    Chat Application: Persistent websocket connection

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 08:15 AM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to build an chat application. I'm using websocket to send real time data between clients but once the application is in background or not, I'm not able to receive any messages. I created a rest api as my backend of messages and other data.

    I'm thinking of sending a request to the rest api then sends the update to the connected websocket client so that the receiver client doesn't need to request again to receive the data. I'm not sure how to achieve it or what method should I use. I think it is like how push notification? but I don't want to use Firebase. So basically, there are two things I wanted to achieve but not sure where to start or what technology term I should search to get started.

    First: I want to have a persistent websocket connection, so that I'm still able to get realtime message from the server.

    Second: Quite similar to the first, which I wanted to subscribe to an endpoint then send update to the client without the client requesting it.

    Does anyone know where should I get started or what I need to do to achieve these goals? I appreciate any feedback and recommendations.

    Thank you.

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 06:52 AM PDT

    Can someone explain the technical architecture of the UC browser (Android app)?

    - can someone explain what UC browsers use under the hood,

    - Why it is relatively lightweight than other common browsers etc

    -is there a close open-source alternative out there? Where should some of the start, if they are looking to make something that works exactly like UC.

    Damn Insecure and Vulnerable Application – Walk-through (understanding common flaws in android)

    Developing an android application in MVP pattern.

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 03:49 AM PDT

    Hello, I have two questions about the application that I am developing

    Question 1:

    I have been trying to follow the MVP pattern to develop an android application. My application would have a lot of interaction with the SQL server for fetch and update operations, my question is where should I perform all the database related operations in? Do I perform it in Presenter or Model? Also I have been using AsyncTask to perform these operations.

    Question2:

    How many is the acceptable amount of frames to be skipped. I was getting 1 frames skipped but when I added an image to the activity I am getting 27 frames skipped, should I perform further optimizations or I can do without them?

    Thank you.

    Appealing for SMS and CALL_LOG permissions

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 02:35 AM PDT

    I was making an app for a couple of months now and we wanted to release it onto the playstore. It's financial related app first of it's kind for my community ( a specific country ). Turns out there is an appeal process to go through the get the permissions and due to CoVid19 I guess it will take some time.

    Anyone who went through the process recently? Or who knows the acceptance rate and possible time thing might take? Our use case is listed on the exceptions so I think it comes down to our communications skills. Do they also require to show our codebase? It would be fine unless they require us to make it opensource. Thanks

    A newbie coder trying to build something for his girlfriend!

    Posted: 04 Aug 2020 10:38 PM PDT

    Hi guys!

    So I'm 24 and I recently developed interest for coding. So far I've only managed to start a Python beginners course on YouTube and watched a couple of Android Studio tutorials. My long time girlfriend has been extremely supportive and since it's her birthday in 10 days, I thought of building something for her.

    She's been talking forever about listing down all our memories. So I've been trying to build a calendar app that allows me to add pictures, captions, comments, etc. To dates but haven't been able to find any tutorials around the same. I'd really appreciate you guys helping me out with ways, tips, tricks, tutorials - basically anything that'll help me build this app.

    Much love and many thanks in advance!!

    Best Kotlin resources for long time Java Android programmer

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 01:36 AM PDT

    Best online course, free or paid, for people that already know how to program, and already very familiar with Android, who want to switch to Kotlin? Full time dev, so don't have lots of time, I find I can read it just fine, but its about time I started writing it. I figure I should be able to pick it up pretty quickly, just hoping people can point me towards some resources they have found helpful in making the transition.

    Thanks :)

    Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) support alongside Google services

    Posted: 05 Aug 2020 12:37 AM PDT

    Hi folks.
    I'm curious how do you support Huawei Mobile Services in the application? Especially when new devices are so popular for its camera and performance and the number of app users with Huawei devices is increasing.

    1) Do you swap dependencies for non-google service users like Google maps -> Huawei Maps and all the other Google services alternatives

    or

    2) Provide basic functionality and alert them that part of the features is unavailable for them? and even suggest downloading Google Services to fully use the application

    Thanks in advance

    Splash Screen shifts up then down on cold start

    Posted: 04 Aug 2020 11:13 PM PDT

    So I created a splash screen for my app (according to this link). Everything works fine until the app cold starts or when the phone is low on memory where it takes a bit more time for the app to start than the usual.

    What happens is the splash screen moves up and then down a bit. I have tried searching for it a lot on Google and Stack Overflow and couldn't find anything concrete.

    A few links which seemed similar to my situation:
    1. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54751605/android-splash-screen-shifts
    2. https://github.com/crazycodeboy/react-native-splash-screen/issues/385
    3. https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/47634

    All the above links seem to be for React Native/Flutter whereas the project I'm working on is entirely on Native Android.

    If anyone has come across this solution or know how to solve this please do post!

    Thanks a lot! :)

    Newbie post: Admob - what are third-party mediation, house ads, and direct sold campaigns? Will these help in showing ad impressions on an account where ad serving is limited

    Posted: 04 Aug 2020 11:07 PM PDT

    Hi folks, I'm new to admob, my app has few banner ads. In the course of time, after my app went live there was an ad serving limitation placed on my admob account.

    Admob account status: Ad serving has been limited Issue: Account being assessed Duration: from past 2 months

    Due to this I hardly have any ad impressions.

    I'm not sure what are ad mediation and campaigns. Can anyone help me to understand their sole purpose and using these will it be possible to get ad impressions on my app even when I have ad serving limitation on my account.

    Thanks in Advance..
