Weekly Questions Thread - June 08, 2021 Posted: 08 Jun 2021 06:00 AM PDT This thread is for simple questions that don't warrant their own thread (although we suggest checking the sidebar, the wiki, our Discord, or Stack Overflow before posting). Examples of questions:
Large code snippets don't read well on reddit and take up a lot of space, so please don't paste them in your comments. Consider linking Gists instead. Have a question about the subreddit or otherwise for /r/androiddev mods? We welcome your mod mail! Also, please don't link to Play Store pages or ask for feedback on this thread.

This sub is pointless if you can't ask general questions about Android programming . Posted: 08 Jun 2021 01:44 PM PDT I don't get why you can't ask questions about Android programming and development here. I can understand removing posts where someone is basically asking for others to debug and test their app or do their homework but every time I ask a question about general Android architecture it get's deleted. Yet people are still allowed to spam their stupid libraries they've made or blog spam, or ask questions about why their app that has copywritten material and trademark material in it has been removed. But you can't ask specific questions about android development. What the fuck is this sub for than? [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 08 Jun 2021 12:46 PM PDT I have a jetpack compose application and just one activity inside. Since I want to add viewmodels for business logic, i am not sure where to create them. I saw at some google documentation that they pass viewmodels to the compose functions, but somehow it doesnt feel right. I have also implemented a viewmodel line that, but I am not sure that it is every being cleared when I change the screen (the „oncleared" function from the viewmodel is never called, but new viewmodels are being created when I navigate back to the screen) I am missing the „scope" stuff that I was using with activities/fragments [link] [comments] | ||
Can't install Intel HAXM, please help! Posted: 08 Jun 2021 03:09 PM PDT Hi all, hope I can post something like this here? Currently tearing my hair out trying to install Intel HAXM to use with Android Studio, but I can't get it to work. Here is what I have tried so far after troubleshooting:
Unable to run Intel® HAXM installer: Cannot start process, the working directory 'C:\Users\[my name]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager' does not exist And sometimes it just says "installation failed".
For info, my laptop is a Lenovo Yoga 510 and runs Windows 10. Would be grateful for any tips before I throw this bloody thing out the window. [link] [comments] | ||

Safe-args analogue for Jetpack Compose Posted: 07 Jun 2021 11:28 PM PDT Hey everyone 😀 Recently I've posted an article about Jetpack Compose Navigation Component 🧭. It also features a small library I made that acts like safe-args plugin and more And here is the library itself https://github.com/levinzonr/compose-safe-routing Hope you will find it useful 😉 [link] [comments] | ||

Difference in implementation of VPN on Android vs iOS Posted: 08 Jun 2021 01:27 PM PDT For context in my country NSFW subreddits are banned. When I use to have an iPhone I would just turn on the vpn app and visit the NSFW subreddits in the Reddit app /Apollo app , I would not have to first kill the app and than open it again for the VPN to work and show subreddits that are banned. In Android if I turn on VPN and visit subbreddit on Reddit App / Sync for Reddit app it doesn't loads as if I don't have the VPN on it only starts loading the banned subreddits when I first kill the app and than reopen the app than it shows the banned subreddits. Any ideas why is this the case on Android? [link] [comments] | ||

Writing Firebase Firestore Rules Posted: 08 Jun 2021 12:05 PM PDT After using firebase as my backend for almost all apps that I build. The only thing I think that daunts beginners is firebase rules. If you don't validate requests from your app then you might lose user data, or pump up the firebase costs, or maybe something worse like gets your database cleared. To help you with that I started writing things I learned in writing rules for firebase. I just published the first article on medium today. It is not behind the paywall as I want everyone to read it (okay, partly because I cannot monetize it from India). Feel free to read it out and suggest me improvements if you have any, https://kamaravichow.medium.com/role-based-access-in-firebase-firestore-firestore-rules-6d36cded1b15 [link] [comments] | ||

Can/Should I get ride of ComposeView and Fragments? Posted: 08 Jun 2021 05:00 AM PDT I'm trying Jetpack Compose in a dummy projects. I've reached a point where all my Fragments xml layouts only consist of a ComposeView, and my single Activity layout only contain a FragmentContainerView and an AppBar, but I struggle to find what to do now. Can I get ride of the ComposeView and xml layout entirely without removing Fragments? (Which would force me to move to Jetpack Navigation if I understand it correctly) Should I actually remove Fragments and move to Jetpack Navigation? I've seen some people advocating against completely removing Fragments. Should I replace my LiveData with Flow? I see that LiveData are forced to be nullable and that add some boilerplate and bad error handling to my code ("if null -> display nothing"). Also seen this medium post that encourage me to go this way. [link] [comments] | ||
How to opt-in to 15% cut below 1m in revenue on google play? Posted: 07 Jun 2021 05:17 PM PDT I remember hearing you had to opt in at the start of June, but can't find anything about it on the android developer blog. Is there a process? [link] [comments] | ||

Lookng for app devs needing beta-testers.. Posted: 07 Jun 2021 01:53 PM PDT Anyone here have an app that needs testing? Won't get into details here, but my company is doing a sponsored "QA Blitz" type thing, and the developers we WERE going to have folks crash-beta-test bowed out due to scheduling conflicts. Send me a message if you're interested. Event is June 24th, so only a couple weeks away. Won't cost you a thing, and get good feedback in return. And, makes my event planner not look completely unprepared. :D Edit to add: My employer makes project management/testing software, and some of our team often do community or college outreaches, where folks that are professional, student, or freelance QA beta testers get to experience black-box testing under a time limit for small prizes and recognition. Like mentioned above, usually the team that handles this has an agreement with a contracting company that does Android/iOS work, and they offer an app that they're beta'ing for the participants to go over and try to destroy. This event, they apparently have nothing to test, and our planners didn't find out until today. They know I do some free-lance android work, and asked if I knew anyone. Hence, the pose here. Essentially, my coworkers are looking for a dev (single, team, company) to provide beta access to an app. This app will be used by 10-20 testers during this one-evening event, in which they will black-box test the app. Any issues they find - or THINK they find - will be entered into one of my company's software suites. As the developer(s), you'll have access to this to review everything found as / for feedback on the app. No cost to you, and some free advertising to the folks that attend this. Mods - realize that this was only my second post here, but finding the subreddit is what made me post my other post, and figured this wouldn't hurt. Technically it's not advertising an app, but.. well, would be considered 'hunting for business', I guess. If it violates anything feel free to nuke the post; no harm intended! [link] [comments] | ||
News app for Android Developers Posted: 07 Jun 2021 11:35 PM PDT I have always wanted to build a open source project that is useful for me and other people. At the same time, I wanted to learn new things that have been happening in Android Development Ecosystem. So, instead of using third party apis to build a sample app, I chose to build this news app that helps me learn things from various sources. It basically scrapes or uses rss feed to fetch content from different sources and saves it locally in the database. It is an offline app. Let me know what other data sources I should add: [link] [comments] |
