Creating ActionBar Menu?
Jul 5, 2012
I am working on mapactivity for googlemaps api. I created options menu which includes 5 different menu items. What I need is whenever I click on each of the menu item it should open another menu may be something similar to contextual action mode which should contain some views like button and a text editfield. I need to enter address in edit field and button to click on GO which should thereby locate the address on the map.
What I did is, in OnOptionsItemSelected() I am passing setcontentview with new ref.id(xyz.xml) which contains edittext and button. But I am not able to pass button.setonclicklistener() after that. The application gets crashed running this peace of code.
I think this is a wrong way of doing but I didn't find any other way to get the options with edit and button. I am working on java.

I'm creating a menu in XML using the eclipse software.Unfortunately, I'm no expert in XML but I have attempted to create a basic menu.
The issue I'm having is the alignment of the menu buttons. The buttons on the left column are smaller in width compared to the buttons in the right column. I know this may not seem much of an issue now, but the problem is made worse if I edit the text value of the buttons.
I want to achieve even distribution for both columns of buttons but I have been scratching my head trying to figure this one out!
find below an image describing my program and the code:
Code:
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TableRow android:background="#FFFFFF">
[code]....

I want to have an options menu that is available to all Activities in my app (on pressing the MENU button). I've been doing this by creating it in onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) for each Activity but this seems redundant. Is there a way to create it in one place and have it available in all Activities?

I have a ListView which is populated with items and I would like to be able to create the context menu based on some information fetched from the Cursor used to create the row. Is there a preferred approach for storing a boolean or flag associate with the row? Eg. should it be in the View? I could make the decision when creating the menu too, but I need to get a unique id from the row in the ListView public void onCreate ContextMenu (ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {ListView listView = (ListView) v; Also listView.getSelectedItem() seems to return null, listView.getSelectedItemId() gives a very negative number and listView.getSelectedView() is null too. I thought that the mSelectedItem in the listView would be populated when creating the context menu. Or it could be some typo somewhere

I have an Options menu up and running in my Android application and I've overridden the onCreateOptionsMenu, onOptionsItemSelected and onPrepareOptionsMenu methods to customize the menu a little. My question is related to keeping the Options menu open after the user clicks on a menu item. Basically, I'd like to be able to hide the menu until the user clicks on the device menu key. Once the user clicks on this key, I'd like to be able to hold the menu in place regardless of how many times the user clicks on menu items. If the user wants to hide the Options menu, they'd just need to click on the device menu key again. Is this type of interaction supported (or even advisable).

How can i define each menu item in different line? Right now if I'm adding 4 items they will get the form of 2X2. Is there a way to add them differently? Like 1 item and 3 below it? or 1X4?

How can I launch a contextmenu from a contextmenu? I'm trying to replicate the MediaPlayer action that happens when you long click a song, then click "Add to playlist" in the resulting contextmenu. When you click that menu item, another contextmenu pops up with "Add to playlist" as the title, and "Current playlist", "New", and however-many-playlists-you-have defined after that.

Is there a way that I can use my own database when creating an app?
What I mean by that is that I want the app to start with a database already loaded so one doesn't have to be created when the app is started?

I can't create a new APN in my phone. I own a samsung galaxay star GT-S5282.
I tried using giffgaff, but when i save the APN that giffgaff made, it isn't there. And I tried doing it manually too. It's not there when i press save.
I tried using APN backup and restore, and when i open the app, it says "Unfortunately APNs cannot be restored or deleted on this device because android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party apps to write APN settings."
I already checked the unknown sources in settings>security>unknown sources.
I don't know what to do to create new APN.

I'm not sure if this needs to be in the Support/TroubleShooting section or in the All Things Root Section. Mods, feel free to move. Anyone know where I can get some detailed instructions for creating a SD Ext 4 partition? Is this something easy to do in Windows? I'm running Ubuntu mainly so if there are ways to do it in there that would be good too.

I'm sure this is simple, but I've got myself confused over it.I have an image resource, such as R.drawable.myimage, and I want to convert this into a URI.I tried:
Uri selectedImage = Uri.parse("android.resource://com.my.package/" + resourceId);
but this just returns a NullPointer. The resourceId needs to be dynamic (so I can pass any image to it), not just a hardcoded "myImage".Any help please?

Let's say I randomly generate a number 0 to 100. Where 0 is really cold and 100 is red hot. Wen the number hits, it would show an image bar (kind of like a % finished bar) that shows in the image what # you hit.
So it would kind of be like a progress bar from 0 to 100, and whatever # they hit it shows in the image of the bar in an imageview?

I'm starting a calendar app and I'm trying to figure out what the best way to create the layout is. I don't want to use the built in CalendarView as it's only in API >11 which limits the potential users too much.
I've toyed around with a GridView with and Adapter behind it. Truth be told I'm still figuring out how that one works, but it seems the most promising.I tried a nested LinearLayout of TextViews but that requires accessing each TextView be it's ID.
