Android :: Implement Button In Widget?
May 6, 2009
I try to create a widget and I am now wondering how to be able to put a button on my widget and set its "onClickListener". It seems that we are limited to the RemoteViews... OK I can deal with that (but this is a limitat to me) but I'd like to add a button where the user can request an update on the data displayed in the widget. (I get some info on the web but the user only needs to request an update, I can't defined an automatique update, it's useless for my app) I'm sure we can do that since there is an example with a player and obviously with a PLAY/PAUSE button. I was looking for in the remoteViews API btu without finding anything.

I would like to implement a time settings wheel widget like the one iPhone has (http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/art/ui_datetimepicker.jpg). Should I use GlSurfaceView or just extend View? Should I make it as a compound View (it would consist of several Views) or draw everything on the Canvas in onDraw? In case I won't extend GlSurfaceView, how to do (smooth) animations? Start a Thread and call postInvalidate()?

I've been trying to make my app implement the built in quick search, similar to how it is done in ApiDemos' "app/search/invoke search". I have tried everything from trying to follow different examples, to copying the code exactly as it is in ApiDemos. All I've found for the former have been concerned with older versions of the SDK, and simply not worked. As for the stuff that I can actually run and see working in ApiDemos, I've tried copying the following
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchInvoke.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchQueryResults.java
com.example.android.apis.app.SearchSuggestionSampleProvider.java
res/layout/search_invoke.xml res/layout/search_query_results.xml
res/values/arrays.xml res/values/strings.xml res/xml/searchable.xml
And everything under "Search Samples" in AndroidManifest.xml
This copying gets me a view that looks exactly like the one I'm facing when running ApiDemos, but when I click the search button, in the quick search box, Android always just opens up a browser window, with Google search results for the given query. I simply cannot find the critical component in ApiDemos that tells android that I want to use my own custom code for handling the search request. Both documentation and other online resources seem very lacking when it comes to this.

I have an Android activity with an ImageButton. I would like to execute some logic when the button is clicked and show a different image for the pressed state, but also receive the touch event on the activity.
By default only the button receives the touch event. If I set the clickable attribute of the button to false then only the activity receives the touch event.
What's the best way to implement the touch event in the activity and the click in the button?

The xml contains a text and a button to delete the row of list.
Please let me know how to handle the button click in the ListActivity class.

I have a rooted Asus Transformer TF700 and got init.d working. I have it start eBay, Skype and Voice (I found the widget doesn't load until the app is started) with the sleep command in between each to ease the processor.
I would like to add a line at the end to return to the home screen. How I can implement the home button though adb shell?

Is there an app or widget that can be used to make a larger button? I'd prefer a 2x2 size that I can use to direct dial while driving rather than having to fiddle with the small 1x1 size, but anything bigger than the standard would be fine.
I've only found apps that make smaller buttons and one that makes me select subsequent options before I can actually call. I just want a large single press widget.

I have made a Android Widget which displays two articles (title + image). In addition to this, I have buttons for flipping backward and forward through the articles. What I don't understand is how I can change the Widgets RemoteViews when the buttons are pressed. Which should be one of the most basic operations in a widget, however, I can't seem to figure it out.
So... Can I do this with just a OnClickListener in the AppWidgetProvider? Or do I have to create an Activity without a window (visibility = false)?

I'm having trouble starting a Service to update an AppWidget that I'm creating as an exercise. I'm trying to get the latitude and longitude of spoofed location data from DDMS to display in the widget. The widget uses a service to update the TextView, which may be slightly overkill, but I wanted to follow the template that seems to be common in AppWidgets that do more work (like the Forecast widget or the Wiktionary widget).
Right now, I'm not getting any error messages or strange behavior; nothing at all happens when the button is pressed. I'm a bit mystified as to what might be wrong. Could anyone out there point me in the right direction?
Additionally, if my logic for location is faulty, I'd love recommendations on that too. I've looked at several blogs, the Google examples, and the documentation, but I feel a little fuzzy on how it works.
Here is the current state of the widget:

I saw this topic and implement IntentService as describes, but what if I want more that one button? How can I distinguish button from each other?
I'm trying to setFlags, but cannot read it at onHandleIntent() method code...
At this little piece of code I have two PendingIntent linked with setOnClickPendingIntent, can I distinguish this intent for different actions and processing?

I have a very simple widget application which consists of a linear layout with a background and an image button. In the AppWidgetProvider on Update method, I register the click of the button to broadcast an intent. When the widget first loads, everything runs fine and the click is captured. The problem occurs when the screen is rotated, and the click is never captured again even if the screen is rotated back. What do I have to do to re-register the click when the screen rotates? below is some segments of code I am using.
AppWidgetProvider
@Override
public void on Receive(Context context, Intent intent)
{super.on Receive(context, intent);
if(intent.getAction().equals("test.CLICK"))
{Closemouthed(context);}}
@Override
public void on Update(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager,int[] appWidgetIds)final int N = appWidgetIds.length;
// Perform this loop procedure for each App Widget that belongs to this provider for (int i=0; i<N; i++) {
int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i]; RemoteViews views=new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget);
Intent click intent=new Intent("test.CLICK");
Pending Intent pendingIntentClick=Pending Intent.getBroadcast(context, 0, click intent, Pending Intent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.change_mode, pendingIntentClick);
SetInitialLayout(context);
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, views);}
super.on Update(context, appWidgetManager, appWidgetIds);}
Manifest
<receiver android:name=".Widget" android:label="@string/widget_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.ACTION_APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE" />
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
<action android:name="test.CLICK" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/widget_mode_switcher" />
</receiver

I have a homescreen widget with an imagebutton. I have the button working with a pending intent, but I can't seem to figure out how to change the button image when it is pressed. I tried using a selector and it works in my widget test activity, but not in the remoteview. How could I implement this functionality in the home screen widget?

I'm creating my first widget and ran into a snag. I have several buttons on this widget and need a way to register an onClick action for each of the buttons. So far I've only found examples where they start a configuration activity from a widget button. Does someone have example code on using buttons in home screen widgets?
