Tablet or Phone - Android

Question

Is there a way to check if the user is using a tablet or a phone? I\'ve got problems with my tilt function and my new tablet (Transformer)

Answer 1

Based on Robert Dale Johnson III and Helton Isac I came up with this code Hope this is useful

public static boolean isTablet(Context context) {
    TelephonyManager manager = 
        (TelephonyManager)context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    if (manager.getPhoneType() == TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_NONE) {
        //Tablet
        return true;
    } else {
        //Mobile
        return false; 
    }
}

public static boolean isTabletDevice(Context activityContext) {
    // Verifies if the Generalized Size of the device is XLARGE to be
    // considered a Tablet
    boolean xlarge = 
         ((activityContext.getResources().getConfiguration().screenLayout & 
           Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK) == Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_XLARGE);

    // If XLarge, checks if the Generalized Density is at least MDPI (160dpi)
    if (xlarge) {
        DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
        Activity activity = (Activity) activityContext;
        activity.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);

        // MDPI=160, DEFAULT=160, DENSITY_HIGH=240, DENSITY_MEDIUM=160,
        // DENSITY_TV=213, DENSITY_XHIGH=320
        if (metrics.densityDpi == DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_DEFAULT
                  || metrics.densityDpi == DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_HIGH
                  || metrics.densityDpi == DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_MEDIUM   
                  || metrics.densityDpi == DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_XHIGH) {

             // Yes, this is a tablet!
             return true;
        }
    }

    // No, this is not a tablet!
    return false;
}

So in your code make a filter like

if(isTabletDevice(Utilities.this) && isTablet(Utilities.this)){
    //Tablet
} else {
    //Phone
}
