It would end up looking something like the PSP. You would think that this would be an incredible feature for gamers and any platform that was serious about gaming. Then we wouldn't have to use touchscreen controls, barely passable d-pads, or optical trackballs?

I am new to android dev, and had a question pop-into my head while looking at the pad control code for the emulator.So my game is controlled with the arrow keys (pad) in the emulator, when I put this onto an android phone, how will it be controlled then? Will I need to code in a "touch d-pad" ?? if so, are ther tutorials on how to code one?

The touch events are stubs just like onTouchEvents(MotionEvents ev){ empty };. All of the game logic and graphics draw code are in run() in an extends Thread class.
Just a quick question about the Captivate. I just got myself an HTC Aria and I love how easy it is to use the touch screen on it. Its extremely responsive. Now my sister has the SamSung Instinct on Sprint and the touch screen is horrible compared to HTCs touch on the Aria. Im thinking about taking the HTC back to AT&T and getting the Samsung Captivate. I am just worried about the touch screen on it and if it will be like the Instincts? If the touch is as good as HTCs Ill get it. If its not, then Ill stick with the Aria because despite its size, its an extremely fun and responsive phone. Any thoughts?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am new to android development. I wanted to make a button on one of my activities that I can drag to slide my current activity page to the next activity page. The button will be in the center of the screen and I want to be able to press and drag it horizontally to one end of the screen while I am dragging my button I can see my current activity page moving. It is actually like when one slides on the home screen and can control the sliding depending on how far he slides his finger on the screen.

Does anyone know if there's a camera app that has "on screen controls" for settings. Specifically i'd like to be able to toggle the flash without having to go back into settings all the time. Just a little flash on/off toggle on the screen, it's such a simple thing, would make life easier but none of the camera apps I've tried have it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis may be a stupid question but I didn't see it in the forum already - I really miss the music controls on the lock screen, which 1.5 and 2.2 had. I'm running KaosFroyo 38 and it doesn't seem to have this - at least not that I can find? Am I missing it in the settings somewhere, or is there an app or widget I can download?

My phone got a fair bit of water in it and after drying out, it powers up to the HBOOT screen but vol up/down do not work nor does any other button. Curiously enough the phone seems to recognize if I insert the usb plug but my computer says failed to recognize device/load drivers.
This is what the screen says:

I haven't found a solid answer for this yet.What I want is simple: music controls on the pattern lock screen.I don't want Widgetlocker or another lock screen replacement, which have given me problems and don't seem to be reliable. I just want to be able to pause/play/skip from the pattern lock screen.I am okay with binding physical buttons to this task if that's what it takes.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Motorola S10 bluetooth headset for listening to music. It's really nice not having to deal with cords and having controls for play/pause and track forward/back right on the headset.
However recently the controls have stopped working when my screen is off. I can't pause my music or advance track. I hear the 'beep' in my headset indicating that a button has been pressed, but my phone isn't getting or ignoring the command.
To make matters more complicated, it isn't a consistent thing. Occasionally the controls will still work with the phone off. This has been happening for a couple of weeks now and I'm having a very hard time finding any regularity to when it will or won't work. There doesn't seem to be a pattern. I also can't seem to trace it to an specific program that I recently installed.
I want to listen for the touch events from Lock Screen and Home Screen, is there any way i can tap those to my applications.

I am looking to add controls to adjust screen brightness locally in my app menu but can't seem to figure out how to do it. I have seen examples to max-out or dim brightness but I am looking to add controls so that the user can control and set the brightness level. Does anyone have any examples, tutorials, source code, or just a place to point me in the right direction?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm hoping for some pointers. I simply want two buttons.. nothing more, to allow me to control my music.I know, I know. "Why not just use the music widget?" Cause it's ugly (in my opinion).With Bettercut, I'm aware that you can create your own shortcut, but you have to have the source code or some sort of.androidaction.blah in order to create it. I'm just curious if I could use that or if there's something out there that's better.I don't need to know the artist or the song that's playing, I just, well, I miss the days of double clicking my home button and hitting next or stop with my iPhone. That's what it boils down to. So, if there's a way to get the music controls on the lock screen... well, that would even be better.Anyone have some suggestions? I have searched and searched for some sort of resolution, but it's been to no avail. Or, I could have just been searching for the wrong thing.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI bought a new droid for $20 haha lucky i think until i notice that the touch screen only works for the middle of the screen to the left so if yu cut the screen into thirds only the middle and left work assuming that yu cut it from top to bottom with the lights at the bottom for the home button etc. I opened it up cleaned all the flex cable with alcohol and waited for it to dry and it still does the same thing so my question is = do i need a new digitizer or is it a software problem or something that i dont even know?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a game built for 480x320 screen resolution. When playing the game on a phone with a higher screen resolution (480 x 800 or 480 x 856) the game automatically stretches to fit the screen which works great. Because of different screen dimensions there is a piece of the screen on the right side (game is in landscape mode) that is black, not used by the game. I want to fill this up with an image, so the whole screen is filled. I only draw that image on screens bigger than 480x320. This all works fine, the image is displayed exactly the way I want to. The only problem is that the game runs less smooth then it used to run. There are small stutters noticeable. When I just draw a rectangle instead of an image the same problem occurs. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?

Anyone know/come across anything that will do this? Does anyone know if this might be included in 2.2?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a game for android at the moment, and was wondering how i would change the screen depending on orientation.
So if the user turned the phone horizontally then the app would be viewed horizontally if you know what i mean

View 4 Replies View RelatedAlot of android phones use the capacitive touchscreen technology. I was wondering if there is away to access any sort of information related to this sensor.
In other words I want to get the voltage potential related to the distance that you push down on the screen.
I know this is probably really deep into the hardware technology and it's probably proprietary, but I want to know if someone has figured out how to access this data or if there is a way around it.
RT Actually I wanna detect the shape of touch point, i.e. the shape of finger touch on the screen
Seems that the only information I can get in touch event is the size of the touch point(by event.getSize())
By the implementation of the screen, the shape(and pressure of each point in the shape) of the touching finger should be the first raw data that the hardware can detect
So, how could I get these raw data?
