I have an application that I just would like to use in portrait mode, so I have defined android:screenOrientation="portrait" in the manifest XML. This works OK for the HTC magic phone (and prevents orientation changes on other phones as well).
But I have a problem with the HTC G1 phone as i open the hardware qwerty keyboard (not the virtual keyboard). My activity stays in portrait mode, but seems to get restarted and loses all its states. This does not happen with the hero version.
My application is quite big so I don't want it to restart and lose all its states when the keyboard is opened. Any idea on how I can prevent that?

Android - Using Intent in an application to show another activity
In my Android application, I have two activity classes. I have a button on the first one and I want to show the second when it is clicked, but I get an error. Here are the classes:
public class FirstActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Button orderButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.order);
orderButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, OrderScreen.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
} } public class OrderScreen extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.order);
Button orderButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.end);
orderButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
finish();
}
});
} } Android - Get 'out of memory' error when tries to go back and re-launch 2nd activity
I have a list view with a couple image buttons on each row. When you click the list row, it launches a new activity. If you review some of my other posts, I have had to build my own tabs because of an issue w/ the camera layout. The activity that gets launched for result is a map. If I click on my button to launch the image preview (load an image off the sd card) the application returns from the activity back to the listview activity to the result handler to relaunch my new activity which is nothing more than an image widget.
So here is the issue, the image preview on the list view is being done w/ the cursor & listadapter. This makes it pretty simple, but I am not sure how I can put a resized (i.e. smaller bit size not pixel) image as the src for the imgbutton on the fly. So I just resized the image that came off the phone camera.
The issue is that I get an out of memory error when it tries to go back and re-launch the 2nd activity.
** My question : is there a way I can build the list adapter easily row by row, where I can resize on the fly (bit wise)? - this would be preferable as I also need to make some changes to the properties of the widgets/elements in each row as I am unable to select a row w/ touch screen b/c of focus issue. (I can use roller ball).
** I know I can do an out of band resize and save of my image, but that is not really what I want to do, but some sample code for that would be nice if that is your suggestion.
As soon as I disabled the image on the listview it worked fine again.
FYI : This is how I was doing it :
Where R.id.imagefilename is a ButtonImage

Android - Activity restart on rotation Android
In my Android application, when I rotate the device (slide out the keyboard) then my activity is restarted (onCreate is called). Now, this is probably how it's supposed to be, but I do a lot of initial setting up in the onCreate method, so I need either:
1. Put all the initial setting up in another function so it's not all lost on device rotation or
2. Make it so onCreate is not called again and the layout just adjusts or
3. Limit the app to just portrait so that onCreate is not called.
