    How to make dialog full screen

    Getting tired of inconsistent UI components

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:37 AM PDT

    I've been working on some new features for my work's app, and our designer keeps flagging inconsistencies in padding throughout the app and honestly I'm getting frustrated at the inconsistency at a native level.

    Example

    as per the example above, I feel like I have to do a lot of wasteful work to just get the basic padding right.

    @google, please just make every component with 0 internal padding, it makes working with ui so much easier..

    selling an app for a fixed price in google play

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:28 AM PDT

    Sorry for the incoming confused rant. Please delete this question if it's considered too much of a "help me" post!

    If I sell an app on Google Play for a fixed cost, does anyone know what information is given to me regarding the buyers? I heard it mentioned you can sort orders by email address, is there anything else?

    I'm still just trying to work out how to be compliant with privacy laws with my kid's game and how to write my privacy policy. My intention was to collect no data at all (aside from what google play metrics collects), but I just randomly had the realization today that order details would be personal information that I'm collecting? I think?

    And it could even be a child's information technically? Because children can have google family accounts, and if no restrictions have been set up, the child can go and buy apps and do whatever

    According to COPPA, you can only collect personal info from a child after you've gotten "verifiable" consent from the parent, like a form you email them and they sign and send back to you lol (It has to be something that tangible)

    Maybe those family accounts are automatically compliant because they're set up by parents, and that's the consent?

    Or... am I just completely overthinking everything again, and is that information considered google's responsibility even though I can see it?

    Play console: Impossible to accept Android Auto addendum

    Play console: Impossible to accept Android Auto addendum

    Android for Cars addendum to the Developer Distribution Agreement is impossible to accept due to disabled button. Whenever I scroll, select different language , visit those link in agreement or I dont know what else should I do to accept that fucking button.

    Android auto agreement

    When i upload .apk or app bundle it tells me to accept this agreement.

    Cannot upload .apk to internal testing due to not accepted agreement

    I am tired of this. I dont know what to do.

    Google play console sucks.

    Firebase Realtime Events

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 06:13 AM PDT

    I have set up Firebase Analytics in my project, but I am experiencing a strange issue with Firebase console.

    When I run the app, I can see the events in Realtime (last 30mins), but it works for a very short time, then I don't see anything for the next 30mins-1hour, even though I restarted the app and sent the exact same events.

    Then after ~1hour I can see the events even though I'm not sending them at that point.

    Has anyone experieneced that kind of behavior and can tell me what that is about? Our tester is testing the same thing on iOS and events are almost live (~2min delay)...

    Android Image Cropper issues

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 04:32 AM PDT

    Does anybody have experience with the package com.theartofdev.edmodo:android-image-cropper? I'm having problems with it, when I pass an uri from the internet, the cropper activity launches and then goes back to the previous screen in less than a second. I've tried also saving the image to applications cache memory and then get the uri to that image, and still the same thing happens. Also tried with external storage. Any ideas what could be going wrong?

    The code for starting image cropper:

    CropImage.activity(imageUri).setCropMenuCropButtonTitle("Select")
    .setGuidelines(CropImageView.Guidelines.ON)
    .setMultiTouchEnabled(true)
    .start(activity as MainActivity)

    Anyone know how to get the resolution of whatever's currently on display?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 03:36 AM PDT

    I shouldn't ask this here but no other forum has the answer.

    I've seen only questions about how to get the max resolution of the screen, not the resolution of what's actually in the foreground which can be a different resolution than the screen. I have a background service and I want it to get the resolution of whatever the user currently has on display.

    Programming for Tile Tracker?

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 05:42 PM PDT

    Hello all,

    I have been trying to do something to help keep my skills sharp and also dive into IoT more. Tile smart trackers for the unacquainted are lightweight BLE devices which are attached to things to help find them either in the house or, if lost outside, can be found leveraging other tile user's connection should they pass by the lost item.

    In my case, I wanted to see if I could interact with these devices myself and build a sort of system of my own to identify these devices while in the home. To do this, I planned on scanning my bluetooth list and picking my tile devices and noticing when they came in and out of range of my phone.

    Here's the pitfalls, I read that tile devices cannot be seen in any pairing lists once the app is setup. This must mean that the device mac addresses are known and stored in the app but I cannot find them. Further if they do not show on a scan then I will be unable to even see where in range they are.

    I do know however that they must send out some kind of signal and was wondering if anyone knew of some app somebody else wrote or anything on the tile communication protocol to help me in this? Surprisingly google shows that not many apps are written around these devices and existing software is typically based on logging into tiles website and requesting info from their unofficial endpoints.

    Thanks in advance.

    How to create dynamic & interactive custom plots/graphs/charts?

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 10:29 PM PDT

    I'm an entry level android dev and for my first app I have data that I'd like to display using common graphs such as time series, bar charts, pie charts, etc.

    This is a great example of something I'd like to create: https://youtu.be/uBkPoF0eA2Q

    Ideally I'd like to create my own custom charts that will allow me to fully customize size, color, themes, and interactive features.

    As an entry level dev I am a bit lost as to what would be the best approach to develop these custom visuals.

    Any and all feedback appreciated.

    Question about using web api for mobile app

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:43 PM PDT

    I have a webpage that displays map live map data and is updated frequently, what I'm wondering is if I could take that webpage and integrate it into a mobile app and use the api I made for the backend to send map data to a app. Idk how I'd go about this as I'm new to android app development. If anyone has any advice on how to connect a web based backend and DB to a mobile app and if it's sustainable please lmk. Or any info that could help me. Thank you 🙏🏻

    Portal Azure doesn't recognize my signature hash generated with keytool cmd

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:36 PM PDT

    Hey folks,

    I'm trying to run the following commads on Windows 10 to generate the signature hash for I can use it on the Azure Portal. But the Azure portal is saying me that "The signature hash must be base64-encoded SHA1."

    keytool -exportcert -alias SIGNATURE_ALIAS -keystore PATH_TO_KEYSTORE | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl base64

    I just added all parameters correctly, so idk why the Azure portal doesn't recognize my generated signature hash.

    Thanks in advance!
