    Keigen: A Kotlin library for fast matrix operations and linear algebra built on the C++ Eigen library

    Google Play faces issues with indexing new Apps. But doesn't answer after more than 2 months and thousands of reports from developers.

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 11:39 AM PST

    Anyone here whose app got indexed in Play Store?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 06:06 AM PST

    I wanted to release an app like a month ago, but then I started seeing these posts which say apps aren't getting indexed, so I postponed it. Seems like google will be google and will always treat devs like shit and won't answer our questions.

    So is there someone here whose new app got indexed in Play Store? Should I risk uploading the app now and then spend money marketing it, or should I wait until we hear something positive?

    Edit: Just want to know this to see if ALL the new apps are not getting indexed, or it's just a problem with some apps.

    Everytime I open Android studio, it opens a blank new instance that does nothing and uses all RAM

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 09:17 PM PST

    This windows open alongside my main window that contains current project and if I close that blank instance my whole Android studio gets closed. Any solution? I have reinstalled AS, reverted back to previous version but the problem persists.

    [CI/CD Noob] How should I trigger a release?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 08:18 PM PST

    Hi, I'm trying to learn CI/CD, my previous setup (as a solo developer) was to run tests before release manually.

    i.e. I had a gradle buildAppRelease task which did 1. clean, 2. run unit tests 3. run lint 4. assembleRelease

    However so when I had my release branch stabilized as I'd like, I just ran gradlew buildAppRelease and everything was ran and apks generated if everything was passing.

    Now, I'm trying to do a CI/CD (running unit tests every commit into master works as expected and is cool), and I'm struggling to figure out how would I'd do this exact release thing but on a CI. Basically what the issue is that CI wans to run my whatever every commit, I did figure out how to run different task if on a release/* branch, so for example lint is not run on master etc, but still it wants to run the buildAppRelease task every commit in the release branch, which takes forever and is not necessary (and I'm looking to add firebase test lab tests into this and it would get costly I think)

    TLDR; how can I tell CI, "hey I want to release now, run full checks and assembleRelease" (and make the apks available for download? (If not deploy the apk for now). As opposed to unit tests only every master commit)

    // PS: using github actions

    Thanks!

    We have a lot of Fake Orders by the robot on Android App

    We have a lot of Fake Orders by the robot on Android App

    Hi all

    I have an e-commerce app that selling cosmetics. Last weeks we start to work with an "A.I Marketing company" and they charge us a fee base on order (CPO). They are Legal company, contract signed. We use third party tracking: Adjust.

    When they starting to run, we received a lot of fake order from robot and its come from android devices.

    -No meanning name

    -Fake number

    -Delivery address not exist.

    I would like to ask anyone here experiences the same?

    We already have a solution is using OTP SMS sending to register's phone number to verify the real person or robot. However, I would like to ask why it happens, what could be the reason someone creates a robot to do this.

    The A.I marketing agree and recommend us to use OTP SMS to verify so they may not be the cause.

    Picture bellow: some fake name and the address the bot uses to create order.

    Order created few second after register.

    How to give a paid app away, outside of the 500 promotional codes per quarter?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 01:48 PM PST

    I have a paid app on the Google Play Store. Someone wants to give my app away for free to 5,000 members of their service (not employees, just members from all over the country). Someone else has sponsored this effort and given me enough money for 5,000 of these apps (2.5k Android and 2.5k iOS).

    With iOS, I can use the money to purchase 2.5k apps using the Volume Purchase Program. I can then distribute the codes that I purchased with the sponsor money to the members. Easy.

    With Android, is there anyway I can do a similar thing to what I am doing with iOS? I know I can make promotional codes but I can only do 500 every quarter. What about the other 2,000? Is there a way I can purchase 2,500 codes for my app on the Google Play Store to give out to these members, like I can with iOS?

    Let's unite and hack google

    Posted: 07 Dec 2019 01:40 AM PST

    Everybody is talking about Google's market manipulation by not showing apps in the search. Since we are all devs, we should unite and hack Google together so our apps are showing up in the play store again!

    How can I use Apostrophe in my app's name?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 10:42 AM PST

    Edit: The problem does not happen on a blank project. I guess something is broken in my project.

    I'm struggling to find a way to publish an app with Apostrophe in its name.

    I've checked a number of posts and even Android's documentation on how to escape the Apostrophe on the strings.xml but they are always mentioning regular strings used within the app. There's no mention for special rules for a string referenced by android:label attribute of application tag in AndroidManifest.xml.

    I tried writing the name with apostrophe directly in Android.xml and also referencing a escaped apostrophe in strings.xml. In both cases when I generate the apk and install on an emulator or on a device, the icon to open the app displays the unescaped character: \'.

    Even when I try to uninstall the app the system message ("are you sure you want to uninstall ...") shows in the title the unescaped character.

    My files are both UTF-8 encoded.

    I've downloaded the APK for a game called "Lep's World" which I installed and confirmed that it displays the apostrophe correctly. I got its manifest and resource xml with apktool only to find that the app name is directly on the manifest.

    So, how can I replicate that?

    Thanks for helping.

    [Question] Can apps like Taobao still get my non-resettable device identifiers on Android 10?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2019 01:09 PM PST

    This is not dev related news but I think nobody knows this better than you guys.

    So there's this new feature of Android 10 "Restriction on non-resettable device identifiers" (https://developer.android.com/about/versions/10/privacy/changes#non-resettable-device-ids)

    And I installed apps like Taobao(if you don't know it's alibaba for Chinese locals) on my phone running xiaomi.eu rom Android 10 version. It still asks for phone call permission and stated it's because they need your IMEI IMSI number "for your own safety", and it will quit once you choose to denied the permission. So my question is simple, if I choose allow, can they get my IMEI? or do the just get null instead?

    According to the link I provided, "apps must have the READ_PRIVILEGED_PHONE_STATE privileged permission in order to access the device's non-resettable identifiers, which include both IMEI and serial number." How do I know which App has that privileged or not?

    Thanks for replying.
