My bare-bones test app sets the orientation to landscape on start up. It has a layout and layout-port directory. There is a simple layout file in each directory. They contain a textview with text set to either "Landscape" or "Portrait".
In my test I start the app on a tablet tipped into portrait. With this code, I would expect the layout from /layout/my_layout.xml to be used, but /layout-port/my_layout.xml is used instead. I've also tried making a /layout-land directory but still no luck.
From my main activity:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Start app with tablet in portrait orientation
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
int o = this.getRequestedOrientation();
// o is 0, indicating landscape. Display shifted to landscape
setContentView(R.layout.my_layout);
// layout-port/my_layout.xml is loaded. INCORRECT I think
}
/layout/my_layout.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

Change /res/layout/my_layout.xml to /res/layout-land/my_layout.xml
Note: I added the suffix -land
Your have to remove option "orientation" in manifest:
android:configChanges="screenSize|orientation|keyboardHidden"
Because this option says you handle it by yourself...

In android studio when I set fullscreen mode I still can't use all the space in the screen(the space of navigation bar for example).
what should I do?
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/black"
tools:context=".Game">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/start_game"
android:textColor="#color/white" />
the match parent in line 4 and 5 doesn't consider fullscreen mode.
and this is how I make it fullscreen:
getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY | SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN | SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION);
You should change theme in your AndroidManifest.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.project" >
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
...
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar.Fullscreen">
...
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
or change #style/AppTheme to fullscreen mode.
You can do it in java file:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// remove title
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
You can also do it via AndroidMenifest:
<activity android:name=".ActivityName"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"/>
I have an android program with 2 layouts. The first layout is Login. When the login is started first, I have no problem. When I try to change in AndroidManifest from login to splash layout, I got an error. The error is like the title of this posts.
In this android manifest, I change my code from :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
>
<activity
android:name=".Login"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
to :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
>
<activity
android:name=".Splash"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
Here is the layout for login:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".Login">
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Your total is 0"
android:textSize="45dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:id="#+id/tvDisplay"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:text="Add One"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:id="#+id/bAdd"
android:textSize="20dp"/>
<Button
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:text="Substract One"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:id="#+id/bSub"
android:textSize="20dp"/>
And here the layout of splash:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:background="#drawable/sertifikat"
tools:context=".Splash"></LinearLayout>
And structure of my code :
Log in logcat:
Here splash.java
How can I fix my code?
Hey You missed some small things
Here is a small example from your code
on Github that i wrote
This is running example of your code
Other than the ending tags
The <intent-filter>
should only be one
most probably the problem lies in your #drawable
as well as look at these tutorials they are great
http://www.androidhive.info/2013/07/how-to-implement-android-splash-screen-2/
Obviously，you have lost a character '/' in the splash layout at the end.
You are missing the closing tag of your LinearLayout in splash.xml. Add </LinearLayout> to the end of the file. You also might want to consider using an ImageView with android:scaleType="centerCrop" instead of using a LinearLayout with a background. Using android:background will stretch to fit the size of the screen, which can give a different aspect ratio on different devices, whereas an ImageView will scale it to maintain the aspect ratio (depending on the scaleType).
Also, a LinearLayout is not appropriate for a single image, since it is meant to be a container for other views.
For better performance I recommend you to follow this :
http://www.cutehacks.com/blog/2014/01/13/splash-screens
If you use an high end device you won't see a big difference, but for common devices you will see an huge improvement
Hi guys i have this splash screen with the layout main.xml which contains an imageview,
here is the main.xml file
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:src="#drawable/slide11" />
</LinearLayout>
and here is my splashscreen.class file
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
try {
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run()
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),content_activity.class);
startActivity(intent);
Main.this.finish(); } }, 5000);
} catch(Exception e){}
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
} }
when i try to run this in my emulator all works fine, but when i try to run it in a device through debugging mode i don't get the image specified in the imageView, but i get a white screen for the specified amount of time.any help would be much appreciated.
//edit : i double checked the res/drawable folder and i tried primarily using png and also gave a go using .gif none worked in the device. (device micromax a110)
use this instead of your layout.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#drawable/slide11" >
looks like it was because of the size of the image, when reduced worked !!
Use image as layout background :-
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#drawable/slide11"
>
</LinearLayout>
This can be happening due to issue in the manifest file. Here is an example of my manifest file which has 3 activities and 1 splash screen. Hoping that this helps out.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.foodorder">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/Theme.FoodOrder">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"></activity>
<activity android:name=".Final_activity" />
<activity android:name=".Second_activity" />
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:exported="true">

<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>

</application>

I have been reading Google's android tutorial and I got a problem... In the tutorial they explain the XML elements (EditText and Button) and in the end they say how to tun the program to see the button + the text field.
The problem is, that the emulator doesn't show them.. just a black screen.
I even tried adding this line to the onCreate function -
System.out.println("Hello World!");
but still the emulator is showing only black screen..
Here's the .java main file - http://pastebin.com/G5J9YjNe
And the XML files (I mentioned what code is what file) - http://pastebin.com/VnRwAfMW
What should I do?
Thanks a lot for everyone who will help!
System.out.println("Hello World!");
does not print any thing on screen. it can seen on Consol. i tried below code and working fine for me.
// Main Activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.kuchbhi);
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
Layout /.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

I tried your source code and it is working fine for me. see screen
Trying to get an Android 2.2 application to start up with a SurfaceView as the base view with a button placed atop it located near the bottom of the screen. So far, no luck. It crashes every time it attempts to launch. I've checked to make sure that the activity is registered in the manifest.
Here's my java code:
public class Dragable extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
and here's my main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SurfaceView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/surface_home"
>
<Button
android:id="#+id/add_new"
android:text="#string/add_new"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
/>
</SurfaceView>
and my manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />
</manifest>
and here's my error:
11-29 11:58:52.620: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(512): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example/com.example.Dragable}: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.SurfaceView
Can't seem to find anything related doing searches on SO. My appologies if this has been asked before.
Now I see the problem. SurfaceView is not a container, I mean it does not extends ViewGroup, so you can't put a Button inside a SurfaceView. What you can do is wrapping the SurfaceView and the Button within a RelativeLayout.
You are not using any container to place components. Use this and make changes
