I am searching for a listview (or something similar) on android like the menu used in this game:
I want the items to take place horizontally alongside to each other.
Any similar library would help me. For example even a cyclic one will help.

Hello everyone,
I am looking to build an application stack like view. If you press square button on phone ( Oppo, Samsung and pixel ) you see a view like images below. I m trying to do the same thing. Can anyone tell me a bit what this view is? Is this is sdk or I have to create a custom view like this one? Please see the images. Is this a view_pager? I m talking about the central part which swipes right and left.
There are libraries which make it easier to make all kinds of different looks for recyclerviews. I suggest you search for circular recyclerview in google.
Here is my first search which looks suitable to your needs:

I have a GridLayout with some items in it. Nothing special on it.
I just would like to know if I can drag items around and make the other items automatically arrange themselves.
It's like Android does in Jellybean if you move an icon near another icon.
Is that possible in GridLayout?
Thank you!
I don't know if that is possible with a GridLayout, doubt it, but here is a example that looks like a GridLayout and implements Drag and Drop. This should solve your issue.
I feel like there are many projects which could solve this slightly better than the other answer:
See the following question
Within this, the following projects are mentioned:
PagedDragDropGrid
Alternative View Drag and Drop
Google Project and some other 3rd party stuff
This may help you find some stuff other than GridViews as well.
I'm trying to cope with some problem in finding good idea. I would like to make interesting menu like in games on Android (eg. ANngry Birds or here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3g6SdTODY4) In this panda game I supose that first menu are simply 3 color buttons, but what about this sliding menu later with stages description - this same as in angry birds? Telling the truth I have got no idea what object it can be?
I will be glad if someone can tell me that. Or the best to give some tutorials about it. I cant google any.
Well, it seems that this sliding stage description is implemented with some simple layout placed to HorizontalScrollView and some animation applied to the buttons.
It can be your custom view provided with your translation animations and handling its visibility on the click of the default menu button (via onKeyDown()) on Android.

I'm getting started with Android development, and I would like to have an interface similar to that of tweetdeck: there are several workspaces (activities) that are laid out left to right, and the user can switch between them with a horizontal gesture. The same way the Android desktops are switched.
In tweetdeck there are also dots in the titlebar, that indicate on which side and how many workspaces there are.
Is it a standard Android interface, or something custom built? How do I do something like this?
How you go about this is going to be partially dependent on the content you want to present. If there are going to be many heavyweight pages you'll want to look into doing something like a custom AdapterView. If there are only a few fixed pages such as in the stock home screen you can treat it like a scrollable view with some custom logic to handle snapping to pages.
Here's a link to the custom view that implements this in the stock Android launcher. The bits you're interested in will mostly be in onTouchEvent, onInterceptTouchEvent, and computeScroll.

Take a look at ViewFlipper: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ViewFlipper.html
In addition to studying the actual Android code (referenced in another answer), some folks have extracted and isolated the workspace (Launcher2) code into a re-usable view group. You can find the work in github here https://github.com/olibye/AndroViews
I've been using firefox for Android and really like the use of the sidebar to hold shortcut icons and the like. How would I go about creating a similar bar myself with the following attributes:
progressively revealed as I swipe in one direction
progressively hides as I swipe in the other direction
can be a custom width
I can dynamically inject layout in to it or it can hold static content
Is there any open source code available? If not, what approach would I use to create this?
Sound like you're describing a Gallery control. There are some examples in the ApiDemos project here.
The first part can be solved by using a ListView. The second part I don't know yet. I'm looking for such a component as well.
