Android Studio 4.1 icon for Windows without the white background disc Posted: 23 Nov 2020 05:22 AM PST If you're like me and disliked how the AS 4.1 update added the Androidesque white disc background to the icon, you might like this altered ICO file that enlarges the main icon and removes the background: Finally an encouragement to the Android developer team: please follow the design guidelines of the host OS, not the target OS.

Simulating WiFi device in emulator with mac80211_hwsim kernel module Posted: 23 Nov 2020 05:50 AM PST I am looking to simulate an additional WiFi device in a rooted android emulator (to simulate a device my company makes). So far I have found the linux kernel module, If this is in fact the right way forward, once I create some more channels for that kernel module, I want to be able to connect to a program on my local computer after connected to this other WiFi network (similar to how Does this sound reasonable and does anyone have some tips going forward? It's been challenging to find information that is relevant to Android in this area. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 23 Nov 2020 12:47 AM PST Hello everyone, I want to transfer my applications to another google account, and then I have questions that I could not find on the Internet. Perhaps if they answer me well here, this article will be very useful for many.
I have already transferred the Admob and Firebase services in advance to a new account. Thank you all in advance. My app is blocked. Reason: A similar application (it is not.) I wrote in support and have been waiting for an answer for more than 5 months, terrible. Because of this, I want to create a new account. [link] [comments] | ||

Is Google Play publish review being delayed due to Christmas is near? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:14 AM PST We made some hotfix on some critical bug. But it is pending for 2 days. Usually, it only take a few hours. I was wondering, is it the publishing review process being delayed, due to Christmas is near? Do you experience the same thing? [link] [comments] | ||
Update of preloaded Apps without google account Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:06 AM PST Hi folks, recently I stumbled over this blogpost https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/02/15/google-plans-to-let-preloaded-apps-update-via-google-play-even-if-you-dont-log-in/ It say's that preloadeded apps on a Android device can be updated even when the user is currently not logged in with a valid google account. My guess is that this is not valid for Apps which where installed from the Playstore? In general I found only little information about this. What is a system app / preloaded app, can I make my own system app / preloaded app, do I have to create my own ROM for it and so on. Maybe here is someone who could shed some light on this topic.

Which secondary path do you think would be more beneficial for an Android dev? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 04:05 AM PST So imagine you want to broaden your knowledge and learn new things and ideas that you can bring into your Android development from other platforms. Which one do you think would be most beneficial and why? If you choose any, feel free to share your opinion or experience about that or any specific platform or language you recommend to learn.

Translating Design to Code Battles Posted: 22 Nov 2020 06:33 PM PST I am working on an app. The designer designed the app with IOS in mind. Each step of the way in translating the design into code has been a battle. Sometimes i feel like i am losing the war.. lmao The latest war involves creating an inner blur radius and also an outer one with a specific color. It makes me wonder whether other android devs especially ones who have had years of experience also go through this If anyone has gone through this . i would love stories, it would help my troubled mind to have moment of calm [link] [comments] | ||

Recommended way to update Firebase db Posted: 22 Nov 2020 10:12 PM PST My app will register a lot of users (if it is successful) and it is all stored in the Firebase real-time DB. I will need to query the DB to look at data and give approvals. What is the recommended way to implement this? I was thinking of making an admin login in the app, where I can query the DB, I believe this is how it is commonly done. But alternatively I could query the DB directly, as a web-based solution. Would love to hear from someone with experience. [link] [comments] | ||
Weird Behavior of Fragment and ListAdapter Posted: 22 Nov 2020 05:48 PM PST Hello, have anyone of you noticed that ListAdapter doesn't show update the RecyclerView when a change in the data set happened? So in my app, a dialog fragment appears to make the user input a data, then this data is returned to its parent (an activity) and the parent's viewmodel is in charge of inserting/updating it to the room database. ListAdapter doesn't show the changes, and it needs another insert/update to show both changes to the RecyclerView, but when I use ListAdapter+startActivityForResult / notifyDataSetChanged+FragmentResult is just works fine. please be gentle, I am new to this sort of things :) [link] [comments] | ||
Does Google offers rewards for million download app ? Posted: 22 Nov 2020 02:02 PM PST I know that youtubers have a trophy for million of followers or views. Is there something like that for Android developers ? [link] [comments] | ||
Android serious games on the topic of farming Posted: 23 Nov 2020 01:03 AM PST Hi everyone! As an android game developer, I've always wanted to explore new areas in terms of topics to build games around. Therefore, me and a colleague have decided to study the impact of serious games and are taking as sample the area of farming related educative games. We are currently performing research in this regard in order to shape our next android farming game. If you can spare 3 minutes, please answer our survey for game developers at: https://forms.gle/rhZsahrwfkdPbkNf8 We highly appreciate your contribution! [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 22 Nov 2020 12:24 PM PST In my personal projects I avoid it, but I've used it a fair bit at work and I dislike it quite a bit. pros: - Works well with some libraries like Epoxy cons: - Introduces additional points of failure - Reduces code flexibility - Often requires cleaning and rebuilding your app which makes productivity suffer - Doesn't really clean up your code, just offloads the mess I wonder what your impressions are. Do you like it? Do you think I'm mistaken and/or missing the point or is DataBinding as annoying for you as it is for me. [link] [comments] | ||
A question for experienced devs: Are you building apps, or simply maintaining apps? Posted: 22 Nov 2020 09:30 AM PST So many of the sources I read or study with go over the tools and skills necessary to build an app, usually something small like a news feed or a habit tracker. While understanding these concepts are surely vital to the job, are you using every single one every single day? This is an area I find many people trying to get into the industry have no perspective on, for obvious reasons. Of course it's important for people to understand XML, coroutines, Room, etc., but many people in this early position develop the misconception they need to, for instance, be able to build a multi-functional app instead of work with people to just maintain one. With that context, how should a person in this early position prepare for the workplace? I've found the Google Associate Developer certification to be a fairly reliable measurement for a junior's ability to perform, but I would love to have some greater perspective on the topic. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] | ||
