so after some tries i finally managed to update my two sbricks and made them work properly with the software!
here is, what I have done:
disconnected all motors and lights from the sbricks (I discovered that when I have motors connected during update, all motors would turn all the time - which seems strange to me).
started the sbrick, started the app. got right to "manage bricks" and made an OTA-Update. After the message, that download completed, I turned off sbrick and the app on my phone, turned off bluetooth.
and after that it finally worked!
I use the app-version 1.3 on a Galaxy S5 mini.

This does not work for me :( My Sbrick is a brick.
C'mon guys.. I have my Sbrick for 5 months now and I haven't been able to do anything with it..
Hi all, just had an opportunity to see the iOS app running on an iPad. The Android app is a real shame that cannot be compared to the Apple development.
IMHO, you guys should really consider using another development tool, there is no reason why the two apps should be so different!!!
We all know the technical differences between the two environments : Apple is 100% consistent and under control, with a very limited number of configurations. Android is a jungle where every device has its own version of hardware components and OS version.
Yet, there are thousands of Android apps that work and are identical to their iOS version : just take the Lego official games for example.
So either you don't have the right tools, either you don't have the right methodology.
FYI, I'm an IT professional and I would not accept such a poor quality in my professional environment.

Put the sbrick in the corner some weeks ago. Today i updated to 1.3 on my s4 mini, with every app start it's recommended to update the firmware.
Nothing works, only with simple control i can test the ports. I think i have to go back to 0.8, it was better, despite occasional app crashing.
In summary i have to say: very bad job, app still in beta state
My suggestions:
- Make it open source an the community will give us a working app or
- sell the project to LEGO and let them develop a working app or
- finally work together with professional software developers

Tonight it works. I did update my phone to 5.1 today but don't know if that had something to do with it. Now both 1.3 app and simple app works. (The third slider in simple app seems to be connected to the b-port).
0.26 version port tester still stops after two seconds. Reason for using 0.26 app is because the sliders don't auto reset. Is it possible to add a reset button in the profile designer?
I have the same problem. I have updated the firmware with app version 1.3
The led is always on now. No response when using the port tester. Same problem with SBrcik Simple App.
When using the port tester in app version 0.26 I get response for like 2 seconds then it interrupts. Is a timeout added in the new firmware?
Had 0.26 port tester running for a display this weekend without problem.
What logs do you need to investigate?
Edit: It works with an iPhone. My other not upgraded SBrick works with the Simple app.
I have a weird bug on my LG G3s.
whenever i create a profile using the profile designer and set one of my joysticks to 45 degrees (to use it with a Skid loader) it does not show up as rotated on my phone.
why can't i have a rotated joystick on my android phone when it works flawlessly on my iPad 4th gen?

We'll release a new version on this thursday:
- ota improvements (+bug fixing)
- ota success check
- one function two ports on the same brick

Back from holidays. I tested one function two multiple ports works fine one the same brick or on 3 bricks (I was unable to test more...)
I was able to control 4xM, 2xL and 2xXL. There is just a little bug : all the motors does not start at the same time
Since the firmware and app update when I go to use the motors the SBrick disconnects after a couple of seconds. I have tried this with two seperate SBricks and it does the same thing.

Frederic : thank you very much, but i mean update from v1.1 to v1.3 in sbrick firmware?
[/blockquote]
You mean the App V 1.3. The you get in Google Play Store.

Redo the pairing? You mean like restart the app and connect to the Sbrick again?
[/blockquote]
Hi Anton, I think it refers to the standard bluetooth devices pairing : when you activate the Bluetooth function on your phone/tablet, the device scans for other bluetooth-enabled devices around you. You can then select which devices will be interconnected with your phone.
Just do that in a railway station at 5:00PM to see what will happen ;)
As for me : just upgraded to 1.3 (finally), I confirm that the B-C inverters now work fine. No crash so far, but I used it a few moments only.

I also have Sony Xperia Z2 with 5.02 and noticed that you sometime need to redo the bluetooth pairing with the Sbrick, i.e. it is not enough to just turn the bluetooth on and off.

Hi
I have some problems with the connection to the Sbrick.
My phone: Sony Xperia Z2 with Android (lolipop) 5.0.2
I can Connect to the Sbrick, and I've done the firmware update. The problem is that neither any profiles or the port tester work.
I have all cables connected and everything is fine, so it should work...
Please help!

I have already tried everything, more than once. :(
