I am having trouble creating a webview app for my already mobile ready site.
I keep getting this error in the emulator:
The application window cleaning forums (process com.windowcleaningforums) has stopped unexpectadly
The app never actualy loads just goes straight to this.
Basically i already have my sites mobile ready and browsing to them on your mobile works fine, but would like to put these into apps.
With a back, forward and refresh button when hitting menu button on phone.
(I am not sure what i need to add these yet but any advice would be great)
My project is set as bellow
Application name: Window Cleaning Forums
Package name: com.windowcleaningforums
Create activity: windowcleaningforums
Mini SDK version: 4
windowcleaningforums.java
Code:
package com.windowcleaningforums;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class windowcleaningforums extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
//@Override
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && mWebView.canGoBack()) {
mWebView.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
WebView mWebView;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.windowcleaningforums.co.uk");
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
}
}

I am very new and im not quite sure what is causing it any help would be great. Thanks
I get this if that is any help i am not sure what it means though.
[2011-01-12 22:35:07 - DeviceMonitor]Sending jdwp tracking request failed!
This is the log if that helps also i really could do with some help peeps, nobody seems to want to. I know i am new and prob asking stupid questions but how am i supposed to learn if i dont ask questions.
Hi cyberpedz,
Probably just a typo but in your main.xml the WebView tag should have a capital "W" like so:
<WebView xmlns:andro...
You did the right thing looking in the log. That's what helped to figure this one out: there was an exception stack trace in the log. (Keep an eye out for the "AndroidRuntime" tag)
Thanks i have changed that but no difference.
I do have a red dot over a hellowebview class though
When viewing windowcleaningforums.java and looking at the right in outline i have a read dot over hellowebviewclient
Could it be something to do with this bit of code?
Code:
public class windowcleaningforums extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
//@Override
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
Try moving the
Code:
//@Override
just before onCreate and uncomment it.
Also Java classes should start with a capital (public class Windowcleaningforum). Make sure you modify the Manifest accordingly.
Ok finally i have it working, it was me being blind i missed a webView now changed to Webview and all works thanks so much.
Now i am trying to get a loading progress bar or even better spinning circle.
What code would i need for this and where abouts in my java bellow would i fit it in?
Code:
package com.windowcleaningforums;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class windowcleaningforums extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
//@Override
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && mWebView.canGoBack()) {
mWebView.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
WebView mWebView;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.WebView);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.windowcleaningforums.co.uk");
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
}
}
Anyone know how to get the spinning circle while pages loads? and how to imput into my code above?
Would be a great help
Ok finally i have a running webview in the market what i would like to do now is add a soft menu for a back, refresh and forward button what code do i need and where would i put it in my java below?
Code:
package com.windowcleaningforums;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class windowcleaningforums extends Activity
{
final Activity activity = this;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.WebView);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int progress)
{
activity.setTitle(" Loading...");
activity.setProgress(progress * 100);
if(progress == 100)
activity.setTitle(R.string.app_name);
}
});
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
@Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl)
{
// Handle the error
}
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
{
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
});
webView.loadUrl("http://www.windowcleaningforums.co.uk");
}
}
So why is it no body wants to help is it the way i ask? is it that developers think they are above the noob? or you really cant b bothered!!
I have even offered to pay for help in the past yet nobody is interested maybe it is that no one really knows the answers.

It's not that developers can't be bothered, but generally they will have other things to do than help out others. The thing is, you're asking on help for pretty basic stuff. This is something that you should know already, and if don't I suggest you should read through Android's developer website one more time and look at the API examples/demos too.
Hints for your problem; Add the buttons as a merge layout in your XML and then link them with your web view, or add them as menu options. Googling for both will surely give you enough results to get you on your way, these are pretty basic things you want to do after all.
Doing a theme for ADW and want to include a wallpaper chooser so the user can browse through my wallpaper set...
I am working in eclipse.
I have successfully got setup in wallpaper menu (when you press and hold homescreen, select wallpaper, Then you see the option for wallpaper i have setup)
BUT when click i get a force close...
I have 10 wallpapers in my drawable-hdpi folder. they are named
wallpaper1
wallapper2
etc...
I also have my wallpaper1_small, etc... set up too..
This is contents of my wallpaper_chooser.xml in layout
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">
<ImageView android:id="@id/wallpaper" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0.0dip" android:scaleType="fitCenter" android:layout_weight="1.0" />
<Gallery android:id="@id/gallery" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<Button android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:id="@id/set" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Set wallpaper" />
</LinearLayout>
This is my wallpaper_item.xml in layout
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ImageView android:background="?android:galleryItemBackground" android:focusable="true" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:scaleType="fitXY"

It goes into the wallpaper picker without getting FC but after sliding the wallpapers on bottom it goes away all of a sudden...
One note is that the following code was originally R.layout.wallpaper, BUT get error...
changed to (setContentView(R.layout.wallpaper_chooser)
Is this that difficult?
or just not that common?
or maybe i should be more familiar with how apk's work?
Any help is appreciated...

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"

,"m74","m75","m76","m77","m78","m79","m80","m81","m82","m83","m84","m85","m86","m87","m88","m89","m90","m91","m92","m93"

};
}
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);
}
}
Hey developing my first app, i have no coding expierience or background unless you consider building custom harleys or operating heavy equipment coding lol
anyway i have gotten the splash screen and splash screen sound, main menu main function button, and the screen that comes up after you press the button that says the function has been performed done
but i cant seem to figure out how to get the function to work, right now when you press it it takes you to the next "page" that tells you that the function has been done but the function doesnt actually take place.
what i am trying to get it to do is when you press the button it takes a file thats in the app's /res/raw folder and copies it to the phones /data/local folder
if anyone can help with guidence direction etc tha twould be greatly appreciated
You're going to have to submit a bit more information for anyone to have any reasonable chance at figuring out what you are doing and how to fix it.
First, I assume this is a Eclipse project using a normal activity with a class derived from Activity as the main thread, right? You have mapped your buttons to classes and set their onClickListener() functions?

yes it is an eclipse project using a norm activity,so far i have gotten it to load the "splash" screen while playign an audio file, then transition to the main menu, the one button i have placed on the main menu has been successfully "mapped" to transition to a final screen that has some text on it *text is "the file has been installed"*, but i am tryign to get it to perform another function at the same time as transitioning to the final screen. im not sure how to code it to do that. the function i want it to do is: copy fileX.zip from app's /res/raw folder and place in phones /data/local folder.
i appoligize if im not wording something correctly as this is all new to me. again thank you for responding
i have copied what i have done so far if that helps

So you want some sort of screen animation going on while copying the file? I would think that you could do it in a thread and signal the main app with a handler once the thread exits. Are you familiar with threads and handlers at all?
no this is actully my first venture into app creation, i figured it was going to be a simple easy app to create for a newbie lol i guess i was wrong lol. basicly what i want it to do is push the "install" button, copy the file then load the next screen saying "the file has been installed"

Here's a simple app that uses a thread and a handler to update the title every second. Hopefully it will give you some ideas on how to approach your problem:
Code:
package com.myapp.threadtest;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.Message;
public class MyTestActivity extends Activity{
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Thread myRefreshThread = new Thread(new MyTimerThread());
myRefreshThread.start();
}
Handler mHandler=new Handler(){
public void handleMessage(Message msg){
switch(msg.what){
case 0:
setTitle("hello_"+msg.arg1);
break;
}
super.handleMessage(msg);
}
};
class MyTimerThread implements Runnable{
private int count=10;
private Message msg;
private int i;
public void run(){
for(i=count+1;i>=0;i--){
msg=mHandler.obtainMessage(0);
msg.arg1=i;
msg.sendToTarget();
try{
Thread.sleep(1000);
}catch(InterruptedException e){
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
}
}
}
}
thank you, the message part im good on its getting the button to actully copy the file from the app's "/res/raw" folder to the phones " /data/local" folder that i have no clue on what to write for code or where
Whoa, you got WAY too much going on...
Splash screen to play clip that starts an Activity that has a button that starts an Activity in which neither Activity does anything! And then you want to get into JAVA File I/O?
Using all this GUI to copy a file is a waste; at most you need the splash screen with a small delay, copy the file over (easier said than done for novices) and then toss-up a Toast with "File Copied" and then exit. Unless you are planning more which we are not privy to.
The easiest way to transfer files is with terminal commands. You will need the absolute path of the resource and the destination and then use something like this...
Runtime.getRuntime(). exec("cp <file 1> <file 2>");
From something awesome

ok im kinda confused
with its current coding this is what the app does
after app instalation click on app drawer
click on app, it loads splash screen and plays sound file for 10 seconds
then transitiosn to main menu, main menu has 1 button on it
press button and it transitions to next screen which has text on it "the animation has been installed"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
now in its current state it doesnt actually "install" anything, what i am trying to get it to do is when the final screen is loaded the one that says "the animation has been installed" i want it to copy a file from the app's /res/raw folder and place that copy into the phones /data/local folder.
there will actually be more features added at a later date so so i dont midn the added GUI stuff.
If they press the button on Main Menu, you need to do something there, NOT call another Activity (code not tested.... )
Code:
public class MainMenu extends Activity {
private Button myBtn;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.checklist);
/** XML has android:onClick="onClick" */
myBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.myButton);
}
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(MainMenu.this, "Copying File", 10000).show();
// copy your file here..
}
}

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.

[COLOR="Red"]<!-- Add as many addTab(); methods as you need Tabs. The addTab() is universal-->[/COLOR]
}
}

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);

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!

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);
[B]//create the list[/B]
List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
[B]//add some list Items ( if you want a custom text , just use list.add("blahblah")[/B]
for (int i =0; i<40; i++) {
list.add("Test"+i);
}
[B]//create the adapter[/B]
ArrayAdapter<?> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this.getActivity(),
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list);
[B]//Set the adapter[/B]
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
[B]/*
create and set the Listener
you can also implement this in your activity with
"public class youractivity extends Activity implements OnItemClickListener"
then use lv.setOnItemClickListener(this)
*/[/B]
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onItemClick(HtcAdapterView<?> arg0, View v,
int pos, long id) {
[B]//make a Toast Message that displays the Selected item NAME[/B]
Toast.makeText(v.getContext(),"pressed: "+ lv.getItemAtPosition(pos), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
[B]/*
if you want t perform something different for each item you can use the case statement
switch(pos){
case 0:
Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), "HI!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
case 1:
Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), "HELLO!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
[...]
case 39:
//do something
break;
*/[/B]
}
});
return rootView;
}
}

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
