Sorry guys for the newbie question.
i have searched google and downloaded some examples of using WebView
but i don't think that is what i want because webview still uses the Search Bar..
What i want to do is:
:
1. i have a mobile site made up already to fit most android devices.
2. I want to wrap it i guess and create an APK..
what would be the best approach?
This isn't goign to be commercial, just an apk that i will share with some friends.
- I thought i could simply wrap it, but i am a bit lost.
maybe i am lookign for the wrong thing.. on google
I've never seen a web view that uses a search bar..
you should be able to do something like
Code:
WebView wb = new WebView(this);
wb.loadUrl("http://www.yourpage.com");
setContentView(wb);
and don't forget to set the right permissions.
It might help if you told what the webpage is that you're trying to show.
I have a website I'd like to this with.
http://www.rottweilertoday.net
I'd like to have a downloadable app that does nothing but take the user to the url.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated as always.
Are you still looking for this? If so send me an IM, I'm currently creating exact that!
to convert webpage as apk use appgeyser
If you want fullscreen app just use this on your Activity with webview:
Code:
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

Can someone write a small app to view .icon and .png files? Or does anyone know of one? I am sure I am not the only one with too many icons. But I cant remember what they all look like.
Thanks IA
use the search engine on this site to search "picture viewer". There is 1 or 2 that will view most of them. Fyi, They don't take kindly around here to new threads by jr members. it typically means that member didn't do enough research first. Most will tell you this is a reasearch and development site primarily. Not a help me with everything site. Just thought you should no going forward.
Hi guys. This should be easy for someone with experience so hopefully this will come in handy for a lot of 'new to windows mobile' types like myself.
Ok so the issue - start up Internet Explorer. Go to say... ebay.co.uk and check your accoutnt for example. Then the fun begins. I want to ask a seller a question. In classic view this takes a while to load (ebay mobile won't even allow you to do this function by the way!). The problem is this. Buttons are missing on the screen. Certain ares of the selctions are not showing. Bottom line is i can't click on ASK QUESTION to continue. Guessing something is needed like java or adobe flash but i'm not going to start adding things at random and by guesswork.
So can someone advise what is needed please, if anything? Maybe a setting i have is incorrect?
Sorry for the semi-vague details as far as the technical side goes. If you need a bit more clairty then please just ask and i'll try to better my comments.
Many thanks if you can help, TSS
160 views and no replies? someone spare a few secs please? i've tried adding a java cab (javafx) but no use so now i'm seriously stuck.
hope someone breaks the silence
Try using a better browser, e.g. Opera Mini. The built in IE has many limitations.
I experience previously with internet banking where IE fails to send Login id and passwords but Opera Mini works.
I am interested in creating and android based app where short posts like twitter can be shared with a group of people who has that app. So for example if 10 people have this app and one of them decided to create a post and share it then all the other 9 people should be able to see it in there feed. I am new to app development and was hoping I can get some kind of guidance from here as to where to start. I am not sure what kind of platform or technology is used in facebook and twitter for this specific purpose but I would like a similar setup. I really appreciate any help or guidance to help me get started and thanks in advance.
Google Cloud Messaging might be helpful in that case: http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/index.html
I'd, however, suggest to create some easier apps first, just for learning. Keep in mind, a twitter clone is a big and difficult project.
Smaller project
I would like to start from a smaller project but not sure about this area at all. I was thinking to just create a small app first where I create a post and it appears on the other end. Any ideas as how to go about it? thank you for your help.

I don't know how to do that as I've never really been interested in networking. I'd suggest to do something without networking as your first application to get used to Android's UI elements and to Android code in general.
As soon as you understood that you can do as much networking as you want but I would start with something that is easier. (A calculator is a typical beginner project. )

i ll give the example of Facebook
there
newsfeeds run on Hadoop
messages are on nosql not sure about this
all the searches you perform on the new graph interface (exculding those on messages) are through FQL
its a language of their own Facebook Query Language
Python is the backbone of it all, chief scripting language on thier server
of course the webinterface you see is php and javascript
........ this much only i know
but there are a few more
as u can see there's more to it than it seems to be so starting with such a thing won't be a wise decision !
"no hill too high to climb" - proceed this project if you really want to !

Like the title says how can I put a video into apk and let it play after someone opened the app
No one helps me ? I thought this is a forum
It is a forum. What you are asking for though isn't java help, its smali help so you're asking in the wrong forum. I would recommend doing some serious research into the decompilation process of apks. Additionally to me this looks like you are trying to make a spam version of a normal app (won't ever work btw because of the apk signing process) so its not really any wonder why no one has offered any help.

I dont want to make a spam version its for private use
I saw modded apks which have toast frame messages and even a splash screen so I tought it would be possible to add a video too

It is, its just a lot of work and I doubt anyone in this forum would be bothered enough to do it in smali, besides the developers that actually know smali properly enough to do this are very few and far between.

Can you move the thread to proper forum ?
And btw maybe its possible to just make a splash screen but use an animated gif that would be awsome

Hey,
my first idea to this Problem would be old plain manual parsing. So you would have to reverse engineer the structure of the requests the website needs. Then you can submit 6our values and must be able to get the values out of the http Response.
Greetings from Germany
P.S. Not many people look in this forum for help. So maybe you get not much help here. Sorry.
P.P.S. I never worked with Selenium, so I'm unsure if you can use it directly in Android Apps
