Mobile Device info showing 'not set' - google-analytics

I integrated google analytics with my android app. It's gives very useful information i need, but in Mobile Device info tab, i found some devices are shown as 'not set'. What it means? Am I want to configure any settings to get those data. Please suggest me the solution.

Change the 'primary dimension' to Operating system on the devices screen to get more visibility into 'not set' devices
ref: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/analytics/n-LDtWGhZiY

I'm from Turkey, and in my case, these not set devices are the devices that are produced by top ISP's or mobile network operators, thus, their information can't be collected by GA.

Thanks for the primary dimension tip. I switched it around with the Mobile Device Info as the primary and the Operating system as the secondary. I then used the screen resolution to have an idea if it's mainly tablets or phones. Cheers!
According to what I found, it means that the data was not able to be collected: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2820717?hl=en
Apparently you can use filters to dig deeper, but it seems like it'll take some time to do.

CSS media query for whether a physical keyboard is attached

Suppose I have a site with keyboard shortcuts, where I want to display said keyboard shortcuts visually as part of whatever element they apply to.
On a touch interface, especially a phone, I don't want to bother because:
nobody would use a soft-keyboard this way even if they could
the visual display of the keyboard shortcut takes up valuable real-estate
it's perhaps confusing, or at least inelegant, to display keyboard shortcuts in a keyboardless context
However, the media query documentation doesn't seem to mention anything about this.
It's 2016, is this still impossible?
Unfortunately there is no query in Media Queries 4 to identify the existence of a keyboard.
There are other new queries though that might be helpful.
In my own application I'm assuming that a keyboard exists when there is a mouse or a touchpad as primary input. You can query for that with
#media (hover: hover) and (pointer: fine) { ... }
This query would go false for devices with a touchscreen, stylus devices and also exotic devices like camera input.
Note that with this query you're querying for primary input devices. You can query all input devices with
any-hover and any-pointer.
Also note that as of date, the adoption for MQ4 is 81% of all browsers, but no Firefox: https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-media-interaction
Media Queries 4 does not provide any media features for determining whether a physical keyboard is attached. There's nothing stopping you from proposing such a feature for MQ4 or MQ5 over at the www-style mailing list, though keep in mind whether such a media feature would be easy for vendors to implement is another story.

Google map not responding on android's native browser after 4-5 times zoom in and/or area navigation

I have developed a mobile site using Icefaces-mobile framework in that I want to search the things based on area zoomed in on the mobile screen, for this users can zoom in/out & navigates the area but the problem is after doing zoom in/out/navigations 4 to 6 times browser becomes unresponsive. I think it must be problem with browsers capability of handling/execute the javascript(correct me if I m wrong).
I have generated latest API key for map using some standers steps given by google on their forum.
Thanks in Advance.
The stock Android browser does suffer from serious limitations, and it could be device performance limitations, as the previous poster mentioned. But you should also be careful that you're not inadvertently causing a memory leak in your own JavaScript. Are there DOM updates from Ajax interactions being generated during this? Check the Android LogCat messages to see the ICEfaces/ICEmobile logging which will show the updates. Check to ensure that if you're custom function is being re-run that you're not causing a memory leak there. If not, I doubt there's an issue with the GMap code and it's likely just a device limitation. Perhaps also put your gmap code in a separate HTML page without ICEmobile and see if you still have the problem.

Quicktime X - How to hide mouse during screen capture?

I am attempting to record an app demo on the simulator, and want to use the Quicktime screen capture feature. However, I would like to hide the mouse during the capture.
Is this possible?
Doesn't seem to be a built in feature, so I am assuming I need to use some sort of plugin or hack.
Any suggestions?
QuickTime itself does not seem to offer this functionality therefore you have to resort to some other means to hide the cursor. On OSX there are some tools that allow this.
Cursourcerer is the first that springs to mind. However, as this really hides the cursor, it might not be ideal as you yourself will not be able to see what you are doing.
However, if you do not need to use QuickTime per se, it seems there are commercial screen recording solutions allowing this sort of thing such as Screenflow. I am not affiliated but the price seems reasonable and there is a demonstration of desired behavior here.
You don't record your app in your computer, but directly on your iPad or iPhone, connected to your Mac with a lightning cable. Then in Quicktime you select the "New movie recording" option (instead of "New screen recording"), then you will be able to select your iPad/iPhone as the "camera" and start recording your app running in your iOS device without any mouse pointer.

OBS can record your app window, and it ignores the cursor on the window.
Useful even if you are not a youtuber.
Cursorcerer for 10.14+ ⇨

MouseHider.app for 10.13 and earlier ⇨ https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mouse-hider/id894419721?mt=12
I use option+command+k (⌥+⌘+k) to show / hide. It works globally.
It's also useful to hide the mouse cursor when you do the control-scroll zoom trick to focus in on a video.

How to develop website/application to view in tablet pc?

I am developing website and it has to be viewed in tablet pc. Please suggest me what are things to be considered ? technology wise ?
also i need to know what are the tools i need to have to view in my intranet as well as.
A major issue: in many tablets there is no moving pointer - at least not in a fully usable form. That means that tooltips may not really work, and image maps must be really clear, since there is no highlighting until the user actually "clicks" on the link.
Well, actually that's not fully accurate - if the user drags the pointer, it should work like a regular mouse pointer. The problem is that most users avoid dragging and just tap where they want to click directly.
Best piece of advice I can offer: get an actual tablet PC and try browsing your site. Most major issues will be evident almost immediately. If you are able, get a regular tablet/pad user to beta-test your site without trying it out on a desktop PC - they would be able to see issues that you would miss due to your prior knowledge of the site.
The Tablet PC is a standard Windows machine, therefore it has the same browser support as any other Windows box. So there isn't any special technology required.
There are however some design considerations:
First, make sure your layout has plenty of empty space surrounding iterative elements. Crammed pages are tough to navigate with a stylus, and if it is one of the newer models that also support touch it is even more of an issue.
Second, most Tablet PCs are configured with the default font size set for 125%. You want to make sure that your web pages scale correctly and don't end up requiring horizontal scrolling to see the full width of the page.
A second point regarding scaling, Tablet PC supports both Landscape and Portrait modes. In other words, it can be 1024x768 OR 768x1024. You'll want to make sure that your user experience is acceptable in both modes.
One thing i can think of : there is no 'hover' on most tablets, and if it's there at all, likely nobody will see it.
Not all tablets support flash, but they do all support javascript, and Prototype.JS or jQuery will run on them in most cases

What tool can I use to test my web app in different resolutions?

Back in the past,
i found a third party webpage that was able to capture and save images of my website in different resolutions and browsers. Of course i have no more that bookmark...
So is there any webpage or application where i can see how my webpage looks like in different resolution?
And here are the resolutions i would like to check for..
1. 1024x768 24.56%
2. 1280x800 22.06%
3. 1280x1024 13.42%
4. 1366x768 7.10%
5. 1440x900 6.68%
Perhaps you're thinking of http://browsershots.org/ ?
Note that the screen resolution of the computer running the browser is only half of the truth. If the browser isn't maximized, it will be a lot smaller than the resolution you see there, and on non-Windows operating systems (Mac OS X, Linux) it's a lot more common to run applications non maximized.
It's simply best to make sure that your site is viewable in anything from small windows (just resize your browser down) to large.
If you want to check various resolutions and browsers, then BrowserShots may have been what you came across before, give it a look.
For viewing which percentage of people sees how much of your web page:
http://browsersize.googlelabs.com/
Also: Web Developer plugin for Firefox (Resize menu).
Chrome Extension and Firefox add-on to resize your browser to various standard resolution sizes...
There is one more online tool called ScreenFly which is very good and you can even check for tablets, TVs, mobiles.. screenfly
There are many utils available for watching your website in different resolutions.
Some are installed on PC, some are online services like these:
Adobes "render browser" - you'll need to create a free Adobe account:
http://browserlab.adobe.com
Nice, but not free if you want it fast as I recall it:
http://browsershots.org/
Google - shows what part of your website is visible based on statistics from Google:
http://browsersize.googlelabs.com/
But as far as I know, todays most commonly design resolution is 1024x768, eventhough the height isnt that important because of the popular scrollwheel on most mice/pads.
If you design to design for this resolution there is a lot of design help in the "growing standard" called 960 grid, which is based upon how many professional designers build a design.
You always make an invisible "grid" and then you use the cells to arrange the contents. Much like the old "table" system, but much more focused on professional designs.
Regarding your question, the % you list, seems like you would have most use of the "Google" link above.
Lastly, always remember to test how your website looks with the most used browsers. For me those 4 will be:
Internet Explorer (latest and previous version, use more than one computer to test if you cant do a double installation of it)
Mozilla Firefox (latest and perhaps previous.. but they make less changes in the render, so latest would be ok)
Google Chrome (awesome debugging tools too, and a very stable browser)
Safari (so you make sure that you support MacOSX)
Thats my opinion.
The Multibrowserviewer is a great (paid for) tool for multi browser support, I know it's not free, bt worth looking into even just for the trial period.
