Warm Greets Gents, Well I am writing on android app as a project in mobile computing. I am working with eclipse pulsar and I have downloaded several sdk platforms namely 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, etc. The only program I have successfully run is the Hello world program.
All the code samples in the android sdk of all the platforms seem not to be working. I always run configurations with a complimentary avd. I also take care to specify the <uses min sdk> just below the </ application> element. But all the sample codes in the sdk I try to test seem not to be working..even after the avd has uploaded and installed the service and activity file meant for execution. For instance if I load Contact Manager from existing sample with sdk 2.1, on running the compiled app, after I type add_contact into the avd, it reads error.The same goes for accellometer, and other samples. Please can any 1 tell me precisely what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks in advance. Here's my src: package com.example.helloandroid; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; public class Hello_Android extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); } } here's my main.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > <TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/textview" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/hello" /> </LinearLayout> Here's my string.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?> <resources> <string name="hello">Hello World, Hello_Android!
