I'm currently developing an Android app for a client. Problem is their mockup screens contained a UI view that I'm unfamiliar with. In short, I'm not sure what approach/implementation to use.
This is what I'm trying to achieve:
The user taps on SALES TOOLS, and a popup of some sort appears with options leading to other features of the app.
Any suggestions on what implementation I can use?
There are lots of library Available in market

I want to have a scrollabeView (pagingControl) exactly like this image, where I can show 2 pages at the same time or more and swipe between them on Ios And Android.
In iOS you can have a look at the property clipViews. For Android it is currently not possible without adjusting the SDK. Have a look at this ticket: https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TIMOB-25635. It is a feature request to have this kind of layout. Also it features some links that explain how to add it to the sdk.
I fixed this problem by creating this widget com.developatic.pagingControl. I hope that will be useful.
I am working on a social app that takes in text posts from users. Now I want to design an activity that takes input from the user for a new post. I want it to look like the 'create a new post' dialogs in popular apps like google +, Tumblr or facebook android apps. I tried searching the web for the like but couldn't find any. Kindly direct me to some good resource. Any good github project will be really helpful.
You can do two things.
Use a DialogFragment. Here is the documentation and here is an example and some information.
Hide a View that is on top of the layout with a semi transparent background and some padding causing it to look like your picture.
I hope this is enought to push you in the right direction. If you need extra information comment on this answer and I'll help you with it.
Im developing an app and wanted to add some page browsing with those dots to identify your current page like the image below, can someone tell me how is that control called?
Thank you in advance
There is nothing in the Android SDK that provides this "out of the box". It is probably implemented as a LinearLayout holding ImageView widgets, though there are plenty of ways of doing it. If your intention is to use this with a ViewPager, there is an implementation of this UI in the ViewPagerIndicator library and perhaps in other open source libraries as well.
If you really want to see what that app is doing, use uiautomatorviewer to inspect the running UI of that activity and see what widgets are involved.
There is no default Android view for that.
Take a look at this:

I want to develop search bar like bellow image just like showing in Google search bar. How to achieve this. Please some can provide sample code or related links to achieve it.
I assume the actual question here is not how to create a widget (if it is, check the official Android documentation on widgets), but how you can enable a widget to receive text input, which, as far as i am aware, is not possible using standard widget elements.
You will probably have to try the way discussed over here - creating a transparent activity when your widget is tapped.
I would like to create a custom spinner view so that the spinner options are displayed directly below the spinner control, NOT in a modal pop-up. I would like it to be modeless and the functionality would be similar to what you might see in an html select tag. I'm using Android platform 2.1.
Is this possible?
This should be technically possible, but it's not going to be worth it. I know it is a terrible answer, but I don't think it's wise to fight the system on basic UI controls if you don't have to. You would likely be going to a path from which you are unlikely to emerge in victory. It's more than a quick stackoverflow answer.
Are you getting design requirements like this from someone else? If so, please have them read through Android Design if you need to push back. What is the main reason you want this html-like behavior?
