I am building a android aplication which will be consuming a json file from the internet. This json file contains a list of news from a particular website. Each json object contains information such like title, summary, descripition and web links for the news thumbnail and the original image.
I will be displaying in a listview three information: the news thumbnail, the title and the summary. Here resides my problem. I dont want to load all thumbnails from the internet if they wont be displayed. What I am trying to say is that why download a thumbnail from the 30th news if the user wont scroll down the image. So, i will, initially only download the thumnails from those news that are being displayed in the screen and when the user scrolls down to see more news, as soon as the list item appers to the screen i want to download the image and then display.
Is there a way to achieve this? Is it possible to find out if the list item is on the screen? I have been searching all over the internet for a solution for this but i am running out of ideas.
I am just getting started with the Android SDK and I had a quick question. I am trying to set up a ListView with a rectangle of color on the left and then a bit of text for each row. I also want to make it so I can click each entry in the list and open a new activity to display some information (similar to the contact list).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to show the user a flattened pick list of all their contacts phone numbers and it must work from versions 1.6 up. I have read the related questions on SO and the Android documentation for Eclair (http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/contacts.html#legacy).
The problem is, even splitting my code into a factory class and specific implementations does not work for me because using Contacts.CONTENT_URI only shows contacts not individual numbers. What I need is this for version 1.6
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Phones.CONTENT_URI); startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_PICK_CONTACT);
And the equivalent for 2.0 and above.
Even if I get their example to work, by building against the 2.1 API am I not stopping my app being visible on the Market to users with earlier versions of the OS? I can't launch it against a 1.6 emulator, for example.
I would like to after I have updated by listAdapter I want to make sure that the list is scrolled all the way to the bottom so that it displays the last element entered in the list How can I do this ?I tried this but no luck.

I want my first screen to present the user with a list of activities to choose from. In my situation it is a recipe app where the user first chooses the type of food, such as, Beef, Chicken, or Pork. I want the application to launch an activity depending on the list item that the user clicked on. I am not sure if I should use a list view, a text view, a scroll view, a list activity, an activity group...
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen views with different type have same id and screen orientation changes,
either java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.AbsSavedState$1 or java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State will occur. (depends on the view's order)
Because View.dispatchRestoreInstanceState() checks id only.
You may wonder why anyone would make views with different type to have same id.
But it can happen when you use tab activity.
Imagine you have tab activity with two children activity.
Tab1 is ListActivity and Tab2 is ExpandableListActivity.
Both activity have id of "@android:id/list" but the type of view is different.
This means we cannot use ListActivity & ExpandableListActivit at the same in one tab activity.
I currently have a tab layout with 2 tabs, one tab with a list view and one with the option make strings so I can add them in the list view. Both tabs have their own activity because this made the code much more structured, and I dont have to repeat my self later.
Lets say im in the tab that offer me to create an string, and i press the update list button, how do I update the list view without startActivity()? If i use startActivity(), it starts List.java, and instead of displaying the list in the list view tab, it takes full screen, which defies the purpose of the tab view. In other words, the startActivity() steals the focus from the tab view of the list, and sends it fulscreen.
I want to update the activity in my list view tab, without starting a new activity that goes to fullscreen, and doesnt update the one in the tab.
I am trying to show a list of files using an ArrayAdapter into a ListView. As best as I can tell, the following should work but it is just leaving the ListView empty.
I am not using a ListActivity.

I want to display a listview when clicked be able to get the items key value. How would I go about that.

I'm completely stumped on this one. I have three different lists that need to be displayed on the screen.
I've tried using a ScrollView with a LinearLayout child, and putting my ListViews in the LinearView, but all of the ListViews lock to a fixed height with scroll bars. Using other kinds of Layouts means no scrolling.
I'm pretty new to Android development and would appreciate some help. All I want is to display a ListView showing a Twitter timeline. I do this in an iPhone app using MGTwitter but I've been trying and am not sure how to get the same effect on Android. I can use a list view, but I'm not sure how to get the updates.
In a nutshell all it has to do is display the updates at www.twitter.com/user (User will be hardcoded).
I am struggling on how to display all the contacts and all their phonenumbers in one ListView. Because the persons and their phonenumbers are in two seperate dbase tables I need to do two queries. First one, is to get the user _ID the second one is lookup the phones tabel and based on that _ID get the numbers. Using a Cursor and a ListActivity with a single query is not that difficult, but what to do in this case where I need to do sub queries. I tried building my own datasctructure, but that is to slow and to expensive to do every time. How do I go about this. The end result would look like this, where each number is separately click-able.

I have a String countries[].now when i click a button then on the onClick event this abc array is filled.suppose it is filled with the name of 10 countries.These 10 countries should be visible as a list so that i can choose any 1 country among the list. but i am not able to show them as a list.
My programme crashes if i use the following code :
CODE:...
As countries is filled later on the click of a button.So initially the countries array is empty and as the onCreate() is executed first it crashes.
I found the examples on net where there is pre-defined array.so it works.My array is filled in a onClick event.how can i display List at that moment?
How do you make those standard header labels in the ListView Control?
An example would be in the contacts application you see the first letter of the grouped contacts for each letter in the alphabet.
If possible provide some code snippets on how to construct the grouped data and the display of the ListView.
I would like to create a Home Widget containing a ListView, but I don't know if this is possible and if it is, how to do it. I was using a ListActivity and it was pretty simple, but can't figure out a way to do it using AppWidgetProvider.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I have a ListActivity and an Adapter how does Android handle a list with 200 elements.

I am making a time sheet program where a user inputs his in- and out-punches. I have a ListView that I am populating from an array of calendar objects. I would like each row to show the day and date then on a new line the time, but I only want to display the day and date if it is different from the previous element.Currently, I am setting visibility in the Base Adapter based on comparisons using position vs position-1 (which are used as indices to the array). This only works if the whole list fits on the screen. If it extends beyond the screen and the user scrolls around the results are unpredictable.To further confuse things, I am setting the color of the times, based on the position, to alternate between green and red (in/out) and it works as expected, scrolling or not.How does Android handle the ListView position when scrolling or what could I do differently to show/hide the day and date?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having a little difficulties while trying to get a certain layout to work: I want to have list. List does not have to be scrollable, but should be shown completely. But the page itself should be able to scroll (with the lists in it), if the total content ist higher than the screen.
CODE:.................
It only uses a small part of the screen (about 2 lines per list), instead of filling the available height, and the lists themselves can be scrolled. How can I change the layout to always show the whole lists but have the screen be scrollalbe?
There are some others applications doing this, like Twitter, Facebook, or even native applications such as Android Market. When you want to display a list of items retrieved from the internet, this looks like a standard way for displaying the user some notification about action in progress. This is a white background screen with an animated spinning wheel and a "Loading..." text. Does somebody know how to do this?. I've been able to do something similar with this code, but i don't like it too much yet.
