I wanna implement pull to refresh event with Android's Gallery view like IOS application name "500px" how to do this, or I should use HorizontalScrollView instead of Gallery ?
Update
Chris Banes Pull-to-refresh library now implements horizontal pull-to-refresh.
end Update
I'm not aware of any components with horizontal pull-to-refresh available on github or anywhere googleable.
To create your own component, have a look at these pull-to-refresh components and their source code as a starting point. Just check their licenses before you implement anything:
Pull To Refresh for Android by Johan Nilsson. The component extends ListView directly which makes the source straightforward to understand if you've worked with Android's ListView before.
Android-PullToRefresh by Chris Banes. It includes many features including pull-up-to-get-older and a double pull-up pull-down state. This is perhaps not the right starting point IMHO if you want to implement only pull-to-refresh since it's so comprehensive, but can be of interest if you want to build something really feature-rich.

I want to develop a layout with a very simple ImageView and a Listview binded in a Relativelayout . Now for a better user experience I want to delete the Image view by swiping it left or right same like what is implemented in android Gmail app to delete emails.
Implementing it on a listview item is very simple and there are many tuts and sample codes are available over the internet including the official Google I/O talk on animation and explained in a very good way by Chet Hasse here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCHNAi9kJI4
but I don't require to implement it on the listview items insted I want to implement it in more generic way. In my case I want the same behaviour for my ImageView item as one view and ListView another . Like shown below
As soon as the ImageView item is deleted the whole ListView should smoothly come on the top.
I have tried many way to implement the same without any success.
Suggest me the approach or some samples to do this which is supported in Gingerbread and above android OS.
You can use this code:
https://github.com/romannurik/Android-SwipeToDismiss/blob/master/src/com/example/android/swipedismiss/SwipeDismissTouchListener.java
As described in readme this code works for android 14+.
You can use the NineOldAndroids library to support old versions of Android, or use the Jake Wharton's port:

I looked around and found this helpful.
https://github.com/nhaarman/ListViewAnimations
I implemented a custom ViewGroup that takes one child and allows you to drag/fling it to the left with a callback once the swipe is complete. My intention was for it to work just like in a RecyclerView. Works well in a LinearLayout with animateLayoutChanges=true and setting the visibility to GONE in the callback.

All you need is this library: https://github.com/timroes/EnhancedListView
I'm looking to try and implement this style pattern into my application:
http://www.androidpatterns.com/uap_pattern/carousel
But I am having trouble in finding an existing library or solution to it. Does anybody know of any libraries that I could use or how I would go about implementing this?
So far, Ive found this:
http://www.inter-fuser.com/2010/02/android-coverflow-widget-v2.html
but it isn't quite what I want as it would be nice if it was hosted inside of a ViewPager so I can have buttons etc inside the view.
You might try twoway-view, an implementation of an AdapterView (similar to ListView/GridView) that supports horizontal scrolling.
In this case, you'd use it more like a ListView rather than a ViewPager, so each element would be a separate item layout, rather than Fragment.
One example of where twoway-view is in use right now is the latest Firefox for Android nightly as discussed on the announcement post, which contains some screenshots of it in use:
I wanted to ask can I implement pull-down refresh option on a linear layout control, I have read this & other examples also but they all are for "ListView" control.
#MH
Have a look at Chris Banes' pull-to-refresh implementation, which is available for several views, including ListView, GridView, ScrollView and WebView. You might be able to simple use the ScrollView version and wrap that around your LinearLayout. Alternatively it should be relatively easy to implement your own using the building blocks in that library.
This Worked for me.
I'm currently looking for a possibility to implement a pull to refresh GridView.
Does anybody have a clue if there's a complete custom view like the one in How to implement android pull to refresh
Chris Banes released a library recently based on Johan Nilsson's library that implements a PullToRefreshGridView widget. I have tried it and it perfectly works!
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.
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Launcher2/+/master/src/com/android/launcher2/Workspace.java
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
