Android: how to open new intent from ListView, hosted in TabHost, inside same FrameLayout?



I looked through tons of articles how to open new Activity from ListView hosted by TabHost.








I have a TabHost Activity, one of the tabs has ListView, with clickable list items.


On item click, I want new Activity to be opened in the same FrameLayout.


My code for calling new Activity looks as following:









Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), displayRSS.class);

this.startActivity(intent);









This opens just new Activity.


I want new Activity to be opened instead of current ListActivity.






Would appreciate any possible solutions on this.

  1. If u want to open the activity in the same tab, do the following

    while creating tabs, u have to launch activity group in that tab as

    Tabspec tabspec=getTabHost().newTabSpec("title").setContent(new Intent(TabGroupActivityEx.class,"unique string"));
    getTabHost().addTab(tabspec);

    under this tab group activity launch an activity that contains list view, when an item click launch another activity with setContentView() then u will get as u required.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
