Apple event on September 12th at Apple Park

This year, Apple's big reveal is at a new location: the 1,000-people Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park, the company's brand-new "spaceship" headquarters in Cupertino, California.

Expect it to be as much of a presence at the event as Tim Cook and the new iPhones.

Apple is planning to break with tradition and release three phones in September: the iPhone 8, iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus.

iPhone 7s and 7s Plus are anticipated to feature minor upgrades to the iPhone 7, such as a faster chip and longer battery life.

The iPhone 8, as it will probably called, will feature a radical redesign in celebration of the 10th anniversary of the first iPhone.

It could give the device a new name in honour of the splash, The company is also expected to unveil a third generation of the Apple Watch and a 4K Apple TV.

A price tag of almost $1,000 would make the new device 54 per cent more expensive than Apple's current iPhone 7.

Google re-branded the support Android libraries to AndroidX

It is important to note, you cannot mix AppCompat and Jetpack in the same project. You must convert everything to use Jetpack if you want to upgrade. The support library artifacts are being deprecated and all future development is going into AndroidX , so there's no avoiding this migration. Alan Viverette sums this up nicely: “There won’t be a 29.0.0, so Android Q APIs will only be in AndroidX” The stable release of 28.0.0 will be the final feature release packaged as android.support . All subsequent feature releases will only be made available as androidx-packaged artifacts. Below tips will give you a clearer transition path. The current version of AppCompat (v28.x) is exactly the same as AndroidX (v1.x). In fact, the AppCompat libraries are machine generated by changing maven coordinates and package names of the AndroidX codebase. For example, android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity is now androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity For a complete listi

Android Beginners Guide

Android Operation System: Android is an operating system based on Linux with a Java programming interface. It provides tools, e.g. a compiler, debugger and a device emulator as well as its own Java Virtual machine (Dalvik Virtual Machine - DVM). Android is created by the Open Handset Alliance which is lead by Google. Android uses a special virtual machine, e.g. the Dalvik Virtual Machine. Dalvik uses special bytecode. Therefore you cannot run standard Java bytecode on Android. Android provides a tool "dx" which allows to convert Java Class files into "dex" (Dalvik Executable) files. Android applications are packed into an .apk (Android Package) file by the program "aapt" (Android Asset Packaging Tool) To simplify development Google provides the Android Development Tools (ADT) for Eclipse. The ADT performs automatically the conversion f

Android Pi migration(28 API support)

I am here to give some inputs on android PI migration. . Apps must target at least API level 28 to ensure it is built on the latest APIs optimized for security and performance . From August 2019, new apps must target at least Android 9.0 (API level 28) . The objective here is to make sure that your existing app works as-is on Android 9. Because some platform changes might affect the way your app behaves, some adjustments might be necessary, but you do not need to use new APIs or change your targetSdkVersion. Android Service Problem On Oreo, startService() will throw IllegalStateException. This can be fixed by changing it to startForegroundService(). but it also stops the service immediately if you don’t bind to the Notification with Service.startForeground() within 5 seconds. For other background service we decided to use the WorkManager . Implementation: Since we have minSdkVersion 19, We migrated to workmanger for scheduled tasks and we still use JobIntentSer
