Ah.

Was this a home screen widget?

Re: [android-beginners] Loading images in android

[Justin Anderson]

When you say "load an image" do you mean just display it somehow?  If so,
then just create a new activity with an ImageView in it and call
setImageResource on the view.

[android-beginners] Re: Bluetooth Debugging on phones

[Megh]

Ah, sorry.

Debugging statements like: Log.e(TAG, "++ ON START ++");
that would show up on the LogCat when using the emulator, don't work
when the phone is plugged in and the app is running on it.

I'm wondering if this is true, or it's just me missing something.
Also, does anyone have any other recommendations for using debugging
statements?

[android-beginners] What is drawable-hdpi, drawable-ldpi and drawable-mdpi ?

[Shaista Naaz]

Why it is that whenever I select the SDK target other than Android 1.1 for a
new project. I get 3 folders instead of one folder for drawable inside res.
And that is drawable-hdpi, drawable-ldpi and drawable-mdpi.

Please kindly comment.

Re: [android-beginners] What is drawable-hdpi, drawable-ldpi and drawable-mdpi ?

[Kostya Vasilyev]

Shaista,

"drawable" is the default. If a higher or lower resolution image is 
needed, depending on the screen, Android can scale it as appropriate.


However, this automatic scaling doesn't always look that great. In those 
cases, you, as the developer, can provide "alternate" versions of the 
same resource in appropriate folders. They will override automatically 
scaled resources from "drawable" as appropriate based on the resource 
directory name (i.e. "hdpi" for high-density screens, etc.).


This gives you fine grained control: some drawables can be scaled 
automatically (if this scaling looks good to you), and others can have 
alternate (high-res or low- res) versions.

Search the archives of:

http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform

for past discussions on translating Android string resources to other languages.

You posted this question to a list dedicated to beginners working with
the Android SDK, which has nothing to do with building your own phone
firmware, which is what is required to add a new language "in a phone
that will work on Android".

[android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[ethan]

Justin
Thanks for the reply. What i am trying to do is following:

Based on code logic, i am trying to print on the screen " There are 4
flowers".
However instead of using the word flowers, i want to put icon of
flowers in its place. The icon is stored as a jpeg in my res/drawable
folder. The number of flowers can vary from 1 to 4.

So do i first need to create 4 imageviews in my layout and then call
each one out separately using setimageResourse ?

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[Justin Anderson]

Unless I am misunderstanding, you would only need one ImageView...  You said
you want to replace the word "flowers" with an image, right?  Not the number
4?  If that is really what you would want to do then you would only need one
ImageView...

[android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[ethan]

You are correct.

Instead of displaying the number 4, or 3 or 2 or 1, i want to display
4 flowers, or 3 flowers, or 2 flowers...
so you are saying that i can achieve that with one imageview ?

As you can see that the Win7 doesn't deploy the app.

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[Justin Anderson]

No... displaying the number of flowers is NOT the same as replacing the word
"flower" with an image, which is what you originally described.

To display 4 flower images you would need 4 ImageViews.  To display 3 flower
images you would need 3 ImageViews.

[android-beginners] debug application key and beta testers

[Bret Foreman]

I'm building/signing my application with a debug key. Likewise, I'm
accessing Google Maps with an API key generated by the debug app key.
Now I've got a couple of beta testers and Google Maps isn't working
for them. Is it time to get a real application key and a new Maps key
or is there another way to run the beta phase?

[android-beginners] How to pass on extras to a custom intent?

[Victoria]

hi there,

I am trying to pass on a videoclip from one activity to another by
calling an intent: What I would like to do is to pass on the clicked
video (the video's uri) and display it in a videoview within the novel
activity. But I am a bit stuck and don't know what I should do...

This is what I got so far for calling the intent and passing on the
extra:

String uri = videocursor.getString(0); //uri holds the currently
selected/clicked video uri
 Intent editorIntent = new Intent(EditGalleryView.this,
EditorView.class);
 editorIntent.putExtra(???);
 startActivity(editorIntent);

My problem is what I should to pass on the uri as Extra and how I can
retrieve that in the other activity...

If someone could help me out here, that would be fantastic, thank you
very much in advance

Re: [android-beginners] Developing a website for nice/elegant visualization in Android Tablet...

[Android Appman]

Not sure if this helps b'cause I am a beginner but I would say from my past
experience formulate a basic look and feel for
your website , maybe just the main page frame and a few Navigate tags and
see how it looks on a DroidTablet.

Try PHP, Ruby or anything else that will get you the results you are looking
for graphically , The fact that its a DroidTablet
should be the least of your worries at least for look and feel.

There is still a great deal of push back from WebDevs who do not like
Java-ish style approach to what we do

hope this helps

Re: [android-beginners] How to pass on extras to a custom intent?

[Justin Anderson]

No worries.  Glad you were able to figure it out.

There are just quite a few people who post without ever trying to find
answers for themselves.  Rather than just giving them the answer and
justifying their lack of initiative, I try to help them by not helping
them... at least not until they have shown that they have tried to look for
the answer for themselves.  ;-)  If they are always just given the answer
then they never learn anything except to mooch off others experience.

Sometimes it is not possible to tell if that is the case or not.  In general
it is a good idea when posting a question to state what you have tried and,
if possible, some code.

I am often criticized for this, but that is just because people mistake my
responses for rudeness... Granted, sometimes it is a little on the blunt
side and perhaps a little rude, but I think that is more the exception than
the rule in my case, and people just misread it.

The Android Dev Guide has a really good link to a guide about posting
questions to get answers... I wish more people would read it and follow its
advice:
http://developer.android.com/resources/community-groups.html
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html (This link came from the
above link)

Thanks,
Justin

[android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

Ok. So in this case, is there a way to dynamically create imageviews
from the code (not xml) based on number of images to display ?
Or should i just statically create 4 imageviews and only populate them
based on the number of flowers i want to display ?

Re: [android-beginners] How to pass on extras to a custom intent?

[Victoria Busse]

I can totally understand that :) and I wouldn't consider your attitude or
opinion as rude but I can imagine that some people may misunderstand
that...

For me asking is often the final desperation after having tried for hours
(including searching through similar problems) and not being able to solve
the problem myself

But I am so interested in Android and really trying to learn and understand
it and so far (even after hours of desperation and hard work ;)) it has been
fun.

And to be honest for me it is always better if I actually solve a problem
myself because it feels good and makes me think that I actually understood
something, if you know what I mean :)


And thank you :)

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[Kostya Vasilyev]

You could use one image view and several different images with varying
number of flowers.

Or create the required number of image views from code, all using the same
image.

Or declare four image views in your layout and manage their visibility from
code.

What does "isn't working" mean? If tiles aren't showing up, it's probably
the key. If it's crashing or insulting their moms, then you have a different
issue.

Which key you use shouldn't matter, AFAIK, as long as they match.

Re: [android-beginners] Android based application for healthcare

[Jun Jiang]

Awesome, but I think it is little things to do with android.  Sensors for
emr can communicate with patients' with. Bluetooth but the emr areas should
not be provided by google map, you should collect the data your self

On Jul 24, 2010 10:34 AM, "AAJ"  wrote:

hey all,
We are graduate student, currently working on our masters project on
an android platform for a healthcare domain. Since there are not many
pacemaker reated applications on an android phone, we decided to work
on the same. Our project scenario is something like this-

Pacemaker patients are not suppose to get exposed to EMR affected
areas. The pacemaker will immediately stop functioning if exposed to
EMR. So our application will be alerting the patients based on the
intensity of the EMR . So here, we will be using-
1. A pacemaker simulator which will periodically check the heartbeat
and if the heart does not function properly, the pacemaker will
regulate it.
2. The handset has an in-built sensor, which can sense the intensity
of the EMR.
3. Also using Google maps we can pin the nearby locations which has
high intensity EMR.

Now, some of the things that we have to do-
1. Implement the pacemaker simulator, since we are not able to access
the source code for the already available ones.
2. Implement the EMR sensor , to sense the EMR intensity.
3. Alert the patient as soon as he/she enters the danger zone.
4. Also show all the nearby EMR affected areas.

Our questions are-
1. Is the project feasible ?? As a masters project can we go ahead and
start working on this.
2. How do we find out all the EMr affected areas nearby ? Which means
how do we connect Google maps API with the sensor program ??

It would be great if you could help us out with these questions. We
are really looking forward to working on an Android platform .


Thanks
AAJ.

[android-beginners] [Q] Make the activity blur/dim with startActivityForResult?

[CyanBlue]

Hi...  :)

I am trying to start an activity and have that activity blur/dim over
the current activity just like you do the same with the dialog
widget... and I have tried reasonably all I can find on the web and I
am not able to get it working...  :(

On ActivityMain.java, I am using this code to start a new activity on
button click...

public void onClick(View v)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityMain.this,
com.cyanblue.activitytest.ActivitySub.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
}

In onCreate of the ActivitySub, I have tried these two examples which
does not work at all...

getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);

WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes();
lp.dimAmount = 0.0f;
getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);

and I am about to give up after trying this for 4 nights after
work...  and I feel like it is not supposed to work or something...

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong???

I feel like startActivityForResult closes the current activity and run
new activity till it gets the result back not like the dialog which
runs on top of the current activity...  Is there any way to do this on
multiple acitivities???

Thank you...  :)

Re: [android-beginners] [Q] Make the activity blur/dim with startActivityForResult?

[Justin Anderson]

The code I use is the following and it works for me:

Window mainWindow = getWindow();

//Set Blur
mainWindow.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);

//Set Dim
int dimAmt = 50; //In my application this is actually a setting stored in
preferences...
mainWindow.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DIM_BEHIND);
WindowManager.LayoutParams params = m_mainWindow.getAttributes();
params.dimAmount = dimAmt / 100f;
m_mainWindow.setAttributes(params);

As for the dim amount... you are setting it to 0 which tells it not to dim.
Also, I noticed that you are using setFlags while I use addFlags.  Try using
addFlags and see what happens...

Hope that helps,
Justin

have other apps in mind but I currently put so much time in my current

that one app.  I have several years experience in general programming, so
that helps

[android-beginners] Re: Bluetooth Debugging on phones

[DonFrench]

Well, I use Eclipse and view the log file with the LogCat View, which
works great -- other than the well-known problem with occasionally
having to reset adb or restart eclipse to get the log file refreshed.
I can't imagine that using the command line creates some other problem
but I haven't tried it.

[android-beginners] The content of the adapter has changed but ListView did not receive a notification

[nimusi]

I have an app in which the main activity is a listview.  Clicking on
an item in the list item opens a new activity which is a detail view
of that item.  The detail view has navigate buttons which traverse
through the list displaying details for the currently selected item.
This is working as expected.

Users need to be able to add, edit and delete items.  In the main
activity I have an 'Add Item' menu item which allows the user to add
an item.  The detail view has an 'Add Item' button.

I thought I would be able to reuse the code for both cases by opening
a dialog in a helper class which accepts a new item and updates the
list view (and also the detail view if that was where it was called
from).  This is raising an Exception 'The content of the adapter has
changed but ListView did not receive a notification'.

Having googled this I am told that I cannot update the UI thread in a
sub-thread.  Does this mean that I have to replicate the add item code
in each activity? Or am I going about this in the wrong way and I
should be doing something else.

 Unfortunately I only had Java programming for two semesters during my
undergrad which is now more than 2 years ago...I mean it's probably still
easier for me to get back into it than for someone who has to start entirely
from scratch, plus I got XML experience, so at least I don't have to learn
that ;)
The app I am developing (more of a prototype atm) is for my Master
Dissertation and as I am right now focusing more on User Experience and
Interaction rather than development the app won't be fully functional, but
after my dissertation I will definitely continue  and finish it because the
project itself is quite interesting and fun. And I wouldn't like it only to
be halfway finished...

Re: [android-beginners] The content of the adapter has changed but ListView did not receive a notification

[Justin Anderson]

Use startActivityForResult instead of startActivity.  Then when you get back
to the listView you can add the item and update there.  There are some very
specific things you need to do to get startActivityForResult to work
properly and return the stuff you want to return to the main activity, so
you may want to search StackOverflow and this group for
startActivityForResult...

Hope that helps,
Justin

[android-beginners] Build.BOOTLOADER / Build.RADIO

[Doward]

According to the SDK we should be able to read the bootloader and
radio versions, but Eclipse is freaking out about it.

I can read any other Build. fine.

Any idea?

[android-beginners] Big Issue with running and testing app on phone while still being connected to PC

[Victoria Busse]

Hi there,

I have a huge problem testing my app on my HTC Wildfire. It was working fine
until recently, but now I always get a force close error when I run or debug
a new version of the app.

When I try to run the app on the emulator it still works, when I disconnect
the phone from the PC, the app also runs on the phone (including all
changes)... I was working on a xml file when this happened. If someone could
help me out here, that would be great...because this is really weird and I
really don't know what I should do now...

Thanks in advance...

This is the logcat output I get from the phone:

Just N1? Or does it not work on other phones as well? Does it work on the
emulator?

I would try to rebuild it and try again.

You can zip-view the apk archive but I cannot find a way to do

//Add the ImageView to the layout and set the layout as the

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Loading images in android

[Kostya Vasilyev]

The code below replaces the activity's content view (the root of view 
hierarchy) with a new LinearLayout.


If you want to keep your existing layout around, do this:

1 - declare a LinearLayout placeholder in your layout xml file, give it 
an ID.


2 - instead of creating a new LinearLayout, get it by calling findViewById.

3 - don't call setContentView

You could use one image view and several different images with varying
number of flowers.

Or create the required number of image views from code, all using the same
image.

Or declare four image views in your layout and manage their visibility from
code.
