i'm using the default way to call the contact picker.
public void showContactPicker(View view)
{
Intent newIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(newIntent, 1);
}
but i need to select multiple contacts using checkboxes. how can i put checkboxes in the contacts list? is there a method that i can override that can add checkboxes and get the selected contact ids?

I'm trying to call the contact picker, get the persons name, phone and e-mail into strings and send them to another activity using an intent.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a custom dialog in my android application. I want to have in this dialog a field for choosing a phone number from contacts.
This example describes such snippet. However for this example contact picker is created inside an activity and I do not know how to do this if I do not have activity (in case of dialog)
This question1 describes a way how to show list of phone numbers and select one of them if my app needs a phone number. But image if I have a huge contact list, it is not enough to just show list but possibility for filtering (by contact's name) is also needed. Is there a standard way to show phones list with picking possibility and with filtering possibility? (I wouldn't like to invent my own) Is there a solution for the problem for sdk 2.0 and lower?

View 1 Replies View Relatedi'm having a problem (newbie one) with a CheckBox Listener AND a ListView. I need to request the '...long id) that passes through the Overriden method onListItemClick and put it into a OnCheckedChangeListener. How should i do that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have being playing around with expandable list views recently. I am trying to get a list view that has a checkbox as one of the elements of the child view.
I found this tutorial, http://mylifewithandroid.blogspot.com/2010/02/expandable-lists-and-check-boxes.html, and it seemed perfect. However when I compiled it and started playing with it I realised its very buggy. Checking a box in one group can cause a random box from another group to check or uncheck.,
This is the only tutorial I can find on this, It seems like a thing that would be used in a lot of apps, so I was wondering, is there any other good tutorial or resource out there that deals with this? Or even better, would anyone care to show their own code having gotten this to work...
I have a ListView, and within each list item I have some TextViews and a CheckBox. When I check a CheckBox and my onCheckedChangeListener fires, everything works as it should. However, random other checkboxes get checked once one is checked. Here is an example.
If I click on the first CheckBox:
8 is checked.
15 is checked.
21 is checked.
27 is checked.
33 is checked.
41 is checked.
Then if I scroll all the way up, none are checked until 6. The next being 13.
I want to add some checkboxes to a LinearLayout at runtime. The orientation is vertical and I want the checkboxes to appear at the bottom. I create each checkbox like this: CheckBox box = new CheckBox(this);
Then I add the box to the current view like this: addContentView( box , params ); What should be the params to get the effect I want? So far, everything I've tried ends up overlaying the new checkboxes on top of each other and on top of the other items in the layout. I want everything stacked in a column with the new checkboxes at the bottom.
I need your help. I'm really new to Android, developing in Eclipse with the latest 2.1 SDK. This is really simple. I make a ListView which is filled with Checkbox widgets. My code:..............
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a listview with some checkboxes. I want some of them to be prechecked when the activity starts. I have the positions of those checkboxes which needs to be pre selected.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGiven a listview that shows checkboxes next to a list of people, I want to be able to get the names (in Strings for example) of the people who are checked. I have set my listview mode to allow for multiple checks.
getCheckedItemPositions()
Will get the positions but I can't figure out how to iterate over the listview to get the names. Also Eclipse tells me that getCheckItemIds is not a valid method for ListView.
I have report which consists of 5 questions (there can be only one answer or multiple choice answer). Question are different for each report. So everytime I generate questions and answers as RadioButtons (one answer) or CheckBoxes (multiple choice answer)...But now I really don't know how to save those answers (I'd like to save to it as _question_id, _answer_id). How can I assign good _answer_id, to _question_id...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am facing a very mysterious Problem. I am using a ListView with CheckBoxes that can be clicked to select people. The row layout is the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <CheckBox android:focusable="false" android:onClick="onSelectPerson" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_marginRight="5dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> <TextView android:id="@+id/person_name" android:text="test" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:textSize="18dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> </LinearLayout>
As long as the amount of rows doesen't exceed the screen size (-> no scrolling) everything works just fine. But as soon as I have more rows then the screen size (-> some rows are hidden and have to be scrolled to). I have a very mysterious phenomenon: If I check the top row and scroll down some of the previously hidden rows are randomly checked too. If I scroll up again, again some of the before hidden rows are randomly vhecked (the CheckBox I clicked in first place may or may not still be checked). Also the registered onSelectPerson callback is only called for the CheckBoxes I really click. The other CheckBoxes just change their state to "checked" without calling the callback method. I have the same phenomenom on the Archos IT 5 and the Nexus One. This must have something to do with the ListView implementation but I can't quite figure out what the problem is.
I'd like to have a dialog box which prompts the user to select from various checkboxes, then confirm "Ok" or "Cancel". I have this working, but my only issue is the dialog always retains the previous checkbox selection state from the last time the dialog was shown. I'd like to always force the checkboxes to be unchecked (false) every time. Is there a way to accomplish this?............

I've been looking into the photo picker which I want to use as part of an application I am developing. I have set up the picker to respond to intents and have tested it in my application. However the way I am hoping to use the photo picker is to restrict it to a specific folder on the SD card. Is this possible, I have looked through the API/SDK and have not found the information I was looking for.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some 34 checkboxes on one Activity which i have to mark and unmark. and I want to save the status of the each checkbox.
I want this persistently. So should i have a sqlite table or preferences ?
If sqlite table is recommended, then what should be the ideal table structure design?
This application is called "Get Healthy". I have no clue of how to activate the checkboxes. There are four diffrent checkboxes listed and with every diffrent combination there is a diffrent calculation. For example, Calculating a User's Daily Caloric Intake
The daily caloric intake is the amount of calories that someone is consuming in order to maintain their current weight. This calculation takes the following characteristics into consideration:
male (checkbox) or female (checkbox)
active(checkbox) or inactive (checkbox)
I'm looking to create something EXACTLY like TimePickerDialog (look and feel) in Android, but it would be for MINUTES/SECONDS, not HOURS/MINUTES. Therefore AM/PM would not be relevant and would therefore allow MINUTE to be greater than 24 (making the max 59). Is it possible to change the TimePickerDialog instance in any way to reflect this?

If date picker is not possible in Android, an option to choose a date is needed.
I have created what I believe is a relatively useful color picker, derived and massively extended from the ColorPickDialog example in the API Demos. If anyone would like to try it out, it is available on the Market at Applications/Tools/UberColorPicker Demo". It didn't put it in the Demo section because it isn't a demo in the sense of being a free teaser of a nonfree product, if you see my meaning. If you like it, you can download the source from http://keithwiley.com/Downloads/AndroidUberColorPickerDemo.zip. Feel free to drop it -- ready-to-go and unmodified - into your own apps (I use it for setting text color preferences in Shead Spreet)...or to hack, extend, and change it however you see fit.
