General :: Android Device Landscape Mode Lacking

Jun 16, 2012

Since i have an android device and tried some roms for this device (HTC One S)and its dissapointing to see that landscape mode is so lacking in the space that could have been used in messaging apps.

Its quite annoying (for me atleast) to have to withdraw my keyboard whilst typing something because the one i am texting with has sent something new.

I understand that this is not a place for requests, so my question is, is there any way to make messaging look like this (this image is not real)

and not like this..

I am not looking for a specific rom that allows this, im just looking for anything that makes this possible on any rom.

General :: Video Recording Tin Portrait Mode Records In Rotated Landscape Mode?

Mar 26, 2012

there are those of us, who due to whatever reason (helmet cams, preference for posture, etc) want to record videos in portrait mode.

What happens (on my sgs2) is that the video records just fine in whatever resolution I pick... but it records it 90 degrees rotated to the right.

The solution that is usually offered is that "you can rotate it after!" yes... but then you have to CROP part of the image and lower the resolution. 1920 x 1080 recordings end up having to be cropped so that half of the view is cut out , or even more if you are maintaining a real aspect ratio.

The questions about "why not just hold it sideways", are just as pointless as the statement by steve jobs telling iphone4 users that they were holding their phones wrong.

is this something that can be remedied ? or has google decided that people should only record videos when their phones are in landscape mode?

i understand that we cant see landscape resolution in portrait mode; but can't we just have a viewport into the camera, but record in properly oriented landscape mode? so that playback on a computer will show the full resolution, even though we will only see part of it on the phone..

Android :: Touch Sensitivity With HTC Dream 1 Device Lacking

Apr 16, 2009

I am the developer of WordUp! This game makes heavy use of the View touch apis to detect press and drag gestures across the letter cubes. Once in a while, I'll get a complaint (unfortunately coupled with a lower star rating) related to not being able to press and drag very easily. For example: "Would be fantastic if touch sensitivity wasn't so off-I had to practically dig my finger into the screen and drag it to connect letters." As a developer, this is really frustrating as I think this is an issue with the HTC Dream 1 hardware and possibly the Android 1.1 OS. I don't think it's fair that I would get dinged for a problem which rightly falls into the court of HTC/Google. In my experience with my own dev phone, I have found that a certain amount of natural oil on your fingertip makes a big difference in how easy it is to press and drag. I know that the touch screen is based on electrical current and, as such, it makes sense that the more oil on your finger, the better "connection" your finger will make with the screen. Perhaps the aforementioned user windexes the screen on a regular basis or compulsively hand-washes? In any case, I am requesting some reasonable explanation for this as I know it's not an isolated incident.

Android :: Portrait / Landscape Mode Supporting

Mar 31, 2009

When we try to implement orientation in AP layer, we can set "android:screenOrientation" parameter in AndroidManifest.xml file or call "setRequestOrientation()" method of Activity class. But if I want to porting android in new HW device, how can I do? Do I need to modify the graphic driver, or just add configuration in program. (Actually I do some experiments but my AP cannot rotate) Besides, can every experts tell me when I set the "android:screenOrientation" parameter, which process will read this configuration, pass to where and which process will do the rotation?

Android :: Softkeyboard Visible In Landscape Mode?

Jan 15, 2010

I wanted a way to find out whether a softkeyboard is visible at any given time.

If I set the windowSoftInputMode property to adjustResize, I receive resize events in the portrait mode (onSizeChanged gets called). I use these events to find out whether the softkeyboard is visible or not. But I get no resize events in the landscape mode (Android SDK 2.0). Do I need to set some property explicitly to get these events in the landscape mode.

Also when the application switches between landscape and portrait, the application gets resize events. So to find out whether the keyboard is actually visible, I would need to differentiate between the 2 resize events.

So in short, is there a cleaner way (other than resize events) to find out whether the soft keyboard is visible? And if resize is the only way, how can I turn it on for landscape mode?

Android :: App Crashes When Switching To Landscape Mode / Why Is So?

Jun 17, 2009

My application crashes when I switch the Android Emulator to landscape mode. But when I start the application, everything works fine, until I switch to portrait mode again.

The error only occurs when I switch from one mode to another. When I debug my app while switching to the other mode everything works fine until my program counter jumps out of the onCreate() function.

this is an error message i picked out: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo {com.prog.drink/com.prog.drink.App}: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State

Any idea what I could have done wrong in my app?

Android : Switching To Landscape Mode In Emulator

Apr 11, 2010

This is probably a pretty easy to answer question, but I can't find the solution myself after a couple hours of searching the documentation and Google.I set the orientation of my Android app to landscape in the AndroidManifest.xml file: android:screenOrientation="landscape"

However, when I run the app in the simulator, it appears sideways and in portrait mode. How can I switch the emulator to landscape mode on a mac? It's running the 1.6 SDK.

Android :: How To Get TableLayout To Fill Parent In Landscape Mode

Dec 27, 2009

I am using a TableLayout in my application. It contains four TableRows each containing four ImageViews. The behavior I want is to scale the layout to fit the shortest dimension. It works fine in portrait mode but fails miserably in landscape mode.

From the documentation it looks like this is because the TableRow layout_height is always set to WRAP_CONTENT. While I can set the dimensions of the individual Views, the TableLayout won't render at all if I set the View layout_height to FILL_PARENT.

I feel like there is something simple I am missing. Is there a way to get the TableLayout with TableRows to scale to fit the height in landscape mode?

Android : Trying To Make Nice Layouts For Landscape Mode?

Nov 10, 2010

My app has a tabhost with four tabs, and now I'm trying to make nice layouts for landscape mode. In order to make use of additional horizontal space I want to put TabWidget at the right side of the screen, and of cource all tabs must be one under another (like in a column).
But when switching to landscape mode all tabs get aligned in a row, it looks quite ugly. How to fix that?
Screenshot is here: http://imgur.com/gPS1R.png

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<LinearLayout

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">

<FrameLayout
android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1">

<include layout="@layout/filter_wizard"/>
<include layout="@layout/filter_wizard"/>
<include layout="@layout/filter_wizard"/>
<include layout="@layout/filter_wizard"/>

</FrameLayout>

Android :: Frame Rate Drops In Landscape Mode

May 24, 2010

I am trying out the (latest) Android SDK, and noticed some strange behavior.I've written a skeletal SurfaceView app: Activity, SurfaceView and a rendering thread. It doesn't actually do any painting, and only writes out the framerate to logcat once a second. When it runs in portrait mode, I get around 60 fps. However, when I flip it to landscape the framerate drops to about 30 fps.

I have also tested it on the LunarLender sample, and got similiar results. All of the testing are done on the emulator, since I don't have a physical device.What's it all about? I can't seem to find any mentioning to this on Google, have anyone else experienced that? Is it just an emulator quirk or does it apply to physical hardware too?
