time-saving and less performance or other problems.
I have an HTC Hero from Sprint in the US and was curious about the how the Stocks HTC widget scrolls text like a ticker. It is only the 4x1 sized widget that scrolls quotes. As far as I know, homescreen widgets can only use RemoteViews for the layout, which is limited to the following layouts and widgets (from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#Creat...
* AbsoluteLayout * FrameLayout * LinearLayout * RelativeLayout * AnalogClock * Button * Chronometer * ImageButton * ImageView * ProgressBar * TextView
Descendants of these classes are not supported.
I know that this could be done in an app with android.widget.scroller, but that can't be used in a homescreen widget. Would this functionality be specific to the Sense UI homescreen capabilities? I guess, my main question is if this can be replicated for a standard Android widget and if so how.
What is the best way to implement scrolling text (with behavior similar to that of HTML tag 'marquee')??
I've been trying to do this using TextViews + Animations but I'm having troubles primarily because of sizing issues. If my text is long enough that it exceeds the screen width, it won't be drawn completely (it's size will be chopped at screen width). Thus, when I animate it from right to left, only a part of the text will be displayed. This happens if I allow a maximum of 1 line in my TextView, because otherwise it makes the TextView have multiple lines. If I make it horizontally scrollable, the same 'chopped-off' behavior is seen.
I think this happens because the TextView's parent imposes some restrictions on its size. Is there a way to bypass these restrictions so that the TextView is 'drawn' even if parts of it will be off- screen?
If that's not possible, what's an alternative way of implementing this behavior?
I'm trying to remember the name of an app which is a scrolling dock widget. Similarly to Launch-X... But I'm pretty sure it is not Launch-X that I'm thinking of.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIts been a while since I've done any coding, I'm new to android, and unfortunately my first job is rather tricky. My program need to display horizontally scrolling text and images, but it need to set the scroll speed quiet finely. Now I've been looing at some examples with TextView and some also use android.widget.Scroller.
Now I'm pretty sure I'll have to write this from scratch, but what i want to know, is there a clear way that i should use in creating the class. I could try expanding on the TextView class and use its methods. Or should I just write a class to treat text and images the same?
I've been looking around for quite some time now, and I can't get a straight answer for my question. It's quite simple: How can I get a nice scrolling text just like the long app names in the Market when you select an application?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for the following that I haven't been able to find by searching:
-Widget with different sizes
-Widget will automatically slideshow from selected drawers at a set interval (with random as option)
-You can scroll through the photos by swiping, preferrably seamless (with launcher that allows scrollable widgets I guess) so you can scroll really quick
-Clicking a picture will bring you its source
Would this be possible (or is there such a widget already)?
I'm trying to find the horizontally scrolling app widget that is shown in the screenshot below. I saw this picture on another forum and I msged the poster however I received no reply so I decided to continue searching. The unlock slider looks very neat as well and would love to get my hands on it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI wish to make a scrolling interface. The screen is populated with images in the left one fourth and corresponding text for an image in the remaining three fourth. There will be n number of image-text on the screen and hence should be scrollable. Also image-text when clicked takes you to a new screen. I seem to be stuck and cant think about which layout should I choose. I am a beginner in Android Developing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt seems like the best way to create a horizontal scrolling list of images is to use the Gallery widget. I need to display sidebar text with each image.The examples I have seen showing how to use the Gallery widget only show images. Is it possible to display a list of images+text descriptions in a Gallery, and if it is, does anyone have an example of how to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble setting up an Android Layout.
What I would like is a scrollable ListView followed by a small bar of text (TextView) that doesn't scroll and always stays at the bottom of the screen.
it would look like this:
ListViewItem1
ListViewItem2
ListViewItem3
Bar of Text Here (always displayed irrespective of scroll state of the ListView)
I've tried a bunch of different variations on this, but none shows the static text

View 2 Replies View RelatedI really like my Evo but I find that some apps have banner adds at the bottom. The apps that do this include Astro, Stocks, Currency, Advanced Task manager Pro, AppBrain. The adds have written: "Adds by AdMob". How did I get these or is this normal? The adds really bother me, especially the religious ones.
View 19 Replies View RelatedI am trying to populate the text of a second EditText widget with the text from the first EditText widget only when the second EditText widget receives focus, the second widget is not empty, and the first widget is not empty. When I run it and click into the second widget it does not populate. When I remove the third constraint ('etxt.getText ().toString().trim() == ""')) it works. so getText() on the second EditText widget is returning something even though the second widget has no initial value other then the text that is displayed via the hint attribute.

View 49 Replies View RelatedOn my blackberry and all previous phones, I was able to customize a text banner, and I'm not finding a way to do it on my Motorola Droid. I usually put my email address on the lock/unlock screen so that if some honest person was to find my phone, they could email me to let me know they found it. Otherwise, it would just be lost. I know that there are theme apps that I can install, and I'm not sure if they have that capability, but if anything, I'd prefer not to have to download any apps to do this. I've also thought about creating a wallpaper that has that information in it, and setting that as my wallpaper. It seems like too much work.

I have tried everything.
a. Delete cache (dalvik and otherwise)

c. Removed add on sim and repeated above.
I have a rooted ICS (original install via Kies).
missing possibility to set the Cover Banner in Google Music.
I bought this song legaly over Amazon mp3 so the ID3 Tags are correct.
I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I can't find a link anywhere and their wiki just says "Copy the AdMob Jar file into that libs directory." but not where to get it.
