It's available on the Play Store. It's a very simple app and it's been a while since I last updated it. If you have any comments let me know.

Hello, I think I have a faulty headset since when it's plugged in I get the playback randomly paused and the volume randomly changed. Is there any app I can use to disable headset control? That would help me diagnosing what's going on.

You can try to track down what's consuming your battery using an app that gives you more insight that the system one. I am trying GSam battery monitor and I think it's quite good. By the way, it reports that my phone is getting [email protected] I'd like to compare this data with someone else. Also...

None of those are active. Also, wake-locks should affect mostly the battery drain when I'm not using the phone (they keep it active). How do they relate to my problem?

That was what I suspected. I think I'm going to order a new battery and see if that helps.

Thanks, this is very good news! Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I am on 3G/WiFi, but I'm not doing anything computationally intensive. I'm mostly reading email, using WhatsApp. I'm not even watching videos. Brightness is set on 3 out of 10 with automatic regulation so I'd not think it's it. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Hello, I am using a Note 3 since yesterday and I noticed a very weird battery usage pattern. When the screen is on it consumes about 1%/minutes, which looks crazy high to me. On the opposite, when the screen is off it consumes close to nothing. Is this normal? I'm running a stock Android 5.0...

What about the feature that will be missing from CM? Is the S Pen going to be usable as an input device for drawing and such? Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Is anybody already working on this? I'd like to follow the development thread if there any Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Hello, since Samsung is not releasing Android M for this device I was thinking of using a custom rom. Obviously I am not going to have TouchWiz but I was wondering if everything else (e.g. the S-Pen) is going to work fine. Also, I see that for now there is no official CyanogenMod 13 for this...

I moved some of my apps from the main memory to the SD card. Everything worked fine but as soon as I update them they get back to the phone memory. Is it possible to avoid that and have the apps updated on the SD card instead?

Are you experiencing this issue also with version 1.4?

I'm glad to hear that. Yesterday evening I've been busy and I didn't do anything. Thanks for spotting the mistake, I'm going to update the readme

Unfortunately I'm at work now and I can't help you right now. I'd be happy to help you this evening. Your best bet is to open a issue on github and to post there your gradle file

I'm not sure what the issue is and I cannot debug it till the evening. Can you try with 'com . mariosangiorgio.RateMyApp:[email protected]' I'm not sure it is going to solve but it's worth a try. Would you mind reporting the issue on github so I can keep track of it?

Just a quick update. Chris2Toaster committed some changes and I released a new version. As usual, it is on GitHub and on Maven Central.

The ability to disable the library is already in the code. Have a look at PreferencesManager.disableAlert(). I am not sure what control you have over in app purcheses. If you already have the chance to do something when you process the purchase maybe the best solution is to invoke that method...

Thank you for your comments. I think you are totally right. I'm going to fix the issues you highlighted over the weekend.

It seems it is actually already supported by Android itself. Basically you just need to define in your xml files the values you want to override and they will replace my defaults. Have a look at this Q&A...

I don't know if it is possible to override the strings in the xml file. Does anyone know if I can do it? It would be great to allow you to use custom messages.

Over the weekend I'm going to integrate Vinicius' pull request. https://github.com/mariosangiorgio/RateMyApp/pull/11 It basically changes a bit the behavior trying to get e-mail feedbacks instead of bad ratings, following what is described in this article...

I hope so. I just published the library on maven central so it should be easier to set up everything now. If you are using Android studio have a look at the readme on github for instructions about how to set up the dependency with Gradle. As usual, feedbacks and comments are more than welcome...

I finally managed to publish a compiled version of the library. It is available here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/673233/RateMyApp.aar I think that soon I'll work on hosting also binaries on GitHub so that they will be available as dependencies.

That's strange. I just tried it and it works. If you just want to have the user notified on the third launch of the application you should use the following code and simply omit the settings you are not interested into. RateMyAppBuilder builder = new RateMyAppBuilder()...

Did you set both the parameter related to the number of launches and the parameter realted to the day elapsed? If you did that it is ok that the library does not show anything because both the conditions have to be met. If you just set the option related to the number of launches there is a bug...

I updated several things: the readme on github now has a screenshot the library now supports optional parameters. The alert can get triggered either by counting only the number of launches or how much time elapsed from the first install the library now supports custom ways to show the alert to...

The repository contains a LICENSE file and the code is released under the MIT license.

If you already have some code and you would like to contribute to this library you are more than welcome. Otherwise I might work on that in the future but since next week I am relocating to a new city I cannot tell you when I will be able to add the possibility to choose between shared...

Unfortunately I used shared preferences :( I was not thinking at the scenario where the user first uninstalls and then reinstalls an application Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

The library stores its data in a file and when the dialog is marked as processed it sets a flag which disables further notifications. Actually a user may see the dialog twice on different devices. We could avoid that with the synchronisation of the data file but I don't know if ot is worth the...

Thanks for your comments. I'm going to support custom ways to show the alert to the user. The library will still contain the alert message but developers will be able to show whatever they want (possibly something less invasive) when the conditions are met Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks for pointing it out. It is extremely important and the parameters regulating when the application should ask for a rating should be set with care. I decided to try to make it the less annoying possible by showing the message only once (if not explicitly deferred by the user) when both...

I am going to make a compiled version of the library next week as soon as I get back home Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thank you! I'm traveling without my computer and I cannot push your translation to the repository immediately. If you like you can fork the project on github and create a pull request, otherwise I'll integrate your translation as soon as I get back home Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Since a few days I am experiencing a very strange issue when I connect my S4 to my parents' wireless network. Until a few days ago everything worked perfectly. My other devices still works properly and my phone worked as expected in my home network. Now, at my parents' place, as soon as I...

Great. Let me know what you think about the library. I hope you won't have any issue but in case you have problems let me know and we will try to sort them out. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I'm using Android Studio only. It sometimes has glitches, but overall I like it, especially for its integration with gradle.

After attending a talk about how to market our applications in better ways I just published a library I developed to ask users to users a rating on the Play Store. It is extremely simple. It keeps track of the first time the application has been used and a counter of the number of times the...

There are both card-specific applications (For instance FareBot shows you details about several public transportation cards) or generic readers (A previous post recommends NFC Tag Info).

I developed an application to keep the time of a futsal (five vs five football) match. When we play with my friends we take in turn of five minutes the role of goalkeeper. The app plays a sound when each turn ends, but so far we have troubles hearing it because the default ringtones are not so...

After I started this thread I contacted Google but they cannot help me. They said they are going to introduce the possibility to move accounts but until they do I'm out of luck Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I bought my Nexus 7 last year when I lived in the US. I also redeemed the $25 promotional Google Play Balance and I used it but for $0.87. Now I'm stuck in a very strange situation. The balance should have expired on September 30th 2013, but I still can see it on my Google Wallet. Unfortunately...

I read here that the update to Android 4.3 will bring us ant+ support directly from Samsung. I am still waiting the roll out on my device, so I cannot really tell how it is going to work. However it seems a good piece of news.

I also reported the issue to Samsung through a friend of mine who works there but at the moment there is a little confusion regarding Knox. At the moment the enabled it but they still have to deploy the service with the security policies. It should be online when they roll out the update to...

Unfortunately I still have to find an answer. If I happen to find it I'll keep you posted. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4

rumors says that 4.3 update will be available soon. We just have to wait a little more Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4

Removing the certificates I managed to enable dash clock. I am still not too satisfied from having to choose between the pattern lock and dash clock. On my nexus 7 I'm sure I'll use dash clock, but on my phone (where dash clock is more useful) I'd like to have more security. Sent from my...

Another thing I did was the configuration of my university wifi network which required me to install a certificate. I think it is more likely to be the culprit. Now I just need to figure out how I can disable/remove it and see what happens. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4

I read that the issue may be related to encryption. I recently added a SD card from Samsung but I didn't encrypt it neither the phone. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
