i am a beginner programmer of Android, when i create an App and install it on my real phone or other phones it works very slowly (i dont talk about emulator).
- The size of file is only 3 MB
- This happens to all applications that i make
- I cleaned the cache and the project before building
the devices that i installed the application on : HTC630, Samsung galexy S7, Samsung Duos j1.
any idea ?

Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putString("user",name.getText().toString());
txtint.putExtras(b);

Finally i solved the problem.. i had a mistake in resize of background (to fit screens).

I am a beginner to android. I want to slide a slidebar in a horizontal linear layout but when I run the code, the application ends giving error FallingBall keeps stopping

My java file is like this:
package com.example.fallingball;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageButton;
import android.widget.ImageView;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ImageView s = findViewById(R.id.slideBar);
float x = s.getX();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
}
void hitLeft(View view){
x--;
s.setX(30);
}
void hitRight(View view){
x++;
s.setX(40);
}
}
Note: leftBut and rightBut are two Image button and I have copied the images to the drawable folder so if you are trying this code on your system, make sure you adjust this else it will show you Image not found or so...
In MainActivity.java you should initialize your value into onCreate() method
ImageView s;
float x;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
s = findViewById(R.id.slideBar);
x = s.getX();
}
Well, I found my own mistake. The thing what hossein answered earlier was right but the application was still crashing. Actually the problem was coming that I was triggering the methods hitLeft and hitRight which were not initialized as public. That was the mistake and now it is working alright...
I'm developing an app for users to share their books. To achieve this, I'm getting different data about the book from the user. The problem is, horizontal autoscrolling of all EditTexts are working until Dialog has been shown and dismissed. Once a dialog has been dismissed on the fragment, horizontal autoscrolling of the EditText's on this layout won't work.
I added:
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
to parent layout of the edittext but doesn't work.
Also to make sure that autoscrolling is enabled I've added:
android:scrollHorizontally="true"
But none of above helped.
Here is XML code of the fragment layout.

UI Design and Dialog
In the image above, there are EditTexts Name Of Book and Name of Author. Before showing a dialog, both of them work like a charm. When writing something, the cursor automatically scrolls to the end. Once Dialog has been shown and dismissed, none of them works properly, and the cursor stays at the end of the EditText but still the characters are being written continues in the hidden part.
In this UI it cannot be seen because of the issue, but I've written.

But only Roses are red, violets are blue, Stac can be seen.
Weird buggy layout UI image
Please, help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance.
As a solution, I don't know the underlying reason, but the problem solved once I removed Butterknife library from my project.
**I am making some app and cant see a button that I have created (this is when running the app on my phone) ,but if I run it on the emulator I can see everything - the button that I can't see on my phone is the clicked button (its id is "startBtn").
**
Here is my layout :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/activity_main"
android:background="#798"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="unleashed.myprefs.MainActivity">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="90dp"
android:text="hello"
android:background="#ff14"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/startBtn"
android:text="start"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="addOne"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/resetBtn"
android:text="restart"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="restart"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
And this is my main activity
package unleashed.myprefs;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button restartNums;
SharedPreferences prefs;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
prefs = getSharedPreferences("main", MODE_PRIVATE);
}
private int getNum(){
return prefs.getInt("num",1);
}
private void setNum(int num){ // put the number into my shared preference
prefs.edit().putInt("num", num).apply();
}
public void addOne(View v) { //adding number to the starting button
int num = getNum();
((Button)v).setText("Clicked " + num);
setNum(num + 1);
}
public void restart(View v){
restartNums = (Button) findViewById(R.id.startBtn);
prefs.edit().remove("num").apply();
restartNums.callOnClick();
}
}
I will appreciate any help.
AlignParentEnd should be used in ResetButton.( Not sure )
(Alternative) If you trying to have two buttons in the same row, you can try this layout..
`
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="90dp"
android:text="hello"
android:background="#ff14"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation = "horizontal"
android:weightsum="2"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView">
<Button
android:id="#+id/startBtn"
android:text="start"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="addOne"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/resetBtn"
android:text="restart"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"

I am making a simple app in which context view changes and then a toast message is displayed as input given by user. I don't understand why the app keeps on crashing when changing the context view.
Also Android studio gives this warning:
Method "Toaster" is missing in "FirstActivity" or has incorrect signature.

MainScreen.java:
package com.example.nautatvanavlakha.abcd;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainScreen extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_screen);
}
public void toaster(View view){
EditText toast = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.toastText);
String final_toast = toast.getText().toString();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), final_toast, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
EDIT: As suggested, I moved the toaser function to FirstActivity.Java and deleted the MainScreen.java file as it becomes pointless to keep it. But the major problem is when I press the button (id named) the app keeps stopping.
EDIT2: I found that setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_screen) in FirstActivity.Java needs to be above this code
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.welcome);
textView.setText("Hi " + owner_string + ".");
Log.d(TAG,"owner name is set");
so that Activity has access to all the layout components. Thanks solved :)
You replaced the content view in the first activity with a layout that include the onClick attribute, but you have no public void toaster(View view) method there.
So, either don't use setContentView a second time, or implement that method on both Activities.
The recommended way to replace the view is Fragments, by the way
This is a wrong way to change the contents of your Activity, The main problem here is that you have onClick attribute set to "toaster", And you don't have a function called "toaster" in your FirstActivity.
Beside that, The MainScreen Activity in your code will never be used.
So, Your problem is that you set the FirstActivity contents to "activity_main_screen.xml", And FirstActivity doesn't have "toaster" method in it, When you change the context, the Activity will try to find toaster method and the app will crash because the method doesn't exist in FirstActivity.
You can solve this problem by making a method called "toaster" inside FirstActivity, But
This is a very bad practice, You can use Fragments instead, Or you can use Intent to move to another activity.
Some useful links about Fragments:
https://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html

Why should I use fragment in Android?
I am building a very simple currency converter app for a course I am doing.
The App has a decimal Edit text box where you enter the amount and when you press the button it will convert the amount from £ sterling to U.S dollars and gives the user the difference in a Toast message.
I need help with the java code for the currency conversion part , if anyone can help that will be much appreciated.
