Set TextSize programatically to Android TextView

As you probably know you should set TextSizes in sp units (other dimensions in dp). It is scale-independent pixels. 

So, you should set in your dimens file 

   

dimen name="month">32sp

Programatically you can set this textsize by 

    textview_name.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_PX,         getResources().getDimension(R.dimen.month));

Other combination incorrect.

logcat doesn't show any error/debug info huawei

I've bought huawei for testing purposes. Its perfect for its price but I can't see any error details on logcat, usb debugging seems impossible. I trying restart eclipse/adb server/looking at the ddms but nothing helps.No errors, no Log info, no debug. I have  huawei y300,  android 4.1, but it seems all huwei has the same 'feature'.

Solution is:

Dial

*#*#2846579#*#*

and you will see a hidden menu. Go ProjectMenu / Background Setting / Log setting and define the log availability (log swith) and level (log level setting).

And then make sure you restart your phone.

Please note this probably only applies to Huawei phones.

Works as a charm...

Add AdMob AdView to PreferenceActivity

Simple solution to add AdMob advert to Live Wallpaper settings screen is create new type which will show AdMob AdView and then include it into PreferenceScreen.

1) Add new type AdmobPreference:

public class AdmobPreference extends Preference
{
    public AdmobPreference(Context context) {
        super(context, null);
    }

    public AdmobPreference(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    @Override
    protected View onCreateView(ViewGroup parent) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.admob_preference, null);
    }
}

2) Add admob_preference.xml to res/layout:

3) Now you can use your type within PreferenceScreen.

Love letter application

I've just uploaded my application 'Love letters' to market.
My intention was creating an application for Valentine's Day which allows you send Valentine cards to your friends. No internet connection is needed if you just send MMS.
Also application allows to share picure and congratulation to your friends via our favourite app like FaceBook, twitter, flickr. You can also set images as wallpaper.
