spinner

I found an issue in google groups, but they haven't answered yet. Spinner memory leak I

I am trying to set smaller height of EditText but still have not managed it. Here is my source: <EditText android:layout_width="150dp" android:layout_height="20dp" android:singleLine="true" android:textSize="10dp" /> This code cuts out text and a white rectangular shape appears around EditText control.

On hitting the create button a call to a web-service is made so the spinner/loader will show from call start to call end. Below is my controller: $m = MetersInventoryStore::findOne($_REQUEST['selected_meters']); $msn = $m->meter_serial; // current selected meter serial number is saved $date_time = str_replace(' ', 'T', date('Y-m-d H:i:s')); // current date time $api_url = 'http://xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:7000/api/meters/GetByMsn/' . $msn . '/' .$date_time; // my

I am working on multi languages UI. My requirement is in spinner I want to show data in Hindi but when it will be selected it should return english show it can compare to further decision making. Just like tag with tag.
