    Weekly Questions Thread - September 30, 2019

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 03:56 AM PDT

    This thread is for simple questions that don't warrant their own thread (although we suggest checking the sidebar, the wiki, our Discord, or Stack Overflow before posting). Examples of questions:

    • How do I pass data between my Activities?
    • Does anyone have a link to the source for the AOSP messaging app?
    • Is it possible to programmatically change the color of the status bar without targeting API 21?

    Important: Downvotes are strongly discouraged in this thread. Sorting by new is strongly encouraged.

    Large code snippets don't read well on reddit and take up a lot of space, so please don't paste them in your comments. Consider linking Gists instead.

    Have a question about the subreddit or otherwise for /r/androiddev mods? We welcome your mod mail!

    Also, please don't link to Play Store pages or ask for feedback on this thread. Save those for the App Feedback threads we host on Saturdays.

    Architecture ViewModel is almost useless?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 06:05 AM PDT

    In Architecture Component, we have LiveData, LivecycleOwner and ViewModel. The first 2 is pretty cool as it decouples the ViewModel from Activity/Fragment. However, I feel the ViewModel is almost useless.

    It seems to be the ViewModel purpose is to retain the state onConfiguration change. However it still doesn't keep the state when the Activity/Fragment is killed by the system. Hence, one has still to implement onSaved and onRestore to keep the state.

    Once onSaved and onRestore is handled manually, we no longer need to use ViewModelProvider to keep the ViewModel (since we have handle ourselves), and can instantiate the ViewModel manually ourselves.

    Think over it, we might also not need to implement ViewModel anymore, since seems to me it is needed only if we want to create it using ViewModelProviders factory. Note: we could use any class we create with LiveData and LivecycleOnwer (independently from ViewModel).

    What's the use of ViewModel then? It looks like a half baked solution. Perhaps the only use of it, is for the Activity to share the ViewModels with it's fragment. Other than that, I don't see it's value. I hope to be enlighten though...

    Changing the language of the application using the local country language

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 09:24 AM PDT

    Recently I saw an application that used the local language and can change the language of the application without restarting the application.

    The thing is I wanted to know about how it can be made possible to change the language of the android application using the local language of the country. How one can handle the string resources in such scenarios?

    Is there some way of using Mockito to mock Android's new generated View Bindings?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 12:05 PM PDT

    I want to be able to test the view level logic in my app but using the generated view bindings now supported by Android, as in the binding classes that replace findViewById.

    Any suggestions?

    Annoying "Finish Setup" that cannot be dismissed on AVD

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 01:29 AM PDT

    Whenever I create a new AVD or reset it, the annoying big blue "Finish setup" is there. It cannot be dismissed by swiping left. If I click it, it opens an app that provides only two options: "Remind me later" and "Start". The "later" option has only two sub-options: "Later today" and "tomorrow". So, basically it is telling me "Just give in and go through the process now".

    But that process is mostly useless for an AVD. I don't want to copy data from other phones, I don't want to sign-in now, I don't want to set security lock password, and I don't want to customise fonts, etc. Plus it wastes lots of time circling, probably because of the time spent on communicating with Google's servers.

    Am I the only one annoyed by this? Why not just allow users to dismiss it and use the default settings? Why do they have to force us to go through the slow process?

    Anyone else having trouble using custom MacOS keyboard shortcuts in Android Studio 3.5?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 08:29 AM PDT

    Specifically, I'm referring to the custom "App Shortcuts" option within "System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts".

    I use this to assign a keyboard shortcut to the "Attach Debugger" drop down menu item (though it can be used for any menu item). I've cleared out the default keymap bindings for the keyboard shortcut I'm using, just to make sure there's no conflict with AS's handling of the shortcut vs. the system.

    This seems to have stopped working in a recent AS 3.5 build, and (for me at least) only works when the actual drop down menu item is visible. As in, if I manually click "Run" and _then_ execute the keyboard shortcut, it works fine. Otherwise, it just highlights "Run" as if it was clicked and never actually executes.

    I logged a bug report for this, but I'm mostly curious if anyone else is seeing this, or if this could be local to my machine only.

    Clean unicolor vs material design + dark themes

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 03:42 AM PDT

    Guys, how do you decide what design to use in your apps?

    I have dilema:

    1. My first design is unicolor white/black with only colors for FAB, etc. Something like Google apps. It looks clean but sort of flat boring.

    Other design is using primary color for headers, etc - this is typical material design. It can separate elements much better, but does not look that clean.

    1. Also do developers follow material design for dark themes? I find some rules as nlt that good. For example using desaturated primary and secondary colors (value of 200) look always really dull/almost white if I follow guidelines. I think even Google doesn' t follow those rules always.
