Hi there,
i got a little problem:
I got a Loxon (loxone.com) home automation system.
In there, there's a function to open app from URLs, as far as i understood it works through the intent service, for example i tested with success the yatse xbmc remote.
I launched the app through yatse:// as defined on the yatse developers web page.
So and now my problem:
as far as i understand the apps developer needs to define a custom intent sheeme in the apps manifest.xml
But there aren't many app developers using the custom intents, so i want to add the feature by myself.
I read about it on many websites but never got it to work. i don't need actions defined, such as open sms app and preinsert the number, just open the apps, for example squeezeplayer:// for the squeeze box apk.
Could anyone please give me a before-after example for an app? That would be awesome.
I know about decompiling apks, editing the manifest so no need for an detailed step-by step.
I know about a negative side effect after editing the manifest if an app update is installed the changes go away, but thats sometihing i can live with. (set aut update off):silly:
Thanks in advance
Edit
: i found this on stack overflow for opening apps through url but never got it to work:

the most common basic app for beginners is the calculator. u should be able to find a lot of youtube tutorials online.
Most of your android app coding will be done with a combination of xml and java.
You would use either eclipse with the adt plugin, or android studio to do so.
As was previously stated a calculator app should have many many tutorials for doing so online.
One of the better basic android tutorials I have found is by a fella named travis who has made a series of tutorials that he has posted on youtube under the name "thenewboston" what I like about them is he doesn't get overly technical and his delivery is sorta like being taught by one of your buddies over some beer. I have passed that to several of my friends who have asked me to "teach them to code" as I don't tend to have the patience to do that properly.
How do I build a YouTube app for Windows 10 Mobile
I want learn how to build YouTube app
Help plz
Well you need to tell more info than just asking for help. What is the thing you need help with? What YouTube app you are talking about? AFAIK you need a source code for the app if you want to build it with Visual Studio so do you have it?
You need get YouTube API , using Visual Studio dev app.

I have an idea for it. Somebody just need to wrap the m.youtube.com web mobile app to be more like a native app, since it's already almost feature complete, and its Material design already, so you guys won't bother much on design. And just maybe add some little native things there like Native Windows Video Player API and controls, maybe casting too, some CSS modifications on the web app's features and looks too, like making the tabs hide when you're scrolling down, and will show up when you scroll up again (just like the YouTube app) (which is not present on current mobile web app) or some custom animations too, ability to scroll through tabs with swipe (currently not possible on mobile web app's CSS rn), maybe a more native rewrap of dialogs on the mobile web app, native to Windows, I don't care if it's Material design on this aspect as since Windows design APIs is still incomplete btw, as long as it's responsive and interactable than the CSS ones, and also maybe native PiP on the app, ability to collapse the player/video page if you swipe down on it or tap collapse button, the whole video page will collapse and fade and the native player will be small at the side, also ability to dismiss it to end the remove or stop the video too.
The good thing with this is you wont need an access to YouTube API (I think) (which is also very restrictive and limited) since you're just wrapping some parts of the web app instead of remaking it.
This is all theoretical btw, since I know few of programming and developing bc I'm more of a UX designer myself. I hope this is possible. And hope someone brave see this idea and really do this. We'll back you with our support

So what you want to do is create an appx with a webview inside with the uri m.youtube.com basicly, more complex app would be using Youtube API.
Please don't make a web wrapper :crying: . There are enough of those in the Store already and I'm pretty sure the YouTube APIs aren't that restricted, haven't you guys downloaded myTube already?
Instead, search for the YouTube Data API and figure out how to use HTTP requests to send/receive JSON to use data from Google into your app.
This is to want to reivent the wheel, poius ja exixte several clients of Youtube available in the store and for free
Hey guys,
I want some help with coding a feature in my app on Android Studio. I need to know how to make an advanced search engine which works with filters just like the ones on Trivago where you can search into a database from rating, price, city, etc.... So I need the filters for non-numberic data like for example: Search by city, school's degree, type of animal. Things like that, any help would be amazing and thanks I'm new to programming and Android Studio and stuff.
Hello, I am looking Android App Development help please.
I would like to make an Android TV box app and was wondering if I can get some help creating one with the following requirements;
1) Looking for a Template, for starters, so I don't have to code one from scratch since I have no idea of what I'm doing
2) Configure the app to utilize a Username/Password which verifies the account on a server database that I control.
3) Hopefully it will be easy to include a link within the code that reaches out to an XML file on my server or whatever where I have a list of Video Streams/Feeds that the app reads and you can select what video you want to play.
Thank you
Hi I'm not an android coder but a c# coder in terms of a template project, something like this? https://github.com/hitherejoe/AndroidTvBoilerplate
I just searched android TV boilerplate (a boilerplate is template). Hope it helped.
