I've been following this phone and can't wait to get it. But, this feature is OUT OF THIS WORLD! They have a function called Layers and in this example the phone uses real time data and the phone's camera to show REAL TIME data on your screen through the camera using GPS!

Is there any TCK (Technology Compatibility Kit) on Android such like Sun TCK? How can I assure my android platform after changing it as own style. Can some one help me clarify this point?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat are the different ways to implement push technology into your Android app? The client Android app is supposed to receive content (XML Data) pushed by the server. I've looked around and found out it was possible to achieve it with usage off the SOAP protocol. But are there some better ways top implement push? The main concern in this project is the phones battery life, all off it has to happpen over WiFi, pushed content has to be viewable on the device immediately.
View 12 Replies View RelatedWho will take the battery life into consideration when buying a phone? In my opinion, most people who look out for phones do not consider battery life, most would consider stuff like technology, physical looks etc., but not battery life. Even if there are people who consider battery life, those are just the minority. Hence there are lots of controversy regarding the battery life. Most might agree that the battery is just right, however it is no surprise if people complain about battery life running out too quickly. Is technology improving but not batteries? It seems like phones are getting better everyday, but the battery life has like been stagnant.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHas anyone been able to compare the Galaxy S and the Evo firsthand? I canceled my Evo order to see what the S Pro will be like. On paper I feel that except for the Evo's slightly bigger screen the Galaxy S has better features including better screen technology, but as we've heard with some peoples' Evos there can be hidden issues. Any thoughts? I guess it's not really possible to do a side by side comparison yet unless someone has one of the handsets and travels to a country where they're selling the other one, or has had a chance to use a prototype.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering whether there was a way, if you have a webview with some html being displayed in it, to obtain which part of the html is touched by the user. For example, say I have a webview that's displaying, in just plain text (no links), the following:
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
If the user touches the word "lazy", can I somehow obtain information that he has touched that particular word? Perhaps there is something in the WebView or WebViewClient classes that maps sections in the html data to x, y coordinates?
I am planning to release a trial version of my app and am looking into best ways to implement the logic. My lite version of the app would have all the features but will be time restricted. I see a couple of issues:
- Currently there is no mechanism built into android that allows an app to be closed. I see that you can close the main acitivity, but the user can always press the back button and go back into the app.
- After trial period, the user can always un-install the app and re- install it. What do I do to prevent this from happening?
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

I have an image that I want to be able to display full size but when I place it in my imageview it scales. I would like it to display full size with scroll bars. Is there a way I can make my main view that the image view is in have scroll bars vertical and horizontal or how can I do this. The images are local on the SD card. I would really like to get the same effect that the webview offers if i were to look at these image from a URL.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm getting used to it very quickly one app i haven't found yet is an ebook reader that allows the reader to lookup words in a dictionary. I used to have Mobireader on my Windows Mobile which allowed me to do that and it was great, but alas it looks like it hasn't been ported to Android. I tried Aldiko because it has a similar function but you have to manually type each word which is kind of a drag. Anyone can recommend an ebook reader for my needs?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo, basically I have a custom View that contains a ListView with a custom Adapter that has the ability to read in information from the network (dumbed down HTML) and display it on a row by row basis. All of this works, but I need the text that is read in to be parsed as HTML which contains links that can be tapped on and launched in browser. I managed to do this by:
text.setText(Html.fromHtml(textBuffer), TextView.BufferType.SPANNABLE);
text.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
Works great, any <a href=""></a> links in the text are displayed as links and can be tapped. This is a side effect of now making it so the rest of the rows in the ListView cannot be tapped (or tapped and held). Basically, all the rows are non-selectable now. Is there any way to achieve both of what I need?
I just switched from palm to the hero. Palm had the ability to make certain contacts and memos private. Is there a way to do that? Also with photos or other apps to lock them?That was a great feature of palm.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a Palm refugee who is looking for some sort of memo app for storing dozens of snippets of miscellaneous information. My research so far suggests that my (seemingly modest) list of essential requirements isn't ticked by any existing application, I guess I'm just posting to get confirmation of this, or to see whether I'm missing something! Two requirements:
- ability to sync with something, so that most of the maintenance of the memos could be done on a keyboard and proper screen. Ideally I'd rather this was a desktop application on my own PC for privacy, but it seems like an attachment to privacy marks me out as some sort of relic of a bygone era, so I'm prepared to compromise on cloud synchronization.
- ability to export memos in a form which is reasonably transportable, eg a CSV file. Again, call me hopelessly old-fashioned, but I would no more put all my data into an application which has no exit route than I'd put all my money into a bank which doesn't like customers to make withdrawals.As I say this doesn't seem unduly demanding, but I think current technology is some way behind my brief shopping list. I suppose I'd quite like the ability to import Palm memos (from a CSV file), but I've given up on making such demands and I'd be prepared to spend the evening cutting and pasting by hand for the right app!In short, as far as I can see, Evernote ties you into some bizarre database of their own with no way out, Note Everything has no sync or export facility, and nor does 3banana. So it looks like I'll be carrying my Palm around unless someone can tell me differently!
Does anyone know if the above is likely to be released for Android? I saw it today on a friends iPhone, and its certainly entertaining - provides you with the ability to take a photo of a persons face, then make them fat based on their facial features
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm planning to buy a new phone next week (last one got stolen), and I'm kinda thinking about an android one. I've got three requirements: -An easily manageble "to do"-list om the home screen (e.g stickynotes) -A good calendar (which may or may not be able to sync with google calendar, no biggie!) -Ability to sync my adress book with an online server (google sync?) every month or so...(That was two years' worth of contacts, damnit Anyway, my question is this: Would an android phone really be the best choice for me? I'm kinda on a tigt budget, and I've heard horror stories of Android phones/Iphones having to connect to the net every day or so... But the only thing I really need the internet for is for syncing (the adress book once a month, the calendar every week or so), checking my mail now and then and for downloading the occasional app (e.g. stickynotes).
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to get an Android based phone and I thought I had decided on one, but since then I keep seeing other options and I'm not sure what to go with any more. It would be nice if anyone could point me to the best option for me. The only things I'm looking for in an android phone specifically is the ability to call, text (very little chance this won't be included :P) and GPS. I do not want a high-end one, and I certainly don't want one which has an enormous screen/form like the Desire, Galaxy S or likewise. I'm looking to spend no more than �250, but would prefer the option to be sub-�200 and possible to buy in the UK. I'm not looking for a contract or branded, and want to buy it outright, so importing can be an option assuming it's not troublesome. It's important that the tech be powerful enough that the UI isn't sluggish and is fairly responsive. A nice plus would be to have WiFi capability, with it being possible to tether. The phone I was originally looking at was the HTC Wildfire, and the only downside I could find about the phone was the screen resolution. Then I seen an announcement for the new LG Optimus One and became unsure and thought there may be another better option around.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have tested my app in a debugger for many different sizes, and realized I will probably need a scrollView to allow the user to view the full layout.
The issue, is I use a flipper in my main.xml with multiple linear layouts like so:

I made the ImageViews, Buttons, TextViews, etc comments so not to bloat the code -
This is in my main xml file, where all the layouts are displayed. How can I go about easily adding a scroll view to each layout, so if it is too big for the screen of a certain phone, the user can scroll through the page to see all the content?

View 14 Replies View RelatedCurrently on my Desire I'm using LeeDroid 2.2d, which is very nice. Partitioned my SD card for a2sd+ so I've got over 100mb free of internal memory, and can install as many apps as I want, which is great. The caveat - I can't send people pictures, and their pictures won't come through either, though I don't have this issue with people who have iPhones. Other people with Desires cannot MMS me and I cannot MMS them back, nor can my wife with her Samsung Slyde (we're with Telus in Canada). Basically on either end we get a message that says "Generic network failure" whenever an MMS attempts to download. It repeats this message over and over for a few hours, which is extremely annoying, especially when I'm the recipient.
I assume, as it did with my stock Telus 2.1 before I rooted, that MMS will work fine if I use the very-recently-released Froyo from Telus. I know that to some degree I will be able to move apps to SD with this, but not to the extent that a2sd+ does, where using a 512mb partition on your SD card to imitate phone memory, it saves an enormous amount of precious internal space.
What would you do? Is there a way to get a2sd+ for this new Telus? Or even better, is there a way to make MMS work properly under LeeDroid?
I'm finally going to make the jump over to android from winmo this week after years of loyalty but the one thing that could sway my decision is the ability to do t9 texting. yeah i know there are all these new fangled ways to text like swype but imo nothing beats the simplicity of a 9 button predictive layout I played with my brother's incredible which had it but i'm unsure if that was an HTC thing or not. So are all android keyboards the same with the same option and if not does anyone know if the X will have t9 text?
