I have searched for references on this issue but all of my attempts have been unsucessful so far. I would like to know to what extent does Android supports the OMA DRM specification?

Hi, I'm creating a ListActivity. In each list item I have a View I've created which contains a RatingBar and an EditText. In the screenshot at the bottom, you can see the virtual keyboard contains a returnline key and no "Done" key. I would like to specify a different style of keyboard to use (and hopefully retain the spell checking ...
The default behavior of ExpandableListView is to collapse a group when its header is clicked. Is it possible to prevent this from happening? I've tried: Setting OnTouchListener on the list. This interferes with scrolling. Setting an OnGroupClickListener on the list (in onCreate()). This works for all clicks after the first. Has a...
I'm using the Android Emulator during my Android application development. Unfortunately I think my computer is a bit slow so the emulator get some kind of timeout before several processes running in the emulator respond (at least that is what I think happen according to other threads here on stackoverflow).

I've tried to find any info on that subject; can't find anything. Strikes me as odd, since JDO sounds like the kind of thing smartphones should be very good at doing. Do you know if JDO is possible at all on Android devices, natively, or with external apps/libraries? ...

In Android 1.6 and higher, this menu XML inflates and runs fine. But when run in 1.5 I get an error about a resource not found. I find that when I remove the @drawable/menu_preferences from the XML in 1.5 it works fine. Is there a 1.5 work around I can do to get the image to work? EDIT: The image is in the drawable-mdpi folder. <menu...
I'd like to display the favicon of the website I am accessing via the android.webkit.WebView. I've tried two ways to get it: 1) WebViewClient.onPageStarted() method has a favicon parameter that is always null. 2) WebChromeClient.onReceivedIcon() method is never called. 3) Called WebView.getFavicon() in onPageStarted() and onPageFinis...
The automatic generation of the R class does not work anymore. I have tried Project -> Clean...

I have never used JUnit before, and now I'm trying to set it up on an Android project. My project under test is fairly complex, including some JNI, but my test project, at the moment, is completely trivial. I have found many examples (that look totally different) online of how to make a test project, but it seems that no matter which o...
