Publishing ADF Mobile App to Google Play

Hi,
I wrote an application in ADF Mobile, and I published it to Google Play.
When I try to install it on some devices from Google Play (Nexus 7 for example) I get the following error: "Your device isn't compatible with this version error message".
I also tried to install "El Perico" app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.synergetic.EPMobile&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zeW5lcmdldGljLkVQTW9iaWxlIl0.) and I got the same error.
When I download the app to the device and install it manually, it works perfectly.
How can I disable any limitation on this app?
Thanks,
Yossi

Hi,
I found the issue.
Nexus 7 lacks backward camera, so it was not compatible to this device.
I removed from Android manifest all the unnecessary required permissions, and it works like a charm.
Thanks,

Find link to app on google play

I am about to upload an app for Google Play and I need the url for the App, to be able to create postcards with QR codes.
So the app is not published yet
In iTunes connect, you can find the link as soon as you have created the app description, and when you right click the view in store button
However in Google Play it seems harder to find that link
Heres an exsample from the Google Play Developer help guide on how the links syntax is, the are referring to info in manifest file.
Syntax
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package_name>
Exsample
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps
Question is will it get the package name from the App ID field in dps app builder?
So i just need to add it their and then i can figure out the url
So in dps app builder if in the field App ID write com.company.summerholiday.in.sweden
then the url will be
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.company.summerholiday.in.sweden
I need to be 100% sure

Yes, you can enter this in the App id section in DPS App Builder. When you upload and publish the App, the App id will display in your Android developer account as well along with the App name.
Thus if you use App id=com.company.summerholiday.in.sweden, URL wil be http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.company.summerholiday.in.sweden

ADF-Mobile app will not rotate in iOS simulator or device

We have been coding an ADF-Mobile app in JDeveloper and testing on both a Motorola tablet and an iPad.
Both our application, as well as the demo "Deployment Successful" (found here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18941_01/tutorials/MobileTutorial/jdtut_11r2_54_1.html) application rotate fine from portrait to landscape and back on the Motorola device, however, the same code will not rotate on an iPad.
I understand that the device orientation functionality is controlled in the deployment profile. I have been successful with forcing my app to launch in landscape mode OR portrait mode (By deselecting both portrait settings or both landscape settings, respectively in my deployment profile) however, when I leave all 4 enabled, my app seems to be locked in right-side-up portrait mode (It will not even rotate between portrait modes)
Has anyone experienced this issue with iOS devices and the rotation functionality, and if so, is there a workaround?
Any help is appreciated
Gord Taylor

Hi,
There is a known issue when you use Xcode 4.5 and iOS SDK 6 to compile your app - the app would not rotate correctly. If you use Xcode 4.4.1 and the associated SDK, then rotation will work fine on both iOS 5 and 6 devices.
Xcode 4.5 certification should be coming soon - for now please try to use 4.4.
If you are already using 4.4, please let me know and perhaps there are configuration issues.
Thanks,
Joe Huang

I don't know if you fixed it already by this time or not. But here is my findings anyway, to be able to inject the security header correctly in any SOA Gateway service, you need to have your Mobile Application Secured, meaning that there is a prompt for username/password when you open it.
Then you will have to make a Proxy service for the webservice you are using from apps. And you must create it with a SOAP Handler also and write below sample code in the handler to inject the security header in the SOAP call. At last, you are going to deploy this proxy service to your Application Server.
These steps were taken on a Glassfish server not Weblogic. I think there is an easy way for this if you are using Weblogic..
Sample handler is below:
package com.mobile.xxsoap;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.soap.Name;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPEnvelope;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPFactory;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeader;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPHandler;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPMessageContext;
public class CustomSOAPHandler implements SOAPHandler<SOAPMessageContext> {
    private static final String AUTH_PREFIX = "wsse";
    private static final String AUTH_NS =
        "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd";
    public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext context) {
        try {
            SOAPEnvelope envelope = context.getMessage().getSOAPPart().getEnvelope();
            SOAPFactory soapFactory = SOAPFactory.newInstance();
            SOAPElement wsSecHeaderElm = soapFactory.createElement("Security", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            SOAPElement userNameTokenElm = soapFactory.createElement("UsernameToken", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            SOAPElement userNameElm = soapFactory.createElement("Username", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            userNameElm.addTextNode("redsam");
            SOAPElement passwdElm = soapFactory.createElement("Password", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            Name passwdTypeAttr = soapFactory.createName("Type");
            passwdElm.addAttribute(passwdTypeAttr,
                                   "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText");
            passwdElm.addTextNode("123456");
            userNameTokenElm.addChildElement(userNameElm);
            userNameTokenElm.addChildElement(passwdElm);
            wsSecHeaderElm.addChildElement(userNameTokenElm);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        return true;
    public Set<QName> getHeaders() {
        return new HashSet<QName>();
    public boolean handleFault(SOAPMessageContext messageContext) {
        return true;
    public void close(MessageContext context) {
I hope it is clear now...

ADF Mobile App integration with webservices, connection refused error

I created an ADF application for department search with business components and exposed this as a webservice. I can access the WSDL locally from a browser. Then created an ADF mobile application and deployed it to android emulator. I am able to deploy the application to emulator and I can see the app on Android emulator. When I try to search for any department, I am getting "cannot connect to localhost on port 7101 : connection refused". My server is started already and the port number is also correct. Did any one came across this issue before? Even the WSDL URL is not accessible from the browser of android emulator.
Edited by: adf_forum on Nov 16, 2012 2:16 PM

Hi,
One more thing to keep in mind is that Android emulator is itself a network host, and localhost will likely loop back into itself, i.e. emulator. Please try to set up the WLS to listen on an actual IP address for your development machine, create your WS DC using this real IP address, and then try to deploy/run the app.
If you need to retrofit your app with an new IP address, please keep in mind there are several places you would need to manually fix up, including the connections.xml file.
In general, if the device emulator's browser cannot hit a web service, then the ADF Mobile app will also not be able to hit a web service.
The most reliable way is to treat the emulator like an actual device, then work out your application's connection accordingly.
Thanks,
Joe Huang

Google's wireless service is official, dubbed Project Fi (Update: app hits Google Play)

Google's wireless service is official, dubbed Project Fi (Update: app hits Google Play)

There is no harm in having multiple A-V software installations as long as only one is running real-time / on-access detection in the background. That will cause you a lot of slowness as they struggle to scan files simultaneously. It's unlikely that any of them will find anything that isn't already detected by OS X as long as you keep it fully up-to-date, don't disable it's protection and pay attention to alerts they give you.
I have at least six A-V products installed at the moment, but only use them for testing and rarely have one of them running background processes other than updates.

Auto App on Google Play..

All of us or some of one time or another is using our phones for Navigation Google just re-leased an App that helps more with Navigation..
You can find more Via the link and Source Droid Life:
http://www.droid-life.com/2015/03/19/google-pushes-official-android-auto-app-to-google-play/

I take it the guy who started this thread is the developer of the app lol..
I just purchased it on the google store and tried it, after about 5 mins of testing i hit the refund button
Sorry but that app is pointless! the app image on the google store is very deceiving as the icons are not clear as they appear to be in the image for the app.
The icons for each app you associate are very poor, i had a hard time figuring out which icon was for which app!!
I also tried adding one program which was shazam hoping this would allow me to not only launch the program but also to start the shazaming process but no this was not to be.. so basically i would still have to get my phone out of my pocket inorder to hit the "Touch to Shazam" button on the app
For the price this app is very poor and pointless as you would still have to access your phone in order to do something with the app once opened

Why can't I see my android app on google play on phone?

I've built a native android app which works fine on a tablet, but I can't see it on a phone App Store, any idea why?

After you test the .apk file, log in to the Google Play Developer Console (https://play.google.com/apps/publish/). From there, you can either unpublish the previous app and add the new app, or you can submit a new version (upload a new .apk binary) of the existing app. If you're updating the existing app, you might need to go back into Web App Builder and override the version number. Instructions for doing this are in the link Neil provided.

Can't Purchase apps from Google Play Store

Hello,
After recieving my phone and setting it up through AT&T (had to get micro-SIM), I have recently noticed that I can download free apps but couldn't download (purchase) any paid apps. I recieve this error everytime I try to purchase an app:
I also have another Xperia phone which I was using with AT&T previously and it didn't have any issues buying any apps from the Google Play Store. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Steve H.
If you can't see the image, the image reads: "Your purchase on your AT&T Mobility USA billing account was declined. Please select a different method"

That would be up to the provider from my understanding. With this being the case I would advise you to have a chat with your network provider.

The emulator can run out of space for applications - so if you have other applications deployed to the emulator remove them and then try again.

Adf mobile app accessing e-business suite 12.1.3

Hi,
I'm very new with ADF development, let alone with building a mobile app. We are in an exploratory stages of building a mobile application on top of the e-business suite using ADF. Ideally, we will use the ebusiness suite login (FND USER) to login to the mobile application. I understand that we need the ebiz suite Java SDK to make this possible.
Now, our ebusiness suite (release 12.1.3) is only run through the intranet meaning no DMZ is installed to access it via the internet. The question is, if we build a mobile application, do we need a DMZ server so that the mobile can access the e-business suite in the internet? Is there any option in place other than installing a DMZ to access the application externally by the mobile app?
Any advise is going to be very valuable to us.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not entirely sure about that - there will be the requirement that your ADF (or more appropriately "WebLogic") environment will need to authenticate against E-Business Suite.

Is there any option in place other than installing a DMZ to access the application externally by the mobile app? You'll need to set up some type of server infrastructure that allows you to install WebLogic and an "ADF" environment to serve your mobile applications, preferably fronted by an HTTP server like Oracle HTTP Server (It's usually the HTTP Server that might be placed in a 'DMZ', with firewall rules governing how network traffic is allowed to move between the HTTP Server and the WebLogic Server.)
A good intro that can give you an overview of a deployment topology is one that I've referenced in the WebCenter documentation from time to time:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/core.1111/e12037/intro.htm#sthref47
.. there is obviously a lot more in that document than you wll be using (i.e. you won't be concenred with SOA, WebCenter or even the database), but there's a nice drawing there of the HTTP Server and a WebLogic environment to host your application and some discussion about what and when you'll want to consider clustering, etc.
Hope that helps,

Failed to deploy ADF Mobile app on Android device

Hi,

Creating Single App for Google Play store

Hi there,
I have a Single edition of DPS and I'm creating a single app for iPad.
Now, my client needs upload a single edition app for Android to GooglePlay store.
My question are:
1) I need upgrade my DPS account to Profesional?
2) Can I cancel the Profesional acount after 3 mounts if I pay monthly fee?
3) What happen if I cancel the account. The app will be unavailable in the Google Play store from that momment?
5) The profesional DPS Acount include only 500s folio downloads by year?
Thanks a lot!

Thank you for reply Himanshu Singh.
I understood that if I have uploaded a folio called "BEACH SEPTEMBER" will be available in Google Play for download, but I can't upload new folios ("MOUNTAIN JUNE") when I cancel my suscription?
How many folio downloads are available by year in DPS Pro?

IPhone App in Google Play

Hi guys,
the last days we created an iPhone app and 960x640-Folios of our magazine that is already in the iPad newsstand and on Google Play (both 1024x768-Folios).
As we were testing the live app (free, public) with the same App ID as the iPad/Android App on our iPhone, we recognized that the 960-Folios were offered in our Android App.
Is this a bug or does this mean we have to create an additional Android-Version? Of course we do not want to sell the iPhone retina renditions on Android tablets, but the 1024-Folios.
Greeting
Michaela

The viewers on the two platforms use different rules for displaying content. The iOS viewers display only folios in the proper aspect ratio (4:3 for iPads, 3:2 for iPhones), and the viewers scale both up and down. The Android viewers display folios of any aspect ratio, and they scale only down. So your 960x480 folio will show up on a Xoom both letterboxed and pillarboxed.
The easiest workaround is to create a special folio rendition for the iPad that's just barely not 4:3 aspect ratio, such as 1024x767. If your files are organized properly and you have a sidecar.xml file, it shouldn't take more than a few minutes. That folio will show up on the Android viewers instead of the iPhone rendition. You'll want to copy the files and make the source documents 1024x767 as well.
If you have time, designing 1024x600 and 1232x752 renditions will make your content look better on Android devices.

Apple App Store requirement for ADF Mobile Apps

I got updates from Apple that detect deployed ADF Mobile ipa that sent to Apple iTunes Connect As
Missing recommended icon file - The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120' pixels, in .png format.
Missing recommended icon file - The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPad of exactly '76x76' pixels, in .png format.
Missing recommended icon file - The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPad of exactly '152x152' pixels, in .png format.
Non-PIE Binary - The executable 'qe.app' is not a Position Independent Executable. Please ensure that your build settings are configured to create PIE executables. For more information, refer to Technical Q&A QA1788 - Building a Position Independent Executable
How to solved it, as it might facing with rejection from Apple and really urgent issue.

Hi,
has this been rejected by Apple or is it just a warning flagged? What is the version of ADF Mobile. Did you download and install the recent ADF mobile version. Try Help --> About --> Extensions and look for the "ADF Mobile Framework" version. Ensure its
ADF Mobile Framework oracle.adf.mobile 11.1.2.4.39.64.51
If the version is below, then use Help--> Check for update to install the latest version.
