General :: Do Some Phones Ignore Key Layout Files
Jan 14, 2013
I have a newly rooted Casio G'zone Commando, build M100, running 2.3.3.I wanted to prevent the volume button from waking up the phone. (turning the screen on)
I did some research and found that the .kl or key layout files in /system/usr/keylayout control this behavior. As an experiment I focused on disabling the WAKE property on just the VOLUME_UP key in every file where it appeared in that directory. I removed the .BAK files, rebooted, but VOLUME_UP still wakes the phone.
Owners of other phones report successes changing all sorts of buttons this way. Is the Commando overriding this somewhere else?

While developing for Android, I am unable to open more than one main.xml file in an Eclipse editor at a time.Each time I open one, it simply replaces the editor (tab) of the first main.xml with the new one, instead of opening a new tab - even if the contents of the existing tab were unsaved.Even stranger, I can open multiple main.xml files from different projects with no problems.This only happens when they're within the same project.

Today android phones are coming with an internal storage which is called the internal sdcard. Because of this the need for external sdcards is vanishing day by day. But when your phone is factory reset you lost all the data stored in it while in case of external sdcard you have an option to save your data. If you accidently lost all the data stored in your phone then don't worry I have a solution to get it back. This trick will work on phones having mass storage mode support, if you are running android 4.1 jellybean and above then root your phone to get mass storage( the tutorial is different for different phones),
If you have accidently lost all your files, photos and videos from your phone then after this do not copy new files to the phone. This also include clicking photos and capturing videos. If you copy new files to the phone then you are actually reducing your chances to get back your deleted photos and videos and other files. In short just don't download anything to your phone, do not use the internet on your phone till the time when you get back your lost files back.
This trick will only work on android phones having mass storage mode and MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) options. If your device is rooted then you can enable mass storage mode on your android phone. After enabling mass storage mode you can get back deleted photos, videos and all files from the internal storage of any android phone.
Requirements
1. Recuva for Windows 7, Windows 8
2. A USB data cable.
Now Follow The Steps Below
-Download and install recuva. While installation do not uncheck any option.
-Now connect your android phone in mass storage mode. Connect it to pc a notification will appear in the phone, tap it to enable mass storage.
-Now open My computer and you will see Removable disk.
-Open recuva and click Next, on the next step All Files will auto selected. Again click Next. Then choose In a specified location and click Browse.Choose the removable disk or MTP disk here and click Next.
-In next step put a check mark in Enable Deep Scan and click Start.
-After scan is finished you will see the list of all deleted files. Green circles is means that file can be recovered while red circle means unrecoverable file.
-Now check the box next to Filename to select all files. Click Recover on the bottom right and choose Desktop .Your deleted files will be recovered.

I am using eclipse 3.5 with the ADT plugin.when I view layout xml files, i get two tabs in the view the source code view and a graphical view.the graphical view almost never works for any of my layouts.it usually shows "NullPointerException: null" at the top and nothing else. when it does work, it often does not match what i get in the simulator or device.it seems like this thing simply is not ready for prime time; although the idea is very cool.has anyone else had much success with it?

I use a few small images on my app and I was wondering if (and how) I could ensure that the size of the image is relative to the size of the phone? Also, is there a way to shrink my layout on smaller phones so each layout fits within the screen - like if a random string (longer than others) would downsize in font so the whole layout was ensured to fit on the screen?

I got my Samsung GT-I9003 4GB a month ago, and everything was working perfectly until 3 days ago. It starts showing an "Internal SD card unexpectedly removed" error whenever the phone goes standby, then it forces me to terminate processes one after another, and finally it shuts down. I hadn't done any kind of ROM flashing nor rooting the device until the problems arose, so I don't know where the problem comes from.
I've tried to re-flash froyo 2.2.1 in my device, but the problem keeps showing up.
I found in this forums this thread [URL] .... covering the possibility of swapping both internal memory and external SD. It works great, but I still had problems with the "external SD card" being "unexpectedly removed"...
It crossed my mind if it was possible to modify the vold.fstab file further to only detect the external SD card as the internal memory and ignore the internal memory, as if it wasn't even on the phone. I don't know if that's even possible (since I don't know much about file systems nor Android).

Just found this awesome app thanks to LifeHacker called Awesome Drop. Get it in the Market and read about it here! Awesome Drop Transfers Files to Your Android Phone via HTML5 Drag-and-Drop. I just tried it, and it works flawlessly. Anything you transfer goes right into a folder on your SD card called "drop". This is a must-have for anyone that needs to transfer files quickly!

I have a custom View that I'd like to specify the layout of in an XML file rather than through code, is there anyway I can take an Android XML layout file and use it to flush out my custom View's content? I know it can be done in an Activity via the setContentView method, but there doesn't seem to be a similar method for Views.

I have defined custom views in the various layout .xml files. However, all the layouts are using the Linear Layout - put the content would vary.
I would like to create my own widget tag something like <com.mypackage.MyLinearLayout />, I would like to pass the layout as a param to the <com.mypackage.MyLinearLayout layout="@layout/simple.xml" />
How to define new attributes to the custom widgets ? Simply defining a getter/setter method would work or is there any other references.

My Treo had this option, and so did the Hero that I had for a few weeks. When a call is coming in, there is an option on the screen to ignore the call and reply with a text message. I realize this can be done just by pressing the "hangup" button and then unlocking the phone, and then opening the SMS app, finding the person's contact info, and replying, but a one-button process would be really nifty.If there is not such an app, where's a good place to start learning how to write one?

before froyo I would be able to hit the top button during an incoming call, the phone would silent and the caller wouldn't know I am sending him/her to voicemail. Now this is no longer an option. I had to swipe up to decline, swipe down to answer. Anyone else notice this? Need to test what swipe up to decline actually does. I've also noticed that GMAIL app no longer refreshes for mail automagically and some apps rotate only one way, like market, most of the top does not work in portrait. Ex: Just now I start Market in Portrait, it opens in landscape and won't switch...Anyone else notice little things like this? Maybe there is some re-configuration/re-calibration that needs to be done after FROYO 2.2 OTA update? Wish Verizon would have given us a heads up

I would like to have my android app ignore flip, is that possible? I added android:screenOrientation="portrait" to all of my activities but that is about as effective as the close door button on an elevator.

I'm creating a spinner and I've added an OnItemSelectedListener to it. However I've noticed that it fires on create. Now I was wondering if there was a way to ignore/discard it. I know I could use a boolean value, but that's a bit "dirty".

Often there are wifi points that make the radio connection like an open network, but really require some entering of registration on a web paage before actually connecting to internet. Starbucks here in Japan is an example.
My s4 connects wifi signal to such points, but after it cannot complete the registration, it thinks "no internet", even though it has perfectly strong LTE connection. And refuses to connect via LTE. In such case, I have to turn off wifi and then it's fine.
This is annoying in my office because my group's wifi is different from the one for the building in general, so I have to turn the wifi off and on depending on where I am in the building.
Is there a way to tell the s4 to "ignore wifi that doesn't have internet connection and use Cell signal instead"?

I have a website that is using the viewport META tag to tell mobile browsers how to display content( ). Viewing the page in the Android browser looks correct (and iPhone, etc).
When I load the page into a WebView component in an android Application, the WebView ignores the "VIEWPORT" tag, and renders the page at "full" resolution, which is zoomed-in in this case.

I think this is something we need a post covering. So many people are using task managers, which is likely un-necessary for the most part, and quite a few folks don't know what they can and cannot safely kill. All of the task managers I have tried include an ignore list so I figured I'd post what I have ignored in TasKiller, along with what I know about each item, and hopefully others will do that same and we can some up, at the very least as set of stock applications to ignore and maybe some help keeping other application running correctly. So here is my ignore list and what I know about each item (hopefully the ones I don't know about can be explained by others):
Stock:
Touch Input - Reasons obvious by the name
HtcIQAgent - Not sure what it does exactly but it should be left running
IQRD - Not sure
OMADM - Not sure
HTC Sense - The Sense UI - Killing it only causes it to reload and auto-killing it would loop your phone into oblivion
Clock - The clock backend - Killing it will cause your alarms not to go off
Calendar - The calendar backend - Killing it will stop calendar syncing and cause you not to receive reminders for calendar events
com.coremobility.app.vnotes - The voicemail backend - Killing it will cause you not to get visual voicemail notification and stop you from being able to listen to voicemails through the voicemail app.
Mail - The Mail backend - Killing it will cause the phone to stop syncing mail from any account other the google account you associated your phone with.
Gmail - The google backend for your phone's associated account - Killing this will stop you from syncing with your phone's associated account.
Third Party:
Astrid - The Astrid widget's sync backend - Killing this will stop Astrid from syncing.
Handcent SMS - Killing this will stop the Handcent SMS process and cause Handcent to load again when you get a message which degrades performance.
That's all I have on ignore list for TasKiller. I don't use the widget to kill everything anymore because it's not necessary and I tend to dump any app that doesn't properly manager memory and sleep and either do without or find a replacement. The ignore list is still nice because TasKiller won't let you kill an ignored app and lets you hide them as well. I hope more folks will share their ignore lists.
