Hello, we have a problem related to the manifest file and the property "android:minSdkVersion".
The issue is: If our platform is 2.0 and we use the property "android:minSdkVersion=3" (3 = sdk 1.5) the graphics get corrupted (In details, the application's resolution get reduced to a 2/3 part of the original size, this is, when the resolution should be 480x720, it becomes in a 320x480). This is happening on the Android emulator, and on the devices Droid/Milestone (Which are platforms 2.0). When we switch the property to "android:minSdkVersion=4" (4 = sdk 1.6) the problem gets solved, but when we want to put that version on platform 1.5, Android doesn't allow us to install it.
It would help us to know any conflict regarding graphics within the 2.0 sdk, or any known problem around the "android:minSdkVersion" in the manifest.
Thanks!

> android:paddingLeft="2px"

Seems like I'm having some problems after updating my android sdk tools and platform-tools using the sdk manager. The problem is that, after updating, I found that the avd or sdk options in the windows dropdown menu in eclipse are gone! And, I can't find any option to create an android project from file-new projects any more.
I tried removing the ADT from eclipse and the software site "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" from "available software sites" and then reinstalled the ADT from "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" using help-install new software. The installation was successful, but I still don't have any option for shortcuts to the SDK manager or the AVD in eclipse, and neither can I create a new android project.
By the way, the android perspectives are not gone, they are still here. Also, I can manually open the avd and sdk manager from the directory where I have installed them.
Can anyone please show me a workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey there,
I've heard about web scraping software that can take data from a webpage. i'm building an android app and I want to take information from this site www.menupages.ie
All I need is the names of the restaurants, and typing them in myself would be very tedious.
Can someone tell me how i'd go about doing this in eclipse, what methods i need etc.
I dont know anything about it.
Thanks alot.
I'm up and running in Eclipse, have worked through several tutorials and would like to start developing my first marketable app. Is there anyplace I can find a comprehensive list or catalog of what's available on the Android marketplace? I'd hate to waste a lot of development time building an app that has twelve free versions already available.

Title says it all. My app code is starting to get unmanageable and I want to start source control, primarily because I need to branch my code.
What are some good systems that you have used in the past and what would you recommend to me.
Requirements:
Must be free
Must integrate with eclipse
Must work well with android development plugin
How can I integrate services like Google or Microsoft and use information from the user like Google Calendar information. For example, how would I sync the Microsoft Outlook notes with an app on Android?
I want to store locations in my Android phone and be able for the application to tell me if I am inside these points&radius.
What is the best way to store many point&radius locations and efficiently query for them?

Is there a simple way to tell the default media player to change track back or forward?
I want the ability to send commands to the system media player (Music) to change track back and forward from within my app.
Is there a simple way? Code examples or descriptive explanation please, I have not developed for Android before.
I have an android phone and am thinking of a project in which I will need to modify the operating system and reinstall it to the phone. Is this possible to do so? Can i be sure my phone is not gonna give up on me?

I am looking for a way to connect to Android devices via Bluetooth without user intervention(assuming at least on device is set to "Discoverable"). Since 2.0, it seems the devices prompt for a random pin to be entered when connecting to each other for the first time. I've tried some Bluetooth projects, but none seem to work as the underlying Bluetooth Adapter code always kicks in.
Is there any way around this? Thanks.
I know you can change buttons background by creating a simple XML file, like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
android:state_window_focused="false"
android:state_enabled="true"
android:drawable="@drawable/button_normal"
/>
<!-- ... -->
</selection>
I was wondering if it is possible to use a similar approach to change the style attribute of an element using the same (or similar) technique.
Or, if that is not possible, how can the style attribute be changed during runtime (there is no such thing as button.setStyle(R.style.button)).
Currently I want to develop one Activity to allow the user to see the screens/activites of all running tasks , then the user can select one of them to switch it to foreground. As I known, HTC Sence seems already to have this implementation for Home screen, to display the thumbnail of all Home panels in one screen. Does anybody know how to access screen stack in Android? Thanks.
In my android app I have a Tabhost with a ListView as one of the tabs. By clicking on an item in the ListView (an address) I start an Intent to Google Maps for directions and the choice dialog pops up for google maps, web browser etc. Problem is if I press the hard back button then the launch dialog goes away but also the ListView is cleared. Any idea why?
Does anyone know, if vendors provide or if there is a site where one could download AVD profiles for existing android devices on the market so you can run your apps in the emulator and basically see how they will run on said devices?
I know it's pretty easy to create a new device but it'd be great if one could just download the config file for each device and run it.
Hello,
I am currently developing an free application (TaskOS ) that allow users to have multitasking and switch easily between applications on their mobile ( like alt+tab in Windows )
That work pretty well and user can launch my application by a long press on the "search" button" by adding this line in the manifest:
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH_LONG_PRESS" />
I also succeed to allow to the users to Use the camera button ( they can of course disable that in application settings) and the way to do that is slighlty different:
<receiver android:name=".CameraPressed">
<intent-filter android:priority="10000">
<action android:name="android.intent.action.CAMERA_BUTTON"/>
</intent-filter>
I am now wondering if there are other ways to launch easily my task switcher?
( long press on Home key, long press on trackball, or any other idea.)
Reading the Google documentation does not help me a lot.
Any other idea/suggestion would be warmly welcome.

How do I add a View dynamically in an android widget?
I realize that the RemoteViews works as a container of updates, but the RemoteViews.addView is only available on API level 7 (and I want my widget to work on HTC Hero phones, which has API level 3).
