    Apple M1 Chip & Android Emulator: Working

    Posted: 03 May 2021 06:34 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    I was not able to find any news about this. So I just want to share it with you.

    As most of you know, you could already download the SDKs for arm, but in my case it was always crashing when trying to run the emulator "AVD Process killed". Today I received a new emulator update from 30.5.5 to 30.5.6. I was so excited, that I just tried it again AND: it is working.

    I know a few people already used workarounds or downloaded the package from github itself. But now it is supported in Android Studio itself.

    Cheers,
    Jan

    Fix for Android Studio Touch Bar functions on M1 Macbooks(Latest Arm Canary)

    Posted: 03 May 2021 12:02 AM PDT

    Hey everyone, I realized that my touch bar functions were broken(and customisation was impossible since touchbar wasn't there on the toolbar menu) so I found a solution! The reason why this happens is that some libraries aren't loading properly. Open up the terminal and write:

    mkdir ~/Library/Frameworks/nst.framework/

    cd ~/Library/Frameworks/nst.framework/

    ln -s path/to/android/studio/install/Contents/bin/libnst64.dylib nst

    Don't forget to change the path to your AS install on the third line! Reboot the AS and it's fixed!

    Toggle Setting to change recyclerview layout?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 06:43 AM PDT

    Working on an app, and currently have a default recycler view of linear layout manager. I was wondering how I would go about adding a preference toggle to switch from grid to linear layout? I've searched, but all the posts are 5+ years or not relevant to what I'm trying to figure out. Project is in Kotlin if that makes a difference. Recycler view is in my "home fragment" and settings fragment has the preferences.

    Is it possible to find the status of the unsuccessful outgoing call?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 05:25 AM PDT

    I want to know is it possible to send an outgoing call through an app and find whether the other end is Busy or Switched off?

    My goal is to know the status of the other end, whether busy, switched off or network not reachable.

    Is it possible in android?

    Google Play Background Location Not letting me update.

    Posted: 03 May 2021 04:48 AM PDT

    So the current version that's in production uses background location, I'm using react native with the expo cli and when I created the project expo installed location by default even though I don't need it. I just tried to update my app to not use background location anymore along we other new features but I can't update it until I declare why I use background location even though i don't use it in the new version. I've searched online and people have said I should do a permission declaration form and select "No" but I can't as that was apparently removed on march. Any ideas of what I can do I'm stuck

    Are there a store app review, from closed test track to production ?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 03:51 AM PDT

    Hi,

    i have enabled the time publishing and for the first time I uploaded my app in the closed test track.

    Now I'm wondering if there will be a new review of the app when I will promote my app from closed test track to the production one.

    reactive streams based architectures question

    Posted: 03 May 2021 03:39 AM PDT

    I often see reactive android architectures (which I love) that also end up being "stateless" (which I personally think is pointless for an android app). I sometimes wonder is this a conscious decision? or is it just a side effect of cargo-cult programming techniques? (Server side is different: stateless micro-services are easier to maintain because state i.e. database considerations are handled elsewhere, but that doesn't translate to Android)

    More context on what I'm thinking:

    State

    There are two main ways AFAICT of handling your application level state (i.e. sessionId, chat status, todo list, current weather report, etc):

    1) keep the state in a class that is scoped to the app lifecycle, persisting it where necessary. Eg. an AuthenticationWhatever class, with app level scope, that keeps a session token

    2) have this state exist in a data stream somewhere and use things like BehaviourRelay to make sure you don't loose it when you rotate the screen

    Reactive UIs

    Reactive architectures all use the observer pattern in some way (activities/fragments/views observing changes that happen elsewhere).

    So if someone implements their reactive UI using reactive streams (RxJava or Flow), they are usually also choosing to handle their state in the data stream - see stateless usecases for example, a common choice for implementing clean architecture (though clean architecture says nothing about state, or even reactive programming in general). So is the choice to keep the data in the stream just a thoughtless side effect of using reactive streams to implement a GUI app? - or is it a deliberate choice, and if so what is the reason for that choice?

    WhatsApp clone using Flutter

    Posted: 03 May 2021 12:42 AM PDT

    I was researching a bit and then came up with this guide on building a WhatsApp clone from scratch using flutter. My friends have tried putting all parameters together here but it is still not comprehensive. Building a WhatsApp clone from scratch using Flutter.

    Would love to get some feedback here. Also how secure will this clone be?

    Interview questions confusion

    Posted: 03 May 2021 02:31 AM PDT

    Are the coding interview questions same for both web and app developers. I am asking this because I will be looking to do internships as an android developer and am using algoexpert.io for interview prep.

    Jira vs. Github Project Management vs. ClickUp, which one is the best?

    Posted: 02 May 2021 03:35 PM PDT

    So I am the sole developer of my mobile app. I need a tool to document new features to add to my app and keep track of what revisions I need to make to my code. I have looked at a bunch of tools/software that I can use and narrowed it down to Jira, Github Project Management, or ClickUp as being the tools/software I can use to accomplish this. Which of the three is the best for me?

    Are there any guides to building self hiding apps?

    Posted: 02 May 2021 08:55 PM PDT

    All my research has shown me is people showing me apps that can do that, but I have no idea where to start learning how to develop that myself. Any help would be appreciated!
