Apr 14, 2010I'm tired of carrying (and misplacing) my stupid drivers license just so I can show it to cashiers at Denny's or wherever they don't accept debit. But it takes too long to open up gallery and sort through all of my photos. If I could set it up as an icon on my home screen, or even the folder it is in as an icon so i could quickly pull it up, that would be perfect.
View 5 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Run ADB Command From Home Screen Shortcut?
May 14, 2013The backstory first:
I have a Nexus 10. I like to plug it into my TV via HDMI and watch videos or play games, or what have you. Since the aspect ratio doesn't match the TV I get black bars on the sides. In a command line, one can type
Code:
am display-size 2560x1440
to change the resolution of the screen and get rid of the black bars on the TV completely (at the cost of adding black bars on the top and bottom of the tablet.)
Code:
am display-size reset
Sets it back to normal.
Rather than typing this into a terminal /every time/ I want to do this, is there a simple widget or app that will let me set up a shortcut on the homescreen that I can just click on to toggle instead?

Apr 10, 2009I have some questions related to Android's home-screen contents:

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Adding His Application To The Add To Home Screen - Shortcut Section
Jul 22, 2010In my android application, I create shortcuts by code to some activities within my application. I do this feature by using the broadcast:
intent.setAction("com.android.launcher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT");sendBroadcast(intent);
And that's cool, that really work!
Now I would like to do something different: I have seen that some actions can "register" somewhere to be added in the Android menu, when you long press on the Home like this one:
http://www.androidtapp.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/UltimateFaves-Add-Home-Screen-Shortcut.jpg
So my main question is the next one:
How is that possible to register for this menu. I guess there is some line to add in the manifest, but cannot see where to do that!
There is a secondary question: once i will have succeed doing that, may I add a different number of shortcuts in my menu ( imagine That I would like to do that for a multi-account twitter client, I would like to see a different for each twitter account in this list.) So the number of shortcut is programmaticaly computed.

Mar 13, 2010Does anyone know of any application that allows placing a shortcut on the home screen to a sequence of actions? That one shortcut would, for instance:
Set WiFi Off
Set the Car Mode app on
Set the Disable Car Screen app on
Toggle from 3G to 2G
or another macro shortcut could:
Turn the LockRinger app off
Switch to Silent mode
Turn WiFi on
I've been searching the app market but, so far, I haven't discovered anything offering that sort of handy functionality.

Android :: Strange Force Close On Acore When Adding A Home Screen Shortcut
Jan 2, 2010I want to add home screen shortcuts to individual chat rooms, in my app.
Here's my code to do so:
CODE:.............
When I go to add the shortcut to my home screen, I get a Force Close, not on my own process, but on com.android.acore(!). I've run the debugger and verified that my code gets executed all the way to the call to finish().
If I do this instead for the EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON:
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON, R.drawable.icon);
It works fine and places the shortcut, and the shortcut behaves correctly -- but of course the shortcut has the stock Android icon, not mine, since this isn't the proper way to specify the icon.
When I look at the source code of other apps that have done this, and at the one example of it in the official Android reference area, my code looks identical. My icon's a standard 48x48 png that I use for the app's main icon, without problems. I've verified this problem on an emulator running stock 1.6, haven't tested other versions.
HTC Droid Eris :: Eris Home Screen Jumping Spontaneously
Jun 4, 2010This is driving me crazy. The phone is pretty much useless when this starts happening. I will be on the Main home screen and then it will start jumping Home screens as if I'm swiping to the left but I'm NOT swiping! Once it is on the last screen to the left it won't let me switch back to HOME. I can almost never do anything when this happens. I haven't dropped the phone. I've reset the G-Sensor. Has anyone experianced this? I've even done a Wipe of the device.

HTC Droid Eris :: Screen Cracked - Unable To Use Menu Or Home Buttons And Entire Left Part Of Screen And More - Keyboard Lag
Feb 23, 2010So through a weird assortment of events i managed to crack the screen on my Eris. But this is the trippy part, I didnt break the glass but the touch sensors underneath. So now i am unable to use the menu or home buttons and the entire left part of my screen and more. I am unable to unlock my device in anyway that i know(menu button, the slider). Is there any other way to unlock it? I now have 11 unread texts and 4 voicemails that I desperately want to view. Oh and I know some of you won't be happy about what I'm about to say but.... I took the leap to the moto droid. I had the chance to get it on a 1 year because I didnt get insurance and I went for it. I will really miss my Eris but the keyboard lag was just killing me.

Apr 8, 2010I've been playing around with some of the other Home alternatives. So far, I found good things and bad things about each one of them. Right now, I'm trying out Helix launcher.

I like the clean look of the generic Android Home, but 3 screens is a little lacking.
