De-obfuscate the stack trace using Proguard GUI 


Store the Proguard mapping.txt file for each released APK, which will be useful to de-obfuscate crash or exception stack trace.

Steps to retrace :-

1. Go to your SDK location -> Android_SDK\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20131030\sdk\tools\proguard\bin folder

2. Run retrace.bat file , choose "Retrace" option.

3. Add your proper mapping.txt

4. And paste the dumped stack trace , stack trace should be from "at" on each line

5. Proguard will replace all method and class names according to the mapping file.

Implementing RecyclerView

I'm working on Android hybrid apps from last 5 years, its very tough to stay in touch with Native android UI, Now I started learning through sample applications, so thought of sharing my learning here.           RecyclerView has came with Material design in Android Lollipop, RecyclerView is advanced, flexible version of Listview, RecyclerView uses the view holder pattern  and improve the performance by reusing off screen views and rebinds them to the data which is scrolling on the screen, now lets see the difference between list view and recyclerview. Difference between RecyclerView and Listview :- 1. RecyclerView forces to use RecyclerView.ViewHolder (Inbuilt view Holder) to hold the elements, to reuse the cells while scrolling, which was optional in Listview which we used to create in adapters getView() method. 2. Animation while adding list items or removing list items are already added in the recyclerview. 3. List views were only of vertical...

Adding Call log entries in Native Call Logs

While adding call logs we can set number in CallLog.Calls.NUMBER field , same for date  and duration. CallLog.Calls.CACHED_NAME will be filled with the cached name in case if the number is already saved in Contacts database. ContentValues values = new ContentValues(); values.put(CallLog.Calls.NUMBER, number); values.put(CallLog.Calls.DATE, System.currentTimeMillis()); values.put(CallLog.Calls.DURATION, 0); values.put(CallLog.Calls.TYPE, CallLog.Calls.OUTGOING_TYPE); //Type of call Outgoing/Incoming/Missed etc values.put(CallLog.Calls.NEW, 1); values.put(CallLog.Calls.CACHED_NAME, ""); values.put(CACHED_NUMBER_TYPE, 0); values.put(CACHED_NUMBER_LABEL, ""); this.getContentResolver().insert(CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI, values); Below Permissions are required to add call logs , add it in Manifest file, <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CALL_LOG"></uses-permission> <uses-permission android:name="android.perm...

Ways to define Singleton Classes

Singleton classes comes under "Creational design pattern", Singleton pattern restricts from creating multiple instances of the class,and ensure that only one object should be available in the JVM, there are different ways to implement singleton classes as below :- Ways to define Singleton classes :- 1. By defining the singleton class object as static final variable, this is known as early initialization of singleton object. public class SingletoneClassExample{ Private static final instance = new SingletoneClassExample(); // Define private constructor to avoid other classes from creating instance private SingletoneClassExample(){ } public static SingletoneClassExample getInstance(){         return instance;   } } By creating singleton class using above method the class object will be created at class loading itself, so if application is not using this class still the object will be created. 2. Define singleton class object on method call public clas...
