SBrick Android App in the forum
Support
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 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...

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...
