Hi I'm trying to make a web based app but i'm a beginner and not 100% sure what i'm doing right now please could you guide me there are no errors but it says the app is not responding when I run it
Main Java
package com.theverge.www.theverge;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import static com.theverge.www.theverge.R.id.*;
public class TheVerge extends Activity {
private WebView the_verge;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_the_verge);
the_verge = (WebView) findViewById(activity_the_verge_webview);
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = the_verge.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// Force links and redirects to open in the WebView instead of in a browser
the_verge.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
the_verge.loadUrl("http://www.theverge.com");
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_the_verge, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Here is the xml for the main activity
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".TheVerge">
<TextView android:text="" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
The AndroidManfest xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

You need to add a WebView to your layout file. Change it to something like this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/activity_the_verge_webview"
android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".TheVerge">
<WebView
android:id="#+id/webView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
And then replace your onCreate() method with this one
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_the_verge);
the_verge = (WebView) findViewById(webView1);
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = the_verge.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// Force links and redirects to open in the WebView instead of in a browser
the_verge.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
the_verge.loadUrl("http://www.theverge.com");
}
You are trying to asign your relativelayout to a webview variable here:
the_verge = (WebView) findViewById(activity_the_verge_webview);
You need to add a webview to the layout and give it a id
Asign the webview variable to the id you just used in 1.
Also if you plugin your device to a computer you get a crashlog in your program :)
You have defined textview instead of webview in your xml.Try this out...
xml layout

My problem is that the client_subdomain is flagged as red in the MainActivity.java and when I try to build the project, I get the error: cannot find symbol variable client_subdomain
I think it's probably something small that I've missed out but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Sam
Store the variable using sharedPrefeence as below,
SharedPreferences sp = getSharedPreferences("your_prefs", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sp.edit();
editor.putString("your_string_key", yourStringValue);
editor.commit();
Then retrieve the value as,
SharedPreferences sp = getSharedPreferences("your_prefs", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
String myStringValue = sp.getInt("your_string_key", -1);
Use the variable in the loadUrl as
mWebView.loadUrl("https://"+myStringValue+".mydomain.co.uk");

Many thanks,

Its because haven't declared "client_subdomain" as a variable within scope of onCreate
why don't you try changing displayData to
public String displayData () {
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getSharedPreferences("spfile",
Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
return sharedPref.getString("name", "");
}
and in onCreate of the Main Activity
...
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = mWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// Use remote resource
mWebView.loadUrl("https://"+displayData()+".domain.co.uk/texts");
...
Also, I don't see you ever calling "saveInfo" anywhere in your Login Activity. As well, you should probably change the function too. You aren't grabbing the text from the EditText correctly (whatever YourSchool) is
public void saveInfo() {
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getSharedPreferences("spfile", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
editor.putString("name", subdomain.getText().toString());
editor.commit();
}
And this will be what your onCreate should have,
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
saveInfo();
Intent myIntent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
LoginActivity.this.startActivity(myIntent);
}
});
...
}
I'm fresh for Android App. I done my first Webview app. Now want to add Loading Image(.jpg), before the website load. I don't know anything. Just explain clearly. Image may add in app or image from another source.

I think the easiest way to do it is to place an imageView over the webView and then when the site loaded, hide it.
First of all u must change your xml like this:
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin">
<WebView
android:id="#+id/activity_main_webview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/activity_main_imageview"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent" />
</FrameLayout>
and add this line to your main activity
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
// hide your imageView
}
});
just let me know if u wanted more details.
Update 2:
In your MainActivity, after setContentView, add this:
final ImageView mImageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.activity_main_imageview);
after that u can set image to this imageView in xml or in code:
in xml change your ImageView:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/activity_main_imageview"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:src="#drawable/img" />
and your MainActivity should be this:
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.activity_main_webview);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.activity_main_webview);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.steptoinstall.com");
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = mWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// Force links and redirects to open in the WebView instead of in a browser
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
mImageView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
});
To add Splash screen before loading main activity. then add this
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.example.tabs.R;
public class Splash extends Activity implements Runnable
{
Thread mThread;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash);
mThread = new Thread(this);
mThread.start();
}
#Override
public void run()
{
try
{
Thread.sleep(2000);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
finally
{
startActivity(new Intent(Splash.this, MainActivity.class));
finish();
}
}
}
and xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

The new layout name is: FunPage
Thx!
From the code you pasted for MainActivity, it looks like you are mixing two different ways to handle button clicks.
If you can to register the click listener from your layout xml, the method corresponding to the onClick attribute needs to be public and not declared as a method inside your button1 listener.
An alternative is to listen to click events solely with your Java code. If you do this, then remove the onClick attribute from your layout XML for that button. There are many, many examples out there.
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View view){
//TODO -- In your case, start the "Intro" activity
}
}
It might help if you extract that method to start the Intro activity to a method outside of the click listener (i.e., as a method of MainActivity).
I am creating an applicationwhich has a button which on click has to open google maps. But onclick its blank!! I have used intent, is there any other way to load google maps into my application? What is wrong with my code? what am i missing?

Do I have to download the google map key or something? Because i read on the internet that to load google maps on my application activity I have to download the key and only then will maps work! Is that why I am having this problem??
String url = "http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + "9982878"+","+"76285774"+"&daddr="+"9992084"+","+"76286455";
Intent intent1 = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent1);
If you use the above your os will find the available app's to display the map. I tested the above in samsung galaxy s3. I had the option of choosing from default phone browser, chrome and Maps. All the apps were already installed on my phone.
It may be a browser or maps available in the phone. But this opens a new application from your activity.
If you want to display map in your application by customizing, then use google map api available for android.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSqLKIow7sY. You can follow the tutorial to get google map API Key. API key is required if your using Google maps API for displaying maps on your phone.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>//permission in manifest
After you get the key in your map.xml paste the key
<com.google.android.maps.MapView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mapview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="350dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:apiKey="paste your key here" //paste key
/>
You can also use a webview. This is as good as opening the browser to display map.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
WebView wv;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
wv= (WebView) findViewById(R.id.wv);
wv.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
WebSettings webSettings = wv.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wv.loadUrl("http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + "9982878"+","+"76285774"+"&daddr="+"9992084"+","+"76286455");
}
}
