I got 2 SBricks as part of the KickStarter campaign. At the time, the Android app was crap, so I basically put them aside and haven't used the SBricks since (feeling that they were a waste of money until a usable app was available).
I recently decided to try and give the SBrick another go. I downloaded the lastest version from the Google App Store. When it loads it now shows a screen that says "Thank you for downloading SBrick. Now you will see a short tutorial about how to use the application. Swipe left".
In theory, this sounds great, because the old app was not very intuitive, so some sort of tutorial is welcome.
However, the App won't let me swipe left as directed. It won't let me swipe in any direction. I just see that same into to the tutorial screen the entire time.
So, from my point-of-view, the app is still crap. How am I supposed to use the app if I can't get past the tutorial?
Sorry if this has been covered before... I haven't read through the entire 43 pages in this topic yet.

Hi,
What kind of device do you use? I forward this issue to our developers. :)
Soon we will post some tutorial videos, it may help. :)

Haha. Just tried that too. Yes, for some reason swiping in tutorial works awful. I got it working by swiping from center of screen, 1 in 5 swipes actually changes page.
Try that, because app (if it works for you) is really great now. For my purposes, it covers all functionality I need.
If swiping works, don't forget to uncheck checkbox at the end, to skip this "fun" next time. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the information! :)

When will finally have a working version for the Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9515 and
LIFETAB S8312 published?
Any other Bluetooth application works with these devices properly.
[/blockquote]
Hello Karl,
Have you tried the simple control application? (You can download it from Google play)
What is your exact problem with the 2.0.2 version? Did your device find the Sbrick or where does it stuck?
In the next week we will test a new driver, that hopefully solve this problem. But till the new update there is 2-3 weeks, so we should ask for some patience.
Fortunately, on most of the devices it works, we are sorry that on your device it doesen't. We do our best to fix this isuse as soon as possible.
Thanks for your patience,

Got 2 Sbricks today and tested with 2 Android devices (both on 5.1.1)
- Nexus 4 -> Doesn't work. App says it's connected but nothing happens when I turn a slider or something.
- Nvidia Shield K1 -> Works without any problems. Don't even have to pair the SBrick ;-)
[/blockquote]
Hi,
Which firmware version do you have? The newest is 4.8. If you have an older version you have to update it.

my prob is the app cant see th sbrick at all only the simple controller app works to update the firmware other than that its not working..
[/blockquote]
Did you try to pair the SBrick first?
- Reset all bluettoth services, apss, etc...
- Deactivate and reactivate the Bluetooth
- Check if the phone sees the SBrick and pair it
- Go in the app and check if it sees the SBrick
[/blockquote]
I tried all that also the phone would pair with the sbrick but disconnects immediately.

apparently i tried on my buddy's xiaomi phone on android 4.4 and it works perfectly.. so i suspect its the app
[/blockquote]
I have observed similar situations after receiving my new Sbrick (replacing the older faulty one).
- I have a Sony Xperia (Lollipop) and an older Galaxy Note (Kit-Kat)
- Both could see the SBrick, but the Sony couldn't connect nor update the firmware
- I managed to update the firmware with the Simple Controller App on the Galaxy Note
- I had to pair the SBrick on the the Xperia before it could work with app v2.0
- Everything went fine after that, I can even connect to both SBrick at the same time or one by one (the app v2 is great for that)
All in all, it works perfecly, only the firmware update was a bit difficult (yet possible).

Hi,
We check out what could be wrong.
On most of the android phones the application works fine, but there are some device on which for some reason it doesen't.
We are working on solving this problem.
We should ask for your patience,

Yesterday I updated my SBrick app and now it does not function good anymore!!!!
App version v2.0.2
Firmware version 8
Hardware version 4
Android 5.1.1
Samsung neo 5
Sometimes I have to start a profile I few times before the SBrick responds although it is connected! And then it works but when I want to use a profile white more than 1 SBrick only 1 works and I can see that it is connected with the other ones but they do not respond.
When I test the bricks they work perfectly, but when I open a profile then I get the problem as mentioned.
My conclusion is there is nothing wrong with my phone or SBricks but there is something wrong within the app.
What to do to solve the problem?????????
I already tried a lot to solve it, I tried all the suggestions mentioned here on this forum but they do not work!

from the 1.6.1 ap i saw that the hardwere is the 4.3 and the softwere the 4.3, it works but not really good (the profile joystick look a little bit oval and button output values seems not to work) but when i download the newer app and i click on "sbricks" it does not show mine also if it is paired and works with the older one before (i have disistalled it). now i'm trying with my ipod 5th gen
EDIT with the 3.13 build 509 app on my ipod all works great, i think the problem is in the in-app pairing method of the android version
[/blockquote]
Hi,
We don't support 1.6 anymore. We try to develop 2.0.2 further.
Those who cannot use it by now, we should ask for patience, soon we will fix it.
Till that time you can use 1.6.
