I have a question on how to change icons back to the theme version after an app update. So after an app updates it changes back to the stock icon. Can I just reapply the theme and get the icons back to the themed version or do I have to wait until the dev updates the theme?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo it's widely known that soft resets of this phone causes problems with the icons as well as displayed program names.Has anyone noticed that soft resets also revert some of your programs back to earlier versions? The 2 I've noticed most often are Pandora and Mybackuppro. For example, the current version of Pandora is 1.1.1. When I upgraded from 1.1.0 in the marketplace, I installed over the old version and everything was working fine. After a soft reset, I noticed that the opening splash screen for Pandora listed 1.1.0, but the listing under my downloads in the app store didn't list an upgrade needed. I had to uninstall 1.1.0 and reinstall 1.1.1. I had that version on for about a week until I had another soft reset. Sure enough, I'm back to Pandora 1.1.0. The same thing happened with mybackuppro.This is far more irritating than screwing up the icons or displayed name, because this is actually changing what version of the software we're using.early adopters being the beta testers for mobile manufacturers and carriers.

Ex - At given fraction of time, native application is pointing to list of SMS (com.android.providers.telephony.databases.mmssms.db).
I want to point to different location, that might be com.android.providers.telephony.databases.mmssms1.db
I need to change Text( SMS) message content before save in in-box. Is it possible to change text message content in BroadcastReceiver?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been reading a lot of comments on how it is more lightweight to use views instead of intents in setContent when using tabs.
Since I will be creating an app with tabs, I am trying to implement this instead of having intents inside setContent. However, I am having a difficult time looking for examples or straightforward tutorials on swapping the current view with another one.
Say I have TAB_A, with some entry fields and a button. When the user clicks on the button, a TextView will display "Hello, user!" in the same TAB_A. Of course this is an oversimplified example, but it will surely point me in the right direction.
EDIT: I have a tab called TAB_A with a button in it. If the user clicks on that button, TAB_A will now display "Hello, user!" instead of the button.
Here is a sample of my TabSpec.
CODE:..............
Where ShowButton and ShowHello are classes both extending LinearLayout. Both are initialized in onCreate like this:
CODE:.............
When the app first starts, the user sees the view showButton. When the user clicks on the button, I want the tab to change its contents to showHello.
The question then is: Is there any way to update the contents of the tabspec without using startActivity?
If I create a content provider to service a live folder, and if this content provider is just a wrapper aggregating other content providers, how does the live folder know if the real content has changed somewhere down the line.
For example, I have a live folder that has items pointing to video, audio, and notes. Each item in the cursor (such as an aggregated matrix cursor) may be pointing to a different underlying content provider. But each item will have its own uri.
Does the live folder view register for content changes for each uri? Or is it the responsibility of the wrapper content provider to register for content changes and then notify its client the live folder?
Using ContentResolver and ContentObserver, it is possible to receive notifications in the function onChange() when some data is changed within the content provider. However, I fail to see if there is a way to see the URI which triggered the notification.
For instance, if I want to play a sound when someone deletes "Kara Trace" from my address book or whatever - how do I do that, if not by having another copy of the whole content provider dataset, and then comparing the old dataset copy with a new one? Can someone confirm me that the hard way is the only way?
I have a ListView in my android activity. And I populate the ListView by sub-class the BaseAdaptor (which returns a View in getView() method).
What if in my click listener of a button in a list item view, I change the text of the TextView in the List item view or change the dimension of the list item view by adding/removing children of the list item view
What is an efficient to refresh my listView? I don't want the listView to re-trigger a query since there is no data change.
I want to change the lower half of the screen when the user wipes with the finger, but got no idea how to start. The upper half with sone TextViews should stay fixed. Do I need more then one activity, or can I just change the layout portion on the lower half?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been asked to create an app to buy sell and advertise a product. I have chosen dvd's to keep it simple. Using the tutorials on the android developer site I have created 3 tabs one for PG films one for 15 and one for 18. Now in these tabs I want to have a button that then changes the content of the tab but keeps the tabs.
I have tried so many things and the only thing I have been able to do is start a new activity but that gets rid of the tabs :( and I have tried many other things been up all night trying to work this out. If someone could just point me in the right direction to how to go about this would be great. Is it even possible?
I've had my Droid X for a couple of weeks now and am still acquainting myself with things.
I downloaded Instant Upload (a nice, simple FTP app) that allows me to upload individual files from my "Files" browser directly to a web server... but I'm curious to know if I can add this as an option in my "Share via..." menu?
The "Share" menu has a bunch of options I will likely never use, but I do use some of them, and additionally I would like to add certain apps such as Instant Upload to the mix. Is it possible to manually modify this list?
I've three Tabs: mTabHost = getTabHost(); mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab_1").setIndicator ("Name1").setContent(R.id.tab1)); mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab_2").setIndicator ("Name2").setContent(R.id.tab2)); mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab_3").setIndicator ("Name3").setContent(R.id.tab3)); mTabHost.setCurrentTab(0); If the user click on tab_3, i want to call the function test(); . How can i set an onclicklistener on tab_3 or solve the problem on another way?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a layout which contains a TextView.
The content of the TextView might change on runtime. (discussed on a different issue here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3683727/layout-with-dynamic-position )
I can position the layout by drag&drop. If the size of the layout doesn't change, the position stays, but as soon as the size of the layout changes (because more text inside the TextView) the position is reseted.
I use the layout(left, top, right, bottom) to position the layout.
Now I don't know where I should add my layout() call to make sure it stays at the right position...
Here is my class

I am currently trying to customize ImageButton to show different draweables as background of the Button while keeping the image set via the src attribute.
That's my custom_button.xml:

I have this code for update:
public Boolean update() {
try {data.put(Contacts Contract.Groups.SHOULD_SYNC, true);
Content Resolver cr = ctx.get Content Resolver();
Uri uri = Content Uris.with Appended Id(Contacts Contract.Groups.CONTENT_URI, Long.parse Long(get Id()));
int mid = cr.update(uri, data,_ID+"="+get Id(), null);
// notify registered observers that a row was updated
ctx.get Content Resolver().notify Change(
Contacts Contract.Groups.CONTENT_URI, null);
if (-1 == mid)
return false;
return true;
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.v(TAG(), e.get Message(), e);
return false.
I implement ProviderTestCase2 to test my content provider functions. And when I insert huge number (about 10000) of data, the insert, delete and update functions are fine. But the query function will have SQLiteDiskIOOException: disk I/O error. And the data number limit of causing the exception is about 5000. Is it bug of content provider?
And there is another problem. Each of my data has different priority. When I sort my data by priority, its no problem. But when I change priority of some data and then sorting again. Sometimes I will get incorrect result and I'm sure its not logical problem of test program.
Its me again. I tried the last hours, how to change content of a spinner. ok, lets start from the beginning.
I have three spinners. They all have initial values. The first spinner is the main spinner and the other two spinners depend on the vale chosen in the first one. So i want to update the last two spinners after making a selection in spinner one. *edit: All spinners are on the same activity.
How can i achieve this? My problem is that i can only make changes in the spinners onitemselectadapter but thats a whole new class. I cannot reach the activity where my other spinners are.
i have a listview (i use a custom adapter) with 10 rows and each row has edittext how will i update the content of edittext on the third row after i edit the content of edittext in the first row.

I am new to Android development. I am using a x-platform development tool which builds and signs the APK for me. This tool has a bug and it does not generate APK's with the version code I specify, all APK's generated are version 1.0.
I would like to unpack the APK, edit the version code, and then resign and repackage it. It was signed using my keystore originally, so I have the keys needed to sign it again. How can this be done?
Just to give you heads up - there's new version of FB app on the Market with Inbox this time, but keep away until they'll fix the FC bug as most people (including myself) seem to have it.
