    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:

    Sometimes it will lose connection and the app says "brick is powered off or out or range" when it isn't. Need to restart app or BT on/off to repair connection.
    Light button does not work, only blinks once when turned "off" No respons when turned on.
    M-motors will give humming sound in "idle" The L-motor does not have this nor the servo.
    If I engage the steering control first, the accelerate slider becomes unresponsive if used simultanously . First using the accel, does allow using both at the same time.
    The B and C channel are switched in the SBrick port tester
    At maximum output, the port tester reverts to idle power which is very annoying.
    Going through MyMOC-> Linked Bricks -> Port tester (arrow to the right) will often crash the system. Going first through "Manage bricks" and the to the port tester this error does not occur and...    less

    Tamas,
    Version 1.5 works like a charm. Connecting is really fast. Sudden disconnects/loss of control happen sometimes, but the app will recover from them and reconnect really fast (0,1 to 1 sec)

    Tamas,
    First respons on the emergency app version 1.3:
    Works like a charm, no latency, no humming sound, no occurence of motors getting stuck or not gearing back to idle position, no need to reset app or brick. There are still some disconnects present (but much less as the full app), but the app will recover from that by reconnecting after a while (reconnection can however take 30+ seconds)
    Also reconnects nicely if power is cut temporarily from the Brick or the phonescreen is turned "off" for a moment
    In short, this is exactly what you would expect as minimum basic functionality of any usefull app.

    All,
    My short summary after testing the new akp and profile designer.
    Xiaomi Mi2S on Android 4.4.4 (Miui 6)

    Profile designer works best under chrome. Else it gets stuck in "saving" mode when you want to save the profile. In a complex profile with background etc also Chrome got stuck
    When you select your profile in the market, it gets no checkmark showing it was downloaded. Only when you exit it briefly shows the checkmark
    Horizonal sliders are compressed into 4:3 ratio when designed for and shows on a 1280x720 (16:9) screen. This makes them look weird. Light and buttons are shown correctly. The new offical profiles (like the hand-drawn driving controls) also has this.
    The light will go on, but never off, as mentioned in many previous posts.
    The M-motor will not return to "off" mode, but keep poducing a humming sound which means that on idle position still some power is being applied.
    The 0.41 app with profile designer still break connection a random moments. Reset of the app, the brick and the BT...    less

    Frederic,
    Where did you find this dropbox link? I have no clue where to find it, and also no update in the android app-store.
    As many I am also getting kind of frustrated by the Vengit not being able to meet their own promises....

    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.

Light button does not work, only blinks once when turned "off" No respons when turned on. M-motors will give humming sound in "idle" The L-motor does not have this nor the servo.

Going through MyMOC-> Linked Bricks -> Port tester (arrow to the right) will often crash the system. Going first through "Manage bricks" and the to the port tester this error does not occur and also fixes the crash for going the other route.... Tested on Xiaomi Mi2S Miui 6 (Android 4.4.4) On my Samsung SM-P600 (note 10.1) I also noticed the following aspects: The new profiles were not available (can be due to aspect ration differences) The joystick controls do not work at all Changing profiles will plot the changed profile over the previous one, even after killing the app. First I had to delete all profile and then add a new oen to repair. In the "Gamepad with buttons" profile, the steering control become unresponsive if the accel is engaged first, so opposite error as seen in the other profile. So clear improvements, but not there yet... Martijn Nab 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...

    All, My short summary after testing the new akp and profile designer. Xiaomi Mi2S on Android 4.4.4 (Miui 6) Profile designer works best under chrome. Else it gets stuck in "saving" mode when you want to save the profile. In a complex profile with background etc also Chrome got stuck When you select your profile in the market, it gets no checkmark showing it was downloaded. Only when you exit it briefly shows the checkmark Horizonal sliders are compressed into 4:3 ratio when designed for and shows on a 1280x720 (16:9) screen. This makes them look weird. Light and buttons are shown correctly. The new offical profiles (like the hand-drawn driving controls) also has this. The light will go on, but never off, as mentioned in many previous posts. The M-motor will not return to "off" mode, but keep poducing a humming sound which means that on idle position still some power is being applied. The 0.41 app with profile designer still break connection a random moments. Reset of the app, the brick and the BT connection are then required to find the brick again   So conclusion: You guys added another set of unreliable tools with new failure modes like the motors not stopping completely to a basic functionality that is not at all improving by any serious amount. Guys, stop this BS and get the basic app working. The fact that you cannot get a stable connection between the app and the brick is getting quite embarassing!
