I' d like to fire up onKeyDown() event from my source code (for example from Activity). I want it, because i'd like to create program for remote keyboard, which will be PC keyboard. PC will send to mobile throw Socket message and mobile will fire up event from message in socket. Message will contain pressed key on PC keyboard. In future i'd like to create service, which will be starting on device power on .

I've created a simple android game, based on the Lunar Lander sample, and I'm having a problem with handling key events.When the activity starts, the only keys that onKeyDown or onKeyUp get called for are the dpad up/down/left/right keys.Neither the menu, back, or dpad_center keys trigger onKey methods. However, once I've pushed one of the dpad up/down/left/right buttons, pressing the menu, back, or dpad_center keys do trigger these methods. I'm not getting any errors, or any indication of what's going wrong.It's possible that the focus is set wrong - the activity is started from a button on screen, so it could be in touchscreen mode. If that's the case, shouldn't touching the back button get me in to the right focus mode so that I can catch the event?I'm using the emulator from SDK-1.5r3.I have not been able to try this on a real phone yet.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat I'm basically trying to achieve is custom global hot keys or in other words 'things will happen when I push certain buttons no matter which program is currently on top'.I assume a service is needed.I have a quick and dirty test that just tells me what has been pressed that will work if it is the active window.But obviously if I change window or go into a text box it doesn't work. If I stick it directly into a service (or an imputmethodservice) and launch said service nothing happens. (Some permissions required maybe?)Any suggestions where I'm going wrong?Or a better way of capturing which button is pressed?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to override the behavior of a TabActivity that has other Activities as children. I have made all of the children activities return false in onKeyDown so that the key will propagate through to the parent.However, this is not the case.The only key that is being recognized is the search key.Back, menu, and home are not being overridden.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a proble with onKeyDown: my activity consists in a simple textView (as header) and a ListView below it, I need to go back to the previous screen when the user presses the back button.Thus, I implemented the onKeyDown method. Everything works fine if the list contains some elements, but when the list is empty the onKeyDown method is never called.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the ListView, the space key is available as an onKeyUp event but not as an onKeyDown event.Is it possible to override the ListView's default response (i.e., page down) to the space key?The reason I ask is that my application's ListView scrolls to the text (including space characters) the user enters.Although I can implement my application's ListView scrolling based upon characters from onKeyUp(),that results in unwanted list jumping anytime the user types a space.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an activity which overrides the onKeyDown method. The documentation states the following about onKeyDown: "Called when a key was pressed down and not handled by any of the views inside of the activity." The problem I have is that this method is being called even when the views inside the activity handle it. I have a button implementing a longPress listener. What I see on debugger when long clicking on the button with the center key is that first onKeyDown from the activity is called then the longPress listener from the button gets triggered. Even for Textviews, when long clicking on it with the center select, the activity onKeyDown gets triggered before the TextView processes the longclick (and shows the Input Method context menu).
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if there is a way to override the onkeydown for an edittext view without making your own class? I just want my user to type something in and hit enter, i put up the flag so enter doesn't actually do anything now, but I want it to launch a function ive made.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 3-4 activities in the application and all of them have some event listeners that work nicely.
However only on one activity i simply can't get the event handling to work.
I tried the solution from this thread:http://www.anddev.org/view-layout-resource-problems-f27/ontouch-not-called-t16578.html
It doesn't work for me. I tried to manually set OnClickListeners for ImageViews from java code, android:onClick from XML.
It seems that some other component handles all the events, or my activity doesn't have some permission to handle events.
Should I put something in the AndroidMainfest.xml for my activity that enables handling events?
Hope someone has the idea what should i try, here's the code:
Activity:
CODE:........
Layout:
CODE:............................
Calendar c = new GregorianCalendar();
c.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 1);
c.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 23);
c.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 22);
c.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
c.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
// We want the alarm to go off 30 seconds from now.
long firstTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
firstTime += 30*1000;
long a=c.getTimeInMillis();
// Schedule the alarm!
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)ctx.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP,
c.getTimeInMillis(), 1*60*60*1000, sender);
It is not executed at 23:22h. What I am doing wrong? I noticed firstTime and c.getTimeInMillis() differs a lot in size and length. When I use firstTime, so when set to 30 seconds, the alarm is executed well.
I have an activity, where the ListView holds customized linear layout elements for each row. One of the rows has a button defined as:
<Button
android:text="Pick a contact"
android:id="@+id/btnPickContact"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"></Button>
Then in java, I have this code:...............
I am having an Android view with a Spinner on it. I call a populateSpinner() method to add some default values to it.
I also have a onItemSelected() event which gets called before the view is completed to print.
I would like to run a code inside this block only when the user changes the selected items, not when I add or the form gets created.

2. Opened KFFA using cmd
3. Used option 21 : Alternative root: newer devices

View 1 Replies View Related I got my Dad's old Motorola Fire XT530 recently. The thing is, he used the phone for around 2 weeks and then switched to a BlackBerry. He kept the phone switched off and locked up in his office bag. I fished it out yesterday and tried to switch it on, but it wouldn't even switch on. I connected it to the wall outlet and left out there for a while. The screen never turned on, but the lights on the soft keys below the screen did light up, so I assumed that it must be charging.
Anyway, after a while, I removed it from the outlet and switched it on, but it wouldn't boot up at all. Then I tried getting it into recovery and download mode, but it just wouldn't turn on at all. The device wasn't rooted, and I don't know what could have gone wrong that would make it like this.
I want to start developing for this device, seeing as there isn't even a decent ROM for this. I don't want to send it to the Motorola service centre; I have issues with them as it is.
I have a Kindle Fire HD and would like to install a SwiftKey keyboard on it. I am told that this is possible but in order to accomplish this I need to 'root' the device. And once installed I can unroot the device again.

Im Running Android 2.3.7, and the min requested by the app is 2.3+
A friend of mine has the xt311 motorola fire. It keeps bugging her for low disk space (the internal memory is almost full indeed, and all apps that can be moved to SD have been moved).
After some research, I read that some logs could munch too much space and that by entering the mmi code * # 9 9 0 0 # you get to move the logs to the SD. Unfortunately, the code doesn't work and returns the error "connection problem or invalid mmi code".
The other solution should have to be rooting the phone and partitioning the SD then expanding the internal memory to it with link2sd. But I read about a few problems people are running into with this method. So I would like to know if there's another way to resolve this troubling limitation of the xt311.
I tried to install icecream sndwitch on my kindlefire by following the instraction of the website. (liliputing.com).

Wipe Cache/Dalvik------------------ Main Menu----------------------------Reboot System
After installing the USBWOOT.zip by using TWRP, i hit the reboot system, but my kindlefire can not boot with newly installed android os. my kindlefire continue to get in TWRP again and again. I checked boot file on my kindlefire by using android-sdk-linux, but there is nothing in it.
How can i boot my kindlefire again? I think that installing icecream sandwitch is the last resort to use my kindlefire, because amazon does not offer os recover instractions and files.
Where can i download official/stock rom for Motorola Fire XT311?
