Different App-ID

Former Member
Former Member over 8 years ago
Hi,

I developed a watchface with Eclipse using the IQ Connect plugin. Since I've updated the SDK, the App-ID has changed and I cannot update the watchface because of it. Could you tell me what the app-id is so I can alter the manifest.xml ?

This is the watchface.

Kind regards,

    Updating the SDK doesn't change the app id. It's in the manifest.xml file for your project. Maybe go back and look at an old backup to see what it was?

    Also, I think it may be that in the store, each app you submit now has to have a unique ID. One app, one ID. You always use the same one for a given app, but it can't be the same as another app uses.
    What does the message you see actually say?

    Or are you talking about the signing key (which could change if you generated a new one when you updated the SDK)? Once you have a key, you want to have a copy in a safe place, and always use the same one. Garmin would only see the "public key" of your key, and have no way to get the original back. Again, maybe in an old backup?

    app-id not signing key

    No. I'm talking about the APP id that is in the manifest.xml file
    The signing key is not the problem.

    So I have to find a way to retrieve the app-id from the watch that was uploaded.
    Earlier backups have the same app-id so no luck there.

    I edited my last post, but maybe after you saw it. Do you use a unique appId for each app? The app store may be blocking two different apps with the same ID these days.

    I'm going to update this post too...

    Do you have an old .iq file for a version you could upload? It's a .zip format and you can look at the manifest,xml file in it.

    App-id is generated by the program so unique for every watchface/widget/...
    The error message I get when trying to upload the updated watchface is that the app-id is different from the one I've uploaded before.
    Although I didn't change it to my knowledge.

    You probably want to email [email][email protected][/email], and include what you think the appID is.

    This is absolutely correct. We would be happy to try and help you recover your app ID. Please email us at [email][email protected][/email] with a link to your app in the app store.

    Thank you,

    Hi Coleman,

    Problem resolved. Do I just look at the IQ file for the app-id or how did you find this ?

    Thanks again.

    The IQ file can be opened just like a regular zipped directory. Inside there is a manifest that lists the App ID. On the admin side I have access to the IQ file you uploaded originally and I was able to retrieve the info from there.

    Thanks,
