My application has some buttons in the bottom part of activity layout, almost the same like iphone has on ipod app for example. I would like to create my layout so that it will self adjust on different screen sizes.
For example if the content in my layout has height = 400dip and the menu bar in the bottom has height = 100 dip, on every screen size (240*320, 320*480 etc.) i would like the menu bar to stay at the bottom so :
- on screen size 240*320 -> 100dip - for menubar -> 220dip - for content => it remains 180 dip to show, so this content area should be in some kind of a scrollview so that i can view 400dip in only 220dip.
I have tested different possibilities, with relativelayout so that the menu bar could stay on bottom, but i could not put the scroll view on top so that the scroll appears only on small screen sizes.
This is so sick, how do you build your layouts for different screen sizes ?
I need to create 3 things:
Content Provider
Service
Application
I'm wondering if these all three will be in one single project, or they will be three different projects?
Also how can I limit my Content Provider to my services and my applications?

So through a weird assortment of events i managed to crack the screen on my Eris. But this is the trippy part, I didnt break the glass but the touch sensors underneath. So now i am unable to use the menu or home buttons and the entire left part of my screen and more. I am unable to unlock my device in anyway that i know(menu button, the slider). Is there any other way to unlock it? I now have 11 unread texts and 4 voicemails that I desperately want to view. Oh and I know some of you won't be happy about what I'm about to say but.... I took the leap to the moto droid. I had the chance to get it on a 1 year because I didnt get insurance and I went for it. I will really miss my Eris but the keyboard lag was just killing me.

View 1 Replies View Relatedduring music (mp3) playback, the application will close part-way through a track for no reason. It might happen on the first or the fourth track, but at some time during playback the music will stop and when I look at the phone there are no apps running. I've been listening to mp3's for a few days now and I've tried using both the standard Music Player and the doubleTwist player but I keep getting the same problem.
I've tried playing music from internal and external SD storages, and I don't have any other apps running at the same time. I wait a minute after the player stops before re-opening the player and playing the same track that stopped from the start and it plays through fine. I found a few posts that discussed music playback problems for the Galaxy S and other phones running 2.1, but they all seemed to relate to actual playback problems (i.e. brief silences or pops and hisses during playback) rather than the player itself stopping.
Is it possible to attach Menu to an application rather than each activity in the application? I have 20-23 activities in my application and it doesn't make sense me to add same menu to all the activities.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for suggestions on how to go about adding a ListView selector that is 'permanent'. By this, I mean a single row in the ListView is always highlighted; it should move up or down in reponse to any D-pad presses (i.e. like the default selector) but also remain set/highlighted if the user were to scroll the ListView in either direction (i.e. it's still highlighted even when it's off-screen).
I've looked at using the standard selector mechanism, but am unable to get the selector to remain in place if the ListView is touched (and thus scrolled), so it makes me think that this isn't the best option? Perhaps there's a <selector> "state_*" that I've ignored?
The other option would be to use the onItemSelected() callback, but at first look this appears more convoluted?
Any suggestions/recommendations/experiences gratefully received.
I am developing an app which has one service running in the background even if the application is closed. This service basically listens to the server via socket connection. It is an app's requirement to keep one consistent connection open. but this drains battery liek anything. I know socket is costly affair in the sense of battery life. Do anybody know any other way to keep communication channel open? or any optimization in using socket?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHere's what I'm attempting to do. I have a menu and when a user selects a particular option in the menu I want the browser application to open and display the web page. However, I cannot seem to do this. My application uses a TabWidget to display its content (which works perefectly) but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to open a link into the browser. I have tried adding a WebView to the TabWidget (but when I request it from the view by findViewById(...) I get a null.
I've also tried creating a separate view and performing a setContentView(...) and then I get an exception. I've also tried using an intent I've seen demonstrated on this group. It seems like this should be fairly easy, but I must be missing anything. I've looked at the sample apps as well as the Apps-for- android samples and have followed them to the T, yet still to no avail I cannot get the browser to open (or anything like that).
I've been having internet troubles since i got my Hero a few weeks ago.
It seems to jump between '3G' and 'H' when I use any applications using the internet. This means that pages often fail to load/download, or appear slower than 2G connection speeds.
I think this is because I'm in an area which can just about receive HDSPA speeds sometimes, but not consistently, so I was wondering if there's any way to set the internet to stay at 3G and not attempt to connect to HDSPA? When I'm in areas where the best speed possible in 3G, the internet is infinitely faster than when it's jumping from 3G to H and back.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to sync a rostering app between two devices using dropsync. The .db files that need syncing are in the /data/ data/com/databases directory. Using Root explorer I can change the permissions to give full rw permission to others. The two .db files will then upload to the dropsync server.The problem is that whenever the app is opened and anything modified, the permissions change back to default and thus dropsync can't access the modified .db... Is there anyway to change this or am I wasting my time? what is the 'sticky' box option in RE?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was able to root Karbonn A37 (MTK6577) using the software from t URL.....After the root process it instalsl this app - URL.....This app is in Chinese and it manages all the root permission requests as well as installs its own su and some other files.
I have tried to root using many other methods available here and only the above method was successful. After rooting I tried installing SuperUser and found that su is always getting overwritten. I would really love to use the standard English version of su and superuser, but if I uninstall the the Chinese app, the root access goes away.
Any way to make root permanent without the Chinese app and mange root permissions using superuser. Also what is this Chinese app doing, that none of our other rooting methods are not able to do?
I want to sync my Facebook images INTO Google contacts. Is there something that will do this?
"Contact-Sync" or "haxsync" do not do the job as it relies on simply joining contacts and display correctly for only one phone/rom. Problem is that the image is only linked on your phone but not really linked directly to google contacts.
Setting an image to a contact from a file appears to do the trick but there is no way that I know of to automatically set a facebook picture into google contacts.
I am working on a project for a school system where they want to used deactivated donated phones in the classroom for WiFi access only.They will be reset to Factory Defaults, so we'll need to get pass the Activation screen.
It will be a variety of phones so that is why I am posting this here.It appears there are several different ways of bypassing the screen.I seriously doubt that they will allow Rooting of the phone, but I will pass it along as a suggestion.
Seems like the most common is the 4 corner clockwise tap. This seems to work for HTC and Motorola.What I cannot find is if this is permanent or not? If the phone Is powered off and then back on, does this have to be done again or is it once and done?I've read both, but without device in hand, I cannot confirm or deny.
Is there a list out there for all the models that support this?Samsung looks like you have to dial *#83786633 But this does not seem like a permanent solution--has to be done every time.Permanent seems to Root and delete or freeze phone.apk or setupwizard.apk?
I have been unable to do anything permanent to my sd-card. I was on my vacation so all my vacation photos were deleted. It is writable, I can delete, write and change as I want but when it's rescanned all changes (delete, write etc...) were never made and it sets itself back to the 23rd. Now I have access to my computer so I formatted the sdcard hoping it would fix it. After I put it in my phone all files popped back up. So my case is:I cannot make any permanent writes/changes to it.
Formatting doesn't seem to work. Once again, it is writable (Temporarily), i took a photo and pushed it into the /system partition, it was there but not on the sdcard after reboot. Root explorer have options for mounting it R/w and R/O (It doesn't normally do that).
