Android: Showing wrong screen resolution

Question

I was trying to get the screen resolution of android phones,using this code

    DisplayMetrics dm = new DisplayMetrics();
    getWindowManager().getDefaultDi         


        

Answer 1

Here is how i did it:

Display dis = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
Point point= new Point();
dis.getSize(point);
int width = point.x;
int height = point.y;

When not in an Activity:

WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) ctx.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
Display display = wm.getDefaultDisplay();

Before getSize was introduced (in API level 13), you could use the getWidth and getHeight methods that are now deprecated:

Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay(); 
int width = display.getWidth();  // deprecated
int height = display.getHeight();  // deprecated
