Testing Android app on notch devices emulators

K
Hello,

Greetings !!!

I am new to this technology and i am a learner. we have an android mobile app that needs to be tested on android devices to check if there are any design issues. We have tested the app using the android emulators provided by "Android Studio". We need to test the same application in the Notch devices also. But in android studio, notch type devices are not available for us to test the application

Can you please suggest on how a notch device emulator can be created and tested?

Thanks and Regards

Houston, are we go?

Guess what the kid wants now. Be an astronaut for July 20! Well, it is the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing. Who has some costume ideas? I think the most important parts would be the helmet and boots, but how to make them lightweight, breathable and cool? Please forgive me for not posting this in off topic but I actually could not find it. The space where's it's supposed to be is taken up by some ad.

AT&T update removed custom text sound

M
I have a Motorola Moto Z2 Force - and AT&T pushed an update last night that seems to have broken the custom text notification sound option.

I have a different sound than the default notification sound selected for all texts.

Unfortunately, since this AT&T update the text plays the default notification sound, instead of the different custom sound that is still selected in
Messages | 3 Dots | Settings | Notifications | Sound

I am using Zedge to select the sound, and I have Android 8.0

Please help, thanks.

Blue Tooth Paired devices disappear

storageman
Every now and then, all paired blue tooth devices seem to get cleared out. I have this phone paired with my F150 pickup. The phone seems to stay paired if I use the truck every day, but if I don't use it for 2 or 3 days, it deletes the paired device. Prior to this phone I had a Samsung J7. When I bought the truck in 2017, it got paired and never needed to pair it again. Even if I didn't drive for a full week. I had this new A6 for 3 months and I have had to re-pair it 5 or 6 times.

Does anybody have any ideas on what causes this ?

First version
I have an app that works great while the screen is on, but as soon as the screen is off it start slowing down until eventually in a couple of minutes is off. I notice that the mainActivity in the android studio tester stops if I turn the screen off, as soon as I turn it on the screen the main activity goes live again and the app works fine again. I have tried BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS, DATA_RESTRICTIONS, but it doesn't seems to work. can anybody help me on how to keep the mainActivity from stopping while the screen is off?

I have read about foreground service and tried too but I dont seem to find any service that works with web view

thanks. Attach is a pic of the main activity stooping in the android studio test environment, the green part is the app with the screen on

this is the code that I am using

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private WebView webView;

@override


protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

webView = findViewById(R.id.wb);




WebView webview = new WebView (this);
setContentView(webview);
webview.loadUrl("http://www.apple.com");
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);


}

public void startService(View v){
String input = webView.getUrl().toString();

Intent serviceIntent = new Intent(this, RunService.class);
serviceIntent.putExtra("inputExtra", input);

Installing Google Play via Android Studio (while rooted)

A
Hi guys,

I have been going through hell and back over the last week trying to get Google Play installed on Android Studio. Of course there are images that come with Google Play pre-installed, but I cannot root those images using adb root.

Therefore, I have installed an Android image in Android Studio that supports Google APIs and have been trying to manually push OpenGApps onto the image. This has been a nightmare. I finally got it to work and now a few days later Google Play is no longer installed and the Pixel Launcher just keeps crashing.

Here's what I've tried thus far:

I ran into an installer that someone wrote in bash over here https://gist.github.com/cunneen/1c0d9717f8ce5ea76900ba32fa037047 and tried to replicate the results manually. Last week, things were fine. However, today, I have tried repeating the process since Google Play decided to uninstall itself.

Here's the error that I'm running into along the process:

Code: 
[myuser@mbp.local:...x86-9.0-stock-20190618/Core]$ "${ANDROID_HOME}/emulator/bin64/e2fsck" -f "${HOME}/.android/avd/${AVD}.avd/system.img"                  8:11AM/06.27
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block
/Users/myuser/Library/Android/sdk/emulator/bin64/e2fsck: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks...
/Users/myuser/Library/Android/sdk/emulator/bin64/e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /Users/myuser/.android/avd/Pixel_2_API_28.avd/system.img

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
or
    e2fsck -b 32768 <device>

This seems to be the only hiccup that I've encountered now when trying to re-install Google Play onto this Android image. I have tried the previous step, which is to copy the Android system image from $ANDROID_HOME/system-images/android-28/google_apis/x86/system.img to replace the system.img in the AVD folder, but I still get this error.

Has anyone been able to successfully accomplish this, or is this not even possible? It seems that when I ask this question on StackOverflow, there's crickets... as if no one ever does this or something.

Android Q WEP connection

G
I'm trying to connect to a WEP network using the latest Android Q Beta 4. The old style off communicating was quite straight forward. Using something like:

Java: 
WifiConfiguration connection = createApConfiguration(ssid, password, "WEP");

int res = wifiManager.addNetwork(connection);

However in the Q release this has been deprecated. https://developer.android.com/refer...ddNetwork(android.net.wifi.WifiConfiguration)

I need to connect to a "WEP" network and I don’t see any option to set such configuration. The latest API im using is below.


Java: 
val specifier = WifiNetworkSpecifier.Builder()

.setSsid("NetworkID")

.setIsHiddenSsid(false)

.setIsEnhancedOpen(false)

.setBssidPattern(MacAddress.fromString("10:03:23:00:00:00"), MacAddress.fromString("ff:ff:ff:00:00:00"))

.build()


val request = NetworkRequest.Builder()

.addTransportType(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_WIFI)

.removeCapability(NetworkCapabilities.NET_CAPABILITY_INTERNET)

.setNetworkSpecifier(specifier)

.build()


val connectivityManager = this.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE) as ConnectivityManager


val networkCallback = object : ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback() {


override fun onAvailable(network: Network?) {

Log.d("AVAILABLE", "onAvailable")

}


override fun onUnavailable() {

Log.d("UNAVAILABLE", "onUnavailable")

}}


connectivityManager.requestNetwork(request, networkCallback)



Any help would be very much appreciated

Thanks in advance

Stereo / Surround sound problem

A
Hi ! Recently I bought an Samsung S9+. What I did noticed, after making the updates and installing some games, is that, after a few minutes, the music ... changes... It's like it's not stereo anymore (or, better said, that surround feeling disappears) . It just sounds worse...

Noticed this on PUBG Mobile (high settings, in the main menu), Pako 2 and Real Racing 3 (while racing). And after around 5 mins from the game's start.

Is this normal for an brand new S9+ (idk, overheating), or should I have it replaced/fixed (or is it any way to fix it myself) ?

Oh, and Dolby Atoms is on, and also I have an Clear View Cover on it (again, may be overheating, idk).

Thanks in advance !

How to easily copy alpha-numeric PIN code

V
Hi guys,

Context: I am working on an app that sends the user a PIN code to check the phone number ownership. Due to company security restrictions, the PIN code has 6 characters, made from letters and digits (ex: AB12C3).

Question 1: How to easily copy the alpha-numeric 2FA code from the default SMS app? I did find a lot of articles about copying numeric codes, such as 12345, but I want an easy solution (no 3rd party apps) that can allow me to easily cop ya PIN code such as AB12C3.I only want to press on the code for a second to have it saved to the clipboard. I do not want to go through "Select text" -> manually select the PIN code. Is there a solution for this?

Thank you!

where to mount phone in the car while driving for safety

J
  • windshield -It places the phone at eye level and is extremely cheap and easy to install - you can effortlessly stick and remove it from the glass
  • Dashboard - By placing your handset on the dashboard you can easily interact with the phone without affecting your windshield view
  • Vents - vent mounts are the best suited for people who don't want to have their handsets mounted in their cars all the time.
  • Rear View Mirror - Mounting the device on the rear view mirror does not require much effort to view your phone screen when you are driving the car
  • Cup Holder - This helps the driver to navigate the handset without any trouble. Moreover, one can easily remove it without any residues.

LocationManager problem

grgp89
Hello guys!
I have the following code to request location update, but it doesn't work. I get this error "Call requires permission which may be rejected by user: code should explicitly check to see if permission is available (with checkPermission) or explicitly handle a potential SecurityException".
Can you help me with some answers?
Thank you a lot!

The code that I have:
if (mLocationManager.getAllProviders().indexOf(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER) >= 0) {
mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 500, 0, this);
} else {
Log.w("MainActivity", "No GPS location provider found. GPS data display will not be available.");
}

if (!mLocationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)) {
showGpsDisabledDialog();
}

mLocationManager.addGpsStatusListener(this);

PS: I included user-permission in AndroidManifest. I am running sdkVersion 27

Go Launcher - How can I disable home screen notifications?

P
I've been using go launcher flawlessly for months with no issues, but it seems like there's just been an update that I absolutely hate. ringtones free
As of yesterday, when I press my home button, I don't actually go home, but to an intermediate screen filled with my Facebook and email notifications and the like that I must dismiss to actually go home. I despise it. I pressed home, I want to go home, I'll with my notifications on my own time!!
Is there any way I can disable this feature so that I don't have to uninstall the launcher? It's been by far my favorite up until now. Download Samsung klingeltone herunterladen free
