android-4.4-kitkat

When I try my app with Android KitKat I have an error in PreferenceActivity. Subclasses of PreferenceActivity must override isValidFragment(String) to verify that the Fragment class is valid! com.crbin1.labeltodo.ActivityPreference has not checked if fragment com.crbin1.labeltodo.StockPreferenceFragment is valid In documentation I find the following explanation protected boolean isValidFragment (String fragmentName) Added in API level 19 Subclasses should override this method and verify that the given fragment is a valid type to be attached to this activity. The default implementation returns

This question already has an answer here: Android emulator not rotating to landscape 11 answers I've updated my sdk to the latest version (android 4.4) and I started the emulator, but now it seems not possible to rotate the screen with CTRL+F11, the screen change but all the applications don't change. I don't know if it's a related issue but I can see that even if I created a new emulator with menù hw button, now all the applications have the overflow button. These appear to be bugs in the Android 4.4 emulator. You may wish to track the issues that I filed regarding the orientation change bug

Background Android got new API on Kitkat and Lollipop, to video capture the screen. You can do it either via the ADB tool, or via code (starting from Lollipop). Ever since the new API was out, many apps came that use this feature, allowing to record the screen, and Microsoft even made its own Google-Now-On-tap competitor app. Using ADB, you can use: adb shell screenrecord /sdcard/video.mp4 You can even do it from within Android Studio itself. The problem I can't find any tutorial or explanation about how to do it using the API, meaning in code. What I've found The only place I've found is the

Iam having this strange issue in which the retrofit keeps throwing me "SSL handshake aborted: ssl=0x618d9c18: I/O error during system call, Connection reset by peer" in kitkat, whereas the same code working fine in lollipop devices. Iam using an OkHttpClient client like the following public OkHttpClient getUnsafeOkHttpClient() { try { final TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] { new X509TrustManager() { @Override public void checkClientTrusted( java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] chain, String authType) { } @Override public void checkServerTrusted( java.security.cert

I made an android sms app in which I am sending and receiving sms as android messaging app does so. Now I have set my target to 4.4 (Android KitKat version) but Android KitKat has new "Default Messaging" app settings that user can select one app at a time for messaging. I followed the steps from this site to select option for my sms app as default app but in the settings my app never showed up in the popup of selecting default messaging app. Below is my java code I have used from the guid if( androidOS.contains("4.4") ){ if (! Telephony.Sms.getDefaultSmsPackage(this).equals(myPackageName) ) {

Unlike previous versions, in 4.4, swiping app out of recent tasks permanently kills app along with its service(like force-stop) even though it's running background services. It shows 0 processes 1 service but service also doesn't work. Ideally it shouldn't kill background service, and it doesn't in versions prior to 4.3. Any idea why is it happening in 4.4? Got it. Its a bug in 4.4. I tried this and it worked perfectly fine(its a dirty workout though). Just override this method -: public void onTaskRemoved(Intent rootIntent) { Log.e("FLAGX : ", ServiceInfo.FLAG_STOP_WITH_TASK + ""); Intent
