Issue/Problem: when deploying an app to android that has the: (camera, json, or barcode components on a form) the app starts up with a black screen flame and hangs and closes down. Has anyone tried the trial version of TMS FNC WX Pack Android? -- link: https://www.tmssoftware.com/site/tmsfncwxpack.asp I have been having a difficult time with the trial version v1.5.1.0 (via Getit) working on my smartphone with Android 10, using Delphi 11.2 Alexandria Professional under Windows 7 and also Windows 10 laptops. The trial version states to set it in release mode (For mobile device deployment, the trial version supports deploying in release mode only) which I have done, but after the app is deployed I still have a black screen with the Delphi flame and it eventually closes whenever click out of the screen. I am hoping that someone with similar experience knows how to resolve this issue. I would really appreciate the help. Thank you.

Hi there, I was experimenting with the Android.template.xml, to use different API-related selections, to searate old and new Bluetooth settings. Some recommendations in the web point to this nice and clean solution, so separate APIs in the manifest: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="..."> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" android:maxSdkVersion="30" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" android:maxSdkVersion="30" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN" android:usesPermissionFlags="neverForLocation" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" android:maxSdkVersion="30" /> <application ... /> </manifest> Using the android:maxSdkVersion and the android:usesPermissionFlags="neverForLocation" identifier would allow an easy control over different versions. Unfortunately this didn't work in my current setup, maybe I have to rry again with a clean project, but I see a failure "attribute neverForLocation is not available". This seems that targeting to API31 is needed, and I'm still under API30, in its D11 default setup. But I'm not sure why this message pops up, and is not simply ignored, if there is an unknown attribute. Probably this needs linked somehow to the API31, and API30 throws exception. To be rescued, maybe the android:maxSdkVersion might work under different versions in different configurations, to make Delphi compatible with several API's at the same time in one manifest ? To be clear, I'm not talking about the targetSdkVersion here, but if someone could make use of the android:maxSdkVersion attribute already. I'm curious if somebody has get this working as expected under Delphi. Beside that, what would be the best way to handle BluetoothLE under API30, to be compatible with old and new devices ?

Windows 7 Home 64bit Delphi XE7 Professional update 1 with FireDAC and Mobile add-on Indy version 10.6.1.518 Android version 10, (on smartphone) Android versions 4.4.4, and 4.4.2 (both on tablets) Issue/Problem: When I launch the app on Android, and click on the [Submit] button, the app shuts down when it tries to access the idhttp section here: idHttp1.get(url_address); It works fine under Windows FMX and VCL, just not Android. Can someone please help me resolve this? Thank you. History: Hi. I have been successfully creating small utility apps on my android devices (Galaxy S10+ (android 10) and tablets (android 4.x.x)) for the last 8 years. I've been playing around with a new windows project using API through OMdbAPI (an IMDB knock-off) to get quick movie/tv series info. The API is free for 1000 requests. I love it. It works well. Usage is simple, using the following -> [https://www.omdbapi.com/?t=Contact&apikey={8-dig-key-code}] as it will give back a JSON string (below), then I parse it to get back a two-column detail to visualize the data better. Later I plan to fine-tune it and display only certain info from it. Right now, I am simply debugging it on Windows 7 and Android. {"Title":"Contact","Year":"1997","Rated":"PG","Released":"11 Jul 1997","Runtime":"150 min","Genre":"Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi","Director":"Robert Zemeckis","Writer":"James V.

In Delphi 10.4, I was able to get a listing of files in an Android 11 device's shared storage. In Delphi 11.2, with necessary permission set (either programmatically or on the device), TDirectory.GetFiles() is returning an empty list (ie. zero entries). TDirectory.GetDirectories() is working correctly, and using TFile.Exists() with a filename which I know to be present returns true. But, if I try to open that file with, for instance, TFile.ReadAllText(), access is denied. Any suggestions? This is an example program which fails in Delphi 11.2: unit test11main; interface uses System.Types,System.Classes,system.sysUtils,system.IOUtils,system.Permissions, {$IFDEF ANDROID} Androidapi.Helpers, Androidapi.JNI.JavaTypes, Androidapi.JNI.Os, {$ENDIF} FMX.Types,FMX.Forms,FMX.Dialogs; type TForm1 = class(TForm) procedure FormCreate(Sender: TObject); private fOK:boolean; procedure PermissionsResult(Sender: TObject; const APermissions: TClassicStringDynArray; const AGrantResults: TClassicPermissionStatusDynArray); end; var Form1: TForm1; implementation {$R *.fmx} procedure Tform1.PermissionsResult(Sender: TObject; const APermissions: TClassicStringDynArray; const AGrantResults: TClassicPermissionStatusDynArray); var n:integer; begin if length(AGrantResults)>0 then for n:=0 to length(AGrantResults)-1 do if not (AGrantResults[n] = TPermissionStatus.Granted) then fOK:=false; end; procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject); var DataDir:string; p:Tarray<string>; LList: TStringDynArray; begin fOK:=true; { if I omit the next two lines and manually set permissions on the Android device it still does not work} p:=[JStringToString(TJManifest_permission.JavaClass.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE), JStringToString(TJManifest_permission.JavaClass.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)]; PermissionsService.RequestPermissions(p,PermissionsResult,nil); if fOK then begin DataDir := TPath.GetSharedDocumentsPath; showmessage(DataDir); //correctly displays /storage/emulated/0/Documents Llist:=Tdirectory.GetFiles(DataDir); showmessage(inttostr(length(Llist))); //returns zero when run in Delphi 11.2 end else showmessage('permission refused'); end; end.

I am trying to work out some issues with compiling certain components and need to list out all installations that pertain to Android development. I use the Android SDK tool to install various Android files. Although I can compile apps and deploy them to my Android device, I believe that I have messed things up pretty well, I think. F:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\15.0\PlatformSDKs\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20131030\sdk\tools\ --> Android Tools And I want to list out the same details seen below but in "text" format (so that I can post it to someone). I don't want to post it as an image like the below, plus also because there are a lot more info not seen in this image below and would require multiple images to post, and it would be better to post a text file and send that off to the person. Is there a command line tool that I can use to obtain the same text and layout? I can clean it up to look in a similar layout as in the image just above if I have to. Thanks.

Hello. To get string versionName value of field inside <manifest> key, in AndroidManifest.xml file, I use this code: function GetFileVersionName: string; var PackageManager: JPackageManager; PackageInfo : JPackageInfo; Begin PackageManager:= SharedActivity.getPackageManager; PackageInfo := PackageManager.getPackageInfo(SharedActivityContext.getPackageName, TJPackageManager.JavaClass.GET_ACTIVITIES); Result := JStringToString(PackageInfo.versionName); End; If the filed is in a meta-data key, inside <activity> section, like this... <meta-data android:name="productName" android:value="HelloWorld" /> how can change above code to retrive it? Thanks.

Prior to 11.2, I used Android Monitor to access Log.d messages from my Android apps. Monitor appears to have been deprecated, and so I have attempted to access logging through adb logcat. While this returns a large amount of logs, copying the output and performing a search for logs from my app returns nothing. I've also attempted adding parameters to filter on the app itself, such as: adb -d logcat <app name>:I *:S which returns: --------- beginning of main --------- beginning of system But nothing else. I have also tried Device Lens 1.3.0 (mentioned by Dave Nottage here), which detects the Android device, displays all processes & allows a screen capture, but clicking the play icon to display notifications only shows one message, and that's it. I had no problems accessing logs using this device and app with the previous version of RAD. I would be very grateful for any help with this matter, thanks in advance.

Greetings, I have a TMapView component on my firemonkey (android) form. It gets the map image nicely, and I can scroll, zoom in, etc... I need to be able to save that mapview image to storage on an android app, and I'm having no luck. I can't even copy it to another TImage component. Can anyone help me with this? - How can I save the mapview image to local storage on the android? - How can I copy the mapview image to another image component? I've tried things like image1.assign(mapview1.MakeScreenShot) to copy, and MapView1.MakeScreenShot.SaveToFile(filename), but neither of those work. (Assign doesn't do anything, and SaveTo results in an error. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, Updated to Delphi 11.2 the other day and now unable to install apk file to android device (Tab6 Lite).

Thanks in advance Bill Zwirs

The difficulties when trying to use OpenSSL filters on a DataSnap application with an Android client have numbers of entries in various forums that go back a number of years. To summarize the problem: 1. Create a DataSnap server that specifies a filter of RSA, in my case using Delphi 11 Update 2, running on a Windows server as a service. 2. Create a DataSnap client that is deployed to an Android device, in my case a Samsung SD-9 with an ARM64-v8a instruction set running Android 10 3. The client application crashes because it is unable to load a required OpenSSL module. I have tried a number of solutions that are discussed in various places but nothing works for me. My question is: Does anyone know of a RECENT posting that provides a workable solution to getting an RSA filter to work with DataSnap/Indy/Firemonkey on an Android device? My current understanding that the root cause of the problem is probably the failure of Indy to remain current with Google's erratic development habits, that has deprecated OpenSSL in favor of a branch called Boring. Has this been addressed effectively by anyone? If not, are there any plans to do so? Thanks in advance, Milan

[See 2nd Post on Solution] I keep hitting this road-block. There no source code it's pointing to. It's just pointing to CPU assembly code. It's always the same segment fault. How do I trace it down? The segment fault happens when it gets around 33 or 34 files of ran*.txt. There's plenty of space left to create hundreds more files, but it likes to stop around 33 or 34 on the ran*.txt Tfile.copy? I added true to the end of it... but the overwrite parameter didn't help.

Hi, I discovered on my test smartphone (samsung) that I can change the display mode of the virtual keyboard: Put it in a "floating keyboard" mode. This solves the problem since you can move the keyboard so that it no longer covers the input field. 3 questions arise: 1. Does this possibility exist on all Android smartphones and/or on all versions of the Android OS? 2. Question 1 for iOS smartphones 3. Is it possible to force this "floating keypad" mode via programming? Thank you for your feedback

I am tackling my first Android app (Firemonkey) using RAD Studio. It is supposed to be a mobile version of a Windows VCL app I already did (language: Pascal). It has to access the same client dataset files (.xml) that the Windows app uses, which are stored in a local Windows network share. I have Googled and found all sorts of esoteric references to JCIFS, Samba, etc. I have got as far as installing JCIFS-1.3.19.jar under the Libraries folder in my Android Target node in Project Manager. So how do I actually use this in my app? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me

I'm using Alexandria (RAD Studio 11.1) but when I try to configure my Android 64 bit project in the Options > Building > Delphi Compiler > Compiling options. After select "All configurations - Android 64-bit platform" as the active target, I don't found in the "Other options" the "Generate Android App Bundle file (arm + arm64)". In the online manual at this link: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Alexandria/en/Submitting_Your_Android_App_to_Google_Play there is also an image showing this option, but in my delphi it is not present! This option instead is present in 10.4.1. Without this option it is not possible to have an .aab file to upload to the Google Play Console. Can someone help me?

I have a customer who can't install our Android app on his Samsung Galaxy Tab A. The Play Store says the device isn't compatible with this version. I don't understand why. I owned the same tablet previously and didn't have this problem. I am using: Embarcadero® Delphi 10.4 Version 27.0.40680.4203 with Update 2. Android SDK 26.1.1 Android NDK r21e Thanks, David Carroll

Hi all, A generic question. I'm deploying my apps with an embedded SQLite DB. Each time I compile/deploy, that existing on device DB file is overwritten by the default one. It's fine for development. But how do you actually proceed if you want to deploy an update? If a user has the app already with personal data, I don't want her/him to lose that data. Testing whether the DB already exists is not possible since it's deployed each time within the new binary. One way would be to have all the code to check whether the DB exists. If not, programmatically create it and fill it with sample data. If it does, just check its version and apply possible structure upgrades? But it feels like this would embark a lot of code that may not really be useful. How do you guys deploy news versions of your apps without overwriting exists DBs? I especially think about iOS and Android devices. Thanks for any light. Steve

Hi all, I'm looking to distribute my android app on play store using Delphi 10.3. I know I should upgrade to Delphi 11, but trying to compile the app in the new version I'm stuck in a number of memory or compilation issues. When on Delphi 10.3 I try to start the project deployment I always get the same error "[PAClient Error] Error: E0002 Missing profile name; use paclient -? For Help". I tried to use various versions of the SDK: I tried 26, 28, 29 and even 30 but nothing. When I compile it in development mode both in debug and in release I can load it on my smartphone with Android 10, while compiling it in Release and Application Store mode I get the error mentioned. Some idea? Thanks in advance

Hello, I'm evaluating latest version of Delphi RAD for possible iOS/android phone application. I'd like to be able to use a phone camera (iOS and Android) to take photos (maybe 1 per second) and upload to my server. So.. 1). I found sample project "accessCameraApp" - my first question is.. would this be the component to use for my photo capture? - or should I be using something different? 2) I found internet references to indy components (I have used this in the past), but they are not installed on my component palette (no problem though I guess I can install later), but I did find TNetHTTPClient and TNetHTTPRequest, I was wondering which I should use (indy/TNetHTTPClient or maybe synapse if it is available?) for posting photo frames to my server? (i.e. a php page that saves photo(s) in database BLOB field). Any help to point me in the right direction would be great, it's more about the selection of components that I would need, I have plenty of Object Pascal experience, and I do a lot of camera work using javascript. It's just that the latest set of Delphi tools are new to me. Thanks in advance, Mike

We have a few users that experience freezing and very slow response in our Android App. In Google Play Console, we get these ANR messages: The app works on 99% of the devices, so it is not a general problem, and we cannot reproduce it on our devices. What can be the reason for these problems? Another user has posted a StackOverflow question about this a year ago - but no answers: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66657413/how-to-solve-anr-on-android-firemonkey PS. Could it be related to this warning ("Non-SDK API: Landroid/view/MotionEvent") that we also have? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70350726/delphi-11-app-in-android-play-store-shows-warning-non-sdk-api

Hi All! Does anyone have a Goolge account login implementation for Delphi 11? Examples like GoogleSignin tweaked for Delphi <11 don't work!

Hi, i have a multi platform app that i'm maintaining from a few time I'm getting used to debug problems, but when the app is stuck into the splashscreen and Delphi cannot even start the debug mode the problem begins. I used logcat but cannot really get any useful information. The last time i had this problem it was caused from some .so files in a wrong path and the code put into the initialization section to load those .so files was crashing my app. But this time i already fixed that and i already tried to comment out all the code into the initialization section. What can i try to understand why my app is stuck? Ide shows no errors, and this is my logcat The only error shown is "isHeavy hint type 1 for app" but i have no variable called isHeavy in my code so i really have no idea what is referring to 12-16

I have two different, very simple, cross-platform projects I'm using for development testing, one works fine, the other used to but is now getting a strange error when I try to deploy it to my Android device: The project that deploys fine has the same base project filename as the folder in which it resides. The second project (the one with the problem), DelphiVersions, is one of several projects in a folder, each project's name is appended with the type of platform it's for. The folder name is V:\DelphiVersions and I have DelphiVersionsConsole, DelphiVersionsVCL, and DelphiVersionsMobile in that folder. The last one, of course, uses FireMonkey, and is deployed to Android and iOS. I'm using Delphi 10.4 and had this working a few months ago but since Android 11 and API 30 was released I wanted to have more direct control over where and which SDK was installed and found this excellent blog that helped me get there. This also meant I switched to using OpenJDK and changed the location of the SDK and tools. Should still be good, right? As I examined the project trying to figure this out, I deleted temporary files, even removed Android support from the project and re-added it, and checked a few other things. The only thing I can think of that is different where deployment is concerned, is that the DelphiVersions one has "Mobile" appended to the end of the project name and one of the build tools must assume the project name is the same as the folder name. The obvious thing to try is rename the project to just DelphiVersions to match the folder name--I did that but it gave a similar error, this time with the path "V:\DelphiVersions\bin\DelphiVersions.apk" not found. So mismatched project name is not the source of the problem. Another thing to note is that I have projects for several versions of Delphi in sub folders and for Delphi 10.4 it's in a "104Sydney" folder and it actually generates "V:\DelphiVersions\104Sydney\DelphiVersionsMobile\bin\DelphiVersionsMobile.apk" (the file is actually where it should be!). I also looked at the deployment file list and the manifest file--still no clue. Why is the deployment process removing the first two sub-levels of folders in the filename?

Hello, I am using Delphi 10.4.2. There is a very simple app (needs internet and network status permissions, 3 pages total) that I need to run on Android 5.0.2. I compiled it with stock SDK 25.2.5 targeting Android32. When package tried to be loaded on Android 5.0.2 it says Compiler error There is a problem with the packet parsing. Docwiki says Delphi 10.4.2 supports Android 6 minimum. Even Delphi 10.3.3 supports Android 5.2 mimimum. I wonder if there is some "workaround" that I can use without installing an older version. Thanks & Regards, Ertan

It can be stupid but I decided to ask. In an android application just a Delphi form and its dependencies add 30MB in the file .so of the application. Is it possible to have it as an external library and being loaded when needed? Is that possible in android and how can be done? Thank you in advance
