android-8.0-oreo

I'm trying to use Arabic and English in my app. Its working fine on devices running on nougat or below. But it's not working on oreo devices. Is there some new code requirement in API 26? I am using the Code below. public void changeLanguage(Context context, String language) { Locale locale = new Locale(language); Locale.setDefault(locale); Configuration config = context.getResources().getConfiguration(); config.setLocale(locale); context.createConfigurationContext(config); context.getResources().updateConfiguration(config, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics()); } and I'm passing "en"

I have a service that schedules a pendingintent which starts my notification. However, since Android O I am getting this error. I did some research, and stumbled upon context.registerReceiver , but that does not seem to fix the problem. Error: W/BroadcastQueue: Background execution not allowed: receiving Intent { act=android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED dat=package:my.great.package flg=0x4000010 (has extras) } to com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/com.google.android.apps.gsa.googlequicksearchbox.GelStubAppWatcher ``` My pendingintent: Intent myNotification = new Intent("services

I'm developing an app that need to support multiple languages and if the language is RTL I have to apply a custom font. For the requirement I have created my Class that extends Application . Everything was perfect till I got Oreo version device (Before I have Marshmellow enabled device). In Oreo if we want to change the language we have to create a custom ContextWrapper class, here problem come in. To use Calligraphy we need to Override the attachBaseContext method. And To change language we need to Override the attachBaseContext too I tried to call super.attachBaseContext in the Overrided

While converting an app to be ready for Android Oreo, I read the docs on JobIntentService over here . In there I find (important part emphasised): When running as a pre-O service, the normal service execution semantics apply: [...] When running as a Job, the typical JobService execution time limit will apply, after which the job will be stopped (cleanly, not by killing the process) and rescheduled to continue its execution later. If I look at the documented limitations there is no word about any execution time limits. Also JobScheduler does not mention anything . Is this a time limit I should

Recently I started getting Android native crashes (reported in Google Play vitals). They happen only on Samsung Galaxy S8 or S8+ phones with Android 8. According to the stack trace it is related to the UI renderer thread. However I don't know how to fix it or even where exactly in the app does it happen. Any idea how to find out where in the app does this happen? And why only Galaxy S8 with Android 8 are affected? Thanks. backtrace: #00 pc 0000000000071854 /system/lib64/libc.so (tgkill+8) #01 pc 000000000001e058 /system/lib64/libc.so (abort+88) #02 pc 0000000000008248 /system/lib64/liblog.so (

I've managed to get notifications working in older API's, but not Oreo. Creating the notification causes my app to still work fine (no messages in logcat), however SystemUI crashes and reboots in an endless cycle while the Activity is running. The is the error in logcat for the systemui process: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: width and height must be > 0 My code: private void showPlayingNotification() { NotificationCompat.Builder builder = mNotificationUtils.getAndroidChannelNotification(this, "Play", mMediaSessionCompat); if( builder == null ) { Log.i("Play Notification","No notification
