Is this possible? More specifically, let's say that I want to use the stock Desk Clock application on the Evo. How would I go about doing that, if at all? And if I wanted (because I'm a whore) to use the Nexus live wallpaper? I assume that that's doable, and easier as well?

I am having a little trouble using some external source files. I am new to eclipse and the methods used to import external source files. Basically this is what I have done. Downloaded the source files for a java project called "TrueLicense" via CVS. Imported this library by going to "Projects" and adding the "TrueLicense" project (I am not sure if I should do this in "Source", "projects" or "Libraries"?) Imported the required classes into my android project without any compile errors.
When I run the program I get:
12-05 15:52:28.632: WARN/dalvikvm(724): VFY: unable to find class referenced in signature (Ljavax/swing/filechooser/FileFilter;)
Then a whole lot of other errors. This seems sensible as there is a sections of the TrueLicense package that used Swing. How do I only import the parts of TrueLicense that I need?
I'm trying a run without sense to hopefully relieve a lot of the lag problems I've been having. I know I should root, but I don't want to while I'm still under warranty and I'd like to give it a try without to see if I would like it without sense. I have launcher pro installed with home switcher and that seems to have changed over fine(with one incident where my sense home came up). The problems I'm having are with the messaging and dialer apps. I've installed handcent and like it, but I still get the notifications for the sense messaging app, so now I get two every text messaged. Also I've installed Dialer one, but the green phone button still fires up the stock dialer. Is there any way to fully replace these parts without rooting? I also really want the calendar app back, is the launcher pro one similar enough? I like seeing the whole month and being able to scroll with just the widget.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am a huge fan of the Fresh builds by Flipz over at Geek For Me - Sprint Evo 4g & CDMA Hero. I have a proposal for a new build (once able, of course) and wanted your guys opinions. I think most of us agree the best part of HTC's 'sense' is the widgets. HTC designed the Sense UI back in Android 1.5 days and it's a bit dated. The Froyo version of the Picture Gallery, Music Player, Dialer, App Drawer and Lock Screen are far superior to the Sense iterations. I think this would be the best build on the EVO: I'm talkin' the actual Froyo build here, not something that 'looks like' Froyo, not the HTC build with Sense disabled (still keeps the HTC Music, Gallery, Dialer, Lock screen etc.). I'm talkin' the full whammy, 'extra pickles' awesomeness. Code...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to try the Fresh Rom because of 4g and I hear it has excellent battery life. However, HTC (in their infinite wisdom) has decided that we really don't need a way to toggle bluetooth on or off during a call and has removed that button from their dialer. Bluetooth, what's that? A bluetooth toggle to be used during a call? No one would need that, let's code it out on purpose! Ok, enough ranting. Is there a way to get the vanilla froyo dialer on a Fresh (sense-based) ROM?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been a couple of days trying to solve this thing but I can'f figure it out.The problem is, simple activity, with simple layout, ScrollView -> LinearLayout -> and a lot of buttons inside the layout (within the scroll content). Everything works just fine but one tricky thing. When I click a button let's say at the top of the scroll content and inmediatelly I scroll down to the bottom of the content and I click other button there, nothing happens until I click a second time and all come to normal again.This can be reproduced anytime and it's code independent (i've tried more than 20 scenarios). I've not much experience in android yet but looks like the scroll listener stops the onclick listener or something like that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I've been extremely frustrated by this for a long time now.I've posted before, but can't seem to find a good solution. My goal is to have something pretty much exactly like the installed application details page in the Android Market.I need a list of items displayed along with other content above the list, and would like the content above to scroll up along with the list (exactly like the application details does for the "My Review" and other descriptive info).Due to responses to my previous posts, I came to believe that it really wasn't possible to do this with a ListView.So rather than using a ListView, I refactored my code to use a simple LinearLayout and add individual View items to the list, thinking I could just set each View as clickable and add an OnClickListener to each View in the LinearLayout.That's not working at all though, and now I'm getting even more frustrated.If someone can help me get the OnClickListener working, then I think it'll work, but I do need a separator for the LinearLayout.How do I add a separator like the one used for ListView to my LinearLayout?
View 12 Replies View RelatedWhen I use customized components in XML, could I use a short name of component instead of a fully qualified class name? I wonder if some configuration file exists to do that work.
For example, my customized components is ex.object.RoundRect,
I should use it in xml file like this: <ex.object.RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />
But
I want to use it like this: <RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />
Is it possible? Is there a configuration file that can map the fully qualified class name to a short name?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to develop and distribute some custom UI components for android apps. This custom component can do some network communicatioon too with my server. So by this I want to hide the communication protocol from my component users, and will show the content as provided by my control eg sponsor ads. This concept is same as Apple's iAD. Issue: 1. I want to hide my custom component code from its users so that they just need to include it in their antivity rest its upto me. 2. I have not implemented but sure that a UI component can do network communication.
I am new to Android development. I have been searching google to add multiple components to a View programmatically .i.e add TextField, Button, etc one below the other. I could only find examples where they have used XML to design the UI. If i want to add the components programmatically how can I do that or I will have design the UI only using the XML.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI know this question is definitely solved somewhere many times already, please enlighten me if you know of their existence,
Quick rundown:
I want to compute from a 3 axis accelerometer the gravity component on each of these 3 axes.
I have used 2 axes free body diagrams to work out the accelerometer's gravity component in the world X-Z, Y-Z and X-Y axes. But the solution seems slightly off, it's acceptable for extreme cases when only 1 accelerometer axis is exposed to gravity, but for a pitch and roll of both 45 degrees, the combined total magnitude is greater than gravity (obtained by Xa^2+Ya^2+Za^2=g^2; Xa, Ya and Za are accelerometer readings in its X, Y and Z axis).
More detail:
The device is a Nexus One, and have a magnetic field sensor for azimuth, pitch and roll in addition to the 3-axis accelerometer.In the world's axis (with Z in the same direction as gravity, and either X or Y points to the north pole, don't think this matters much?), I assumed my device has a pitch (P) on the Y-Z axis, and a roll (R) on the X-Z axis. With that I used simple trig to get:
Sin(R)=Ax/Gxz
Cos(R)=Az/Gxz
Tan(R)=Ax/Az
There is another set for pitch, P.Now I defined gravity to have 3 components in the world's axis, a Gxz that is measurable only in the X-Z axis, a Gyz for Y-Z, and a Gxy for X-Y axis.Gxz^2+Gyz^2+Gxy^2=2*G^2 the 2G is because gravity is effectively included twice in this definition. Oh and the X-Y axis produce something more exotic I'll explain if required later.From these equations I obtained a formula for Az, and removed the tan operations because I don't know how to handle tan90 calculations (it's infinity?).So my question is, anyone know whether I did this right/wrong or able to point me to the right direction?
I'm trying to run the "HelloTriangle" example, from The OpenGL ES 2.0 Programming Guide, in the Android emulator.I import egl.EGLConfig and opengles.GL10 from javax.microedition.khronos, but the ESContext type and definitions such as GL_COMPILE_STATUS and GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER can't be resolved.I reworked the triangle example somewhat for Android in that I'm using GLSurfaceView. I undertand that it is supposed to be used instead of OpenGLContext in the newer versions of the SDK.Am I using a "non-Android" approach to OpenGL ES? If so, what's the right one?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a LinearLayout and first I have a MapView and below the map I have a TableLayout with informations fields.
Now I would like to add additional information fields (e.g. a new TableLayout) when the user select a specific menu item on the Options Menu. I would like to have these fields either between the MapView and the TableLayout, or on top of the bottom area of the MapView.
How can I add this TableLayout with additional information fields dynamically after the user has selected a menu item? How can I show it below the MapView or on top of the bottom area of the MapView?

During the installation of my Android SDK, I am getting stuck during the process where the manager goes out and downloads all the revisions of the APIs and the SDKs.
It is potentially due to a socket issue that typically occurs when a database query is called and there are a large number of TCP connections... according to googling my error (No buffer space available (maximum connections reached?): recv failed )...

I had posted a similar thread a while back and received no feedback, so let me try to be more clear.I am able to use Androids components to build the most basic layouts, which include images, buttons, text areas, etc. These are like Android Lego! I can build the castle. BUT I want to design my own component, my own Lego, that draws on the screen and uses the available area that the Android components have not used. ie, I want to have a top layer of buttons, and the rest of the screen, whatever it is, I want to use to draw 2d graphics. So, I want to make my own Lego, and use it with the other Android Lego. However, I'm also trying to be a good developer and making this for whatever resolution is thrown my way. What is the best way to do this considering the deluge of different resolutions Android developers must cope with? Is there a way to do a table view and return the remaining screen size? Or, am I stuck making an entire new box of Lego here?
