Not that I have seen. Off the cuff, what you want to do probably is not possible without modifying the Android OS in firmware. Once Android is released as open source, you hopefully will be able to see what is needed, implement the changes, and propose them as patches to be considered for a future version of Android. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.3 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
