    How many of you all are indie developers that maintain your own backend for your app? How’s it going?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 06:57 AM PDT

    Do you all maintain servers by yourself with AWS or whatever for your android app? Is it tough? Expensive? Do you make enough off your app to cover the expenses?

    Thanks appreciate the responses!

    i don't like compose | change my mind

    Posted: 31 May 2021 01:56 AM PDT

    Hi, i'd like to talk about compose with someone to understand some other view that will not be "YEEEAH COMPOSE IS GREAT! I HAD FUN PLAYING WITH IT" without specify why they like it

    i've been an android developer for a 8+ year and now i'm trying to understand Compose approach and i'm having great issues.

    Here's my cons and pros, i'd like to read some opinions from you

    Pros

    • ui is easier to read (and structure)
    • no more (slow) view inflate
    • no more struggling in theming for some components (especially for some brand, eg. Samsung)
    • no more 200+ xml attributes to remember for various components

    Cons:

    • XML in design was more intuitive
    • compose preview is too much slow (i hope they will improve a LOT)
    • Functional approach. I've been working on Flutter and took a look to SwiftUi and i think object oriented approach is more "easy to understand" because we've been working that way for a lot of time
    • SideEffects. I've been reading for all of my life that side effects are BAD and now it's a feature?
    • Poor documentation for hardest part: side effects (again), composition context, dispatchers, complex state (es. coroutinesStates) are not very well documented and i'm having hard time find tutorial/guide about them

    What do you think ?

    Getting back into Android Development

    Posted: 30 May 2021 07:37 PM PDT

    Hey, I've been out of the game for almost 5 years. Had a kid and took a break from it all. Well now that I have some free time again I'd like to get back into some OS development. I'm trying to get started on my older tablet again, and its Android 7.1.2. Where do I find the right packages needed to develop for older versions of Android on new versions of Ubuntu?

    How to use signature pad library with jetpack compose using Android and Kotlin?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 10:09 AM PDT

    I was using this library to get signature https://github.com/gcacace/android-signaturepad with Android app written in Kotlin, now I moved to jetpack compose and I want to use it with the new UI library

    - XML

    <com.github.gcacace.signaturepad.views.SignaturePad xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:id="@+id/signature_pad" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" app:penColor="@android:color/black" />

    - fragment

    class SignatureFragment : Fragment() { private lateinit var signatureBinding: FragmentSignatureBinding override fun onCreateView( inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle? ): View { setupSignatureBinding(inflater, container) handleSignatureClicks() return signatureBinding.root } private fun setupSignatureBinding(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?) { signatureBinding = DataBindingUtil.inflate( inflater, R.layout.fragment_signature, container, false ) } private fun handleSignatureClicks() { signatureBinding.signaturePad.setOnSignedListener(object : SignaturePad.OnSignedListener { override fun onStartSigning() {} override fun onSigned() { signatureBinding.saveButton.isEnabled = true signatureBinding.clearButton.isEnabled = true } override fun onClear() { signatureBinding.saveButton.isEnabled = false signatureBinding.clearButton.isEnabled = false } }) signatureBinding.clearButton.setOnClickListener{ signatureBinding.signaturePad.clear() } signatureBinding.saveButton.setOnClickListener { val signatureBitmap: Bitmap = signatureBinding.signaturePad.signatureBitmap } } }

    - I was thinking about solving this problem and I found that I could go from the compose screen to activity with intent, and I did that at the code below, but the problem is I can't back to the form to complete the rest of the questions but instead when clicking on the back button it goes to the main activity of the app

    @Composable fun SignatureQuestion(question: QuestionModel, formViewModel: FormViewModel) { val context = LocalContext.current CustomInputFieldContainer( isRequired = question.is_required, label = question.question_title ) { Button( onClick = { val intent = Intent(context, SignatureActivity::class.java) intent.putExtra("question", question) context.startActivity(intent) }, contentPadding = PaddingValues(), modifier = Modifier.background(Color.Yellow) ) { Row( modifier = Modifier .fillMaxWidth() .wrapContentSize(Alignment.BottomCenter) .padding(vertical = 10.dp), verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically ) { Icon(imageVector = Icons.Filled.Edit, contentDescription = null) Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(8.dp)) Text(text = "Add Signature") } } } }

    Could anyone help me solve this problem?

    Would it be possible to replace the notification LED by addressing a tiny portion of an OLED screen while the screen is off?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 12:50 PM PDT

    Personally I know nothing about developing for this kind of hardware or android in general. I just happened to have this idea while checking if my Pixel 3a has a notification LED, which it doesn't :( My main question was would this impact energy efficiency? Or does screen power consumption overshadow the rest of the hardware you'd have to turn on so much that this wouldn't be an issue?

    Create Android app from open source C++ code

    Posted: 31 May 2021 09:56 AM PDT

    I am a K12 SysAdmin who fell in love with Veyon last year. Sadly, they don't have an official version for ChromeOS and we just switched to Chromebooks for the upcoming school year.

    I know a bit of web dev (PHP, React, Bootstrap, etc.), but I don't know the first thing about C++ and I don't have time to learn. On a scale of 1 to Crazy, how wild of an idea is it to port this C++ program to Android? Their repo is on Github. Any input is appreciated.

    Posted: 31 May 2021 12:50 AM PDT

    Im Adrian, 35 years old, im form UK, from Poland originaly.

    In the past i went to Uni in Poland doing my Computer Science. Because life is life i had to drop Uni on 3rd year(still had one year to go..) and get normal job to provide for family. Moved to England 11 years ago.

    Last year, beginning of first lockdown, i decided that i want to switch career and become Android developer, i love to spend my time behind desk typing code.

    I started learning on my own. YT, than i completed Udacity`s Android Developer nano-degree in Java, than i switched to Kotlin and finished Udemy`s course, Complete Android Development in Kotlin.

    Right now i`m finishing Udacity`s Android Developer nano-degree in Kotling. i learned a lot, still a lot to go.

    More i learn more i don`t know..

    Got knowledge in Kotlin`s: MVVM, DI, Testing, Retrofit, Room, Coroutines, Clean Architecture, Separation of concerns, Material Design and etc.

    I`m currently learning Compose. And i obsoletely love it :)

    So my question is. What should i do now? i was thinking about finding a Mentor so he/she can push me in the right direction and prepare me for getting my first job. How to get Mentorship?

    What`s your thoughts? Any help appreciated.

    Android Studio AVD not running the app in Macbook air M1. Emulator (API S) is opening up but it's not running the application.

    Posted: 31 May 2021 06:00 AM PDT

    I'm making the memory game application using Kotlin and was running the emulator preview earlier but I wanted to add pictures in the emulator from my laptop but I couldn't do it using the drag and drop process (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2DBDZKkLss 2:10:10). Then I saw that there has been an update for android studio and I updated it to 4.2.1Now the emulator is opening up but it's not opening the application. Can anyone help me with this? I'm new to android.

    Thanks

    Most reliable way to detect slow mobile data?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 03:33 AM PDT

    Disclaimer: not a Java programmer, I'm just hacking together some procedures for tasker.

    German mobile data coverage is crap. In order to reduce the suckiness of this patchwork coverage, I got 2 SIMs and want to swap between them whenever anything slower than LTE is available on the active SIM.

    So far I've been using TelephonyManager->getDataNetworkType and if it's not 13, swap.

    However, it can sometimes take up to 2km of driving in slow cells until the phone notices the change, hence my question:

    Is there a more reliable way to detect slow mobile data that doesn't sometimes take minutes to relay the change?

    Is it possible to run an android device headless and access remotely (physical screen disabled)

    Posted: 30 May 2021 07:38 PM PDT

    I'm trying to do some quite unique things with a phone placed on a moving train, so I won't have easy physical access to it.

    Things like record videos up to 12 hours long, record GPS tracking data as it moves, remote access the files it creates (with help from a VPN), as well as remote access the device itself. I'm fairly confident in creating servers and in theory, all this should be possible.

    I'll be powering the device from a solar panel, or solar generator/external battery if needed but I'm hoping to find a phone which has a large enough internal battery that just a 5v solar panel will suffice. To get the most out of it, it would make sense to disable the physical screen of the phone as I won't need it. Is this possible, even if I need root access?

    Android Material Design jobs

    Posted: 31 May 2021 01:35 AM PDT

    Hello everybody :) As the title says, do you think there is a demand for Android Material Design? I learned basics of Java and than I learned basics of Android development, but mostly I want to learn (Front end development?) how to design apps... not the functionality, just the designs. By that I mean, icons, logos, efects (swiping, hover, etc.),... The raw Java code is great thing, but the design... the design is the first thing everyone sees when it tests the app for the first time...

    Would appriciate for all your help :) Regards! Erik

    Android OS Version Market statistics?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 12:29 AM PDT

    Hey Developers,

    I'm trying to find out the market share of specific Android versions in a specific country non-US.

    I did search online but nothing came up, I don't have my app on the Google store yet so I can't understand what version my target users are mostly using.

    Is there a site that I can use to plan ahead on my app os support?

    P.S: Android studio built-in tool is too broad, I need something that can show the market share for a specific country

    Offering a clipboard manager as a SAAS

    Posted: 31 May 2021 12:49 AM PDT

    Hi guys,

    I have developed a clipboard manager for Android. As you know, based on google's restrictions, only apps that are the default ime have full access to the clipboard. I reused code for an ime and added that into my app. My app is basically a clipboard manager and a keyboard app.

    I would like to offer this clipboard manager as a service to other ime apps. Is this possible? The service would need to get access to the user's clipboard data for this to happen.

    I am looking for advise from experienced developers who can tell me how I can achieve this integration.

    Writing Apache Parquet Files

    Posted: 30 May 2021 04:32 PM PDT

    Hi, I've been trying to write parquet files on android for the past couple of days, and have really been struggling to find a solution. My original hypothesis was to just use the java parquet implementation (https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr), but I've since realized that not all java libraries play well with Android. I've gone through essentially dependency hell trying to franken-fit the library into my project, and imported as much as i could before hitting walls such as this one (https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/841).

    Does anyone know how I might be able to implement a parquet file writer in Android?
