Hi XDA-Developers!
I need your help with this little problem, I hope that anybody could help me
I have an Activity with this:
Code:
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
mLinearLayout = (RelativeLayout)inflater.inflate(R.layout.systemoverlayout, null);
wm = (WindowManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
int width = displaymetrics.widthPixels;
int height = displaymetrics.heightPixels;
int PhoneHeight = height;
params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
PhoneHeight,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_IN_SCREEN |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL,
PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
params.gravity = Gravity.CLIP_HORIZONTAL | Gravity.TOP;
wm.addView(mLinearLayout, params);
That displays a layout as a Window.
My problem is easy, How can I update the UI (change text of a TextView) when this window is showing?
When I try it with "***.setText("****");" I get Foce close.
Any Help?
Thank's and happy christmas!!

Please post your LogCat!
If it's a view, you won't need to refresh anything, it's done automatically for you .
You normally don't get a FC on calling setText, make sure you have the correct view! So you'd call:
Code:
TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.yourTextViewId);
tv.setText(R.string.yourText);
And for your errors make sure to read nikwen's awesome guide on debugging here.

The error gives FC in the line that setText in the TextView.
tv.setText("Error"); //Here!!
Why? Any help?

Well I'd guess it is a NullpointerException but without Logs it's not clear. How did you initialise the tv? If done right with findViewById, it should not be null. Please post some more code and read the debugging guide again!
Edit: You may need to call mLinearLayout.findViewById(...) instead of this.findViewById() if you still have that LinearLayout!

I want to create an update.zip file for a certain purpose and since it's quite a big thing, it'd be nice if I could comment on each step so that I don't get lost. Is it possible to add comments to an update.zip?
Yes it is.
Add such a line for every comment to your updater-script:
ui_print("Hello World!");
Regards
Mmm, I meant comments as text that I want to appear in the script, but I don't want to be ran or displayed.
For example:
Code:
ui_print("Hello World!");
[B]# this command shows the words "Hello World!" in the screen[/B]

yes should work
make sure u save the file in UNIX format
BTW why u posting this in Dev section? isnt this more suitable in General section?
Now that you mention it... I'll report it.
What do you mean, saving it in UNIX format?

I have seen another similar post of yours.
Here is a relatively simple way of showing and hiding a progress. There are a number of ways of doing this as you have probably already seen, this is just another way. Your ProgressBar (xml) needs to exist in your layout.
Code:
new AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void>() {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onPreExecute() {
((View) view.findViewById(R.id.your_progressbar_in_layout)).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
// Whatever you are executing off the UI thread
return null;
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
((View) view.findViewById(R.id.your_progressbar_in_layout)).setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}.execute();

Hi Bro Can you please elaborate more on how to add these codes as I am not aware of this so can u please guide properly with steps to do.
Do i need any application on my laptop or mobile
pls reply
Thanks
That's for your own app only. So you don't need anything expect the normal developer stuff (eclipse or androidstudio). Then just add above to your Activity and below to your manifest.

Hi guys this is my first tutorial here!
I'm not a developer but i want to contribute for the community, so some time ago i started translation of my favourite rom, the Mahdi ROM. That was about March 2014. As of now I've started a new project: translations for Chroma ROM (June 2015)
You need only one thing: the rom has to be open source on github.
So, let's start.
First, go to the rom sources on github and open the apk you want to translate. The most important directories are three:
Settings in /android_packages_apps_Settings
SystemUI in /android_frameworks_base/packages/systemUI
Core in /android_frameworks_base/core
1) to find file(s) to translate you have to go in the directory and then in the folder res.
2) now, it's full of folders but you only need two of them. open in two tabs of your browser values and values-xx (xx are two letters that determinate your language, e.g. "it" for italian and "fr" for french).
3) in values you have to find the file "name-of-the-rom-strings.xml". this is the file you'll translate. now in values-xx, open the file "name-of-the-rom-strings.xml" and click on edit. probably in values-xx folder you won't find the file "name-of-the-rom-strings.xml", if so, click on the "+" near to the name of the directory and create a new file called like the previous one. remember the extension (.xml)
4) now, copy all strings from "name-of-the-rom-strings.xml" in values and paste in the file you were editing in values-xx. now you are ready to translate the rom, read tips down here.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What if the folder values-xx doesn't exist?
No problem. Click on the "+" icon to create a file, and write values-xx/***. The slash create a new folder. Et voilà!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
READ:
1) you only have to translate what's between ><
2) before every ' , add a slash like this \, so if you want to write don't, write don\'t
3) DO NOT translate strings which say translatable=false, delete those strings
4) do not add >< or "" or "string". just change what's between ><. Good luck!

I do have a question.
I'm tring to translate every single English word to my language (Dutch)
But where do I find the words that are still in English?
In the picture I uploaded are 2 examples.
You see 'UI Settings' and 'Performance' still in English.
Can you help me?

Mmh, this is all something you should find in settings files. Try to use ctrl+f in the file and write what you're looking for . Btw what rom is that?

How do u check if some translations have already been pushed without being validated?
A guy just told me that he already sent a request for a part of my translations but I didn't see them before starting to translate. Everything was in English on the "rom_strings.xml" file into values-fr folder.
actually, i don't know :c

Here is the answer:
1. From the main page of a package eg "Mahdi-Rom/android_packages_apps_Settings" click on "Pull requests" on the right (if any)
2. Select a commit
3. Select "Files changed" tab
4. We can see the original lines in red and the modifications in green
Op updated for when there isn't values-xx folder in the package ?

Hi,
I want to start translating the English stuff to Dutch.
And I noticed there is not a mahdi_strings.xml in Dutch yet.
So I have to add that right?
But there is so much to translate from mahdi_strings.xml.
A lot of English words are probably already translated.
How do I figure that out?

About android_frameworks_base there's only one request for the moment so you can translate the GERMAN part. Edit the file then enter your modifications and send your request.

I don't think you can "edit" them.
You can delete them by just typing the word you want and then pressing the > arrow next to the suggestions that pop up then holding the word down and press remove.
To delete all and start fresh you can go;
Settings > General Management > Language And Input > On-Screen Keyboard > Samsung Keyboard > Reset To Default Settings > Clear Personalized Data
