| Anyone not get their admob payment this month? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 05:12 AM PDT I received my payment on the 15th for IAP but have not received ad income. I'm assuming it's because of this covid business.. [link] [comments] |
| Have details of a person and have to register it to a server whose endpoint I'm given. Posted: 23 Mar 2020 07:45 AM PDT Hi guys. So I have done basic android development using Java. I've got a task now to register a person whose information I have( name, number etc) to a server whose endpoint is given. Do I need to build an API or should I use some API to do this? Just point me in the right direction guys. Thanx! [link] [comments] |
| Refactoring a bloated repository Posted: 23 Mar 2020 09:18 AM PDT I have an MVVM architecture and am using the repository pattern (pulls from localdatasource [Database] and remotedatasource [ApiService]) with RxJava2. As the application has grown in complexity some of the functions in the Repository class are doing some more complex Rx chains with different operators used. As the responsibility starts to grow in the Repository what suggestions do you have to maybe break up this logic? Should the complex logic move to another class? Should another class inject the Repository in it? Or something else… [link] [comments] |
| Follow up: Transferring app to new Play account, what happens with purchase validation API calls? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:38 PM PDT As outlined in this post I was wondering when transferring apps between Google Play Developer accounts, what happens with the existing Google API Console project? Will in-app purchases just start failing until the new account creates and deploys its own API Console project? Does the old project get linked to the new account? Well, I grit my teeth and jumped in. The transfer went through within about 8 hours (on a Sunday)... at which point we started seeing errors in the server logs and the Google API console. Nobody could purchase our app anymore. We also couldn't process renewals. Fantastic. Even though I added the new account owner as the owner of the Google Play Android Developer API project, Google did not transfer the link to the new account. This resulted in 403 errors saying:
We unlinked the old account and linked the new one, and gave the correct service accounts access. Even after doing so, we still had errors. Finally, we added a dummy managed in-app purchase, inactive, to the apps under the new account. The errors went away, and we were able to then delete the dummy in-app purchase. Google really needs to do a better job with this process, but we seem to be back up and running! [link] [comments] |
| Add search to the spinner dropdown Posted: 23 Mar 2020 09:26 AM PDT Long story short, my app has been heavily using spinners to shows around 500 items, now I want to add search functionality to the spinner, my best bet was to use any lib but all the lib out there incorporated search into the dialog form of the spinner instead of the dropdown version, the other way around is to use autocompletetextview to achieve the desirable result, I was wondering if there is an easy solution of simply adding search functionality to the existing spinner dropdown.

| Posted: 23 Mar 2020 09:10 AM PDT Hi guys, in the last days we've been seen doing random challenges to keep us busy during the quarantine. Following the mindset, I have a challenge for you! You have until day 31/03/2020 at 23:59 to create the most simple and random game you can imagine. Now we'll see who's the best developer :p See you in 7 days! [link] [comments] |
| Using Dynamic Entries For MPAndroidChart Posted: 23 Mar 2020 08:38 AM PDT Is there a way to set a variable as the entry data? How can I refresh the Pie Chart? Here's an idea of what I'm trying to go for and what I've done so far: Not The Actual Code The problem is that "var" stays 0 on the pie chart, despite its value changing.I tried to Log it to make sure that it's changing, it is, but it's not updating on the chart Thank you.

| How do you get context into ViewModel? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 04:30 AM PDT Is extending AndroidViewModel and using application context the most efficient solution? [link] [comments] |
| How much money do your apps make Posted: 23 Mar 2020 08:14 AM PDT Quick question: how much money do your apps make and does the coronavirus effect your income? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Mar 2020 04:24 AM PDT I've been trying to order list items in room database using I spent a lot of time trying to implement it but it just doesn't work, I searched a lot but everyone is just implementing swiping and ignoring the dragging. [link] [comments] |
| Architecture for connecting touch events and openGLES (for pinch/scale, drag/pan)? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 04:19 AM PDT The effect is as in maps or a browser or an image viewer, where you can pinch-zoom and drag-pan. I do it by handling pinch/drag events, then scaling and translating a matrix accordingly, which is applied in a vertex shader. It's all working -- but the communicating is very awkward: from Is there a standard way to do it? Thanks for any pointers! [link] [comments] |
| Handling the lint annotation: Requires api lvl 26 (current min 21) Posted: 23 Mar 2020 07:53 AM PDT Currently I'm using a mix of if elses and extension functions to deal with those lint annotations. Mostly because I want to use the most recent way of coding (eg: ColorUtils.argb(...)) and at the same time enable the app to a maximum of users. This seems so inefficient. I feel like a need to learn everything in two different ways while one is going to be forgotten (deprecated) anyway. [link] [comments] |
| AndroidX camera in production? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 03:20 AM PDT Hello, I hope you all doing well :) We are planning to switch Fotoappart library for camerax, due to dropped maintenance of that library and some errors occurring in phones like Nokia. Here is an error example. However, I doubt that it is still production-ready (even though that API is beta now) and will not cause issues (we only care about taking pictures , not vide recording) .. Working with camera API, we have encountered various issues, like black previews, crashes, strange lifecycle issues ant etc.. Perhaps someone has been using androidx camera for a while and can share their experience? Also, maybe I should rather use CameraView? Seems the most stable and maintanable currently, while CameraKit and Fotoapparat seems dead :( [link] [comments] |
| Handling in-app update's various error scenarios Posted: 23 Mar 2020 06:41 AM PDT I have seen a lot of apps now having in-app updates. I am implementing only IMMEDIATE flow and want to properly handle these error's mentioned here:https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/play/core/install/model/InstallErrorCode.html But I am unable to properly incur from some of the error codes and what's the best way to handle those. Given that we need to force the update to the user. Example: The In-App Update API throws Secondly, If API is not available and I need to have a fallback mechanism in place using a Firebase Remote Config to check if an update is available. Then, why not just go with the Remote config approach only. [link] [comments] |
| Is FAN banner placement practically impossible to use in mediation? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 01:53 AM PDT Hey, did anyone have luck using Facebook Audience Network banner ads with AdMob? I had >200k impressions, 76% fill rate, 1,48 CTR and that didn't pass FAN quality check. Support is useless, as they point to guidelines, which are useless. [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:50 PM PDT Hiya, I want to to the hard-reset from boot-menu when the Blackberry-key2 powerup, before the android system even starts. Thus I tried all below but didn't work: Enter Recovery Mode on your device. To enter the recovery mode, hold the power button, home button, and volume up button altogether. The device will load in Recovery mode when powered on. Recovery mode gives you the option to clear the system cache and data from your device. This option is labeled as 'Wipe Cache partition' and 'Wipe Data Partition'. In this stage, you should use the Volume buttons to navigate. Here is a link to how to enter Android-Recovery> Wipe-Data and Wipe-Cache from boot-menu, hard-Reset if you still don't get what I mean: https://drfone.wondershare.com/erase-android/wipe-cache-partition.html and I do similar key combination like this I mentioned ion above paragraph on all of my Motorola phones and its work. But now I get a Blackberry-key2 and its not working? I understand that its possible to enter a soft-reset by entering from the Android-OS actually from system-menu inside android. But this is Soft-reset and its not an actual hard-reset that I want to enter Wipe-Data and Wipe-Cache from boot-menu itself. How shall I do the hard-reset from the boot-menu or android-recovery menu? Here some picture about it online to give you an idea what I mean: https://techviral.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Wipe-cache-partition.jpg https://techviral.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Wipe-System-Cache-Partition-On-Android.png May please help me to enter this android-recovery in the Blackberry-KEY2? Note: The device is 128GB/6GB one and I bought it in Germany? Tnx and best of luck [link] [comments] |
