Question: What is the importance of having an emulator within the Android environment?

Answer: The emulator lets developers “play” around an interface that acts as if it were an
actual mobile device. They can write and test codes, and even debug. Emulators are a safe
place for testing codes especially if it is in the early design phase.

Question: What is ANR?

Answer: ANR is short for Application Not Responding. This is actually a dialog that appears
to the user whenever an application have been unresponsive for a long period of time.

Question: What data types are supported by AIDL?

Answer: AIDL has support for the following data types: -string, -charSequence, -List, -Map, -
all native Java data types like int, long, char and Boolean

Question: What do you think are some disadvantages of Android?

Answer: Given that Android is an open-source platform, and the fact that different Android
operating systems have been released on different mobile devices, there’s no clear cut
policy to how applications can adapt with various OS versions and upgrades. One app that
runs on this particular version of Android OS may or may not run on another version.
Another disadvantage is that since mobile devices such as phones and tabs come in different
sizes and forms, it poses a challenge for developers to create apps that can adjust correctly
to the right screen size and other varying features and specs.

Question: How do you remove icons and widgets from the main screen of the Android
device?

Answer: To remove an icon or shortcut, press and hold that icon. You then drag it
downwards to the lower part of the screen where a remove button appears.

Question: What is a Fragment?

Answer: A fragment is a part or portion of an activity. It is modular in a sense that you can
move around or combine with other fragments in a single activity. Fragments are also
reusable.

Question: When is the best time to kill a foreground activity?

Answer: The foreground activity, being the most important among the other states, is only
killed or terminated as a last resort, especially if it is already consuming too much memory.
When a memory paging state has been reach by a foreground activity, then it is killed so
that the user interface can retain its responsiveness to the user.

Question: What is portable wi-fi hotspot?

Answer: Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot allows you to share your mobile internet connection to
other wireless device. For example, using your Android-powered phone as a Wi-Fi Hotspot,
you can use your laptop to connect to the Internet using that access point.
