    Android Dev - I made an open-source news app then use NYTimes API as the backend

    I made an open-source news app then use NYTimes API as the backend

    This is my first open-source app. It shows top stories from different sections. It uses Kotlin and jetpack libraries.

    Pls, tell me what you think about it.

    Opening the last app programatically

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 03:40 AM PDT

    Hello,

    I have an application with a background service.
    When there is a certain signal, my application goes to foreground and shows something.

    When the signal is removed, it shall go back to the last app that was open.

    How can I do this?

    Maybe: How can I simulate double pressing the back button?

    ​

    Thanks in advance.

    When did you feel ready to accept a job as a Android developer?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 12:04 PM PDT

    This is a question especially for those who didnt learn coding at uni. How do you know you know enough? Theres always more knowledge to learn so where is that tipping point? Was there a project you did on your own that made you confident you were ready?

    Broken boot & recovery images

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 06:46 AM PDT

    Hey there, about two months ago I broke the booting partitions of my phone. Normal boot, recovery and fastboot all goes to fastboot mode, but I can still enter my phone with adb and the command "fastboot continue". I'd like to repair all my boot images. Since I can still access my phone, if there a solution requires a complete reset I can make backups. Any help appreciated.

    Too early to ditch Java from Kotlin?

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 05:01 AM PDT

    Hi everyone. First year CS student here who finished the Java MOOC except the JavaFX parts and just dove in google's android tutorials in Java. Apart from the MOOC, I don't have much experience with Java, but I do have experience with C from Uni and Python before uni. Learned a bit of OOP from GUI programming in python, but it got solidified doing Java's MOOC which was mostly easy and I do think I've got the basics down. Like I know how Abstraction, Encapsulation, Polymorphism, Inheritance, Abstract Classes, Interfaces, Anonymous Classes, Lambdas, Streams, Generics, basic unit testing and so on work. I've also recently got hold of a copy for Effective Java and Head First Design Patterns to help me write better and more efficient code. Just really want to dive into android atm and focus on that to get really used to one language and just keep making projects instead of jumping from one language to another.

    Keeping these previous points in mind, will it be too soon to ditch Java for Kotlin? Should I get more comfortable with Java first and just power through google's slightly dated android tutorials in Java? Just heard that the Kotlin ones are the only ones getting updated frequently if I'm not mistaken?

    Thanks!

    I'm the developer of ReaderForSelfoss, an open source app for an open source RSS reader, and I'm looking for contributors.

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:07 AM PDT

    Hello everybody,

    I'm the developer of ReaderForSelfoss Android app that is developed in Kotlin.

    I developed the app by myself for many years, and decided to make it completely open source, and available on FDroid some year later.

    Now, I'm finding myself having a lot less time to update the app, and I would love if anyone could help with the development of the app.

    If you want to contribute, you are more than welcome to do so ! I, and the users of the app would greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks a lot !

    Anti-Reset Rob

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 02:00 AM PDT

    I would like that they could add more security for the following functions not to allow reset of the phone by buttons or screen if you do not have the unlocking pin of the cell phone to do it. It also does not give the ability to turn off the device without the unlock pin. Do not allow the unlock pin to be accessed without the corresponding pin.

    It is now easy to steal a cell phone and to be able to restart it from the factory by pressing buttons and skipping the Security verification. This encourages crime.

    Desperately seeking lexicon

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 02:38 AM PDT

    Dear devs. I do not know how keyboard dictionaries work. I don't know what entities control their composition.

    I entreat you to include words like 'entreat'.

    Please create keyboard dictionaries/autocorrect that are not pure shite.

    It's been so many years of typing hell, lacking plurals, local place names, vernacular, any and all derivativations and vocabulary greater than the minimum that would suit and imbecilic two year old.

    Having to build huge custom dictionaries just to express things in a normal way.

    You're dumbing down the entire world, stunting people's literacy as it is!

    Play Console payment issue

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 05:04 PM PDT

    Hello fellow developers,

    In Play Console, I wanna add a payment method, but I get this message "Bank account must be located in <my\_country> and in US Dollar currency.". Now, my country does not allow holding foreign currency to its citizens, so we got that out of the way. So in my google account settings I created a new payment profile for a different country. Still the same message in Play Console. Any ideas on what I should do? I need your help please. Thanks in advance...

    Best way to do network polling

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:22 AM PDT

    I'm trying to poll a certain API (say, every 1 minute) in my app but I've been having some difficulties finding the best possible way to do polling.

    The first thing I looked at is Clouds Messaging but I do not own the server and cannot use that.

    The second thing was WorkManagers. Everything about them is great, except the fact that the minimum repeat interval is 15 minutes. That's way too long for my needs.

    The last thing that remains is using plain old services, but that will probably drain the battery more since it's not that well optimized with Doze mode etc.

    Any suggestions on how to proceed?

    CRYLOGGER detects cryptographic misuses in Android apps

    Posted: 10 Jul 2020 04:48 PM PDT

    Hi everyone! We have developed a tool called CRYLOGGER that detects cryptographic misuses in Android apps. A cryptographic misuse is an invocation to a crypto API that does not respect standard security guidelines, such as those suggested by cryptographers. For instance, CRYLOGGER can tell you if your Android app uses AES in ECB mode to encrypt multiple data blocks. CRYLOGGER runs your app with instrumented Java libraries and checks the function calls' legitimacy. CRYLOGGER does not use static analysis, so it doesn't need the code of your app.
