Currently, I am creating a custom View class (DrawView) that inherits

Google has already complied with the Chinese government by using Google.cn

Everything (DNS, servers, routers) are under local government surveillance

As a crude sort of way to get around this problem, you can assign your
drawable references to null once you do not find a use for them so
that the GC can free these allocations.

Not sure if it's the best way, but you can use padding to position

I don't think you have fully identified the problem you are

that it does nothing special to handle KeyEvents. So the problem you

Nevermind, they are being called, however when the onStop/onPause is

It only lets me if the back key is pressed.

with surfaceChanged() is that this gets called after any such parameters
