[Must see guide] Use activity as Dialog Window or Box - Java for Android App Development

Have u ever thought to use the activities as a dialog box or window...
if u ever thought so then it would have been difficult for u as u might be thinking how to resize the activity window...
but its possible...
Using activities as a dialog boxes will have following benefits:-
* i have personally faced difficulties using list views in dialog boxes... but this method is super easyt..
* u can theme each dialog boxes separately in the same app...regardless of what themes u have defined in resources..
* u can add custom library views to the dialog boxes...this thing is not possible in traditional dialog boxes that android offers...
* and much things can be implemented depending upon how developer thinks...
JUST SEE HOW I HAVE IMPLEMENTED THIS IN MY OPEN SOURCED APP AT THIS THREAD...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2547427
NOTE:- THIS GUIDE IS FOR ANDROID 4.0+
In this tutorial i will be adding "title page indicator to an activity" and use that activity as a dialog box.....
STEP 1:
Create an empty project and in .java file paste the following codes..
Code:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter;
import android.support.v4.app.NavUtils;
import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager;
import android.view.Gravity;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
/**
* The {@link android.support.v4.view.PagerAdapter} that will provide
* fragments for each of the sections. We use a
* {@link android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter} derivative, which
* will keep every loaded fragment in memory. If this becomes too memory
* intensive, it may be best to switch to a
* {@link android.support.v4.app.FragmentStatePagerAdapter}.
*/
SectionsPagerAdapter mSectionsPagerAdapter;
/**
* The {@link ViewPager} that will host the section contents.
*/
ViewPager mViewPager;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Create the adapter that will return a fragment for each of the three
// primary sections of the app.
mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(
getSupportFragmentManager());
// Set up the ViewPager with the sections adapter.
mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
mViewPager.setAdapter(mSectionsPagerAdapter);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
return true;
}
/**
* A {@link FragmentPagerAdapter} that returns a fragment corresponding to
* one of the sections/tabs/pages.
*/
public class SectionsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public SectionsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
// getItem is called to instantiate the fragment for the given page.
// Return a DummySectionFragment (defined as a static inner class
// below) with the page number as its lone argument.
Fragment fragment = new DummySectionFragment();
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putInt(DummySectionFragment.ARG_SECTION_NUMBER, position + 1);
fragment.setArguments(args);
return fragment;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
// Show 3 total pages.
return 3;
}
@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0:
return getString(R.string.title_section1).toUpperCase();
case 1:
return getString(R.string.title_section2).toUpperCase();
case 2:
return getString(R.string.title_section3).toUpperCase();
}
return null;
}
}
/**
* A dummy fragment representing a section of the app, but that simply
* displays dummy text.
*/
public static class DummySectionFragment extends Fragment {
/**
* The fragment argument representing the section number for this
* fragment.
*/
public static final String ARG_SECTION_NUMBER = "section_number";
public DummySectionFragment() {
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Create a new TextView and set its text to the fragment's section
// number argument value.
TextView textView = new TextView(getActivity());
textView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
textView.setText(Integer.toString(getArguments().getInt(
ARG_SECTION_NUMBER)));
return textView;
}
}
}
STEP 2:
Now download the "Title Page Indicator Library" and include it in your project
http://viewpagerindicator.com/
if u get any error then delete "android-support-v4.jar" from the sample project that u have created for this guide..
STEP 3:
Now open the only layout file.. and paste the following...
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
>
<com.viewpagerindicator.TitlePageIndicator
android:id="@+id/indicator"
android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"
app:footerLineHeight="2dp"
app:footerIndicatorHeight="4dp"
app:footerIndicatorStyle="underline"
app:selectedBold="true"
android:padding="10.0dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/pager"
android:background="#80000000"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0.0dip"
android:layout_weight="1.0" >
</android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>
</LinearLayout>
STEP 4:
Verify the minimum sdk requirement is 14 or above...
STEP 5:
Now go to .java file
i). Create a variable of type "TitlePageIndicator" and it should look like
Code:
TitlePageIndicator indicator;
ii).Get id for indicator ...
Code:
indicator = (TitlePageIndicator)findViewById(R.id.indicator);
iii).Add view to indicator
Code:
indicator.setViewPager(mViewPager);
iv).Till now we have created the simple activity including title page indicator ..now comes trickiest part..
go to line below the setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Type the following codes...
Code:
WindowManager.LayoutParams params = this.getWindow().getAttributes();
params.width = 400;// setting the width of the dialog box
params.height = 500;// setting the height of the dialog box...
//params.(......) much more explorations can be done...
STEP 6: (OPTIONAL)
If u want to do theaming and all to the dialog box read my thread about adding different transparency level to activity that can be applied to this dialog boxes also..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46964005#post46964005
NOW DONE AND FINALLY COMPILE IT AND RUN IT...
For better understanding i m attaching the same sample project...
i hope it helped u and dont forget u see my app(open source app) that uses dialog boxes created using this method...

[Q] Beginning Programmer, need help with personal app

I'm creating an app to keep track of all the messier objects in the sky. I have made a list view in the main activity that holds all the objects, when clicked it should open my other activity and display the objects info.
The program now goes to my second activity no matter what item i choose but doesn't change any of the TextView text without foreclosing.
also how can I recognize what object was clicked and change the information displayed for each object
The main Activity Java looks like this:
Code:
package com.kabluey.messier;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MessierCatalog extends ListActivity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Set string array
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.main, objects));
ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
{
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id)
{
// When clicked, change text in object info to clicked object name
TextView objText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtObjName);
objText.setText(((TextView) view).getText());
Intent i = new Intent(MessierCatalog.this,Objectinfo.class);
startActivity(i);
}
});
}
static final String[] objects = new String[]
{
"m1", "m2","m3","m4","m5", "m6","m7","m8","m9","m10","m11","m12","m13","m14"
,"m15","m16","m17","m18","m19","m19","m20","m21","m22","m23","m24","m25","m26","m27","m28","m29","m30","m31","m32","m33"
,"m34","m35","m36","m37","m38","m39","m40","m41","m42","m43","m44","m45","m46","m47","m48","m49","m50","m51","m52","m53"
,"m54","m55","m56","m57","m58","m59","m60","m61","m62","m63","m64","m65","m66","m67","m68","m69","m70","m71","m72","m73"
,"m74","m75","m76","m77","m78","m79","m80","m81","m82","m83","m84","m85","m86","m87","m88","m89","m90","m91","m92","m93"
,"m94","m95","m96","m97","m98","m99","m100","m101","m102","m103","m104","m105","m106","m107","m108","m109","m110"
};
}
The second activity has no code in it now and is just an xml layout:
Code:
<?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"
>
<ImageView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:src="@drawable/crab"
/>
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="@+id/tableLayout1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:stretchColumns="1">
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:text="Name of Object:"
android:padding="3dip"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/txtObjName"
android:text="Object name here"
android:padding="3dip"
android:paddingLeft="5dip" />
android:id="@+id/tableRow1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:text="Apparent Magnitude:"
android:padding="3dip"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/txtMagnitude"
android:paddingLeft="5dip"
android:text="9.0"/>
android:id="@+id/tableRow1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I think it may have to do with your casting of "view" to type "TextView" in you onItemClick override. I don't think the "View" passed to this override is a "TextView" is it? I would think it is the ListView to which you added the OnItemClickListener event handler.
Have some suggestion / tips:
1. This is more organized, also initializes first the Strings
Code:
package com.kabluey.messier;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MessierCatalog extends ListActivity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private static final String[] objects = {
"m1", "m2","m3","m4","m5", "m6","m7","m8","m9","m10","m11","m12","m13","m14"
,"m15","m16","m17","m18","m19","m19","m20","m21","m22","m23","m24","m25","m26","m27","m28","m29","m30","m31","m32","m33"
,"m34","m35","m36","m37","m38","m39","m40","m41","m42","m43","m44","m45","m46","m47","m48","m49","m50","m51","m52","m53"
,"m54","m55","m56","m57","m58","m59","m60","m61","m62","m63","m64","m65","m66","m67","m68","m69","m70","m71","m72","m73"
,"m74","m75","m76","m77","m78","m79","m80","m81","m82","m83","m84","m85","m86","m87","m88","m89","m90","m91","m92","m93"
,"m94","m95","m96","m97","m98","m99","m100","m101","m102","m103","m104","m105","m106","m107","m108","m109","m110"
};
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Set string array
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.main, objects));
ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
{
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id)
{
// When clicked, change text in object info to clicked object name
TextView objText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtObjName);
objText.setText(((TextView) view).getText());
//Log here!, but im almost sure this is bad
Intent i = new Intent(MessierCatalog.this,Objectinfo.class);
startActivity(i);
}
});
}
2. Could you make a Log.i("APP", ((TextView) view).getText()) and upload output?. That appears like you're setting to your textview, the same text you got from it ( that's actually null / empty )
3. If output it's empty or not output, then this is the answer
Code:
package com.kabluey.messier;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MessierCatalog extends ListActivity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private static final String[] objects = {
"m1", "m2","m3","m4","m5", "m6","m7","m8","m9","m10","m11","m12","m13","m14"
,"m15","m16","m17","m18","m19","m19","m20","m21","m22","m23","m24","m25","m26","m27","m28","m29","m30","m31","m32","m33"
,"m34","m35","m36","m37","m38","m39","m40","m41","m42","m43","m44","m45","m46","m47","m48","m49","m50","m51","m52","m53"
,"m54","m55","m56","m57","m58","m59","m60","m61","m62","m63","m64","m65","m66","m67","m68","m69","m70","m71","m72","m73"
,"m74","m75","m76","m77","m78","m79","m80","m81","m82","m83","m84","m85","m86","m87","m88","m89","m90","m91","m92","m93"
,"m94","m95","m96","m97","m98","m99","m100","m101","m102","m103","m104","m105","m106","m107","m108","m109","m110"
};
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Set string array
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.main, objects));
ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
{
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id)
{
// When clicked, change text in object info to clicked object name
TextView objText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtObjName);
objText.setText(objects[position]);
Intent i = new Intent(MessierCatalog.this,Objectinfo.class);
startActivity(i);
}
});
}
Also for this cases it's not really needed TableRow, With a Relative layout it's enough, but I don't think that's a prob.
If you have some problem, feel free to contact me through PM.
Good luck, and cheers from colombia.
D4.
solved!
I searched the nets and found a solution, it seems to be working quite well.
thanks for all the help
My click listener now stores the value so both activities can access it
Code:
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,int position,long id)
{
Intent i = new Intent(MessierCatalog.this,Objectinfo.class);
//Get ListViews text and store it to "myText"
i.putExtra("myText", (((TextView) view).getText()));
startActivity(i);
}
The ObjectInfo activity now has code to store the ListViews text in String Variable and then set the text..
Code:
public class Objectinfo extends Activity
{
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.objectinfo);
TextView objName = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtObjName);
//store ListViews Text to String
String str = getIntent().getStringExtra("myText");
//Set text to stored ListView string
objName.setText(str);
}
}

HTC Carousel Activity/Fragment (Swipeable tabs) - Sense 3.6 up to Sense 6 Samples
HTC Carousel with Tabs for Sense 3.6 up to Sense 4 (Using Activities)
Create classes and Carousel (HTC Sense Tabs)
Create simple activities
Create two classes Tab1.java; Tab2.java
Create two layout xml files - tab_1.xml; tab_2.xml;
Place any two different png icons for Tab1 and Tab2 reference
tab_1.xml
Code:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="This is Tab1" />
</RelativeLayout>
tab_2.xml
Code:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="This is Tab2" />
</RelativeLayout>
Tab1.java
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Tab1 extends Activity {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tab_1);
}
}
Tab2.java
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Tab2 extends Activity {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tab_2);
}
}
Create carousel (HTC Sense Tabs) and put tabs together
Create class: TabProvider.java; Remove everything inside class and place this code:
com.yourpackage.name - it is your name of package.
TabProvider.java
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import com.htc.content.CarouselProvider;
[user=1299008]@supp[/user]ressWarnings("deprecation")
public class TabProvider extends CarouselProvider {
final static String AUTHORITY =
"com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider";
public TabProvider() {
super();
setupCarousel(AUTHORITY);
}
}
Open MainActivity, remove everything from class and paste this code:
MainActivity.java
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselActivity;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselHost;
public class MainActivity extends CarouselActivity {
final static String AUTHORITY =
"com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider";
public MainActivity() {
super(AUTHORITY);
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.setGId(1);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
final CarouselHost mPanelHost = getCarouselHost();
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab1", this, R.string.tab_1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab1")));
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab2", this, R.string.tab_2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab2")));
}
}
Configuring manifest
Dont forget, all classes have to be in Manifest.
Code:
<activity
android:name=".Tab1"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:configChanges="orientation"
android:label="Tab1" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.yourpackage.name.Tab1" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".Tab2"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:configChanges="orientation"
android:label="Tab2" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.yourpackage.name.Tab2" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Also for HTC SDK you have to state Provider: Create provider at the end of Manifest before </application> tag
Code:
<provider
android:name="com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider"
android:authorities="com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider" />
Create ActionBar in HTC Sense Style
For all tabs in your main activity you dont need to create actionbar for each of them, you need only one Actionbar for all Tabs.
That means all Activities which will be part of TabCarousel it will use the same action bar from MainActivity.
Make Changes in your mainactivity as follow:
MainActivity.java with ActionBar
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselActivity;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselHost;
[COLOR="Red"]import com.htc.widget.ActionBarExt;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarText;[/COLOR]
public class MainActivity extends CarouselActivity {
final static String AUTHORITY =
"com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider";
[COLOR="red"]public static ActionBarText mActionText;[/COLOR]
public MainActivity() {
super(AUTHORITY);
}
[COLOR="red"] private void SetupActionBar()
{
Object obj = new ActionBarExt(this, getActionBar());
((ActionBarExt)obj).setFullScreenEnabled(true);
((ActionBarExt)obj).enableHTCLandscape(false);
mActionText = new ActionBarText(this);
mActionText.setPrimaryText(R.string.app_name);
obj = ((ActionBarExt)obj).getCustomContainer();
((ActionBarContainer)obj).setRightDividerEnabled(true);
((ActionBarContainer)obj).addCenterView(mActionText);
}[/COLOR]
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.setGId(1);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
final CarouselHost mPanelHost = getCarouselHost();
[COLOR="red"]SetupActionBar();[/COLOR]
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab1", this, R.string.tab_1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab1")));
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab2", this, R.string.tab_2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab2")));
}
}
HTC Carousel with Tabs for Sense 4.1 up to Sense 5.5 (Using Fragments)
Create Carousel Fragment, Tabs, MainActivity
Create Tab Fragments
Now instead of Activities we will use Fragments, and it is difficult for some users. And I will try to explain how to build Carousel and not how to build Fragment Activity. But as example you can refer to my Open Source project myStore (which now converted to Fragments)
Create two classes Tab1Fragment and Tab2Fragment
Tab1Fragment.java
Code:
package your.package.name;
[COLOR="Lime"]#2[/COLOR] import android.app.Fragment;
[COLOR="lime"]#1[/COLOR] public class Tab1Fragment [B][COLOR="red"]extends Fragment[/COLOR][/B] {
Button button;
[COLOR="lime"]#3[/COLOR] public Tab1Fragment () {
}
[COLOR="lime"]#4[/COLOR] [user=439709]@override[/user]
public [B][COLOR="Red"]View onCreateView[/COLOR][/B](LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab1, container, false);
[COLOR="Lime"]#7[/COLOR] button = (Button) [B][COLOR="Red"]view.[/COLOR][/B]findViewById(R.id.button);
[COLOR="RoyalBlue"][I]//All your code that you need when application is first time created (see onCreate method example)[/I][/COLOR]
[COLOR="lime"]#5[/COLOR] [B][COLOR="red"]return view;[/COLOR][/B]
}
[COLOR="lime"]#6[/COLOR]
}
As you can see the Class structure is different from what you might get used.
Now you need to extend class as Fragment (#1) and import android.app.Fragment; (#2)
Then you need to have public method which represent the entire Class with the name of the Class (#3)
And Fragment uses onCreateView method instead of onCreate in Activity (#4)
And you also need return statement for the view (#5) which will be at the end after all your code inside onCreateView method
Outside onCreateView you will have all your methods for the purpose of application and those methods you will call from onCreateView method.
Example of (#7) is that how you need to use findViewById method. you need to add view. before the method. Other than tha is the same
Now create Tab2Fragment and use the same method but different layout resources.
Create Tab Provider
Code:
package your.package.name;
import com.htc.fragment.content.CarouselProvider;
public class TabProvider extends CarouselProvider {
public TabProvider(){
super();
setupCarousel(MainActivity.AUTHORITY);
}
}
Create CarouselFragment
Now to store tabs in your application we will use separate Carousel class where you will identify each tab, name, Class, icons , etc
For each tab create method for it for example
Code:
private void addTab1(CarouselHost host, String tag, int icon, int str) {
host.addTab(getActivity(), new CarouselTabSpec(tag,
str, icon, icon, icon, Tab1Fragment.class.getName()));
}
private void addAnotherTab(CarouselHost host, String tag, int icon, int str) {
host.addTab(getActivity(), new CarouselTabSpec(tag,
str, icon, icon, icon, AnotherTabFragment.class.getName()));
}
and in onActivityCreated method add your tab as in example
Code:
addAnotherTab(host, "AnotherTab", R.drawable.another_icon,
R.string.another_tab);
Carousel.java
Code:
package your.package.name;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselFragment;
import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselHost;
import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselTabSpec;
public class Carousel extends CarouselFragment {
public Carousel() {
super(MainActivity.AUTHORITY);
requestCarouselFeature(CarouselFragment.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
}
private void addTab1(CarouselHost host, String tag, int icon, int str) {
host.addTab(getActivity(), new CarouselTabSpec(tag,
str, icon, icon, icon, Tab1Fragment.class.getName()));
}
private void addTab2(CarouselHost host, String tag, int icon, int str) {
host.addTab(getActivity(), new CarouselTabSpec(tag,
str, icon, icon, icon, Tab2Fragment.class.getName()));
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
final CarouselHost host = getCarouselHost();
addTab1(host, "Tab1", R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.string.tab1);
addTab2(host, "Tab2", R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.string.tab2);
}
}
Create MainActivity
Now MainActivity will be simple Activity with reference to Carousel class.
Code:
package your.package.name;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
final static String AUTHORITY = "your.package.name.MainActivity";
private Carousel mCarousel = null;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY);
final int rootId = 1;
FrameLayout viewRoot = new FrameLayout(this);
viewRoot.setId(rootId);
setContentView(viewRoot);
mCarousel = new Carousel();
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.add(rootId, mCarousel);
ft.commit();
registerForContextMenu(viewRoot);
}
}
Configuration of Manifest
For Fragments you dont need anymore to add permission for them in Manifest (Only for Activities)
So basically with One mainactivity and two Tabs your manifest should look like
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="your.package.name"
android:versionCode="10"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="15"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
allowSkinChange="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="your.package.name.MainActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<provider
android:name="your.package.name.TabProvider"
android:authorities="your.package.name.MainActivity" />
</application>
</manifest>
Make sure your provider is exaclty as follow.​
HTC Carousel with Tabs for Sense 6 (Using Fragments)
Create CarouselFragment, MainActivity, Tabs
CarouselFragment:
Code:
package com.your.pkg;
[COLOR="red"]import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselFragment; <!-- Make sure the imports from com.htc.fragment.*-->
import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselHost;
import com.htc.fragment.widget.CarouselTabSpec;[/COLOR]
importcom.your.pkg.MainActivity;
import com.your.pkg.R;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Carousel extends [COLOR="Red"]CarouselFragment[/COLOR] {
public Carousel() {
super(MainActivity.AUTHORITY);
requestCarouselFeature(CarouselFragment.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
}
private void addTab(CarouselHost host, String tag, int icon, int str, String tag5) {
host.addTab(getActivity(), new CarouselTabSpec(tag,
str, tag5));
}
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
final CarouselHost host = getCarouselHost();
addTab(host, [COLOR="Blue"]"FirstTab"[/COLOR], R.drawable.ic_launcher,
R.string.[COLOR="Blue"]first[/COLOR], First.class.getName());
addTab(host, [COLOR="Blue"]"SecondTab"[/COLOR], R.drawable.ic_launcher,
R.string.[COLOR="Blue"]second[/COLOR], Second.class.getName());
[COLOR="Red"]<!-- Add as many addTab(); methods as you need Tabs. The addTab() is universal-->[/COLOR]
}
}
MainActivity
Code:
public class MainActivity extends MfMainActivity {
public final static String AUTHORITY = "mikrosmile.kontrol.MainActivity";
private Carousel mCarousel = null;
static Window window;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
final int rootId = 1;
FrameLayout viewRoot = new FrameLayout(this);
viewRoot.setId(rootId);
setContentView(viewRoot);
mCarousel = new Carousel();
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.add(rootId, mCarousel);
ft.commit();
registerForContextMenu(viewRoot);
getWindow().setFormat(1);
}
}

Code:
Any Activity or Fragment
HTC's Release to Refresh method (Swipe2Refresh)
The Release to Refresh is like this:
View attachment 2711413
It can be added to any View. I will show example how to add it to ListView
Code:
[COLOR="red"]import com.htc.widget.OnPullDownListener;[/COLOR]
public static ActionBarRefresh aRefresh;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle bundle) {
//Adding inside onCreate method of you listActivity
list.[COLOR="Red"]setOnPullDownListener(new PullDown());[/COLOR]
}
public class PullDown implements OnPullDownListener{
//just a class inside your listActivity
@Override
public void onGapChanged(int top, int bottom) {
if(top != 0){
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setRotationMax(top);
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setRotationProgress(bottom);
//actionbarext.getCustomContainer is your ActionBar container
}
}
@Override
public void onPullDownCancel() {
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setUpdatingState(0);
}
@Override
public void onPullDownRelease() {
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setUpdatingState(0);
//do whatever you need to update the list here, you can call a method or AsyncTask from here
}
@Override
public void onPullDownToBoundary() {
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setRotationProgress(actionbarext.getCustomContainer().getRotationMax());
}
}
Code:
On your method to update list add this to onPreExecute
aRefresh.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
aRefresh.setPrimaryText("Updating...");
actionbartext.setPrimaryVisibility(View.GONE);
actionbartext.setSecondaryVisibility(View.GONE);
When you finish your task to update list, inside onPostExecute add this
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().setUpdatingState(0);
Code:
Inside your method to SetupActionBar add this
aRefresh = new ActionBarRefresh(c);
aRefresh.setVisibility(View.GONE);
actionbarext.getCustomContainer().addCenterView(aRefresh);
​
Add HTC Sense 6 Theme support to your app
Inside your MainActivity add this method
Code:
public static int getHtcThemeID(Context context, int i)
{
return HtcWrapConfiguration.getHtcThemeId(context, i);
}
And in onCreate method add this
Code:
setTheme(getHtcThemeID(context, 0));
This method is returning current Choosen theme ID by Variable from 0 to 3.
So, when you open Personalization - Theme. You see 4 Themes. First 3 has different Color boxes at the top. The first 3 is the actual variable integer from 0 - 3.
So, if you want to get , let's say Red color from Theme 2. You have to Choose Theme 2 in the Theme Settings, and in the app use this:
Code:
setTheme(getHtcThemeID(context, 3));
Once you change Theme, it will also use The Orange color from Theme 1, and the Purple Color from Theme 3
​
Add SlidingMenu to your Sense application
To make the sliding menu in your application like Mail app or File manager app, follow this:
View attachment 2876504
Code:
public class MainActivity extends [COLOR="Red"]SlidingActivity [/COLOR]{
[COLOR="red"]private SlidingMenu mSlidingMenu;[/COLOR]
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
window = getWindow();
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
[COLOR="red"]setBehindContentView(R.layout.activity_behind);
initSlidingMenu();[/COLOR]
SetupActionBar(this);
}
private void initSlidingMenu()
{
mSlidingMenu = getSlidingMenu();
[COLOR="red"]mSlidingMenu.setBehindWidth(500);[/COLOR] [COLOR="Lime"]//any width as you want[/COLOR]
mSlidingMenu.setFadeDegree(0.5F);
mSlidingMenu.setFadeEnabled(true);
mSlidingMenu.setMode(0);
mSlidingMenu.setTouchModeAbove(0);
mSlidingMenu.setOnOpenedListener(new com.htc.widget.SlidingMenu.OnOpenedListener() {
public void onOpened()
{
initSlidingMenuContent();
}
});
}
private void initSlidingMenuContent(){
[COLOR="red"] mSlidingMenu.setShadowWidth(50);
mSlidingMenu.setShadowDrawable(ICservices.getShadowDrawable());[/COLOR][COLOR="Lime"]//any shadow drawable you want
//here is all your code that represent the behind layout. it can be listview or any other View you need[/COLOR]
}
[COLOR="SeaGreen"]//if you want to have a toggle at the actionbar, also add OnClickListener to ActionbarTextView and add IconView to Actionbar[/COLOR]
}
add this permission to Manifest:
[COLOR="red"]<uses-permission android:name="com.htc.permission.APP_DEFAULT" />[/COLOR]
Add 3 Dot menu to actionbar
For the Menu in actionbar you just implement simple menu method, but you dont need to use menu.xml for it.
Also you dont need to create string values for Menu, it will generate automatically for you, the icon, and the name.
This is method to create Menu in ActionBar. Add it in MainActivity before SetupActionBar() method
Code:
public void onCreateContextMenu (ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.add("ContextMenu");
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu (Menu menu) {
menu.add(1, 1, 1, R.string.settings);
return true;
}
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem menuitem)
{
boolean flag = true;
switch (menuitem.getItemId())
{
case 1:
startActivity(new Intent(this, Settings.class));
break;
}
return flag;
}
This is your new MainActivity with Menu
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselActivity;
import com.htc.widget.CarouselHost;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarExt;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarText;
[COLOR="Red"]import android.view.ContextMenu;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;[/COLOR]
public class MainActivity extends CarouselActivity {
final static String AUTHORITY =
"com.yourpackage.name.TabProvider";
public static ActionBarText mActionText;
public MainActivity() {
super(AUTHORITY);
}
[COLOR="red"]public void onCreateContextMenu (ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.add("ContextMenu");
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu (Menu menu) {
menu.add(1, 1, 1, R.string.settings);
return true;
}
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem menuitem)
{
boolean flag = true;
switch (menuitem.getItemId())
{
case 1:
startActivity(new Intent(this, Settings.class));
break;
}
return flag;
}[/COLOR]
private void SetupActionBar()
{
Object obj = new ActionBarExt(this, getActionBar());
((ActionBarExt)obj).setFullScreenEnabled(true);
((ActionBarExt)obj).enableHTCLandscape(false);
mActionText = new ActionBarText(this);
mActionText.setPrimaryText(R.string.app_name);
obj = ((ActionBarExt)obj).getCustomContainer();
((ActionBarContainer)obj).setRightDividerEnabled(true);
((ActionBarContainer)obj).addCenterView(mActionText);
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.setGId(1);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
final CarouselHost mPanelHost = getCarouselHost();
SetupActionBar();
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab1", this, R.string.tab_1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
R.drawable.ic_tab1,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab1")));
mPanelHost.addTab("Tab2", this, R.string.tab_2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
R.drawable.ic_tab2,
(new Intent("com.yourpackage.name.Tab2")));
}
}
HTC AlertDialog​
In order to have alertdialog you need to have OnClickListener and inside OnClickListener you paste alertDialog.
Code:
public void onItemClick(HtcAdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
[COLOR="red"]HtcAlertDialog.Builder[/COLOR] alertDialog = new [COLOR="red"]HtcAlertDialog.Builder[/COLOR]([B]YourActivity.this[/B]);
alertDialog.setTitle(R.string.title_txt);
alertDialog.setMessage(R.string.message_txt);
alertDialog.setIcon(R.drawable.icon);
alertDialog.setPositiveButton(R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,int which) {
//Do your actions here when user click Yes
}
});
alertDialog.setNegativeButton(R.string.no, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
//Do your action here when user click No.. or just cancel dialog using follow..
dialog.cancel();
}
});
alertDialog.show();
}
As you can see Dialog is not so difficult, but need to identify exaclty which Builder you are gonna use.
YourActivity.this - means the activity where you create the dialog
You can also see available options of what you can implement inside dialog.. like 3 buttons.
Start typing alertDialog. finish with the dot and in Eclipse there will be new pop-up window and you can add some more
Also dont forget alertDialog.show(); at the end, otherwise Dialog wont shows​
HTC ListView and HtcListActivity. ​
There are two ways of implementing Htc List view. You can use Simple Activity, Fragment or just easy use HtcListActivity extension.
For full htc style you need to use Main List layout, and Details layout + List adapter.
Example using Activity
Code:
public class AboutActivity extends Activity {
[COLOR="Red"]HtcListView lv1;[/COLOR]
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.about_activity);
ArrayList<AboutDetails> image_details = GetSearchResults();
[COLOR="red"]final HtcListView lv1 = (HtcListView) findViewById(R.id.about_list);[/COLOR]
[user=1299008]@supp[/user]ressWarnings("unused")
lv1.setAdapter(new AboutListBaseAdapter(this, image_details));
lv1.setOnItemClickListener(new HtcAdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
Vibrator vibrator = (Vibrator) getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onItemClick(HtcAdapterView<?> a, View v, int position, long id) {
vibrator.vibrate(50);
Object o = lv1.getItemAtPosition(position);
final AboutDetails obj_itemDetails = (AboutDetails)o;
}
});
}
private ArrayList<AboutDetails> GetSearchResults(){
ArrayList<AboutDetails> results = new ArrayList<AboutDetails>();
AboutDetails item_details = new AboutDetails();
item_details.setName(R.string.mikrosmile);
item_details.setItemDescription(R.string.mikrosmile_info);
item_details.setImageNumber(1);
results.add(item_details);
return results;
}
}
AboutDetails
Code:
public class AboutDetails {
public int getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(int name) {
this.name = name;
}
public int getItemDescription() {
return itemDescription;
}
public void setItemDescription(int itemDescription) {
this.itemDescription = itemDescription;
}
public int getImageNumber() {
return imageNumber;
}
public void setImageNumber(int imageNumber) {
this.imageNumber = imageNumber;
}
private int name ;
private int itemDescription;
private int imageNumber;
}
AboutListBaseAdapter
public class AboutListBaseAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private static ArrayList<AboutDetails> aboutDetailsrrayList;
private Integer[] imgid = {
R.drawable.mikrosmile,
};
private LayoutInflater l_Inflater;
public AboutListBaseAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<AboutDetails> results) {
aboutDetailsrrayList = results;
l_Inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
}
public int getCount() {
return aboutDetailsrrayList.size();
}
public Object getItem(int position) {
return aboutDetailsrrayList.get(position);
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = l_Inflater.inflate(R.layout.about_htc_details, null);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.txt_itemName = ([COLOR="red"]HtcListItem2LineText[/COLOR]) convertView.findViewById(R.id.list_item);
holder.itemImage = ([COLOR="red"]HtcListItemTileImage[/COLOR]) convertView.findViewById(R.id.list_item_img);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
holder.txt_itemName.setPrimaryText(aboutDetailsrrayList.get(position).getName());
holder.txt_itemName.setSecondaryTextSingleLine(false);
holder.txt_itemName.setSecondaryText(aboutDetailsrrayList.get(position).getItemDescription());
holder.itemImage.setTileImageResource(imgid[aboutDetailsrrayList.get(position).getImageNumber() - 1]);
return convertView;
}
static class ViewHolder {
[COLOR="red"]HtcListItem2LineText txt_itemName;
HtcListItemTileImage itemImage;[/COLOR]
}
}
Layout - about_activity
Code:
<?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"
android:background="@drawable/bg_white">
<[COLOR="red"]com.htc.widget.HtcListView[/COLOR]
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="@+id/about_list"
android:background="@drawable/common_app_bkg"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Layout - about_htc_details
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<[COLOR="red"]com.htc.widget.HtcListItemSeparator [/COLOR]
android:id="@+id/Lseparator"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
[COLOR="red"]<com.htc.widget.HtcListItem
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.htc.widget.HtcListItemTileImage
android:id="@+id/list_item_img" />
<com.htc.widget.HtcListItem2LineText
android:id="@+id/list_item" />
</com.htc.widget.HtcListItem>[/COLOR]
</LinearLayout>
HTC ListView Example by xcesco89
Add HTC Sense Skin support.
In AndroidManifest add this line inside <application tag and before first <activity tag where you have your MainActivity
Code:
<application
[COLOR="Red"]allowSkinChange="true"[/COLOR]
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.yourpackage.name.MainActivity"
There will be Error in Manifest, says "Attribute is missing the Android namespace prefix"
It is fine, to fix it go to - Project -> Clean; Choose your Application and click Ok​
Add reference library to use full HTC app experience
Sense 6
Download this package - View attachment addon-htc_opensense_apis-htc-19.zip
Place the extracted folder to <location of android SDK>\android\sdk\add-ons\
Choose HTC OpenSense SDK 19 when you start building your application. Profit
Sense 5 and below
Refer to this, thanks to Jonny
Make sure HTCExtension lib is appear in your Eclipse project​
Use HTCPreference Activity
Htc Preference is the same as normal Preference but you need to follow some rules when you want to have this.
First in your Preference activity (for example you already have one) change PreferenceActivity to HtcPreferenceActivity.
import com.htc.preference.*;
In prefs.xml (or any other xml file you have your preferences in) make sure everything is using this way
This is original android way.
<PreferenceScreen> </PreferenceScreen>
This is Htc way
<com.htc.preference.HtcPreferenceScreen> </com.htc.preference.HtcPreferenceScreen>
So basically to every single item in preferences you need to add com.htc.preference.Htc****
Here is prefs.xml example
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<[COLOR="Red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<[COLOR="red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]CheckBoxPreference
android:title="@string/load_icons"
android:summary="@string/load_icons_summary"
android:defaultValue="true"
android:key="show_dialog">
</[COLOR="red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]CheckBoxPreference>
<[COLOR="red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]SwitchPreference
android:title="@string/load_skins"
android:summary="@string/load_skins_summary"
android:switchTextOn="@string/on"
android:switchTextOff="@string/off"
android:defaultValue="true"
android:key="skins_on_start">
</[COLOR="red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]SwitchPreference>
</[COLOR="red"]com.htc.preference.Htc[/COLOR]PreferenceScreen>
This is how Pref activity should be
Code:
package com.yourpackage.name;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarContainer;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarExt;
import com.htc.widget.ActionBarText;
[COLOR="red"]import com.htc.preference.*;[/COLOR]
public class Settings extends [COLOR="red"]Htc[/COLOR]PreferenceActivity {
private ActionBarExt actionBarExt=null;
private ActionBarText actionBarText=null;
private ActionBarContainer actionBarContainer=null;
private void SetupActionBar() {
actionBarExt=new ActionBarExt(this,getActionBar());
actionBarExt.enableHTCLandscape(false);
actionBarContainer=actionBarExt.getCustomContainer();
actionBarText=new ActionBarText(this);
actionBarText.setPrimaryText(R.string.settings);
actionBarContainer.addCenterView(actionBarText);
actionBarContainer.setRightDividerEnabled(true);
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefs);
}
SetupActionBar();
}
}
If you cannot import com.htc.preference.*; (Eclipse will give you error) it means you dont have HtcExtension lib. Make sure you added it before doing this.

Great guide! HTC Dialog isn't hard, just the same as the normal dialog, but putting Htc before the dialog stuff, right?
Looking forward to the ListView guide!

yep dialog ist that hard.. but still need to clarify )
Subscribed ! :good:
Hai So, how could I change the tab's image? Like the one in the DarkSense screenshot?

This is not image actually, it is skin support..
I was planning to write about it later ))
OK in manifest after <application tag add this line
allowSkinChange="true"
You will have error. Go to Project and perform a Clean . try and report back

Weird.. Cannot edit ..
So this line should be in the same pack where you have android icon and theme info before the first activity tag

add an HtcListView it's quite simple!
this works exactly as the android ListView
a simple example:
(as base i've used TabPlus4Demo a sample project in OpenSense SDK samples )
main.xml
HTML:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<com.htc.widget.HtcListView
android:id="@+id/listView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
(Note that you need to use com.htc.widget.HtcListView instead of ListView )
the code:
Code:
public class SimpleTab extends Fragment {
public HtcListView lv;
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
if(getArguments() != null) {
int resId = getArguments().getInt("LAYOUT");
if(resId != 0)
return inflater.inflate(resId, null);
}
ViewGroup rootView = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(
R.layout.main, container, false);
[B]//Find the view[/B]
lv = (HtcListView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.listView1);

this is not part of OpenSense SDK.. they wont open it. You need to create own framework..
this is actually part of HtcPreferenceActivity which you cant create in Eclipse without proper libs..
Other than that you can create similar png.9 image and make it looks like )

i think you can create a custom row layout, create a new custom adapter and set the content with your new adapter

[Q] How to add function to toggle switches?

I am pretty new to coding and app development. After searching around this is an easy thing to do. But I'm so stupid I can figure it out.
So what I need is to add a hardware function to a toggle switch. If you know how to add function to it. What I need is to send all audio through the earpiece when the toggle switch is on. Can you please put the whole code I need to do this? Please help me out!

After you define your toggle switch in your xml, you can add a id and then you can
Code:
android:onClick="onSwitchClicked"
anywhere between the toggle block. This will say what to do when the toggle is clicked. Now put the below method in your class to control the toggle status:
Code:
public void onSwitchClicked(View view) {
switch(view.getId()){
case R.id.switch1:
if(switch1.isChecked()) {
// To do when 1st switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 1st switch is off
}
break;
case R.id.switch2:
if(switch2.isChecked()) {
//To do when 2nd switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 2nd switch is off
}
break;
}
}
You can extended to as many switches you want by providing different id's for the switch in xml and controlling that with case statements in the java.
And for controlling the audio, You can use audiomanager class
Code:
AudioManager am = (AudioManager) getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
am.setSpeakerphoneOn(true); //sets audio via speaker
am.setWiredHeadsetOn(true); //sets audio via headset
Problem!

I did what you said. Yet I encountered a problem. Please see the attached screenshot.
When I hover over the X it says "Attribute name "public" associated with an element type "RadioButton" must be followed by the ' = '
character."
Where do I put the "="
Thanks by the way. You helped me out a lot!
you are mixing java with XML. Honestly, I suggest you start on a few beginner tutorials.
Just tell me what to do. I can't go through the guide. I need this app done by August 14.

Bad Attitude to have. This isn't a "do my work for me" forum.
And like zalez was kind enough to point out, your putting java in xml. If you expect to make an app you need to read some beginner guides first.
you have almost a month to do it.
Thanks, I didn't mean to be rude. Where can I find the guide? :thumbup:

Set Switch status from incoming JSON data
Sorry to bump this thread after such a long time but I am facing a problem with switches myself and would appreciate some help. I have a JSON parser class which is retrieving data from a database. The retrieved info contains 'ID', 'name' and 'status' fields related to a device. I can display ID and name of each of the devices (there are several rows) using a listview but I don't know how to use the 'status' field value (it is either 1 or 0) to set an associated Switch component. I have to set the Switch associated with each listview item to ON if incoming 'status' value is 1 and set it OFF if 'status' is 0. I am lost on where to put the 'setChecked' method for every listview item. Here's the code of activity that shows these list items:
Code:

The XML file:

<!-- Product id (pid) - will be HIDDEN - used to pass to other activity -->
<TextView

android:visibility="gone" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:paddingLeft="6dip"
android:textSize="17dip"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView

android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:textOff="OFF"
android:textOn="ON"
android:onClick="onSwitchClicked"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
I have reached thus far with the code: [attached-image]
Now I only have to set those Switches according to status values from database. I have tried putting the setChecked in doInBackground method and onPostExecute method but it doesn't work. Do I have to save all status values in an array and start a loop to set all Switches? Where would that code go?
ANY kind of help/guidance here is appreciated!

[Q]How to hand different Strings to dynamically created Fragments using ViewPager?

I can't seem to find a way to give different text to a dynamically created fragment for my pageviewer-supoorted application. I've came to a point of my codding where I got stuck. For my application I want to have 400-500 dynamically created fragments, where you can horizontally slide thru them and every content of the fragment to be the same (repeating the same fragment) and the only different thing to be the text on them.
Here's where I got stuck at my codding :
Code:

* intensive, it may be best to switch to a

I wanted to first off introduce you to a widget called Viewpagerindicator by Jake Wharton if you haven't already come across it. It is a very popular viewpager extension.
You can download a demo from google play (this I recommend), search for "viewpager indicator"
To give you a back of the envelope solution, I would suggest you try creating at least 2 fragments and then page between them updating the text in on resume(). Do these fragment words need to be remembered? For instance if the user swipes back and forth are the same words meant to reappear?

Ohh, I was not aware about this extension. I'm gonna try it and see what I get out of it. Yes, the words need to be remembered. Thank you for the heads-up about 'viewpager indicator' .

When you get the Viewpager indicator setup with a couple of fragments initialised you need to track the words you create. You could use a SparseArray/ArrayList or such like to track the position of frag and word perhaps. Then you should be able to move through the array depending on the swipe you receive. The swipe would move you up or down the array giving you access.
Code:
SparseArray<String> sa = new SparseArray<String>();
As I said this is a back of the envelope solution but it may just do the trick.
