    How relevant is android experience to other languages and developer roles.

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 02:31 AM PST

    Hi all, few questions. I basically only have android experience I started off in helpdesk and made an android app for my company as a prototype then was promoted to an app developer. I currently have 6 months experience but I'm planning on moving(well, I actually have to move) in mid to late 2018.

    I'd really like to continue my career in android development as I enjoy it a lot(work flies by) but there arent a huge number of jobs(I live in Australia). I might have to apply for other roles. My first question is how qualified will I be for say, a Java developer role? Would android experience suffice?

    My second question has to do with my actual experience. I sort of created my position as the company I work for was looking to go into mobility and me showing up with Android knowledge was basically their cue. Everything I have done has been my own idea, I don't have a dev lead (for Android) as no one else at my work knows android so it has been up to me to figure out how to complete each app. I'm worried that I might be missing crucial practices.

    I've been following this sub for over a year now and trying to gauge the norm as well as Google's resources, I've been looking at Android developer listings and making a point of trying to learn and use relevant ones at work. For example I didn't know what retrofit was for and I was using httpurlconnection for the first month in my position, then once I found out what retrofit was, I re wrote my rest calls in my code. I also have my own apps but they aren't on the play store yet, I've been trying to learn kotlin since the AS 3.0 release.

    Basically I'm just worried that I'll come out of this position with not enough actual android experience and developer experience as a whole. I don't feel as though I'm qualified enough for either position.

    Apologies for the wall of text. Any constructive advice would be great.

    Android 8.0 is deleting my app preferences

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 11:16 AM PST

    Hello community,

    I'm a fairly experienced Android developer. I'm currently having a really weird problem in my Nexus 6P running Android O. When I install the version 28 of my app through APK/Play Store (tried both) and then install the 32 (through APK), the Shared Preferences XML is deleted instantly, I don't even have to open the app. But somehow, if I install 26 -> 28 -> 32, this never happens, the XML doesn't get deleted (and that's the normal behavior I think. The preferences should never be deleted on update!).

    I'm not having this problem in a device that's running a different version. Do you have any idea why this is going on?

    Thank you.

    Adventures in Desugaring

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 09:25 AM PST

    Finally, after converting our large (~70KSLOC) Android project to AGP 3.0, decided to enable Java 1.8 compatibility. Hooray! Except, for some reason it would consistently fail when applying the desugar transform. Found quite a few posts on Stack Overflow and elsewhere about the issue, but none of the resolutions for the other problems worked for me. In a fit of righteous anger, I found the Desugar sources in the bazel repo, installed bazel and built the latest version of Desugar, and lo (3 hours later!), better error reporting led me to the Leanplum 2.2.3 jar. Fortunately I just had to bump the dependency to the latest version and it worked — I think something was odd about the obfuscation in 2.2.3 Anyway, here's my Stack Overflow answer with slightly more details. Anyone else have a fun yak shave to share?

    How to handle removing items from recyclerview when there is only one item left and removing that item would render the list of items empty?

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 04:27 PM PST

    I have an app which has a favorites function and the favorites list is a recyclerview. I have the adapter which takes in a list of favorites and renders it onto the listview. In my activity, I have it set to where if the list of favorites is empty, don't set an adapter and instead show some text telling the user that they don't have any favorites saved.

    The issue i'm trying to solve is what if the user removes the last favorite item while they are in the favorites activity? Currently, it crashes the activity since the list of favorites is empty and therefore the adapter for the recyclerview cannot be constructed. So, how would I implement the logic in the adapter to stop itself when it detects that the item that is currently being removed is the last item in the list and kill recyclerview instead of crashing the app?

    Using RecyclerView without ViewHolder

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 10:02 AM PST

    What advive you would give to someone who wants to get into open source and never contributed to any open source project before, assuming the person is familiar with version control?

    Posted: 03 Jan 2018 05:04 AM PST

    Hi, I've started learning Android development about a month ago from Google's nanodegree program on Udacity. It has five courses namely, Android Basics: User Interface, Android Basics: User Input, Android Basics: Multiscreen Apps, Android Basics: Networking and Android Basics: Data Storage. I have completed first 4 of them with all the projects, everything and currently doing the 5th one. I want to go for this year's Google Summer of Code so I started researching past year's GSoC projects and finally found one on which I want to work on - https://github.com/fossasia/phimpme-android But when I open the project it seems so overwhelming, there are all these libraries that I haven't seen before and I have no idea how to even begin to understand the codebase. If you could give me any ideas or tips on how to go about familiarizing myself with the code base and contribute to it, that'd be great! Thank you for reading!

    Apple buys app development service Buddybuild

    Posted: 02 Jan 2018 05:38 PM PST

    BuddyBuild was a fairly decent CI system for Android development with the following features:

    • lightweight setup: login once with your GitHub / GitLab account, point it to the git project and it remembers your everything.
    • continuous Integration: build per branch policy which can be configurable
    • run automated UI tests or unit tests per build / branch. It also integrated with Firebase Test Lab.
    • deployment: auto-distribute to user(s) based on branch policy or manually, with optional release notes. Unlike Fabric.io, there is no need to install an separate app for users to receive builds.
    • optional versionCode management
    • auto or manual one-click deploy to Google Play store
    • crash logging which is at least as good or better than Crashlytics

    I am curious to know what tools you as an Android Developer are currently using to meet the above needs. Is there a single service which can do all of the above, or are you using multiple services to achieve your build and deployment needs?
