[android-beginners] Android 2.0 - Dim screen programmatically
I am wanting to dim the screen of a device from a widget. Basically the same way the Power Manager widget for Android 2.0 does. I have tried this... Settings.System.putInt(context.getContentResolver(), Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS, someIntValue); I have this that works from an application window WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes(); lp.screenBrightness = (float) (someIntValue/ 255.0); getWindow().setAttributes(lp); But this doesn't work from the widget. Any idea on how to dim the screen from a widget? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] Changing Widget Layout Programmatically
Let's say that I have two layouts for a widget: Layout1 and Layout2. The default for the widget is Layout1, but I allow the user to choose which layout they want the widget to be. So if the user changes to Layout2, how do I programmatically change the layout to Layout2? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] AlertDialog from AppWidget
Is it possible use the AlertDialog from an AppWidget? I have code that works from an Activity, but when I copy that code to work when a widget is clicked, I get an error that it has stopped unexpectedly.

[android-beginners] Re: R cannot be resolved
If you are using Eclipse as your IDE, put the cursor on the R and hit Ctrl + Shift + O (the letter O). That will automatically add the needed import statement.

Is it possible to create a service that starts when the camera software starts?
