Hi
I just got my Sbrick today, connected to the 8070 set to test it, and nothing happens, when the SBrick APP seraches for the SBrick it cant find it, just as in Mustafas video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSuDW-FcJl0&feature=youtu.be.
I'm using a Sony Xperia M, Android ver. 4.3, SBrick App ver.: 2.0 Update 2.
Hope we can get a solution to this as fast as possible.
Regards
Felipe

Hello,

Although Sbrick is turned on and green light is blink on it, as soon as I try to ad new creation, revert back a msg on the screen "Please turn on the SBrick!"...
what is the reason?
could you please help me.

[/blockquote] Thanks for your response... However I still need more help... As soon sa I opened the package and installed it into my lego car, I did exactly as what you sad below... But nothing happened.... only a message pop-up saying I have newer hardware than the version of App[/blockquote]
You got the message because you have the newest firmware, so you won't be able to update it.
What exact compatibility problems did you have? Could you give us more information about it?
Balint
[/blockquote] Thanks! Now I understand that firmware update is not necessary for mine. Thus, problems in my SBRICK are not relevant to the F/W version. Three major problems are... -. Abrupt exit of android application: During normal operation, my app. suddenly exits and it should be restarted... -. Even though app. starts without exception and my own model is loaded successfully, SBRICK does not respond to my control... I can recover it by reloading the model repeatedly, or running control pannel and testing a channel. -. While running, SBRICK halts...temporally uncontrollable with my smartphone. I guess this problem is somewhat related to Bluetooth coverage or power density from baterry box.... Thanks.[/blockquote]
Hello!
Yes, you are right, it won't necessary. :)
This abrupts are seems a special issue, please try to reinstal the application first.
Low battery box could also be a problem, so please try to charge your batteries.
If these won't work, please contact us again, and we will help you, don't worry. :)
I hope i could helped to you.

[/blockquote] It turned out that the abrupt termination I mentioned above is not related to the shortage of power supply form my baterry box. Even with full capacity, the same problem remains. I also tried my App. re-installation, however, nothing changed at all. I guess this problem may be caused by the channel configuration, where two PF motors are connected to one channel port among 4 ports supported by a SBRICK. Can you show me what would happen when more than two XL motors are connected to a SBRICK channel and the current over 2A flows through the channel port.... supposing two XL motors are highly loaded and need more than 1A, respectively. I wondere if this problem could be solved when I seperate two PF motors into two SBRICK channels to avoid current limit in SBRICK channel port. [/blockquote]
Hello!
I forwarded your problem to our developers. They will check it out, what could be wrong.
We ask for your patience. :) May I ask you what kind of phone do you use?

Got 2 Sbricks today and tested with 2 Android devices (both on 5.1.1)

Hi,
Which firmware version do you have? The newest is 4.8. If you have an older version you have to update it.

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. Installed the newest firmware.
The Nexus 4 now works with the 'Simple control' app but not with the normal SBrick app.

@ -= Lynx =- - thanks for the tip. I played around a bit more and found the following:
@ Balint Mezei - I am using a HTC One running Android 5.0.2
Now... I am in the App proper, but all of my profiles and creations from before I upgraded have disappeared. Is this normal? Each time I update the App, do I have to set-up everything all over again? What is the incentive to update if I'm going to lose all my configurations each time?
I understand the SBrick and App have some advantages over the Lego PF IR controls (when they work), but the Lego PF IR controls have one huge advantage: THEY WORK! You insert the batteries into your creation and remotes, turn them on, and they work. I don't want to have to play around with dodgy Apps each time I want to control my creations, and so far the SBrick and App have been much too unreliable.
I have now lost interest in the SBrick once again. Maybe I'll try again in another year.

Hello!
Thank you for sharing this information with us.
We are working on the new application continuously.
With it you won't need to set all the things from the start.

Hi guys,
I designed a profile for the Lucio Crashtender, just like he made in his instructions. My S-Brick app on my telephone (Sony Xperia Z1) says I have to choose a 16:9, so I did. So I made a profile, just like Lucio described. When I use the app, I can choose public profiles but not my own designed profile. It doesn't appear in my profile list. I already made another one like the first one but i still cannot see it on the telephone. I saved my work at the https://designer.sbrick.com/ so I can see the 2 profiles any time when I log in on to the site.
The S-Brick is working because when I choose for example the "Hand drawn driving controls v3.2, the light button is working and some of the lights on the crashtender are working.
So I'm wondering what I do wrong, the S-Brick is actived, the phone-app is working and updated.
Can you help me?

Hello!
How many account do you have?
We think that the problem could be that you use another account in your application and in the Profile Designer (at the same time in this site.)
Please check this, if we were wrong, please write us at info@sbrick.com
