I’ve spent the past 3-4 days looking for clear examples of tab navigation that would work on Android versions before 3.0, but every example I’ve gone through simply doesn’t work (causes a crash) on the AVD emulator. In some cases these examples are extremely complicated and difficult to reproduce.
I’m reaching out to anyone in the SO community who could point me towards a walkthrough for a simple Tab-based navigation system for my App. I’d like it to be backwards-compatible for Android versions older than 3.0.
I’d be really grateful if anyone can simply point me towards a tutorial. I am by no means demanding anyone do this, but if someone is feeling particularly charitable the extra attention would be really appreciated!
Why don’t you try ViewPager? It’s backwards-compatible to Android 2.x
