Occasionally I get the following exception while using the library:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: IAB helper is not set up. Can't perform operation: launchPurchaseFlow at org.sufficientlysecure.donations.google.util.IabHelper.checkSetupDone(IabHelper.java:781) at org.sufficientlysecure.donations.google.util.IabHelper.launchPurchaseFlow(IabHelper.java:371) at org.sufficientlysecure.donations.DonationsFragment.donateGoogleOnClick(DonationsFragment.java:345) at org.sufficientlysecure.donations.DonationsFragment$1.onClick(DonationsFragment.java:218) at android.view.View.performClick(View.java:4439) at android.widget.Button.performClick(Button.java:148) at android.view.View$PerformClick.run(View.java:18395) at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:725) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:176) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5319) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:1102) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:869) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)

Hi, it seems that with the PayPal official app installed, when prompted to choose a "browser", if you click on it, the PayPal app redirects anyway to the browser but the page gets a 404 error. Instead, if you choose a browser in the app chooser, the link works and one can log in and make the donation.

This seems like a good addition to the donations lib. If you think so too, feel free to test and add it (I added it to a different project myself, but may have accidentally forgot to copy some part).

Hi,

the readme of this library states that one should create unmanaged products in the developer console. However, i read that since billing v3 only managed products are available? Is this a bug in the readme or am i missing something?

thanks matthias

Sorry for not following translation project but transifex link seems to be down.

Recently I commented in the issue #15 because this error is happening again.

I managed to solve it by doing this trick, but the latest version of the lib was not managing it: (as the code is a bit longer, I will add a PasteBin for better visualization):

@dschuermann Sorry to post msg at this project, It is because the libnl-3-android project(https://github.com/dschuermann/libnl-3-android) do not have issues module.

I have a project https://github.com/imlinhao/android-iw-libnl3/issues/1 that depends on the libnl-3-android project, but because of the version update of ubuntu and android ndk, there be some problems of the project.

I want to know whether you have some blogs of how to porting libnl to android, or maybe update the libnl-3-android project using the newly libnl and newly compile tool like ubuntu 14.04 and android ndk 10c.

Thank you very much, and you can contact me at [email protected].

Hi,

I downloaded the App FasterGPS and have a look on donation page. However, there is not more paypal donation, only google play? I wonder why. thanks!

donations__google_android_market_promt_array should be configurable as donations__google_catalog so it should not be the donations__google_android_market_promt_array in lib resources but a string-array name d donations__google_catalog_labels in donations__config.xml then:

        // choose donation amount
        mGoogleSpinner = (Spinner) getActivity().findViewById(
                R.id.donations__google_android_market_spinner);
        int nameResourceID = getActivity().getResources().getIdentifier("donations__google_catalog_labels", "array",
            getActivity().getApplicationInfo().packageName);

        ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(getActivity(),
            nameResourceID,
                android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);

Hi, I just want to make sure before I used this library for donation purpose inside my app since I've read reddit and stackoverflow threads talking about their app got rejected/banned because having donation button which not used google IAP. Thanks

I've just tried to release a new version of my app, but Google changed something that requires a new billing API since the first of November 2021: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2020/06/meet-google-play-billing-library.html

Can you update your library to support this new billing api?

I used to have a paypal option in my apps, reading the google support information they say that web cannot open a Paypal link a WebBrowser requesting for donations because can be used for tricking user to donate an amount they don't agree with. So, after some days trying I figured a way around.

Easy instead of launching Paypal Fragment to manage Paypal just command your app to open the phone default WebBrowser in your paypal.me link. I'll leave an example below.

Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://paypal.me/juanjshb"));
startActivity(browserIntent);

Hope it help. It works for me

In some languages the string resource donations__description doesn't break correctly caused by backslash escape of the "\n" control character. Example:

For politeness the exclamation mark should be removed from the button in all translations. No one want's to be talked to in imperative. "DONATE!" they will not.
