Is it possible to add extra languages to Android? My current Android phone only supports English and Chinese language input. I would like to have Dutch also, as I can use it for word completion. The question on top of that is, how to switch easily between these languages in the text input (keyboard) GUI?

Does anyone know of some alternative JVM language, however obscure it might be, which can compile to plain old java bytecode, without the need of a language runtime.I need this in order to try to develop android applications without startup or size penalty. Scala, Clojure and Groovy all require its own runtime library distributed with the application, so they are out of the scope of this question.The only one language which claims to satisfy this goal is Charles Nutter's Mirah, but I couldn't make it to work on windows.To clarify a bit, I know any language has to have runtime library. Obviously, what I am looking for is a language that has no additional runtime required besides JRE, or at least very limited one.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought an HTC Magic today and, as I always did with other phones too, set the language to english. The problem is I happen to write a lot of messages (email and SMS) in italian too.Is there a way to set the completion language separately from the GUI language? Even better if during the editing of a message would be possible to switch the language, as possible with Nokia phones.Please note that in the subject I mentioned erroneusly T9 which has nothing to do with completion, as I now learned.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to change my region/language setting independently from the general LANGUAGE-SETTING in settings !!!
Ok that means i dont care about the language my apps will be displayed in as long as it is english "which should be in every rom.."
But i do care about the region they are set in... means when i start MIUI News/Weather (geniewidget.apk) I want to see News from Germany and temperature in Celsius..
When I play "who-becomes-rich" I want Euro for currency! and so on ...
Is there any way to set the region like that ? (build.prop or anything else..?)
Im using MIUI v4 with my G-Nex.
When I run my app, I see about 8 or 9 icons in the main phone menu. One is to run the app, and the others actually run activities within the app.I want there to only be one icon for users.Any ideas as to why this is happening?My code is structured similar to examples from the book "Android - A Programmers Guide" by JF DiMarzio.How do I hide the other icons so users have to start at the main menu screen?

I've built a widget that uses a LinearLayout and I've put two TextViews in the layout.
The gravity of the layout is "top".
The problem is that I get a space between the two TextViews and I can't get rid of it.
CODE:....................
As you can see I tried putting padding 0 and verticalSpacing 0 but I still get a space between them.
When I created a button view, Android always create some extra space between this button and other views below it.
In this example below, there is a button above the second button. You can see the gap between these two buttons. How can I get rid of this gap?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to pass an object from an activity to another activity. In the first activity i do:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondsActivity.class); intent.putExtra("package.class", SerializableObject);
And in the second activity:
Class object = (Class) extras.getSerializable("package.class"); objetc.modifySomething(2432);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ThirdActivity.class); intent.putExtra("package.class", SerializableObject);
But if i modify the object in the second activity, it fails when i send this object to a third activity.Why does it fail? What am i doing wrong? I just need to pass objects between diferent activities because i have an object which contains many information, and creating a Boundle would be very big and ugly in my code.
The product I have in mind is a Android phone with 32 GB of internal storage, plus the usual microSD expansion slot.

I am a very HEAVY sleeper and the old beep doesn't work for me. I have tried just about every alarm clock that says "Extra" Loud. Though all they do is beep and music generally doesn't work. Though the palm centro had a alarm that if I set the 5 alarms and had them playing each 32x times per alarm as loud as possibly set apart 5 min. by the end of the 25 min of alarms I could manage to hopefully get up. The tone was called treo for those of you that possibly know that tone on the palm os. The only way that I can think of to describe it, was a bell that rang and it hurt your ear drums like it made your ear twinge if that makes sense. So is there an alarm on the market place that could possibly be this irritating or possibly worse?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm writing an application for Android phones for Human vs. Human chess play over the internet. I was looking at some tutorials, to learn how to develop Android applications and found a very nice example of making galleries (it was a GridView usage example for making a gallery about dogs) and the idea came to draw the chess table using a GridView, because the example project also handled the point & click event and I intended to use the same event in the same way, but for a different purpose. The game works well (currently it's a hotseat version), however, I'm really frustrated by the fact that whenever I rotate the screen of the phone, my GridView gets hysterical and puts some empty space in my chess table between the columns. I realized that the cause of this is that the GridView's width is the same as its parent's and the GridView tries to fill its parent in with, but there should (and probably is) be a simple solution to get rid of this problem. However, after a full day of researching, I haven't found any clue to help me to make a perfect drawing about my chess table without a negative side effect in functionality.
