Deep Links and Instant Apps

J
Hi all,

I am attempting to implement deep links within my Instant App, and keep running into issues that seem to be coming from something to do with the base application. Currently, the error I'm receiving from the Play Console states:
You should have at least one active installed app APK that mapped to site 'example.site.com' through a web intent-filter.
Click to expand...
I do have an intent-filters set up in both the instant app and in the full base app. The intent-filters in the base application look like this:
Code: 
<intent-filter>
                <data
                    android:scheme="http"
                    android:host="example.site.com"
                    android:pathPattern="/test/app/" />
            </intent-filter>
            <intent-filter>
                <data
                    android:scheme="https"
                    android:host="example.site.com"
                    android:pathPattern="/test/app/" />
            </intent-filter>

And the intent-filters in the instant app module's manifest look like this:
Code: 
<intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

                <data
                    android:scheme="https"
                    android:host="example.site.com"
                    android:pathPattern="/test/app/" />
                <data
                    android:scheme="http"
                    android:host="example.site.com"
                    android:pathPattern="/test/app/" />
            </intent-filter>

With the instant app manifest also containing a default url, set up within the activity tag.

I'm not sure what I am missing here. I have set up the intent filters as I've seen elsewhere on the web, in Google's documentation, and in other forum posts where I've seen people encountering issues with this process. I've also hosted the assetlinks.json file in the .well-known directory on my domain, and verified that it is correct and accessible using Google's verification API. Does anyone know what the issue causing this error may be? Thanks!

Help What is this app???

Hadron
Given the number of different message apps there are in the Play Store you will be lucky if anyone can answer this (search the Play Store for "message", "messages" or "messenger" and see how many results you get - and that's before we consider apps like Skype that aren't primarily message apps but can receive messages too). All I can tell you for sure is that it's not one of the better-known message apps, and that unless someone who uses the exact same app sees this it's unlikely you'll get a definite answer.

To be honest, your best bet if you really want to know is probably to ask them.

build.Gradle Project file problem

Zorphan
So im up to step3 of Firebase setup.. paste code onto Project-level build.gradle (/build.gradle).. but the file doesnt have Dependancies or Repositorie on the file..

Here is a copy of my build.Gradle Project file..

Code: 
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
plugins {
    id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0' apply false
    id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0' apply false
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.6.10' apply false

}


task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

...so where do i paste the file from Firebase? everywhere i paste it, it wont syn. Or have i not set up the program correctly? im using Kotlin


Just so you talented people know .. ive just started Progaming.. today. So if you could explain what im doing wrong and explain your code it would help me learn from my mistakes.. having dyslexia is tough enough lol. Im trying to build a communication app for my son who has mental helath issues.

Thanks for any help

About 3 years ago I added "Wyatt" to my Google Android dictionary, and 3 phone later

That is a very good question.
Are you still using G-Board (yuck)?

This is just more proof of Google keeping track of every keystroke.

Maybe using a firewall to block internet access of the keyboard (once again, it seems that this should not be necessary- but, you know- Google) clearing the data of the keyboard, and seeing if that works?

Or just start using a different keyboard that does not send your keystrokes to anywhere else.

How to turn off play protect?

I prefer not to take those risks. Having frequently seen what can happen pirated Windows myself, as I've already mentioned.
Click to expand...
Depends which version you use. KMSAuto is fine. Had it on 7 PCs for years.

mikedt said:
Yes you can.
Click to expand...
Sorry, I have proper cameras, worth up to 3 grand. Things with little 1mm plastic lenses do not take proper photos. There simply isn't enough light entering that small a space to take a decent image. You can't change the laws of physics.

mikedt said:
Of course I've heard of micro SDs, I've been using them in my phone for more than ten years now. It sounds like your lifestyle is different to mine. Like I have to be mobile, and is NOT tied to a desktop computer in a room, and so my smart-phone has to be my PC and everything else especially when travelling, and be my camera. and my media player, and my entertainment system.

BTW I have several USB-drives with 1000 thousands of feature length films and TV shows on them, and they don't need a PC to view them.

Since you know about SD cards, then you'll realise it really doesn't matter that the internal storage of my phone is small. I simply add as many TB as I want.

Bluetooth Extender Antenna ?

Trade Intuition said:
need to find something to extend my bluetooth reach from my phone
my phone is connecting to other devices and i want to reach more devices ( IOT )
I have been looking for 3days now ... and need help
Click to expand...

So it sounds like you need to connect an external 2.4GHz antenna to the phone's internal Bluetooth, which extend the range. Given that phones and tablets don't have such things as standard. How competent are you with electronics hacking and modifications?

Bluetoth itself is supposed to be 10 metres range, and maybe 100 metres if using BT 5.0 devices.

Load app into decommissioned cell phone?

puppykickr
Yes, just connect to wi-fi and download whatever apps you choose.

I have devices that I use solely in this way.

Modern cellphones can be had at Wal-Mart for $40-$50 to be used in this way.

(Some modern apps won't run on older devices.)

Basically it can be like a miniature computer, you are just not using the cellular portion.

Place the device into airplane mode to be rid of any SIM or service notifications.

Then turn wi-fi on and connect.

Here are some excellent appstores to check out, F-Droid being 1st choice.

Hacker in my phone?

Hadron said:
Maybe you had previously deleted apps that hadn't used enough data to appear in the statistics, and so didn't see this (this would also apply if you only used them with WiFi, since that is counted separately from mobile data).

Anyway what I'm saying is based on more than a decade of using Android. This is how the usage stats display data used by apps that have since been removed, and it is by definition only historical usage because an app that has been removed cannot use more data. Wait a couple of weeks and it will disappear from your statistics unless you remove more apps that also used mobile data in the meanwhile (in which case any data used by those apps will appear as a new "removed apps" entry).

What do you actually think this is? That's what I don't understand.

The icon for the app you have ringed is the default icon for apps which don't have an icon, which are usually background system apps but not always. Different manufactures add different things in different models, so not having seen a particular app on other devices means nothing (to me the name "Saffron" would make me think of a theme, but that may be completely wrong). More surprising is that your settings are showing an app that appears to have no data usage.
Click to expand...
honestly I was thinking it was a spy app or something and the name would be some kind of camouflage, because the battery is having a higher consumption and the cell data left 10% to 20%, but in the last month it was lacking.

I hope I'm wrong about how easy it is for someone to have some monitoring on my cell phone without ever having physical access to it, I also hope that monitoring via the internet or any other way is not so simple. I don't know if this would help, but I bought vpn and use orbit because I believe I have more privacy.

Now, if what you say is true, I'm calmer and I hope I'm totally wrong in my intuition.

Anyway thanks a lot for the help.
Thank you all.

Samsung Expert RAW camera app

ironass
A couple of months ago Samsung released their new camera app, Expert RAW, on the South Korean Google Play Store for the S21 Ultra 5G. This video shows its capabilities...


If you would like to try it you can download the latest .apk file, Samsung Expert RAW Camera App 1.0.00.21.apk (46M), and install it on your Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G by downloading the file from here...

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O1FERNo1ja7v9nvw3GwNRSupCANBWdij/view

Simply click on the downloaded .apk file to install the app.

I have not had a chance to test it out fully on my international S21 Ultra device yet but it looks promising.
