Is it possible to disable android studio generating its own files? - android

I wanted to know if its possible to disable the files android studio generates for example
"value v11" and more and also value's with translated strings and android's useless drawable and strings I didn't put in.

Those files are required. There is no way to disable that. And without them your app wont function properly (on all devices and api levels).

Modifying shortcuts for Android emulator

Is there a way to modify the default shortcuts used by the Android emulator? The help shows the fixed set of keys we can use, but doesn't seem to provide a way to change them.

For Xamarin.Forms localization, do I need to implement ILocalize?

In Xamarin help page https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/localization/text?tabs=windows, for "Displaying the Correct Language", it suggests to define interface ILocalize then use DependencyService to get some locale info.
However, My Xamarin.Forms Android app could just pick the right language resource file according to the locale settings of the device, and display rightful language.
So translations are working fine without ILocalize and the implementations. Do I really need ILocalize and the implementations?
No need of DependencyService, Xamarin.Forms automatically recognizes it and gets the appropriate resource file. Docs needs to be updated, an issue was opened for the same

Reformating code creates a new build

I often modify spaces, statement alignments and tabulations manually instead of using CTRL+ALT+L for formating my code. Then, it takes a long time to launch my app because Android Studio creating a new build even if the code itself is the same.
Is there a way to change this setting ?
Android Studio compiles any file when it changes. Even if the change is just in formatting, it will be recompiled. I suggest that you make sure the formatting is the way you want it when you write the code to begin with. Android Studio is very good at helping you with this by automatically indenting when it deems it appropriate. Don't fight against Android Studio's default behaviors -- or else configure Android Studio to the formatting settings you wish to use.

is it possible to create an android 1.5.1 app using Android Studio?

is it possible to create an Android 1.5.1 app using Android Studio?
Yes it is old but still used...
It only has to read 3 different txt files which are located on local network, containing 1 line of text each and display it under each other in portrait view.
Refresh ones a minute should be ok.
And it has to have a dropdown menu so you can choose which number of device it is, so from 1-10 is ok and according that read the txt files which belongs to that device nr.
I can't use a webpage because i cannot create a local server for it. So i need a little app.
To create the txt files i use a windows program.
I use Livecode (since short) but it can't create apps below Android froyo 2.2.
Any help on this would be highly appreciated. As i don't know anything about java.
It's only for local use, nothing commercial or anything
Thanks for any help on this!
You should try using PhoneGap (Cordova) http://phonegap.com which is basically a HTML-Webview, wrapped up in an App, so you can code the whole thing using JavaScript, and it is still a real app.
With this it should be very easy to do that, even if you "don't speak Java".
But to answer your initial question, yes it should be possible to create an Android App for 1.5.1 with Android Studio. You just need to install the right SDK/Packages etc with the SDK Manager.
Have fun coding.

App Generator on Android

I want to develop an app which will create another Android app as output.
So my question is, whether this thing is possible in Android?
I got one PC software called "App Inventor" which takes data from user and give .apk file as
output,which can be installed in Android device.
This same thing my app should do on Android device.
Can any one give any ideas regarding this?
So my question is, whether this thing is possible in Android?
An Android app can generate text files. These text files may represent Java source code, layout XML, etc. However, an Android app cannot run a Java compiler or the Android tool chain.
