targetSdk 36 and SDK upgrade assistant
I'm on targetSdk 35, Android Studio is warning me, "Not targeting the latest versions of Android; compatibility modes apply. Consider testing and updating this version." I see that 36 is available. If I manually change to 36 I get an 'error/warning' about doing so, and to use the SDK upgrade assistant.
The Android SDK Upgrade Assistant only goes to version 35 though. It does not look like 36 is active or supported yet.
Anyone else seen this? ...

Ajuda para testar aplicativo de organização financeira
Fala pessoal, tudo certo?
Eu desenvolvi um app de organização financeira porque tava cansado de usar planilha no celular pra anotar os gastos. Queria algo mais simples, direto e rápido.
Criei esse app pra facilitar minha vida e agora tô tentando liberar ele na Play Store.
Mas pra isso, preciso de pelo menos 12 pessoas usando o app durante 14 dias.
Só que como é um teste fechado, o Google só libera se eu cadastrar os e-mails manualmente.
Então, se puder dar essa força, só preciso do e-mail da ...

Custom Firmware to save phone stuck in Bootloop?
So, is there a way to make a "custom firmware" (hope that's what I mean) to save a Galaxy Z Fold4 that's stuck in bootloop? I guess the problem is that the phone's memory is so full that it can't do anything. After 3 hours of chatting with chatGPT (forgive me devs) the AI suggested to make a custom firmware (editing boot.img/init.rc) to make it wipe folders such as /data/com.whatsapp etc...

5 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Android Development (Beginner-Friendly)
Hey devs
I’ve been learning Android development for a while now and wanted to share some hard-earned lessons that would’ve saved me a ton of time (and confusion) as a beginner. Hopefully this helps someone just starting out:
1. Start with Kotlin – Java still works, but Kotlin is cleaner, modern, and better supported for new projects. Don't worry, it's beginner-friendly!
2. Jetpack Compose is the future – XML still dominates tutorials, but Jetpack Compose is where Google’s headed. Lear...

Anyone built Android demos using Py-Feat + openSMILE?
Trying to prototype a face+voice demo: Py-Feat for AU/emotion, openSMILE for voice pitch/timbre—slap them together in an Android app. But I hit library bloat and latency issues. Anyone managed to squeeze this stack into a performant APK or have tips for modularizing audio+vision pipelines?...

Weird performance hit affecting only an app published on Play
I have an app. It uses a native component written in Rust that processes audio input stream (Oboe/AAudio) in real time. It works fine even on older devices which can keep up with the stream. But when I released this app on Play and installed from there, suddenly, the performance is degraded and the audio processor can't keep up, gaining a slowly increasing lag.
I'm absolutely sure this is the same binary. I created an appbundle in release mode, submitted it to Play Console, published a new vers...

Google is now requiring API 35 and I am not able to build with it
My app is released on Google Play, using API 34. Has anyone been able to build using API 35? I am using Unreal 5.4 and would rather not move the game to 5.5 or 5.6. According to the Epic documentation API 35 isn’t supported by them anyway? Are all Unreal apps unable to be on Google Play soon?

A modern (and more useful) UiAutomatorViewer
Hi all, I've been developing a UiAutomatorViewer-type desktop application with Kotlin and Compose Multiplatform and I thought I should share it here, in case someone still uses Android layout inspectors such as UiAutomatorViewer, Legacy Layout Inspector and Yet Another Layout Inspector (YALI). The reason why I built it is because at work we needed an inspector with multi-display support that works reliably with Jetpack Compose UIs and does not require Java 8 (like UAV). It also has a dump-...

Any good logcat file viewer app?
Hi people, basically what the title says.
I found out that there used to be an app - http://lograbbit.com/ but this is no longer present on app store.
My current setup is VSCode + logcat colouriser - which is pretty bad tbh. I need to grep and create a seperate file if I want to focus on logs from specific file.
Do you know any cools apps like LogRabbit? Can I get LogRabbit itself somehow? What is your log viewing setup?

Wifi on/off through lockscreen
Not just Wifi, also talking about bluetooth, gps, nfc and sensors such as these should be made to turn on/off through lockscreen, without having to unlock the phone.
Now some manufacturers like Xiaomi have their UI do this without unlocking, but the majority don't.

Struggling with app actions implemention and the documentation seems outdated
I'm hoping someone can spot what I'm missing here, because I feel like I'm chasing a ghost.
My goal is simple: I want a user to be able to say, "Hey Google, play channelName on MyAwesomeApp", and have my app open and receive "channelName" as a parameter.
The basic invocation "Hey Google, open MyAwesomeApp" works perfectly. The app opens.
The problem is with the parameter. I've been trying to get a parameterized Built-in Intent like WATCHCONTENT or PLAYMEDIA to work for days, and it's been a...

Best practices to track where mobile app users come from (without asking them)?
I’ve recently launched a new mobile app and have seen a few hundred signups in the past 2 weeks, which is great but honestly, this growth was unexpected and now I’m struggling to understand what’s actually driving that traffic.
I’d really like to figure out which channels (Reddit, social, ASO, etc.) are bringing users in but without asking users directly during onboarding (I don't like to answer that question myself when I register for a new app).
