Do I need to do anything to gracefully clean up the view and close the thread? Most of the samples I'...

It plays the file, and I want a m:s timer, so the user can see how far into the file they are (e.g. "04:56"). I'm probably missing the obvious, but what's th...

The problem is, that I want to fill my hint list (see picture below) with data, which I will receive via a HTTP/JSON query. So I'm not sure if using a ContentProvider as used in the above ex...

The Layout builder in Eclipse did not register the changes and either broke (showed nothing) or didn't apply styles at all. After running the app in the emulator, styles are correctly applied. So is there ...

So I have a webview I'd like to display as a dialog. I'd like the webview to fill the entire screen, except for a button below it that I'd like to stay at the bottom of the dialog regardless of how much content is in the webview. Currently my webview fills up the dialog just enough to push the button off the screen. I'm sure this is some...
