android-screen-support

I'm developing an application that is installed on the system partition and I would like to know if it's possible to get a screenshot of the current foreground application from a service. Of course, the application being any third party app. I'm not interested in security issues or anything related to that matter. I only want to get a snapshot of the current foreground third party app. Note: I'm aware of the /system/bin/screencap solution but I'm looking for a more elegant alternative that does everything programmatically. The method that I'm going to describe below will let you to

This is my code in my android manifest file. supports-screens android:resizeable="true" android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" android:anyDensity="true" What I understand from supportscreens is that it can be used to simply fit the app screen onto the multiple screen sizes done by resizing it and stretching the image. However, I don't see any difference with or without this code. Can anyone help me?

I have to write an app for tablet and for phones too. The two app has the same functionality, but they have absolute different GUI. For example the phone have 2 button on the main screen, but the tablet going to have 5, because we would like to use the space what we have. I know, I˜m able to define different layouts, depends on dpi, but how should I handle the layout-s in the Activiies? I think, to use if(sdkVersion >=11) bla..bla... is not will works through the hole code and the hole project! Is this the situation where I have to use multiple application support ? readed articles: http:/

The app I'm developing contains 2 separate layouts: one is for the regular phones, other for small tablets such as NOOKcolor. The decision which is which is made based on the screen width resolution (currently 600dip). It looks great on Nook but terrible on HTC Rezound, which has a 720 x 1280 display. On the latter, regardless of higher resolution, everything (text, images, etc) look much larger so it gets all bunched up. What would be a good approach to pick the right device? Perhaps detect physical size (4.3" vs 7") vs resolution? Use the following method to detect your device's screen size:

In my app there is a long loading process, and if the devices puts on the screen lock, my process stops for some reason. How can i prevent the device from automatic screen lock? you have to declare this uses-permission on AndroidManifest: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" /> And in your code Activity: PowerManager powerManager = (PowerManager)context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE); WakeLock wakeLock = powerManager.newWakeLock(PowerManager.FULL_WAKE_LOCK, "My Lock"); wakeLock.acquire(); Just remember to release this lock when your application is paused or
