Trusted ID Enhanced Identity Theft Protection

The following is a sponsored review.

Identity theft is something that one does not want to get involved with. Usually, when it happens, it happens when you least expect it. Heck, I do not want to be in anyone’s shoes whose identity has been stolen.

To protect yourself, IDEssentials from TrustedID has provided a service that aims to counter such threat. They deliver an enhanced identity theft protection system that helps to shield people’s credit and helps detect and stop identity theft before it happens.

Plans are available for both individuals and families catering to theft protection.

Trusted ID makes it easy and affordable to protect yourself and your family by combining advanced credit monitoring services with comprehensive, proactive identity theft protection.

They have so many features that are beneficial to one’s identity protection like the daily credit monitoring where it alerts the user to fraud, instant access to one’s credit report and score, an easy to understand Identity Threat Score, medical benefits monitoring and scanning of black market Internet areas.

All plans are backed by a $1,000,000 service warranty and on-call protection specialists, so you can have peace of mind. Now, with features as rich as these, I would say these plans are pretty sweet deals.

How To Get Resource Id Dynamically In Android

In Android, we normally use the R class in order to gain access to the drawable, layout, string (and others) variables.

I made this helper method to get a resource id dynamically. However, if you have no need for this, it is a better option to use the R class directly as the search operation is quicker compared to this.

public static int getResId(String variableName, Context context, Class<?> c) {
    try {
        Field idField = c.getDeclaredField(variableName);
        return idField.getInt(idField);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return -1;
    } 
}

Let us say, you have an XML file named help.xml in your res/layout/ folder. To use the method, do it like this.

getRestId("help", this, R.layout.class);
