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

[android-developers] Re: Using html in WebView to build UI
Ok, thanks. I planned on changing the UI look and feel a little anyway. I just hope it's fast enough! Thanks Vance On Nov 22, 10:32 am, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: 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
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?
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?

[android-developers] Re: Developemtn on LG Ally?
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!! On Aug 30, 1:19 pm, Kostya Vasilyev kmans...@gmail.com wrote: 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). -- Kostya 30.08.2010 21:02, JavaMan пишет: Hey everyone, I want to get a Android phone for development.

[android-developers] Re: statelistdrawable in xml
I've got the same stupid problem!! How is this possible in Eclipse? I'm using Eclipse Galileo.

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.
