[android-beginners] Re: How to make a child activity?
thank for your reply, but I still have some troubles: now I have my main activiy been a ActivityGroup and the child activity been a simple Activity. I start the child with this code: Intent startIntent = new Intent(MyMainActivity.this, ChildActivity.class); getLocalActivityManager().startActivity(and.mypackage.ChildActivity, startIntent); this way, in the onCreate of the child activity, I can get the parent and the activity results child of something by calling isChild() method. Fine. But the screen actually doesn't appear. The documentation of startActivity of LocalActivityManager says that The caller needs to take care of adding this window to a view hierarchy, but I can't figure out how to do that. I watched the WindowManager for a suitable method but with no luck.

[android-beginners] Configuring widgets
Hello, I have 2 questions related to configuring widgets. I'd really appreciate any help/pointers. 1) I use AppWidget Configuration Activity to get the user preferences and when the user clicks 'Done', I add the widget on to the home screen. Now when the user clicks on the widget, I want to take the user back to the configuration screen. Is that possible? Currently, I' trying to send an intent from the widget class to the the configuration activity but the configuration screen does not come up. 2) In the configuration step, I take a timezone value from the user and I want to add a clock widget (I have a custom class for the clock) that displays the time for this timezone. My clock class is very similar to android AnalogClock class except that, this has an additional setTimeZone method. I use this clock class in the layout file, from which the RemoteView is created. As far as I understand there is no way to configure the timezone through RemoteViews (RemoteViews supports only very few methods like setting text, image etc). If I send an intent to the clock class to configure the timezone, would it be possible to configure each instance of the widget to a different timezone? Or is there a way to achieve this, through RemoteView itself? Any pointers will be of great help.

[android-beginners] Best Hello World Map Tutorial/Application?
Still stuck in the mud with trying to do a map application, but I am not very invested so far. I am willing to start over from scratch... Any suggestions for the best tutorial and sample code for doing a map application? Looking around I see http://www.devx.com/wireless/Article/39101/0/page/1 looks good, but it is a year old. Should I be looking for something newer? What is the cleanest way for a newbie to get going?

[android-beginners] GridView Problems.
Hi all guys, I tried to get the pics from internet and display all the results in the Gridview with a dynamic updated. However it doesn't work properly. I did some research on the internet and using AsyncTask class to avoid the block of the UI Thread. But I just can't get the Gridview Dynamiclly updated well. Here is the code snippet: public class GridViewMultiThread extends Activity { Button button = null; GridView gridView = null; Context context = null; ImageAdapter imageAdapter; private View mSearchPanel; DownloadPhotosTask downloadPhotosTask; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); gridView = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.showPhotoGridView); imageAdapter = new ImageAdapter(this); gridView.setAdapter(imageAdapter); downloadPhotosTask = (DownloadPhotosTask) new DownloadPhotosTask ().execute(); // button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { // @Override // public void onClick(View v) { // button.setEnabled(false); // downloadPhotosTask = (DownloadPhotosTask) new DownloadPhotosTask () // .execute(); // } // }); } class DownloadPhotosTask extends AsyncTaskVoid, Photo, Void implements PhotoDownloadListener { // @Override // protected void onPreExecute() { // if (mSearchPanel == null) { // mSearchPanel = ((ViewStub) findViewById(R.id.stub_search)) // .inflate(); // // ProgressBar progress = (ProgressBar) mSearchPanel // .findViewById(R.id.progress); // progress.setIndeterminate(true); // // ((TextView) mSearchPanel.findViewById(R.id.label_loading)) // .setText(loading); // // final View cancelButton = mSearchPanel // .findViewById(R.id.button_cancel); // cancelButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { // public void onClick(View v) { // onCancelSearch(); // } // }); // } // } // private void onCancelSearch() { // if (downloadPhotosTask != null // downloadPhotosTask.getStatus() == AsyncTask.Status.RUNNING) { // downloadPhotosTask.cancel(true); // downloadPhotosTask = null; // } // } @Override protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) { DownLoader.getInstance().downLoadImage(this); return null; } @Override public void onPhotoDownloadListener(Photo photo) { if (photo != null !isCancelled()) { publishProgress(photo); } } @Override public void onProgressUpdate(Photo... photos) { for (Photo photo : photos) { imageAdapter.addPhoto(photo); gridView.invalidateViews(); // imageAdapter.registerDataSetObserver(observer) } } } } class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter { private Context mContext; private ListPhoto photos = new ArrayListPhoto(); public ImageAdapter(Context context) { this.mContext = context; } public void addPhoto(Photo photo) { photos.add(photo); } @Override public int getCount() { return photos.size(); } @Override public Object getItem(int position) { return photos.get(position); } @Override public long getItemId(int position) { return position; } @Override public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { final ImageView imageView; if (convertView == null) { imageView = new

[android-beginners] Stuck in Mud Over GWT?
Newbie here... I have used Eclipse to get a HelloAndroid to work and now I am trying to get a most basic MapActivity to work. In my source file I have a: import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity; And Eclipse complains Import com.google cannot be resolved. OK, so I Google around and it seems I need to edit my .gwt.xml file, and I don't seem to have one. Another hit suggests: Go to your Eclipse preferences, then Google - GWT on the side bar, and then add another entry to the list box pointed to your GWT 1.4 SDK. [...] Except I can't find that in the Eclipse preferences. I think another hit said to right click on the project and do something with a Google sub-menu, but I don't have that either. I think I have something basic missing with my Eclipse setup. I am running Eclipse IDE for Java Developers Build id: 20090920-1017, for plugins I have among the listed Android Development Toolkit 0.9.3v200909031112-12945.

[android-beginners] headphone intent receiving

[android-beginners] Re: linked text view?
continuing on my possible solution ... it appears that android won't let me underline text (hint, hint: maybe i shouldn't be doing this). it looks like i can set the link mask to everything, get the associated URL spans, and set the on click listeners for those.

[android-beginners] Re: Stuck in Mud Over GWT?
A cannot be resolved error for those classes usually means you have the wrong build target set for the project. Right-click on the project in Eclipse, choose the Properties option, then the Android option from the list on the left of the Properties dialog, then make sure the checked build target says Google APIs. The Android 1.x build targets will not work. You can see instructions about using the Maps API on Android here: http://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/maps-overview.html Watch out searching for the term GWT. In my experience that refers to Google Web Toolkit, which has nothing to do with Android. On Oct 13, 4:24 pm, Kent Borg kentb...@borg.org wrote: Newbie here...

[android-beginners] Re: listview
Hi, You can try getIdentifier: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/res/Resources.html#getIdentifier(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) However, note this note: Note: use of this function is discouraged. It is much more efficient to retrieve resources by identifier than by name. If you still think this will be the best way to go about it, you should probably cache the resources ints after they've been determined Cheers, James On Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 9:11 AM, frederic glouzon frederic.glou...@gmail.com wrote: hello, I am looking for a way to display the 200+ images of the countries of my listview.

[android-beginners] Re: Reading/Decoding bar code stored in resources
feels good to see your reply. Its just an assignment for me. yes i am stuck with part 1. In the start i tried a lot with camera stuff and searched for source codes to display camera preview and take snap. I was successful with getting camera preview but either the image was not saved or the image taken was of very small size like thumbnail. so then i thought about using the built-in camera app. Then after few days of research i able to call the camera app as i click a button in my custom app. but now the issue is after taking snap i want to run my decode function.But i dont know how to exit the camera preview and call my decode() function:S so its here i am stuck with. I have posted it and i'll post it again. it wud be great if you could help me. Regards, wahib On 10/14/09, Abhishek abhishek.moh...@gmail.com wrote: Wahib.. sorry for the mistake in your name. Thanks for pointing out. 3 phases of my app 1) Scan picture(bar code) from camera store 2) Decode the barcode 3.) Search the product information and display. I am done with Part 2.. I think you are also working on same application if I am not wrong. Now I will concentrate on Part 1. Where are you stuck in Part1? What is the error if any? Please let me know.

Its not working with 2D and i dont know how to do it though multiformat i guess means it shud support 2D as well. Well this will solve ur problem. I also tried to read it with a sdcard image coz after all it has to fetch from the image taken by camera. but i dont have a camera and unable to push image in gallery after lots of tries so it still undone.

[android-beginners] Re: Can we develop android apps in C or C++?
And pay special attention to the line at that link that says: The NDK will not benefit most applications. So the implication is that trying to use the NDK as a means to write your entire application in C/C++ instead of Java should not be expected to work well, if it works at all.
