Sorry I'm new to Android handsets. When you do a startActivity(intent) does it involve hitting Googles cloud services at all to resolve the [handler] or is this purely a local call?
Can the xdpi and ydpi settings be relied upon to accurately represent the physical pixels in once inch of screen space? I need this to be accurate for some display code I'm writing. I realize the documention says that this is the case, but I need to know if individual handsets get this right MOST OF THE TIME.
I know I can alternately use "densitiy" which will give me 120, 160, 240 steps of DPI, but an exact dpi would be much better.
Thanks!
