General :: How To Automate Bing Daily Image As Background
Jan 2, 2011
Any way to get the Bing daily background as my Android phone's background?
(on an automated daily basis without user intervention)
There are a lot of wallpaper switching apps, but none of them link to Bing's daily image.
If there were an app that would set the wallpaper from a URL [URL] ....... on a daily basis, then I could scrape the Bing image and host it for retrieval.
If I could even just find a wallpaper app that switches on a daily RSS feed, I could create my own feed to expose Bing's daily image.

I have an HTC One X (4.1.1) on O2 in the UK and every couple of days it stops getting a data connection. I contacted O2 who told me to reset the APN to default, wait an hour then reboot which fixes the problem. For another day or so...
Is there a better / permanent fix for this or at least a way to automate this process? I have automateit but I can't get it to access menu clicks - is there an alternative macro app that would do this?

I understand that the sync switch in the power control widget has effect only on google services (email, calendar, tasks, browser, play books, etc.) while it has no effect on facebook/twitter/whatsapp push notifications: for the latter I need to enable/disable inside the apps. Correct?
If that's so, I am looking for an tasker-like app that allows me the following:
every time I push a dedicated icon on the homescreen or I am connected to the home wifi, disable google sync, disable facebook/twitter push notifications and enable whatsapp notifications
Would that be possible? I understand that tasker (and other similar apps) cannot do the facebook/twitter/whatsapp part. correct?

I had the HTC Desire Z, so, I think it's not related to Droid 4, but it's Android specific.
However, whenever I try to set a background image, this one is always enlarged, coming out the edges, no matter what its size is, while I expect it to fit the display, even deformed, just as when I set a desktop image on my PC. That's what happened for example with my old Nokia N82: the image was scaled to fit the display.
I even tried to set an image of the exact resolution of the display (540 x 960), but it was always enlarged. So, is actually there a way to put a background image so that if fits the display and is not enlarged?

So I backuped all my system data and apps with titanium backup and now installed different ROM, and when I try to restore missing apps and data it asks for approval for every single app I had installed. I need to press "install" and then "done" for each app, and not only that, if I don't want to install and press cancel it stops working and I need to go to task manager, kill titanium backup and do everything again.. How to make that process automatic?

I have a background image about 100 x 100 that I want to center in an Android app. Is there a way to do this?
I'm thinking it would greatly help with orientation changes for simple apps.

I have an image that I want to place on the background on my activity. For the G1 I would use a background of 320x480 but with the nexus 1 the resolution is almost double that. Should I just place the large image and make the smaller phones size down? I am trying to keep the size of my package down as much as possible.

I created a custom background image and wanted to use it as the background for a layout that has height of wrap_content. However, the total height of the contents of within that layout are much less than the height of the background image.
When I set it as the background in XML via android:background="@drawable/image", I noticed that it displays the entire height of the image, although the height of the actual contents are much shorter.

I'm trying to set my root LinearLayout element (which is set to fill_parent in both dimensions) to have a background image which is always located in the lower left corner of the screen no matter the orientation of the device. It would be excellent if there were some way to set the background image position such as that which you can do with css using "background-position: left bottom;" but I'm not seeing a way to achieve this in Android. Is there a way to do this?

I have a linear layout which has a background image (a 9 patched png file). How can I add padding to left and right so that the background image does not take up the whole width? I have tried 'android:paddingLeft' and 'android:paddingRight', but that does not change anything.
CODE:.....
The whole background still stretches the whole screen width.

I snatch this pic from the web and want to use it as a background. But since its a rather close up shot, when applying to wallpaper we are forced with this crop thingy. Its sucks cause it will not let me select the entire picture which results in a zoomed in image on the background instead of a zoomed out entire pic.
Is there a way around this? I tried making the pic smaller but when it hits the N1 the cropping portion is the same.

I thought there was a way to set the Droid to "automatically" download and install updates to apps that were on the phone.I currently have to go into the Market app, click on Menu -> Downloads and see if any are marked 'Update Available' and update each one.Is there a way to automate this or at least get a pop-up notification that an update is available?

I need to draw a background of 320 x 480 (fullscreen) for a OpenGL game. What I did was to stretch the texture to 512 x 512 and mapped it to 320,480 quad and then drew the rest of the game elements. I tried changing the texture image to 256x256 and no noticeable improvement in speed. Game was horribly slow even on the real device. It is actually slower on the device than on the emulator... I think i am the first one to have such a situation.. I am drawing a max of 12 triangles only 2 for background and rest are 64 x 64 textures. on 5 quad made with 10 triangles. I have disabled Depth, Lighting already. Only blending enabled as I use transparent PNG for texture of sprites. render cycle is like this - draw the background - draw the sprites (only 5) [with 10 triangles only] - swapbuffer... Please don't advice me to use 2d canvas, bitmap etc... I need to do it in OpenGL only. don't think OpenGL ES 1.0 is so incapable that it can't give me atleast 25-30 fps with just 12 triangles which you one 256x256 texture and one 64x64 textures (used by 5 quads...

But when I scroll down to the listview and come up again the background image changes. Can someone tell me the reason why its happening so? Hope to get the reply soon.

I do these actions on Android G1 2 times: open gallery -> view image -> Capture screen-shot -> Go back -> exist from gallery.
But captured screen-shots of 2 times are difference: the above and below background of image viewer of first time is lighter Grey, while second time is darker.
2 screen-shots:
First time: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4064/4252991345_6ee5777bf5_o.png ,
Second time:[url]
I repeat again many time, and the "light Grey" and "dark Grey" background are alternate occurred.
Why backgrounds are not the same ? some Android optimization, cache, etc... Could you help me to find reason?

Is there any possibility to set background image dynamically? I try to explain what I mean.
String picVariable = getPictureFromServer();
ImageView image = (ImageView)v.findViewById(R.id.dynamic_image);
// I know, that doesn't work, but that's the way I looking for
image.setBackgroundResource(picVariable);
I also read this article. It would suggested in one answer, to use java reflection to get a field of the R class by name. But I've never used reflextion before.
