screen-size

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:

I'm developing an Android Widget and need to differentiate between Galaxy S and Galaxy S2 . I almost read everything about Screen sizes and densities articles. And I need, of course, to use the new qualifiers with the new qualifier Smallest Width . My problem is, that the sw320dp qualifier match for Galaxy S and also for Galaxy S2. But I need another layout for Galaxy S2, but cant find the right qualifier for it. Definition of Galaxy S, Density 233 Screen Size in Pixels: 480 Pixel x 800 Pixel Screen Size in dp: 329dp x 549dp (cause 1dp = 1pixel/(density/160) -> so the qualifier sw320dp must

Here's my snippet for detecting a mobile display based on the screen size. You can force the site to stay in desktop-mode by adding a forceDesktop param to the URL. I`m new to jquery so if you have suggestions, please comment. Credits go to brandonjp: How can I get query string values in JavaScript? <script> $.urlParam = function(name, url) { if (!url) { url = window.location.href; } var results = new RegExp('[\\?&]' + name + '=([^&#]*)').exec(url); if (!results) { return undefined; } return results[1] || undefined; } window.onload = function() { var forceDesktop = $.urlParam('forceDesktop');

I'm finishing off an Android app, all that remains is to adapt the UI layouts and graphics for multiple devices. I need particular elements placed in particular positions on the screen. The Android docs explain how the multiple screen resolutions and sizes are classified, and explain the resource tagging system. For example, both WVGA800 (480x800) and WVGA854 (480x854) are classified as normal high density screens. To cater for these you're asked to create a folder called "layout" (already present for "normal") and "drawable-hdpi". The problem is this does nothing to differentiate two devices
