I'm realizing a new splash screen with Xamarin using Visual Studio 2022 (17.2.5) on Windows 10.
When I deploy the app on iPhone simulator or iPad simulator, the splash screen is the one I created, but when I deploy it on a physical device, no matter if iPhone or iPad, the Xamarin blue splash screen appears.
I tried to:
modify the default LaunchScreen.storyboard file (changing the background color);
remove the LaunchScreen.storyboard file and not reference it in the Info.plist;
create a new storyboard file with a different name and reference it in Info.plist;
delete the app from the physical devices and re-deploy it.
What Am I missing?
Thank you in advance
I'm working with a QHD screen, and would like to simulate a FHD PC screen, not mobile device.
Currently in dev tools when I pick a device there are mobile phones/tablets and a "Responsive" option. The Responsive mode will also enable touch simulation and prevent mouse navigation via back/forward button.
Is there an option to simulate a different screen resolution without simulating a mobile device?
Normally on a smartphone this won't be an issue. However when using an emulator on a computer or mobiles with a physical keyboard, this becomes an annoying issue. I just would like to disable keyboard on screens where there is no text-field or anything to type such that typing doesn't open up the virtual keyboard for no reason. Looking for a way to just straight out disable virtual keyboard and enable it later when needed.
I need some help in displaying the actual device in Android Studio. At the moment I can only see the screen of the device but not the rest of the device.
I have attached an image so you can see what I mean.
It is not emulator it is design view for layout
I'm trying to debug a problem that seems to be happening only on OnePlus devices, unfortunately buying this device is not an option for me, so I've been looking on Google how to emulate an OnePlus device but without any success :(
Is there any way I can reproduce the hardware specs and software characteristics on a GOOD android emulator??
Short answer: No. You can not run a Cyanogen OS device on the Android Studio emulators. However, there is a workaround where you can make a oneplus one clone that works on android:
Click on the “Run ‘app’” button
In the dialog, click the button in the bottom left corner with the text “Create New Virtual Device”
Click the button with the text “New Hardware Profile” in the bottom left corner
Enter the specifications and the name (Some examples: OnePlus 1 specifications, OnePlus 2 specifications, and OnePlus 3 specifications)
Click Finish
Click Next
Choose the system image (It will show a dialog, if doesn’t then skip this step)
Click Next
Choose your preferences
Click Finish
There's no way to perfectly emulate any phone. Running Nexus 5 emulator would bring you a 'device' with some proper values like screen coordinates or Android system version, but it won't make you sure that if it works on an emulator of Nexus 5, it would work also on the real device.
As I know, OnePlus is using Cyanogen OS (so it's not the same as you would find on Nexuses or Samsung devices), so one opportunity is to find a cheaper option phone with this custom Android system like Willey Fox brand devices.
Also, check your app on Genymotion emulator - it also uses a custom Android system based on CyanogenMod, but as you already know, the best way is to check it on a real device.
Hope it will help
