Help! Guys, I am trying to get thebuttonin my layout to have focus as I am programmatically changing its state. My application is a video player using VideoView. I am toggling the state of thebuttonbased on where my video is. So basically, I am doing videoview.getCurrentPosition() and if it is in a certain window, I want to toggle myButtonstate (enabled to disabled and vice versa). The layout is LinearLayout and I have the VideoView andButtonlayed horizontally. When I first had the MediaController in my Video, thebuttonwould change focus on touching the videoview (which is when the MediaController would pop up). I later removed the controller because I didn't want thebuttonstate to change when the user touches the screen. I want it to change automatically. I tried all sorts of combinations possible.button.setFocusable(),button.requestFocus(),button.bringToFront() and so on. But none of them seem to work. Is there any way I can make it toggle programatically and without user intervention through touch? or is it impossible to do it with the VideoView?

[android-developers] Re: App download too less
Yes, you are absolutely right and I am not uploading anything before I create something more interesting and well tested. But it took some solid efforts to create this puzzle. The theme may be cheesy, but the app is not a spam or a junk. Unless there is some issue loading the images or the execution of the app in phones, the app is quite interesting ( though I know it is subjective). Now, as there is still half a month, before I can afford buying the dev phone, I needed somebody to let me know what are the errors users get while using it in their phones. But thanks anyways, for the replies and the suggestions. Agree and appreciate all of it.

This is the stacktrace I received, when I published the app. Now, nowhere in the stacktrace, my classes are mentioned. So I am not able to understand, where the code is breaking.

[android-developers] Persist a variable value

Now when user is done with browsing, (s)he will kill the app. Next time he opens the app, it should take him/her to the last viewed image. Obviously I have to store the last index somewhere.

[android-developers] Re: Jigsaw puzzle image source
Thanks guys. I am currently checking the sites. Can I ask for another suggestion? Do you think it would be good idea to load images from internet directly? I mean, I dont want to increase the size of the application, by storing images into the phone. Loading it from the web seemed good idea. But then I am not sure if users would be having lower bandwidths, which might impact the downloading of images, or maybe they have to incur extra cost based on their data plan. What should be the best practice in this case?

[android-developers] Re: WAnt to break an image into pieces...........
Dividing into pieces of same size is easy. You have to write your own logic, to divide it into pieces of different size. But anyways, you need to read about the Bitmap api and also BitmapDrawable.
