    Hi sbrick team and owners

     

    Last week end i had to change my phone. my old windows phone was broken and i finally choose a sony xperia E5 android.

    Now i tried again and again to make it work with my sbrick.

    No problem to couple it with the phone but no way to found it with the sbrick app...I tried  many times coupling uncoupling run the app but no result at all ...

    maybe If it's a firmaware problem but I can't update the sbrick firmware without the app and i don't know how to do to make it available for the app...Is someone has any advice or solutions ....

    Dear Andre,

    If you experienced any problem with our new (4.2.1 beta) app, then please go to your device's bluetooth settings menu, and unpair your device and your sbrick. If after the unapairing any bugs or issues still persists, please contact us again.

    Hello Francesco,

    the documentation had an error, the ADC channel numbering changed after version 14.

    The battery reading is on channel 8, the temperature is on 9.

    The full list of channels can be read in the updated documentation: https://social.sbrick.com/wiki/view/pageId/11/slug/the-sbrick-ble-protocol . See section "SBrick Data Records", record 06 "Voltage measurement".

    [/blockquote]

    Yes! This is what I needed! :D Thanks ;)

    I joined the Beta program, downloaded the App and updated the firmware but is still the v17 with the volt/temp bug... :(

    Thanks, I've opted-in for the beta test program. It should be especially interesting to me, as the previous beta version (whose APK link was published in this topic) works fine with my Sony Xperia Z1 Compact (Android 5.1.1), but my NVidia SHIELD Tablet K1 (Android 6.0.1) can't recognise that there's an SBrick connected.

    I imagined there was a new protocol! ;) Thanks!

    Well, actually is the same of before...the data returned is always 0.

    0F Query ADC
    0F < ADC channel ID, 00 or 0e >

    The ADC channels are read at every 2 seconds. These values are stored
    in variables, and this query simply reads those variables. Because of
    this, ADC data can be up to 2 seconds old.

    Temperature can be read on channel 0x0E, voltage on 0x00.

    Return:
    2 byte, little endian, 12 bit resolution ADC reading on given channel.
    Value is stored MSB. (Must be divided by 16)

    All ADC channels are using the internal 1.24V reference.

    The PSU voltage is dropped through a 10:1 voltage divider.
    VPSU = (ADC * 0.83875) / 2047.0

    Temperature can be calculated as: celsius = ADC / 118.85795 - 160
    Where 160 is an offset

    Pairing it and unpairing it made it working! :D So it was a cache problem I suppose.

    I've the FW 17 and I just sent a report about these problems:

    1. the Android app doesn't connect anymore (but the Sbrick iOS app and the Simple Control app work fine), it stays in loop while connecting (but seems to read the SBrick infos).

    2. I cannot retrieve anymore Voltage and Temperature with the commands in the protocol 4.8 page, but iOS and Android apps seem to read them fine, except the Simple Control app:

     

    Hope to get a fix soon! :(

    Hello again! 

    We ask you to try out to connect with the help of these steps. 

    1. Please use Wi-fi connection with the SBrick app. 

    2. Restart your phone, than the application and the Bluetooth on the device. 

    3. If these did not solve the problem, please Pair, than unpair the SBrick in the Bluetooth system of the Android device. 

    If none of these will work, please contact us again.

    Best wishes,

    Dear Jean, 

    We have a little bug with the firmware update function in the application. (If everything goes right, on the next week we will release an update with a bug fix, considering this problem.)

    It means that, if you had an older firmware version that 12, in the past, now you won't be able to update it via the new app. 

    You has to download our simple control application, and update your SBricks with the help of that. 

    Here you can find it (it is only available for android devices)

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vengit.blecontrol&hl=en

    If you updated the SBricks firmware with this app, you will be able to use it with the original one, both with android and IOS devices. 

    If you have any other questions feel free to ask. 

    Best wishes,

    Balint

    Hi all, Today I tried to connect my 2 sbrick bought since the first campaign on kickstarter and can't use them. The app ask a firmware update but the sbrick didn't won't coz firmware is too old. Same message on iOS or android. Since this, can't use them and no answer.

     

    Edit : Find the solution alone .... Used an app called "Sbrick Simple Control" and do a firmware update. After that all is operationnal and work.
