[@mertcankartal4453]

this series the best i have ever seen in youtube or other platforms thank you so much philipp. best regards

[@kskfernando2945]

Hate to say it guys this series is pretty much deprecated now. We need a new one. Just take the core idea of the each video and look it up in the official Android documentation. Its the best way imo.

I had some issues with my menu bar, I created it as described in the tutorial but didn't see it. I later found a solution for it. I created a styles.xml file in res/values directory. then added this in the styles.xml file then also added the theme to my activity in my Manifest, like so

I did it still ii isnt working can you help?

[@SirDanMartin]

your tutorials are clear and a good pace to follow. Thanks for the great content.

I loved your Android fundamental series, But can you make one on testing since it is the most basic fundamentals of android and yet many of the beginner android devs are unaware of testing, Hope you can extend this fundamental part with testing included

[@PhilippLackner]

Thank you! I agree that testing is very important, but personally I think it is not a topic for beginners. Beginners should focus on getting their app to work no matter how. If they are able to do this they can focus on improving code quality and doing bigger projects with testing and stuff. However, that doesn't mean I won't make videos about testing, I will. But currently I can't say when that happens. After this series I will do some more advanced content

[@Luffy_2804]

finally testing is going to happen

[@webmobile21]

sir I cannot see menu, your app have default topbar but I don't, please help

[@monkeystandards]

I have the same problem. All code looks correct but no menu shows! I am sure there is something missing in my code but not sure what!

[@Luffy_2804]

open layout -> go to values -> themes -> check if the actions bar is set to no action bar , if it is set to no action bar then set it to may be it will fix

Sir, you just gained a new subscriber.

You don't need create directory "menu", then create resource file menu. Just choose Android resource file on res folder, resource type menu (!!!) and file name and it will be create folder menu with your menu resource file

Hi. For first thanks a lot for this series. For second i have a question: You set the gear icon for settings but it's hiden and the Settings are in inflatable menu "..." with two othes items (Feedback and Close). When i change parameter to app:showAsAction="always" then gear icon for Settings is shown but Feedback and Close are still in "..." menu. What to do to have shown gear icon for Settings, and after click on it have Fedback and Close? Or, sayed in other way, how to change "..." icon to other, a gear icon for expample?

What should I do if I want to make 2 toolbars on same screen?

[@daiyrkanybekov8575]

Great tutorial Bro!!!

[@okbaabdelghani6225]

that was very helpful

[@Imelec]

Perfect thanks you ! But I'm looking to replace the title of the toolbar to an image but I'm having troubles...

[@PhilippLackner]

use a custom toolbar

[@aotahuu4375]

Can anyone explain me why don't we need to call return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);?

[@boluwatifechristian5951]

The purpose of this function is to create a menu bar for an Android app.

[@goobar]

Nice 👍

Thanks!

Why it doesn't show toast when I click on icons :(

[@bigotes20random86]

Maybe you forgot to call .show() in each toast

[@yutaitadori7318]

Thanks♥️

[@guy1407]

Thanks again for the tutorials. Posting my own code, for the benefit of all watchers. In my code, I use item.title to show the selected menu text also, since kotlin is new for me, I was interested in how to use when/else and also , how to do more than a single operation (use curlly { } ) ============= override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean { when(item.itemId){ R.id.mnuClose -> finish() R.id.mnuSettings -> { val message = "You can do more than one operation with 'when'" Toast.makeText(this,message, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show() } else -> { Toast.makeText(this,"You clicked on " + item.title, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show() } } return true }//onOptionsItemSelected

[@anurudhsingh3397]

tysm buddy!

[@DanielTobi00]

add the finish() func was a good one, this helped.

[@hod64]

Obsolete. No app:showAsAction, no menuInflator, etc. Great tutorial otherwise. It would be nice to have an updated series.

This course has a lot of problems in 2023

[@mayor3367]

Hi. It is not his fault that android updates a lot of things too often and deprecates things too often. I am guessing you have a problem with the toolbar menu not appearing. This is as a result of the fact that the new android api uses Material design for its theming. You can change that by going to the themes.xml file within the values folder and changing the parent value from whatever is in there to Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar. The color might be different because of the differences in options within the file but the toolbar should appear. I hope you don't get too frustrated with android development. It can be really frustrating sometimes and that frustration alone has lead me to abandon learning android development so many times.
