Some home launchers, like Samsung, Sony, HTC, Nova Launcher etc., support badge counters. How can I implement badge counters for all devices that support it?
1st of all badge view is not any launcher or device specific .If you want to implement Badge View in Android 1st you have to create custom class for badge view

And wherever you want badge view just initialize and use it
BadgeView badge;
I'm working on a project which needs me to display some dynamic texts based on users' selection on a button.
I know how to do the text display part, but I was stuck on how I can display different text properly on a fixed size button.
For example: "Apple" and "I have an Apple". How can I achieve the result that when displaying "Apple", the text size will be bigger and fit the button, and when "I have an Apple" the text will be smaller and may become three lines?
Thank you!
Android 8.0 supports Autosizing TextViews so you just have to specify android:autoSizeTextType="uniform". For older versions, you can use android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView with app:autoSizeTextType="uniform".
By chance, it also works for buttons and for older versions just use android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatButton instead.
Hope this helped.
Take a look at this question Auto Scale TextView Text to Fit within Bounds. The same technique should apply to a button.
(yes, it is much more complicated than it seems like it should be.)
Style.xml:
<style name="Widget.Button.CustomStyle" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.Button">
<item name="android:minHeight">50dp</item>
<item name="android:maxWidth">300dp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
<item name="backgroundTint">#color/white</item>
<item name="cornerRadius">25dp</item>
<item name="autoSizeTextType">uniform</item>
<item name="autoSizeMinTextSize">10sp</item>
<item name="autoSizeMaxTextSize">16sp</item>
<item name="autoSizeStepGranularity">2sp</item>
<item name="android:maxLines">1</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="android:insetTop">0dp</item>
<item name="android:insetBottom">0dp</item>
<item name="android:lineSpacingExtra">4sp</item>
<item name="android:gravity">center</item>
</style>
Usage:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
android:id="#+id/blah"
style="#style/Widget.Button.CustomStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
android:text="Your long text, to the infinity and beyond!!! Why not :)" />
Result:

I know this question is a few years old, but I want to add a full solution for future reference.
This code is based on AutoFitTextView and has been adapted for Buttons. Specifically it also considers the text width to avoid word-breaks when resizing.

Then add the needed attributes in
values/attrs.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<declare-styleable name="AutofitButton">
<!-- Minimum size of the text. -->
<attr name="minTextSize" format="dimension" />
<!-- Amount of precision used to calculate the correct text size to fit within its
bounds. Lower precision is more precise and takes more time. -->
<attr name="precision" format="float" />
<!-- Defines whether to automatically resize text to fit to the view's bounds. -->
<attr name="sizeToFit" format="boolean" />
</declare-styleable>
<!-- Your other attributes -->
</resources>
And you're done! You can now use the AutoSizeTextButton class.
<your.package.name.AutoSizeTextButton
android:layout_width="..."
android:layout_height="..."
android:maxLines="2" />
And be sure to add the android:maxLines attribute with a value larger than 0, otherwise it won't do anything!
Additional Notes:
The text is shrunken until the longest word fits into the button without wrapping (or the minimum size is reached). The words have to be seperated by either a normal space, or a hyphen. This algorithm also considers a SOFT HYPHEN or a ZERO WIDTH SPACE a word seperator, however I would strongly advise to test them before using them, because the Android Text Engine used in buttons ignores these characters (at least in API 19), which could lead to weird word-wraps.
It's better you use this library named AutoScaleTextView
https://bitbucket.org/ankri/autoscaletextview
This will definitely help you to achieve your desired task.
There is no built-in way of doing this, you will need to create/use a custom view that adapts the inner text to its bounds. Don't worry, this is not the first time its been asked, see the Custom View provided at Auto Scale TextView Text to Fit within Bounds to get the working code.
if any one is looking on how to disable auto text size, it can be done by
<TextView
app:autoSizeTextType="none" <!-- disabled -->
adding the above line to your text view
Is it possible to set an Icon in ActionBar through setIcon method (that accept drawable or Resource id) with a "Text" using AwesomeFont?
Should I create a Drawable or something like that? In Drawable what should I Create?
EDIT
public class AwesomeTextView extends TextView {
private static Typeface fontAwesome;
public AwesomeTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
if (fontAwesome == null) {
fontAwesome = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf");
}
setTypeface(fontAwesome);
}
}
So I had created an AwesomeTextView that uses font-awesome, Is there a way to make an AwesomeTextView as drawable?
I made a repo to easily add font awesome icons to your android project
https://github.com/bperin/FontAwesomeAndroid
If you're trying to add these in an action bar you'll probably need to make a custom layout via XML
Yes, you need to create a Drawable and draw the icon. You could take a look at the TextDrawable project on github. You can modify it such that Font-Awesome is used as the typeface.
Make sure that you bundle the font along with the project.
Here's a complete guide on how to set Icon with FontAwesome with setIcon() method.
http://blog.incognitech.in/font-awesome-in-android
UPDATE:
FontManager Class
public class FontAwesomeManager {
public static final String ROOT = "fonts/";
public static final String FONTAWESOME = ROOT + "fontawesome-webfont.ttf";
public static Typeface getTypeface(Context context, String font) {
return Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), font);
}
}

}
Now what is happening is that when the updateWalls() method is called, the tiles are placed within the View and comes up like this:
Now when I uncomment out the updateCellularArray() method and comment out the updateWalls() the program force closes and throws a NullPointerException. After some debugging I figured out that when the updateCellular array method is called, the mTileGrid array in the TileView class is not initialized, but it is when updateWalls() is called. I am completely baffled as to why this is happening. It doesn't matter if i replace the for loop with a simple setTile(GREEN_STAR, 3, 3); it still force closes.
Here is the TileView class I am using (again this is the same one in the Snake sample that comes with the Android SDK):

Sorry for posting all this code. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much,

EDIT: simplified GameView class
EDIT 2: Alright after modifying the updateCellularArray() method to the following:
private void updateCellularArray() {
for (int x = 0; x < mXTileCount; x++) {
setTile(GREEN_STAR, 12, 12);
}
}
It finally placed the tile where I wanted it to...
I'm starting to wonder if it has something to do with the RefreshHandler. Possibly when the RedrawHandler's sleep method is called in the update method of the GameView class. I'm not quite sure how it works so I am going to try playing around with it and see what I can come up with.
I forgot to instantiate the mLastMove variable. Modifying the declaration to:
private long mLastMove = System.currentTimeMillis();
fixed the problem.
Also it seems that the method used with the RefreshHandler, although clever, is outdated? Found that out with this post:
