Samsung Galaxy S5, Android 4.4.4
App version 0.0.60
Every time the app looks for SBricks, it adds another ID to the list, but only the ID with the name "SBrick" works, and I presume this is the physical ID of my only unit.
App crashes if you click on buttons that launch dialogs too quickly or too often when they do not respond to the initial press.
I have created my own profile that uses a gamepad controller and a slider. Only the slider works, no matter which ports are assigned to the SBrick.
App crashes often during use.
Just tested the 0.60 version. Clearing cache does seem to help, and playing around with the hand-drawn profile I have a fairly stable operation.
Remarks are however:
Tested on Xiaomi Mi2S Miui 6 (Android 4.4.4)
On my Samsung SM-P600 (note 10.1) I also noticed the following aspects:
So clear improvements, but not there yet...

P.S. And as some other already mentioned, in Android on some browsers, scrolling through the forum does not work well anymore. Used to be ok...
With v0.0.60 my excavator-profile still doesn't work. Now the controll-elements are squeezed horizontally. The further the controll is to the right, the more it's moved to the right.
And everything I touchg when the profile is opened closes the profile again.
In the output-assignment-screen, when i press the picture of the SBrick to test the ports, the app crashes.
I even tried the standard profile with 2 joysticks and 2 sliders: only the sliders work, the joysticks don't do a thing. And whatever settings I try, I can't get the profile to controll the 2 SBricks. I also tried removing the app completely including files and cache as Jürg suggested, but that didn't change anything.

When Androis app, it is important if you installed the 0.0.60 that you, in the settings of the operating system deletes all SBrick data. Important.
Then uninstall the old version and install the new app.
The app will crash the first time. Now you repeat the procedure and deletes all files which relate to the app including cache. Also important to dispense with a background in profile. it worked for me and basically runs stable.

The app should clean itself if the installer does not. Cache should be erased when an update is installed, especialy if it's known that data in cache brings problems. Users should not have to handle that, from my point of view. I know app is in alpha version (after weeks and weeks...), but at least install process should be masterised, no?

hello everybody. i have now tested the whole day, the Android app and the app ios test flight. It runs, although not always stable, but it works. In the Android app, there are only problems if there is a background image in PD is selected, then it Does Not Work in the app. in the IOS app to do it.
Now for all .... I revise my opinion of yesterday and tell the app including PD function for an alpha operation actually pretty neat.
I apologize for my displeasure yesterday at SBrick team. Keep it up and listen to the boys and girls of the comunity.
So it's yet.

Dear Developers
With SBrick you had great idea, your advertisement of "playability" with SBrick were even better, but the reality is now quite bitter.
Thanks to Sylvain CACHEUX I want to say the same as he. I can sign myself under each if his comments and complains!
Think about future of this project which was really well taken and supported by many people.
I guess you will not get many distributors of you product as long it is useless for android users, I would not sell it at all to others at this development stage!
Please put the app in open source, others will do your job with fan, the product will gain functionality and defenitely will increase your sales and reseler numbers.
Think about it before alternative options appear on the market.
regards
Marcin
Mmh.... installed 0.60 on my Asus, good news is that discovery works nearly correctly (sometimes very long discovery, but can be aborted by hitting screen). I was able to discover and test 2 sbricks. Bad news: as soon as I try anything related to profiles, instant crash!
Hello,
Installed 0.0.60. app crashes when deleting the profile applied to a moc (to put another one). Jurgens excavator's profile makes application crashing.
Loading of profiles list and selection of profile is very slow.
Application does not save credentials for profile designer.
New behavior about buttons: when taping to set on, displays is on, but lights are still off. When taping to set it off, displays goes off, and ligths flashes on and remains then off...
Joysticks does not work at all.
Still no slider that keeps position when releasing (which would allow you to remove your finger from screen, so practical when running trains - I tried "auto reset" option, but not working).
When managing to have a profile running, sbrick stops responding after a variable time.
Guys: instead of adding functions, debug the existing ones.
I'm getting less and less patient. If at the end of this month (which will be 2 monthes since we have sbricks in our hands, largely enough to debug an app) we have no communication from developpers with a clear calendar with clear steps for each function debuging, I'll begin a true campaign to tell all what I'm thinking now of sbrick to all french LUGs I know (which makes hundreds of people). You are warned. I'm tired of waiting news, tired of an app still in alpha version with many bugs although reported since more than 1 month while IOS is working well. I just now think that vengit does not care at all of android users. No true communication, no true debuging of the existing functions, addition of functions also bugged, so consideration for people (backers) who allows you to realize your project. 350 € for 8 sbricks not usable (and I'm don't mention the "goodie" I was supposed to have). That's ENOUGH !
As you know, when a bad reputation is done, it's very difficult to get it good. Think about it!
If you have problems, tell them.
If this is beyond your developing skills, then put it in open source!

hello. have the new app 0.0.60 installed and tested. does not work on htc one m8. keeps crashing after approx 1 minute.
app connects not even with sbrick.
I am very very disappointed, have 2 sbrick bought for much money and it does not work. I am now since 2 weeks on tinkering with no visible success. it can not be. what we have paid for all the money for the stones we may also expect something in return. looking from my side of this is very bad advertising for all the superior sbrick to buy.
it also does not use if the app a color update subjects in each release. The developer should focus on the function instead of always replace only the color.
Sorry but this needed to be said now.

Testing the Sbrick simple app v1.5
Samsung Galaxy S3
Android 4.3
Now indeed the discovery is really fast, like 0.1 sec
Connecting take about 2 seconds
BUT, sliders don't work at all....i just can play with slider like 5 minutes, even left slider at max for about 15 or more seconds, and NO engine is moving. And occasionaly one engine moves about 1 sec (like a massive delay). PLEASE can you borrow a S3 and test, S3 is a popular model. This app and the other is still trash, sorry but i start to get a little angry with this purchase.

All the same.
Also can't add profile from PROFILE DESIGNER.

Got the Same problem, it seems it works only whit IOs... very sad
Me too....
I was creating a lot of Profils, but even wenn i update a Profile whit a new function it will not update by downloading the Profile again. I can´t put the functions to the Brick. I mean in the Brick adujst there are no functions, can´t see them. And when i delete a Profile and then named the new one exactly the same as the first one it will not properly function in the App. So please SBrick Developer Team work harder .. And create an App and DP whit no errors!!!!!!
Dear developers,
I was very, very patient for 2 months, tried every update but now I started to be very angry.
I had have no android 4.3+ device in December, but for 1 month I have a tablet with kitkat 4.4. When I start the app it has blank screen, I can see only menus, can select menus, but the inner screen is still empty. The tablet can see the brick, but I can't do anything, because no feedback.
The tablet is an intel x86 device with 1024x768 screen.
Thanks
I fogot this one but I think it is working with ios
