**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Aug 07 02:59:57 2016
Aug 07 03:37:45 <dar10s> hey ... as a new droid dev ... i try out all these gitHub repos and keep getting errors. is there something Im completely missing ?
Aug 07 03:38:32 <dar10s> RxAndroid demo & the Udacity Firebase demo. will not even load or build ter or AS
Aug 07 03:48:52 <ac_slater_> hey guys. I have a TextView I use as a huge log. Sometimes it gets to megabytes of text. Is the text kept in memory?
Aug 07 03:48:58 <ac_slater_> as in, should I rotating or something?
Aug 07 03:52:20 <g00s> that sounds like a bad idea :D
Aug 07 03:55:10 <CedricBeust>  Rotating will move megabytes of memory from one place to another, really not a good idea
Aug 07 03:55:18 <CedricBeust> like g00s said, you don't need that much data
Aug 07 03:56:26 <ac_slater_> right. I think I should just rotate to a file. This can have upwards of hundreds of MBs as it's intended to be open a lot
Aug 07 03:57:19 <ac_slater_> I guess I really trying to see if these strings were all just kept in memory. I was hoping for a truncate method or something
Aug 07 03:57:22 <ac_slater_> thanks guys
Aug 07 03:57:23 <CedricBeust> Why would you even have that much data in a text view? Think the user is going to read 1MB of text?
Aug 07 03:57:37 <ac_slater_> yea ;)
Aug 07 03:58:16 <ac_slater_> literally, there are things that need logged overtime and people need to read. 1Mb of text is not much once you consider formatting and shit
Aug 07 03:58:21 <ac_slater_> or filtering
Aug 07 03:58:52 <CedricBeust> It's preposterous. Nobody will read 1Mb of text
Aug 07 04:17:24 <ac_slater_> CedricBeust: think of it this way. I'm using a textview as remote log output (like syslog's udp target for example). It's possible that >1Mb is useful somewhere
Aug 07 04:17:57 <CedricBeust> I don't buy that. No human will read 1Mb. Search through it maybe, read it? Never. Don't do that.
Aug 07 04:18:26 <ac_slater_> CedricBeust: true. Litreally 'read' is wrong. I just want it somewhere.
Aug 07 04:18:48 <CedricBeust> Put a screenful worth of characters in the text view with "..." at the end, done.
Aug 07 04:19:03 <ac_slater_> so you're right. I was previously keeping many megabytes in a textview without noticing or caring since the target device has >1Hb
Aug 07 04:19:06 <ac_slater_> Gb *
Aug 07 04:19:24 <g00s> ac_slater_ is the log just a bunch of timestamped thingies ?
Aug 07 04:19:30 <ac_slater_> g00s: yea
Aug 07 04:19:50 <g00s> probably better off just using a recyclerView
Aug 07 04:19:58 <ac_slater_> oooo
Aug 07 04:20:25 <ac_slater_> awesome
Aug 07 04:21:02 <g00s> also, look at Listview transcript mode
Aug 07 04:21:28 <ac_slater_> interesting
Aug 07 04:22:38 <CedricBeust> Still no good reason to hold 1Mb of user facing text
Aug 07 04:23:56 <barodapride> I don't know much about shaders but is there a simple blur shader I can plop into my libgdx game?
Aug 07 04:36:20 <w4ffles> barodapride if you  render the scene to a texture its pretty easty to do with a simple blur  kernel
Aug 07 04:38:59 <barodapride> ok, I'll have to google it up
Aug 07 05:03:41 <w4ffles> man firefox is  killing me
Aug 07 05:04:25 <g00s> w4ffles lol, i just tried that little experimental feature, to put your tabs on the side - it ate all my cpu
Aug 07 05:05:03 <g00s> ff doesn't use resources well on my mac, so i use safari. it seems to be best in that regards
Aug 07 05:07:16 <g00s> w4ffles this thing - tab center : https://testpilot.firefox.com
Aug 07 05:11:20 <w4ffles> that looks pretty cool
Aug 07 05:11:35 <w4ffles> reminds me of opera
Aug 07 06:55:27 <arancio> Hello
Aug 07 06:55:39 <arancio> I'm following a tutorial about content providers: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/android/android_content_providers.htm
Aug 07 06:55:51 <arancio> The code calls getContentResolver() inside an Activity (AppCompatActivity). That method is defined just as throw new RuntimeException("Stub!"); in Context and it's not overridden in the tutorial code.
Aug 07 06:56:09 <arancio> The result is an application crash, obviously.
Aug 07 06:56:19 <arancio> What is that method supposed to do?
Aug 07 06:56:53 <arancio> Why is it called in this tutorial https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-provider-basics.html too without being defined?
Aug 07 07:05:20 <iprime> arancio, hmm?
Aug 07 07:05:27 <iprime> it is defined
Aug 07 07:05:39 <Leeds> arancio: if it crashes, show the strack trace
Aug 07 07:06:10 <arancio> public ContentResolver getContentResolver() {
Aug 07 07:06:12 <arancio>         throw new RuntimeException("Stub!");
Aug 07 07:06:13 <arancio>     }
Aug 07 07:06:22 <arancio> That's the definition I see
Aug 07 07:07:38 <iprime> that's because some subclass should take care of implementation
Aug 07 07:08:01 <CedricBeust> Better make it abstract then
Aug 07 07:08:48 <arancio> It's really confusing. Android documentation says it is abstract
Aug 07 07:09:03 <arancio> Sorry but I'm totally new to android. This is my first tutorial
Aug 07 07:09:21 <CedricBeust> Tackling content resolvers as a total beginner is hard
Aug 07 07:09:30 <iprime> arancio, just don't think about it, why are you looking into android's internals?
Aug 07 07:09:51 <iprime> in your activity getContentResolver will return an object, shouldn't crash the app
Aug 07 07:10:02 <arancio> because when I click a button, the application crashes. I'm stepping into the call. 1 sec
Aug 07 07:10:08 <Leeds> iprime: which is why I asked for a stack trace...
Aug 07 07:10:13 <iprime> arancio, it probably crashes for another reason
Aug 07 07:10:16 <iprime> Leeds, indeed
Aug 07 07:11:00 <iprime> i'm betting on an NPE :)
Aug 07 07:11:56 <arancio> There is something wrong going on here. I'm stepping into the calls around the point where the application crashes and all I see are methods throwing exception. Even Uri.parse() looks defined like that
Aug 07 07:12:53 <iprime> arancio, can't you just pull the stack trace like Leeds suggested
Aug 07 07:12:56 <arancio> Yeah, even the Uri constructor is a stub!
Aug 07 07:13:10 <iprime> you should use pastie.org or similar service tho
Aug 07 07:14:11 <arancio> there is no trace. The app crashes on the phone and the debugger goes blank
Aug 07 07:14:31 <arancio> even when I'm stepping over
Aug 07 07:14:38 <arancio> I'm confused
Aug 07 07:14:49 <iprime> do you see any log at all? in 'logcat'?
Aug 07 07:15:25 <Leeds> when you say 'crashes' - you mean it just silently exits?
Aug 07 07:15:58 <arancio> Ok. I got a trace
Aug 07 07:16:01 <arancio> 1 sec
Aug 07 07:16:57 <arancio> Sometimes it just exists and sometime I guess I dialog "Unfortunately, My application has stopped." Now I got the dialog and a trace. I'm pasting it, 1 sec
Aug 07 07:18:33 * Leeds twiddles thumbs
Aug 07 07:20:23 <arancio> Here it is: http://pastebin.com/V2jmVJsP
Aug 07 07:20:39 <arancio> pastie.com is not very responsive
Aug 07 07:20:43 <arancio> today
Aug 07 07:20:58 <iprime> it pretty much tells you what's wrong
Aug 07 07:21:57 <iprime> which is:  Unknown URL content://com.example.provider.College/students
Aug 07 07:22:02 <iprime> have you defined such provider?
Aug 07 07:23:14 <arancio> uh, I saw it now. It should be defined as far as I can understand. I'll look into it.
Aug 07 07:24:00 <arancio> Thanks for the guidance so far. I was a bit lost. I didn't even see the stack trace before. I'm accustomed to Visual Studio
Aug 07 07:24:23 <iprime> lol
Aug 07 07:24:34 <iprime> yeah well, i suggest you read up on some docs
Aug 07 07:26:47 <arancio> That's what I'm trying. It's my first day
Aug 07 07:26:52 <arancio> Sorry
Aug 07 07:27:41 <iprime> oh it's fine, it just seems that starting android with content resolvers might be steep as someone's mentioned
Aug 07 07:27:52 <iprime> do you want to build a concrete app or are just learning/exploring?
Aug 07 07:29:17 <arancio> I have an application in mind but at the same time it's hard to figure how to make a complex application without an overview of the platform. So today I'll be just "exploring" following some tutorials
Aug 07 07:31:13 <Leeds> better to start with things like the application lifecycle
Aug 07 07:37:40 <arancio> Leeds: this tutorial has several chapters. One of the previous chapters was about activity lifecycle
Aug 07 07:39:19 <arancio> Is it what you mean? This is the tutorial: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/android/
Aug 07 08:14:33 <hero_biz> hi all
Aug 07 08:15:40 <_xor> To the people here who have and/or are currently using Kotlin: How's it looking these days?  Worth using in a production project?
Aug 07 08:15:51 <_xor> I'm going to take a closer look later today, but just curious :)
Aug 07 08:17:40 <hero_biz> guys, I have 2 pages of views for my app. one important and the other is less important, but I like quick switching between them.
Aug 07 08:18:19 <hero_biz> at first I thought to add them to a viewpager in portrait mode, and side y side in landscape.
Aug 07 08:18:40 <hero_biz> with fragments.
Aug 07 08:19:16 <hero_biz> but because I need to update them a lot from activity and they are just 2 fragments, I thought maybe using fragments is not a good idea.
Aug 07 08:19:28 <hero_biz> so I could use approach here:
Aug 07 08:19:39 <hero_biz> https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/viewpager-without-fragments/
Aug 07 08:19:57 <hero_biz> and handling them all in activity will eb better.
Aug 07 08:20:00 <hero_biz> what do you think?
Aug 07 09:24:16 <Deadsh0t> Can anyone suggest custom ROM for HTC desire 816G
Aug 07 09:38:23 <MikeClassic> Deadsh0t: Go to #android-root and ask there :)
Aug 07 09:38:43 <Deadsh0t> Ok
Aug 07 09:42:58 <michael_mbp> hi all, I'm looking to hire a freelance dev urgently, please PM me.
Aug 07 09:56:19 <SimonVT> michael_mbp: No advertising, jobs or otherwise
Aug 07 09:57:47 <arthcp> I am making an app that plays a video on loop... but after some repeats the video starts freezing and lagging
Aug 07 09:57:57 <arthcp> any idea why this happens?
Aug 07 10:00:43 <EPG> my crystal ball shows a memleak
Aug 07 10:38:13 <michael_mbp> Oh sorry SimonVT
Aug 07 10:48:03 <michael_mbp> SimonVT: any advice please, on how I could find a dev short-notice?
Aug 07 10:48:13 <michael_mbp> and I'm looking for someone experienced.
Aug 07 10:49:45 <SimonVT> Nope, just not here
Aug 07 10:53:41 <michael_mbp> ok thanks.
Aug 07 11:47:53 <meinteil> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38807634/google-play-game-services-save-feature-not-working-consistently <- anyone familiar with GPGS and save?
Aug 07 11:52:36 <iprime> michael_mbp, what kind of project are you building?
Aug 07 12:44:46 <lg188> Hey, I'm wondering if it's possible to hide or not render a fragment until I do something else? Because currently I have the fragments all loaded...
Aug 07 12:45:57 <lg188> or if it's possible to change fragment
Aug 07 12:46:25 <lignux> lg188, i don't know about fragments but you can check out the setVisible() method. You can set if a view is visible, invisible or not drawn at all ircc. Maybe that will help
Aug 07 12:51:49 <lg188> lignux: mhm, it does draw the space for it, right?
Aug 07 12:52:04 <lg188> That might help indeed
Aug 07 12:58:29 <lignux> lg188, you can set if you want to draw space for it or not
Aug 07 13:15:04 <lg188> I want it to lol, just not sure if it is default behaviour
Aug 07 13:17:55 <arancio> Is the MVVM pattern actually used in Android development?
Aug 07 14:13:34 <gener1c> hey , i want to programatically edit shared_prefs of a certain app i have ,
Aug 07 14:13:37 <gener1c>                  but each reboot it reqrites the old prefs back to the /data/data/appname
Aug 07 14:13:52 <gener1c> rewrites
Aug 07 14:15:25 <mmkumr> Hey guys. I've just started to learn android development. And I have just completed my Java basics. Where should I start? Read a book? Or study from the website (https://developer.android.com/training) ...???
Aug 07 14:28:06 * mmkumr is waiting!!
Aug 07 14:45:28 <pfn> study website
Aug 07 14:50:56 <Eplebit> and be prepared to enter a very confusing world...
Aug 07 14:53:36 <pfn> it's not confusing if you know how to read
Aug 07 14:53:50 <pfn> sadly, most people here seem not to
Aug 07 14:58:08 <adq> they know how to read youtube title, sadly
Aug 07 14:58:39 <g00s> adq back from vacation ?
Aug 07 14:59:28 <adq> not sure i'm done yet :>
Aug 07 14:59:29 <iridescascade> i'm trying to communicate to a background service from an activity with localbroadcastmanager but for some reason my broadcast receiver isn't picking up the local broadcast, even if I use getapplicationcontext for both.  i am registering the receiver in service onCreate and unregistering in onDestroy
Aug 07 15:00:04 <iridescascade> is it not working because the service is in a separate process?
Aug 07 15:03:17 <g00s> iridescascade that is correct
Aug 07 15:03:24 <g00s> LBM is for in-process only
Aug 07 15:07:52 <iridescascade> eventbus and its ilk has the same problem, guess I have to do full broadcasts or some binder stuff
Aug 07 15:12:30 <g00s> iridescascade yeah Messenger, binder, etc
Aug 07 15:12:35 <g00s> i'd avoid broadcasts
Aug 07 15:13:02 <iridescascade> yeah, i don't want to do broadcasts if avoidable.
Aug 07 15:13:16 <iridescascade> thanks for confirming
Aug 07 15:14:55 <pfn> nothing wrong with doing broadcast
Aug 07 15:15:30 <pfn> using a messenger and binder is far more complex
Aug 07 15:16:10 <pfn> if you need 2way communication, by all means, use them
Aug 07 15:16:31 <pfn> but for 1 way messaging stick to broadcast
Aug 07 15:16:57 <iridescascade> broadcasts leak data though?
Aug 07 15:17:41 <pfn> they don't
Aug 07 15:18:12 <pfn> you can target broadcasts so only a single component can receive it
Aug 07 15:18:42 <pfn> you can also restrict receiving. broadcasts by permission
Aug 07 15:18:54 <pfn> the converse for sending is also available
Aug 07 15:21:47 <g00s> since iridescascade already has a bg service, binder / messenger are easier
Aug 07 15:25:17 <iridescascade> I'll see which results in less code. Already have much boilerplate
Aug 07 15:29:55 <pfn> a messenger and binder are universally harder
Aug 07 15:30:48 <pfn> only time it's easier is if you want 2way
Aug 07 15:43:49 <g00s> iridescascade are you already binding to the bg service ?
Aug 07 15:44:09 <g00s> or is it more decoupled, like putting stuff in content provider, etc
Aug 07 15:47:28 <iridescascade> the activity is only to edit some settings, no binding
Aug 07 15:48:14 <g00s> but why is the service in separate process ?
Aug 07 15:48:34 <iridescascade> it starts at boot
Aug 07 15:50:06 <drose379> in ImageView#setImageBitmap(Bitmap), does the Bitmap get stored anywhere or just displayed?
Aug 07 15:50:20 <drose379> Im wondering if I change that bitmap later, will the imageview's display update or not?
Aug 07 15:51:46 <g00s> iridescascade this is what i had in mind https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/blob/master/AdvServices/RemoteClientEx/src/com/commonsware/android/advservice/client/BshServiceDemo.java
Aug 07 15:52:22 <g00s> but yeah, lots of ways to skin the cat. if you go broadcast route, make sure other apps can't spoof them and send them to you
Aug 07 15:52:32 <g00s> if thats a concern
Aug 07 15:53:03 <gdev> Q about Localization: Default is en.  If there is an translation for de_AT, but not for de_DE will de_DE load all untranslated from de_AT or load Translations from en?
Aug 07 15:53:05 <iridescascade> well the update is just to let the service know the connection settings changed, it would not accomplish a lot :D
Aug 07 15:54:21 <pfn> again, ezpz with a broadcast
Aug 07 15:55:47 <pfn> gdev, en
Aug 07 15:55:57 <pfn> make a values-de if you want a fallback for de_AT
Aug 07 15:57:06 <gdev> pfn: And why is that so? The problem is, that the service prodviding translations do not submit   values-de but rather values-de-rDE
Aug 07 15:58:38 <pfn> so? move them
Aug 07 15:59:45 <gdev> would be no problem, but the service has GitHub integration, and automatically repushes then :)
Aug 07 15:59:55 <gdev> note: crowdin ;)
Aug 07 16:11:44 <gdev> pfn: sorry and thanks for your help!
Aug 07 16:17:58 <Kake_Fisk> For calculating the tilt with the accelerometer, do you use two or all three axes in the calculation? Ie. atan2(Gy, Gz) or atan2(Gy, sqrt(Gx*Gx + Gz*Gz))
Aug 07 16:22:47 <meinteil> Is there noone using Google Play Game Services?
Aug 07 16:38:48 <drose379> Anyone ever worked with Shared element activity transitions? Cant get it to work
Aug 07 16:39:48 <drose379> The shared element is in a listview, going to detail view
Aug 07 16:42:28 <drose379> Can I do this from a fragment to a full activity?
Aug 07 17:03:38 <drose379> Anyone know if its possible to do a shared element transition from a fragment with a listview to a full activity?
Aug 07 17:04:44 <pfn> of course it is
Aug 07 17:06:03 <drose379> Anything special I have to do? I just had it all set up and it wasent working pfn
Aug 07 17:06:10 <drose379> The shared element was a WebView
Aug 07 17:06:23 <pfn> nothing special
Aug 07 17:07:11 <drose379> Any idea why it wouldnt work? I just grabbed the view from the listview in the frag, and passed it along with ActivityOptionsCompat.toBundle
Aug 07 17:07:25 <drose379> it was doing a different transition but no WebView showed up
Aug 07 17:11:54 <drose379> Wait what is sharedElementName? I thought it was supposed to be the transitionName
Aug 07 17:12:42 <drose379> Is that just transitionName
Aug 07 17:31:15 <iprime> drose379, aren't there docs/examples for this?
Aug 07 17:33:53 <drose379> Yes, not working for me though iprime
Aug 07 17:34:18 <iprime> not working with any view or just the web view?
Aug 07 17:34:50 <drose379> I've only tried it with the WebView
Aug 07 17:55:19 <firemouth> Does anyone know how to check if a record exists in a firebase DB for android?  I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do something that I would think is really simple to do...
Aug 07 18:07:08 <firemouth> I'm having a really hard time adapting to this no sql stuff...
Aug 07 18:08:15 <firemouth> what I'm trying to do is select top 1 * from mytable where userid = "asdf"
Aug 07 18:08:50 <firemouth> actually...  select count(*) from mytable where userid = "asdf"
Aug 07 18:09:03 <firemouth> thats really all I'm looking to do
Aug 07 18:09:25 <firemouth> except asdf would be the generated UID from when the user created their account
Aug 07 18:19:16 <djapo> hello world, is there a way to tell android emulator to boot into recovery mode?
Aug 07 18:19:25 <djapo> i have tried the standard adb thing
Aug 07 18:49:48 <eghdk> What's the best way to abstract out the networking layer in my application? Joined a new project. My first task is to modularize and write tests for the networking side... but I'm kinda lost on where to actually start.
Aug 07 18:58:47 <iridescascade> pfn: i'm trying to get broadcasts to go only to my service. when i don't add intent.setClass(getApplicationContext(), MyService.class) it works but when I add it, it stops working. tried intent.SetComponent(new ComponentName("packagestring", "packagestring.MyService")) it doesn't work either
Aug 07 19:01:10 <eghdk> iridescascade: What kind of broadcasts?
Aug 07 19:01:21 <eghdk> are they your own broadcasts?
Aug 07 19:01:24 <iridescascade> yeah
Aug 07 19:01:44 <eghdk> Are you using LocalBroadcast?
Aug 07 19:01:48 <iridescascade> no
Aug 07 19:02:02 <iridescascade> it's a separate process service
Aug 07 19:02:25 <eghdk> Oh okay. nvm then. I thought it was your own broadcast in the same process.
Aug 07 19:04:42 <pfn> should work fine
Aug 07 19:14:10 <iridescascade> I switched to intent.setPackage(getPackageName()) and that works, should be sufficient :D
Aug 07 19:39:33 <firemouth> Does anyone know how to check if a record exists in a firebase DB for android?
Aug 07 20:17:11 <firemouth> Should an app be designed so its asynchronous?
Aug 07 20:17:26 <firemouth> ie, not waiting for a DB call to return data before moving on programmically?
Aug 07 20:17:43 <firemouth> I'm used to PHP
Aug 07 20:23:26 <g00s> firemouth yes
Aug 07 20:23:51 <firemouth> g00s: so...  any hints / suggestions how i could check to see if a user exists, and if it doesn't, add it into the database?
Aug 07 20:23:56 <firemouth> or am i going about this the wrong way
Aug 07 20:24:02 <g00s> but your question is still somewhat ambiguous , and its a big topic
Aug 07 20:24:20 <firemouth> g00s: no argument, i'm trying to wrap my head around app development...  very different from my experience
Aug 07 20:24:22 <g00s> you do all of those things off the main / ui thread
Aug 07 20:25:04 <firemouth> not in the onCreate?
Aug 07 20:25:15 <g00s> firemouth luck for you, a new book came out https://www.amazon.com/Android-Concurrency-About-Deep-Dive/dp/0134177436
Aug 07 20:26:54 <g00s> but there are plenty of blogs / articles discussing this too , so
Aug 07 20:27:09 <meinteil> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38807634/google-play-game-services-save-feature-not-working-consistently <- anyone familiar with GPGS and save? Only every 2nd commit gets saved...i have to save twice for it to work...how come? what am I doing wrong?
Aug 07 20:27:24 <g00s> meinteil you ask this q about GPGS every day ...
Aug 07 20:27:25 <firemouth> i have a feeling i'm going about this the wrong way ...
Aug 07 20:28:02 <TheSchaf> meinteil: it is more likely that someone will look at your code when you do minimal examples, not a bunch of code
Aug 07 20:28:53 <g00s> firemouth probably a good place to start is I/O session on architecture
Aug 07 20:29:25 <g00s> firemouth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70WqJxymPr8
Aug 07 20:29:26 <firemouth> g00s: probably.  just having a hard time believing that checking for a user id in a database is so difficult :)
Aug 07 20:29:32 <g00s> there is a repository on github to study
Aug 07 20:30:17 <g00s> you might start the operation in onCreate - but you shouldn't block the UI thread waiting for it
Aug 07 20:31:34 <g00s> on that note "Japanese Olympic champion racks up $5,000 bill playing Pokémon Go in Brazil" lol
Aug 07 20:31:51 <firemouth> g00s: lol yeah i saw that...  welcome to roaming rates
Aug 07 20:33:22 <firemouth> if it makes any sense...  I'm using a listener on a firebase object to check if the userid exists in my users table.  If it does, I want it to then continue getting the current information from the database for that user.  If it doesn't, I want it to push the object I'm using into the DB.
Aug 07 20:33:30 <firemouth> well, push is teh wrong word, I'm actually setting it
Aug 07 20:33:59 <g00s> firemouth also look at rxjava
Aug 07 20:34:31 <Kake_Fisk> Is it easy to get 360 tilt sensing with accelerometer?
Aug 07 20:34:34 <g00s> although, a lot of the GMS stuff is async and i never bothered using rx with it, kinda a mess
Aug 07 20:34:48 <firemouth> I'm doing my best to keep it simple and do it the "proper" way
Aug 07 20:34:59 <firemouth> I really don't think I'm doing anything all that complicated, lol
Aug 07 20:35:10 <firemouth> Check if user is in DB... if not, create it.
Aug 07 20:35:23 <firemouth> but I've been watching videos / googling for a few hours now.
Aug 07 20:35:36 <firemouth> getting kind of beat down for such a simple task... lol
Aug 07 20:35:47 <firemouth> could spit this out of PHP in my sleep
Aug 07 20:36:51 <firemouth> just thinking out loud..  i'm wondering if I should approach it differently...
Aug 07 20:37:03 <firemouth> like, try to update it and if it doesn't exist the DB will automatically create it?
Aug 07 20:37:26 <firemouth> set kind of works that way, but the problem I have is if a user saved additional information, that is lost.
Aug 07 20:37:53 <firemouth> because the set command automatically deletes any keys that you don't pass to it
Aug 07 20:37:58 <g00s> firemouth its tricky coordinating all the lolcycles with async ops, much ink has been spilled, the debate continues, people are still looking for better ways
Aug 07 20:38:35 <firemouth> g00s: yeah... having a hard time wrapping my head around it :)  Been stuck in sequential land for too long.
Aug 07 20:38:51 <firemouth> feels like i need to know whats happening everywhere all the time
Aug 07 20:39:02 <firemouth> and that gives me the feeling i'm going about it the wrong way ;)
Aug 07 20:39:24 <g00s> the guy who did ^^ presentation also has https://github.com/yigit/android-priority-jobqueue
Aug 07 20:39:38 <g00s> but its going slow, doesn't seem to be working on it much
Aug 07 21:21:03 <drose379> Best way to simulate slow network speeds on the emulator?
Aug 07 21:40:28 <lignux> I have a problem with permissions. I have android.permissions.READ_CONTACT added in the manifest file but when i run the app it still says permision denied -> required android.permission.READ_CONTACT
Aug 07 21:40:45 <lignux> anyone have any idea why's that?
Aug 08 00:36:48 <drose379> Anyone ever worked with WebView, for some reason whwnever I load from cache, the image in the webview only displays every other time
Aug 08 01:28:23 <Cmaj6> How can i update Google Play Services on a AVD? (Nexus 5 Api 23 x86)
Aug 08 01:29:15 <g00s> Cmaj6 can't really
Aug 08 01:29:28 <Cmaj6> then i dun goof'ed hard
Aug 08 01:29:34 <g00s> i mean, you can find some hack on google but there is no push-button official way to do it
Aug 08 01:30:12 <Cmaj6> so what's the work around, targetting a lower version? If so, how do i do that
Aug 08 01:30:51 <Cmaj6> The version on the AVD is 8087470, the AVD is running API 23
Aug 08 01:31:00 <Cmaj6> how can i target the version that's currently on the AVD
Aug 08 01:31:17 <g00s> just change your app's dependency to use 8.0 O.o
Aug 08 01:31:33 <Cmaj6> lol
Aug 08 01:33:01 <g00s> actually i'm not sure if thats 8.1 8.3 or 8.4
