[SOLVED by the miracle] strange iPhone5 issue

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

hi all,

today i’ve managed to get my hands on a iPhone5 of a friend.
i wanted to test both my game updates (both work fine in the simulator).

on the real device, one was working as it should. the other one, with same config file etc. did still show up in the iPhone4 resolution. the only difference was that the one working was a new install and the other game has already been installed before. can this cause the issue? i guess not! anyone else had a similar issue? how comes corona simulator is all fine for both, but only one is ok on the phone?

thanks! [import]uid: 90610 topic_id: 33430 reply_id: 333430[/import]

I’m not aware of any issues with updating an existing app. My first observation would be to ask if your Default-568h@2x.png file is really named that. If you copied the name from the blog post, the dash was converted along the way to an N-Dash and not an ASCII hyphen. I know Naomi ran into that problem and it frustrated her.

Also make sure that file has the right filename case too since devices are case sensitive but your Mac is not. That is: default-568h@2x.png won’t trigger tall mode on the iPhone 5. And both are subtle differences between the two that might have gotten overlooked.

Rob, you are a miracle!!

That was exactly the issue. I once had Default-568@2x.png…forgot the h!

you saved my day, thanks a lot! [import]uid: 90610 topic_id: 33430 reply_id: 132881[/import]

I sent my app to Apple for approval without the h in that file name (am not pointing fingers but Coronas blog post had the h missing!).

Couldn’t work out why it still had black bars on the iPhone 5 after being approved :frowning:

hey dave, this has exactly been my issue. also i’ve found somewhere in the blog the h has been missing. I just realised that xcode simulator would have told me that something is wrong… I’ve just used the corona simulator, so its a bit my mistake too!

and sorry for your update (I gladly could reject the binary) [import]uid: 90610 topic_id: 33430 reply_id: 132906[/import]
