Question

My application which I built for 1.5, shows text blurry on high density screen of HTC Desire and the like. Here is a close up screen shot from my application (bad.png) and a better example (good.png)

alt text http://taypo.com/bad.png alt text http://taypo.com/good.png

Yes, I am building a soft keyboard. And the text is drawn with canvas.drawText. All the discussions I found online is about image resizing issues.

You should read this guide

Basically, if you want support 1.5 devices you should build your project
against SDK >= 1.6 with the minSdkVersion setted to 3:

<uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="3"
        android:targetSdkVersion="4"
    />

On this way you will be able to have differents drawable resources for differents
screen size/density without breaking the compability with Android 1.5
which assumes all screens are “mdpi”.
obviously you can’t use any api released after sdk version 3
