android development

i also tried it in the past, but today i finished the installation of the Android SDK and i started to follow the instructions of some tutorials.

Because...
Depending on your environment, the Android emulator might take several minutes to boot fully, so please be patient
... i finally managed to setup the Google USB Driver and test the samle apps at my phone.

At the moment, an interesting class i found is WebView but it took me quite a while to figure what i should do when i read here:
Now open the HelloWebView.java file. At the top of the class, declare a WebView object:
WebView mWebView;
i found the solution here :-)

in HelloWebView.java, you need to add a few imports that aren't mentioned in the docs: 

import android.view.KeyEvent;

import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;

(+2-1) for the new Google Analytics UI

(+2) two features i realy like @ the new GA UI are:
  • the real time live stats
  • switching accounts beeing at the same report
(-1) one thing that realy drives me crazy is... having to scroll horizontaly in my netbook, even if i hide the left sidebar. i think something has to (must) be done about this :-( it's the main reason i still switch back to the old Google Analytics version, to see my reports without losing my temper

don't know if you also have similar problems, i use the UI in the Greek language

update 03 March, 2012 :  at last i've noticed yesterday that the horizontal width was "fixed" and now when i hide the sidebar i don't have to scroll horizontaly
