    Here's what I was able to make with motion layout. Actually made it 5-6 months ago, but never really got to share

    Simple horizontal calendar library with multiple customisations. Only loads for one month initially, rest gets loaded upon scroll.

    How do I take over an existing project?

    Posted: 11 Aug 2020 03:04 AM PDT

    Hello everyone,

    So I am currently tasked with taking over an android project (moving from external to internal). I will be the sole developer for a while. I am tasked with handling the handover. They told me to take a look at the project but this is a pretty vague statement for me. Also because I am still a fairly new developer I've mostly worked on project where I started the project. My question is what should I "look at". Or how do I go about learning how the project works ?

    Unfortunately the project is quite big and badly structured. (The MainActivity is 1500 lines long with no documentation.) So it feels like a herculean task to "take a look at". There's also a huge load of classes. In my opinion, too many for the scope of the project.

    I was wondering if you guys had any experience and advice for this type of situation?

    Threadripper 3990x and Android Virtual Device

    Posted: 11 Aug 2020 02:53 AM PDT

    Hey guys!

    I'm working for a small app testing company (5 people only rn :) ).

    Our main work is based around app performance/ux/pen testing on android and ios., and we are looking to extend our hardware park with Threadripper powered pc's just for multithread android virtual device test.

    If anyone worked with those, they probs know that those are suuuuuper cpu resource-hungry emulators, and our current hardware (few i9-9900k) just can't multithread it properly.

    As nobody from us has any experience with AMD powered cpu and emulation (especially in android studio) we don't rly know what option to pick for scale/speed up of our work.

    So if anybody worked here with android virtual devices on threadripper and can share some insights, or could just launch one emulator with it and show screenshot of resource usage during launch (launching consume same % as heavy load) we would really appreciate it :)

    Modern Notes and Tasks app (Hopefully alternative to Google keep and Google Tasks)

    Posted: 10 Aug 2020 10:40 PM PDT

    Couple of weeks ago i posted my MarkdownEditText library, and here's a use case for it.

    Noted is a Notes and Tasks app built with Kotlin, Koin dependency injection, MVVM structure, Coroutines, Material design components And Realm database.

    You can:

    - Write Notes with text styles

    - Add and filter with categories

    - Make Tasks with reminders

    Backups will be in the next update.

    Github: https://github.com/YahiaAngelo/Noted-Android

    Contributions and suggestions are welcome.

    Pro Tip: If you don't use Google Assistant that often (or even if you do), you can configure Assistant gesture/button to launch any app (like Camera/Reddit/Instagram etc) with this open source app.

    Posted: 11 Aug 2020 12:11 AM PDT

    Disclaimer - I made this. No intent for profit (its free + no ads + open source). I just think the app itself or the source code may interest someone here.

    Download - Play Store Link

    Instead of the default assistant app, you can launch any app on your phone by performing the Assistant gesture (bottom-edge-swipe-up/long press 'home' button) or via the assistant button on some phones (like Samsung)

    A good use case for this app- quickly open the CAMERA app with the assistant gesture/button.- you don't have to stop what you are doing, minimise the current app, go to home screen, and then finally open the CAMERA app from the home screen shortcut (or worse from the app drawer).

    Also, the app is open source. You can check out its source code here.

    AMA.

    Library for image highlighting or drawing on

    Posted: 11 Aug 2020 02:40 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    Does anyone know of a good library where I can pass it a image and a piece of text (in this instance a number) and then the user can drag that number to a place in the image and then save that?

    Looking to practice Entry Level Android Development Interview Skills in Kotlin

    Posted: 10 Aug 2020 04:25 PM PDT

    Hi r/androiddev,

    I love the idea of pramp.com where I can practice my interviewing skills with other people around the world; however, I noticed that Pramp does not have support for Kotlin, which is my language of choice and is the language with which I am most familiar. Is there a site one could recommend that could give me the same functionality to practice interview questions with others while allowing me to code in Kotlin?

    Thanks in advance!

    How can I make an app's Activity stop getting onPause()?

    Posted: 11 Aug 2020 03:19 AM PDT

    I just got to know my teacher can get active status of each student during the class on Google Meet. The active status turns green only when the activity is in foreground and shown in the screen. However, if I switch to another app, Meet Activity goes to PAUSED state. How can make the Google Meet app to think that I never switched the app?

    How can Google review my app if they cannot access any screens?

    Posted: 10 Aug 2020 11:48 AM PDT

    To use my app, a user needs a physical device (that's basically the first step: scan the barcode of the device)

    So how can they review my app?

    In iOS, the developper needs to submit a "demo account" to Apple as part of their app submission.

    (I hope asking this question won't have an effect on any futur approval of my app :) )

    What are some good, comprehensive resources on Android architecture

    Posted: 10 Aug 2020 12:14 PM PDT

    I'm currently an android developer and I'm trying to advance my career. This involves advancing to the role of senior Android dev in the future. One thing I often hear that differentiates a junior and senior developer is that the senior dev should have strong knowledge of android architecture.

    I've read through this and have built my own apps that involve the standard Android arch recommendations (frag <- VM <- repo <- Room DB/retrofit), but I don't know if having read through that one guide is enough for me to say I'm "experienced" in Android architecture knowledge.

    So my questions are then:

    1) What resources/guides/experiences did you go through before you could confidently say to employers/managers that you are "experienced" in Android architecture

    2) Where can I find those resources/guides/experiences so I can focus on going down that path myself

    Thanks for any help folks

    I have an .apk file on my pc I want to install on my pixel 4

    Posted: 10 Aug 2020 07:37 PM PDT

    I want to install my .apk for an app I built (which I built as a signed build) without going through the playstore where I have to sign up and all that stuff.

    How can I drag and drop the apk file onto my pixel 4 so I can run the app on my phone?

    Thanks!

    Script to Install Android Studio on Fedora.

    Script to install the IDE with several quirks handled that I had to deal with.
