Shared Preference Editor is taking a long time to update the value

Shared Preference Editor is taking a long time to update the value​


Shared Preference Editor is taking a long time (3-4 seconds) to update the value into the XML file.
Below is my scenario
  1. I am updating the parameter value into the shared pref.XML file.
  2. After updating the value withing 2-3 seconds I reboot the device.
  3. After reboot I am able to see there is two shared pref XML file in /data/data/apk.package/shared_pref path. one is original and another one is xml.bak file In xml.bak file parameter value is not updated while in xml file value has been updated properly.
  4. After reboot when I run the application, bak.xml is convert into the main xml file (main xml file deleted) and application read parameter value from bak.xml file which is not correct.
Below is my source code
Java: 
sUserPref = app.getSharedPreferences("ABC", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
sUserEditor = sUserPref.edit();
sUserEditor.putInt(storedKey, value);
if (sUserEditor.commit()) {
LogHelper.Logd(DBG_HEADER, "commit success");
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
Why sharedpref is taking time to update the file? Is it depends on the memory in the device? Is there any other alternative?

Error: INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE

ottersss
Hello everyone!
I get an error when install my local aab build by bundle build tool:
Caused by: com.android.ddmlib.InstallException: Failed to commit install session 1908590605 with command cmd package install-commit 1908590605. Error: INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE: Existing package com.company.game signatures do not match newer version; ignoring!

Here is my command to generate and install the build:
  • java -jar bundletool_1.15.4.jar build-apks --bundle=bundle.aab --output=filename.apks --ks=ks_path --ks-pass=pass:mypass --ks-key-alias=mylias --key-pass=pass:myaliaspass
  • java -jar bundletool_1.15.4.jar install-apks --apks=filename.apks

I tried build-apks with flag '--local-testing' but no luck.

*NOTE:
I absolutely sure I was using same keystore for 2 build (build was upload to ggplay store and local build)
I must keep old build in phone (Cause I tesing case user update my app)
This error only happen when install in android 13 and android 14 beta (android 12 and below was fine)
I can download update the build when I upload new build into ggplay store (channel internal testing)

Thanks all!

CallU Application to Record Calls

P
I downloaded a nice app for Android to record phone calls:
play.google.com

Automatic Call Recorder Pro - Apps on Google Play

Auto call recorder is the complete phone call recorder for android with call ID
play.google.com play.google.com

I am using Google Pixel 6 with the latest updates. The app appears to work and produces a recorded call in the call list after I turn on recording during the call. But the playback of that recorded call is empty. Is some additional permission under Android required? Does Android have a new security feature that forbids any recording of phone calls?

Samsung Tab A7 and Android Auto

M
I have been thinking about upgrading from an iPhone 12 to a new Pixel Fold and one of the things I wanted to verify was that my car (2022 Jeep Wrangler) would work with Android Auto. I have an old (Android 10) Motorola G7) that I no longer use as a phone and I connected it to my Jeep and verified that it (the Jeep) would run Android Auto when connected to the phone. I also have a Samsung Tab A7 (running Android 13), but when I tried to run Android Auto on my Jeep using it all I got was error notifications and no matter what cables I used I could not get Android Auto to work using the tablet.

I worry about spending the money for a new Android phone and then finding that Android Auto will not work, so my question is whether there is something special about the Samsung Tab A7. Why does AA not work on it while it does work on an older Android phone? Is there something special about the Samsung Tab A7? Or tablets in general when running AA? What worries me is that perhaps newer versions of the Android OS will not work on my Jeep and I would spend all that money and not be able to use Google Maps to find my way around unfamiliar places.

FWIW: I tried to install the Android Auto app on the tablet but could not find AA in the Android Play store. When I checked further I was told that AA is installed as part of the OS in all Android version including and after 10. I tried to start AA on the tablet (and on the phone) but could not find an actual app to run.

Does anyone have any information that would help me? My Jeep has the upgraded display package and says that it will run Android Auto.

Completely offline news app?

D
Does anyone know of an app to read news and other articles that auto updates when it has data but works completely offline? I'm using usa today and it says it has offline, but doesn't work well when offline anyways. I though we'll maybe email news, but all they do is send you links so you need data.

We moved and so many places I go around here the 4g is terrible. Want ro just catch up on the news but can't.

Help to find a old game

M
I don't know how old this game are but it's being a time I played.
If I remember well the game is a point and click.
The game was about a man who was asked to sell a property. As the game unfolds, it is discovered that some residents of the house are vampires and there is a Saint Bernard dog that is a ghost.
I tried to find with all words possible in the Google playstore and at Chrome. Unfornatelly I don't have a image to show or can draw one.

How to track text like google translate (google lens) does it?

A
I'm trying to get the same quality of text tracking as google translate live camera translation. I want to track text in real time from camera, use ocr to get the string text, process it and then replace it with processed text, making it look seamless.

I know about ML Kit and I tried using it, it works great but I can't get the text to look right. I get the bounding box for the text, and the text itself, I know the position but it's not as accurate as I want it to be and it jumps around.

Ther's also ARCore which is something I think I need for smooth tracking but I'm not sure how to track text with it.

The only thing I could think of is that somehow first I would detect text and then save the image, use it for ARCore and then use that to render processed text on top of it.

I couldn't find much information about this on the internet only the ML Kit text detection and ARCore for tracking specific images. Any references or ideas are highly appreciated!

different database schemas Service for Migrating Databases on AWS

S
I have two databases: a source database and a target database. DBs have fully distinct schema and table structures. Using AWS DMS, I want to migrate all data from the source to the destination DB. Is it possible to map various columns from the source DB tables to various columns in the destination DB tables?

If you want further information, I can give it.

I'm looking for a fix or a workaround for using AWS DMS.
