    Exclude certain Android versions

    Posted: 29 Sep 2020 06:11 AM PDT

    My app targets Android 11, just because I don't want Google Play to stop me from updating my app. But at the moment, the core function of my app is not working on Android 11.

    Is it possible to hide my app listing from Android 11 users so that they don't end up downloading my app and reviewing "it's not working". ?

    Android Emulator on Linux seems to use Vulkan when available

    Posted: 29 Sep 2020 02:03 AM PDT

    After installing the latest emulator updates, I noticed some new warning messages popping up when I launch the emulator. They're the same messages that are printed in a terminal, when you try to use a Vulkan application with RADV (AMD Vulkan implementation) . Since I have ACO enabled, that warning message also popped up.

    However, I'm happy to report that the emulator is working fine, atleast for the ten minutes that I used it. Got to see how well it works on Intel Vulkan implementation.

    Promote from beta to production with timed release impossible? Or am I doing smth wrong?

    Posted: 29 Sep 2020 03:06 AM PDT

    Hey all,

    We have an app that has a production version and a version in the beta-channel.

    Our production entry at store-listing clearly states: "Timed release".

    Whenever I promote the beta version to production it removes the timed release and immediately releases which causes us a lot of problems because the backend hasn't been released yet.

    Is there no way to promote from beta to production and retain the timed release :-(? Or am I missing something?

    Cheers

    What technologies are essential to know for a professional Android Dev?

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 10:51 PM PDT

    Hello noob here, final year CS, I've been doing Android for the last few months if the Quarantine and I'm enjoying it so much that I may just decide to specialise in it for my career, so what do I need to know to work in the industry as a professional?

    I know that one needs to know, Java/Kotlin, XML, how Android studio works, SQL for DB and Android architecture what else am I missing? I see a lot of buzzwords when I browse this sub.

    Note that I'm not asking about all the things in Android dev i know it will impossible for a single person to know everything, just asking for the essential must-know stuff.

    Restore dynamically added view state on orientation change

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 10:37 PM PDT

    Im currently working with custom views which will be added to a layout dynamically. I understand how view states are safed and restored.

    According to the documentation, only views with an id will be persisted by the system. So the suggested solution is to use ```View.getViewId()``` in order to set an id to each dynamically added view.

    The problem is, that on orientation change, each view which gets an id via this method, will get a different id than before the orientation change happened. This prevents the view state from being restored since the ids don't match up.

    Easiest setup to try this: Add an EditText programmatically to an activity, give it an id with ```View.generateViewId()``` then enter some text and rotate. 

    Am I missing something? Is there no way to give ids to dynamically added views so that they restore themselves on orientation changes?

    Handling Bottom Navigation Stack in 2020?

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 10:41 PM PDT

    There is a SO post detailing how fragments don't retain their navigation stack (related google issue). People seem to hack the `OnNavigationItemSelectedListener` and do some hide/show stuff as a workaround.

    Using the latest Android Navigation recommended by Google, fragments are not explicitly created in the main activity like the older examples found on the stackoverflow post. Using the latest nav host, fragments are defined in the nav host file. To keep using the recommended Google patterns, should we somehow create a viewModel that records the navigation stack state for the current fragment so when the fragment is created again (as intended by google on tab click), the viewModel will just inject the next set of fragments? Or would you all consider this overkill?

    When I transfer an app to a different developer account in Google Play Store, will the app update link be maintained?

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 03:14 PM PDT

    My organization has published these apps under our own name but we need to know if it's possible to transfer them to a as-of-yet-uncreated Google Play Developer account, to be owned and administered by one of our partner organizations.

    This Google help page explains the process for doing the transfer. It states,

    When you transfer apps to a different account, your apps' users, download statistics, ratings and reviews, content ratings, and store listing information are all transferred to your new account.

    However, it does not specifically state if the update link for existing users will be maintained. We want to make sure that the existing users will be able to receive app updates, without having to delete the app they already have, and manually redownload it as a "new app."

    I checked this conversation and this one, but they don't address this question. This one comes closer but provides no real new information, since the answer is based entirely off of a supposition of the same sentence I quoted above, which does not address the topic of app updates.

    When I transfer an app to a different developer account in Google Play Store, will the app update link be maintained?

    Does anyone have experience on this matter?

    Thanks so much.

    (Note: Disclosure: I posted this question on StackOverflow but they closed it because it's not about programming.)

    Is it possible to host an Android app to a website?

    Posted: 29 Sep 2020 12:11 AM PDT

    I created a game (Android Studio, Desktop App).

    I'm planning on uploading it to the android store, which I know how to do.

    Now I also want the game to be visible/playable via a website, but I have no clue how to do that.

    Does anybody have an idea? I'm still a beginner so sorry if it is a stupid question :)

    Play Store content rating questionnaire

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 01:02 PM PDT

    Hi all, I'm currently filling the content rating questionnaire for play store listings and I'm a bit confused on how I should answer certain questions.

    A part of my app pulls movie trailers and serves them to the users directly in-app and it's not uncommon for trailers to contain violence and/or language; do I necessarily need to say that the app contains violent material or is that exempt?

    What mobile ad network pays for impressions and not just clicks?

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 06:51 PM PDT

    What's the best ad network for that? I'd want to earn something for impressions and not just clicks, I've heard people average around $20,000 for 1 million downloads. What kind of network would net me that average?

    Fire TV App

    Posted: 28 Sep 2020 10:33 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I've developed a FireTv streaming app which I've tested within amazon test environment and runs smoothly, I'm even running it within my fireTV stick without any problems.

    But when I send it to publish it gets rejected and I get this message:

    "We are unable to test your app as it does not function as intended. The app exits/ force closes/ freezes/ displays an error message after being launched. Please fix the issue and re-submit the app."

    Unfortunately the support folks at amazon don't share any further information or details and I'm quite lost on how to proceed. Does anyone have any advice or contact to share on this matter?
