Android :: Flick-scrolling Contacts Widget
Jan 10, 2010
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
CODE:.............
And the xmlLayout file
CODE:..................

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?

Gallery 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.

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.

I 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.

I can flick the history of messages but I seem unable to stop the scrolling once it starts and end up just waiting for it to come to a stop. Is there no way to just point and have it stop instantly? I thought this was working so did I inadvertently turn something off?

I know there are several scrolling stock ticker widgets available but I haven't found one that allows you to interact with the widget to scroll it back and forth as well. Any app with this functionality?

I need a widget on my htc wildfire, one that looks like the People Widget but only for the Phonebook contacts and not FB or other social networks. I have tried so many but none are good enough.
Any suggestions? Or is there any way to make the People Widget display the phonebook contacts only?

all my contacts are google contacts with several linked to Facebook accounts.When I access my contacts through the People widget, all's good, I only see the google contacts (I've deselected Facebookers in the view menu). However when I access the Messages widget all my contacts are doubled up for some reason. I realise this list is also showing facebook contacts as well as google contacts but even the non-facebook contacts are doubled up.

Got the OTA like everyone else and everything works great. The ONLY thing I have realized is that my photo Gallery (the stock one) is running SOOO slow. I used to be able to flick through the photos without ever coming upon a grey square (with no pic). Now, after a strong flick, I get nothing but grey squares. They eventually load into pictures, but it takes about 3 - 4 seconds before they load. Any ideas? Could it be there are too many pics in the phone / card or is this as a result of the update?

Sometimes when scrolling down on a page (using my finger to scroll) the page will scroll all the way to the bottom of the page with a single flick of the finger. Am I unintentionally doing a specific gesture with my finger that causes this to happen? Or is this just a bug at this point?

Recommend a good favorite contacts widget that can have photo?
Or something like making contact shortcut to the home screen.
There is Person widget by HTC, but it is awful (the photo is too small).

I have so far found two bugs in Galaxo 1.6.3:
a) Speaker doesn't work in call (very weak). works well in ringtones etc.
b) Scrolling contacts by letter doesn't work.
Other than that this is a leap forward, especially with the overclock options!
Both bugs, as well as others, fixed in 1.6.3.1 update!

I have one GMail account synced to my EVO. When I open up 'People' all my contacts I added through GMail are there. Looks great.
However, when I go to the Favorites widget and click + to add a contact to the widget, I get a list of pretty much everyone I've ever sent an email to through my GMail account. I only want my real contacts to show up there, I don't need the dude listed there that I sold my blender to on Craigslist from 5 years ago.

Got a Desire last week, and it's my first smartphone so am on a bit of a learning curve, but the phone does rock.
Anyway, I'm a little confused with regards to the People Widget.
I have it configured on one of my home screens and its linked to my Gmail contacts account. I have set my favourites (grouped as 'Starred in Android')
and synched the favourites to go to that group when you first set it up.
Now, the phone also has 3 duplicate contacts in the list - all of the duplicates look like they've come from Facebook, but I can't get rid of them from the list.
At first I thought that the phone was trying to synch my gmail contacts with my facebook contacts, but then it hasn't done all of my Facebook contacts that match the contacts in my Gmail.
I'm a bit confused as to how they've got in there.
I've tried resysnching Gmail and Facebook, removed the People widget and re-added it, I've checked everything in my Gmail contacts but can't see anything un-toward, I've tried having background data sync enabled and disabled whilst trying to remove these to no avail.
I still can't seem to remove these 3 duplicate entries.

In 1.5, there was a htc widget that you can put on your home screen and add your favorite contacts to it, and it allows you to choose the action of calling or texting when you tap on their pictures.
I couldn't find this widget anywhere in 2.1. Also, is there any app/widget that is similar to the one im talking about from 1.5?
