Crash on start

new ARMv7 devices are a bit dear, so ARMv6 devices are used by a lot of people here, as they are quite affordable and good.

I have an app created for a client that worked fine on the iPhone, but due to the cost of deployment with several devices, they have decided to go the Android path.

So, I had to take up an earlier build to get it working. The issue is that the moment it is installed, it gives an error that the app stopped responding and hence has been closed forcefully. in short CRASH!!

How can I get the app that works perfectly fine in the Corona Simulator and on the iPhone (simulator and device) to actually work on the Android 2.2 device with an ARMv6?

Is there any setting in the build.settings file? or what?

OK!! Resolved, knew it was something easy. Had to go in a very round about way to fix it though.

the issue is one line that said

local thisDevice = system.getInfo("deviceID")

This requires that one set the READ_PHONE_STATE in build.settings :frowning:

in case you want to know how I found that, I will write an article on Howto soon.

Don’t quote me on this but I think there’s a short window after creating a post to edit/delete it? Maybe. (That’s how I normally see forums do it.)

What comment do you want deleted? #2? [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 16059 reply_id: 59694[/import]

SuperMario --> Peach, that now makes sense :wink:

Earlier there used to be a delete option where I could (as the author) of the thread delete even the thread. But now there is no such option. So What I wanted to delete, I have edited with the message. It was the last one before your reply.

I wont ask where you thought the name originally came from as I’m well aware of what kind of stereotypes might have such names ^-^;

There is a small issue at the moment regarding forum permissions but that should be sorted soon. I am not certain if it is why you can no longer delete, but perhaps so.
