Hi,
Not solving either the button swicht off problem... (v0.0.41 on samsung galaxy note II with Android 4.4.2)

Same here. The SBrick software version is still 0.0.41.
And it still can't discover the brick with my Op3n Dott tablet. The tablet has Intel SoC, I'm starting to think that this might be a problem.
New app version did't solve problem of using two outputs for one function. If we assign same function for two or more outputs - only one motor will work.
For all I know - this is not new problem, people said about that about month ago. Should we hope that developers will undertake something soon?
I think you can find here some guys who can help you.
But I think you should first try to solve connections problems before adding new fuctions.
I also think you should release more versions to let us help you to see if fixes works.
If I agree about we need profile designer, I think you should add other functions before like using more than one SBrick to be able to use the 42009S or the ultimate version (for me I also would like to be able to control 2 channels with the same slider
I think I can wait to have a full working version but I do need to see some progress...
Thank you

I have the same "long" delay. Especially when using steering control or two ports.
When the slider quickly move in different directions, for example 20 times, brick continues to perform these commands for 15-20 seconds.
Several times the application was closed itself.
Inversion of ports does not always work (if on/off is the inversion).

Was this promlem solved? This delay limits the using of sbrick very much.
yeah Lénárd, i can provide such on nexus 5 & 9, perfect for lollipop testing. just define what you need.

Dear Developer Team
As a customer (I bought sbrick after the kickstarter campaign) I ask you very curiously, when do you plan to correct the basic functions of the sbrick android application, like:

Yes, we are in a big delay with the android app (and windows phone too).
Tomorrow we going to release a new alpha from the android app. I hope it solves all the problems that you mentioned.
Unfortunately we don't have a wide range of android devices to test with. This is why the community support so important for us to make better SBrick apps.

To complete my previous post, here is an alternative to Sbrick that seems to be better, in terms of number of controlable motors, and especialy in terms of Android application (weirdy, they are developing the way I suggested...).

Will VengIT stop doing social facebook (at least for a while) and greatly improve their android app, or will they let this other project take their customers?

Developers: please communicate!!!

Do you mean this link??? "Version v0.26 is available at http://sbrick.com/apk/SBrick_0026.apk"
It's where I got v0.26 from and, just to check, I've just downloaded another copy. Works for me.
For those struggling with using a Samsung Galaxy S3 I have found (thanks to a lot of help from Jorge Pereira) that using v0.26 of the Android app gives some comtrol of your Sbricks.
It's not perfect but at least you'll be able to do something. Version v0.26 is available at http://sbrick.com/apk/SBrick_0026.apk
Hello,
I suddenly have problems with the SBrick app. Now SBrick is no longer recognized.
The problem is when
Samsung Galaxy S4 mini Android 4.4.2 Bluetooth 4.0 and
HTC One S Android 4.4.4 (CyanogenMod) Bluetooth 4.0
The problem occurred after SBrick has been updated.
What can I do?
best regards
Tanja
Hi Sylvain,
Give me a email, and I will sow some solution......nikolausp55@web.de

There is not much communication towards the ones not chosen, so following is my educated guess
If you can open files in sdcard/Android/data/com.vengit.sbrick/jsons (I use ES File Explorer) you can see a representation of a profile.
Each control has type (slider etc), position & size, graphics and channel name - the last one is for Example "Slider 1", "Steering"... this it the name we can assign to the linked Sbrick.
My idea of Profile editor is that you will be able to place these control types, position & resize them, maybe skin them and most importantly name them.
So one could place 8 controls, name them "Train 1" to "Train 8", open first linked SBrick and ad A to D Train 1 to 4 and open second Sbrick and add to A to D channel Train 5 to 8...

Ok, but when? No news of development. I understand people loosing their nerves by always showing the wonderful sbrick to friends, but... impossible to use it correctly, or to use it the way they should, always saying friends "well, it's alpha version"... since... hu... weeks and weeks.
You want a profile designer on a laptop? Cool, peolple will need to buy a PC and take it with them. One thing more in Sbrick's disadvantages (need PC to be able to customize if you don't want to browse tons of profiles). I regret I can not present the app I was telling you about earlier. A true example of a great interface.
As a matter of fact, I've no choice but to wait and, one day, do with what you have decided. I can be comprehensive, but for such a project (meaning associating people/backers), I'm a bit disapointed not to have significant news about development (although we had about sbrick hw dev). Someone else was telling that vengit is redesigning a facebook instead of a good app (meaning working, and answering customers wishes). I'm begining to agree although I was most of a comprehensive guy. More than one month since we received Sbrick, and? What are the progress? Is there any kind of good news or indications about the development to progress, any calendar? Nothing, as far as I see. Even the buttons in profils can still not switch off a light once lighted on. Android is the poor parent for Sbrick. As nothing come, I'm begining to believe that there is nothing to come, and that's a shame, especialy for people like me, who could be a relay of Sbrick advertisement in their LUG/community.
I still hope, but it would be nice to have some good news soon.
Today it snowed......like most winters.
Yes, I agree....not much to do with SBrick support, like I am starting to feel we don't get and never will.....the support.
Since I wrote a rather frustrated post here, several have shined a light upon the non working SBrick. makes me happy that it seems like my SBrick is ok....! But, what is frustrating me more and more is the following:
- new videos of how users create wonderfull Lego creations with SBrick built in....and it works???!!!??? How??? When everyones SBrick does not...how do theirs??
- That it does not require a Lego enthusiast to play with the SBrick, but more like a member from Scorpion with a 150+ iq...!!?? Not what I expected...but happy to learn every day, but dind't buy a app lesson or programming lesson....I bought a SBrick, that should be able to control my Lego, but is just a big 4x4x3 brick.
- That it is not an Android issue....it is the same with an Iphone.....I can say this, as I bought a Iphone 4 just to be able to contorl the (S)Brick.....but still just sitting with a big (S)Brick in my hand.....
I know this is a kickstarter project, but beeing the first I support, it hasn't been the last (supported nxt-monsters Mini-zip (9v battery addapter for powerfunctions)) But this has made me realize that supporting complex ideas might not be the best solution......I mean if in a year or two, if I heard of a SBrick that was so an so great.....and when purchased it just works......then I would be impressed and happy about my purchase.....not so much atm...!! peace
