I have an application which is designed for a fixed screen size.But when i install the application on a device with different screen size ,i am not able to view the complete application.Is it possible to allow layout adjustments based on variable screen sizes? like setting width with some % of screen size which is decided when application installation is done.For eg: 60% of screen size or 60% of relative layout

When my screen is locked, I can't adjust the media volume.Is there a way to change that?
View 7 Replies View RelatedUntil now I had my screen set to auto brightness.First, +1 to those who said in other threads that the screen looks even better when you turn that off and put brightness all the way up.But my question here is why, on auto brightness, the screen sometimes increased or decreased brightness when I was using it. It happened all the time. The only thing I can rule out as the cause was time delay, because sometimes it happened as I was typing or just after, and sometimes it would happen after a delay. I think it must be connected to either orientation, or movement, or brightness sensor detecting the ambient light, or something.If I could figure out how to make it stop doing that I would go back to auto-brightness.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using the new US version of HTC Hero (I believe it's running 1.5) and I noticed the following pretty annoying problem that I cannot seem to tweak.
If a new calendar event or alarm come in, the screen briefly lights up to show what the message is, and then turns off after a short while. That way, I don't have to turn it on, pull down the protective screen, then the notification bar, etc.
However, with email, SMS, gtalk, and the like, the screen doesn't light up. There are settings for having a sound or vibrate, neither of which light up the screen. When I press the Menu or power button, the new notification sits happily in both the lower part of the screen and the notification area.
One thing I find annoying is that when I get a new SMS text message or MMS I have to hit the red button, then swipe the monitor to unlock the phone to read the message, unlike when an incoming phone call comes in, I can just swipe the monitor and it will answer the call. Is there an app out there to make it so that all incoming txt messages will automatically unlock the screen so that I can just reply without having to go through all of the steps simply get to the txt message itself?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSometimes the screen auto-rotates when I don't want it to if I angle the phone slightly. I am constantly toggling it on and off. To do so of course, I have to go into settings, then display. Does anyone know of an app that I can add the toggle switch as a shortcut on my desktop? It is kind of a pain to go through the settings each and every time. I would much rather just hit it easily on my homescreen.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have ever saw the similar discussion in this group, but nobody answer. And I am very confusing about this feature. Because most of developers do not seem to meet this problem.
The problem is when I press ENDCALL button, it does not going into Screen Lock view. And I have download the source code of "cupcake" & "android-1.5" & "android-1.5r2" & "android-sdk-1.5_r1" version from Android's GitWeb. The feature of lock screen does not work on the emulator. But it works on the offical SDK version. I don't know what is happened.
Due to a audio issue VZ had me reset my X, a pain for sure. The phone worked but I couldn't figure out how to turn-off the irritated screen lock as it was before the reset. I think I've found the answer on the Moto website it says "

The just decided to remove a feature like that? Does anyone know of a way to turn of the screen lock?
I noticed that when i type a text msg that the screen seems to dim slightly and then come back. Is this a result of the auto brightness feature?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who has noticed this, it might not be a big issue (like the MT, 65k display instead of 16M, android 1.6, etc.) but this small details make an average phone into a great phone. My questions are:
1) Rotating from landscape to portrait mode works fine (but sluggish) as long as you rotate the phone to your left, but it doesn't work if you rotate it to the right or upside down, is this hardware or software related?
2) In the same topic why is it so sluggish to rotate from Landscape to Portrait? (again is it SW or HW related)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a menu that slides up from the bottom.It starts with the menu's view just visible at the bottom of the screen, and then clicking it causes it to slide up.I tried using a TranslateAnimation, but although the pixels move, the hit areas of the menu are in the same position as before.So I think that if I can adjust the menu's margins after the animation is complete, this will accomplish what I want.However, I can't figure out how to adjust the margins.I've tried to create a LinearLayout.LayoutMargins object and then set its margins and apply it to the menu's view (which is a LinearLayout), but this doesn't work.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI currently have a ListView being filled by a custom Adapter with content it gets from a JSON string on a web page. The ListView's row layout is a LinearLayout that has two things in it, one AdMob layout and one TextView. The AdMob layout's visibility is by default set to Gone.What I want to do make every 5th row's AdMob layout visible. The current way I am doing this is by Overriding getView in my custom adapter (something I already had programmer to get my rows to have alternating colours), within this I keep track of the position variable and see if I have moved down 5 rows yet. When I have I find the AdView object and set it to visible. This works fine for a while but for some reason as I scroll down more on my list the ads become every other instead of every five. This doesn't make any sense to me because I have set up logcat to tell me when it reaches my "make ad visible code" and according to that I should not be having double ads. Has this happened to anyone else before? I'm not quite sure how to handle this situation.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI know you can apply Permissions for Applications on it's manifest.xml file. What I want to know is, can those Permissions be adjusted by the Applications on the fly?Here's my reason: say I have an application that is allowed to do "x", "y", and "z" (SMS, sockets, etc) Permissions. Now lets say I have a logical "user" that connects to this Application, and I want that user to only be able to do "x" and "y", but not "z" Permissions. It would be nice to have the Android Framework handle that instead of having a bunch of "if's" in the App code.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAn app or mod that will use the microphone to sense the amount of noise around you and adjust the notifications accordingly - that is to say when its quiet, next to my bed and I am sleeping I want it to be all quiet sounds - but when I am working and there is fan noises and other stuff that is louder then normal I want the notifications to be loud - but if I walk into the break room which is quiet I want it to be quiet again - or if I am listening to music in a room or car turn up the notifications so I can here them and back down when not. You know take a sound reading and turn up or down the volume of the notification that is happening at that given time.
Only problem being when its in your pocket it will always seem to be quieter then normal so they will be quiet also, so there would need to be something to listen to the sound and determine if its being muffled by a pocket or whatever and turn it up then - if playing a sound and analysing that sound it should be able to determine what environment the phone is in, like a pocket or bag that will make it quieter. I am not even sure if i am describing this properly but I know someone can probably figure it out, but it might have to be something the manufacturer does, like that phone that has 2 microphones to auto cancel out background noises like a bluetooth headset.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm using the FontFitTextView that was posted in this other thread, but it isn't working exactly right for me. The measureText() call is returning a number that is obviously too small to display the string. When it runs through to find a font size that will allow the text to fit, the font size it settles on is still too big. I feel like there is some other kind of padding or margin or some other invisible that is contributing the math that makes up the width which is causing the discrepancy.For example I want to set the text of my FontFitTextView to be "10,000.25".The width of my FontFitTextView is 96 pixels, with 8px padding on both sides, so my available width is 80 pixels. The call to measureText() says that the text "10,000.25" is 64 pixels wide. This means that the current font size should be small enough to display the entire string. However, when the string is actually drawn on the TextView the last 2 characters are chopped off and all I see is "10,000." instead of "10,000.25"
