[android-beginners] Re: ADB problem
I use Windows 7 and eclipse and haven't had a problem with development gand testing with the emulator. However, I did try to hook up my phone to try to test on it and haven't found the correct drivers. That part workes great on my husband's XP machine :( Hope it helps -Kitzy On Jan 29, 7:13 pm, Rc3375 wrote: > Is there anyone who has had any problems using WIN7 and Eclipse? > Everytime Eclipse starts this error always comes up: "UNABLE TO PARSE > ADB VERSION".

[android-beginners] Re: where to start with android
The best place to start would be with the Hello Andoid tutorials on the Android website. They give you small projects to code on as well as how to setup your environment. After that, you may want to look at the thread on great Android books and choose one to read.

Are your GridView and Spinner element all withiin the same element, such as a LinearLayout? If so, try posting your layout file here. -Kitzy On Jan 27, 4:45 am, CoRex wrote: > Hi all. > > I am new to android-development so please be patient with me. :) > > I am trying to understand the views and the layout-files.

[android-beginners] Re: LogCat window seems to stop working
I have also noticed that hitting the clear log. Button in Eclipce will wipe the log and not reconnect it. Restarting Eclipse will reconnect the log. You can try using the command line to show the log. -Kitzy On Jan 28, 11:20 pm, Kevin Duffey wrote: > Hey all, > > Has anyone noticed that their LogCat window seems to stop working after an > app force closes.. or maybe for some other reason?

[android-beginners] Re: Notification helf
If you could be more persice about what you want to do, that would
help pinpoint a better solution.
You can try doing a toast...
Toast.makeToast("notification string", Toast.SHORT).show();
My syntax might be off, but look up Toast
Or are you wanting something in the notification bar at the top of the
screen?
Happy Coding

[android-beginners] Re: Unable to configure emulator network
I'm sorry I don't have the exact link, but google searching web connection proxy emulator will retun mant suggestions. One I did see however, said to go into the setting on the emulator and change the internet connection settings to those of your proxy.

[android-beginners] Re: root == jailbreak ?
Have you set your phone to debug mode? This is the first step to test an app on your phone. You may also need to set the permission to run non-market software on your phone, also under settings.

[android-beginners] Re: I still don't get XML's...!?
You may need to start the ViewAnimator in the java. On both of your
xml elements add an id attribute (@+id/id_name) then in your java
class call findViewById(R.main.id_name).
Hope that helps,

[android-beginners] Re: how can I launch my own activity from Home screen?
Are you trying to run it through the Emulator? Or did you get it to work on the emulator and now you are trying to get it to work on your phone?

[android-beginners] Re: Eclipse Debugger
To get the debugger to work in Eclipse requires that the emulator is up and running. If it isn't up and running, eclipse will attempt to start it. The startup prosses on my machine can take upto 5 mins. However, the debugger will not attach until the program starts running in the emulator. If however, you are wanting to step-through the android specific code, and not you own code, I haven't worked with it enough to answer that, yet.
