    Random Permission denied on write externalCacheDir - api 22

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 09:06 AM PDT

    I do get this issue randomly, if I uninstall the app from android studio and install again. It happens randomly that permission is denied my app from accessing externalCacheDir which normally it should have access to it. This should be accessible to app without requiring any permission.

    Anyone encountered this issue before?

    Memory leaks in Android Studio 3.5 beta 3

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 03:03 AM PDT

    AS 3.5 was supposed to be about removing bugs.

    However, for me this is the buggiest Android Studio I have ever used.

    I have 8 gigabytes of memory and it was possible to use Android Studio 3.4.1 the whole day without major problems.

    3.5 beta 1/2/3 all seem to have huge memory usage and leakage. After couple hours of work, it crashes with memory full exception.

    Anyone else having the same problem?

    Looking for clarification about Google Play app/account suspension

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 12:09 PM PDT

    Hi ! I' relatively new to Android development, having graduating app development course over a month ago and just starting publishing apps.

    Sadly, the day I feared the most has come sooner than expected - today, one of my apps has been suspended on Google Play for DMCA copyright infringement (apparently I accidentally used copyrighted art from a video game). Since app suspension can eventually lead to termination of your developer account, I started looking for a list of conditions under which developer account can be terminated.

    However, I was unable to find anything specific (such as number of violation required for suspension), neither in Google Play documentation or the web:

    • Documentations just contain general information without any specifics, like "Serious or repeated violations of any nature will result in the termination" and so on.
    • Developer stories vary - while the majority say that developer account gets terminated after exactly 3 violations, some claim their account was terminated after just one app suspension; meanwhile, others claim that their account remains active even after many violations over the years.

    Since I was unable to find anything conclusive, I've decided to turn to Reddit for information & help. So, if you have any information or personal experience on the matter, I would like to have your opinion on the following topics:

    • Is there an actual number of times your account must make any violations in order to be terminated/suspended ?
    • Do these violations get counted over specific periods of time (for example, if my app got suspended X years ago, that violation will not be added to current count of violations in the account) ?
    • Do you need to make several violations of any kind for termination, or several violations for the same reason (for example, if you made 3 violations for Restricted Content you get terminated, but 1 violation for Restricted Content & 2 violations for something else will not harm you) ?
    • Is it true that you won't be able to ever make a new developer account after account termination, how bad is it ?
    • Some suggested opening new developer account each time your current account gets even one app suspension, to prevent account termination - is it a good practice ?
    • Are there any services which allow to check if the material used in your app falls under Google Play guidelines ?

    tl;dr: Looking for opinions & personal experiences on Google Play app/account termination or suspension.

    How to reduce APK size from raw files?

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 10:58 AM PDT

    I have a lot of sounds in my app taking up too much space and I want to know how can I reduce my APK size? I've looked into android app bundles but I don't think that'll help me since it's base APK stores all of the res files I believe.

    Unable to login to AdMob, but AdSense and Google Ads are fine?

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 01:59 PM PDT

    Whenever I attempt to login to my AdMob account, I get a message that says "you cannot use AdMob at this time" but with no other indication of why that is. My AdSense is completely fine as well as my Google Ads. The troubleshooter doesn't even have an option for such a message. What can be done?

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 01:47 PM PDT

    I'm looking for Places / Address REST API cheap / free if possible. I was using HERE geocoder, but looks like I'm not allowed to use it with Google Maps.

    Google Places API is too expensive for me. My app is free so that's the reason I would like to find cheap as possible API.

    Android Contacts Library

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 09:04 AM PDT

    Hello there,

    So I was surfing through the Android libraries on Github. Knowing that Contacts API is pain in the ass just wondered if there are any libraries to make things simple. I was suprised that there isnt any viable option, you have to get into the cursor mess if you want to develop even a simple app. Am I missing something?

    Splitting UI into two even parts dynamically

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 11:46 AM PDT

    The title is probably a bit confusing so here:

    I have an app layout that has 3 parts. One full width button at the bottom. Two full width linear layouts that are on top of each other (vertically)

    Now those two layouts are supposed to cover one half each of the space above the button. How can i do that without assigning a set hight so it's not dependant on screen size?

    After google announced Kotlin first at google I/O it's better to convert our old projects to Kotlin so we'll be up to date with the newest. Google helped the developer by creating a tool to auto convert from java to Kotlin. In your experience with examples what doesn't work with that tool?

    App for donating to charities and nonprofits - legal requirements

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 05:21 AM PDT

    Hello all,

    ​

    I am about to develop an app in which users will be able to donate to nonprofit/charity organisations.

    Does anyone know if there are any special legal requirements / approval processes for doing that?

    ​

    I'm asking because Apple's AppStore has something like this (3.2.1 Acceptable, (vi) https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/), but I couldn't find any specific information for Google Play, except that In-app Billing doesn't currently support donations, which I don't mind, but there was no more information about donations.

    Why should a Component depend on a SubComponent in Dagger2

    I came across this post here. I don't really get it why the component needs to depend on the subcomponent.

    So I've tried looking for ways to design the UI/UX of my upcoming android project. Are there any design tools that I can use to create the UI. I'm looking for something that will convert the design to xml so I won't have to do much typing. I'm using Android Studio on Windows so I can't run Sketch.

    Is Adsense any good?

    Posted: 03 Jun 2019 06:20 AM PDT

    What are your views about Adsense, is it any good, are there any alternatives. I get plenty of clicks mainly from Europe and U.S and still my Revenue is just depressing. I am starting to think i am doing something wrong or is Adsense.

    [Request Help] Wrapping an existing application to Android

    I'm extremely new to android app development, and am trying to wrap an existing internal application for android.

    I have followed the steps listed here :

    ​

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/cross-platform/tools-for-cordova/tips-workarounds/run-web-app-in-cordova?view=toolsforcordova-2017

    ​

    Everything seemed to go well until the end where I keep recieving the following error

    https://i.redd.it/jgcxjal7h4231.png

    I am unsure how to proceed afterwards.

    The site i am using is an internal app which uses windows authentication to redirect users based on whether or not they have already registered.

    ​

    If you would like to request for any code I have used, please let me know

    I want to register for a Google Developer account. It accepts transaction from a credit card only which I don't have. The question that whether or not I can use a friend's card. Will there be any further connection of credit card with this account? Also, if I integrate ads the money can be transferred directly to my account or not?
