Galaxy Note Resolution

Question

I am talking about Device resolution not screen size.

I saw many previous questions' answers that was something like 320 x480, i think this is screen size. Correct me if i am wrong.

For example, Samsung Galaxy Note Resolution is 1280 x 800 pixel.

How do i get this value in java programming?

Answer 1

try this

Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay(); 
            int width = display.getWidth();  // deprecated
            int height = display.getHeight();  // deprecated
            Log.d("hai",width+"");
            Log.d("hai",height+"");
            DisplayMetrics dm = new DisplayMetrics();
            getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(dm);
            double x = Math.pow(width/dm.xdpi,2);
            double y = Math.pow(height/dm.ydpi,2);
            double screenInches = Math.sqrt(x+y);
            Log.d("hai","Screen inches : " + screenInches+"");

        int height= display.getHeight();
        TextView w=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView2);
        w.setText(""+width);
