The G1s, as far as I know, got an Over-The-Air upgrade to v1.5 when it came out. The only thing that the older hardware precludes you from is testing your app on the newer hardware. The SDK is the same (unless somebody simply did not update their Android version on the phone). On Aug 14, 2:23

2009-08-11 Thread jhoffman
I'm not sure about the coordinates thing, but if you are trying to use rotateAnimation to rotate something such that it looks like it is spinning in-place, then 0,0 are not the coordinates you want. The coordinates are a 'pivot point'; you could think of them as the 'middle' of the rotation. If

I was pointed to http://www.android.com/branding.html when I had questions about some different legal issues. I checked and there isn't anything there regarding the G1 hardware... I guess because T-Mobile or somebody else probably owns the hardware licensing? I doubt anybody is really going to

Hi Mark, I'm pretty unfamiliar with detecting actual Airplane mode settings, but I do have a potential work-around for you in case you can't get it working the way you're trying to (which, by the way, definitely seems like the -right- way to do it). I've been checking for network connections

I would recommend looking into using AsyncTask to do this (http:// developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html). You can check against your mp.isPlaying() in the doInBackground portion, use a sleep for some appropriate amount of time if it is still playing (else finish the task),

It really depends on the structure of your app, but one trick you might employ is to launch your various activities with startActivityForResult(intent, ID); and then override onActivityResult to watch for a return value from the activity you launched. You can then make decisions about whether you

After all was said and done, that last issue appeared to be a matter of RelativeLayout and RotateAnimation not playing as nicely together as I thought. The 'visual' buttons were in a different place than the 'actual' buttons were. I switched to a LinearLayout setup, and things behaved a lot

Agreed! The orientation issues were a problem for me in an app I recently developed :( It ends up working out okay, but if there were support for either orientation, I think I could've made the app a bit cooler... On Jul 29, 2:26 pm, Sophie shkass...@gmail.com wrote: Hi developers, As I'm just

Romain, the solution you gave me works perfectly for rotating the layout upside-down. Unfortunately, I now have another problem! After the layout has been rotated, the Views no longer respond to clicks and long clicks. Inside of the RelativeLayout I am rotating, I have a textView that I allow the
