I set setCursorVisible(false) on my EditText to get rid of the blinking cursor. Unfortunately, this also gets rid of highlighting. Why? How can I get rid of the cursor and not the highlighting?

I have the android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" set on my ListView, which fixed this issue in one of my other lists in another activity, but it's not helping in this other list. I'm using the Light theme in my app, if that matters. I can't figure out what's going on. Long press brings up the context menu just fine, I just don't get the nice highlight of the row while pressing it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a ListView set up in single-choice mode like this:
<ListView android:id="@id/android:list"android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="#ff444444" android:layout_weight="1"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="false" android:choiceMode="singleChoice" android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:headerDividersEnabled="true"/>
When I press my finger on a choice, the selection changes from white text on light gray to black text on orange. But as soon as I lift my finger, the selection reverts to the original state. I'd like that chosen row to remain in the black-text-on-orange mode when I lift my finger so that the user knows what was selected in the list (my onClickListener has captured the selected row, of course). Is there a way I can tell the ListView that I want this behavior or something similar so the user knows what item has been selected?
I'm trying to customize my buttons in my view a bit and give them my own look. Whenever I set a picture as a background so that the button looks different though, I seem to lose my cursor. I can use my trackball to go through the items still but when I come to one of my custom buttons the cursor does not show. I have the same problem with some TextViews that I made clickable.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to disable the highlighting of objects in a GridView in Android 2.2. I did find another article saying that I should set the selector to a transparent ColorDrawable, but the views in my GridView are still dimmed when I select them. I'm just using the GridView to display static objects (right now it's text, but I plan on switching it to simple images). None of these objects will be selected. Would it be better to just use a basic view and draw my images manually with quartz?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen viewing Web pages either in the built-in Web browser or in a WebView canvas, focusable items get the orange highlight ring as you navigate the page with the D-pad/trackball. A design team I am working with wishes to create some Web content, specifically for Android, where they handle their own focus highlighting via Javascript/CSS and wish to disable the built-in Android focus highlighting. In this case, the content is being viewed through a WebView, so I have some measure of control. I see some posts describing how to use ColorStateList, <selector>, and android:background to affect this sort of change, for a single View. How would one go about affecting this change for the contents of a WebView?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a ListView component and its items are highlighted orange when clicked or selected with the trackball, as you would expect as this is the default behavior. Some of my list items get colored with setBackgroundColor(). These colored items seem to hide the orange highlighting when clicked or selected. How can I color some of my items like this and still inherit this highlighting behavior?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen components like TextViews got focus we can focus them using highlighting the border of the component. Like that how can we highlight the border of a spinner object when it got focus? You can highlight borders of each and every item in the spinner at the time of selection. What I need is to highlight the border of spinner object when it got focus initially. I went through xml attributes and couldn't find matching one. Let me know if u have any clue to do this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Timer which executes a TimerTask every 30 seconds. I only want the timer to launch a new TimerTask if the Activity is displayed i.e. if the user receives a phone call or launches a new activity the Timer will stop. I then need the Timer to restart when the Activity is re-launched and comes into focus.
Now this should be easy, I override the "onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus)" method and either start or stop the timer depending on the value of has Focus. The way I start the timer is to create a new Timer object and TimerTask each time and the way I stop the Timer is to call the cancel() method on the Timer object and set timer to null.
My problem is this doesn't always work, if I launch the activity which has the Timer and switch orientations quickly (to start/stop the Activity) I find the Timer is not always canceled and I end up with multiple Timers launching TimerTasks at an ever increasing rate.
Like the title says, I need to detect when my app loses focus because another app is launched (Phone call comes in, or user hits Home etc.).
Overriding Activity.OnStop does not work because that is called even when switching activities within my app.
I wonder if anybody has ran into the issue where a running emulator would lose network connection all at a sudden for no obvious reason. And I am sure the computer running the JVM is still online.Restarting the emulator seems to fix the issue but it's been a major PITA for me as it interrupts the work flow.I am using 2.1 SDK 7.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWith a few thousand customers, only 2 have complained of this problem. They install the app, then put the phone in standby/sleep mode (i.e. turning it off, but not shutting it down). When they turn it back on, my app's icon is reverted to the generic green and white android icon and the title shows as the class name of the app instead of the title. And, of course, the app no longer works. I am at a loss as to what to do. It seems like an android bug to me. And I think both customers are using a Motorola Droid. Anybody else heard of this? I am not sure what to search for on Google.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen changing screen orientation while running an Activity that has both a normal layout and a layout-land file defined (both of which contain a TextView), then that view loses its focus after being restored and a warning is issued on the log:
"Previously focused view reported id X during save, but can't be found during restore."
Is this a bug? I looked at the mID field of that view, and it's identical for both the portrait and the landscape layout.
I've had several of my users email me to tell me they had to do a factory reset on their phone for some reason or other. The problem is, they had purchased apps installed and the Android market app loses track of this information when the phone is reset. My only solution to their problem is to go into my checkout account, refund their money and ask them to repurchase my app.
Am I correct in assuming that Google decided to only check the PackageManager on the device to determine if an app was purchased or not? Is there really no other means of determining that an app was purchased? Surely this information about the purchase is kept on a server somewhere (which is why I can see the purchase information with Google Checkout) Also, since the user of a phone must login with a Google account in order to use the market, can't you just correlate the user's purchased apps with their login account and bypass the phone altogether? I'm probably missing something, but I wanted to let you know its a source of frustration to have to deal with this when I consider this issue the responsibility of the market infrastructure.
I have a widget on my home screen with several ImageButtons which have default background images. Through the configuration activity, I can change the image on any of the ImageButtons. The problem is that when the screen is rotated, the image on the ImageButton disapears and it changes back to the default image.
I don't know why this happens or how to fix it
I bought my phone week ago and problems with GPS started immediately: I installed MOTONAV (iGO for Motorola) and tried to test it and it worked perfectly... for about 10 minutes and than message "GPS signal lost"... without come back. Reset of GPS or phone didn't solved the problem... I tried GPS signal later (after 15-30 minutes) with GPS Test app and there it was - working just like that: catches signal after 10 seconds!
After that I thought application was a problem: uninstalled it, downloaded Navigon - same thing: signal lost after 5-15 minutes of using navapp.
Hard reset of phone, navigon again - same issue.
Is there a Java library for colourings text in an EditText? Or is this just accomplished with Regex? I looked into Google Prettify but that seems to be for static text.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIt was earlier this evening in fact. I went with my friends to check out the iphone 4 for the first time. So i decided to try and see the reception problem for myself. I took out my nexus one and did a side by side comparison. However to my surprise the iphone 4 was already at 2 bars the moment i picked it up, no idea why as my nexus one (Which was on the SAME carrier btw) had more bars on it at the same time. I carried on with the test anyway. You guys can guess the result.
The bars didn't drop completely as the coverage in Singapore is much better. But that doesn't mean it had better reception than my nexus one.
But the interesting thing was the lady beside me noticed us and asked "what are you trying to prove?". So while her daughter plays with the ipad, I kindly explained to her the whole issue with the iphone 4's revolutionary antenna having a ******ed flaw by which it loses signal when you cover the bottom left corner of the phone, unlike my phone which did not suffer as much as a drop. She then proceeded to saying "But they fixed the problem if you use the bumpers right?". Thats when i explained that you should not rely on a silly bumper case to improve reception when the actual problem lies with the antenna's design itself. But again she said "but the problem is fixed with the case right?". With one of the store sales person watching us the entire time, i still carried on and said "no it doesn't solve the problem, it only prevents it from happening". So we continued playing with the phone and she asked "you all are not fans of apple are you?". Trying not to be so direct, i just said "I actually used to have an iphone, but i didn't like it so i got this instead *shows nexus one*".
Ive never done this kind of thing before, so it was kinda thrilling. Especially when you know the staff is looking at you pseudo-promoting a rival phone. After looking at the iphone 4, i really think it does look beautiful, but it will still be crippled by the limitations of the OS regardless of how you jailbreak it. When i left the store i kinda hoped i shed some light into that lady's decision on whether or not to buy an iphone 4 or any other phone (Android or non-android).
I'm wondering if anyone else has had their email accounts disappear? This has happened 3 times now. The first time was a few weeks ago after having the same accounts for months. The next time was a couple of weeks ago and then it happened again today. I checked my emails when I got to work, and then while I was sitting in a meeting, I picked up my phone to peek at emails and all 3 accounts were gone along with my corporate calendar account. I re-entered the accounts and it loads everything, but this is kind of annoying.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had a problem with no matter what android phone I have. This has been doing it for quite some time but I dealt with it but last night I lost 12 GB of music so here it is:
Whenever I move music in these situations, it will erase all ID3 Tag information (Artist, Album, etc) and all it has is the file name. I had 2000 songs with artist names and all, but when moved it all became unknown artist. Here are the situations:
Galaxy S3: Moving Music from one folder to another (Like from a Download folder to my music folder on external SD). Or from moving music from internal to external or vice versa.
Optimus G: Moving music from one folder to another on the internal storage (Again, like from a download to music folder).
Evo 4G: Just moving from folder to folder.
All this is done with ES. File explorer. I tried other but they do it too. It can not be device specific because it happens on almost any android. All songs are in MP4/MP3 format and maybe some .wma.
today i meet the problem.i need technic can control the android machine from server.then i want send data from server to android with no request from android.
