Is there a way to add refresh button to android? On top navigation bar maybe?

The code for a refresh is in a dialogue (sorry, "dialog") on every screen but only shows on the home screen, you could just move the button out of the dialog and place it wherever.

Oh yeah good idea..But which java files contrains dialog code baseactivity?

It's in every screen activity, near the end. It shows if the screen is the home screen, and is hidden on every other screen. Haven't tried it but I guess you'd remove the if statement that only shows it on the home screen, so you could use the option on any screen.

Found it thanks now testing ti.. final Button btnRefreshAppData = new Button(this); btnRefreshAppData.setText(getString(R.string.refreshAppData)); btnRefreshAppData.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){ public void onClick(View v){ dialog.cancel(); refreshAppData(); } }); options.add(btnRefreshAppData); }
