| Client Question - Am i being ripped off? Posted: 15 Jul 2021 01:51 AM PDT Hi, i hope this post is allowed. I wanted to ask a question directly to some android devs to get a feeling for whether i'm being ripped off by my agency. For context, I'm the client, i have an app that sells tickets for travel and it also lets you plan a journey from A to B. That's it in simple terms. All development work is handled by an external agency. The way it typically works is this - I request something, and they send me a bill for it (not broken down by time at all). So, I've asked for some new event tracking to be added to the app. These are around 12 events that are already being captured currently, the only difference is I want these events to be pushed into a different tool (so, instead of only sending these data points into GA, I now want it sent into another tool i have installed). I've been charged 18k GBP for this. The agency haven't done the work yet, and they won't give a breakdown of hours. I have a feeling that it's way over priced. Can anyone give an indication of how long this type of work takes? (Literally taking an existing event and pushing the data to an additional place). I've done similar in web and it's taken me minutes. But i have no clue how long it takes when it comes to app. What would you charge for this kind of work? Any insight would be very much appreciated Just to be clear this isn't a 'help me' post, and it's not a hiring post (following the rules). I just want to see some discussion and opinions on this from a devs perspective. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 15 Jul 2021 04:52 AM PDT Hey, about a year ago I posted this: https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/iy6bmb/warning_to_all_with_google_and_thirdparty_sdks/ Well, I appealed again, a year later, and it was accepted. My game is now back live on Google Play, I'm a little bit in shock! Just shows that perseverance sometimes pays off! Though it might be useful for others that may be in the same situation.

| Posted: 15 Jul 2021 12:52 AM PDT Hey guys, I'm trying to use the ViewPager2 with FragmentStateAdapter. I'm initializing the adapter inside the onViewCreated, because if I use the lazy initialization, it crashes every time I navigate from that fragment and then come back to it. After some researching, it seems that it's a problem with ViewPager2. So now I have a problem because if I have a fragment with two tabs, and one of those tabs has a list, if I navigate somewhere when a list item is clicked, and come back to this fragment with tabs, the list is created again and I cannot keep my scroll state, the list is scrolled to the top. Is there a way to fix this, so if I click on an item inside a list, navigate somewhere and come back to this fragment, to keep the list scrolled to the position I left it in. I can see many apps working correctly, but cannot find a working example of this. Thank you! EDIT: using navigation components with this [link] [comments] | ||

| Starter Kit is the best way to learn react native Posted: 15 Jul 2021 08:02 AM PDT Web dev here trying to get started with my first react native project. I asked my friend, an experienced react native dev with several apps, what the best way to get started was. He recommended devbag, because they have a ton of stuff integrated and very helpful documentation for me to learn from. I googled and found the following boilerplates/starter kits, and they are free. I am leaning towards devbag because it comes with a lot of the box but costs $77. The free ones don't have as many features but I save money. Do you have experience choosing a starting point? My priorities are saving time and being production-ready ASAP. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 15 Jul 2021 01:50 AM PDT Hi Reddit ! I have an issue when trying to upgrade to the Android gradle plugin from version 4.1.3 to 4.2+. When I try to compile my application, I have the following error:
I have tried with all 4.2 versions but all of them gives me the same error. My gradle files can be found on my github, any help will be appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||

| I am Confused with RecyclerView in Android - A Beginner Posted: 15 Jul 2021 04:40 AM PDT Hi Guys, So the title basically tells it all, I am fluent in web dev and wanted to learn android development and I am learning it using Android Studio and Kotlin. However, while going through the fundamentals, I became very confused with RecyclerView and Adapter Classes and all. Can someone break it down clearly in smaller parts for me? Thanks a lot!

| Had anyone success filing a DMCA counter notification? Posted: 14 Jul 2021 01:16 PM PDT My game was taken down the Play Store because of a DMCA takedown notice. I never used any copyrighted content, so I decided to send a counter notification. Now the bot keeps telling me
Well, it is a form and I have filled every mandatory part of it. When asking what information is missing, guess what I got replied? Bingo:
The bot has a remarkable reply time of around 5 days, by the way. So, does anyone know which are the magic words to pass the bot? [link] [comments] | ||

| Request to postpone 2nd tech interview with final interview already scheduled Posted: 14 Jul 2021 10:53 AM PDT Hi everyone, I'm applying as an Android dev. Here's the company's interview process:
I've finished 1 to 4. They scheduled 5 and 6 today and tomorrow, respectively. I was surprised they scheduled the final interview also. Here's the issue: I've never taken a system design interview before. The recruiter gave me pointers so I have a better idea, however this made me realize how unprepared I was. Two hours before the interview, I chickened out and decided to ask for a reschedule. I was honest with my reason: I was not confident I will perform well and needed more time to study. I asked for 2 weeks since I needed to file for vacation leave on my current work. They have not replied yet. Did this hurt my chances for this job? I've invested so much effort into this, I did not want to risk a bad interview because I was unprepared. [link] [comments] | ||
| Android App Technical Documentation Posted: 14 Jul 2021 07:53 PM PDT I have developed several android apps but never wrote any proper technical documentation. I have been trying to learn how to write. Does anyone have any tips or any template that can be shared? Thank you. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 14 Jul 2021 11:00 PM PDT I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on making an app that wont kill user's phones with Java. What are the do's and donts or can anyone give me a good reference to read? Should there be a cap of how many activities my app should have? How many is too many for a simple game app? Any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
| New to app development, should I use Flutter for Android and iOS dev? Posted: 14 Jul 2021 11:44 PM PDT Flutter claimed to be cross-platform which works for iOS, Android, even Windows, MacOS, Linux and etc.. Flutter uses Dart as its language for programming. I have Zero knowledge of Dart programming by far. I programmed using Python, JavaScript, Java in the past years, mostly I do the backend dev. I want to try mobile App dev, but I'm concerned that flutter might be abandoned by Google. I have been learning Dart for 2 days, it's like a new language, surely it is. (not a lot of companies hire people who do dart programming) Should I use Flutter/Dart or go to Java/OOC/Swift for mobile app dev? [link] [comments] | ||
| Tip: if the install time to your phone is more than 10 seconds - Posted: 15 Jul 2021 02:04 AM PDT Try to go to settings > developer options And disable verify apps option. Now it should take about 5 seconds. [link] [comments] | ||

| "Company Name" when publishing app? Posted: 14 Jul 2021 01:38 PM PDT Hey Im absolutely sorry to bother you with this stupid question but Im currently going through the last step which is building in-app purchases which includes all kinds of configurations in the google play console. Currently Im stuck at adding a payment account (not sure what it is called in english exactly) and they want
So I am the developer but the idea and planning of the app was with 2 friends of mine. We dont have a registered company or anything - do we need one or is this just something like a "username" ? Also when I give them my private credit card numner, name etc. can this be changed later or cause any issues? Probably overthinking and a dumb question but Im a bit cautious.. [link] [comments] |
