The fact that sub-menus don't support icons. http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/topics/ui/menus.html <http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/topics/ui/menus.html> *Icon Menu * This is the collection of items initially visible at the bottom of the screen at the press of the MENU key. It supports a maximum of six menu items. *These are the only menu items that support icons* and the only menu items that *do not* support checkboxes or radio buttons.

Try to use PopUpWindow <http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/PopupWindow.html>class. Here you have an example<http://www.anddev.org/how_to_create_a_popupwindow-t1259.html>

RemoteViews can't manipulate a buttons enabled/disabled state, but it can modify its visibility. So the trick is to have two buttons, the real one, and an other which is designed to look like the real one in disabled state, and change witch one is visible.

<Button android:id="@+id/startbutton" android:text="Start" android:visibility="visible"></Button> <Button android:id="@+id/startbutton_disabled" android:text="Start" android:clickable="false" android:textColor="#999999" android:visibility="gone"></Button>   <Button android:id="@+id/stopbutton" android:text="Stop"  android:visibility="gone"></Button> <Button android:id="@+id/stopbutton_disabled" android:text="Stop" android:clickable="false" android:textColor="#999999" android:visibility="visible"></Button>

RemoteViews remoteView = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget); remoteView.setViewVisibility(R.id.startbutton, View.GONE); remoteView.setViewVisibility(R.id.startbutton_disabled, View.VISIBLE); remoteView.setViewVisibility(R.id.stopbutton, View.VISIBLE); remoteView.setViewVisibility(R.id.stopbutton_disabled, View.GONE); AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context).updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, remoteView);

Moreover I am not one of top developers nor any of my apps have been promoted by Android Market. I am just an one among of thousands of Android developers with not to well known apps. And what may be really surprising all my apps are free as Google do not allow developers from my country (Poland) to sell apps via Android Market!

So keep in mind these facts: None of my apps has been ever promoted in Top of Android Market I am providing only free apps (mostly due of Android Market limitations) Even if I would be able to sell apps I would not use it as main income source… (I believe that you still can make more from ads…)

Droid-Fu offers both support classes meant to be used alongside existing Android code, as well as self-contained, ready-to-be-used components like new adapters and widgets. The areas tackled by Droid-Fu include: application life-cycle helpers support classes for handling Intents and diagnostics better support for background tasks super-easy and robust HTTP messaging powerful caching of Objects, HTTP responses, and remote images custom adapters and views I suggest you read this introductory article, and anything that follows.

I am just making some AppWidget and I want to pass some Strings through UpdateView to an Activity. But the Bundle is null. I try this: -Widget.java                       Intent defineIntent = new Intent(context, Visor.class);                        defineIntent.putExtra ("org.rss.androides.post2","artist");                        PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, defineIntent, 0);                        updateViews.setOnClickPendingIntent (R.id.widget, pendingIntent); -Viewer.java           Bundle b = intent.getExtras();                 if (b == null) {                     finish();                     return;                 } b is always null.

Remember that PendingIntents aren't keyed using extras: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/b296f43ae70c4587 You could hack the extras through by mangling them into Uri parameters, or if you're using a ContentProvider, just point to a specific row.

Or use PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT; just be careful that each active instance has its own unique Intent.

按我理解，layout_gravity 属性是用于设置View 与其容器的对齐关系的，但实际使用中 却发现 似乎不是这样，请看如下代码： <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:orientation="vertical"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="fill_parent"     android:background="#AA009988">     <TextView         android:id="@+id/my_view"         android:layout_width="220dip"         android:layout_height="100dip"         android:text="sdfasdfsdfsdf\nsdfjlwjesd"         android:background="#889900AA"         *android:layout_gravity="center"* /> </LinearLayout> 我为 TextView 设置了 *layout_gravity="center"*- ，本来它应该在父容器中 垂直和水平 居中的，但事实上只是水平居中了，垂直方向并未居中。 我再进一步通过 *layout_gravity="**center_vertical**"* ，但仍然无法垂直居中，请问这是为什么呢？

你可以在最外面的 LinearLayout 加上android:gravity="center". Vertical LinearLayout中， layout_gravity 设置成center无法垂直剧中，是因 为container的排版被限制为从上到下, 试想一下，如果按照你的逻辑，假设第一个child layout_gravity设置成bottom,   第二个childlayout_gravity设置成top,  那么第一个就会跑到第二个下面了。 所以， 当你设置整个linearlayout为垂直， layout_gravity中， 只有 left, right, center_ horizontal 管用的。 tj

> Now I just want to update the GUI from this method. > Can I somehow call a method in PushEndpointDemo.java? No, for two reasons: 1. Because C2DMReceiver is a manifest-registered BroadcastReceiver and therefore has no access to any activities 2. There might not be an activity, since you have no control over the timing of when the C2DM message is received (e.g., the user pressed BACK, the user pressed HOME) > Do I need a Broadcast Intent to do this? Possibly. -- If you want to update an activity or else ignore the message, have C2DMReceiver send out a private broadcast, picked up by a receiver registered via registerReceiver() in the activity -- If you want to update an activity or else raise a notification, have C2DMReceiver send out an ordered broadcast, as described here: http://commonsware.com/blog/2010/08/11/activity-notification-ordered-... -- If you want to update a database, call startActivity() on an IntentService, and have it do the database I/O, plus possibly broadcast an Intent to update an activity/raise a notification.

1. you can look at the video from Google IO conference 2009, called Turbo charging your UI's by Romain Guy; he discussed some of the optimizations you can do when working with ListViews. 2. You can read Mark Murphy's series of ListView tutorials at android guys titled Fancy ListViews: http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=4&ved=0CBYQFjAD...
