I'm trying to get a text box that looks like a spinner to activate a date picker dialog. This is done in both the Google Calendar app and the Contacts app (for birthdate) on ICS. Do I need to use a spinner, and if so how do I change it's input view to be a date picker? Or if not, how do I get a text view to have the little triangle that usually indicates a spinner? codinguser Twaddington's comment on his answer is actually the right approach. What you need is to create a text view and apply the style style="@android:style/Widget.DeviceDefault.Light.Spinner" Then you can create a click listener

I am new to android and want to parse json data in a listview and then add search functionally to it, but I don't know how to add search. The Java class is: public class AndroidJSONParsingActivity extends ListActivity { // url to make request private static String url = "http://10.0.2.2/quick/punk.php"; // JSON Node names private static final String TAG_CUSTOMER = "Customer"; private static final String TAG_CUSTOMER_CODE = "customer_code"; private static final String TAG_CUSTOMER_NAME = "customer_name"; private static final String TAG_CUSTOMER_MOBILE = "customer_mobile"; private static final

I'm making my own search view for Android 2.3. I have. LinearLayout (Horizontal) AutoCompleteTextView ImageButton I added the button and AutoCompleteTextView to LinearLayout .

My Galaxy Nexus arrived today, and one of the first things I did was to load my app onto it so I could demonstrate it to my friends. Part of its functionality involves importing RSS Feeds from Google Reader. However, upon trying this, I was getting 405 Method Not Allowed errors. This problem is Ice Cream Sandwich-specific. The code I've attached works fine on Gingerbread and Honeycomb. I've traced the error down to the moment the connection is made, when the GET request magically turns into a POST request. /** * Get the authentication token from Google * @param auth The Auth Key generated in

I'd like to extend the discussion regarding hiding of the system/navigation bar at the bottom of the screen on Android Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0 and up) tablet devices. There's already a thread ( Is there a way to hide the system bar in Android 3.0? It's an internal device and I'm managing navigation ) about hiding the bar on Honeycomb devices. My clients, however, will be using the newest Ice Cream Sandwich devices and are very keen on hiding the bar at the bottom the screen. Their application is not for regular consumer use and it's very important for them to take over the whole screen to

I'd like to know whether it's possible to create a VPN interface programmatically with the new VPN APIs in Android 4.0. I've looked through http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ToyVpn but this is about creating a complete VPN client that handles the connections etc. I only want to add a new VPN configuration and possibly remove existing ones. There are lots of questions like this but they all seem to be pre 4.0. I understand that previously this wasn't possible, but one would think that the new VPN APIs provided such functionality. So has anyone found a way to do this, or is it still

The goal is to intercept broadcasts from the headset, as well as bluetooth eventually, to respond to different types of clicks from the headset to alter the mediaplayer. This solution works fine for all versions prior to ICS. Here is some of the code and things I have tried: .... private BroadcastReceiver mediaButtonReceiver = new MediaButtonIntentReceiver(); .... public void onCreate() { ... IntentFilter mediaFilter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON); mediaFilter.setPriority(2147483647); // this is bad...I know this.registerReceiver(mediaButtonReceiver, mediaFilter); ... } public
