According to Android 12 documentation there is special in/out-call notification that will show that called 'prominent chip'.
It's looking like that:
I tried to use the code from Android example:
// Create a new call with the user as caller.
Person incoming_caller = new Person.Builder()
.setName("Jane Doe")
.setImportant(true)
.build();
Notification.Builder builder = Notification.Builder(context, CHANNEL_ID)
.setContentIntent(contentIntent)
.setSmallIcon(smallIcon)
.setStyle(
Notification.CallStyle.forIncomingCall(caller, declineIntent, answerIntent))
.addPerson(incoming_caller);
In my application im using NotificationCompat and NotificationCompat.Builder
but this line Notification.CallStyle.forIncomingCall is refer to non Compat versions so I can't use the logic of forIncomingCall to my existing notification.
The NotificationCompat class from AndroidX hasn't been updated to include this new style yet - you can search NotificationCompat on https://cs.android.com to check the latest version of the file, and then you'll have to wait for a new release of the androidx.core:core library.
In the meantime, you'll have to use the platform Notification type if you want to use the new call style:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 31) {
// Use Notification with Notification.CallStyle
} else {
// use NotificationCompat
}

I'm trying to get a string (UserID) using Preferences.Get (Xamarin.Essentials) on a PushNotification.Extension project, but as the Preferences.Set happens in the Xamarin iOS project, I'm always getting an empty string in the extensions project.
Is there a way to share this preference between the iOS project and the iOS.extension?
public string UserID
{
get
{
return Preferences.Get(nameof(UserID), UserIDDefault);
}
set
{
Preferences.Set(nameof(UserID), value);
}
}
According to Apple docs , please follow the steps to enable data-sharinig .
Enable App Groups Capabilities , refer to App Group Capabilities in Xamarin.iOS.
Add the app to the App Group .
Use NSUserDefaults and init it with the name of the extension bundle identifier.
//Save
var defaults = new NSUserDefaults(#"com.example.domain.MyShareExtension");
defaults.SetString("value","Mykey");
defaults.Synchronize();
//Get
var defaults = new NSUserDefaults(#"com.example.domain.MyShareExtension");
var value = defaults.ValueForKey("Mykey");
"NSUserDefaults(string)" does not work for me.
In the Xamarin iOS documentation this constructor is marked as deprecated! see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/foundation.nsuserdefaults?view=xamarin-ios-sdk-12
But when I use "NSUserDefaults(String, NSUserDefaultsType)" it runs perfect.
I used the Xamarin version of SoupChef for Siri Intents. I was able to access the Container's Assets from the SoupChefIntentsUI.IntentViewController by requesting the bundle by identifier (using the BundleIdentifier of the main App) and then I just loaded the image by passing the bundle
CGSize DisplayOrderConfirmation(Order order, OrderSoupIntent intent, OrderSoupIntentResponse response){
/* unrelated code */
//this line work in the SoupChef example but
//On Xamarin.Forms this returns null
var containerBundle = NSBundle.FromIdentifier("com.something.SoupChef");
//always returns null because it seems it looks into the IntentsUI.Assets
var iconNull = UIImage.FromBundle("AppIcon");
//it returns the icon from the SoupChef.Assets
var iconNotNull = UIImage.FromBundle("AppIcon", containerBundle, configuration: null);
/* unrelated code */
}
I was also able to retrieve the AppIcon by creating the NSBundle doing something like this (in case you didn't want to assume that the bundle identifier names don't follow the Apple standard where the Container and the extensions have the same bundle identifier with the exception of the last segment)
CGSize DisplayOrderConfirmation(Order order, OrderSoupIntent intent, OrderSoupIntentResponse response){
/* unrelated code */
Class GetClassForType (Type type)
{
IntPtr myClassHandle = Class.GetHandle (typeToLookup);
if (myClassHandle != IntPtr.Zero)
return new Class (myClassHandle);
else
return null;
}
//this returns the bundle identifier of the SoupChef app
//(not the SoupChefIntentUI) on the SoupChef example
//on Xamarin.Forms (my project) it returns the IntentsUI identifier
var containerBundle = NSBundle.FromClass(GetClassForType(typeof(SoupChef.OrderIntent)));
//the icon is returned
var icon = UIImage.FromBundle("AppIcon", containerBundle, configuration: null);
/* unrelated code */
}
My problem is that I want to do the same thing on a different project that is using Xamarin.Forms, and the two previous ways that worked for me on the SoupChef project don't work here.
Is there a way to access the Assets set on the App.iOS.Assets or do I have to move them to the shared project where I have the models and other things that both the App.iOS and its Extensions are using?
I noticed that the Bindings (the project where the OrderIntent is) in the SoupChef example has the same namespace as the Container App ("SoupChef"), so I assigned the same namespace in my project with Xamarin.Forms and still nothing.
I have I have been wasting at least a day trying to make this work. I am trying to play an mp3 file that i placed in Resources/raw once a notification is received. I do not know exactly how to get the Uri. My questions please are:
1.To play a custom file do you have to place it in Resources/raw or can it be also in Assets/Sounds under the Xamarin Android project.
2.How do i get the Uri correctly based on where the mp3 file resides.
This is my code:
private void createNotificationChannel()
{
var channelName = GetString(Resource.String.noti_chan_urgent);
var channelDescription = GetString(Resource.String.noti_chan_urgent_description);
// set the vibration patterm for the channel
long[] vibrationPattern = { 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 400, 300, 200, 400 };
// Creating an Audio Attribute
var alarmAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder().SetUsage(AudioUsageKind.Alarm).Build();
// Create the uri for the alarm file
var alarmUri = Android.Net.Uri.Parse("MyApp.Android/Resources/raw/alarm.mp3"); // this must be wrong because its not working
// create chan1 which is the urgent notifications channel
var chan1 = new NotificationChannel(PRIMARY_CHANNEL_ID, channelName, NotificationImportance.High)
{
Description = channelDescription
};
// set the channel properties
chan1.EnableLights(true);
chan1.LightColor = Color.Red;
chan1.EnableVibration(true);
chan1.SetVibrationPattern(vibrationPattern);
chan1.SetSound(alarmUri, alarmAttributes);
chan1.SetBypassDnd(true);
chan1.LockscreenVisibility = NotificationVisibility.Public;
var manager = (NotificationManager)GetSystemService(NotificationService);
manager.CreateNotificationChannel(chan1);
}
}
I figured it out and I hope this will help someone better than getting a downvote for a question, this is how you do it:
(Note: Make sure you put your mp3 file in your Xamarin Android project under Resources/raw/soundFile.mp3 and build the file as Android Resource).
Then create the Uri like this:
Android.Net.Uri alarmUri = Android.Net.Uri.Parse(${ContentResolver.SchemeAndroidResource}://{Context.PackageName}/{Resource.Raw.soundFile}");
Create the Alarm Attributes like this:
var alarmAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
.SetContentType(AudioContentType.Sonification)
.SetUsage(AudioUsageKind.Notification).Build();
And finally setSound on the channel itself ONLY from Android Oreo onwards (not on the notification, create the channel at application launch):
chan1.SetSound (alarmUri, alarmAttributes);
uri = Android.Net.Uri.Parse(
"android.resource://" + Application.Context.PackageName + "/raw/sound2");
only change I had to make. to Fredsomofspeech answer.

was running a file android could not play, so make sure download a mp3 file for testing verified to work.
Firebase has option to set language code or app language for current user in order to get verification, password reset emails in defined language like below. below is from Android SDK implementation
Additionally you can localize the verification email by updating the
language code on the Auth instance before sending the email. For
example:
auth.setLanguageCode("fr"); // To apply the default app language
instead of explicitly setting it. // auth.useAppLanguage();
But i am using rest api within my uwp application and this option is not defined in rest api documentation
Does anybody know how to achieve this?
Anybody else is looking for solution. you need to add header as X-Firebase-Locale: 'fr'. C# code will look like as below. you can find the full implementation here
public async Task SendEmailVerificationAsync(string firebaseToken, string locale = null)
{
var content = $"{{\"requestType\":\"VERIFY_EMAIL\",\"idToken\":\"{firebaseToken}\"}}";
var StringContent = new StringContent(content, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
if (locale != null)
StringContent.Headers.Add("X-Firebase-Locale", locale);
var response = await this.client.PostAsync(new Uri(string.Format(GoogleGetConfirmationCodeUrl, this.authConfig.ApiKey)), StringContent).ConfigureAwait(false);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
}
I googled but didn't find a post for Flex mobile..
All I want for now is display an user agreement popup from TabbedViewNavigatorApplication when the user uses the app for the first time
var agreementView: UserAgreement = new UserAgreement();
PopUpManager.addPopUp(agreementView, this,true);
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(agreementView);
but maybe more later.
Please help..
What i did in my desktop air app;
I guess this will work at a mobile app also.
Make sure you have write access;
open yourproject-app.mxml scroll down to the end of the document. In the section, uncomment the following permission:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
Now you can create files like for example an sqlite database.
At the applicationcomplete call the function checkFirstRun:
// functions to check if the application is run for the first time (also after updates)
// so important structural changes can be made here.
public var file:File;
public var currentVersion:Number;
private function checkFirstRun():void
{
//get the current application version.
currentVersion=getApplicationVersion();
//get versionfile
file = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
file= file.resolvePath("Preferences/version.txt");
if(file.exists)
{
checkVersion();
}
else
{
firstRun(); // create the version file.
}
}
public function getApplicationVersion():Number
{
var appXML:XML = NativeApplication.nativeApplication.applicationDescriptor;
var ns:Namespace = appXML.namespace();
var versionnumber:Number =Number(appXML.ns::versionNumber);
return versionnumber;
}
private function checkVersion():void
{
var stream:FileStream= new FileStream();
stream.open(file,FileMode.READ);
var prevVersion:String = stream.readUTFBytes(stream.bytesAvailable);
stream.close();
if(Number(prevVersion)<currentVersion)
{
// if the versionnumber inside the file is older than the current version we go and run important code.
// like alternating the structure of tables inside the sqlite database file.
runImportantCode();
//after running the important code, we set the version to the currentversion.
saveFile(currentVersion);
}
}
private function firstRun():void
{
// at the first time, we set the file version to 0, so the important code will be executed.
var firstVersion:Number=0;
saveFile(firstVersion);
// we also run the checkversion so important code is run right after installing an update
//(and the version file doesn't exist before the update).
checkFirstRun();
}
private function saveFile(currentVersion:Number):void
{
var stream:FileStream=new FileStream();
stream.open(file,FileMode.WRITE);
stream.writeUTFBytes(String(currentVersion));
stream.close();
}
private function runImportantCode():void
{
// here goes important code.
// make sure you check if the important change previously has been made or not, because this code is run after each update.
}
Hope this helps.
Greets, J.
Some you need to store whether the user has agreed to the agreement or not. IF they haven't agreed, then show it.
One way to do this would be to store a value in a shared object. Another way to do this would be to use a remote service and store such data in a central repository. I assume you'll want the second; so you can do some form of tracking against the number of users using your app.
