    Update on my testing today with the beta app.  Okay, I am now able to use the social login - yay!  I can now use a custom profile I created with SBrick Designer from before. 
    Interestingly, when I test using one of My Creations, I lose connectivity about 10-15 feet away consistently.  If I use the basic control option (same place where you can update the firmware), I was able to control the SBrick 25-35 feet away.  I did this many times with the same results to eliminate the chance factor.  Is there a difference in the code that communicates with the SBrick between the two?  Again, I'm running Galaxy S6, Android 5.1.1 with firmware 4.4 on the SBrick.
    Also, minor thing on the My SBrick menu option, the Firmware Version and Hardware Version fields at the top do not show anything.  Should be 4.4 and 4.0 respectively.

    Awesome!  I did some testing with the new app and I'm able to control the SBrick from far distances 25-50ft without losing connectivity or crashing the app with over 30 minutes of testing.  I am running a Samsung Galaxy S6 on Android...  moreAwesome!  I did some testing with the new app and I'm able to control the SBrick from far distances 25-50ft without losing connectivity or crashing the app with over 30 minutes of testing.  I am running a Samsung Galaxy S6 on Android 5.1.1 with v4.4 of the firmware on the SBrick.  Great job!
    I saw this previously posted, but I am unable to use my SBrick social login as well.  Using guest only allows the simple control and wasn't able to access custom profiles I created with the previous version of the app.  I also wasn't sure if we needed to update the firmware on the SBrick.  Let us know when we can login to access the profile piece.
    Thanks again for letting us run the beta!  less

    Hi,
    First, let me say that you guys have a great innovative product with SBrick!

    Hi,
    First, let me say that you guys have a great innovative product with SBrick! 
    I have been testing the last week with SBrick.  I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 with Android 5.1.1 and the SBrick at firmware 4.4.  The only thing I noticed is that every so often, regardless of distance the communication is dropped and most of the time this locks the app.  I tried both the SBrick 1.7 app and the SimpleControl available from Google store with the same result.  Just today, I downloaded the SimpleControl posted in the forum and this no longer happens!
    Look forward to the next version of SBrick for Android.  Any idea on a next version that brings the functionality available on iOS to Android and this fix?
    Thanks - keep up the good work you guys!  less
