  • How do I pass data between my Activities?
  • Does anyone have a link to the source for the AOSP messaging app?
  • Is it possible to programmatically change the color of the status bar without targeting API 21?

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.

What makes a smartphone able to run a certain version of Android?

Posted: 04 Sep 2016 12:34 PM PDT

Hi, I can't understand something about Android.

  • Why can't we install Android (let's say 7.0) on any smartphone? Is it just due to hardware limitations or something else? (Or can we?)

  • What's the difference between a ROM and OS? Is it possible to install Stock Android (all versions) on a phone the same way it's possible to install a custom ROM?

  • Is Android and Linux Kernel inseparable? Do different versions of Android have different Kernel?

  • Can Stock Android work on any smartphone?

(Sorry if my questions are dumb :p and thank you for reading my question)

Why does android studio close the app during debug after stack frame ends?

Posted: 04 Sep 2016 04:10 PM PDT

So for example, I place a breakpoint in the method called after a button click. Once it reaches that breakpoint and I step out until the stack frame closes, Android Studio closes the app.

This only allows me to reach the breakpoint once, during debugging. How do I stop Android Studio from doing this?

I tried using a different emulator and the result is still the same. I'm using Android Studio on OSX btw.

Jumping from AP comp sci to Android dev

Posted: 04 Sep 2016 01:18 PM PDT

Hey guys! I don't know if you get questions like this a lot, but I took AP comp sci two years ago and have dabbled in Java since then. However, I feel like there's a serious gap in material from end-of-AP-Java to actually able to develop an Android app. Are there any materials for bridging that gap? I'm not looking for a "how to code for the first time" type resource but something that will allow me to go from solid beginner to actual developer. Thanks!

How do I know which APK Android Studio has deployed to the device?

Posted: 04 Sep 2016 02:08 PM PDT

I'm working on an open-source project that I'm not extremely familiar with. I had been used to deploying the APK manually using adb, where I could send any of the APKs like -dev and so forth myself. When using Android Studio, how do you know (and also set) which one has been deployed?

I have learned quite a bit of java(only java), is it time to start with Android?

Posted: 04 Sep 2016 04:32 AM PDT

I started learning java with motive of Android development. I have become well versed with variables, functions, loops, objects etc. Should I start with Android development? What else do I need to learn and do I really need to learn Java to the core or are the basics enough?
