| Is it really worth it becoming an Android developer? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 02:36 AM PST TL;DR is it worth it becoming an Android developer considering how widely used web technologies are? Hi, over the last few days I've been wondering if becoming an Android developer is actually worth it. I'm currently in college, studying CS, and I've learned quite a few languages so far (not saying I'm an expert in any language by any means), and the two languages I like the most are Java and C++. For this reason, I was looking for job opportunities in either of these languages and since I also happen to like the Android ecosystem (so much that I picked up a Nexus 5 a few years back and I'm still using it) I thought "Well, why not learn Android development more in depth?". I've already made a few toy apps to get a rough idea of what developing for Android is like. The problem is, however, that most apps I see are not even proper Android apps, even though they claim to be. Many, many apps are built using React Native and the like; or in the worse cases they're simply web views which display a web page. That's why I came to think "is the demand for Android developers actually that high?". Most companies developing apps just don't seem to care about UX or how "native" the app feels (and quite frankly, neither do users), they just use a web view or a cross-platform JS framework and they're done with it. Even a big company like Facebook, which is supposed to have a ton of money to invest I guess, seems to be happy with that sub-optimal and memory-hogging app they have. Maybe I've just been unlucky but, excluding apps from Google, 8 apps out of 10 on my phone are not native apps. In conclusion, I feel like a web developer, or someone with a deep JS background, is somehow more appealing than an Android developer who knows how to build proper native apps, from a business standpoint. Am I wrong? Thanks to everyone. [link] [comments]  | ||

| How to develop for Android and actually make progress? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 11:07 AM PST I've been developing Android apps for the past few years and I'm starting to get really fed up with the amount of effort it takes to achieve simple things. I know what you're thinking, but this is not yet another whining thread. I just want to know your stance on this topic so please bear with me. I'm not a professional developer. I only do programming as a hobby, thus the amount of time I can allocate to my own personal projects is also very limited. My most recent Android project for example is around 3k LOC according to some tool on my computer which is not a lot, I know, but seeing that it's not even close to functioning and half the codebase is tying together endless layers of models, view models, services, fragments and adapters takes a lot away from enjoy the process of development. It feels like I'll never finish. Lately I can barely get myself to add any new code, because the business logic is mostly done and adding UI code is pretty mundane for me. Does anyone ever feel the same? What would you recommend in my situation? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 29 Nov 2018 04:16 PM PST So im a total noob and feel like im totally out of my league dabbleing in this field but its something ive always interested in. I would love abit of advice on where to start as a novice app developer. What kind of books and or different resources would you recommend to a noob as myself. I would also love to hear about your Journey through hardships and different experiences as a developer. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Retrofit experts, can you build interfaces with Generics? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 08:56 AM PST I'm seeing a lot of yes or no answers on stack overflow. I'm looking to learning Retrofit a little more and have a third party api that I'm using to test. All json comes back with two objects, "meta" and "data". Meta is standard and is always the same but data can be a list of items or a single item by itself. Is there a way to use Generics and have retrofit consume this API or should I just build out individual model objects to consume each api call? With a parent object that has the meta information.

| What's the best back-end technology to learn alongside with Android development? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 06:05 AM PST Hey, I'm a 20 years old Computer Science Student. I've started Android Development in the middle of high school as a hobby. I've been working with Java for over 2 years and recently switched to Kotlin. I feel quite confident considering my Android skills and I would like to begin my professional career as junior Android Dev in summer 2019. I recently got interested in Cloud and would like to learn some back-end technologies alongside Android. The problem I have with choosing the right technology is between "curiosity" and "job security". I'm interested in following ones: Java Spring – I understand OOP and its principals. I've been working with Java for more than 2 years and know some more advanced aspects of Java and design patterns. A lot of my friends from University are recommending Java Spring, because there is a lot of jobs as a Java Dev + Spring, Hibernate in place I live in (Poland). If I couldn't get a job as junior Android dev (not many jobs for Android juniors in Poland), I probably be able to get one as Java dev. Go – That's my personal choice in terms of "curiosity". I read some articles about Golang, seems like Go is fun, fast and easy to learn. You can easily get productive in Go. Golang is also different than Java so I would learn something new, interesting and have more opportunities to contribute in open-source. The problem is that there are hardly any jobs for Golang devs in Poland and if I don't get a job as an Android Dev I will probably end up in Burger King. To be honest I do not know what to do, maybe sticking only to Android dev and doing my very best for next 7 months is the best option, but I'm really interested in Cloud. I still have more than two years till my Bachelor degree, but I'm encountering financial problems (no financial support next summer) and I need to start working soon. Any advice from more experienced devs will be appreciated. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Publishing apps on Google Play alternatives Posted: 29 Nov 2018 08:36 AM PST Hi, My app was suspended in Google Play due to policy violation. Can I publish the same app in other sites like Aptoide with the same Admob ads ID, or I have to use other ID or even other AD provider? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Gitlab Ci and others KVM problem x86 emulator images all runners Posted: 29 Nov 2018 10:08 AM PST For someone that runs into this the work around is to setup a docker snapshot via running a launch script the first time on a prepared docker image as docker compose does not set a privilege tag...full example and detail explanation by someone else is here https://github.com/yorickvanzweeden/android-ci [link] [comments]  | ||

| Listen to network changes in the background Posted: 29 Nov 2018 07:13 AM PST Hello fellow Android developers, I made an app that needs to do some work when a connection has been made to a specific WiFi network. I've looked everywhere and tried the following:
I started getting problems since targeting Android Oreo, because background limitations were introduced with that api. Now I can't run a indefinitely running background service anymore so I basically rely on things like the Jobscheduler and the newly introduced WorkManager. Now I know that some apps do make this work. For example the YouTube app notifies me immediately when I get home and lets me know someone is streaming. Or numerous mail and chat apps that get notifications in the background. Does anyone know a good and reliable way to detect network changes in the background? [link] [comments]  | ||

| What is looked for when applying to Android Dev jobs on your resume? What Skills? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 08:23 AM PST I know this varies by company requirements - if their applications are Native or WebViews etc.. Should I move onto Kotlin to go along with my Java experience? Is Java good? J2E, React, Node? RESTfulAPI's? Mind you I'm speaking for us getting out of college and looking on what skills to build. So many company requirements for Junior / Entry level positions in mobile development want you to meet their list of requirements in some way, but they don't teach us many of them in college. I've been applying like crazy to summer internships, and looking at some Junior positions along the way, I can knock off like 2-3 requirements, the rest is things I barely know about. What's useful to know? Any hiring managers or people who do interviews would know I'm sure. [link] [comments]  | ||
| How to test object has been created in Espresso tests? Posted: 29 Nov 2018 11:55 AM PST Edit: I mean object created in my Room database. Is this the right place to even be testing them? It's kind of an integration test, but i'm not sure how else to do it. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 28 Nov 2018 05:41 PM PST As I'm an Android "developer" (very novice) myself, I'm currently writing a recommendation report for a uni class on App Distribution Methods for Android Developers. I chose this topic as I've been following this subreddit for months, and the one thing that has really stuck out is how often developers face bans or suspensions - often wrongfully, or too severe in the eyes of developers. One common question I've seen is how these bans will affect those working for companies, usually the answer being that they don't really, and you should still be able to publish under a company. This made me curious - what's preventing setting up limited "companies" to publish under to help avoid developer bans? Could a payment method for the company, business address using something like business po's with real addresses, company emails, and vpns not be used to prevent an encompassing ban? If set up properly, could the "company" not be held viable for any violations instead of the developer, even if there's only one sole developer? I imagine the main issue is funds, but wanted to know if there's anything I'm missing. Thanks for any info! [link] [comments]  | ||
