Sync Room Database and Spreadsheet with Sheets API (Kotlin)
There seem to be no recent guides on that:
I have an Android App with a Room db and a private spreadsheet in the google cloud. I already made a project in the google developers console, activated the Sheets API and am able to sign in to my Google account in my App. Now I want to sync a table of the Room db with this spreadsheet.
What do I have to do in Kotlin to tell where the spreadsheet is and to get access to it?...

I received a message stating that my Google Play account would be suspended due to its association with another suspended account
The day before, I received a message stating that my Google Play account would be terminated due to its association with another terminated account.
I have about five Google Play accounts and none of them are terminated, but they contain applications that have been suspended for years (no application has been suspended in two years)..
I contacted a Google employee and he asked me for some information, such as my bank account and identity, but I don’t know what will happen next ... My accoun...

Windows 11 Or Linux or QEMU (KVM on Android: Google Pixel, or Nothing Phone?)
Hello all,
I am thinking of buying a Pixel 6 or 7 because I want to run Windows on Android.
I am sorry if someone has already answered these questions:
1. How to enable KVM on Pixel? (If I need to root that's fine; I have rooted a Pixel before, but it was a 3A, and seeing how my next Pixel device will be a bit more expensive, I really don't want to break anything)
2. Does Nothing phone Support KVM? If so, how to enable Linux/Windows Virtual Machines on it?
I have been reading across the Inte...

XML or Jetpack Compose for an internal app in my library?
Hello all, I am currently working on a new feature in my library, basically it is an application that shows the history of the performed events in my library (a centralized analytics library) and I wonder if it's the right decision to make it using Jetpack Compose or should I stick with the old way (XML).
Both methods have their pros and cons, but my main concern with using Jetpack Compose is its interoperability with older apps. ...

Learnt side-effects in jetpack practically by mistake,

Best language to make an app with 3D models in it
Hello everyone. I'm getting a bit overwhelmed these days trying to figure out how to solve my problem. I want to create an app that serves as a productivity application. Therefore, it needs to have a good UI, (so I'm excluding Unity due to its UI limitations), AND the ability to incorporate 3D models. Now, I could write the code natively using Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android. However, I've learned that SceneKit, the framework used in Swift for 3D models, has not enough community support, an...

Is there any way to auto add/force developers to add migration for room database.
I am developing an application for client. Their requirement was that the app shouldn't crash if in future any developer changed schema. They also want to retain data from some tables always.

Your advertising ID declaration in Play Console says that your app uses advertising ID. A manifest file in one of your active artifacts doesn't include the com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID permission.
I'm adding a app bundle that implements google ad mob into my project. I've already added the necessary additions to the manifest and updated the app content to include analytics. I'm already in production and the previous versions of my app don't include ads.

Please note that I am not seeking help in finding a solution but I want to simply understand why capturing the screen with two different methods (but with same compression and quality) gives different OCR results.

1. By running /system/bin/screencap -p $path
2. With the MediaProjection API.

Re-implementation of Android app - use same or different id?
Our v1 app has been re-implemented (v2) with modern architecture and libs, etc, but with mostly the same features as v1, with some technical improvements/bugs solved. We would like to release it in Play as a new app (different id), so users can choose between the old (stable) and the new one (which may eventually break). Also, the backend for v1 is different from v2.
The app is a very niche business app and those who use it depend on the app for their daily workflow, so it would be risky to hav...
