    I want to localize an application

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 07:34 AM PST

    I want to have experience in localizing an android app. My knowledge on program development is almost zero but I know that I should get a string.xml file to localize an Android App. How can I find those files or people who would like to share their applications' string.xml file?

    Build your own soundboard application

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 02:59 AM PST

    Hello, I am new to Android development but have an idea for an app I would like to create (yes I'm aware it already exists). I would like to create a "build your own soundboard" app that will allow the user to create sound buttons with imported or recorded sounds. I am developing in android studio.

    The problem I am having is I am unsure of how to give the user ability to create a button. I am struggling to find resources online due to the massive amount of soundboard tutorials. I would like for there to be a + button that when clicked brings a popup and then results in a new button being available to click. Any guidance would be welcome and appreciated! Thanks!

    Is Firebase a solution for building an API for my portfolio sample Android app?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 06:23 PM PST

    I have pretty much completed coding my sample app which I intend to use as my portfolio to apply for entry-level Android development jobs, going down the self-learned route since I don't have a degree in computer science.

    I have completed everything except storing information in a repository. I could just make the repository offline and included directly in the app, but I don't want to make the app to be too basic. I want to make my app a little more advanced to impress employers, and so I plan on having the repository placed in a server on the Internet for the app to then fetch the information from it through the use of APIs.

    I am still googling for solutions at the moment. One possible solution I see is to create a whole web application using Ktor - since it's a Kotlin-based framework that I can code using Intellij IDEA, but I remembered something about Firebase.

    Sorry if this is a noob question, but would Firebase be the solution if all I want is to put a database there, set up an API, and get a API key for my Android app to use?

    creating custom layout overlaps in android

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 03:32 AM PST

    I wanted to create a Navigation bar like drawer that held some custom resources and custom widgets which would allow me to put them using constraint layout but this is not provided by android.

    How do people create their custom libraries to do that? For example consider this navigation bar(check time code 1:15), it consists of a custom transformation for it's layout, manages layout overlaps and stuff like that. He gives a source for that here.

    Please give me a pointer how is this acheived or what knowledge is required to be able to do this. I'm willing to do my bit of research but I don't know where to start or what is used in achieving this. Is it done using OpenGL ES? Canvas drawings? ANY HELP AT ALL would be *greatly* appreciated.

    What is currently the best ad provider for games besides admob or UnityAds ?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 09:33 PM PST

    I have been using unity ads since December, and the revenue was extremely inconsistent (one day alone I got 13$ for few impressions and other days I get almost nothing for 10 times higher impressions for the same countries)and overall performing low. I even notice unity ads isn't even registering a lot of the completed rewarded video ads or impression.

    I have the game both for iOS and Android, and I have players from various types of countries (from western countries like USA,France and Canada to developing asian countries like the Brazil,Phillipines).

    The unityAds team aren't providing a satisfactory reply and keeps saying i need larger impressions to let their algorithms work better for the game. Even when there are multiple Americans and Canadians watching a complete rewarded ad per day, my total revenue per day is an abysmal 0.2$. I use both Interstitial and Rewarded ads.

    I'm looking into changing ad networks at this point. Admob isn't an option. Is Facebook Audience Network any good ?

    Does anyone know to make an overlay layer intercept all non-scrolling action event, and dispatch only scrolling event to children?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 02:02 AM PST

    I wish to achieve the following effect similar to Todoist - https://youtu.be/EoL0sQRYQe4

    As you can see, when the floating action button is tapped, the following will happen

    1. A semi-transparent overlay layer shown
    2. Tap event will not transfer to the child components behind the overlay layer. The overlay layer will handle the tap event, by hiding itself.
    3. Scroll event will scroll the child components (In this case, it is RecyclerView)

    I had tried the following approach - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60296160/how-can-a-viewgroup-intercept-all-non-scrolling-action-event-and-dispatch-only

    But, it doesn't work well.

    If you have achieved the similar effect, and know the correct way to do so, can you share your idea/ suggestion with me?

    Thank you very much!

    Runtime button creation?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 06:38 PM PST

    Hey folks, I'm not really sure how to ask this but here we go.

    I am making a workout logging app for my semester-long project. I'm not sure how to research this question I have so I figured I would type it out here.

    I want the user to be able to, well, create a workout. They will populate this workout with various exercises that they select. When they are done creating the workout, I want to add to the home screen in either a list or grid view a new button that corresponds to the workout they just created. The button will simply display the text of the name of the workout they made. Once they click on that button, it will take them to that workout (which likely consists of little more than text views and various pickers), and then allow them to "Start Workout", where they can put in their weight, reps, sets, and so on.

    Assuming all that sounds dandy, I'm not sure how to go about it. I'm not really sure what to be searching.

    TL;DR: I suppose my question is: how do I allow "runtime creation" of buttons? Such that when the user puts makes their new workout, it grabs the name they put into it and uses it for the text in a text button, and then adds said button to the home page? Furthermore, need I even concern myself with buttons? Am I asking the wrong thing, and are there things other than buttons that can bring one to a new activity?

    Gosh I'm terrible at wording these questions but I hope that makes sense.

    Anyone able to use pseudoLocalize feature of android?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 08:47 PM PST

    I have enabled English [XA] on my phone placed it on top of English and added this code to my build.gradle

    android { ... defaultConfig { ... // I added en_XA because without it the strings.xml file in values-en-rXA would not be generated. resConfigs "en", "en_XA" ... } buildTypes { debug { pseudoLocalesEnabled true } } } 

    When I run my app I don't see it being pseudoLocalized and I don't get why!!! I see some of the system alert dialogs being pseudoLocalized and some of the settings but not everything. Am I missing something?

    After I decompiled the apk I saw under res folder "values-en-rXA" that contains strings.xml with all the strings pseudoLocalized but its not being loaded.

    Can't get android SDK in Syria! :(

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 11:16 PM PST

    I love to code and love to make my own android apps, but the fact I can't even get the android SDK or to go to the android studio website to download android studio is something hard to live with.

    I do not want to make a commercial app or even publish to google play (banned here also).

    So where and how to get android SDK because even with VPN (free ones because the paid one won't work here either) - ? I tried to use flutter and managed to get the Chinese version of dart SDK and the fluter file to work on VS code, now I need at least the SDK to test and try the app on my device and even Gradle won't download its file here.

    note: managed to download SDK files but it won't open the SDK manager to download any of the API for android so I download another IDE for android to make it handle the SDK which does not work because it is banned here...

    Please help! just a little dude wants to code here :(

    I'm making a simple flashcard app, just to help me practice stuff like SQLite and to flesh out my portfolio a bit my for when I start applying for junior positions. I'm just awful at creating UIs, so any criticism that would help me getting along the right way would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    This is snapshot of some of the UI so far...

    Desktop Entry for Stable And Preview version of Android Studio [Linux]

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 09:20 AM PST

    Desktop Entry for Stable And Preview version of Android Studio [Linux]

    Android Studio allow to create desktop entry from "Tools->Create Desktop Entry", but if you try to do it with two versions of IDE (Stable, Preview) at the same time, desktop entry will be overridden

    And i'd like to share solution and make two versions available from desktop:

    For Stable version you can use "Tools->Create Desktop Entry"

    For Preview version you can use this files: gist

    Edit files with your properties, put them at one folder and run sudo ./create_desktop_entry.sh

    Result:
