Although if you're thinking about getting feedback on an app, you should wait until tomorrow's App Feedback thread.

| Distributing .aab App Bundles to testers Posted: 15 Nov 2019 05:00 AM PST Our team has recently migrated from building .apk files to using app bundle for production distribution. Recently we added a new feature, which is implemented as an on-demand module. Currently, our testing workflow uses CI to upload builds from our PR's to Crashlytics Beta for testing, so that they can be QA'd before merging. However, this does not work for our new feature, since the Crashlytics Beta does not support app bundles, so it can't deliver the new additional .apk file. I'm not sure how best to test our app in this case. I've considered these options:
How is everyone else managing internal testing with app bundles? [link] [comments] | ||
| How are you managing conversions/mappings between DTO classes and entity classes? Posted: 15 Nov 2019 12:15 AM PST Dear Friends, normally I use room as local database and retrofit for downloading data from the backend. In some cases, I used the same class or data class to play the role of DTO for Retrofit and entity class for Room. Although this approach works, it has disadvantages. For example, in my current project, only 40% of the fields received in the DTO have to be persisted in the room database. Of course, I can ignore the fields for room with the room annotations. But if we have classes with many fields, then the code of the class starts to be messy (Jackson annotations mixed with room annotations and so on). For my next project, I would like to try the approach of having the entities separated from the DTO. This makes sense not only because not all fields have to be persisted, but also because some properties of a DTO class, may generate entities that are stored in separate tables, and although I could write converters for room to store these entities as JSON or something, that is again tricky. But the disadvantage of separating the DTO's classes from the database entity classes is the whole mapping process. And that is the question that I would like to make you: how do you manage those conversions? While developing backends with c# we use a library called Automapper for that, but I don't find a similar library for kotlin or java. Thank you in advance! [link] [comments] | ||

| Questions about new FragmentFactory. Posted: 15 Nov 2019 03:36 AM PST I've read a few articles on FragmentFactory but I still have holes in my knowledge. I understand it now gives us the freedom to use constructor injection, does this mean it's a replacement for Bundle arguments? Or is it for wider-scoped dependencies that Dagger would have previously provided, and we should still use Bundles? Also, how does it fit in with Navigation? Or does it? Is it a case that there's no recommended pattern and it's up to devs to figure it out for their own use case? [link] [comments] | ||

| Question: any good alternative to the old, deprecated tool of "UI Automator Viewer" ? Posted: 15 Nov 2019 01:20 AM PST This: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBhfYAYKZF4 Sadly it got deprecated and for some reason I fail to open it anymore (including all DDMS tools, like the "Hierarchy Viewer"). It doesn't even exist on Android Studio as it used to. Is there any good alternative to it? Now, before you tell me "layout inspector" , remember that the old tool was able to investigate all apps, and not just debuggable ones. This allowed you to investigate and learn from other apps, of how the developers of those apps decided to lay the views. It also allowed you to investigate your own apps when you have them on release mode. And, of course, it was a useful tiny tool for QA, to make automation code (finding the ids of views was useful, for example) without really having the full-blown IDE. It was very quick and light.

| Button only works once for AnimationDrawable on ImageView? Posted: 15 Nov 2019 07:45 AM PST Hello, I created an AnimationDrawable on top of an ImageView, and it executes at the click of a button. That works fine only once. If I click the button again, the animation does not run. Is there a way I can make that happen? Also, I have a default animation created on onStart() that I would like to disappear after a button is pressed, then reappear after the button press animation is over. The two tasks are: Make it happen again however many times, depending on if you click the button or not. 2) Make the default animation disappear as soon as that button is clicked, and make it reappear once the new animation has stopped. What are the relevant methods for determining the finish of an animation, and the registration of a button click? [link] [comments] | ||
| Possible to access Huawei phone with dead screen with no USB debugging activated? Posted: 15 Nov 2019 04:22 AM PST Looking to grab some data off my Nova 3i, unfortunately don't have USB debugging on so can't have my PC access it. Is there a way to turn it on with a dead screen or get around it? Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||

| Is there a way to make ImageView jump around on screen? Posted: 15 Nov 2019 02:04 AM PST I know I can use setX() and setY(), but how can I make imageView jump around the screen continuously by bounded X and Y coordinates? [link] [comments] | ||

| Did u find ASO tool useful to help you increase app downloads? Posted: 14 Nov 2019 10:19 PM PST Currently, I'm investing x amount of money in Google Ads. The paid downloads increased, but that doesn't help in term of organic download. I was thinking to invest in an ASO tool. I was wondering, does most of ASO tool in the market useful in helping you increase organic download? 1) What information they are providing, which market Android console doesn't? 2) How can I utilize those information to help me gain more organic download? Besides tweaking app description to have correct keyword, what else I can do based on information provided by ASO? Which ASO tool would you recommend? Thank you. [link] [comments] | ||
| [AOSP] Which branch is the real android 10 release branch/tag in AOSP ？ Posted: 14 Nov 2019 06:29 PM PST Hi, I'm new to AOSP repo, and I want to find the android repo release routine After reading the branch list ，I found below branch naming with android10-*
And Android 10 is said released on Sep 5, found Tags with android10*/q*
So I puzzled with these similar names， and I have some guess
Any AOSP experts could solve my questions？ Thanks！ [link] [comments] | ||
| Alternatives to using @Parcelize for kotlin only module Posted: 14 Nov 2019 07:51 PM PST I have a multi module project, and one of my modules has all my domain models in it. One of these models I want to pass between two fragments (in a fragment only app) as a part of the bundle. Since this domain So far I have seen - some wrapper class in an android module - serialize to json and send in the bundle that way Both seem non-desireable, but I am not sure what else to do [link] [comments] | ||
| What are the topics an adroid developer with 1 year of experience should know? Posted: 14 Nov 2019 12:21 PM PST Few years ago I worked as an android dev for a company in my home country for a year . Back in the day the main requirement for applying was the big motivation for android. After a year the company was shut down and I moved to different country for studies in an unrelated field. Finished the studies and currently waiting for work permit. But it has been a long since I worked as android developer and don't much about requirements for a developer with a year of experience. I recently build a simple Note app in Java using MVVM architecture , LiveData and Room using some design concepts like swipe to delete for recycler view and animated background etc. Also know a bit of Git and used Firebase for another app before but with crappy architecture. So my question is would that be enough for someone with 1 year of experience when applying for a job? Or should i dive into RxJava, Dagger, Retrofit etc considering that i'm not going for senior dev position [link] [comments] | ||
