[android-developers] Using html in WebView to build UI

2010-11-22 Thread JavaMan
Hi all,
I've been building my app using the standard xml and Java Android
layout libraries. I don't like the set up very much; and I would
prefer to build the ui in html. I've been testing the speed of the
WebView; and it seems that it is quite fast at rendering. Does anyone
know if Google has ever said anything on the subject of building the
ui in html and rendering it in a WebView? I know it's perfectly legal
to render the UI in the WebView; but am I going to run into some
problem in the future?
Thanks,
Vance

Ok, thanks. I planned on changing the UI look and feel a little
anyway.
I just hope it's fast enough!
Thanks

 Considering that PhoneGap, Rhodes, Titanium Mobile, and other
 frameworks are all based on using WebView for rendering UIs, you are
 in good company.

 Bear in mind that *users* may or may not agree with your decision,
 since your UI will tend to look and feel different than a native UI.

[android-developers] Android hands after taking picture with intent MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE

2010-10-04 Thread JavaMan
Hi,
I am trying to take a picture using the phone's built-in camera
utility. I am passing the intent filter
MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE, and the camera app starts up, but
once I take a picture and press ok, nothing happens. Nothing appears
in the DDMS either. Here is my code to launch the camera:

 Intent cam = new 
Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
 cam.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
 
NoteViewer.this.startActivityForResult(cam,
NoteViewer.this.TAKE_PICTURE);

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong here?

[android-developers] Developemtn on LG Ally?

2010-08-30 Thread JavaMan
Hey everyone, I want to get a Android phone for development.
Unfortunately, the ADP2 is way out of my price range. Therefore, I'm
looking at phones on ebay. I do not want service, so I don't care if
it's unlocked or not. I was looking at an LG Ally on ebay. It is a
Verizon version of the phone. Can I use this phone for testing and
development?
Thanks,
Vance

2010-08-30 Thread JavaMan
Hey thanks for the info,
I thought the Droid would be way too expensive, but actually, the
regular Droid looks cheaper than the Ally.
Thanks man!!

 I think you might be better off getting a Motorola Droid. It's only a
 little more expensive on eBay than the LG, but runs pretty much stock
 Android with fewer manufacturer-specific customizations. This means that
 whatever compatibility testing you do is going to be more meaningful
 with the Droid.

 Also, a Droid update to Froyo (Android 2.2) is already rolling out
 (waiting for my Milestone to be updated to 2.2 as well).

[android-developers] Re: statelistdrawable in xml

I've got the same stupid problem!! How is this possible in Eclipse?
I'm using Eclipse Galileo.

 Thanks for the reply Kumar, but what I am asking is how do you get
 eclipse to generate this xml file for you.  It initially complains and
 doesn't recognize the selector tag when you just make a regular xml
 file and stick it in the drawable folder.

eclipse won't let me make an android xml file in the drawable folder,
it forces me to pic a resource other than drawable.
