I have implemented the SlidingMenu successfully.
What my requirement is that I have a menu in the form of listview .
Now few of the list items have one more component (e.g. status) which needs to be updated dynamically everytime the user opens the menu.
I'm not able to achieve this.
Please help me .
You have to override the method which is called when the slider is opened. There you have to add the code to update your list data.

I am having trouble remembering what kind of Android component is being used to make the selected list item menu in their Gmail app. That is, when I open the app and see the list of emails in the inbox, I can long-press one of the items, and some sort of list shows up in the top of the screen, sort of like a context menu, with actions I can perform on the selected item(s). I would like to replicate similar functionality in one of my own apps. If I recall correctly there is a way of doing this using some standard Android UI component, but I'm having trouble finding what that is. Any pointers?
You're looking for a contextual actions bar. Details on how to create one are stored under the menu section of the documentation as they relate to action items.
I am trying to integrate Chrome Custom Tabs in my Android App. Here is the requirement where I am stuck:
1. List of pdfs being shown in GridView. The user when clicks on any pdf will be opened on custom tabs. Here I will pass the position of item in GridView.
2. This position will be used for selection. There will be a SELECT action on custom tab. When the user clicks on SELECT, the custom tab should close passing the position back to the activity so that I can mark that item in GridView selected.
Now the problem is in closing the Custom Tab and passing the data back to activity. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
There is no such support currently to close chrome custom tab programatically.
But you can close it by starting your previous activity from where you launched chrome custom tab.
For this, set your activity launchMode as "singleTask" and then start your activity with FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP when ACTION button is clicked.
Then chrome custom tab will be automatically closed and the previous activity will be shown from where chrome custom tab was opened.
You can check details from here: How to close chrome custom tabs .
I am working on an application that have use internet.
What i want to do if connection available than option menu showing if not than hide specific menu. & when internet available application show all menu item.
You can try this. removeItem
You just have to pass an Id of your menu item that wants to hide. Add item again whenever you want.
I wanted to create an options menu as seen in this image: http://i.imgur.com/Mf0PSy8.png
But the problem is, the only way that I found to create this type of menu is by calling onCreateContextMenu method and I don't want it to only appear when user long-press an item.
I want it, for example, to show up when user click a specific button linked to a function.
How can I do it?
You can explicitly show the option/context menu programmatically by calling Activity.openOptionsMenu() / Activity.openContextMenu(View view).

I have a problem, I need to create menu items but I want the user to be able to do that through a GUI where he/she enters the name of the menu item in an edit text and clicks a button to create it. How do I go about this. I will appreciate the help!
Whether you want to handle menu on user view ie menu as a button not menu key on emulator or device then you can treat menu as general view. you have to handle onclicklistener. in onclick() method create the view that you wan to display to the user.
Donot forget to vote the response if it is helpful for you.
