I am developing my first Android application. I have created a relativelayout with two buttons and one autocomplete text view. The three controls display correctly on the emulator. However, when I create the apk file and install it on my Samsung Galaxy 5, the buttons show jagged edges, and the top and bottom lines ‘sink’ a bit and the text view gets an appearance of rounded square brackets on either side with horizontal edges sunk by a half millimeter or so.

Any help in understanding what is happening and how to fix it is highly appreciated.

    I think I got the answer. It was perhaps because I had not defined Minimum SDK version and target SDK version in the manifest (uses-sdk node).

    Adding the following two attributes to the uses-sdk node in manifest file solved the issue. I hope this is what was really necessary.

    android:minSdkVersion="7"
    android:targetSdkVersion="7"
