Best way to implement design in an Android app?

I am currently developing an Android application for a company that has this type of design and targeting Hires devices, but I found that it is very difficult to do, and on some devices the buttons start to stretch.

Screen design here: https://skitch.com/aaronwardle/r7kwa/screen

Several people have recommended making buttons in Nine Patch PNG files that help with various screen layouts.

Should I try to get a new application design for this project that fits all screens using standard controls, or do you think this is possible?

Looking at the statistics, the most common devices are small screens, so creating this application may have a limited audience.

If someone has any pointers to what I could do, that is, I could do this for high-resolution screens, and does the application have a different layout for smaller screens?

Thanks Aaron!

Your question is too general to give a simple and quick answer. In addition, the layout you want to create is complex and very out-of-place, which complicates the situation. Please make sure that you read and understand the official documents on this subject from HERE . There is no replacement for this ...

Highlights that come to mind from this document:

  • <supports-screens>
  • . , -small -portrait, , , DPI. , XML .

  • AbsoluteLayout
  • /
