Writing App That Responds To What Is Typed On Keyboard
May 9, 2011
I am requesting information regarding writing an app that would respond to user input from the keyboard. Basically, I want to turn certain words into symbols when they are typed. So, if 'brb' was typed, then I would put up "Be Right Back" or something similar onto the screen.
So, I need to know the following:
1. How to run an app as a thread
2. How to have an app monitor what is typed in as input from the keyboard
2a. Is this limited to text / email / any app?

Has anyone else had issues with input boxes not displaying what is typed? I have tried the stock keyboard, better keyboard, and am now using swype. They all do it and its random. I regularly use Google Talk and will be chatting for a little bit, hit the end button to lock the screen, come back 2 minutes later and it won't take anything I type. It usually comes back 5-10 minutes later or if I reboot.
This has been going on since 1.5 and continued in stock 2.1 and is still there rooted using Fresh 2.1.

When writing SMS / MMS in JB 4.2.2 CM 10.1 the keyboard drops and dissapears after writing about for 2-3 seconds.
You have to press the Menue botton in order to get the keyboard back, and try to write again for 2-3 seconds before it happens again!
I even tried the GO SMS Pro-app to see if that worked, but it's the same thing - keyboard drops after writing a few letters.

Suppose you run a web service that accepts requests from Android devices and spits out some data. Is there any way to ensure that the request actually came from within an application on the Android handset? In other words, restrict access to all other devices - iphones, desktops, laptops, even requests through a web browser ON an android phone that didn't come from the app itself? Simply, how can I enforce that my web server ONLY responds to my Android-based app?

I just got my Nexus One today and got service going (still waiting on the ability for me to use mobile web) But I'm connected to my WIFI right now and when I try to install any apps it freezes in the "Downloads" section saying "Starting Download..."
Download issues: stalled at "Starting download" - Android Market Help

Sometimes I feel as if my optical track pad moves and responds too slowly. Does anyone know if there's a way to adjust track pad movement?

Can anyone recommend a good battery monitor-typed app? It can be a widget or app, but I'd like to have some sort of visual representation of how much battery is left (like a %). Doesn't have to be in notification area (unless I can hide the stock one). All the ones I search in the market just don't look like they are worth anything, and if I pay for one, I want it to be worth it. I'm monitoring my battery usage. I installed one and it told me 30% but the stock battery bar was full. It was then uninstalled.

One of the things I missed of my Palm Pre was being able to type a text and it will save what I typed even if I completely exit out of the program.
On the EVO when I typed the message and didn't send, I would lose the message when I hit the Home button to do something else. When I came back, the message was gone. I know if I hit the "back" button, it will save as drafts, but thats not what i'm talking about.
However, this morning I typed a message and hit the home button (In my mind I knew it would be gone, but it wasn't that important of a message) but when I went back to the text message, it took me back to the same exact message with my text saved.
What did I do differently? And how can I keep this feature?

I just heard this on another forum, that if you need to change something you typed you have to go to landscape and use the dpad. You supposedly cannot use the touch screen to go back. Can this be true?

Is it somehow possible that instead of:
Button btnNextWord = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.btnNextWord);
Eclipse automatically generates for me something like:
Button btnNextWord = this.btnNextWord;
or
Button btnNextWord = R.id.getBtnNextWord(this);?

Let me explain :
Let's say I was typing for a bit and I noticed that I mis typed something. If I want to put my cursor where the mis typed letter is, it is not always the easiest thing to do. I noticed on my friends iphone if he were to put the cursor near the letter and hold his finger there a zoomed in window would pop up and alow him to move the cursor to the location he wants to put it.
Is there any app that can do this on the droid?

trying to create a broadcast receiver which responds to system events and change system settings. I don't need any interaction from the user so I don't need an activity and have been trying to do everything through the manifest file. I've put a log event into my onReceive method but it never logs anything so I'm presuming my method is never called. I've tried this with both the 1.5 and 1.6 SDKs. I was hoping somebody could have a look at my code please and let me know if there are any problems.

I tried it and it works so far.
Dev = ne0fhyk from XDA.
From the XDA forum: Link to app page = [APP][ROOT/Keyboard] Keyboard Manager - Dual keyboard: Portrait/landscape switch - xda-developers
Verbage:
Keyboard Manager allows you to customize what keyboard (input method) appear on input based on your phone orientation.
It displays the keyboards you have enabled on your android device, and let you select one per orientation (landscape/portrait).
As your phone switch orientation, the app automatically switch the keyboard.
Requirements:
- Rooted android device (app was tested on Samsung captivate 2.1)
- Root Explorer app, or similar app that allows you to edit the permissions of a file.
To install:
1- Download the app (KeyboardManager.apk) on your device sdcard.
2- Using Root Explorer, move the apk file to /system/app
3- Using Root Explorer, edit the file permissions like below:
-- User: 'Read/Write' checked
--Group: 'Read' checked
--Others: 'Read' checked
4- Exit Root Explorer
The app should be visible in your launcher as 'Keyboard Manager'
Update:
- Added option to disable notification icon
-' start on boot' feature is disabled because it's not yet complete and tested... Sorry for the confusion
Bugs:
-On certain applications (i.e: Messaging on Samsung Captivate), the input window occasionally freeze on orientation switch. Exiting the app, and resuming should fix it.
The app is still in development.

For those of you that are familiar with better keyboard. I was wondering about an easy way to switch from the t9 keyboard to the regular qwerty keyboard. I was under the impression that swiping left would toggle between the 2 but all that does is bring me to the numbers and symbols keyboard. I've been changing back and forth to the android keyboard because its faster than going into the better keyboard settings.

I have an app that is working, all is cool. Now, it has textview object, and I would like to save that content to *.txt file, in a "simple" way (not for me obviously). I have a simple button, and by clicking it I would like to save *.txt file to SD card, (root of the card is ok).

There's quite a few apps for reading SMS messages in big font, but I can't find any way to write a SMS using a font in 30+ points of size. I couldn't find anything suitable using Google nor Android Market.

I am currently writing the backend for a service which has 3 clients: browser, android native and iphone native. I am having a little trouble with coming up with an authentication system since I don't know what can really be done on the clients.
I am using django + twisted for the backend.
Basically, I am going to be writing RestfulAPIs to open up for the clients on both phones to call.
Now the real question is, how should I come up with an authentication system?
I have thought about using sessionids, this works very well with the browser and I can use django's integrated app for that.
However, I don't know if it's possible for both the iphone and android to obtain a unique sessionid on the handset. Should I write an API call to distribute unique sessionids?
if that's the case, is it possible for me to still use django's authentication system since a lot of the stuff here are customized? ( I am not even using a rdbms - I am sticking with mongodb, so I was on the verge of dropping django's authentication app ftm).
I have looked at foursquare's API and their basic auth method requires you to pass in user:password in every http request header. That adds 1 additional authentication each call which can kind of seem excessive.

This is a pretty open ended question.I have a T-Mobile Touch and have some free time on my hands. So far as i understand im stuck with Android 1.5 and no sign of T-Mobile or Huawei releasing a ROM using a more up-to-date version of the Android SDK.Im asking what are the major complexities involved with making a ROM for this fone using a newer version of the Android SDK?

Since upgrading to 2.2 the messaging app is randomly jumping to the top of the conversation when I'm writing a text. I can't work out if there's any pattern, it's not a particular keypress or message length. The only work around is to either scroll down again (inpractical in an 800 message conversation) or press back to save as a draft and then edit the draft. The annoying thing is that the bug where the conversation jumped to the bottom after deleting or locking a text has been fixed.

I'm not sure what's wrong with the application or if I am just being blind to it - but if I try to write on a friend's wall on facebook through the stream, there's no way to do so. I can only comment on their actions or other people's comments on their walls.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start in case one wants to write a firewall for Android? I am interested especially in how would one go about in blocking access for various applications that are blacklisted from a firewall application. As far as I could find, there are no firewall applications in the real sense except Droidwall which uses iptables on rooted phones, but I would like to see if there are any API calls currently in Android that may help with this task, be it NDK or SDK.
