Per the about screen, I'm running 0.7.0. Mah bad.

The market actually prevents you from downloading it if your screen is not the 
right 
size, so this is a pretty rare issue. If you go to the market with a 240x320 
screen, 
geohashdroid will not appear. 
So this issue is only for those of us who can't afford a new phone and have 
crammed 
Android onto our old 240x320 winmo phones. Can't imagine any other xkcd readers 
doing 
that...

Actually, this burned a co-worker of mine who crammed Android on HIS old 240x320
phone, too.  This is because GHD is currently a 1.5 app, which was made before 
ANY of
the multiple-screen support came in, meaning that not only does it not report 
any
support for small screens (the Market problem), but it isn't designed for it, 
either.

Facts which, I'll note, are the primary things I'm addressing in 0.7.2 (thus 
making
it a 1.6 app), which I'm working on now. :-)

(note to Motorola CLIQ users: I'm planning on leaving compatibility hooks to 
make it
run under 1.5, so you won't be left out in the cold)

Oh, and sorry it took me so long to respond.  I could swear I set this up to 
notify
me via email if someone files an issue...

All righty... I just uploaded version 0.7.2-pre1 to the website.  That, amongst 
other
things, has support for multiple screen sizes, including QVGA support.  It uses 
a
button to call up a dialog instead of putting the massive date picker on the 
main
screen.  Plus, it uses slightly tweaked fonts in the details screen once you've 
got
the day's point.

I've tested this in the emulator and it's working right there, but I've learned 
the
hard way that it's not always perfectly accurate when it comes to layout 
matters. 
Could you please test it out?

Changed state: Accepted

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Since QVGA support for GHD has been live on the Market for a while now, I'm 
marking 
this issue is closed, since I haven't had any complaints about the layouts yet. 
 If 
there's any further layout problems, feel free to file a new issue.
