    How to collaborate with a negligent contractor....

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 12:28 PM PDT

    I recently joined a project where I am working with a negligent contractor that takes a "if it works, it works" approach to the project and more so, knows that the project will be handed over to permanent staff when we leave, and considers the code quality of the app "their problem" when we leave. Most of the developers code is in a dire state, I've seen a lot of business logic in onCreate methods and in click or focus listeners. Should I bring this to the company's attention...?

    Use passwordToggleEnabled but start with password visible

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 09:42 AM PDT

    I tried to use passwordToggleEnabled in TextInputLayout. I can get the nice "eye" icon. However, password is hidden by default.

    What I would like to have, is to have password visible by default. User can later have choice to turn off/on password visibility, by clicking on eye icon.

    I try to use android:inputType="textVisiblePassword" at the first place. However, I realize such inputType will make the "eye" icon disappear.

    Some guy in stackoverflow also facing the same problem as I do - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41611476/visible-password-with-textinputlayouts-passwordtoggleenabled

    I was wondering, has anyone of you come across a solution for this situation? Thank you.

    What do you guys like to listen to while you work?

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 07:13 AM PDT

    I completely understand if this post needs to be removed if it doesn't have to do with androiddev directly, just curious what the android developer community likes to listen to while they work :) thanks everyone!

    Android Instant Apps Tutorial For Beginners

    If you use Dark scheme of Android Studio, do you keep the default grey background for your editor?

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 12:40 PM PDT

    I think most of you use the Dark theme, at least during the night. One of the first things I do after installing AS on a new computer is changing the background colour from grey to complete black. I wish I could do the same thing for the project file tree on the left, but... you know.

    Today I happened to see the default grey background again and realised again how the code looks bad, due to low contrast. But am I the only one who feels like that? Since the default is grey, the programmers who made Android Studio must have thought that grey is better than black. What do most users think?

    Android Udacity Course Error creating New Activities

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 12:11 PM PDT

    Hey Everyone,

    I am currently on the Multi-Screen Miwok App on Udacity's Android course. I am currently stumped on a bug that won't let me compile when I create a new Blank Activity.

    I have updated, restarted and reinstalled Android Studio however I sill have the following bugs:

    Configuration 'compile' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'implementation' and 'api'. Configuration 'testCompile' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'testImplementation' and 'testApi'. Configuration 'testApi' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'testImplementation'.

    Is there anything I can do resolve the issue?

    Is it possible to emit between the standard Bluetooth BLE 5.0 channels and do so simply, say with a script, instead of programming RFCOMM?

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 01:27 PM PDT

    The ISM band of cellular phones has few restrictions upon its use.

    There is a lot of space between the current 40 Bluetooth channels. After all, there used to be 78 Bluetooth channels, occupying nearly the same space as today's 40 channels.

    Is it possible to write a simple script, to cause the phone to emit between the current BLE 5.0 channels?

    Is it possible to use RFCOMM and cause the phone to emit between the current channels, given that the ISM band has few restrictions?

    In general, would a RFCOMM program require Rooting the users phone?

    Can you suggest any ideas?

    Thanks! Allen.

    Need some advice on designing for tablets.

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 11:24 AM PDT

    Greetings.

    So I've been put on a project where they have an activity which holds a recyclerview that displays items in a cart. There's a search bar which searchs a product catalog and displays the results in the same recyclerview by switching the adapter and then back to the cart adapter when adding products are complete.

    So I've been tasked to make this activity more tablet friendly on a horizontal view. I thought about putting a line down the center of the view with the add product on the left and the cart on the right. I've never had to design for tablets before but i think this is the right approach.

    Here's my issue though, with the way the current activity is working, they have combined two actions into one, the adding products and viewing cart. If i were to go the route of splitting the screen I'd have to make my own class for tablets only to support two recyclerviews instead of replacing the data in one.

    This means that there would have to be two classes of code to be maintained if new features are added.

    I'm trying to avoid this path.

    Am i on the right path or is there something I'm missing?

    Does there exist a Dockerized dev environment for android development?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2018 10:20 PM PDT

    Hello

    Im working on a project where I need to standardizes and simplify the development environment.

    The specific project involves a React-native dev environment.

    I've manage to put together a docker-compose file that contains an image for the android sdk, and another image for building, that contains npm, yarn, react-native etc.

    But I would like to be able to run an android emulator from a docker container. Most people seem to use Genymotion. Im wondering are there any alternatives to genymotion that can run in docker?

    Or are there other approaches to making a easy-to-setup dev environment?

    Thanks

    WTF...

    Posted: 04 Jul 2018 09:03 AM PDT

    Ok, so this is a little rant... But I'm with my neices and nephews for the holidays. I've never developed apps for children. But some of the apps they're on are just weird. Obviously the apps are engaging for the kids, but they're almost unsettling. Like those "kids" YouTube channel with the adult Elsa and stuff.

    Not only that but once an ad pops up and the 2 year old sees the finger on screen moving eggs around it something they automatically try to move the eggs too... Clicking the ad. Sent to the play store and all of a sudden they're navigating YouTube because they see the play trailer button....

    I guess it's just foreign to me. I don't know if it's a bad thing, just weird. Figured I'd rant about it for a minute. I told my sister in law about what her 2 year old did and she had no idea that she could get to YouTube like that... Not a knock on her parenting. She's great. But geeze...

    Anyone have problems with Android Studio freezing their computer?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2018 07:27 PM PDT

    I have a pretty decent PC and just started Android development a few weeks ago. Every couple days or so Android Studio will just completely freeze up my computer. Any recommendations are much appreciated!

    Somebody made an app similar to mine and copy&pasted the description from my app. What can I do?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2018 05:08 PM PDT

    I mostly don't want people to confuse my app for this imposter. My app has been out for a few months now and is pretty popular, so I'm not sure if this other dev is trying to piggy back off of it's success or not.

    I don't care if the app is similar, but I don't want him to just rip the description from my app.
