Anyway, can we read the Bookmark data from the Android browser.
It must be stored somewhere in the phone.

[android-beginners] Get URL from Android Browser

[mrzali]

Hi Guys,

I need a confirmation. I already did a google search but failed to
find the answer. It's possible for developer to create an application
(let say Application X) to get URL from Android Browser? Each time a
user browse the internet using Android Browser, Application X will
capture the URL.

Try to find in the android code API, but no answer. If you have the
answer please let me know.

Thanks guys.

[android-beginners] Randomly generate sound from onClick and onShake events?

[Aaron Lee]

I've literally looked everywhere on the net and found very little
clarification on how to do this.

Pretty much, I have 8 sound files laid out in an array.xml file and I
need to play a randomly chosen file ONCE per or onClick or onShake.

First off, what technique should I use to achieve this?  ARRAY->RANDOM-
>STRING->PLAY?  RANDOM INT->PLAY?  RANDOM INT->STRING->PLAY?  Any kind
of direction will help greatly cause I'm almost 3 weeks worth of
research into this.

I think even better explanation of the sqlite db usage scenarios, including

As a counter-point, a video supported with code that describes what you're
trying to do and walking through accomplishing that goal is something I've
found to be a very useful tool as both an instructor and a student. . .
especially for students who, like me, are combination auditory and visual
learners.

RE : [android-beginners] Which Widget/UI Component to use for Gameboard?

[Yoann Katchourine]

Gridview?

Yoann Katchourine, from my phone. (+33)6.50.40.15.82

Le 10 mai 2010 23:13, "Indicator Veritatis"  a écrit :

If I want to create a gameboard, like a checker board or chess board,
and allow the user to select a square by tapping on it, which widget
should I use? The obvious approach would be to make each individual
square a button, but that sounds like too many objects.

Is there some sort of clickable-map widget I could use (not 'map' in
the sense of Google Maps, of course) to return the coordinates of
where he clicked, and let the programmer calculate which square that
is in? Should I just do the whole board as one View? Then what API do
I call to get the coordinates of the tap?

I do not share this enthusiasm for videos for two reasons:

1) I rarely see a video tutorial that tells me something valuable an
HTML text tutorial with screenshots does not

2) a video tutorial is not searchable using Ctl-F in your text-editor
or web-browser.

Is it possible to know when the user touches the screen *outside* my

[android-beginners] Re: How to debug

[Indicator Veritatis]

Even before running the application under the debugger, a good first
step is to look at LogCat in the DDMS Perspective: there will probably
be a Java Exception logged there, that Exception is what caused the
shutdown. Look for your own source code's line number in the stack
trace.

[android-beginners] Re: Problem with IDE.

[Indicator Veritatis]

He is already using Eclipse. The problem is that when he relies on
Eclipse to create the folder, it fails. He has to recreate it manually
everytime he executes Project>Clean Project.

It sounds like something is wrong with the Ant script Eclipse has
built for the project, but based on the evidence here, it is hard to
be more specific.

What do you mean "nothing happens"? At that point nothing SHOULD happen
until you launch your app from Eclipse ...

[android-beginners] Changing button image based on user input.

[Tollas]

I've searched high and low for a way to do this, but have come up with
nothing.

I want to have a button on my main screen (button1).
When button1 is pressed, it takes me to a 2nd screen with multiple
buttons. (this part is done).
When a user presses a button on that screen, it goes back to the main
screen and changes that button to the same image as the button they
pressed.

Example

Screen 1
-Button1 (set as image_1 - dynamic)

Screen 2
-Button2 (set as image_1 - static)
-Button3 (set as image_2 - static)

If Button3 is pressed, Button1 will now be set as image_2.

[android-beginners] Android Emulator - Eclipse cannot see it

[tiger]

Hi,
I have tried every solution on the web, but the emulator never loads
my program. Eclipse does not seem to see the emulator has fully booted
up. I am trying to run the standard "Hello Android" program that is
created when you create a new Android project.

Last message in Eclipse is: "Launching a new emulator with Virtual
Device"...

I wait until it is fully booted up, the simulated SD card has been
prepared etc., and I unlock the screen, but nothing happens.

Running:
ADT 0.9.6
Android SDK 2.1
Eclipse Galileo (Build id: 20100218-1602)
Windows Vista

I have tried using adb kill-server, running it after a reboot (so ADB
has not been run yet on the machine) and disconnecting from the
network first and then disabling all software firewalls. I initially
tried it in Intellij Idea, and only switched to Eclipse when I had
this problem. Either way I get the same outcome in Eclipse or Intellij.

[android-beginners] Re: selecting item from a list

[moiraine]

I looked up several of the ideas, and ended up trying to add buttons
to the listview.  However, I'm running into this problem...

"ArrayAdapter requires the resource ID to be a TextView"

The XML layout (task_item.xml) in question is:


http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content">







and the code causing the problem is (after the button listener to save
space):

...});

ArrayAdapter tList = new ArrayAdapter(this,
R.layout.task_item, tasks);
setListAdapter(tList);
}


I've been playing around with this for some time, and have combed
google for an existing working example of buttons in a listview per
row, but can't seem to find anything =(

Thanks for any help,
Moiraine
