IDE :: Preload A Splash Screen On Android
Oct 31, 2011
I've read all threads here already about this subject. For most AdobeAir projects for Android, no matter what size, it could take up to 20 sec to load the app, and while it loads, all you see is a black screen. As there's no support for a Default.png like there is for iPhone, we have to use a preloader.
I've only found one for Flex, which is no good to me as I'm using Flash Pro 5.5 (IDE). I've tried doing some simple preload-a-swf-preloader but it just loads it to 100% before showing anything anyway. Anyone here that can share a script of a simple preloader for Flash CS5.5? I know that to reduce the loading time and show a splash screen on android we need to make a very small swf that will contain the loading screen image, and that same swf will also preload the maingame.swf (but can that be done? Appstore don't like code in more than one swf) into it. My tries have failed.

Ive just finished a flash web site that ive used a lot of XML for loading my images from thumbnails. Its works great.
Except it takes maybe 3-4 minutes to load. I think whats happening is its loading all the images in that XML file before it even shows the first thumbnail, so thats like 2MB its loading.
Is there a way to preload all of the xml files at the start on my Flash splash page?
Here is the link to what im explaining.

I have created a shooting game and I am struggling to create a splash screen at the beginning informing the user of the controls with a button to start the game, which removes the splash screen. I am trying to add the splash screen in the main timeline using addChild event. I can get the splash screen to appear on the game and remove it when the playgame button is pressed, but this prevents all the other event listeners so I am not able to fire or move the ship.
In the splash screen I have the code :
Play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame)
function playgame(e:Event):void{Play_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playgame)
parent.removeChild(this); }
and in the main timeline I have :
addChild(splashscreen);

I have implemented an Augmented Reality application on Adobe Air for Android. When I publish my app on the android mobile phone (Nexus One) the 3D models that I have created don't appear on the screen.On flash CS5 it is working fine.I have used Away3DLite engine and I have imported a 3D collada object.I have also tried to publish some projects that I found online and I checked if the the 3D model appears on the screen but it doesn't show it either. how the 3D Models that I have imported in my project using Away3DLite can be visible when I publish the application on the android phone. Some extra stuff be usefull: I'm using GPU rendering.A also using a combination of the following softwares in order to create my AR application:
FLARToolkit
FLARManager
Away3DLite
I have created one 3D Model on 3DS MAX and another one on Maya 2010.

I am working on a presentation that will be shown in full screen mode. And have 2 things I need help with... well I'm sure I have more but right now I'm dealing with these two ; ) At one section I have a video that plays in the background. Right now it takes a bit to load, so there is just the color of the stage, then the video plays. Is there a way I can preload the video so it will be ready to play instantly? Or do I need to just put an image behind the video?
Secondly, when I test the presentation now, when ever it get to the section with the video, it breaks my file. Buttons don't work. I'll get error messages. How can I get this to stop happening?

I am building a book application in Flash Professional CS5.5 to be released on tablet devices and I am trying to understand the best structure for loading the application. For iOS devices I know I can include the default.png, but how can accomplish a similar task for Android? The book application is also going to be large as it includes a lot of assets and animations, is there a good way to show that this is loading on both platforms?
One thing I was trying was a loading screen where the main application was actually a loading system that would import the compiled SWF book, but further research shows that it won't work for iOS devices.

Unable to correctly perform the simplest task - fit image to screen. Pictures loads from the gallery, it is displays, but having tried many ways to understand that there are some oddities.I use Flex ViewNavigatorApplication without ActionBar and full screen. Landscape screen orientation. The best option to accommodate the maximum size of image. All images have a size equal proportions of 3264 x 2448.
Do this:
protected var roll:CameraRoll;
protected var loader:Loader;
if(CameraRoll.supportsBrowseForImage && !roll)[code]............

I'm developing an app that displays swf's inside a webview. My problem (ICS 4.0.3 only) , is that whenever I click the full screen button inside the swf the app displays a black screen for a couple of seconds and then crashes.I've tested the same code with lower api's (10) and it works fine.
Facts:
1- ICS 4.0.3 - SWF in full screen inside webview crashes.
2- ICS 4.0.3 - SWF in full screen inside regular browser works.

Edit: I made a demo apk, so you can understand what I mean: [URL]
For my application, I want a kind of "Super Power Point", or a keynote (the commercial team will present the product to their customers) using all the Android goodness, gestures, etc... on an Android tablet. As Honeycomb is not yet ready and because we need it before march, we choose some random Froyo Tablet (Archos 101), but my issue is for every tablet/phone I tried.
I made a really great application, but for some animations during the presentation, the customer wanted to use flash animations. Because I couldn't code animations (sort of little movies/ animated graphics) that easily in Android and the lack of time, that seemed to be a good idea.
So, after some search on the Web, I used webview and this code:
WebView mWebView1 = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview1);
mWebView1.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView1.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
mWebView1.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/graph_01.swf");
This work pretty well, but on every device I tried (Archos 101, Nexus One, Nexus S, Galaxy S, Xperia, Desire, HTC Hero, and really more) every activity with a webview blink, a few milliseconds of black screen, then the animation finally appear.
PS: My layout is quite simple too:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
[Code]....
I cannot imagine I am the only one to face this issue.

I am interested in developing AIR apps for Android tablets (Xoom, Transformer, Playbook, Iconia, Galaxy Tab, et cetera). I expect to encounter different pixel densities ("information densities" as the Flash documentation says).
The different densities on the screens between tablets creates a situation in which objects on the screen can have very different sizes and appearances even if the screen resolutions are identical.
The Android developer information from Google recommends creating different layouts and providing different graphic assets for different densities.
I don't see a way to do this in Flash.
The marketing material I initially saw on Flash Pro 5.5 seemed to suggest that Flash Pro 5.5 supports multiple screens across devices (there was a big ampersand in the advertisement).
Does Flash Pro 5.5 address the variations in screen densities for Android tablets? If so, what does it require the developer to do in order to achieve this? (Point me to specific documentation if possible.)

I made a little trivia game that loads questions from an xml file. The problem is, if you leave the app and come back to it, it starts you back at the start screen again. Is there anyway to overwrite this, or is it the same as refreshing a browser page with a Flash animation on it, it'll always keep restarting?

Let me first state that I am no programmer, so this may seem like a stupid question. I have done all kinds of searching on this question, and answers seem far-and-wide, and have only left me more confused. I am currently accepting bids for the development of an Android app version of our graphic novel: [URL] One of the issues/problems from my requirements document that has been raised more than once by bidders is about the Flash animation [URL] that I want to be used in the title screen, and how that will be implemented in the app. The initial programmer that I was working with had real problems with and was never able to get it to work. I know that in order to use the swf file as-is, Flash needs to be installed on the devices, and that is not an Android standard. So I want to know what options there are to be able to include this.
A couple bidders have suggested that the animation be converted to video. And although they claim that they could still make it work correctly, I worry about losing the looping that is built into the animation. Can the animation be converted to or re-created with Java? Should I be looking into using FLash Builder and/or Adobe AIR? We will eventually be porting this app for Apple iPads as well, so if there is an option that woks for both Android and iOS, that would be better.

I recently discovered that the MouseEvents in my Flash animations aren't working on touch screen Android tablets. Is there some extra code that I need to add to make this work? There's an example at [URL]. My other issue is more of a web design issue, but the animations are not placed correctly on the webpage.

I have an enterprise Flex web application, served up over https, that runs fine on Flash player 10.0 and beyond on a desktop computer/browser.
However, when I run it from my HTC Incredible with Android 2.2 the app loads fine, but there is no on-screen keyboard and so I cannot log in. I can see the blinking cursor inside the username and password text fields. I can switch between them. I can even hit the login button and see an authentication error!

I am trying to display local flash swfs in the WebView. I have WebView set up and it will happily display local HTML files, but when I try to display Flash, the screen is blank. The flash file is running as I can hear the audio. I have noticed that most swf players from the android market suffer the same issue.

I'm new to flash and interested in multi-platform graphical game development. I've installed the Flash Builder Burrito test version and want to develop a full screen Android graphical game with Android-Flex components (like buttons etc.).
a) Is it possible to have a full graphical screen and then overlay Android-Flex components (buttons etc.) or ist only possible to integrate a graphical screen within a Flex components app so that Android/Flex components have to been outside the screen and so no full graphical screen overlayed with Android/Flex components is possible?
b) If full graphical screen + Android/Flex components is possible: which project type have I to choose: File->New->Flex Project or File->New->ActionScript Mobile Project?
c) Are the components I can choose to design my Flash-Android project Android-like Flex components or are they real Android components?

In my AIR app, when the virtual keyboard shows up the screen height shrinks. The problem I am having is after the virtual keyboard hides, the screen size stays shrunk and you can see a big black gap under the bottom of the app. The only way to adjust it is to rotate to landscape then back to portrait.
This seems to be a glitch with the virtual keyboard and programmers shouldn't be responsible for handling the screen size after it hides.
