    ADB on android 6.0.1 device

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 11:54 PM PDT

    Hi, I dusted off and restored the hw of my galaxy s5. I wanted to use it as a secondary phone and I wanted to disable the load of background running apps which are just bloatware of stuff I do not use.

    I am using the ADB commands, in particular the ADB shell disable one, however if on android 10 (on my s10 plus) it works fine on my galaxy s5 whenever I try to enable or disable a package I get a java runtime error: access denied. Every other ADB command works except those regarding app disabling or enabling...

    The android version is 6.0.1 and it is a stock non modded non rooted version.

    So I am wondering, how different is ADB between 6 and 10? Are special permissions needed to perform package manipulation?

    What to focus on while learning Kotlin if already know Java ? for Internship

    Posted: 14 Apr 2021 05:07 AM PDT

    Hey guy,

    I just found a small dev company for my internship. They offer a position for Android Dev. using Kotlin. I am just a 2nd year computer engineering student and I used Java for Android classes. I got a week to learn about the fundamentals of Kotlin.

    I checked some tutorials and tbh, syntaxes seem pretty learnable in a short time.

    I wonder if there are more important things I should focus on learning before starting my internship or things that could possibly make me lose time while working ? I feel like it is very similar to Java (for Android dev at least) and could just find the equivalent syntax of Kotlin and use it with no problems.

    Besides, this is going to be my first professional experience and I am really curious about mobile dev. I appreciate to any advice you can give.

    Why is there nothing like Redux, Vuex, MobX, etc... for Android?

    Posted: 14 Apr 2021 07:28 AM PDT

    Maybe I'm not "getting it," but it seems there's no smooth, comprehensive state management solution for an Android app.

    Or does the question not make sense?

    Visual regression testing

    Posted: 14 Apr 2021 05:37 AM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking for a cloud service that would allow me to post screenshots from my appium tests, do comparisons on them, and present results so I can review the changes.

    The only one I'm aware of is Applitools which is pretty high on pricing, but they provide smart image comparison methods. Is it worth its price in your opinion, or are you able to achieve similar results with open-source solutions? Maybe there's some different, cheaper, cloud-based tool I'm not aware of?

    I'm also wondering if there's a big value in maintaining snapshots for many different devices? Would you just pick a couple of them that are used the most with your app? Or maybe would it be more important to you to test different versions of Android on an emulator instead? I'm wondering what is the best compromise for quality assurance and maintainability.

    I'd love to know more about this subject in general, to make sure I'm not missing something important. Thanks!

    How to predict a value using AI?

    Posted: 14 Apr 2021 03:32 AM PDT

    Hi, I want to predict when for example a user will execute an action in the app so that I can predict when to send a notification. So I figured I have to use some variables to make an accurate prediction. I've thought about the time, day of the week and day of the month.

    Where do I start from there? Can you suggest me some things which I can google?

    How much time for developers to add Google performance sdk

    Posted: 14 Apr 2021 03:14 AM PDT

    Outsourcing app to foreign developers who seems to be reluctant to install the performance SDK. Maybe worried about what performance monitoring will reveal.

    Is it relatively easy to install the performance SDK? App is already connected to Firebase, just trying to get an idea of how difficult it is to add the performance SDK.

    Estimated time?

    What are some of the new, cool, uncommon features that I can implement in an Android app ?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 11:04 PM PDT

    I found some phones have calendar and clock app icons that are dynamic that seemed quite new and uncommon to me. Not many apps implement that. Any new features like those that are worth knowing about?

    Does interstitial ads cause uninstalls?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 06:23 PM PDT

    So my app got 32k downloads and 8k active users in the period of the last three months, so I decided that it was time to start monetizing it.

    I integrated interstitial ads when the user finish customizing wallpaper(main functionality), and added an option to disable ads and unlock premium features for 3.99$.

    But I just noticed that uninstalls got higher than before ads integration, and big blogs stopped featuring my app(it got featured on Android police, Android authority and other blogs and YouTube channels) and growth was down 50%.

    So did I make a bad decision integrating ads? If so can I fix my mistake by removing ads and only stick to premium features?

    ADB unable to start Image Capture intent activity on Android 11

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 10:07 PM PDT

    The following ADB command is not working on Android 11 (works fine on older devices)

    adb -d shell "am start -a android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE" -W

    Results in

    Starting: Intent { act=android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE } Error: Activity not started, unknown error code 102

    There has been some changes in Android 11, and the solution for that is adding this to manifest

    <queries> <intent> <action android:name="android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE" /> </intent> </queries>

    Is there any equivalent for doing this in ADB?

    P.S I also added a question on Stackoverflow but got no response - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67080125/adb-unable-to-start-image-capture-intent-activity-on-android-11

    Do I need to use SQLite if I'm using Firebase?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 09:31 PM PDT

    I'm building a group chatting app with Firebase. One example of an action that a user can take is to create a group and then add a user to that group.

    Since I want to build a very secure app, I am building most of the processing on the server side. For this particular example, the user submits a name for the group, i.e. Cool Kid's Club, and whatever user(s) they want to be in the group, let's say userA and userB. Now assume that this is done and the user closes the app. They reopen it some time later. My client side code makes a call to the server to send it whatever groups the client's user is part of and the user in that group (and also the messages in them, and so on...). The client receives this information and displays it all appropriately.

    So if Firebase lets me make these calls and even provides query listeners for when data changes on the server, then how does SQLite fit into all this? Do I even need it if I'm using Firebase?

    Need some suggestions choosing database

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 12:07 PM PDT

    Hey! Anyone experienced with building chat/social apps can help out here. So I will be building a social media platform like any other big one out there with chat and feed as features. I'm planning on doing Django with a DB, need advice on selecting a db. Another chat app I made was using Firebase and it has realtime but no realtime pagination, so don't want that problem now. I've worked on mongo, EDB before. Do I go SQL, NoSQL? I know I can achieve what I require with any DB, just need some clarity.

    The android app side is will be the normal flows/live data, socket listening, room paging etc. Thank you!

    I have some intermediate C++, Python, and Java experience but I've never played around with Android development. Where do you guys start? Are there good tutorials that teach you how to make something? Any good online classes? YouTube? Etc.

    How much can I copy a widget app?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2021 09:01 AM PDT

    So the widget and configuration app is quite simple. The reason why I am creating this app is that it is no longer available on the app stores and is offline completely. The company that produced the widget/app went out of business years ago. I am copying most of the functionality of this widget with my own source code. Though, my design is quite similar to theirs I'm afraid. I am trying to copy less and implement my own ideas into this widget/app, however, the app is so simple that I'm not finding much room to be creative.
