Vivoactive v3.20 and ConnectIq SDK 1.1.4 memory leak problem?

Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi all, Garmin,
Yesterday I have released my App on the Store to add Vivoactive support (compiled with SDK 1.1.4)

In the simulator the app runs like all others watches but a user tell me that the App crashes somewhere on his vivoactive (firmware v3.20).

On the Vivoactive firmware release note I read a compatibility for SDK 1.1.2 added on v3.00 but no updates on v3.10 and v3.20 regarding compatibility for SDK 1.1.4.

What's the situation?
Do I have to drop Vivoactive support?

Thanks in advance

Hi Brandon,
I am sorry but I am not able to reproduce it because I don't own an actual vivoactive watch and the simulator works fine.

What I got from my App users (WatchOut! app) is that users get a crash just before entering a text with a TextPicker.

This afternoon I updated the App on the store dropping Vivoactive compatibility. Please tell me if you need the previous .iq file

Thanks!!!

forgot to say, reproduce the crash is simple it happens during the init fase of the App just before the user is prompted to enter the watch serial number.

The vivoactive does not support the TextPicker. Trying to use one will always cause a crash on the VA. It's not listed as a supported device in the CIQ documentation.

that's the problem! thank you jim_m_58!

are there other ways to input a string on the vivoactive watch?

@Brandon will TextPicker be supported in the future?

Thanks Jim--that definitely explains the issue.

The native text picker won't be supported on vivoactive as far as I know. That's a product-level decision, and is excluded from the vivoactive firmware, so that makes it unavailable to Connect IQ.

The good news is that we have a generic picker coming in the 1.2.0 SDK that you can adapt as a text picker on the vivoactive.

Nice! ETA?
