I'm trying to create a basic sample Stop Watch type application which basically displays a timer. It can then be stopped and started. I'm using the mUpdateTimeTask to do this. However my app just crashed when I run it.
publicclass TimeWatch extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private Button btnStart;
[Code]....

I am trying to create a sample application to explore Google maps through android.
When I try to run the application I only get the blank grid. no map is displayed.
If i see the DDMS logcat i get erros "Couldn't get connection factory client".
Please help me in this regard. Surprisingly the already installed Google Maps app of emulator is working fine and showing me the maps. Code...
I am very impressed with Talk To Type's accuracy. It's great for chat and many informal things but seems to be missing some features that would have been very easy to implement.1. Automatic capitalization - no brainer - it should capitalize obvious proper names, the word "I" and the beginning of every sentence, or at least this should be an option. 2. Automatic punctuation - it should be an option to place a period at the end of each phrase (defined by when you stop speaking) and if the beginning word was "who", "what", "where", "when", "how", etc...it should be an option to automatically enter a question mark. I get that you can speak the name of the punctuation mark, but this option would make it more useful. 3. Numbers less than ten should be spelled out (e.g. "nine" instead of "9") It's so accurate compared to many that I've tried to use in the past, yet it doesn't have these super-basic and very easily implemented features. It makes it less useful for e-mail, especially corporate e-mail, where the mail needs to not resemble a high school text message.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Timer which executes a TimerTask every 30 seconds. I only want the timer to launch a new TimerTask if the Activity is displayed i.e. if the user receives a phone call or launches a new activity the Timer will stop. I then need the Timer to restart when the Activity is re-launched and comes into focus.
Now this should be easy, I override the "onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus)" method and either start or stop the timer depending on the value of has Focus. The way I start the timer is to create a new Timer object and TimerTask each time and the way I stop the Timer is to call the cancel() method on the Timer object and set timer to null.
My problem is this doesn't always work, if I launch the activity which has the Timer and switch orientations quickly (to start/stop the Activity) I find the Timer is not always canceled and I end up with multiple Timers launching TimerTasks at an ever increasing rate.
How can i create layout style similar to settings in Andriod emulator? Example, in andriod T mobile, you can see, under settings, list of settings like Wireless control Call settings Sound & display Security & location etc are displayed ine by line accordingly with with brief description of each title provided with down arrows.
I would like to create to use in my application for list of items. But i cant find any tutorials similar to that display. I only found out like list view on the whole black background.
I just want to display like the settings display in emulator?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am a complete novice to the field of Android applications. I want to build a basic Android application of an "website alert and post service".
Eg: Lets take FACEBOOK or TWITTER as the website.The application which I design should intimate me about the new posts or tweets of my friends. At the same time I must be able to post or tweet just by opening a text box in the application and writing in it. As soon as I write, the message should get posted or tweeted on the website.
I am not sure about the complexity of the above application but I feel this would reduce the trouble of opening a browser, typing the website name and then logging in by putting the username and password.

First and foremost, are there many android developers here? Is this a good place for Android related discussions?I seem to be missing a rather large concept of Android development. The gist is I am struggling understanding how to tie an application together. I'm not sure how to explain it, so I thought I would do my best with an example from the Android ApiDemo... assuming you are familiar with it.
Inside the com.example.android.apis.view namespace of the ApiDemo, there is a class called Animation3.java.Animation3 inherits the activity class and there is some code inside to display animation.I can't find a reference to the class (Animation3) anywhere in the demo code (except for its definition obviously). The only mention I found is in the manifest xml file. So how the heck does this activity get started? Don't we need to create an instance of the class somewhere and fire off a method to start it? I don't understand how to generate the code that ultimately glues this class to the rest of the application.Additionally, what about other classes like views or viewgroups? How do I generate code outside the class that initiates/starts/uses/calls (insert proper term) the class.I would appreciate any code examples as well as any concept explanation or reference documents. So far I've read pages and pages on activities and views but I'm really struggling how to tie things together.
I'm trying to create a basic AlertDialog using an activity with a theme of Theme.Dialog.What I want is for there to be a horizontal bar between the title and the message. However, the bar is not being resized correctly. Rather than being the width of the activity, the bar is the width of the message text. This means that if the activity is being expanded by the message, then the bar will fill the whole activity, so it looks correct. However, if the message width is less than the activity width, the bar only displays above the part of the activity with the text. I've tried every single combination of "fill_parent" and "wrap_content" that I can think of, and none of those work.I've also tried using RelativeLayout and placing the bar above the message text, but that also doesn't work. If I use the RelativeLayout approach and set the bar to fill_parent, it causes the activity to expand to fill the whole screen width, which is also undesirable. Ideally, I want the text placed, the activity width computed, and the bar resized to that width (without affecting it). Is there some way to flag a view to fill the parent view but not to affect its size?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am coding a basic android application that has to call a web service, using KSOAP2, I am sending a request with one parameter (city) and need to get the response of the web service (basically a short String) from this site:
http://www.deeptraining.com/webservices/weather.asmx?op=GetWeather
When execultin the application, I only get a message: "This application has stopped unexpectedly". When debugging, I am getting the following error:
Thread [<3> main] (Suspended (exception VerifyError) And: ViewRoot.handleMessage(Message) line: 1198 that says: Source not Found And shows a button allowing to: Edit Source Lookup path. What does this basically mean?
My source code that generates the is the following:
private static final String SoapAction = "http://www.deeptraining.com/ webservices/GetWeather"; private static final String MethodName = "GetWeather"; private static final String Namespace = "http://www.deeptraining.com/ webservices/"; private static final String URL = "http://www.deeptraining.com/ webservices/weather.asmx";
And the main part of it: SoapObject request = new SoapObject(Namespace, MethodName); request.addProperty("City", cityname); SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope (SoapEnvelope.VER11); envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request); HttpTransport androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransport(URL); try { Result.setText("... Processing ..."); //error here: androidHttpTransport.call(SoapAction, envelope); ...
I am using Eclipse with Android plugin and KSOAP2 library.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've followed the instructions for loading the sample LVL application and it loads up with a bunch of errors. Anywhere that a "R.layout.main" or "R.*" request is made it says R cannot be resolved. It suggests importing Android.R but if I do that then it says it can't find any of the files, including the R.layout.main file which is definitely there.What gives? I have had several problems with sample applications so far, am I doing something wrong? You'd think that all you have to do is import it from existing source and it should work.
