RecyclerView + CardView example: with Button
This example work on last example of "Gallery-like RecyclerView + CardView example" to show how to add a button and OnClickListener in RecyclerView + CardView. A ImageButton is add over the photo on each cell. Once user click on the ImageButton, the corresponding OnClickListener, to show the info of the corresponding photo.
Modify layout/layout_cardview.xml to add a ImageButton.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
card_view:cardCornerRadius="5sp"
card_view:cardElevation="5sp">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/item_image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<ImageButton
android:id="@+id/buttonInfo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@android:drawable/ic_menu_info_details"
android:background="#00ffffff"/>
</FrameLayout>
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
Modify MyRecyclerViewAdapter.java:
- get the reference to the Button in the constructor of RecyclerView.ViewHolder.
- implement the OnClickListener in onBindViewHolder() of MyRecyclerViewAdapter.

Add and Remove view dynamically, another approach
Last post show a example of "Add and Remove view dynamically", each Remove Button have its own OnClickListener object, each OnClickListener object refer to a specified view.

Add and Remove view dynamically, keep track of child views
I have a old example of "Add and Remove view dynamically". Somebody ask how the Remove button keep track of the views. So I modify the example to explain in more details.
In this example, when user click on the Add button, it will create a child View, addView. The addView have a Button, buttonRemove. The buttonRemove have its own OnClickListener object. The OnClickListener object refer to the specified addView when it is created.
That means the OnClickListener object of the buttonRemove in the first child view("abc") not the same object in the second child view("abcdef"), not the same object in the third child view("abcdefghi")...All have its own individual OnClickListener object. And each OnClickListener object refer to a specified addView object. Such that it can keep track of the child Views, addView.

socket.getInetAddress() return null on Android 5
Refer to last example of "Simple HTTP server running on Android", it work on Xiaomi Redmi 2 running Android 4.4.4. But somebody report program stopped on Android 5 devices. So I re-test on Nexus 7 running Android 5.1.1. Yes, the app crash! caused by NullPointerException, because socket.getInetAddress() return null.
Modify MainActivity.java to capture socket.getInetAddress() before and after close():

Simple HTTP server running on Android
It's my old exercise "Implement simple HTTP server running on Android". Somebody report it's not work, so I re-try it on Android Studio. Actually the code is same as before, and work as expected. Please notice both the server and client have to connect in the same WiFi network.
Updated@2015-11-26:
This code NOT work on Android 5, may be all 5+ version.
Fixed, refer next post "socket.getInetAddress() return null on Android 5".

Display image in opposite color to Trick your brain
This example inspired by the BBC video "Trick your brain: black and white photo turns to colour! - Colour: The Spectrum of Science".
Load your photo, touch the ImageView to display the image of opposite color, look on the blue dot concentratedly for a moment, then release touch to display the black and white image. MAY BE you will be tricked with a color image. try it:)
APK can be download on bottom of this post.

Apache HTTP Client Removed from Android 6.0 release
Android 6.0 release removes support for the Apache HTTP client. If your app is using this client and targets Android 2.3 (API level 9) or higher, use the HttpURLConnection class instead. This API is more efficient because it reduces network use through transparent compression and response caching, and minimizes power consumption.
To continue using the Apache HTTP APIs, you must first declare the following compile-time dependency in your build.gradle file:
Have to sync Gradle project after you insert the above code in build.gradle file.

VirtualBox auto mount shared folder
The post demonstrate how to "Install Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 on Windows 10/VirtualBox", and also share folder between Windows host and Ubuntu guest user folder, in command line/shell script.
Starting with version 4.0, VirtualBox can mount shared folders automatically. In case on Linux guests, auto-mounted shared folders are mounted into the /media directory, along with the prefix sf_. For example, the shared folder myfiles would be mounted to /media/sf_myfiles on Linux and /mnt/sf_myfiles on Solaris.
Access to auto-mounted shared folders is only granted to the user group vboxsf, which is created by the VirtualBox Guest Additions installer. Hence guest users have to be member of that group to have read/write access or to have read-only access in case the folder is not mapped writable.
(reference: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#sf_mount_auto)
In order to use the share folder feature, you have to "Insert Guest Additions CD images".
The below video show how to create share folder between host Windows (D:\vbShare) and guest Ubuntu Linux (/media/sf_vbShare), and add current user to the vboxsf group with the command:
$ sudo usermod -a -G vboxsf eric
where:
vboxsf is the user group own the shared folder
eric is the the current user
