Prime31 Android Plugins Officially Live!

@serious, how do you know it is a Int64? It's not documented yet by Google...

 

I just printed out the type and looked at it in the log when running on the device.
I understand that it's always risky to assume the type when it's undocumented so the safest way to convert would be to use Convert.ToString(dict["price_amount_micros"]) which handles all known primitive types.

 

@serious, have you figured out what price_amount_micros even is? I am getting a value of 0 for all my test apps even on the native side.

 

@prime[31]

Can you give me advice on which of your ads plugins can i implement in my Unity made Live Wallpaper, and ads will show in the Live Wallpaper and not on the settings page?

Thanks

 

@nitro, I havent a clue. All of our ad plugins merely inject an ad view in the main layout. I don't know what you are doing with your layout so I can't say.

 

It's supposed to be the number portion of the price (minus the tax), multiplied by 1 million (hence the micro). e.g. $1.99 will give you 1990000

This is really helpful (for us at least) since our analytics requires currency and the amount to be logged separately.

Not sure why it's returning 0 for you but it's working for me once I've fixed the conversion from long to string correctly in the plugin.

 

Thanks for the response, i will try to figure out something.

 

I'm still struggling to figure out how to get this working. I can seem to find a way to call a function to check whether something was purchased at all.

 

Hi Prime

We're having problems logging out of Facebook. It seems the sso session is not being closed when calling FacebookAndroid.logout().

We've had the same problem with iOS Social Networking for quite a while I'm afraid.

Could this have anything to do with your plugin or is Facebook to blame once again?

 

@break, I opened a bug report about that ages ago. Facebook closed it and said that it was the intended behavior to cache credentials. You can try opening a new bug report and perhaps you will have better luck.

Hi Prime

I've problems with billing plugin. It show me " SendMessage: object GoogleIABManager not found!" on my debug log.

I've try to re-import by delete the whole folder and import it again but notthing change.

How can i fix it?

 

@aczo, that is not an error, that is nothing more than a log message. If you subscribe to any event the GoogleIABManager fires then the log will no longer occur.

 

Hi Prime

Thank you for reply. As you said that didn't an error and now I figured out what problems are.

 

@prime, do you know any workaround if one would like to be able log out and log in as another fb user using sso? any way of revoking/annulling the cached login? maybe making it invalid somehow?

**edit**
Perhaps something like this (last reply)
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...-facebook-sdk-3-0-without-using-facebook-logi

 

@break, calling logout actually already calls closeAndClearTokenInformation but it will not work at all for SSO. SSO credentials are cached outside of the application.

 

Heya Prime! Quick one here.

How would I know if Game Services fails to start up due to the device not having the required software (Google+ or GooglePlay)? Is that in the authenticationFailed? If so, what is the exact error return?

Our app got rejected on the Samsung store because the button did nothing when used on their test devices that only have the samsung specific store (of which we don't have any). We just need to know when the use of Game Services is completely unavailable.

 

Hi again.

Was implementing "apprequests" and it doesn't seem to work properly. I ran your demo-scene and login and reauthorization works fine. Share works but there's no callback. Show Post Dialog and Show Apprequests Dialog do not pop the dialog at all.

***SOLVED***

There was a conflict with another plugin.

 

@steven, Google has dozens of failure methods. The best way to know the exact one they send is to replicate the environment and watch the logs while you have the *EventListener in the scene. It will dump the output of every single event that fires.

 

Some of the Android plugins contain an outdated android-support-v4.jar file. This can cause the Cloud Messaging plugin to fail with apps crashing when a push notification is received from the server (older versions of this file don't contain a method you're calling to build the notification). Specifically if you import the Social Networking combo plugin after importing the Cloud Messaging plugin you will overwrite that file and break your app unknowingly.

Please update all of your Android plugins with the latest version of android-support-v4.jar.

Thanks.

 

Hi Prime31;

An issue ? with TwitterAndroid.

After logging in, the string sent back via TwitterManager.loginSucceededEvent is not the actual @screen_name of a user, but rather the display name. This makes it impossible to pull down a user's profile information, as there is no exposed version of the iOS TwitterBinding.loggedInUsername I could use either.

Any suggestions?

edit:
Also there is a discrepancy in the manifest for facebook,
in manifest.xml it shows to add <meta-data android:name="com.prime31.FacebookPlugin" android:value="UnityPlayerActivityProxy"/>
yet the documentation site facebook needs to be set to "com.prime31.UnityPlayerProxyActivity"

Are these two different classes, or a typo altogether?

 

@jchilton, once authenticated, you can use the Twitter REST API to get any information you want about the user. The meta-data declaration has nothing to do with any Activity or any Facebook setting.

 

Correct, but I do not know what user is logged in, as the general way of getting a user information is to use 1.1/users/show.json?screen_name=xxxxxxx
However, I do not have a screen_name or userid I can plug in there. On iOS the screen_name is passed back after login, as well as available via TwitterBinding.loggedInUsername. I wasn't able to find the twitter equivalent of facebook's /me

-----

edit:
I found the equivlant of /me, it's 1.1/account/verify_credentials.json

Plugins work great by the way, very easy to use.

 

Prime31 : FacebookPlugin: openActiveSession.call with state: OPENING, exception: null

I can never get facebook to progress past this.
It will bring up the prompt to login, and then return to the app and nothing else will happen.
I think it's a manifest issue, as I have QCAR as my main activity, but there's also inconsistencies with what should be in the android version of the manifest on multiple parts of the site / compared to the manifest.xml included in the plugin's package.

http://pastebin.com/77mqruBn

Facebook settings have PackageName set to com.qualcomm.QCARUnityPlayer and Class name set to com.prime31.FacebookProxyActivity

 

@jchilton, QCAR overrides the main Activity and Facebook integration also requires that the main Activity be overridden. Check the General section of our Android docs for details.

 

@prime31 I'm trying to Post Message with prime Social and I'm getting:
url: https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed
response error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed

Could you help me?

 

@wmoscon, FileNotFound Exceptions indicate that the web server responded with a 4xx response code. That usually means you have an invalid access token or you did not request publish permissions.

 

Greetings, @prime31

After updating to the last Social Plugin, I've noticed a new entry in the manifest.

<meta-data android:name="com.prime31.FacebookPlugin" android:value="UnityPlayerActivityProxy"/>

It will work if my main activity is that of Unity. But I'm using an activity that overrides the UnityPlayerNativeActivity. What should be the 'android:value' parameter value? Guess this should be set for Flurry entry as well?

Thanks in advance.

 

@dark, Facebook login requires that the main Activity is overridden. Our override Activity is 100% designed to be modular and any other plugin maker can use it by following the instructions here: https://gist.github.com/prime31/0908e6100d7e228f1add

 

Hi @prime31

I have a problem with the the Android Flurry plugin. The problem sound very similar to the problem that was reported from @sathya one week before.
I call the onStartSession methode by the start of my application. And a report will be sent to the flurry server without problems. The Log show "FlurryDataSender: report 78*************e sent. HTTP response: 200 : OK"

But my problem is the calling of the onEndSession methode . I call the methode from the Unity methode OnApplicationQuit(). But the data transfer will be never complet. The Logfile show only "Trying to end session" but this does not go further. I don't see "Ending session" or "FlurryDataSender: report 78*************e sent. HTTP response: 200 : OK" log.

It look like that Unity will kill the process and the collected data will not be sent to Flurry server.

What is wrong? Is there a better place to call the onEndSession methode?

Thanks for your support.

 

@plausch, that is how the plugin works. When you app is quit data will not be sent until the next launch. Note that the comment above the onEndSession method reads as follows: "Ends your Flurry session. This is automatically called for you when your app is backgrounded so unless you have a good reason to call it you should never need to use it directly."

 

I love the modularity of your helper jar, unfortunately it does not work with QCAR's packages, as there is a nasty DLLNotFoundException that pops up.

I created an activity/native activity that extended QCAR's, then hooked each one to a ActivityProxyObjectHelper, and now all is working as intended.

If it would be alright, I'd like to share my solution, as this is a commonly plagued question across both communities. My jar does not contain any of your source, as it calls the class indirectly. I had to package it as com.prime31 because the methods were protected however.

 

@jchilton, Try this: https://gist.github.com/prime31/7683192 Note that this is not something officially supported.

 

Hi,
I found in comment for: EtceteraAndroid.promptForPictureFromAlbum
// Prompts the user to choose an image from the photo album and resizes it to the dimensions passed in. Passing in 0 dimensions will get you a full sized image.

where to pass in dimensions?

 

Thanks for your reply, @prime31.

If I understood, UnityPlayerProxyActivity should be the main activity, and in the line <meta-data android:name="com.yourpackage.yourclass" android:value="UnityPlayerActivityProxy"/>, the 'android:value' must always be the main activity?

My line is this: <meta-data android:name="com.prime31.FacebookPlugin" android:value="BurstlyPluginActivity"/>; being 'BurstlyPluginActiviy' the main one. So, if I wanted to notify the FacebookPlugin with the activity lifeclycle through the BurstlyPluginActivity, that line would be correct, right? If so, this won't help me, and I'll get an exception stating that I attempted to open a session which is already pending for opening.

It is a requirement to have the UnityPlayerProxyActivity as the main one? In my case, as I'm using SkyRocket's Burstly plugin (and, in order to get it work, their BurstlyPluginActivity must be the main one), I can't put the proxy activity as my main one. Perhaps I'm not understanding the syntax of the manifest line?

Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: Nevermind this. I totally forgot that Burstly plugin comes with another class for using with Prime31's plugins altogether. My mistake. Anyway, thanks for your support. Guess I should stick with Burstly first, before coming back to Prime with this issue

 

@dark, just in case you need it in the future, the same Activity override system all of our plugins uses is freely available to hook into for any other plugin vendor or user: https://gist.github.com/prime31/0908e6100d7e228f1add

 

Hi Prime31,
How I can pass size parameters into EtceteraAndroid.promptForPictureFromAlbum() ?
thanks!

 

I am updating the Prime31 Social Networking Android plugin. I can bring up the login dialog, and when I log in it tells me that I have already authorized the app, then I click OK and it returns to the game. It does show the following in the console:

Code (csharp):

1. I/Prime31 ( 1330): FacebookPlugin: openActiveSession.call with state: OPENING, exception: null.

And there is some debate here as to whether this is an error or not. If the exception: null means that there was no exception, or if the exception was that something was null. Anyways, it does not bring up the app request dialog that it was supposed to, and if I tap the button again, I get an error:

Code (csharp):

1. I/Prime31 ( 1330): FacebookPlugin: openActiveSession.call with state: OPENING, exception: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Session: an attempt was made to open a session that has a pending request.

It seems from what I can gather that the session is not being updated from OPENING to OPENED when we return from the login dialog. It's not hitting any of the callback events either (neither sessionOpenedEvent nor loginFailedEvent).

I have observed this behaviour within the test scene, using the Prime31 auto-generated AndroidManifest.xml file built using the tools.

 

Hello,

i have android game in which i am using Prime 31 plugins as follow,
Chartboost (working fine)
In app billing (Woriking fine)

Tapjoy (was working fine) at the end of the day i have integrated the plugin was getting call back events and second day when i restarted the machine and unity i got the following error log in the log cat and was not getting the call back handler message or we can say events like successful awarded coins
Errors i am getting is as follow which i think causing issue ,

Also i have uploaded the detail log at this link http://hastebin.com/bolecololi.coffee

Unity Version i am working on is 4.3.0f4

Android Device i am using is Samsumg Galaxy s2 for testing Current Android OS version is 4.0.3

Current Tapjoy plugin date is 2013-10-17
"Problem is i am not getting the close button at when i press the test event at tapjoy offer wall , also not getting the call back messages and event successful messages "
Thanks and Regards

 

@dhaval, Tapjoy is now closed source so based on the stack trace I can only guess that internally there is a resource issue with the close bitmap. You may want to try deleting all the Tapjoy resources then reimporting the plugin to ensure you don't have any old files in there.

 

Actually i have tried that several times , like i have removed all the things completely.. also , i tried to on the fresh project, integrated the tap joy , but getting the same issue , what about the other issue "com.example.mygame/com.prime31.UnityPlayerNativeActivity (client)' ~ Failed to receive dispatch signal. status=-11 "

 

@dhaval, "Failed to receive dispatch signal" is an entirely normal log.

 

Hey guys,

Has anyone successfully used the Prime31 PlayGameServices plugin on Android 4.4 ?(http://prime31.com/docs#androidPlayGameServices)
It works ok on all other Android OS versions but it freezes the app on Android 4.4 and I get the logs error quoted below.

The weird part is that if I wait for the app to force-close and I try opening it again, PlayGameServices says Welcome UserXXX and it works. But the first time it when you login, it freezes. Also if you cancel the login, it freezes.
Prime31, any feedback buddy?

 

@floky, as of now only one of my many test devices is on 4.4 and it works fine. The only oddity I see in that log is that the Play Activity seems to be trying to take a screenshot and it fails 4 times. There isn't much more information in there.

 

Thanks for the confirmation. It's good enough for me. For now...
Yeah, the screenshot logs are a weird thing from the OS not from my test app. It's like Android 4.4 is trying automatically to make a screenshot whenever an app crashes/freezes so it can prepare a crash report.
The log offers too little info about this weird PlayGameServices freeze.

I'll keep investigating and get back to you if I find something.
Thanks again for the prompt feedback!

 

Hi prime31

I bought the Google Cloud Messaging plugin for Android. I've set up the Google Cloud Console as described in the docs and obtained the project number and API key. I've generated a new manifest (since I'm using other prime31 plugins) and build the demo scene. On my webserver, I've uploaded that sample .php and replaced the API key. The build launches successfully without any errors. I also manage to register successfully. However when I try to call the .php URL to send a message using the following format http://domain.com/GCMSample.php?id=<registrationId>, I get an Unauthorized exception 401 (not that replaced the script with a phpinfo() and it worked without errors from the same URL).

What could be causing this issue? Moreover, if I want to integrate GCM with Urban Airship, what plugin do I have to use for Android? Is it the Etcetera like iOS?

Thanks,
Clayton

 

@clay, the demo PHP script is just meant to be a very rough tester and does not do any error checking at all. You will get a 4xx if any of the information is not correct including the API key or registration Ids.

We have no plugins at this time for UA integration on Android. We are waiting patiently for UA to expose 2 missing endpoints on their REST API which we require for Android push support.

 

Hi prime31,

I've followed the instructions step by step as detailed here. I'm obtaining the API key from this screen



I did the procedure as I mentioned in my previous post and I'm getting the 401 error. I googled around and based on the information provided here it seems that I've got the wrong API key. I'm running the following command on my server

curl --header "Authorization: key=<API_KEY>" --header Content-Type:"application/json" https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send -d "{\"registration_ids\":[\"ABC\"]}"

and the response is the following;

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Unauthorized</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">
<H1>Unauthorized</H1>
<H2>Error 401</H2>
</BODY>
</HTML>

The Google troubleshooting page specifies that "if you receive a 401 HTTP status code, your API key is not valid.".

Could you please indicate what I'm doing wrong and what can I do to set up the GCM properly for my Unity Android app?

Regards,
Clayton

 

Just to point out that I've also registered a web app and tried both the server and browser API keys. Both gave the same 401 error. Note also that I've set the Allowed IP addresses to Any IP address is allowed for now.

 

Solved. I re-generated a server API key and updated that in the PHP script. Now it works. If you could include more information in the documentation regarding the server-side script, that would be better IMHO.

Thanks,
Clayton
