I want to build a widget to show the most contacted person.The widget will be displaying only one contact at a time, with some details. But, I also want to keep a button on the widget, so that when the button is clicked (eg, Next), the next most contacted contact details should be shown.

When I had 2.1 on my EVO I would occasionally get single picture MMS that I would receive as a "slide show," however, when I would try to view the picture, it would open up in the slide show mode or about HALF A SECOND then close. VERY ANNOYING. Well, before I could try to fix the annoyance, I dropped my phone, sent it in for repair an 20 days later, got my EVO back. The slide show half-second-opening was FIXED matter of fact I was NOT receiving anything as a slide show at all. THEN, one day, my father (also on Sprint, using a Samsung Rant) sends me a SINGLE picture and it appears as a slide show!! Well, the slide show worked which is well, ok but the slide show option I find QUITE annoying.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find out what calendar to use on my home screen. I have the standard calendar widget enabled right now, but it's useless. It tells me I have something scheduled on each day, but that's it. The actual calendar app on my Incredible gives me kind of a bubble indicator for each day that is filled at different spots, depending on whether I have something set up for earlier in the day, middle of the day, etc. I want a full page widget that will do this, just having a marker that says that I have something on that day does me no good. I've also checked out some of the apps so far like Pure Calendar and while they are neat, they tend to tell me only a few days. I want the whole month laid out for me, so I can tell at a glance how busy any particular day will be. BTW, for anyone also wanting a widget with a layout on a day-to-day setup, check out Android Agenda, I use that for a text-based to-do list and it rocks, I just want a graphical one as well. I have stuff going on every day, but some are only 1 or 2 events, so the graphic layout is nice.
View 10 Replies View RelatedWhen sending a text message, I click on "new message," then type in the person's name.
When I do, it will show the person's name and phone number more than 20+ times! It's actually doing this for every contact I have, but only when I'm searching for a name when I'm trying to send a text message.
It doesn't affect my sending or receiving of messages, but it's a little annoying.
Just noticed that when I click on the "People" icon from home screen that some of my contact names are listed more than a dozen times!
So the one and only thing that I have to complain about with this phone is the serious lag when you tap a favorite person on the contacts widget. Its like a 3 second lag everytime. Any good apps on the market that would replace this widget? I love this phone!
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have seen the new HTC Droid Eris commercial a few times and it seems to fudge the truth when using the HTC people widget. You can clearly see in the commercial someone clicking on a person from the HTC people widget. However, after they click the person it brings up the person's information, as opposed to performing the default action specified for the contact. From my tinkering with this widget, it seems that you cannot actually perform the action they show in the commercial.

I followed the tutorial off code.google.com to add widgets to your app. For some reason, when I run the app on the phone for testing, then long click the home screen to add widgets, my widget is not an option. I imagine I am doing something wrong, but I thought I followed the tutorial pretty well. Here is some of my code, please offer a suggestion of why I can't add my widget. BTW i don't care that it doesn't do anything yet, or even if it breaks, I just want to see it as an option first (small steps). Thanks for any help or feedback.

Is there a simple 1x1 or 1x2 widget that shows free memory? Not storage memory, but running memory. Like after you run an Auto Killer (like Apollo, or ATK) it shows you how much RAM you now have free. I'd like a widget to display this information on the home screen? All I can seem to find is program storage memory, or SD memory storage, not RAM.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just got a HTC Hero (my 1st android device) and am trying to set everything up. I'm having a little trouble with the weather widget. It found my location just fine and is giving the weather correctly. The problem that I run into is when I am searching for other cities to add.
For example: I used to have an iphone and I would just type in the zip code or city, state. It would find any city or zipcode that I enter. With the hero it doesn't find anything except for major cities. Is there any way to get smaller cities to show up. I trying to get some city in Maryland and PA but it won't find anything and there are no big cities near it.
Is there any good alternative for the Astrid tasks app? I just need a widget on my homescreen like Astrid to show tasks. The problem with Astrid is that it has a backup process which keeps running in the background even when I disable backups. (See for yourself, in running processes).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the Android 2.2 source code and try to build it. When I executed the make command, I got an error here like this build/core/java.mk:20: *** frameworks/ex/common: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. Then I changed the frameworks/ex/common/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7. Next place, build/core/java.mk:20: *** external/jsr305: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. I changed the external/jsr305/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7
Last one, build/core/java.mk:20: *** external/guava: Invalid LOCAL_SDK_VERSION '8' Choices are: current 4 5 6 7. Stop. I changed the external/guava/Android.mk to LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 8 from LOCAL_SDK_VERSION = 7
By these changes the code started the compilation.
1. Why the error occured?
2. Changes which I did is correct or not?
Out of about 900 contacts, only 30 are personal with photos. Is there an app or widget that would allow me to see contacts without a photo placeholder? One of the widgets I love is the favorites people widget, but I can't stand that it has photo placeholders. Of my 800+ business contacts, none have photos so I'm staring at a page of grey faceless dudes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a widget that contains 4 buttons to show 4 stock prices, each of them will launch into the same activity Quote.class to show stock details. In onUpdate(), it will set up the pendingIntent with extras with stock symbol. After I hit button A, it goes to Quote activity that shows stock A. Then I hit the BACK button to the homescreen, Quote activity calls onDestroy() and when I hit button B, stock B will show properly. However, when i hit HOME button after it shows stock A, the Quote activity only calls onStop without calling onDestroy(), then as i hit button B, it will call onStart() and it shows the same instance that shows stock A.
CODE:............
Originally I thought adding a flag in the Intent should solve this problem. But I have tried
i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK or FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK or FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY), none of them makes any difference.
So is there any ways to make it work? How can i remove the history stack from HOME button? How can I call onCreate in Quote activity and get new extras when i hit button B?
I had deleted the flip clock b/c the weather refused to update. I went back and put it back on and the weather does not show up on the widget now. I have to open up a seperate weather widget on the screen. I've played around with the settings and haven't found a way to remerge the two. I called HTC directly and the rep I spoke with was dumbfounded. Had no idea what was wrong and told me that the only way I could fix this is to do a full system restore. I would prefer not to do that so if anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appriciate it. so it seems that the problem lies when I select "use current city" for the city I want. I choose one of the many cities listed that I don't live in, it works fine. How do I get it to recognize the city I live in?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAnyone know how to show the fancy widget on the lockscreen?
View 1 Replies View RelatedStrange thing has happened since the upgrade. I added the people widget to a screen in the large (9x9) style. The group I choose all have photos for each contact. If I view them in the people group listing, all the photos show next to the name. If I view the individual contacts the photos are there.
But only half the photos show in the widget view - anyone know what's going on? I can't work out what the difference could be between the contacts, there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.
