Set image in app as wallpaper - java

I am not able to set an image from the app as wallpaper. On running it shows unfortunately testandroid stopped working.
I have set the permission in the manifest file and set minimum SDK to 5.

Try removing the following from onCreate()
ImageView imgview = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageview1);
imgview.setImageResource(R.drawable.bing);
And add this to your onCreateView() method in your Fragment
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container,
false);
ImageView imgview = (ImageView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.imageview1);
imgview.setImageResource(R.drawable.bing);

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");

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).

Please help me.I'm stuck in this.
Thank you
activity_main.xml does not have a button or textviews. Looks like its in a Fragment Layout
I guess you have a fragment
PlaceholderFragment newFragment = new PlaceholderFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.container, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
Then in onCreateView of Fragment
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
add = (Button)rootView.findViewById(R.id.bAdd);
subtract=(Button)rootView.findViewById(R.id.bSubtract);
textview=(TextView)rootView.findViewById(R.id.name);
...// rest of the code
You have a FrameLayout which is a container. You need to add the fragment to the container. Also the views in activity belong to fragment layout. So you need to initialize the same in onCreateView as suggested.
Edit:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
PlaceholderFragment newFragment = new PlaceholderFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.container, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
Then
public static class PlaceholderFragment extends Fragment {
int counter;
Button add,subtract;
TextView textview;
public PlaceholderFragment() {
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
add = (Button)rootView.findViewById(R.id.bAdd);
subtract=(Button)rootView.findViewById(R.id.bSubtract);
textview=(TextView)rootView.findViewById(R.id.name);
... // rest of the code
return rootView;
}
}

Has anyone else ran into the same issue as me? Any help would be appreciated.

You need to call startActivity
public void sendMessage(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
String message = editText.getText().toString();
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, message);
startActivity(intent); // missing
}
Also make sure you have made an entry for the activities in manifest file.

Trying to get a brand new android project to work with SlidingMenu (jfeinstein10) and ActionbarSherlock

I created a brand new android project and added SherlockActionBar and SlidingMenu to it.
I thought that i had copied everything from the example file but it still doesn't work. It shows my main fragment but the menu doesn't show at all when i click on the icon.
What am i missing??
Here are the classes and XML. Project is empty except for these classes/xml files.
Class 1 (Main activity):
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.slidingmenu.lib.SlidingMenu;
import com.slidingmenu.lib.app.SlidingFragmentActivity;
public class Main extends SlidingFragmentActivity {
protected MenuFragment mFrag;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mFrag = new MenuFragment();
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.content_frame, new SectionOneFragment())
.commit();
// set the Behind View
setBehindContentView(R.layout.activity_menu);
getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.menu_frame, mFrag)
.commit();
// customize the SlidingMenu
SlidingMenu sm = getSlidingMenu();
sm.setMode(SlidingMenu.LEFT);
sm.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width);
sm.setShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadow);
sm.setBehindOffsetRes(R.dimen.slidingmenu_offset);
sm.setFadeDegree(0.35f);
sm.setTouchModeAbove(SlidingMenu.TOUCHMODE_FULLSCREEN);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
setSlidingActionBarEnabled(false);
}
}
Class 2 (Menu fragment):
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class MenuFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_menu, null);
}
}
Class 3 (SectionOne fragment)
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class SectionOneFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, null);
}
}
Xml 1 (res->layout->activity_main.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
Xml 2 (res->layout->activity_menu.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/menu_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
Xml 3 (res->layout->fragment_main.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView 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:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:text="#string/hello_world"
android:textColor="#ff00ff"
tools:context=".Main" />
Xml 4 (res->layout->fragment_menu.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:text="TEST"
android:textColor="#00ff00" />
Manifest:
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="15" />
<application
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/Theme.Sherlock" >
<activity
android:name=".Main"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
Shadow.xml, dimens.xml are copied from the sample project.
Asked jfeinstein10 and i see that i forgot to add the onOptionsItemSelected method.
Correct code to open (to fix my class above):
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
toggle();
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
Should be in the MainActivity class after onCreate.
