I'm currently (trying) to make a app that simply displays a webpage.. However, I want to be able in the settings for the user to select the URL & port.. But finding it hard to do! Basically, If the user presses the options button all I need is a box with two options..
IP:
Port:
So it'll look something like:
IP Address:
[ INPUT BOX HERE FOR IP ADDRESS (@IP_ID) ][code]....
have previously done PHP, C++ & MySQL ect..

My app uses a WebView, and users sometimes adjust the zoom level to make the text larger. However the zoom level setting is lost when the Activity is closed and another one started.
I can't see how to get and set the zoom level programatically on WebView, can anyone suggest a way this could be done?
Is there a way to retrieve Browser's user-agent without having a WebView in activity?
I know it is possible to get it via WebView:
WebView view = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.someview);
String ua = view.getSettings().getUserAgentString() ;
But in my case I don't have/need a webview object and I don't want to create it just for retrieving user-agent string.
When I load the touch Facebook login page in the webview, I want that the email field to be set to a value and it can't be modified and to accomplish that I have inserted a JavaScript code in the webview disabling that element. All works fine until I want to click the login button because the page refreshes instead of submit the login info. I've noticed that if I don't disable the item, the login button works fine but I don't know why occurs that.
What can be the problem? I've thought another way to make it works: Whenever the user try to modify the email field ignore whatever he do, but I think this is a less professional way to fix that.
I want to use the default user agent for the phone in a HttpClient connection and would like to know if there is a way to obtain the user agent without having to have a WebView to query.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am creating an application which connects to the server using username/password and I would like to enable the option "Save password" so the user wouldn't have to type the password each time the application starts. I was trying to do it with Shared Preferences but am not sure if this is the best solution. I would appreciate any suggestion on how to store user values/settings in Android application.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write an app that consists of an activity that manages a background service. However, I want to implement a user setting for automatically starting the service up at boot time. I have user settings implemented with SharedPreferences and I have the services starting up at boot by using a BroadcastReceiver and listening for BOOT_COMPLETED. However, I can't figure out a good way to implement a setting so that the service is only started at boot if said setting is enabled. I can think of a few cheap ways to do this (such as messing with onCreate() in the service, or creating/checking for a file on SD card) but I want to follow good practice. There must be a good way to do this because there's tons of apps out there that do it, I just can't find anything online about how to do it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI call WebView.clearHistory(), but I am still able to go back after doing so. I want to reuse a WebView, but I don't want the back button to allow the user to go back further than the current "session" of using the WebView. Anybody know what is the best way to handle this? I thought for sure that clearHistory() would do it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI know this question has been asked in similar forms before, but I found no real answer about the following issue: On my Nexus One there's a widget to toggle on/off several things on my phone like wlan, bluetooth, gps, Why does this widget has access to the GPS, without forwarding me to the settings screen? And how can I use this functionality in my own apps? On many sites it is mentioned, this is done because of security reasons...but in a strange way, this widget may do this? why? and the better question is: how? Does someone have a clue?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am seeing an annoying bug in WebView on the G1.I have a WebView that displays an HTML page. When the user clicks on a link, the link's text is highlighted.At this point, I call WebView.clearView(), and then WebView.loadDataWithBaseURL() to load the URL that the user has just clicked on.When the new page finally shows, the WebView somehow still remembers the previous highlight area. If the user clicks on the WebView again, a "phantom highlight" at the old location will flash quickly.The phantom highlight also appears when the user moves the trackball.
