I have this at the top of my application. When the application starts, the EditText is orange highlighted and has a cursor in it; when the EditText is tapped, the soft keyboard pops up. The user uses it to type into the EditText.
However, when they click the Button, my onClick method fires and does everything it's supposed to, however the soft keyboard stays on screen and the EditText is still highlighted with its cursor.
I also have, at the top of the Button onclick: findViewById(R.id.name).clearFocus();
In spite of this, the EditText does not seem to clear its focus. How do I make the button actually act as if it is submitting the form?
Also, I do not transition to a different Activity on the click of the Button. I suppose that is the typical case, and probably the reason why they don't bother hiding the keyboard. However I want to keep the search box and button at the top of the screen, so I just dynamically fill and add views to the screen when the Button is pressed. How can I achieve my desired behavior?
This may be a little odd but I'm sure my first Droid had a button on the on the onscreen keyboard that had the smiley face on it.When you hit it it may a little android smiley face in the text area.My new Droid doesn't have this on it.or am I just losing my mind?

I have called the startActivity(intent) and the new activity loads. How do I go 'back' to the calling activity once a button is pushed. 'Popping' the activity off the stack basically.
I want to make the edittext width the same size as button. My EditText is currently very small. I use relative layout.
<TextView
android:id="@+id/aha4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="17dip"
android:text="Vzdevek:"..............
I am 99% there. I need to have a Edittext beside a Search button. The EditText should fill as much of the width as possible, the button should be to the right and be just big enough to have it's text
It looks like this now:.................
In android, my app provides a button that the user can click to return them back to the screen that appears when the app is opened (onCreate). How can I set that button to return the user to the main menu?

In the Hierarchy Viewer the text field has a absolute_y of 30 while the button has 32. Please see screenshots of the Hierarchy Viewer here: http://picasaweb.google.com/sj1981/Android

I have this EditText and Button, and I have to reduce its height. I try with android:height="10px" but it doesn't work. Btw android:width="180px" works OK, then I don't know why I can't adjust the height.
Here is the code:....................
i have an EditText and a Button in my LinearLayout and i want to align them closely together so they see seem to belong together (edittext + micButton for speech input). Now they don't have the same height and they aren't really aligned well (button seems to be a little lower than the EditText). I know I can apply a negative margin like -5dip to make them come closer together, but is there perhaps a better way to do this? Set them in a specific container/layout so that they will automatically have the same height and no margin between them?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm getting null pointer exceptions when I try to initialize Button and EditText objects in global scope, can't figure it out. I've commented out everything but the bare minimum for the app to display my layout, but this still causes a crash: private EditText addmoney = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.addmoney);
R.id.addmoney definitely, definitely exists. So what the heck? Is it impossible to declare EditText in global scope? I need to be able to call it from both onCreate and onPause in a class extending Activity, is there maybe another way I should be doing this
I have 2 EditText01 and 02. My button will be disable once the activity is started. And when these two EditText box got text inside, the button have to be enabled back. However my button is always disable and can't enable back using, button.setEnabled(true);. code...

In emulator, size of edittext and button looks nice but in motorola milestones, both of them are so small. I think there are different types of screen layout. Is it possible to adjust the size automatically?

I have a setup view where the user can enter their name and email and click done when they are finished which navigates them to another activity1. When they are in activity1, and they hit the soft back button on the phone, it takes them screen where they entered their name and email. However, the name and email EditText fields are blank. In the view where the name and email are entered I looked to see if onStart, onCreate, OnPause, onResume,... where being called after the back button was hit, but they are not. Do you know how I can make it so that the EditText fields have the information that was previously entered.

View 18 Replies View RelatedI've set up a horizontal scrolling system to move between 5 different Fragments, at the moment pressing the back button on the phone/tablet will exit the app. This happens on all Fragments.
getting the back button to move to the first fragment. So Fragment 2, 3 , 4 and 5 will all move to Fragment 1 when the back button is pressed.I've been looking into Fragment transactions but I can't get them to work, I guess I just don't understand it that well yet. Maybe it's not the correct way.
I have the horizontal scrolling thing set up in the usual way. Each Fragment has it's own Java file, there's a Fragment pager adapter. based within a FragmentActivity.
I have been searching for an application to replace the need to press the power button up top in order to get the screen activated so that I can start using my phone once the screen powers off. I am hoping there is some kind of application that can do this just by changing the way the phone is held like if its accelerometer changes by a certain number of degrees or something like that.

So I'm new to Android OS and the Droid X. I'm on the $54.99 plan that's just data/text, so I don't pay for any minutes. So I was wondering if it's possible to change out the capacitive phone button on the main screen to something more useful for me, or would I need something a little beefier than root access, like a whole new rom?
Also, would it be possible to create a capacitive back button on the screen to replace the mechanical back button?
I have a smiley on my status bar (top of screen where netowrk singal, etc is). It just showed up today and isn't going away. I don't have any notifications.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI just installed ChompSMS and I have already been using Better Keyboard. I type in vertical mode using t9 and the smiley face has always been there in the bottom right corner (while using default messaging application)
Now I installed ChompSMS and can't get the smiley face back, right now it is an Enter arrow. I have a Droid if that matters.
I have a bunch of EditTexts in my Android application, each with InputMethod set to numberSigned. My target device does not have a hardware keyboard and thusly uses the software keyboard for numeric entry. Android attempts to be user-friendly and replaces the standard "Done" button to the right of the entry box with a "Next" button, probably because it recognizes the presence of other EditTexts My application does not need this functionality, and in fact impairs the functionality of the application. How do I remove or disable that functionality?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want an EditText to look like TextView but still behave like EditText. I've tried applying TextView style to my EditText in my layout.xml file, like this:
CODE:............
But I get an error within xml editor: "Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'style' with value '@android:style/ Widget_TextView')." It is strange because @android:style/ Widget_TextView definitively exists - I double checked it in code via android.R.style.Widget_TextView. Another strange thing is that I don't get android:style offered in the xml editor while typing? There is android:id, android:text and everything else.. but not android:style?
I consider the hard way (making EditText look like TextView) to be: extending EditText and overriding it's onDraw method.
Is it possible to add any more emoticons/smiley faces to the text app? Stock or otherwise? And if so, where do you find them at?
