| Amazon caught scraping email addresses from Google Play Posted: 08 Sep 2016 08:13 AM PDT A year ago I posted a new app to Google Play using a new dedicated developer email address for it. This email address was never used for anything else, and I haven't touched anything Amazon in more than a year anyway, but today it received some developers news from an amazon.com email address. I can only conclude that Amazon scrapes developer email addresses from Google Play. I would have expected better from them. Have you experienced this too? [link] [comments]  |

| Feedback Needed for Android Game: Cosmic Maneuver Posted: 08 Sep 2016 09:18 PM PDT Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anyconfusionhere.spaceshipgame Source Code: https://github.com/ArsalaBangash/Cosmic-Maneuver Promo Video: https://youtu.be/H9ABJj1gkEw Hi Lads and Ladies! I'm a student at the University of Toronto and over the summer, my friend and I started from absolute square one when it came to developing for Android. We came up with the idea for an accelerometer based arcade game, and we wanted to keep working on it until we had a solid finished product. The game is fun to play, has Google Play Services functionality, and has AdMob functionality as well. We developed it using Android Studio and the LibGDX game development framework, and all of our code is available on the GitHub repository. We welcome all feedback on both the app and the code running behind the app. We're going to be taking our first proper university course on Java programming this fall, and I'm sure we'll find a plethora of ways in which our code could be improved and optimised.

| Conductor and MVP - How should it be done? Posted: 08 Sep 2016 09:57 AM PDT I'm working on a fairly large complex project - it was (unfortunately) my introduction to Android and as such it has become a really big mess, with god activities and poor layered architecture, and memory leaks everywhere. I'm planning to do a big refactor towards MVP (or MVVM), but I would also really like to get away from the headache of activities and fragments - Conductor looks really nice after playing with it for a little bit. Unfortunately there is not a wealth of information about Conductor so I have a few uncertainties. What is the best practice for attaching and detaching the presenter with conductor? How can I safely save state during configuration change without leaking memory? Should I do MVP raw or work with a library such as Mosby/ThirtyInch/Nucleus etc? [link] [comments]  |

| Why do successful apps have ugly UIs? Posted: 08 Sep 2016 08:06 PM PDT If you look into Dribbble you'll find some amazing wonderful designs there. However when I look at Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, Snapchat, Uber, almost every billion dollar app is so simple to the point of being ugly. It's just content management. No beauty in the design. Anyone have an idea why they do it this way? Is UI irrelevant and UX what really matters? [link] [comments]  |
| Support fragments implementation Posted: 08 Sep 2016 06:30 AM PDT Hey everyone! There is one question that is bothering me too long. I wanted to ask, Do you know how support fragments are implemented? How do they did that fragmentManager survives orientation changes, and even if there are retained fragments, all the objects are survives that changes. How they did that in lower api version, where there was no support for fragments at all? If they did it somehow, why did they do not told us how, so we could just use this method in order to survive activity changes? I hope you understand what my question is, if not, I will try to rewrite it more clearly, as English is not my foreign language. [link] [comments]  |
| What permissions trigger the need for manual update? Posted: 08 Sep 2016 01:58 PM PDT Adding some permissions don't make it necessary for the user to do a manual update in the play store. I'm trying to prevent this, but could not find a list of the permissions that can be added without requiring a manual update. Thanks for the help! [link] [comments]  |
| Possibly making an app using firebase, but confused on how to hook it into a web based admin panel. Posted: 08 Sep 2016 01:38 PM PDT Pretty much need a way for admins to log into a site, check stats, and possibly update some info. The app will be using firebase, but my experience is limited in html. Can anyone give me some search terms to research how to connect an app to an admin web page with firebase as the middle man? Are there any web templates/themes I can just upload to a hosting site and have it connect to my firebase relaying updates down to the listening apps? Thanks. [link] [comments]  |

| Has Android redefined the meaning of a Linux process? Posted: 08 Sep 2016 12:18 AM PDT Wikipedia defines a process as a single instance of a program. Since I've started reading about android development I've learned that:
Does this mean a process is defined differently for Android? Or is the initial definition (used in many Linux guides) incomplete? Or maybe my definition of a program is lacking... [link] [comments]  |
