App always on top - Java for Android App Development

Hi, guys, there is a way to develop an app that's always on top? I don't know if I make myself clear, imagine a media player controller that is always over all the other apps, or a button to make screenshot. These are just examples, I need to know if it is possible and a name for it, to know what to google.
I don't want it to be able to drag it around like facebook pop-up messenger notifier, just want it to be still on the top until I close the app.
I photoshopped some screenshots for you to understand.

Sorry for my lame english.

The phrase you need is Floating. I'm sure you can do something nice with This guide.

Thanks

Skins for JUST the phone application

just like the title says, i'm looking for a skin for just the phone application, specifically something dark grey/black and with bigger buttons (for dialing with my finger). Anyone know of anything?
First you might check out Anyone knows this dialer skin/program . My favorite is SmartDial + Eten dialskin
I realize that these probably aren't exactly what you requested but they're all I'm aware of. The Dr.Shultz work on the last pages is my personal favorite.
Hope I was of some help. (I SO enjoy the Dr.Shultz blue buttons!)
this is what I use

Help me bring this to life..

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Could someone help me bring this to life??? What I'm unsure about is how do i make the buttons act like buttons, as in changing to a different overlay when selected, so it looks like the button is pushed in. Creating the new 'overlay' image is no problem for me, the problem is the functionality, how do i actually make it do it. Too bad this isn't javacsript, where u could just a simple onMouseOver...
Any help appreciated.
If you had a PPC... rlToday would work... but for smartphones.... I dont know... maybe phonealarmSP ?
I'm pretty sure i've seen this done without any extra uneeded plugins, i believe using <format="selected" bgimage=""> but im not sure how to use it, so anyone care to expand?

Yes, there is a slight typo in the barcode, and go here to create barcodes: http://invx.com/code/?
funny i have been doing this for a while..
This may be a stupid question. but i figured i'd ask anyways. what can i do with these bar codes? i mean i know this dream can read them in apps like shop savy. and i know there's a way to enter contact info with them (but dont know how) but whats this all about?
i've had this one as my avatar for quite a while now, along with other people.
I've seen these types of barcode on contact cards etc., but so far, i've not found any use for them (except hiding offensive messeges )
they seem pretty unnecessary to me tbh.

alphabetical contact scrolling

You mean like this:

"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
?
Had to Google for a pic as I had no idea what you were on about
yea, dats wut i m asking....hahah....thks so much!
Good, the standard contacts app has it... see the grey thing on the right? Slide it up and down!
Another option is to use the gesture search app. Have a shortcut on your screen to it, activate it and type the name of the contact you're trying to find. I find it quicker to access contacts in many instances.

Thank you very much.
nice idea
i also would love to know if it is possible
i dont think its impossible i just think its hard ... but XDA has the best brain of android dev and users so i think its a matter of time since you just gave the idea
good luck and keep me posted
For me it also would work with the chromecast? Does anybody has an idea?
Or is willing to take nthis as a job offer?
Please contact me!
