Hey, just wanted to drop a quick line about two Android projects that I just open-sourced.
One is Greasemonkey on steroids, which lets websites reach into the Android intent world. There's a video demo showing http://m.half.com with a "Scan Barcode" button added, and linking Wikipedia articles to Maps and Radar apps. http://www.jsharkey.org/blog/2008/12/15/oilcan-greasemonkey-on-steroids-for-android/ The second is an app that groups all your installed apps using the categories shown in Android Market, making it much easier to find apps. (My all-apps drawer on the homescreen was getting pretty crowded.) Oh, and it offers long-press uninstall for any apps. (This app is still a little rough around the edges.) http://www.jsharkey.org/blog/2008/12/15/grouphome-organize-your-android-apps-into-groups/ It also offers an example hack of showing app icons in a GridView style, but inside of a ExpandableListView, which isn't really possible out-of-the-box. It does this by wrapping each row of icons into a horizontal LinearLayout, which it can then recycle correctly. In particular, it needed this one-line gem: getExpandableListView().setItemsCanFocus(true); There are links on those blog posts to the full source code of both apps on Google Code, along with APKs ready to install and play with. :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
