    Tired of asking about specific method signature during job interview

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 03:06 AM PST

    Android job interview became truly ridiculous there days!

    Android SDK is so huge and is getting bigger, add old school Java (one day I stepped upon a vipers nest "job opportunity" - the very 1st question was "what are all methods of java.lang.Object.java" and I immediately run away from those freaks), new school Kotlin maddness, add Android BLE quirks, backward compatibility here, forward compatiblity there and you get insane.

    Next time I get the feeling that the person I'm talking with is trying to be a smart-ass I want to tell him "listen, Android SDK is X milions of lines of code and you're trying to ask me about one of it, are you feeling ok?"

    Can you people tell me what is X?

    Multiple Developer Accounts.

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 10:03 AM PST

    I am developing an app for a client and he is not very tech-savvy, he asked me to upload the app to google play.

    Neither he nor I want the app to be under my account, as his product does not sit well with the apps that I have under my account.

    he asked me to create the account for him and just handle it.

    am I allowed to just open another account? it will be under the name of his company, but I will pay with the same credit card used to open my original account, also it will be from my pc.

    (I currently have no violations or warnings from google) and I would like to keep my good standing. and avoid doing something against the TOS.

    Is the AMD Hypervisor better than Windows Hypervisor?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 02:27 AM PST

    I'm using Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL 2) and it uses Hyper-V. The AMD Hypervisor is not able to work at the same time with it, but the WHPX can.

    Tabs with Jetpack Compose

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:03 AM PST

    Is there any cloud service supporting the SAF's ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE ?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 02:53 AM PST

    In particular, and to my dismay, Google Drive does not support ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE, thus you cannot pick a folder on Google Drive (for example for saving a file in it). That's incomprehensible since you can open a file with Google Drive with the SAF using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT. So you cannot save a file to Google Drive with the SAF (unless I missed something) but you can open files from it. Makes total sense... Is there any cloud provider (or anything else than local storage) that has implemented ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE ?

    App not listed in App drawer after installing using USB and Android Studio

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 05:18 AM PST

    Hello everyone,

    I test and debug an app I currently work on, on my mobile phone. To install it, I connected it with an USB cable with the PC, enabled the USB debugging settings on my phone and installed it using Android Studio.

    However, for some reason, it does get installed, works and runs completely fine, but doesn't appear in the App drawer where all Apps are usually listed. Any idea why this is the case?

    If you need any technical information, like settings on my mobile phone or source code, tell me! :) Thanks for any help!

    Compilation for x86 question

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 06:08 AM PST

    I asked this on an /r/emulation thread but never got an answer.

    I'm not familiar with Android development. Are most apps runnable on x86 Android "for free" (a la a simple Java JAR for printing Hello World will run on any platform as long as there's a JVM), or do the devs need to carry out extra steps?

    Serious question. What are some alternative IDEs to Android Studio?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 02:17 PM PST

    We'll have an Android development course this semester, and there are a lot of people in my class that don't have computers that can handle all of the ram and cpu power Android Studio eats.

    Do you have any recommendations?

    Localizing my app to Brazilian Portuguese & German

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 01:42 AM PST

    My app has a fair share of user base from Brazil & Germany. I'm considering translating my app to Brazilian Portuguese & German. Right now the app is available in English only. Is it worth doing the translation? How popular is English in these countries? What is the primary language in their mobile phones in these countries? Anybody from these countries can chime in? Thanks in advance.

    Android Studio keeps loading remnants of a Sqlite database

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:44 PM PST

    Suddenly when I run my app from Android Studio it loads remnants of a database even though I have cleared the data and even uninstalled. This is playing havoc with my app. What gives?

    React Native local database like room

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 06:46 AM PST

    What is equivalent of Room db (with something like livedata) i react native?

    Is there such a thing in react native? I want create some simple app for android where view layer* is bigger problem than backend and I would try something else that gives me something more than usual elements that gives you android.

    I think web developing is giving more "elements" and custom overlapping/sliding elements would be easier in something like react. (However I not advanced in react atm)

    • good way to represent something.

    JetPack Compose is going to be the de-facto standard for Native Android apps once it's released. I had some time yesterday to play around with it so I created a small project combining JetPack Compose with Amazon Cognito.

    How to reduce the size of Classes.dex file?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:59 AM PST

    After going through my app in apk analyzer most of the size is taken by Classes.dex file. These look like the compiled version of classes created. Is there any way I can reduce the size of these? Also, why are there multiple Classes.dex files?

    Google Messages Toolbar

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:25 PM PST

    The Messages app from Google has a Toolbar effect where the toolbar has no elevation until the content is scrolled. Also, the Toolbar and status bar becomes semi transparent and the recycler view content scrolls under them.

    How can one achieve that effect?

    Here are some screenshots: https://ibb.co/x7GbX6v https://ibb.co/FX6g18K

    CTRL + PgUp/PgDn shortcut for cycling between tabs feels broken (when Preview is open in xml tabs)

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 08:25 PM PST

    I do android dev occasionally and recently started a project. When cycling between tabs using the CTRL + PgUp/PgDn shortcut, it breaks the flow sometimes. Let's say I have 2 java tabs open and an xml tab open with preview enabled. That shortcut will take me from xml to java when when I press it again, it shifts context to the Project window and changes project overview mode (Android, Project, Pacakage, etc). I don't want it to change context and send my shortcut to the Project pane. Just send it to the tabs I have opened and ignore all other panes.

    Are there any open source ad mediation solution?

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:03 PM PST

    I had been trying different ad mediation solutions such as appodeal / admob / ironsrc etc, but I find them not very good and I am forced to use their base network.

    Are there any open source solutions?
