    Android Dev - App is rejected again and again SMS_SEND and READ_CALL_LOG permission

    App is rejected again and again SMS_SEND and READ_CALL_LOG permission

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 02:52 AM PST

    Hello for a few days now I have a problem with publishing app on Play Store. My application is created to send your preset SMS message to a contact when you miss a call automatically. I don't know which policy case I need to click.

    Rejecting issue from Play Store: Issue: Violation of Permissions policyAfter reviewing your app, we found that it doesn't qualify to use the requested permissions for the following reason(s):

    Requested permissions do not match core functionality of the app You declared Device Automation as the core functionality of your app. However, after review, we found that your app does not match the declared use case(s). Learn more about permitted uses and exceptions. Please either: • Make changes to your app so that it meets the requirements of the declared core functionality or, • Select a use case that matches your app's functionality

    Thank for every answer 😊

    Can I upload an APK+OBB signed with upload key to Google Play when the signing key is generated by Google?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 07:29 AM PST

    I have accidentally selected "Let google manage app signing key" when I try to upload my first AAB internal track. Now my app's app signing key is generated and stored by Google, I don't have access to it. I can't build and upload AAB to Google Play because the size of the build exceeds 150MB. My question is: can I upload an APK+OBB file to Google Play for release? If the APK was signed by my keystore, which is my upload key, will it be resigned by Google's auto-generated keystore? Thanks a lot.

    Should I start to Leetcode before applying for my next Android Dev Job?

    Posted: 27 Feb 2021 12:42 PM PST

    Few things about me for context.

    I am currently working as Senior Developer, with almost 3 years of professional experience on Java/kotlin. Besides this I am also okayish at React Native and Swift and contribute to open source passionately.

    Now I am looking for a change of job. I am looking to apply to couple of companies in Germany, UK and NL and I am sure I'd fail miserably even if they give me an easy Leet code problem .

    Till date, I actually avoided companies who had an interview based on my knowledge on Algorithms but I think I can't avoid it anymore.

    I am overwhelmed with the amount of resources on solving competitive coding problems and feel very low these days. I don't know where to start. Please recommend me a good source to begin with.

    Also I would like to know if you guys find an actual use case for these "algorithm problems" while specifically developing for android?

    Can I remove IntelliJ IDEA Android plugin?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 08:20 AM PST

    Hi all, so I recently updated my IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition to 2020.3.2. I was looking in the plugins and noticed the Android plugin and Smali Support plugin. The description for the Android plugin says, "Supports the development of Android applications with IntelliJ IDEA and Android Studio", which to me makes it seem like the plugin is necessary if you have AS installed on your system.

    In googling whether I could remove the Android plugin, I found this archived reddit thread on the same board here. So, it looks to me like there's no problem with having both AS and IntelliJ IDEA CE installed on my system. But, I just want to clarify that I can remove the IDEA Android plugin (and Smali Support plugin) and still have AS work fine?

    A bit about my dev situation: I'm still learning and getting into programming and dev in general. I have AS and have used it to develop some Java apps for a couple of online courses. I also have IDEA and plan to use it for an online course about Kotlin (in general, not specific to Android dev). Basically, I would probably use AS for any future Android app dev, and IDEA for general future Kotlin/Java and possibly Scala if I ever get around to learning it. Based on this, I should think removing those two IDEA plugins would be fine. But I don't want to screw up my AS install.

    Analysing offline logs

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 04:04 AM PST

    I need to analyse logs written to the external files directory) from an app not connected to adb. Anyone know of a good grep / highlighting tool for this? I don't think I can use the Grep Console plugin which I've used a little in Android Studio with a connected device. Any ideas?

    Development tools(s) for graphics app

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 05:59 AM PST

    Hello, I am looking for recommendations for a tool or tools that will enable me to build a graphics app cross platform android and ios. I'd like to be able to build circles with sphere like effects and place them on a canvas and draw connecting lines/slim rectnagles between them. This isn't a flowcharting or business-related app. I'd like to be able to have the spheres apopear to be rotating and similar effects. Also a way to interact to freeze the display at any point. Looking for ideas.. Thanks..

    What are the modern alternatives to run python scripts (or other language scripts) for example on native Android?

    [Kotlin] Easy way to import property extension?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 02:05 AM PST

    I love this little property extension (I'm new to Kotlin but goddamn if it ain't straight up magical):

    val Int.px: Int get() = (this * Resources.getSystem().displayMetrics.density).toInt()

    The only trouble I'm having problem with this is that it's hard to import this property extension from a different class. The usual alt+enter menu doesn't suggest a 1-click import option for this. Any recommendations on how best to do this?

    I'm currently manually typing out this import for the property extension: import com.package.library.module.px

    Is there an existing app solution for quick scanning of QR codes with subsequent POST requests?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2021 12:10 AM PST

    I'm building a web app for a client which involves ticket management for their venues.

    The problem is, they have now requested that tickets be emailed to the attendees in QR form and scanned as they enter the venue from a mobile device. This is pretty common practice nowadays. The QR code etc stuff is not a problem, I have already built the API which can take a POST request (which can be embedded in the QR code) and sign in the attendee etc when submitted, the problem is scanning speed.

    If you've ever attended a venue using something like this, you'll know that the QR codes are generally displayed on the attendees phones (or printed) and scanned with an app by venue staff, which upon scanning, returns a green or red tick which shows the operator whether the ticket is valid, and the staff member is able to quickly move onto the next attendee.

    Without an app, I could of course just have them scan with a generic reader and return a response/the ticket result (green tick red tick etc) on a web page, but this will be far too slow and cumbersome; they need instant, streamlined feedback to be able to quickly move onto the next attendee.

    I am looking for any ideas that might allow us to do this without me having to push them for more budget to develop a companion scanner app for the web app. Are there any existing QR apps that might allow for configurable feedback/response display from an API, or any other ideas on how to tackle the problem? If push comes to shove, they have the budget to develop a companion app, just exploring other options first as time is a factor. Any help is appreciated.

    EDIT: When looking around there was only one app I found that actually seems to be able to display a response from the server in a timely manner:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scanner.kataykin.icamesscaner.free&hl=en&gl=US

    It does what I need, the only problems are

    1) development looks abandoned 2) the response it gives is difficult to see, and is text only, not as obvious or idiot proof as a big green tick.

    How Approachable Is Compose For Beginners/Juniors?

    Posted: 27 Feb 2021 04:10 PM PST

    I am just learning about Compose and how it all works. I have done a lot of Flutter in the past, and found it very beginner friendly. But to be honest I wasn't sure how Flutter was working under the hood code wise.

    I have some juniors on my project and want to introduce Compose. But it feels like a lot to take in since it involves a deep understanding of lambdas and functions.

    Sometimes I think Kotlin can go a bit overboard with its syntax and it starts to feel like magic since it is so different than normal syntax. But that may just be because it is new to me also.

    Any juniors/beginners out there looking at Compose? Maybe it is easier to understand than basic XML, but it has been awhile since I learned XML and it feels so simple to me now.

    I'm having the same issue as described in the old posts below. Starting the emulator causes the Bluetooth audio to sound terrible. It was fixed according to the issue tracker. But, I am experiencing the same issue after updating the Android Emulator to 30.4.5 (February 23, 2021). Anyone having this issue?

    Man Don't Fap : Streak Based Wallpapers - Recently updated at Feb 21, 2021

    Fap Watch 2 - Stop Porn Addiction - Suspended

    Reason for suspension: use of profane terms. That term is 'fap'. If you didn't read the above text. READ AGAIN!

    If asked I can give more details. Right now, I'm just trying to get over this slap in the face by the PlayStore.

    Just be careful. You might be the unlucky one.

    Best practices for using guidelines

    Hi all, I created a collage view using both horizontal and vertical guidelines and it was pretty straightforward to implement, but the xml file is pretty gnarly since I have 5 guidelines. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to make xml more readable when you're using guidelines? Here is my code: https://gist.github.com/rholmgren/13bd1d4a984fdcc0042b24a7136cf733

    When should you use native icons, and when should you use custom icons?

    Posted: 27 Feb 2021 01:19 PM PST

    When should you use native icons, and when should you use custom icons?

    I'm currently developing an app that will use GPS, and I've been wondering whether it's better to use the custom icon I created or to use the native android icon. This is how it would look with the native icon:

    native current location icon

    and this is how it would look with my custom icon:

    custom current location icon

    I've read somewhere that sometimes it's better to use words instead of icons because it's easier for the user to interpret, and I think that it applies here too since anyone who uses android will be familiar with the latter icon than the former.

    However, I also want the app to stand out and be memorable, and I was thinking that maybe the custom icon would help.

    What are your thoughts? Should I go native or custom?
