Android Custom Dialog Example

1) Create XML in \res\drawable and named it bgdialog.xml .

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle" >

    <gradient
        android:angle="90"
        android:endColor="#ffffff"
        android:startColor="#ffffff" />

    <padding
        android:bottom="10dp"
        android:left="10dp"
        android:right="10dp"
        android:top="10dp" />

    <stroke
        android:width="2dp"
        android:color="#000000" />

    <corners android:radius="10dp" />

</shape>


2) In main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tvSearchDialog"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:text="Search Dialog..."
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btnDialog"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_below="@+id/tvSearchDialog"
        android:text="Show Dialog" />

</RelativeLayout>


3) Create XML in \res\drawable and named it customdialog.xml.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:background="@drawable/bgdialog"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
        android:text="Custom Dialog"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
        android:textColor="#000000" />

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/etsearch"
        android:layout_width="250dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/tv"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_margin="10dp" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btnsearch"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/btncancel"
        android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/btncancel"
        android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/etsearch"
        android:layout_marginLeft="27dp"
        android:text=" Search " />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btncancel"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/etsearch"
        android:layout_marginLeft="20dip"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/btnsearch"
        android:text=" Cancel " />

</RelativeLayout>


4) Open your main activity. In my case,activity name is AndroidCustomDialogActivity.java file

package com.dhruv;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.TextUtils;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.view.Window;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class AndroidCustomDialogActivity extends Activity implements
        OnClickListener {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    EditText etSearch;
    Button btn, btnSearch, btnCancel;
    Dialog dialog;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnDialog);
        btn.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        switch (v.getId()) {
        case R.id.btnDialog:
            showCustomDialog();
            break;
        case R.id.btnsearch:
            String search = etSearch.getText().toString().trim();
            if (TextUtils.isEmpty(search)) {
                Toast.makeText(AndroidCustomDialogActivity.this,
                        "Searching for Nothing", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            } else {
                Toast.makeText(AndroidCustomDialogActivity.this,
                        "Searching for " + search, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }

            dialog.dismiss();
            break;
        case R.id.btncancel:
            dialog.dismiss();
            break;
        default:
            break;
        }
    }

    protected void showCustomDialog() {

        dialog = new Dialog(AndroidCustomDialogActivity.this,
                android.R.style.Theme_Translucent);
        dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

        dialog.setCancelable(true);
        dialog.setContentView(R.layout.customdialog);

        etSearch = (EditText) dialog.findViewById(R.id.etsearch);
        btnSearch = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btnsearch);
        btnCancel = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btncancel);

        btnSearch.setOnClickListener(this);
        btnCancel.setOnClickListener(this);

        dialog.show();
    }
}

Fragment: App loads with white screen for 3 secs before showing proper UI

Issue: 1) When my application start then white/black screen appears, and then main UI is display.  2) Before my fragment load in activity black/white screen appears for 3/4 seconds and then fragment load. Solution: To fix this nasty problem, update the /res/values/styles.xml to include <item name="android:windowDisablePreview">true</item> or <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/black</item> for example : <!-- Application theme. -->  <style name="AppTheme" parent="AppBaseTheme">  <!-- All customizations that are NOT specific to a particular API-level can go here. -->  <item name="android:windowDisablePreview">true</item>  <!-- <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/black</item> -->  </style>

Error: Retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name after upgrading to AppCompat v23

My project is going on easily but suddenly what I found below bugs when developing an app. I know it's minor bug but it may be useful to anyone. Here is the error: Error:(2) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Inverse'. Error:(2) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Widget.Material.Button.Colored'. Solution: This happens because after updates your android studio uses API 23 by default. 1) First check that your compile SDK version must match the support library's major version. If you are using version 23 of the support library, you need to compile against version 23 of the Android SDK. Alternatively you can continue compiling against version 22 of the Android SDK by switching to the latest support library v22.   2) Go to your project structure -> Properties -> and change Build tool version to...

Android: Check whether activity is in stack or not.

Solution There's possibility to check current tasks and their stack using ActivityManager . So, to determine if an activity is the last one: request android.permission.GET_TASKS permissions in the manifest. Use the following code: ActivityManager mngr = (ActivityManager) getSystemService( ACTIVITY_SERVICE );  List<ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo> taskList = mngr.getRunningTasks(10); if(taskList.get(0).numActivities == 1 && taskList.get(0).topActivity.getClassName().equals(this.getClass().getName())) {             Log.i(TAG, "This is last activity in the stack");  }
