    I'm working as a virtual assistant. Hated my job. Should I quit and take the plunge self studying Android dev?

    Posted: 08 May 2021 05:45 AM PDT

    Hello guys. This is my background:

    I am from Malaysia. I am fortunate enough to have a job as a virtual assistant while the pandemic is continually destroying jobs left and right around me.

    I'm earning good money...by Malaysian standards. And I actually am starting to hate my job. It has nothing to do with my true passion which is math/coding, and the pay is really low, and I am constantly being overloaded with low-paid tasks day in day out throughout the week.

    Should I quit my job and start self-studying Android development?

    If I quit my job in 2 months I will have savings to last me a whole year. I am Malaysian and local Android development jobs are practically nonexistent in my area - and even if they are, they are of the low paying, ironically even lower paying than the current virtual assistant job that I have.

    I am not in the West where there are more opportunities for working locally as an Android developer. Pretty much my only outlets for finding potential quality work are online and on freelance platforms like Upwork, Freelancer or Fiverr.

    As someone self-taught with no professional experience, the only portfolio items I can make are either demos or small one-person apps published to Google Play Store (unless I am mistaken).

    With these odds all stacked against me, should I quit my job and take the plunge nonetheless?

    Can't upload .apk - "Couldn't upload. Try again" error.

    Posted: 08 May 2021 05:26 AM PDT

    Hello!

    I'm trying to upload an .apk, to the Play Store but I'm always getting "couldn't upload. try again" error.

    What I've tried:

    1. I cleared cache and cookies
    2. I tried to upload in Incognito mode
    3. I tried different browsers (Firefox and Chrome).

    None of this works.

    Do you have the same problem or it's just me?

    Kotlin - wait till asynchronous call to get a response

    Posted: 07 May 2021 01:15 PM PDT

    Hello, im a newbie in kotlin that needs to extract heavy data from server before allowing the user to use an activity. That's why i need a synchronous function, which should wait till the server delivers a response so i can prepare the activity for the user. But im kinda lost and dont know what im doing wrong.

    My Observer is working and filling the response, but it should wait till it gets a response before continuing to the next line

    [Survey] Rutgers and Mozilla researchers want to know how you use Google Assistant

    Posted: 07 May 2021 05:00 PM PDT

    Hey r/androiddev, my name is Tawfiq Ammari. I'm an assistant professor at the Rutgers University School of Communication and Information working with Mozilla and Anthem.ai research scientists, and I'd like to learn from some of the experts on this forum about how people are thinking about voice assistants.

    tldr: If you are a Google Assistant user in the US or Canada, get paid $25 to take an academic research survey and to share your Google Assistant History. You'll need to take the survey on your laptop/desktop.

    In particular, we want to learn more about how you use Google Assistant. Your participation will help us better understand how people are using these technologies, and provide better services in the future.

    We are looking for a broad range of people who use Google Assistant. We will ask you some questions about how you currently use Google Assistant and what features you might want to add. We will also ask you to share your Google Assistant History with us. We will be studying this history to understand the overarching categories of Voice Assistant commands, like "search," or "music" -- and not for any particular search/command. We will protect your privacy by masking private data (including images, addresses, names, telephone numbers) using a script. For example, using regular expressions, the script will find and remove names of contacts (e.g., call Peter or call Rebecca), addresses (e.g., 123 State St., 38105), and phone numbers (e.g., 732-932-5690).

    All your survey answers and uploaded logs will only be accessed by members of the research team. At no point will we share any of your data with anyone outside of the research team or with any other company, and at no point will we link it to any online identifier, such as your email address or Reddit account. The results of this survey will be reported in aggregate ("28% of queries were about music"), and any quotes you give us will be anonymized ("A 23-year-old told us they 'couldn't do without music'"). We have used this approach before, looking at smart speaker data, in our paper Music, search and IoT: How people (really) use voice assistants.

    Participants will receive a $25 Amazon.com gift card as a thank you for their time. You will receive another $25 Amazon.com gift card should you decide to do an interview with us. You'll need to be 18 years or older and live in the United States or Canada. If you would like to participate, please use this link to our survey. Note: You'll need to fill this survey out using a laptop or desktop so that you'll be able to access your Google Assistant History.

    For more information, please contact Tawfiq Ammari by email at tawfiq.ammari@rutgers.edu

    Jetpack Compose for Non UI - Tree construction and source code generation

    Posted: 07 May 2021 04:40 PM PDT

    Is The compose navigation component a substitute for a real architecture?

    Posted: 07 May 2021 09:23 PM PDT

    Hi all, I recently got into android design around the time jetpack compose in late alpha, and have been playing around with it for my commercial project. Today, I was working on persisting data between composable screens using the navigation component (which works nicely) and since I am trying my hardest to avoid xml, I was wondering if the navigation component is an ok replacement for traditional architectures (mvvm,mvc) for beginner projects. Does this navigation play a part in eventually overthrowing the lifecycle, fragment and activity system? Also, if possible pls refer me to a guide to architectures in android. Thanks!

    Is there a good app making program that let’s me start from the front end and work back?

    Posted: 07 May 2021 03:40 PM PDT

    I'm an absolute novice who has a basic app he wants to build which, in theory, should be stupidly straightforward. It's a score tracker for a board game which has constantly shifting values that take about 5 minutes to work out when you're trying to work out how close you are to winning.

    I know exactly how I want it to look 9 visible pages and one invisible spreadsheet to reference off. I've made a functional spreadsheet with automated buttons to do what I want the app to do

    But as soon as I try and work out how to convert that I get completely lost.

    Is there a good app building software that let's you start with how you want it to look then add fields and buttons and define their functions in relation to other fields and buttons?

    [JobSwitch] I am planning to move to a better company like Uber and I am not understanding if I should concentrate on Android Concepts or do LeetCode for couple of months before I start giving interviews.

    Posted: 07 May 2021 08:55 AM PDT

    Hey,

    I am an Android Dev since more than 3.5 years and have proficiency in Kotlin, Dagger2, MVVM, RxJava2, Room etc. I gave few interview at startups here in India but for most of the interviews the first round was Leetcode type questions that needed to be solved on HackerRank/HackerEarth. I flunked in the first rounds and realized that I need to make Data Structures strong in order to get through the Leetcode type interview rounds.

    Also the newer concepts like Coroutines, Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Multiplatform, Pager 3 are yet to be explored, understood and used.

    Now I am not understanding if I have to work on newer concepts listed above or give attention to improving Data Structures and Algorithms.

    I also got to know that there would be System Design round in Uber, Amazon etc.

    I also feel that if I delay giving interviews by another year the expectations from 4.5 years guy would be of a Tech Lead or SDE 3 guy.

    How you guys ever been at this situation? What do you suggest.

    MVP on Jetpack Compose

    Posted: 07 May 2021 08:50 AM PDT

    With the arrival of Jetpack Compose on Android, Google has suggested that applications written using MVP be rewritten with MVVM or similar patterns before migrating the UI to Compose. In this article I claim that this is not the only solution and that there is an alternative along the way.

    Differents kotlin version in same app, how ?

    Posted: 07 May 2021 08:48 AM PDT

    Hi !
    And we are here with a beautiful gradle warning:

    Runtime JAR files in the classpath should have the same version. These files were found in the classpath: 

    and

    w: Consider providing an explicit dependency on kotlin-reflect 1.5 to prevent strange errorsw: Some runtime JAR files in the classpath have an incompatible version. Consider removing them from the classpath 

    By inspecting the dependendencies: one library use 1.3 , one 1.4 and so on , and for last but not least I have just update my project to 1.5 version .. Sure I can bring back the version to 1.4, but there are other library set to 1.3.

    How can it works ? How can we handle this problem in a big project with different libraries ?
