**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Nov 30 03:00:01 2016
Nov 30 03:00:21 <Melatonina> Where can I find a TextView by id and call setText()?
Nov 30 03:07:55 <TacticalJoke> Melatonina: You could do it in onCreateDialog.  But you'd have to say something like `getActivity().getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.whatever)`.
Nov 30 03:08:17 <TacticalJoke> Or subclass some ViewGroup and do that in `onFinishInflate`.
Nov 30 03:08:53 <Melatonina> I think I found the way. But I still have to run it to see if I did it properly. I'll report back in few minutes
Nov 30 03:09:45 <TacticalJoke> Man, DrawerLayout is a buggy piece of ****.
Nov 30 03:09:53 <TacticalJoke> Not intercepting clicks when it should be.
Nov 30 03:10:26 <TacticalJoke> It's almost a guarantee that every nontrivial Android component will have show-stopping bugs.
Nov 30 03:11:21 <_genuser_> dialogfragment? I just find the oncreate equivalent and dump code in there.
Nov 30 03:11:46 <TacticalJoke> _genuser_: If he's using AlertDialog.Builder, he can't.
Nov 30 03:11:54 <TacticalJoke> Unfortunately.
Nov 30 03:12:26 <_genuser_> TacticalJoke: ugh, do you always have to be right?
Nov 30 03:12:28 <_genuser_> :p
Nov 30 03:12:47 <TacticalJoke> Not always.  Sometimes I just make the statement anyway, hoping that I'll be proved wrong.
Nov 30 03:13:06 <TacticalJoke> Though, to be fair, I usually preface it with "I'm not sure".
Nov 30 03:13:10 <_genuser_> I had to, recently, build a super custom dialog so that app itself is locked to horizontal but the dialog changes orientation.
Nov 30 03:13:20 <_genuser_> talked about a pointless little thing that's only useful in just that one app.
Nov 30 03:14:27 <TacticalJoke> To be honest, I hate DialogFragment.  And every Fragment.  Hate it all.
Nov 30 03:14:35 <TacticalJoke> It's all so picky.
Nov 30 03:14:39 <_genuser_> no, don't say that, they'll hear you!!!
Nov 30 03:14:49 <_genuser_> I lovez t3h fragmintz.
Nov 30 03:15:09 <_genuser_> setretaininstance and bypass all the dumbassery required to maintain state across orientation changes.
Nov 30 03:15:46 <TacticalJoke> _genuser_: setRetainInstance just uses the (now-not-deprecated) onOverrideCustomNonConfigurationInstance (or whatever the dumb name is).
Nov 30 03:16:04 <TacticalJoke> onRetainNonConfigurationInstance*
Nov 30 03:16:21 <_genuser_> oh, now "not deprecated". so it's hip to use it ?
Nov 30 03:17:18 <_genuser_> from docs: "If you are targeting HONEYCOMB or later, consider instead using a Fragment with Fragment.setRetainInstance(boolean."
Nov 30 03:17:44 <_genuser_> so right, I guess setRetainInstance is just a shortcut. A welcome one, I suppose. I have all teh wiring.
Nov 30 03:17:50 <_genuser_> *I hate all the wiring.
Nov 30 03:18:07 <TacticalJoke> Here's the non-deprecation thing: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=151346
Nov 30 03:19:47 <_genuser_> so in API 24, they "undeprecated" it?
Nov 30 03:19:52 <_genuser_> or marked is resolved somehow else?
Nov 30 03:20:00 <TacticalJoke> They undeprecated it.
Nov 30 03:20:07 <_genuser_> nice.
Nov 30 03:20:17 <_genuser_> Love nerds fighting online, using lingo I have no clue about. heh
Nov 30 03:35:04 <TacticalJoke> Yeah, I enjoy that.  e.g., Linus versus Tanenbaum.
Nov 30 03:39:38 <sparr> where would I start if I want an app to perform an action when another app sends an SMS (and that SMS is inserted into the system SMS database)?
Nov 30 03:40:01 <sparr> ifttt and tasker seem to both be able to do it, but I don't know how
Nov 30 03:44:16 <sleepster> is there a way to determine which port my emulator is using?
Nov 30 03:45:25 <sleepster> I know adb devices will tell me but if I am running multiple emulators, I cannot determine which of my "emulator" calls maps to which port
Nov 30 03:45:35 <sleepster> since the "emulator" command will just pick the next available
Nov 30 03:50:24 <sleepster> if only the emulator command allowed you to specify the serial number instead of a port
Nov 30 03:50:33 <sleepster> this must have been an oversight
Nov 30 03:57:23 <orbyt_> Hmm, if you switch the apps name and update the apk in the store, users wont end up with 2 separate launcher icons rights? Im assuming itll just update the apps name under the icon automatically
Nov 30 05:11:55 <GBGames> I have been trying to reduce the battery usage of my game. The thing is, I don't know what might be typical. How long do you expect to run a game before it drops your battery by 10%? Or what would be a better way to think about this?
Nov 30 05:29:36 <raj> how do I know if my phone is armv7 or x86?
Nov 30 05:34:11 <Leeds> it's very very likely arm...
Nov 30 05:34:21 <raj> thank you
Nov 30 05:34:44 <raj> you wouldn't have happened to use ionic before, have you?
Nov 30 05:37:59 <Leeds> nope
Nov 30 05:38:27 <Leeds> for what it's worth, you can look up your phone on something like gsmarena if you want to confirm the CPU
Nov 30 05:51:14 <raj> Leeds, any idea what could be the issue here: http://paste.ofcode.org/ACRXGjSUzanFYzwhptX5nB
Nov 30 05:59:21 <Melatonina> How do I make an AlertDialog resize to wrap the content?
Nov 30 05:59:45 <Melatonina> I didn't remember dialogs behaving this way but apparently they don't resize by default.
Nov 30 06:21:10 <Leeds> raj: for a start, use debug signing at least
Nov 30 06:44:51 <Melatonina> hi Leeds
Nov 30 07:09:33 <sam_yan> Should all devices need to implement its own structure  by HAL?such as mmc devices
Nov 30 07:24:14 <sparr> Which, if any, android broadcast intent is triggered when an app sends an SMS and/or saves that sent SMS to the system SMS database?
Nov 30 07:30:09 <sam_yan> SMS?
Nov 30 07:34:11 <android066> hey guys, anyone has issues with multidex on api<19 with espresso (on build tools 25.0.1)?
Nov 30 07:36:22 <sparr> sam_yan: "texting"
Nov 30 07:36:33 <sparr> MEssages
Nov 30 07:44:59 <sam_yan> sparr: ok
Nov 30 09:03:03 <zedz> hi!
Nov 30 09:04:28 <zedz> can i get edittext's value via annotations?
Nov 30 09:05:11 <zedz> for example if I have something like @customAnno private EditText mInput, how can i get mInput's value?
Nov 30 09:45:36 <Odaym> hey fellas
Nov 30 09:45:55 <Odaym> how would I inject into a class? not an activity or anything, just a factory class
Nov 30 09:47:12 <Odaym> one moment
Nov 30 09:50:53 <Odaym> where is Syzeyyzfhfgy
Nov 30 10:24:04 <nyuszika7h> 2016-11-30 19:43:35 <-- Syzygy_ (506e1f91@gateway/web/freenode/ip.80.110.31.145) has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
Nov 30 10:52:21 <Odaym> ah thanks nyuszika7h
Nov 30 10:54:03 <Odaym> ok I have the problem, I cannot inject into a standalone class?
Nov 30 10:54:18 <Odaym> because for me to inject I have to supply this line `    ((GMFit_Application) application).getAppComponent().inject(this);`
Nov 30 10:54:25 <Odaym> where application is also injected
Nov 30 10:54:30 <Odaym> it's a Context object
Nov 30 11:00:04 <Odaym> that's impossible, of course I can inject into a standalone class?
Nov 30 11:06:16 <Odaym> pduin, remember yesterday when you said that thing about alert dialog
Nov 30 11:06:20 <Odaym> and it being non-theme aware
Nov 30 11:07:06 <pduin> yes
Nov 30 11:13:57 <astroduck> maxlines="1" and ellpisize"end" is clipping whole words instead of characters in my textview. Any idea why?
Nov 30 11:14:24 <Odaym> well I first ran into that problem of the themeless dialog, but there is a constructor which you can use where you can give it your theme, so that's easy
Nov 30 11:15:08 <Odaym> but now I run into  Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application
Nov 30 11:15:35 <Odaym> doesnt know where its context is
Nov 30 11:16:12 <Odaym> think I very well might have clusterfucked myself
Nov 30 11:16:54 <astroduck> Odaym: Don't use application context, use activity context
Nov 30 11:17:01 <Odaym> well, I know that
Nov 30 11:17:05 <Odaym> but I'm not sitting in the Activity
Nov 30 11:17:22 <Odaym> I'm sitting in the AppModule, where Im trying to inject things and see how this whole thing works
Nov 30 11:17:56 <astroduck> I don't think you can add dialog to window without activity
Nov 30 11:17:58 <pduin> I think it's easiest to let go of the idea of injecting a static dialog, and just creating one when you need it
Nov 30 11:18:20 <Odaym> it's pretty stupid but I couldn't have found out until I tried
Nov 30 11:18:29 <Odaym> I think it's impossible to get who the calling activity is without..being there
Nov 30 11:20:01 <astroduck> Among activities if you use startactivityforresult, you can use getcallingactivity to get parent activity
Nov 30 11:20:12 <Odaym> yea that's another case
Nov 30 11:20:20 <Odaym> im in a standalone class now
Nov 30 11:20:26 <Odaym> besides I shouldn't be able to do that
Nov 30 11:20:33 <Odaym> so much confusion
Nov 30 11:20:49 <CyberJacob> Adding a search to my leanback app
Nov 30 11:20:55 <CyberJacob> anybody know the MIME type for breakfast?
Nov 30 11:29:52 <gordon_> hello, is it possible to use exoplayer2 with websockets ?
Nov 30 11:42:18 <Odaym> so no injection for stuff that relies on an activity context explicitly
Nov 30 11:42:21 <Odaym> just...don't
Nov 30 11:42:25 <Odaym> tell the others!
Nov 30 11:42:29 * Odaym sulks
Nov 30 12:08:52 <winegoddess> hi all
Nov 30 12:09:37 <homa_> hi my friends
Nov 30 12:14:06 <GBGames> I have been trying to reduce the battery usage of my game. The thing is, I don't know what might be typical. How long do you expect to run a game before it drops your battery by 10%? Or what would be a better way to think about this?
Nov 30 12:20:10 <Ashiren> is this some fancy graphics intensive game
Nov 30 12:23:02 <adq> GBGames, you have to profile your app/game, find costly calls and make them cost less
Nov 30 12:23:38 <adq> the more you use the cpu and the gpu, the more it impacfts the battery..
Nov 30 12:28:29 <GBGames> Ashiren: No, it isn't, but I know I'm not running it as optimally as I can.
Nov 30 12:29:22 <Ashiren> so optimize it as you can
Nov 30 12:29:30 <GBGames> adq: Sure, and I learned that rendering was the most costly, so I've reduced the number of times I redraw the screen needlessly, but otherwise I still seem to drop the battery by almost 10% in 30 minutes of play.
Nov 30 12:29:59 <Ashiren> first think of cpu/gpu usage
Nov 30 12:30:13 <Ashiren> then battery will benefit from it indirectly
Nov 30 12:30:58 <adq> ^
Nov 30 12:31:35 <adq> you should not really base your assumptions on how battery decreases (it's not even linear)
Nov 30 12:31:42 <GBGames> Ok, thanks for the advice!
Nov 30 12:31:59 <adq> just identify costly calls, optimize them to make them less costly, and so on
Nov 30 12:32:20 <GBGames> Yeah, I figured it would be different depending on any number of factors (how warm my room is, how much battery charge is there, etc).
Nov 30 12:32:40 <adq> take a slow/old device if you plan to measure performances
Nov 30 12:33:02 <adq> you will see more obviously what is costly and how you diminished the cost after opti
Nov 30 12:33:08 <adq> don't use a high-end device
Nov 30 12:34:04 <GBGames> And that's why I kept my old phone. B-)
Nov 30 12:34:12 <GBGames> I knew it would come in handy.
Nov 30 13:03:41 <min2> hi I have a grid view inside each list item but te issue is every list item taking equal height it not exapnding according to grid view items
Nov 30 13:04:49 <min2> does anyone know how to fix this... i tried everything
Nov 30 13:05:06 <min2> shall i post my code.
Nov 30 13:16:16 <azv4> strange I have autologin set in HexChat, but my client always manages to join this channel before being identified
Nov 30 13:16:25 <azv4> then Im shuffled to an unreg channel
Nov 30 13:39:13 <raoul11> wtf is with NotificationCompat.Builder, when setting a notification with setSmallIcon to one of my drawables, it loads the wrong icon
Nov 30 13:39:31 <raoul11> large one works
Nov 30 13:40:51 <adq> test on different api, you will be amazed of the discrepancy
Nov 30 13:41:10 <adq> start with just api 24, api 23 and api 21
Nov 30 13:42:15 <raoul11> am testing on 23 api, it crashes when i try load from mipmap, loads the wrong one from drawable, sometimes works on 19, sometimes not
Nov 30 13:42:22 <raoul11> how is that even possible?
Nov 30 13:45:45 <SqRt7744> I apologize in advance for being a n00b, but having gradle woes. Specifically, "This version of Android Studio is incompatible with the Gradle Plugin used.". Android Studio 2.2.2, Gradle 3.2.1 <- seems to be the newest I could find. My build.gradle uses: classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0-alpha2'
Nov 30 13:51:02 <MarkProffitt> I'm trying to send JSON to an API written in PHP using Slim framework. The parameters are not getting sent through.  THe values end up empty at the server.
Nov 30 13:53:16 <MasterScript> i have yaairc source. how to compile it? i want to make .apk
Nov 30 13:53:26 <SqRt7744> Thanks all, problem solved. Changed gradle version to 2.2.2 in build.gradle and it works.
Nov 30 13:53:42 <Ashiren> wee
Nov 30 13:54:12 <MarkProffitt> Why might a POST from Android end up with empty values at the API server?
Nov 30 13:57:34 <tx> because it's not set up properly
Nov 30 13:59:14 <Dagmar> MarkProffitt: Perhaps you didn't encode things properly?  Dump the entire query (header and body) to a text file on the server end and look at it.
Nov 30 14:21:10 <Odaym> well you're sending the wrong param names probably
Nov 30 14:40:07 <yiati> If I have modules a, b, and c, where b depends on a, and c depends on a, is there any good way to write some test classes that can be shared by all 3 modules
Nov 30 14:41:10 <yiati> testCompile in build.gradle seems to only be able to point to actual java source sets
Nov 30 14:42:28 <yiati> So currently I have a separate module x with shared test code in the java source set instead of test. It works, but only if I exclude lint check on the module x. Lint checks on module x simply freeze the gradle build process. No errors, no crashing, just fr eezes
Nov 30 14:43:03 <yiati> "./gradlew clean test -x :modulex:lint" works, "./gradlew clean test" freezes
Nov 30 14:47:11 <kbs> (all hail gradle :) haven't tried this, but notice there's a testRuntime configuration (for the java plugin at least)
Nov 30 14:48:01 <kbs> oh wait, you need it to compile too, d'oh :)
Nov 30 14:48:53 <yiati> http://google.github.io/android-gradle-dsl/current/com.android.build.gradle.api.AndroidSourceDirectorySet.html#com.android.build.gradle.api.AndroidSourceDirectorySet:srcDir(java.lang.Object)
Nov 30 14:48:55 <yiati> :|
Nov 30 14:48:57 <yiati> srcDir
Nov 30 14:49:06 <yiati> because addSrcDir is just too verbose
Nov 30 14:50:40 <yiati> Hmm maybe I could add a source directory relative to the project level
Nov 30 14:50:43 <yiati> I'll try that
Nov 30 14:50:47 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar:  this is the header    {"charset":"utf-8","Content-Type":"application\/json","Accept":"application\/json","User-Agent":"Dalvik\/2.1.0 (Linux; U; Android 5.0.2; Android SDK built for x86 Build\/LSY66K)","Host":"makevaluehappen.com","Connection":"Keep-Alive","Accept-Encoding":"gzip","Content-Length":"70"}{"uid":"fa4d5bfe-b70b-11e6-9147-040158666a01"}
Nov 30 14:56:15 <Dagmar> You can't put JSON in the header.  Problem solved.
Nov 30 14:58:52 <CyberJacob> Anybody know if calling requestFocus() on a SearchEditText breaks it's SearchResultProvider?
Nov 30 14:58:56 <CyberJacob> Looks like it does...
Nov 30 15:28:00 <mikeymop> does anyone know the functionality of androids network stack?
Nov 30 15:28:22 <mikeymop> Im lead to believe Android cannot fallback to a low wifi standard (AC -> N)
Nov 30 15:32:28 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar the JSON  is not in the header, I was wondering if something in the header was causing the JSON in the body to have empty values
Nov 30 15:33:32 <Dagmar> What you pasted in here was _JSON_
Nov 30 15:33:50 <Dagmar> It will never function as a POST query
Nov 30 15:35:19 <yiati> woooo
Nov 30 15:35:28 <yiati> I got it all to work with srcSet
Nov 30 15:35:44 <yiati> The same idea from http://blog.danlew.net/2015/11/02/sharing-code-between-unit-tests-and-instrumentation-tests-on-android/ works across modules as well
Nov 30 15:36:15 <yiati> I just changed 'src/sharedTest/java' to '../common-module/src/sharedTest/java'
Nov 30 15:40:19 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar, I'm pasting what is making it to the server
Nov 30 15:41:33 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar I'm using  postDataParams.put("event_type", "OverTemp");
Nov 30 15:41:33 <MarkProffitt>   to set the values
Nov 30 15:43:07 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar  The JSON names are making it but not the values   {"android_id":null,"event_type":null,"event_value":null,"event_version":null}
Nov 30 15:44:32 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar  Log.e("params", postDataParams.toString());     -->>    {"event_type":"OverTemp","event_value":444,"event_version":1,"android_id":"bbbbbbb"}
Nov 30 15:45:24 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar something is causing the values to be lost between Android and the API
Nov 30 15:46:20 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar I saw a similar problem when using  CURL if I reversed single quotes and double quotes
Nov 30 15:59:20 <MarkProffitt> Dagmar I figured it out
Nov 30 16:02:13 <skin1980> any http connection expert?
Nov 30 16:05:52 <yiati> skin1980: nope
Nov 30 16:06:14 <skin1980> yiati: tnx anyway
Nov 30 16:07:37 <yiati> skin1980: rule #1 http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/
Nov 30 17:22:53 <yiati> The required gradle versions here show 2.14.1+ as being compatible, but 3.x of gradle is released. Has anyone noticed any breaking changes switching to 3.x of gradle?
Nov 30 17:24:13 <yiati> Going to try it out now
Nov 30 17:24:15 <adq> no issue there yiati, i'm using distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.1-all.zip since few weeks
Nov 30 17:24:30 <yiati> nice
Nov 30 17:25:31 <yiati> so I usually update with something like "./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 3.2.1"
Nov 30 17:26:05 <yiati> adq: Do you just manually go into the gradle-wrapper.properties and change it to be 3.1-all
Nov 30 17:26:15 <fleshcorpse> who has android sms spoofer open source, i will pay $paypal
Nov 30 17:26:22 <yiati> vs bin
Nov 30 17:26:35 <adq> yep yiati, i do it manually, i just watch from time to time: http://services.gradle.org/distributions/
Nov 30 17:27:05 <adq> as an advice, you should also bookmark and watch from time to time: https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/gradle/ but this time for the android gradle plugin
Nov 30 17:27:25 <adq> not sure what you meant with vs bin
Nov 30 17:27:37 <yiati> Cool, yeah I watch the bintray for android tools, didn't know about that gradle distro link though thanks
Nov 30 17:27:37 <adq> but those are 2 different things, gradle itself and the android gradle plugin
Nov 30 17:27:52 <adq> it's so ambiguous
Nov 30 17:27:55 <yiati> adq: -bin vs -all vs -src
Nov 30 17:27:58 <yiati> yeah
Nov 30 17:27:59 <adq> k
Nov 30 17:28:09 <yiati> I always have to explain to my team what the difference is
Nov 30 17:28:16 <adq> :')
Nov 30 17:28:18 <fleshcorpse> can someone provide open android sms spoofer, keep it simple too? like one .java and one .xml
Nov 30 17:28:25 <adq> no
Nov 30 17:29:31 <fleshcorpse> guess ill just browse through codecanyon then -.-
Nov 30 17:34:22 <yiati> adq: So what benefites does downloading -all give you vs -bin? I know that it also includes source, but tmk -bin at least also downloads the javadoc.jars so that you can click into and browse the API of the gradle source
Nov 30 17:35:10 <adq> i really never bothered tbh
Nov 30 17:36:00 <adq> it looks like all = bin + src
Nov 30 17:36:33 <yiati> yeah
Nov 30 17:36:38 * yiati shrugs
Nov 30 17:41:14 <skin1980> I definitely need help guys, in this page http://www.crimnet.dcpc.interno.gov.it/servpub/ver2/SCAR/cerca_targhe.asp if i add my plate it says if the plate is stolen or not...
Nov 30 17:41:34 <skin1980> but i cannot make the get request working
Nov 30 17:48:13 <yiati> skin1980: What is going wrong
Nov 30 18:10:11 <Syzygy> Is there a point to disconnect GoogleApiClient?
Nov 30 18:26:36 <Syzygy> Will it work if I use Retrofit2 with GSON to feed data into an incomplete model? (e.g. a model that only contains a name when the json I'm receiving contains name and id)
Nov 30 18:28:13 <s73v3r> you’re saying that your model class doesn’t have all the fields that your JSON returns?
Nov 30 18:28:16 <s73v3r> yeah, that should work
Nov 30 18:48:08 <sparr>  Which, if any, android broadcast intent is triggered when an app sends an SMS and/or saves that sent SMS to the system SMS database? If none, how else can I trigger an action in my app when that happens?
Nov 30 18:49:49 <yiati> sparr: https://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-common.html#Messaging
Nov 30 18:50:36 <sparr> yiati: that's how to send a message, not how to get notified when another app sends a message. unless I'm overlooking something?
Nov 30 18:51:00 <s73v3r> i don’t believe you can be
Nov 30 18:51:11 <s73v3r> it’d be a broadcastreceiter, if you can
Nov 30 18:51:20 <s73v3r> BroadcastReceiver, I mean
Nov 30 18:51:29 <sparr> yeah, I've looked at the broadcastreceiver intents. there's one for a received SMS, but not for sent
Nov 30 18:51:41 <sparr> IFTTT can trigger on sent SMSes, but it's not open source so I can't see how they did it :/
Nov 30 18:52:03 <s73v3r> send an email and ask?
Nov 30 18:52:11 <s73v3r> the worst they can do is say no
Nov 30 18:52:15 <yiati> sparr: If that's how apps trigger intents for sms, then those are the type of intents you can subscribe to
Nov 30 18:52:32 <yiati> Which is why that link is useful
Nov 30 18:52:52 <s73v3r> but you only will have that intent delivered if you’re the one sending the sms
Nov 30 18:53:12 <yiati> Nope
Nov 30 18:53:18 <sparr> I think s73v3r is right
Nov 30 18:53:36 <s73v3r> I’m 90% sure you’re not going to get the SendSMS intent if you’re not the app selected to send sms messages
Nov 30 18:53:42 <sparr> however, that's moot. that intent is to tell an SMS app that you want it to send a message. the sms app receives it from your app, then sends it.
Nov 30 18:53:43 <yiati> hmm
Nov 30 18:53:53 <s73v3r> If you’ve got some documentation to prove me wrong, I’d love to see it
Nov 30 18:53:55 <yiati> Well I guess it depends on how the sms client sends the intent
Nov 30 18:54:01 <sparr> whether one or five apps get that intent, I need to know when the sms app does the actual sending
Nov 30 18:54:10 <yiati> Yes it's possible for the intent to be limited to the sms client
Nov 30 18:55:03 <yiati> s73v3r: Ah yeah "if your not the app selected to send sms messages"
Nov 30 18:55:12 <yiati> yeah that's probably the answer you are looking for sparr
Nov 30 18:55:22 <yiati> you need to become the app selected to send sms messages
Nov 30 18:55:26 <sparr> if I'm writing an app that is NOT an sms app, but wants to get an sms sent, then I use that intent to tell a/the sms app to send an sms on my behalf
Nov 30 18:55:29 <s73v3r> sparr: does the IFTTT app set itself up as the one selected to send SMS?
Nov 30 18:55:34 <sparr> s73v3r: no
Nov 30 18:55:50 <s73v3r> do they have permission to read the SMS database?
Nov 30 18:55:51 <yiati> hmm touché
Nov 30 18:56:32 <orbyt_> What is the best way to format stack traces for StackOverflow? They're a pain when trying to copy
Nov 30 18:56:42 <sparr> s73v3r: yes, "read your text messages (SMS or MMS)
Nov 30 18:56:43 <s73v3r> sparr: look into the SMS database. I believe it’s a contentprovider
Nov 30 18:56:53 <s73v3r> that might allow you to be notified when it’s changed
Nov 30 18:58:42 <yiati> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7089313/android-listen-for-incoming-sms-messages
Nov 30 18:58:43 <s73v3r> might be a bit out of date, but the idea is the same: http://mylifewithandroid.blogspot.com/2008/03/observing-content.html
Nov 30 18:59:23 <sparr> yiati: incoming is easy. there's a broadcastreceiver intent for that
Nov 30 18:59:53 <s73v3r> yeah, I think you’re gonna have to observe the contentprovider for sms
Nov 30 19:00:11 <yiati> I wonder if IFTTT does anything beyond incoming
Nov 30 19:00:14 <sparr> s73v3r: the base contentprovider doesn't seem to have any sort of notification system. if the sms database content provider added that, where would I find documentation on it?
Nov 30 19:00:19 <sparr> yiati: it does
Nov 30 19:00:33 <sparr> https://ifttt.com/channels/android_messages/triggers/1143127988-any-new-sms-sent
Nov 30 19:00:37 <s73v3r> i’m pretty sure there’s a notify changed
Nov 30 19:01:12 <s73v3r> if not, you could poll the database
Nov 30 19:01:23 <s73v3r> i guess it depends on how soon after being sent you need to know
Nov 30 19:05:35 <orbyt_> Anyone familiar with rx mind checking this out: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40879126/onerrornotimplementedexception-somehow-still-being-called-with-included-error-ha
Nov 30 19:08:35 <Syzygy> s73v3r, thanks for your answer earlier.
Nov 30 19:19:01 <sparr> polling seems so very antithetical to good mobile app design :(
Nov 30 19:19:45 <sparr> I normally don't do this, but someone downvoted it so it's gonna get no attention otherwise...

Nov 30 19:36:54 <matt_j> Is there a difference between Firebase App Indexing (introduced in 10.0.1) and the regular app indexing API?
Nov 30 19:37:19 <sirish> Hi, can you not delete an android develoepr account? Can I not delete an app that has been published as alpha test?
Nov 30 19:45:56 <totokaka> I have three textViews in a horizontal LinearLayout.  How can I ensure that the text in the middle text view appears as close to the middle of the LinearLayout as possible, regardless of the width of the other TextViews?
Nov 30 19:47:56 <s73v3r> you can align the textview to the center of it’s parent
Nov 30 19:48:10 <s73v3r> although you might be better off using a RelativeLayout for that
Nov 30 19:48:21 <totokaka> How?
Nov 30 19:48:31 <s73v3r> using alignParentCenter
Nov 30 19:48:57 <Ashiren> linearlayout and gravity/layoutGravity could suffice
Nov 30 19:49:23 <Dagmar> Well, if you assign weights to them
Nov 30 19:49:43 <totokaka> No, because I don't know the sizes of the views on the side
Nov 30 19:49:59 <s73v3r> do you know the size of the view in the center?
Nov 30 19:50:09 <totokaka> Well, it simply contains a dash
Nov 30 19:50:11 <Dagmar> RelativeLayout is probably your best best in this case
Nov 30 19:51:17 <totokaka> Just around the middle text view, or instead of the linearlayout? I've never used RelativeLayout before.
Nov 30 19:51:27 <s73v3r> instead of the LinearLayout
Nov 30 19:57:09 <totokaka> Thanks, the RelativeLayout was just what I needed

Nov 30 20:34:18 <dsardari> Anyone have any experience with implementing a custom content provider to pipe content for an external media player? From what I've read it doesn't seem to work since most media players expect to seek the content.
Nov 30 20:38:39 <loredan13> Hello! I am not sure why, but my VideoView is collapsed to 0 height, even though it has wrap_content in XML
Nov 30 20:38:52 <loredan13> Does anybody know what is wrong?
Nov 30 20:42:15 <Melatonina> loredan13: no content?
Nov 30 20:43:06 <loredan13> Melatonina: yes, I am doing setVideoPath(), but it doesn't semm to do anything to the view
Nov 30 20:43:15 <loredan13> *seem
Nov 30 20:43:58 <loredan13> Can it be because I am doing all this before adding the view to activity?
Nov 30 20:45:17 <Melatonina> loredan13: I used VideoView only once because it sucks so I don't remember how I use it. But I can imagine that the view could no be aware of the size of the video until it's played anyway. It doesn't make much sense to use wrap_content
Nov 30 20:46:32 <loredan13> Melatonina: ah, right, I did something about that...
Nov 30 20:47:01 <loredan13> Melatonina: did you happen to use something else in place of VideoView?
Nov 30 20:47:57 <Melatonina> loredan13: people use exoplayer. I ended up writing my own player because I had special needs
Nov 30 20:48:15 <Melatonina> loredan13: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/exoplayer.html

Nov 30 22:16:55 <pila> hey whats the most easy way to have a button with no background, an icon and text below it? and i want it all to be clickable...
Nov 30 22:18:04 <pila> <Button
Nov 30 22:18:04 <pila>     android:id="@+id/test"
Nov 30 22:18:05 <pila>     android:padding="16dp"
Nov 30 22:18:06 <pila>     android:text="test"
Nov 30 22:18:07 <pila>     android:drawableTop="@drawable/clock"
Nov 30 22:18:07 <pila>     android:drawablePadding="10dp"
Nov 30 22:18:09 <pila>     android:textSize="16sp"

Nov 30 22:18:11 <pila>     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
Nov 30 22:18:12 <pila>     android:layout_weight=".5"
Nov 30 22:18:13 <pila>     android:layout_width="0dip"
Nov 30 22:18:13 <pila>     /> creates a button like i want, in an empty layout it looks nice and works, but when there are other elements it gets really big
Nov 30 22:18:18 <pila> oops soory, should be in 1 line :(
Nov 30 22:20:16 <adq> it gets really big because you are using weight
Nov 30 22:20:43 <adq> remove android:layout_weight=".5" and change   android:layout_width="0dip" to   android:layout_width="wrap_content"
Nov 30 22:21:45 <adq> and while at it, read about material design for button https://material.google.com/components/buttons.html -- i let you search as an exercise how to theme/style them
Nov 30 22:23:50 <pila> i think i found the problem, i use different size images (i converted svg to xml drawable)
Nov 30 22:27:29 <pila> mhhh...
Nov 30 22:34:13 <missingno> is there such thing as an borderless ImageButton
Nov 30 22:34:17 <missingno> or do I have to make one
Nov 30 22:34:39 <missingno> I like, want an ImageButton with a mostly transparent icon that also has the selectableItemBackgroundBorderless effect
Nov 30 22:37:53 <missingno> also why does pressing ctrl-shift-n in linux always result in the dialog disappearing the first time
Nov 30 22:46:06 <g00s> http://news.dartlang.org/2016/11/dart-strong-mode-and-ahead-of-time_30.html
Nov 30 23:09:36 <Melatonina> g00s: how many hours per day do you spend reading mobile development news?
Nov 30 23:11:56 <missingno> I guess I can just use src and background together
Nov 30 23:12:36 <Syzygy> ... somehow I deleted my src folder ... I mean I'm using git but my last commit was like 6 hours ago
Nov 30 23:13:12 <missingno> Local History
Nov 30 23:14:07 <Melatonina> Syzygy: do you work on Linux?
Nov 30 23:14:33 <Syzygy> nope, but i managed to restore it with ctrl + z
Nov 30 23:14:48 <Syzygy> in the windows file browser
Nov 30 23:14:53 <Syzygy> so nothing lost... but close call
Nov 30 23:18:04 <Melatonina> I was hoping you were working on a OS that supported the concept of trashcan and undo on filesystem operations
Nov 30 23:18:38 <TacticalJoke> Syzygy: You gotta commit all the time.
Nov 30 23:18:49 <TacticalJoke> I commit the tiniest change, amend, amend, amend, publish.
Nov 30 23:18:58 <Syzygy> Melatonina, apparently I do :D
Nov 30 23:18:58 <TacticalJoke> Sometimes I amend for months before publishing.
Nov 30 23:19:10 <TacticalJoke> If you're working with uncommitted changes, you're taking a risk.
Nov 30 23:19:22 <Syzygy> TacticalJoke, I know I should... I'll need to get better with that.
Nov 30 23:19:40 <Syzygy> I just staged them at least
Nov 30 23:21:18 <pmercado> hello, it's me again, have this issue in last Android Studio when changing a LinearLayout to a ConstraintLayout:  Rendering Problems The following classes could not be found: - ConstraintLayout (Change to android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout, Fix Build Path, Edit XML)
Nov 30 23:21:53 <s73v3r> did you add the ConstraintLayout dependency
Nov 30 23:21:57 <pmercado> I mean..... changing directly into xml
Nov 30 23:22:02 <pmercado> yes
Nov 30 23:22:11 <s73v3r> no, i mean in gradle
Nov 30 23:22:11 <pmercado> all is installed
Nov 30 23:22:16 <pmercado> uhm
Nov 30 23:22:31 <s73v3r> https://segunfamisa.com/posts/constraint-layout-in-android
Nov 30 23:22:41 <pmercado> dependencies: compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-beta4'
Nov 30 23:22:44 <s73v3r> the version they list is completely out of date, but that’s what you’re gonna need to do
Nov 30 23:22:55 <s73v3r> then try rebuilding
Nov 30 23:23:47 <pmercado> but the problem is only inside Android Studio, is not showing correctly
Nov 30 23:24:07 <s73v3r> oh. then that’s probably the extremely shitty layout preview window
Nov 30 23:25:05 <pmercado> well ok
Nov 30 23:25:31 <g00s> Melatonina 5-10 min
Nov 30 23:25:43 <pmercado> right click in "change ConstraintLayout into ConstraintLayout", appear a window, click "ok" and now.... is.... ok..
Nov 30 23:25:56 <pmercado> s73v3r: :) thank you
Nov 30 23:30:36 <g00s> https://adtmag.com/articles/2016/11/30/google-low-code-tool.aspx
Nov 30 23:30:47 <g00s> never heard of it, maybe i'm late to the party
Nov 30 23:35:55 <pmercado> why in Android Studio, constraintLayout change layout sizes?
Nov 30 23:36:15 <s73v3r> ?
Nov 30 23:37:28 <pmercado> some ViewGroups (LinearLayout, RecyclerView, etc..) I have them with android:layout_height="match_parent", but after doing some changes visually using IDE they appears as android:layout_height="0dp"
Nov 30 23:37:56 <treelzebub> hey all-- what looks like a pathological multidex issue has eaten all of my work day, and i was hoping someone else has solved this issue... i get a ClassNotFoundException thrown from one of my ContentProviders, which results in an instacrash *on Lollipop devices only* (my minSdk is 21)
Nov 30 23:38:01 <treelzebub> i'm seriously starting to lose my mind :\
Nov 30 23:38:16 <s73v3r> pmercado: probably because the ViewGroup’s size is going to be determined by the constraints
Nov 30 23:38:19 <treelzebub> using Studio and gradle-plugin 2.2.2
Nov 30 23:38:52 <treelzebub> i have also tried building an APK using Studio 2.1 and gradle plugin 2.11... same result.
Nov 30 23:42:41 <orbyt_> treelzebub Are you using pro guard? Perhaps a class is being obfuscated incorrectly.
Nov 30 23:43:23 <treelzebub> i am, but i built an APK using -dontobfuscate so i figured that would have fixed it if that were the issue :\
Nov 30 23:44:04 <s73v3r> it still might be removing the class if it can’t detect an actual hard link to it
Nov 30 23:48:02 <missingno> why don't ViewHolders take layout res ids as an argument
Nov 30 23:48:18 <missingno> I don't see where it is more flexible to make view inflation a separate step
Nov 30 23:48:26 <s73v3r> because they take already inflated views
Nov 30 23:48:41 <missingno> yes, but I usually inflate that view the line before
Nov 30 23:48:44 <missingno> do people do otherwise?
Nov 30 23:49:01 <TacticalJoke> I don't use inflation in RecyclerView/ListView/Spinner/etc.
Nov 30 23:49:24 <missingno> true
Nov 30 23:49:31 <missingno> it could just have a second constructor
Nov 30 23:50:37 <s73v3r> if you want to, go right ahead
Nov 30 23:50:48 <pmercado> s73v3r: so you say that is not important the current xml value, it will always be recalculated any time, even when device change orientation
Nov 30 23:50:52 <TacticalJoke> s73v3r: I doubt he has commit access to the support library.
Nov 30 23:50:54 <missingno> I will
Nov 30 23:51:00 <missingno> wish they did it to begin with tho
Nov 30 23:51:06 <s73v3r> but now the viewholder is responsible for determining if it has a view, and then inflating it
Nov 30 23:51:18 <s73v3r> TacticalJoke: they can subclass ViewHolder
Nov 30 23:51:52 <s73v3r> what do you expect to gain from doing that, though? How would it make your code more flexible, maintainable, or performant?
Nov 30 23:52:13 <TacticalJoke> s73v3r: I know, but I think his point (that RecyclerView.Holder itself should have this functionality) might be valid.
Nov 30 23:52:30 <missingno> would be less lines for the exact same performance
Nov 30 23:52:31 <TacticalJoke> The framework is hit-or-miss regarding resource IDs in such cases.
Nov 30 23:52:48 <s73v3r> missingno: i disagree
Nov 30 23:52:49 <TacticalJoke> s/in such cases/in general/
Nov 30 23:52:57 <s73v3r> it is
Nov 30 23:54:43 <s73v3r> missingno: you are going to have to pass a context in to your viewholder in order to do inflation there
Nov 30 23:56:19 <missingno> hmm
Nov 30 23:57:11 <missingno> that drizzles on my parade but does not quite rain on it
Dec 01 00:01:47 <treelzebub> it was preDex. turned it off and everything works. holy crap that ate 6 hours of work.
Dec 01 00:01:56 <TacticalJoke> Actually, on second thoughts, I don't think it'd be a good idea.  I'd forgotten about ViewHolder not having a Context in the first place.
Dec 01 00:02:16 <TacticalJoke> The fact that you'd have to pass a Context makes it feel clumsy.
Dec 01 00:02:31 <TacticalJoke> Personally, the thing I dislike is that RecyclerView forces this ViewHolder idea on you at all.
Dec 01 00:02:53 <TacticalJoke> I just use a View or a ViewGroup.  ViewHolder is redundant.
Dec 01 00:02:58 <s73v3r> Isn’t that the main point of it, though?
Dec 01 00:03:09 <s73v3r> that it forces you to recycle your views?
Dec 01 00:03:14 <TacticalJoke> The main point of ViewHolder is to avoid repeated findViewById calls.
Dec 01 00:03:18 <TacticalJoke> But you can do that with ViewGroup.
Dec 01 00:04:00 <s73v3r> yeah, but ViewHolder is the pattern they came up with during the ListView days. It kinda makes sense that they’d want to stick with something people were familiar with
Dec 01 00:04:08 <TacticalJoke> It's a bad pattern, though.
Dec 01 00:04:17 <s73v3r> otherwise your cells would have to be ViewGroups, instead of Views
Dec 01 00:04:20 <TacticalJoke> People should never have used ViewHolder in the ListView days.
Dec 01 00:04:34 <s73v3r> what should they have done?
Dec 01 00:04:36 <TacticalJoke> They can be just Views.
Dec 01 00:04:39 <missingno> sweet something to argue with people in phone interviews over
Dec 01 00:04:44 <s73v3r> a View is not a ViewGroup
Dec 01 00:04:55 <missingno> s73v3r: viewgroup should already cut down the search space
Dec 01 00:05:00 <TacticalJoke> s73v3r: I mean that you don't have to use a ViewGroup.  You can use a View.
Dec 01 00:05:02 <missingno> unless it is a really big viewgroup
Dec 01 00:05:11 <TacticalJoke> ViewHolder has always been a poor man's ViewGroup.
Dec 01 00:05:26 <TacticalJoke> ViewGroup *already* avoids repeated findViewById calls (e.g., in onFinishInflate).
Dec 01 00:05:43 <missingno> oh you mean extending viewgroup
Dec 01 00:05:49 <TacticalJoke> If you're using findViewById, you already are using ViewGroup.  It's pointless having ViewHolder.
Dec 01 00:05:52 <missingno> and having member vars with the viewgroup's children
Dec 01 00:06:38 <TacticalJoke> missingno: Yeah.
Dec 01 00:11:40 <g00s> this still seems like some bizarro hack to me https://adtmag.com/blogs/dev-watch/2016/11/app-streaming.aspx
Dec 01 00:12:11 <g00s> they wouldn't have to stream anything if they just got their web apis solidified :D
Dec 01 00:13:01 <g00s> gordon_ so does scala 2.12 work with android ?
Dec 01 00:48:08 <Syzygy> Anyone experienced with the foursquare api? I'm trying to do a search request and noticed that flowershop, food & drink shop and hardware store all have the same category id (https://developer.foursquare.com/categorytree). And if I use that ID, I don't get a result for those venue types. Any idea what's wrong and how I could get a result?
Dec 01 00:54:17 <g00s> foursquare still exists ?
Dec 01 00:54:42 <Syzygy> yeah... I would rather use google places as well...
Dec 01 01:18:39 <xrandr> Hello. I am using eclipse for android. I have a apk that I decompiled. I'm trying to open it in eclipse, and I can see all my files. When I try to run the application, it doesn't show a project name, nor any configuration i can use to run it.
Dec 01 01:18:43 <xrandr> How can I fix this?
Dec 01 01:21:17 <treelzebub> first: any particular reason you are still using Eclipse?
Dec 01 01:23:09 <g00s> second: this chan is for app dev, not reversing
Dec 01 01:26:49 <xrandr> treelzebub, cause i cannot get it to import into android studio properly
Dec 01 01:27:02 <xrandr> yet eclipse seems to be ok with it
Dec 01 01:27:23 <treelzebub> probably for the same reason your config is messed up. but, to g00s's point, this is not the place for reverse engineering help. sorry.
Dec 01 01:28:42 <xrandr> where can I get help for that? It is my project, I lost the files, but had an APK file of it
Dec 01 01:54:15 <TacticalJoke> Gawd dayum, Android themes are complex.
Dec 01 01:56:08 <TacticalJoke> I have this really hard-to-understand bug in my app that reproduces about one in a thousand times.  And it relates to dynamically resolving some theme attribute (which, itself, involves jumping through several hoops).
Dec 01 01:56:26 <TacticalJoke> Trying to pin this down is like trying to beat Magnus Carlsen in chess.
Dec 01 02:01:37 <g00s> TacticalJoke i thought, if i ever wrote a book, it would be something like 'A Visual Guide to Android Themes / Material" :)
Dec 01 02:05:31 <pmercado> Hello, I have this issue: http://paste.opensuse.org/76909674 , AdapterViewFlipper capture fing gesture using GestureDetector, want I want to do now is capture a single tap in its parent (FrameLayout). When I add a FrameLayout.setOnTouchListener doesn't fire, what I'm doing wrong ?
Dec 01 02:07:00 <TacticalJoke> pmercado: Not sure without more detail, but if a child consumes a gesture then the parent won't get it.
Dec 01 02:07:15 <TacticalJoke> The parent can, however, intercept the touch gesture (from onInterceptTouchEvent).
Dec 01 02:07:33 <TacticalJoke> https://developer.android.com/training/gestures/viewgroup.html
Dec 01 02:09:48 <pmercado> ok let me see, because GestureDetector seems always capture the press gesture, but when returning false (to say "not consumed") in onSingleTapConfirmed from GestureDetector it won't pass "tap" to parents
Dec 01 02:15:46 <TacticalJoke> pmercado: If you return `false` in onTouchEvent, it should bubble up to the parent ViewGroup.
Dec 01 02:16:27 <pmercado> yes, but that doesn't happen
Dec 01 02:17:06 <TacticalJoke> Is the AdapterViewFlipper consuming it?
Dec 01 02:17:12 <eghdk> I dropped in a new dependency into my app and used apk analyzer to see that's it's dropping in two .so files. With gradle... is there a way to remove those .so files by name?
Dec 01 02:17:41 <pmercado> TacticalJoke: wait me....
Dec 01 02:21:33 <pmercado> currently AdapterViewFlipper->GestureDetector.onSingleTapConfirmed() { return false;} debugger hit this line, but after that doesn't go to the break point inside FrameLayout.setOnTouchListener()
Dec 01 02:22:44 <TacticalJoke> pmercado: No, I mean in onTouchEvent.
Dec 01 02:22:46 <TacticalJoke> Return false there.
Dec 01 02:22:55 <TacticalJoke> Don't even let the GestureDetector do its thing.
Dec 01 02:25:31 <pmercado> AdapterViewFlipper.setOnTouchListener( new View.OnTouchListener() {             @Override             public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {                 return mVistaPreviaGestureDetector.onTouchEvent( event );          }         } );
Dec 01 02:27:16 <pmercado> wait... let me read yout link and will try to resolve this :)
Dec 01 02:27:20 <TacticalJoke> You might have to override View.onTouchEvent and return `false` there.
Dec 01 02:27:21 <pmercado> thanks for your time TacticalJoke
Dec 01 02:27:33 <TacticalJoke> However, why do you want to do all this?  There may be a better way.
Dec 01 02:27:53 <pmercado> to show/hide other layouts
Dec 01 02:28:51 <TacticalJoke> You can replace layouts without all this stuff.
