I am trying to develop a simple webview application. My code is as below:
mainactivity.java
package com.mancohandtools.www.mancohandtools;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.myWebView);
myWebView.loadUrl("http://www.mancohandtools.com/magento");
myWebView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
WebSettings webSettings = myWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
}
// Use When the user clicks a link from a web page in your WebView
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (Uri.parse(url).getHost().equals("www.centerend.com")) {
return false;
}
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
return true;
}
}
}

When I build APK and Run, it says unfortunately your apk has stopped running. The code I am using seems to be correct then what should be the problem? I am using android studio and version 6.0.

There is error in your xml file
<WebView android:id="#+id/myWebView"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:scrollbars="none"

</WebView>
you have mentioned webview, it should be WebView

}
And finally I ran project into Android emulator
But there is a exception in LogCat as below

I have read many answers on similar questions, but I didn't get this problem fix.
I am having operating system Windows 8.1 (32-bit)
I have heard there is a different way to setup emulator to display Google map. Is this related to my problem?
Please help me to fix this problem. Thanks.

Add this in AndroidManifest.xml
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />

Simple map based app not working

I'm attempting to get a simple map based app running but when I install on device and try to "open" I receive the error "unfortunately application has stopped" On emulator I receive the message :
[2014-03-18 21:37:16 - FirstMap] Installation error: Unknown failure
[2014-03-18 21:37:16 - FirstMap] Please check logcat output for more details.
[2014-03-18 21:37:16 - FirstMap] Launch canceled!
Why do I receive this message ? I think my code looks good as I have followed these steps : https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/v1/hello-mapview ?
Here is my code :
MainActivity.java :
package com.example.firstmap;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity;
import com.google.android.maps.MapView;
public class MainActivity extends MapActivity {
#Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
return false;
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
MapView mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
}
}

Refer to my post here:
Want to use GoogleMaps - OnMyLocationChangeListener but can't implement it? Any other options
I have described what exactly to use and how.
Hope you find it helpful .. :)

There are many things missing from your manifest file. Try following the official instructions on how to use google maps google map instructions
The instructions you followed refer to version 1 google maps for android which is deprecated.

Use Google Map Api V2, The important changes that you will have to make is
1) Make use of
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:name="android.app.DialogFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
i.e You have to use fragment tag in activity_main.xml instead of the mapview tag.
2) Refer Google play services.....
example: Google Maps Can't add reference to Play Services
Best Link to refer for newbies implementing Google Maps Api V2: http://www.androidhive.info/2013/08/android-working-with-google-maps-v2/

This looks like a 64bit issue, as android is looking for a 32bit ADT, there are a few options to solve this. Have a look at this question: Android SDK Setup under Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
I solved this under linux by doing sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

Have you checked your manifest.xml for mistakes?
I once had a small error in my manifest that didn't show up as an error and it wouldn't generate a new R file.
I noticed another small thing that might be the issue, in your main_activity.xml you use dimension strings for padding, when creating a new project these strings are located in res/values/dimens.xml but in your layout file you are referring to #dimen instead of #dimens (notice the missing 's').
Try changing it to "#dimens/..."

Displaying Images in Android using Java

I am splitting this off from my other thread here: Display image in popout window after button is clicked -- Android/Java
The old thread got very convoluted and confusing, and a bit off-topic, so I wanted to create another one that is clearer with more information.
I am trying to display an image in Android using an image file path that changes every time the app is run. I know there are ways to declare resources in the XML layout file, but since the picture I'd like to display is taken from the camera, I can't do it that way. I need to be able to display the image without hardcoding it.
The following is the code that I have:
photo_viewer.xml:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/pictureViewer"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:contentDescription="#string/viewImage" />
</RelativeLayout>
Java method to display image:
public void viewPhoto(String file){
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(getApplicationContext());
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(file);
imageView.setImageBitmap(image);
RelativeLayout rl = (RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.pictureViewer);
rl.addView(imageView, lp);
}
However, when I run the above code the application crashes, saying it has stopped working. "file" is a string denoting the directory where the image from the camera is stored, and I know this part is correct. I can use it (using a different method) to change the wallpaper. It's just displaying it that is causing me trouble. I have tried various methods to simply display the image (dialogs, "drawable"s, bitmap factory, etc) and had the same problem with all of them. I feel like it's something simple that I have missed, since I'm new to Android app development. I'm hoping one of you folks might be able to shed some light on this.
EDIT:
I have decided to try another route, but I am still getting a null pointer exception. Here is all my code:
main class, viewPhoto method:
/* View photo */
public void viewPhoto(String file){
Intent imageView = new Intent(this, PhotoViewer.class);
imageView.putExtra("directory", file);
startActivity(imageView);
}
PhotoViewer class:

import android.graphics.drawable.Drawable;

import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.RelativeLayout;
public class PhotoViewer extends Activity {
public String file;
ImageView image;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle bundle) {
super.onCreate(bundle);
setContentView(R.layout.photo_viewer);
//get file path of image
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
file = extras.getString("directory");
Drawable drawable = Drawable.createFromPath(file);
image.setImageDrawable(drawable);
}
}
photo_viewer.xml (created using the Eclipse tool, so it's not just any xml file)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
The app continues to crash and tell me "unfortunately it stopped working". Here's the logcat of the error:
As always, help is appreciated!

The null pointer exception is because
Drawable drawable = Drawable.createFromPath(file);
image.setImageDrawable(drawable);
is referencing an uninitiated variable (image) which is null
My best guess would be that to eliminate said error you'd want to initiate the variable
ImageView image = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
