Tips & tricks android developer should know - part 3

Description: In this post I'm gonna demonstrate some useful tips which we could come handy in our app development life cycle

Also check out Part 1 and Part 2.

So let 's get started.


1. Grant all permissions at once in Marshmallow and above.  

As we know marshmallow compatible apps require permissions. So we normally show permission dialog to the user asking to grant us. That's fine. But every time clicking that 'allow' feels annoying for developers.

So the idea is to allow all the permissions at once without every time clicking the allow button.

Below  shell script will help to make it happen flawlessly.
#!/bin/sh

#add your package_name
PACKAGE=com.app.code2concept

#create array with all the permission you need to enabled    
PKG_ARRAY='android.permission.CALL_PHONE
        android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
        android.permission.READ_SMS
        android.permission.READ_CONTACTS
        android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
        android.permission.CAMERA
        android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE'

#lets exceute our command
for permissions in $PKG_ARRAY; 
do
 echo $permissions + ' granted'
 adb shell pm grant $PACKAGE $permissions
done

echo 'Bingo its done'
OUTPUT:
$ sh grant_all_permissions.sh
android.permission.CALL_PHONE +  granted
android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS +  granted
android.permission.READ_SMS +  granted
android.permission.READ_CONTACTS +  granted
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION +  granted
android.permission.CAMERA +  granted
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE +  granted
Bingo its done'

2. Battery Historian

Battery historian translate the battery stats into visualization form thereby helping us to figure out whats the cause and how we can optimized our battery usage.

Pre-requisite:
1. 'adb' is configured
2. Devices is detectable using 'adb devices' command
3. Python(2.7)  is install and path is set.

Step 1: Reset the battery stats to fetch fresh info using below
adb shell dumpsys batterystats --reset

Note: Disconnect phone and explore the app for few minutes and connect again

Step 2: Capture 'batterystats' using below command
adb shell dumpsys batterystats > batterystats.txt

Note: The command creates a file name 'batterystats.txt' into the current directory

Step 3: Clone or download the Github repo of 'Battery Historian' from Here. You will find a python script at path '../battery-historian/scripts/historian.py'

Note: You can keep both 'historian.py' and 'batterystats.txt' in the same folder for ease

Step 4: Finally let execute the python script against our 'batterstats.txt' as input as show below
python historian.py batterystats.txt > batterystats.html
This will create 'battertstats.html' fig.1 which we can use to analyse the battery usage as shown HERE.
